Chapter 180. The first time I saw him
The father and daughter didn't communicate much along the way.
Jing Xin was pretending to sleep, so Jing Wu had no one to communicate with, and what was even worse was that the closer she got to the family, the more uneasy her heart became, and Bai Jitong's eyes were red and crazy like a demon kept flashing in her mind, so she naturally had no intention of communicating.
After some time, the carriage slowed down until it came to a standstill.
The curtain was raised, revealing a small gap in the teeth.
Kyoto's residence arrived.
Jing Xin returned to his usual scenery in an instant, he straightened his clothes a little, and then stepped out of the carriage first.
After a brief explanation and a short wait, the father and daughter entered the Cheng Mansion without any problems.
That's right, where Cheng Hao lives, the door plaque is hung with "Cheng Di", not "Cheng Fu". The use of "house", "di" and "house" on the door plaque of the house in this dynasty is not as strict as that of the previous dynasty, but most people in the world have followed the rules.
Only the old house of the top family is called "house", such as the Bai family, the Bai family is the top family entrenched in Kyoto, so the door plaque hung on the door of the Bai family has been "white house" for hundreds of years, but the Bai family cannot all live in the courtyard of the house, and there are many Bai family members who are officials in other towns.
This "Chengdi" also follows this method.
The father and daughter quietly followed the guide and walked all the way, but the farther they went, the deeper the doubts in Jing Wu's heart.
A few years ago, when Cheng Xuan had not returned to Yanzhou, Jing Wu and Bai Xianyu were invited by Cheng Xuan and came to Cheng Di several times. In the past two or three years, the interior of the Chengdi has not changed much, although Jingwu is not familiar with the road, but he still has a general impression of the direction of the layout of various places.
Therefore, Jing Wu only recalled a little, and he could tell that the direction in which the subordinates who led the way should not be the living room in the Cheng Mansion, but this direction was like the guest house where she and Bai Xianyu had stayed for one night!
But why take them there?
quietly glanced at her father, and understood the doubts in her father's eyes.
Jing Wu couldn't help but look at the family members who were leading the way, and asked, "Where is this taking us?" I remember the parlor wasn't in that direction. ”
The subordinate who led the way suddenly stopped, and looked back with a look of embarrassment: "Miss Jing, the lord and the lady are actually not in the mansion at the moment, they are ......"
Seeing that the destination was in front of him, the next person was searching his stomach and wanted to explain a few more words, at least stabilize the father and daughter in front of him first.
Jing Xin suddenly interrupted: "Since the master's family is not here, then why do you still bring my father and daughter inside?" Or is it that the family is now in charge of the guests? ”
"This ...... No...... It's ......".
The subordinate who led the way couldn't answer, and he was hesitant for a while.
Jing Wu thought for a moment and asked again: "What about your young lady?" ”。
Jing Wu felt that since they were here to return Cheng Xuan's Geng post, it should be okay to return it directly to Cheng Xuan.
As soon as Jing Wu's words fell, before the person leading the way could react, an unfamiliar male voice sounded not far away.
"Xuan'er is not here, I asked him to bring you here."
Jing Wu turned his head when he heard the voice, it was a young man, the man looked at the weak crown, the sword eyebrows and starry eyes, the posture was long, wearing a gorgeous dress, half-hidden in the flowers and trees, the temperament was sharp but round, contradictory but not abrupt.
And he called Cheng Xuan "Xuan'er", so that the subordinates who evoked the family were also very handy, and the identity was almost about to come out, but I didn't know which one of the families was born.
Jing Wu was still looking carefully, figuring it out, and Jing Xin on the other side had already arched his hand: "Jing Xin has seen the third young master." ”
Naturally, the third young master will not be Bai Jitong, but the third young master of the family, Cheng He.
That's right, the person who came was one of the main forces who had retired from the Bai family before, Cheng He, who was in a big house, and he was the same as Bai Jitong, who was the third.
Cheng He raised his eyebrows: "Butler Jingda, do you still know me?" It's been so many years, and you can still recognize me when your daughter is so old? ”
Jing Xin smiled: "Naturally, I can't recognize it, but it's not difficult to guess." After all, the Third Young Master is still the same as he was eight years ago, and his bearing is extraordinary. ”
Cheng He raised his hand to stop: "Okay, I don't want to say anything to you, and I'm not in the mood for this." Steward Jingda, you are a rare person who understands, just give me the things, and you can go back. His gaze unabashedly looked at the wooden box in Jing Wu's hand.
Now Jing Wu understood that the three young men in front of him were obviously aware of the purpose of their trip, and they also guessed that the wooden box in her hand contained Cheng Xuan's Geng post.
Receiving Jing Xin's eyes, Jing Wu held the wooden box in his hand: "The thing is here." By the way, the people took two steps in the direction where Cheng He was standing, but did not walk in front of Cheng He.
"Go get it." Cheng He instructed the subordinates who had guided Jing Wu's father and daughter before.
The subordinate replied respectfully, yes.
walked to Jing Wu's side in a few steps and carefully took the wooden box in Jing Wu's hand.
Cheng He took the wooden box and did not open it, but hesitated for a moment and said, "Thank you." ”
Jing Wu thought that he was thanking them for sending back Cheng Xuan's Geng post in time, but in fact, Cheng He thanked them for packing the Geng post in a wooden box.
Cheng Xuan's Geng post, no matter what, the Bai family will inevitably return it, one day earlier and one day later, in fact, it is not too much worse.
But the way of returning it is beyond their control.
Bai Jitong's Geng post was returned to Bai Jitong by him casually and barely, if the Bai family also sent it back directly, it would be understandable, but Jingxin's father and daughter took the box and sent it over.
Although the matter of retiring from relatives will be known to everyone sooner or later, this does not mean that the Cheng family will be willing to become a Xuan Geng post, and in the process of returning it, it will be exposed to the public! Even a delicate person can definitely guess what's inside the box, but at least it's a wooden box in his eyes.
Jing Xin said: "The third young master doesn't need to be polite, but it's a pity that he can't meet the adult face-to-face...... In this way, Jingxin took the little girl back first. ”
Jing Xin was about to leave as he spoke, he had never been a dragger, although the purpose of this trip was only half achieved, he would rather wait for another opportunity than look for a chance stiffly.
Although Jing Wu had some doubts and regrets, she didn't say much, nodded, and turned around after bowing to Cheng He.
Seeing that the father and daughter were about to walk out of their sight, Cheng He frowned and suddenly raised his voice.
"Wait......"
"I'll take you there, and they'll be in the guest house."
When Jing Wu turned around suspiciously, he only saw the back of Cheng He walking away.
Jing Xin patted Jing Wu on the shoulder.
"Let's go, girl......"
