Chapter 320: Compromise
As the saying goes, a thousand wear it, and a sycophant doesn't wear it.
What's more, Zhou Shaojin said sincerely.
Mrs. Guo couldn't help laughing and said, "When I was young, I could afford your words. It's just that when the old lady was there, I often thought that I liked to cause trouble and meddle in things, and I had a big quarrel with the old lady about it. Now that I'm old, my spirit is not good, and I often lose everything when I do things, and I can't manage it if I want to, and I don't bother to take care of it. It can be seen that everything in this world is at one time and another. In the past, I always felt that it was a big deal, but when I look back in a few years, it has come. Looking back in a dozen years, it will be nothing more than that. Therefore, this person should relax his heart and live happily. ”
Zhou Shaojin felt that what Mrs. Guo said was very reasonable.
In her previous life, she had experienced so many things and always wanted to die.
But later, I was afraid that my sister would be sad and that my sister would bear notoriety, so she slowly stood up and survived, and lived for more than ten years.
She said a few words with Mrs. Guo, and Mrs. Guo urged her to go about her own business: "...... The girl made such a fuss, at this time, she must want to find her own person to talk to her heart, you go to accompany her, so as to calm her heart, don't always jump around so headlessly. This time it was her luck, but this person can't always rely on luck. You bring me to her as well. It's up to her to hear it or not. ”
The old lady is really a typical cold-faced and hot-hearted.
Zhou Shaojin's heart was warm, and he couldn't help but get close to the old lady, hugged the old lady's arm and said softly, "I'll come when I go." ”
The old lady is used to being strong, she has no sons, although her three granddaughters all grew up under her knees, Cheng Zheng is solemn, Cheng Xiao is arrogant, Cheng Sheng is delicate, and no one is as simple but pitiful as Zhou Shaojin. couldn't help touching her head and asked Mama Lu to send her out.
Mama Lu looked at the smile on Zhou Shaojin's face for two more points.
When there is a guest in the house, the woman who presides over the feeding of the house is qualified to let her send it off. Miss Second Watch just went out to see Miss Ji, so she was sent. In the past, Miss Zheng had such treatment, and now Miss Second Table has also caught up with Miss Zheng.
She personally opened the curtain for Zhou Shaojin.
Zhou Shaojin didn't care.
She was full of Cheng Ji's affairs in her heart.
Do you want to tell her about Li Jing's plan?
Will she be unable to sink and expose her stuffing after she knows it?
If she continues to be treated for this illness, and Li Jing keeps her in Jiuru Lane to recuperate, will it delay the time and let Cheng Ji make a marriage appointment with the son of the prefect?
Wan must have made a family affair, how can Li Jing untie this knot?
Zhou Shaojin felt a dull pain in his temples. I just hope that Cheng Chi will come back soon.
Uncle Chi is back, so she doesn't have to worry about this matter!
The maid on duty at the door lifted the curtain and served her into the three-room resting room.
The wing room is three wide, one bright and two dark. On one side lived Li Lao'an, on the other side lived Cheng Ji and Jiang, because of the children of the hospital, Cheng Lu rested elsewhere.
When Zhou Shaojin entered, Cheng Lu and Cheng Ji had just finished arguing, he was sitting on the Taishi chair in front of the middle hall with iron and blue, and Jiang was sitting opposite him with red eyes. Seeing Zhou Shaojin, Cheng Lu nodded at her reluctantly, and Jiang Shi said a little uncomfortably: "Thank you for coming to see her!" The girl is a little bad, just fell asleep ......"
It actually means to be a guest.
Zhou Shaojin's face turned red.
Cheng Lu didn't make a sound.
Maybe I'm afraid that Cheng Ji will say something that makes them feel embarrassed as if pouring beans on a bamboo tube in front of her?
If it was usual, Zhou Shaojin would definitely turn around and leave, but thinking of Li Jing's entrustment, she cheekily stayed where she was, and said solemnly: "Since Cousin Ji is asleep, I won't see her." I wonder what happened to Cousin Kasa's injuries? Do you need to continue to use Master Shi Hui's medicine? ”
These words are very meaningful.
Cheng Lu and Jiang both guessed that Mrs. Guo asked her to ask.
Jiang said: "The girl is fine." Master Shi Hui came to see it just now, and prescribed another pair of medicines, saying that it would be good to take this medicine. Your Uncle Lu is about to discuss with the old lady and set off for Jiuru Lane the day after tomorrow. ”
That's it!
Zhou Shaojin breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Then I'll go back first!" ”
Who knew that as soon as her words fell, Cheng Ji's voice came from the house: "Shaojin, I'm already awake!" Will you come in and talk to me? He added, "Shao Jin and I are sisters and sisters, and we live in another courtyard, and we can't hide it for a while, are you so interesting?" ”
"You ......" Jiang was about to jump up when he heard this, but was grabbed by Cheng Lu and said, "You don't say a word!" ”
Jiang Shi angrily turned his head away.
Cheng Ji lay quietly on the bed, his face was yellow, and he looked very haggard.
She smiled bitterly and turned her head to Zhou Shaojin and said, "You must think I'm stupid, right?" I didn't think I'd do something like this? But the thought of me marrying someone else and living with someone else is that I can't stay for a quarter of an hour. Even if I am asked to go up the sword mountain and down the sea of fire, I am willing to ......"
Zhou Shaojin walked over slowly, sat on the brocade pestle next to the bed, and instructed the little maid serving next to her to order a bowl of cold mung bean paste for her to come in, and said, "...... It's so hot! ”
It's just to go to the door and pass the word.
The little maid did not doubt him, and smiled and responded.
Zhou Shaojin said anxiously: "Li Jing wants to take you away, and I'm afraid that your illness will have to be relieved of Hui's medicine, you can find a way to get the medicine, and I'll inform Li Jing." ”
Cheng Ji's eyes were filled with tears, and he held Zhou Shaojin's hand tightly, and said, "Shaojin, I will be grateful to you all my life!" ”
Zhou Shaojin smiled slightly, but still couldn't help but say, "Is it worth it?" ”
"It's worth it!" Cheng Ji said, the original yellow face was as radiant as if it had been coated with a layer of glaze, "Even if I am ruthlessly abandoned in the future, I also know that he treats me sincerely at this time." ”
Zhou Shaojin has never been so enthusiastic in his two lives.
Or rather, there is no such bold idea.
She remembered Hotaru's words again.
Is it to live a life pretending to be a good name, or is it to live freely according to one's heart......
Zhou Shaojin began to be in a trance again.
The little maid who went to pass the word came back, and she smiled and said, "Miss Second Cousin, the mung bean paste will arrive soon." ”
Zhou Shaojin smiled: "I almost forgot, the old lady once instructed me not to eat cold things in the summer, or forget it?" ”
She didn't want to stay in Cheng Ji's house for long.
Presumably, Li Jing will do it as soon as she gets the news, she has been here for a long time, and she will inevitably be suspected by the Jiang family afterwards.
Jiang Shi suspected that she was not afraid, she was afraid that she would affect the long room.
Zhou Shaojin got up and said goodbye.
Cheng Ji took her hand and begged her: "You help me take care of Cuihuan!" ”
She is still sick in bed, it would be good for Li Jing to get her hands, and it is impossible to bring Cuihuan again.
And Zhou Shaojin is not a poor relative living in the Cheng family, she has the servants of the Zhou family by her side, but she can protect Cuihuan better.
Zhou Shaojin nodded and went back to the room where she and Mrs. Guo stayed.
Mrs. Guo was talking to Mrs. Guan: "...... No matter what happens to the girl, I'm ready to leave for the meeting later. They are so noisy all day long, I have a headache. ”
Mrs. Guan was also trying to get out, but Mrs. Guo's words hit her heart, and she hurriedly said, "I'll go back with you!" ”
Mrs. Guo bowed her head.
Zhou Shaojin stepped forward to salute Mrs. Guan.
Mrs. Guo said, "You came just in time." I've told the maids to go down and pack their bags. You go to the third room again and say goodbye to them on my behalf. ”
In this way, Sanfang felt even more that Zhou Shaojin was entrusted by Mrs. Guo to ask about Cheng Ji's condition.
Zhou Shaojin's eyes were slightly astringent, and he said "yes" softly and went to the third room.
The people in the third room really thought so.
When Zhou Shaojin and the others cleaned up, Cheng Lu and Jiang personally came to see off Mrs. Guo and the others.
Mrs. Guo didn't say much, and went straight to the carriage.
Zhou Shaojin went home with Mrs. Guo and Mrs. Guan.
In the afternoon of the next day, Cheng Lu was pale, his legs and feet were weak, and he broke into the Hanbi Mountain House and knelt in front of Mrs. Guo: "Auntie, please let Zichuan come back quickly!" Cheng Ji is gone! Li Jing is also gone! It must have been Li Jing's disciple who tricked Cheng Ji to go. This voice can neither be announced nor reported to the official, I can only come to Zichuan. He has been in charge of the housekeeping in the past few years, and he is familiar with all the three teachings and nine streams, and we will pay for the three rooms, can you ask Zichuan to help me find Cheng Ji back. I only have one daughter......"
Old Madam Guo glanced at Zhou Shaojin, who looked calm, and said, "Hurry up." I'll let Shiro deliver the letter! ”
Cheng Lu nodded, but he didn't stand up for a long time, but it was Mama Lu who helped him, and he stumbled out of the upper room.
Mrs. Guo sighed: "Pity the hearts of parents all over the world!" Let Biyu take her own pair of cards and ask the steward of the outer courtyard to arrange for someone to send a letter to Cheng Chi.
What people never expected was that the next day, Li Jing actually invited a matchmaker to propose to Cheng Ji.
The courtesy attitude of the matchmaker and the richness of the dowry took out surprised the three rooms, who have always been rich.
Jiang was furious, and stood up to blast the matchmaker out.
Cheng Lu left the matchmaker with a calm face, and took Li Jing's Geng sticker, and said to the matchmaker: "If you want to marry our girl, let him find the right wild goose to make a dowry." ”
At this time, geese are becoming scarcer, and geese are used instead.
The matchmaker was overjoyed.
Uncle Li once said that no matter whether the marriage is successful or not, as long as she makes such a trip, she will reward her with ten taels of silver.
Jiang can't.
As soon as the matchmaker left, he made a fuss with Cheng Lu.
Cheng Lu said with red eyes: "Then what do you want?" Do you want to let the girl go and make a concubine for that boy? ”
Jiang Shi was stunned.
Li Lao'an, who has always been indifferent, rushed over when he heard the news, and when he saw Jiang's appearance, he smiled coldly, and said in a weird manner: "Do you dislike Li Jing or dislike his background?" ”
Cheng Lu glanced over with a cold eye.
Jiang shivered.
Know that the big thing is gone.
The reason for her opposition has always been Li Jing's background. But Li Jing is the nephew of his mother-in-law's mother-in-law. Doesn't saying that the nephews and grandnephews of the mother-in-law's mother-in-law are not good?
She sat down on the Taishi's chair in a dejected manner, feeling that she had raised a daughter for nothing.
In the afternoon of the same day, Li Jing sent a pair of geese over.
Three days later, the two families made a marriage contract, and they were sent back.
