Chapter 20: Becoming a Wicked Man

After sending off Mrs. Wei, Mrs. Cheng also returned to her yard. Mrs. Cheng got the news and came over early to inquire.

"Mother, what did Old Lady Wei say? Do you agree to cancel Jin'er's engagement to his grandchild? ”

Old Madam Cheng nodded, "After today's events, the paper marriage contract should be considered invalid." Won't mention it again. ”

"Amitabha, Amitabha! That's great! Mother is so powerful, as soon as you came out, you settled the matter, and the daughter-in-law is so happy! ”

Mrs. Cheng understood her heart as a mother, so she was happy. To be honest, even she herself was sweating at the time!

In any case, the cancellation of the bad marriage is a joy. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were chatting here, and a maid came over to spread the word, saying that the guy from Zuixianglou had come to deliver food again! When Mrs. Cheng heard this, she directly asked people to put it in the courtyard here.

"You tell Jin'er to come over too, and when the boss comes back, our family can eat together in my yard!"

"Whoa!"

There is no need to be in-laws with the Wei family, and she can often eat the meals of Zuixianglou, Mrs. Cheng is not to mention how satisfied she is, she understands that this is all stained with her mother-in-law's light, and she is even more obedient to her mother-in-law's orders!

No, when Cheng Fuyin came back from the yamen and heard that he was going to come to the old lady's yard to eat, he just thought that the old lady was willing to be lively, so he didn't think much about it, and went straight to this side. When he walked to the door, he happened to see Cheng Siyi walking over with a food box.

"Hello uncle! Are you done with your work? ”

"Hmm!" Cheng Fuyin has long been accustomed to seeing him come to eat every day these days, and when he looked at the food box in his hand, he seemed to smell a special fragrance.

"What did you bring your grandmother today?" It smells weird! ”

Cheng Siyi smiled and didn't say it explicitly, "You will know if you taste it in a while!" ”

Cheng Fuyin pouted, "You kid, you still sell off with your uncle!" Even so, the smile on his face showed that he was in a good mood.

The uncle and nephew entered the courtyard side by side, and as soon as they entered the hall, the familiar smell of wine and meat came to their nostrils!

Cheng Siyi sniffed, and suddenly became a little excited, "This is the dish of Zuixianglou!" Obediently, I haven't eaten food there for a few days, and I'm really hungry! As he spoke, he strode over to the table.

Cheng Fuyin was also in a very good mood when he smelled the fragrance, took off his robe, and sat down at the table.

Mrs. Cheng was happy to see that the family had taken their seats. "It's rare for a family to be so neat, let's eat!"

"Yes! Dinner! Mrs. Cheng nodded and echoed everyone.

Cheng Fu Yin saw that Mrs. Cheng was smiling all the time, I don't know what happened, and I felt a little strange in my heart, could it be that Mrs. Cheng won money by playing horse hanging today?

Mrs. Cheng knew that he was curious, so she helped him put a few chopsticks and side dishes into the dishes, and then said happily: "Mother met with Mrs. Wei today, and Jin'er and the Wei family's family affairs have been resolved." ”

So that's what happened!

When he went out early in the morning, he heard what his wife said, and knew that Old Lady Wei was coming today. However, he was too busy in the Yamen, dealing with the thieves on East Street for a while, and injuring people on South Street for a while, anyway, there were too many trivial things to count all day long, and he finally waited until he got off the Yamen, and he had already forgotten all about his family!

What does it mean, though?

"Is it possible...... Cancelled? ”

Seeing Mrs. Cheng nodding, Cheng Fuyin's eyes widened, and his eyes were full of disbelief.

The marriage contract has been passed down for decades, so easily let the mother cancel it? How did she do it? Could it be ....... I tore my face with the Wei family, and I won't get along with each other in the future?

Mrs. Cheng knew that he was thinking too much at this time, but she didn't say much, holding the chopsticks and picking up the dishes slowly. Anyway, the daughter-in-law knows everything, so she can tell her slowly. She had spent a long time talking, and now she was hungry!

Cheng Xiangjin only heard the news before the meal, and although there was not much turmoil in his heart, he was really relieved.

Although there is no real marriage, it is really uncomfortable to have an unpleasant marriage contract wherever you go, and besides, Wei Ke is still unclear with his cousin, which is really disgusting. Now the two are clear, just what she wants!

Cheng Siyi has been living in Chang'an for the past few years, and he is a man, but he has never heard of this old incident. Now while the whole family is happy, you have finally figured out the whole story.

He had also heard the rumors of Wei Ke and Miss Du, and now his cousin doesn't have to marry such a merry person, which is indeed worth celebrating!

The whole family raised a glass to celebrate the event, and for a while the cup was changed, and the room was full of joy.

Just when everyone was in high spirits, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps in the courtyard. Immediately after, Lan Mo's voice sounded outside the door, "Eldest prince? Is that you? ”

The footsteps paused, and a familiar voice came in. "Lan Mo, I haven't seen you for months, how are you?"

"Oh, yes, yes! The old slave and the old lady are all right! Son, please come in! After the words fell, he turned sideways and welcomed Cheng Chuyang into the house.

When everyone in the room heard this, they all stopped their chopsticks. Cheng Xiangjin also turned his head in surprise and looked at the door. At this moment, Cheng Chuyang strode in with a body of wind and dust. I haven't seen him for a few days, but he has lost a lot of weight!

"The grandson has seen the grandmother! I've seen my father and mother! ”

Old Madam Cheng saw that he was covered in dust on the road, and she felt distressed for a while, and hurriedly beckoned to Cheng Chuyang, "Yang'er, come here, let grandmother see, how did you become like this?" Why did you lose so much weight after not seeing each other for months? ”

Mrs. Cheng also stood up in surprise, obviously before going to Wannian County, her son was still handsome and white, but now how did he become like this after a few days? felt distressed in his heart, so he sprinkled his resentment on Cheng Fuyin. What kind of errand is this for his son to be a father, and he has turned a good son into this bear!

Cheng Fuyin was also stunned on the spot! He was also wronged! How could he have imagined that this would be the case! Obviously sent him to Wannian County to investigate the case of losing the girl, how could it be as if he had just returned from the disaster relief area?

Cheng Chuyang took off his dusty robe and sat next to Mrs. Cheng.

"It's a long story! The grandson came back today, firstly, to visit his grandmother, and secondly, to discuss with his father on important matters. Cheng Chuyang saw that the food on the table was extraordinarily rich, and the sound of drums suddenly sounded in his stomach.

Fortunately, Lan Mo added dishes and chopsticks to him in time, and took a few bites of food, so he felt that he had changed a little.

When Mrs. Cheng saw him gobbling up, she suddenly glared at Cheng Fuyin distressedly!

How can a father call his son like this? How can you be ruthless?

Cheng Fuyin's face was hot, and when he saw that he had almost eaten, he forcibly endured the anger of the crowd and left Mrs. Cheng's courtyard with him, and when he arrived at the study, he asked, "What's going on?" Why didn't you send someone to deliver the message in advance when you came back today? "Caught so off guard! What's more, it also made him, a father, a wicked man! Is he wronged?

"As soon as Yan Shaoyin and I arrived in Wannian County, we followed the nephew and Ya Po of that county for several days according to the clues. But the strange thing is that they didn't do anything for several days like they had been heard. My person is responsible for following Liu Er, the nephew of the county Cheng, who is a bastard, who either lingers in the Qinglou painting boat all day long, or indulges in gambling halls and restaurants. Our men have been secretly following them for several days, but they have not found any clues, and they have spent a lot of money. Just before I came back, Yan Shaoyin's whereabouts were revealed for some reason, and there were killers chasing him in the county seat. Fortunately, there are a few people in our people who have good kung fu, so nothing serious happened. Yan Shaoyin really couldn't, so he thought of a way to lure the snake out of the hole, but no one could do it, so he asked me to come back and ask for your opinion. ”

Cheng Fuyin raised his eyebrows, "Lure the snake out of the hole?" How to quote? ”

Cheng Chuyang didn't hide it, and said directly: "Find one or two girls as bait and lure them to do it!" ”

Cheng Fuyin thought for a while, "It's also a method, but it's too risky." Since you're back home, you've thought of the right person? ”

Cheng Chuyang hesitated for a moment, and said with difficulty: "The two maids that my mother just sent to Jin'er are Ganlin's younger sisters, both of them have some skills, and ordinary thugs should not be able to help them." In addition, our people are following in the dark, as long as there are no accidents, there should be no mistakes. ”

"The maid in Jin'er's Courtyard? Gan Lin's twin sister? ”

"Yes."

Cheng Fuyin was silent.
