"How? What is that girl's character? As soon as Mrs. Cheng heard Cheng Juewen mention the girl who was married to her, she couldn't care about the previous things, how could she not be the same Qingyuan had a good life, and when she mentioned that girl, she was not so embarrassed and embarrassed in her heart, and she listened to the important things first.

"You listen to me first, what are you doing nonsense, the grandchildren of the Duke of Qi are from the sea, and the girl who is married to Qingyuan is the only granddaughter from the sea, you can see that she is very favored in the Duke of Qi, and she has been raised by the old lady of the Duke of Qi since she was a child, you should have seen the old Duchess of the country, the temperament of the whole body is not comparable to ordinary people, where can that Miss Liu be worse? Among the three daughters-in-law of the Duchess of Lao Guo, only the girl's mother is from Gaomen, her maternal ancestor is the Marquis of Wenyuan's Mansion, and I am the only one in the Jin Kingdom who has the merit of being a Marquis of Wen, such a girl, where can you compare with that affection? Cheng Juewen was interrupted by Mrs. Cheng, she was very unhappy, and she said a few words before Mrs. Cheng gave up.

After hearing this, Mrs. Cheng thought about it, isn't such a girl even if she is carrying a lantern and can't find it? Literati and writers always admire the Marquis of Wenyuan's mansion, including Zhao Yan, the wife of Cheng, who is the son of Wen*, and she can be regarded as recognizing Liu Haiyun, which is also good.

"Also, the situation is getting worse and worse, marrying the Duke of Qi is only good for Qingyuan, and the willingness of the Duke of Qi should also be optimistic about the situation." Although Cheng Juewen is not a scholar, he is just a teacher and a reader, but the situation is still very thorough, and the situation of Jin Guo will be chaotic sooner or later, even if there are students who are officials in the Manchu Dynasty, but these students are mostly poor, and they are just gadgets before those powerful people, and the family must have someone to rely on in order to escape the fire of the troubled times unharmed.

Mrs. Cheng and Cheng Juewen have lived together for so many years, where can she still not understand the emotional changes in him, she realized that this time she was really wrong, and almost ruined her father-in-law's hard work, isn't the situation the current situation? If it's really bad, it's not the powerless who suffer.

"Husband...... I ......"

"Okay, it's all over, I understand your thoughts, you're just too soft-hearted, you don't want to do that, I still have something here, you go to sleep first, I'll be in the study for one night tonight, you don't have to wait for me." Cheng Juewen didn't let Mrs. Cheng say those sad words, so he had to go to the study to deal with the mess that Mrs. Cheng made.

"Qingyuan, what are you doing standing stupidly, open the door." Cheng Juewen regained his former anger towards Cheng Qingyuan, but he could vaguely detect a trace of anger.

"Oh, yes, father."

Cheng Qingyuan has been standing quietly when Cheng Juewen and Mrs. Cheng are arguing, his elders have conflicts because of their own affairs, he can only hold his breath and reduce his sense of existence, although he wants his father to solve this matter, but he doesn't want his mother to be sad because of this matter.

"The cold is getting heavier, you ...... You cover a little more life, be careful of catching a cold. Cheng Juewen still felt sorry for his wife, thinking that his previous words were too heavy, and he was full of apologies in his heart, so when he left, he turned around and reminded Mrs. Cheng to pay attention to her body.

said that after finishing Juewen, he turned around and left, leaving Mrs. Cheng alone to think about it, and don't be impulsive and soft-hearted when she encounters such a thing in the future.

Cheng Qingyuan didn't dare to speak behind his father, he knew that his father was dissatisfied with him, but what could he do, he couldn't disobey his mother, even if he was reluctant, he could only comply.

"I rushed over from your grandfather's side, your grandfather said that you are very happy about this family matter, and thought of coming over to tell you that I have already decided this matter with the second master of the Qi State Mansion, but I didn't expect to hear the things that your mother and son decided privately, is it that if I didn't hear this today, you will really come to me tomorrow?" Cheng Juewen said as he walked, and asked Cheng Qingyuan with a sharp look in his eyes.

"Father, Qingyuan didn't want to see his mother sad and indifferent, Qingyuan didn't think about it so much, looking at his mother crying bitterly, Qingyuan's heart ached faintly, Qingyuan reluctantly agreed to his mother, shouldn't he be filial to a son?" Cheng Qingyuan is also painful in his heart, but he must do this for the son of man, otherwise how can he be worthy of being the son of man.

"You did what your mother said? Qingyuan, your heart is too soft, you are also a person who is about to get married, and my father doesn't want to accuse you too much, but your temperament should indeed change, and the responsibility you will bear in the future is the rise and fall of the entire Chengfu, your so-called filial piety is just foolishness, I want a dignified and unflinching son, do you think you are? Jin Guo will be in chaos one day after all, the people of the entire Jin Country can't avoid it, you can't lack the responsibility that a man should have, indecision will only mistake yourself, what does your mother know as a woman? Whatever it is, you have to make your own decisions, I'll just say that, and you can slowly understand the rest yourself. Cheng Juewen persuaded Cheng Qingyuan earnestly, he couldn't let this only son continue to be indecisive, the sky in Handu was gradually changing, and the Cheng family had to become more tough in order not to be forced by the situation.

"But, father, Qingyuan understands, Qingyuan will slowly change, and one day Qingyuan will definitely be able to shoulder the responsibility of the entire Chengfu and Qingyun Academy." Cheng Qingyuan is a smart person, where can he not understand Cheng Juewen's extraneous voice, he is also deeply aware of his shortcomings, but it is difficult to overcome for a while.

The father and son of the Cheng family then walked wordlessly all the way to Cheng Juewen's study, and Cheng Juewen said: "Those friends of Mo Chang are also people who can be made, if you fall in love with them, try to make friends, although Mo Chang, the child, has no feeling for books at all, but his interpersonal relationships are handled very well, and there are definitely many more friends in Handu than you." ”

"Yes, father, Qingyuan went to the banquet with Brother Chang this time, and what he saw and heard has also increased, and some people are indeed not what they are rumored and imagined, Qingyuan is also very happy to meet them, please rest assured father, Qingyuan has firmly remembered your explanation, and there will be measure." Cheng Qingyuan's impression of Liu Haihua is still good, and he is willing to associate with them, and even become close friends, after all, it is not easy to meet such a desirable friend.

Cheng Qingyuan doesn't have many friends, except for his like-minded classmates in the academy, there are only children like Li Mochang who grew up with a bare ass since childhood, and those children who have become fathers and friends, there is no one else, this time he was pestered by Li Mochang to go to a friend party, and he really had a few more like-minded friends who did not intersect, which made Cheng Qingyuan both excited and happy, and more and more looking forward to the next reunion.

"A person's surface cannot represent his heart, the more absurd a person is, the more likely he is to hide a fiery heart, and people's eyes cannot see through people's hearts, your so-called rumors and imaginations are just some empty things, what is worthy of trust? I heard that you saw the Duke of Qi today, as well as the princes of the Marquis of Wu'an, the Mansion of the Eldest Princess of Jinghe and the Bo Mansion of Anyang? When Cheng Juewen went to the Siwu Courtyard to ask the old man for peace, he heard the old man mention it slightly, so he secretly wrote it down, and waited to ask Cheng Qingyuan at this time, after all, Qingyuan is not deeply involved in the world, and he still needs to give him a hint.

The two had already entered the study, Cheng Juewen sat in front of the chair of his bookcase, Cheng Qingyuan was very skillful and put the ginseng tea that had already been prepared by the subordinates in front of Cheng Juewen and said: "Father, this is more exposed, and the cold on the body is also a little heavier, you can drink a sip of ginseng tea to warm up your body." ”

Seeing that Cheng Juewen took a sip of ginseng tea, he said unhurriedly: "I saw these sons tonight, they are all very good, Qingyuan thinks that they can have a deep friendship, after all, they are Brother Chang's best friends for many years, and their heart and character are worth befriending, Qingyuan and they have a good conversation." ”

"Have you had a good conversation? It is also a fortunate thing, not the snobbery of the father, among them is either the royal relatives or the hairpins, there is only benefit to your future and no harm, as far as my father knows, Liu Haihua seems to be a gentleman, but in fact he is a big-minded person, you and he are now considered in-laws, and you can interact with him more in the future, one day you will have to choose a person and a road, and we have now chosen the road, the general trend of the world, the division of a long time must be together, a long time must be divided, such a divided situation has been three hundred years, all parties are ready to move, The Duke of Qi Mansion will never be without any preparation, it seems that the old Duke of Qi has gone west, and the entire Duke of Qi is under the control of the current Duke of Qi Liu Cong, but the old Duke is still alive, the only person she is eyeing is Liu Haihua, you can interact with him more, we can only follow the footsteps of the Duke of Qi Mansion closely, you can also contact your future brother-in-law, I heard that Liu Haihua is the most fond of Liu Haiyun's sister, you have to seize the opportunity. ”

Cheng Qingyuan's family affairs have been discussed by Old Man Cheng and Cheng Juewen for many years, and he has only recently made up his mind, otherwise how could he have mentioned this past to Liu Ren with the death of the old grandfather by being drunk, so many years, why should he still bother to think about it, how many ups and downs has Old Man Cheng seen, how could he not see through this small change in Jin Guo, every time it comes to such a moment, the grass on the wall has no good end, and the family can only gamble.

"Qingyuan knows, it's just ...... Is the situation really so impatient? You need to choose so early, in case you ...... in the future, "Cheng Qingyuan is naturally different from that kind of thing, but no one can predict the future, and who can say it clearly in the future, and it doesn't have to be so bad.

Cheng Juewen didn't want to be peaceful and prosperous, why didn't he want to wait and see the situation, but the old man could only do what he ordered, after all, he was still young and didn't have the same experience as the old man, and the old man had such persistence, he must have noticed something and made such a decision.

"Your grandfather's arrangement, there will be nothing wrong, two days later, my father will ask a matchmaker to go to the Mansion of Qi to propose marriage, and your marriage will be done as soon as possible, the saint seems to have the idea of a draft again, Liu Erye somehow got the news, and today he asked his father again, and he agreed directly." Cheng Juewen told the agreement between himself and Liu Ren, so that Cheng Qingyuan had a bottom in his heart, listening to the old man's meaning, the child was satisfied with this marriage, and since he was satisfied, there was no doubt.

Sure enough, when Cheng Qingyuan heard that the relationship between himself and Liu Haiyun was completely settled, he was just about to come to the door to propose marriage, and he felt a little uncomfortable, and the tips of his ears were slightly red like cherries, he was very happy in his heart, but he still maintained a consistent calmness in front of his father.

"Marriage matters, parents' orders, matchmakers' words, Qingyuan is all up to his father." Cheng Qingyuan can spend his life with the woman he is willing to care for is his greatest desire, and now his relationship with Liu Haiyun is a certainty, as long as he gets married as soon as possible, there is no threat.

"Really? Then for the father, go and discuss with Liu Erye, or should this family matter be forgotten? Anyway, you still have a cousin waiting for you wholeheartedly, how about it? Cheng Juewen felt that he needed to remind Qingyuan that his attitude towards love should be in moderation, he is also a person who has a marriage contract now, and his brothers and sisters still have something to avoid, let alone cousins, and this love will never be so simple and kind, living in that environment, even if it has not deteriorated, he can't take that risk.

Cheng Qingyuan said anxiously: "Father, I have no contact with my cousin, I haven't seen her in the past two years, how can I have such a thought, Qingyuan remembers in his heart the family rules of Chengfu and never dares to forget, you can rest assured, Qingyuan will not live up to his wife, my cousin's matter is just my mother's wishful thinking, Qingyuan never has such an idea, what about kissing and kissing and childhood sweethearts, it is not worth a fate in Qingyuan's heart." ”

"It's good if you know, I will continue to persuade your mother, she is not an unreasonable person, but her heart is too soft, you just have to prepare to marry Miss Liu, you don't have to care where your aunt is, my father will handle it, I have endured them for so many years, and I still haven't grown up, I don't know what to do, in this case, I have nothing to think about, calculated on the head of my Chengfu, can I still watch it?" Cheng Juewen is determined to clean up the Xu family, although his brother-in-law is also a small Beijing official, but he has a way to clean him up with people, a random case in Dali Temple is enough to make them unbearable, not to mention other things, he will definitely not leave them any face this time.

"Yes, Qingyuan will never interfere, they deserve it, the father said that the son must not be soft-hearted, and the son will never do it again." Cheng Qingyuan now knows that his marriage has come true, the so-called starting a family, this family is about to begin, the next thing is to start a business, become a family ancestral training, the children of the Cheng family are not allowed to enter the office, it is definitely impossible for him to take the road of the imperial examination to enter the official career, then he can only do his best to protect what he loves, all of them.

In the Cheng Mansion, Cheng Qingyuan's father and son talked all night, and the study was flickering with a slight blue light all night.

The two Wu Chengxu brothers have just arrived in front of Anchengbo's Mansion, and Chengchenglou and Chengfu are closer to Tianxialou, Anchengbo's Mansion has long since declined, and this Jinxiu Street is basically a lonely aristocrat, which also leads to not much population in this place, and compared with the section of Tianxialou, it is also slightly colder.

"Cousin, you go in first, my brother is watching you here, my brother will leave after half an hour, if there is anything, you can directly arrange for the hoe medicine around you to come to me, and my brother will know that something happened, can you remember?" Wu Chengxu explained that Luo Kun would accompany him here, and also told him not to be afraid, and his voice was particularly calming.

Wu Chengxu didn't want to enter the Ancheng Mansion, and he didn't want to see the disgusting face of the old witch of Mrs. Luo, when he was a child, he couldn't understand the old witch's tone and disgusted look, when he was sensible, Wu Chengxu was very displeased with this old witch, there was no urgent matter, he would never step into such a dirty, smoky place.

"Cousin, you don't have to wait for me, it's such a cold day, what if you catch a cold, Luo Kun will take care of and protect herself, cousin, don't worry." Luo Kun is a very painful boy, he doesn't want his cousin to worry about himself in the bleak autumn wind, even in the carriage, it is cold, he hid in his cousin's cloak all the way, it has been very warm, as soon as he got out of the carriage, he knew what kind of weather it was.

"Go ahead, my cousin is used to it, if I don't leave at that moment, my cousin will feel uneasy." No matter when, from the time when Wu Chengxu was sensible, as long as he personally sent Luo Kun back to his house, he would wait outside Anchengbo's Mansion for half an hour, until he was sure that he was fine, and then he left quietly, this has been a habit for many years, and Wu Chengxu of Anchengbo's Mansion has not entered for ten years, even if every time he is safe and sound, he is not at ease.

Luo Kun got Wu Chengxu's orders, his words did not work in front of his cousin, he felt that only by entering the house quickly, his cousin would not stay in the cold for so long, so he did not dare to delay for a moment to go to the house, although he was still very worried in his heart, but he did not have the fear of the past, he knew that he had a cousin who was still silently protecting himself, and his cousin would not allow others to hurt him, and his walking speed was a little faster.

He walked through the long corridor as before, first went to Mrs. Luo's Fushou Hall to say goodbye, and then went back to his mother to tell his mother about his grandmother's affairs and the brothers who he had met with his cousin tonight, and he felt that if his mother knew about such things, she would be very happy, and she must have wanted to know about her grandfather and grandmother, and she had done these things. He went back to his yard to rest.

As soon as he walked into Fushoutang, Luo Kun felt countless pairs of fiery eyes, he didn't know why there were so many people in his grandmother's heart, it seemed that today was not an important day, Luo Kun felt a strong ridicule and schadenfreude eyes, and followed that direction to find out that it was his second brother, today he was taught a lot of things by Liu Haihua, and he naturally understood that this was not the envious look that his grandmother said, but still jealous.

"Greetings to grandmother!" At this time, Luo Kun also knew that they were waiting for him deliberately, and he had a little fear in his heart, and he also pretended to kowtow to Mrs. Guo respectfully, not daring to make the slightest mistake, he remembered the punishment they had given him before, and his heart couldn't help but tremble, even more chill than he felt when he just got out of the carriage.

"Yo, Kun'er still remembers my grandmother, I thought you were already called Wu Kun, and I have long forgotten which side the gate of our Ancheng Bofu is open towards, but it is really filial." Old Lady Luo said something that Luo Kun didn't know what he meant, he knew that their grandmother was angry again, but why was she angry, Luo Kun had all kinds of questions in her heart, but she didn't dare to ask, she only dared to keep it in her heart quietly, and asked Brother Liu Haihua in the future. Brother Haihua said that no matter what, just look for him, he is so good to himself, he should explain to himself why.

Luo Kun didn't know what it meant, and said straightforwardly: "Grandmother, of course Luo Kun thinks about you, my grandmother and cousin let me stay for a few more days, but I thought that my grandmother should miss me, so I made an appointment with my cousin next time, Luo Kun doesn't miss her grandmother all the time, and my grandmother must also think about Luo Kun." ”

After listening to Luo Kun's words, the boy who had looked at Luo Kun with mocking eyes before laughed secretly in his heart, what an idiot, and dared to take the name of his eldest son, his mother said, if it weren't for this fool, he would be the master of the entire Bofu, he would be the master of the entire Bofu, he wanted to do whatever he wanted, it was all this fool who stood in his way, he sometimes wanted to kill this fool directly, he didn't want to wait for his grandmother to say it for so long.

He remembered that his grandmother had said that as long as Luo Kun was a fool for a day. There is no other way than to raise him disabled, if he doesn't do this, with Luo Kun's powerful foreign family, it is absolutely impossible for him to inherit the opportunity of Bofu again, and he must not let Luo Kun get this opportunity.

"Luo Kun, why did you go home so late? Do you know that your grandmother heard that you were going home today, did you deliberately want to toss your grandmother to stay up all night and be sad? The boy who laughed at Luo Kun said mercilessly, that boy is the second son of Ancheng Bofu, the son of a wife who is only a month younger than Luo Kun, he is already very disgusted with Luo Kun, so naturally he will not let him go if he has the opportunity, anyway, his grandmother will definitely help him.

"My cousin came home late, what does it have to do with you, a lowly concubine, Mrs. Luo, has the Ancheng Bofu fallen to the point of no distinction between respect and inferiority?" Wu Chengxu's words have always been very poisonous, not to mention that these people are people who want to bully his aunt and cousin, so he will not have any scruples and mercy.
