Chapter 5 Young Master Cousin
This young man is Mrs. Luo's nephew, surnamed Zhou Mingchun, and is very loved by Mrs. Luo, so when Chen's mother saw that he was unhappy, she immediately rushed up and said a good word: "It's not that the young master doesn't have a chance to ask her away, that girl may not be a distinguished guest in a few days, and then the young master will be able to ......."
Mother Chen's words made Zhou Chun's face a little more satisfied, and she touched her chin and said, "Then Mother Lao will bring me a letter, this girl, young master, I will decide!" β
"The young master's instructions have been written down, and the lady is still waiting for you......"
Chen's mother flattered Zhou Chun while leading him to the main room, and when their voices gradually faded away until they were completely inaudible, Gu Zheng pulled the spoon and got out of the bushes behind the rockery, frowning and looking at the direction of Zhou Chun's departure.
It turned out that Gu Zheng sensed that Zhou Chun had bad intentions towards her, so she didn't really go far before, but walked a few steps and quietly folded back with a spoon, hiding behind the bushes to eavesdrop on the conversation between Zhou Chun and Chen's mother. It was precisely because Gu Zheng kept an eye on it that he was able to know Zhou Chun's identity and intentions at this moment.
The spoon on the side was also worried about Gu Zheng, and without waiting for Gu Zheng to ask, she took the initiative to tell everything she knew: "Girl, he is the young master of the Zhou Mansion and the nephew of Madame!" Madame was very fond of this nephew because she had no children under her knees, and often called him to the house to stay in the house......"
"It is precisely because he is his wife's nephew that he is so unsightly, rampant and domineering, and he is not very polite to the people in the house! The slave maid also heard that the lady almost passed him to the knees, and took the word 'table' away, making him the young master of the Cen family rightfully! β
Spoon'er's words surprised Gu Zheng and asked, "Mrs. Luo once wanted to pass her nephew under her own knee and let the son of the Zhou family change his surname to Cen?" β
Spoon is the son of the Cen family, and she is a simple-minded person, so as soon as she saw that Gu Zheng was interested in this matter, she immediately "crackled" and poured out a bunch of old things about Cen Mansion: "Girl, you have only been in our house for a few days, and you don't know some things!" The slave's mother said that in the early years, when there was no seventh young master in the house, there was no young master ......."
"Mrs. Tai saw that the old man had carried five aunts into the house, and the Cen family still had no successor, and she was very anxious! But the old man is a sixth-generation single heir, and the Cen family has no close relatives to inherit the heir," Spoon paused as he spoke, and his voice suddenly became a lot lower: "This week, the young master of the Zhou family has often been in and out of our Cen Mansion since he was a child, and after a long time, Mrs. Tai once joked that she wanted to succeed the young master and let the young master be her grandson!" β
Gu Zheng has only been in Cen Mansion for a few days, and he only found out some of the most basic news, and he really didn't know that the heirs of Cen Mansion were so thin, so thin that they almost had to succeed other people's sons to inherit the incense.
However, this week, Chun knew that his character was not good, if the Cen family really succeeded him, the huge family business would lose in his hands sooner or later...... Of course, none of this has anything to do with Gu Zheng, Gu Zheng also chased after the spoon because he loved gossip: "What happened then?" β
"What's the future?! Mrs. Tai just said a joke casually, and then she didn't mention it again when she felt that it was not feasible," Spoon said, with a layer of disdain in her eyes, and a little disdain in her words: "I didn't expect Young Master Biao to take this matter seriously!" The slave's mother said that after the beating, the young master of the table would call himself the 'future young master of the Cen family' every day, and he would command and call people to serve him at every turn, but he was rampant and domineering in the house! β
"Even if there is now the only seedling of the Seventh Young Master in our house, the Young Master is still very arrogant, and he even said behind his back that maybe one day the Seventh Young Master will suddenly be bad, and he will succeed to the knees of his wife and become the young master of the Cen family, and often beat the subordinates of our Cen Mansion with this, telling us to respect him and serve him with our hearts...... really regards Cen Mansion as his own home! β
In order to be the heir of others, he cursed the only seedling of the family to die early, which is also too vicious!
It's just that why didn't Mrs. Luo care about Zhou Chun's nephew and let him say such vicious things behind his back?
Gu Zheng quickly asked the question in his heart, and after hearing it, Spoon felt very unhappy for the only young master of Cen Mansion: "It's not because our seventh young master was born to my aunt, not Madame's in-laws, Madame doesn't want to see him in her heart!" The slave maid felt that the lady treated her nephew better than the seventh young master! β
The simple-minded spoon first complained for Cen Qilang, and then suddenly became worried, lowered his head and looked at Gu Zheng with a complicated expression, and he wanted to say something, as if he wanted to say something to her, but he was embarrassed to speak.
Spoon'er's expression made Gu Zheng's heart tense and vaguely had a hint of foreboding, and he immediately asked, "Why did Sister Spoon'er's face suddenly become so ugly?" But what's wrong with that young master? β
"The slave and maid heard...... I heard that the young master has a lot of pink and delicate girls in his family, all of them are around ten years old, and I heard that they have to ...... You have to serve the young master like a maid in the room! At the end, the spoon had already cried a little, obviously remembering what Zhou Chun said before, and looked at Gu Zheng with worry: "Girl, the young master just said that he was going to Madame to ask you for you, he won't be ...... I want to take you home as a ...... When ......"
Although Spoon Er didn't finish her words and didn't say it very clearly, Gu Zheng quickly understood what she wanted to express, and a wave of nausea suddenly surged in her heartβββ this Zhou Chun not only opened meat and played with women at a young age, but also had a hobby of lewd * molesting young girls, it was really shameless and perverted!
In the future, when I see that Zhou Chun, not only will I have to stay away as soon as possible, but I will also think of a good lesson for him when I have the opportunity, so that he will suffer more and dare not beat her again!
After Gu Zheng made up his mind, he saw that Spoon Er was still looking at her worriedly, and his heart suddenly warmed, and while smiling and taking Spoon'er's hand and walking towards Tingquan Courtyard, he took out the hairpin that was used to poke Zhou Chun and shook it in front of Spoon, and said disapprerovitically: "Sister Spoon'er don't worry about me, I won't let that disgusting young master take advantage of me!" If he dares to hit my idea again, this hairpin won't be poked at his feet next time! β
After all, Spoon is simple and young, unlike Gu Zheng who is a pseudo-Lori, after listening to Gu Zheng's words, she was also very curious, and immediately asked with a serious face: "Where is the girl going to poke him?" Calves? Or belly? β
What Gu Zheng wants to poke the most is naturally Zhou Chun's life*root, and a perverted person like Zhou Chun is the most suitable eunuch! But Gu Zheng didn't dare to tell the truth to the spoon, so he only casually said a few words perfunctory, and then quietly diverted the topic.
As soon as they entered the house, they saw Gu Liniang, who said that they were going to hang out, and they were walking around the room with their heads down...... When Gu Zheng saw it, he was immediately puzzled, thinking to himself what Gu Liniang was tossing?
"Mother, didn't you say you were going to visit the garden? Why did you come back one step ahead of us? Gu Zheng asked casually, and Gu Liniang walked out of the back room in a panic, and said with a weak face: "I suddenly came back if I didn't want to go shopping!" β
Gu Liniang's words were a bit far-fetched, her expression looked a little wrong, and her eyes always drifted to the inner room unconsciously...... Gu Zheng saw that Gu Liniang was wrong, and then raised his legs and walked to the inner room, wanting to see what was hidden inside that made Gu Liniang so weak-hearted.
Unexpectedly, before Gu Zheng entered the back room, Chen's mother rushed to Tingquan Courtyard with a group of servant women with tigers and bears' waists, and Zhou Chun, who was shaking a fan and staring at Gu Zheng with bad intentions, followed by Chen's mother. Zhou Chun's arrival made Gu Zheng's heart sink immediately, and he glared at him fiercely.
Looking at the menacing Mother Chen again, I saw that her face had long since lost the politeness she had disguised at the beginning, and when she saw Gu Zheng's mother and daughter, she didn't even say a word of politeness, and directly waved her hand to the group of mothers-in-law and ordered: "Give me a careful search of the inside and outside of Tingquan Courtyard!" Don't let me go anywhere! β
As soon as those mothers-in-law got the order, they immediately rushed in, and without even looking at Gu Zheng's mother and son, they directly started to rummage over the things in the house, and shouted that Gu Liniang was so anxious that she was dissatisfied at the moment: "Stop it for the old lady!" What are you guys doing here?! I'm a guest invited back by your wife, and you can't do this to me! β
Mother Chen didn't give Gu Liniang any face, and immediately sarcastically mocked Gu Liniang with a disdainful face: "Mrs. Gu, it's true that you are a distinguished guest invited back by Mrs. Tai, but you are also a thief who stole things from our Cen Mansion!" We don't dare to lure wolves into the house and provide a white-eyed wolf like you in the house! β
Before Chen's mother finished speaking, a mother-in-law came out of the inner room carrying an indigo baggage...... As soon as Gu Liniang saw the burden, her face suddenly felt a little more empty, and her body subconsciously shrank back.
The woman untied the bag and put it on the table, and there were bracelets, hairpins, beads, purse sachets, handkerchiefs, fan covers, and other things scattered from the bag, and there seemed to be a few clothes and other things pressed under those things. Although the things underneath are not very clear when pressed by the jewelry, just by looking at the exposed corners, you can see that it is a delicate and expensive good thing.
Gu Zheng recognized at a glance that the indigo burden and the things in the baggage did not belong to her or Gu Liniang, and carefully noticed that Gu Liniang first shrank her shoulders weakly, and then straightened her waist again.
At this moment, the mother-in-law who opened the bag pointed to the things on the table and replied: "Mother Chen, not a single thing lost in our house is bad, and all of them are in this burden!" And this burden was turned out under Mrs. Gu's bed, presumably because she was afraid of being discovered after stealing something, so she quietly wrapped it and hid it under the bed. β
