Chapter 320: The Entrance Test
In fact, Zhu Changan was unwilling to arrange Cheng Hao's family into the Jinling banquet. Because it was so eye-catching, it was easy to attract the attention of the old foxes.
However, this is what Cheng Hao insisted on.
That thing, it's too much to breathe.
Zhu Changan knew Cheng Qingyu's tricks and guessed their plans at once. He secretly thought about it, but it was okay, so he asked Jin Yu to sum up with Cheng Hao's family in advance, and the other party actually agreed to his proposal......
And over there, after Cheng Ziyu left, she asked Liu Er to find someone to follow Cheng Hao's family. She wanted to know who they had contact with and what they had done, especially Cheng Qingyu.
After finding someone to ask Zhu Changan for the balance of the gold and jade, Cheng Ziyu grabbed the red jade.
"Let's take a walk."
"Okay, Ziyu, I see a ...... playing with pitchers there."
"Sister, my mother is worried about your marriage, she brought you here, it should be for your marriage, right?"
Cheng Ziyu saw that today's Cheng Hongyu was full of pearls, it should be her mother's hope that she would still shine among many female dependents. And He's temperament is a little cold, but just now he was socializing with a few noblewomen from Jinling, obviously for the sake of Hongyu.
"You and my sister, you have to tell me, if you want to marry or fancy it. I may be able to give you a reference, and I can help you if necessary. Dad doesn't care, my mother still spoils you, if you have a favorite, I can help you go to your grandfather's place to play the side drum. If you have an idea, you have to say it, lest the elders point out the wrong mandarin duck score......"
"You dead girl, be careful I tear your mouth apart! Why are you so thick-skinned, I'm so busy every day that my feet don't touch the ground......"
"Well, no, no, no. There are a lot of sons at the banquet, you tell me, I like that, if my mother asks, I can help you talk about it! Do you like to look good, or are you talented, shrewd, or honest? ”
Ruby swept Ziyu up and down.
"Don't talk about me yet! I've heard that the old man hasn't been showing you a husband lately. The old man tossed for a few months, and suddenly stopped, I'm afraid someone didn't choose someone, right? I went to ask my mother, but my mother didn't know what to ask. It's you, tell me the truth, you are so anxious to give me Zhang Luoren, are you in a hurry to get married? ”
Cheng Ziyu glared at her, not revealing her guilt at all.
"I haven't finished yet, I'm in a hurry! I'm down to business! Besides, I'm recruiting, not marrying, and the candidate is not so easy to decide. What exactly do you think, tell me. ”
"I ...... Didn't think much of it. ”
Ruby hesitated and gritted her teeth.
"Ziyu, I'...... I don't want to leave home, I don't want to get married, I don't want to leave Jingxi. I'm also recruiting, but I'm not married, okay? Go and talk to the old man for me. ”
This can only be said and laughed, the old man will not respond, the father will not respond, this is even more embarrassing for the brothers. Recruit your aunt, this is not good. I was trying to pass on my craft, and it took me a long time to be recognized by the potters. Do you remember the two years when I was positioned as the inheritor by my grandfather, and the Cheng family's order was at least ten years......"
"Okay, okay, don't talk about it. I just think I'm fine with this. So there are some worries. Ziyu, you and the old man have been absent recently, and the third uncle at home is too busy to work, but he has received a lot of royal orders. I follow my third uncle and mother every day, and I feel very happy. Let's put it this way, in my past 15 years, the last half year has been the happiest! ”
"Really?"
"Hmm!"
Cheng Hongyu's eyes lit up, and her words were chiseled, and Cheng Ziyu was relieved a lot. In her previous life, Hongyu had nothing to do, and she only stared at Jinyu every day. She has changed a lot in this life, and knowing that sharing for the family will naturally change her interests.
"If you like this time, then don't marry far away. Just stay in Jingxi. If you want to go back, you can go back, if you want to see your mother, I can play with you when I have time, you poke the basket and the Cheng family supports you......"
Seeing that Hongyu's cheeks were slightly red, but she did not refuse, Cheng Ziyu gradually settled down.
Cheng Ziyu has thought about it, and there are really a lot of forces that covet the Cheng family.
At first, she thought that Xue Jun had come across Hongyu by chance. Later, in Jiaoshan, Xue Jun was courteous to her, and she had the heart of framing, she was confused, and thought that Xue Jun was Zhu Changan's person.
But a few days ago, when it was confirmed that Zhu Changan had completely remembered all the things in his previous life, it could be deduced that Xue Jun could not be his person.
Xue Jun is young and promising, and he was hand-picked to go south, if he is really Zhu Changan's person, it must have taken a lot of his painstaking efforts to collect it. And Zhu Changan knew that he hated Xue Jun because of the events of his previous life, it was too late for him to protect Xue Jun, and it was impossible for Xue Jun to frame him. There was absolutely no way he could waste such a promising chess piece on her......
So, Cheng Ziyu was stunned.
What is the origin of this Xue Jun?
Except for Zhu Chang'an, who is responsible for Hongyu? Or, is she really thinking too much, this Xue Jun was "love at first sight" with Hongyu in his previous life, and then "fell in love in a different place"?
Because she couldn't figure it out, it was best for Hongyu to stay in Jingxi. Let alone...... In Cheng Ziyu's opinion, Hongyu, a nerd, is clearly waiting for a good marriage in Jingxi!
"However, although the Cheng family is a family of businessmen and craftsmen, there are still not many people on the ground in Jingxi who can match the Cheng family. Sister, I have a heartfelt saying. ”
"Say!"
"I think it's the second son of the He family and the second son of the He family."
Ruby's eyebrows furrowed.
"The unlucky ghost of the He family and the nasty ghost of the He family?"
“……”
Cheng Ziyu wanted to tell her that He Yong's bad luck was due to Liu'er, and He Sijing hated it because he cared about her and wanted to get her attention......
"I proposed the two of them only because I knew the roots and could rely on them. The He family has been following the pace of the Cheng family for many years, and the Cheng and He families have the absolute right to speak in the Jingxi pottery industry. I said that the He family is suitable not for the Cheng family, but that the He family will definitely respect and spoil you, in order to seek the cuteness of the Cheng family.
As for the He family, not to mention, they are all good relatives, your aunt treats you like your own child, and your grandmother is spoiled there, I am afraid that you are stronger than in the Cheng family in those days. Think for yourself. ”
Point to point. Cheng Ziyu spoke to the point, and Hongyu would definitely be able to listen to it. She didn't say anything more for the time being, leaving Hongyu to think about it herself.
However, as soon as the two turned the corner, Cheng Ziyu found that Hongyu beside him was a little stunned.
Not far away, there is a son who is painting with ink.
Although the child's face is only one side, he is also handsome and extraordinary, and the temperament of the whole person is all elegant and gentle, which makes people feel good at first sight.
Isn't this person Xue Jun, the plague god of Hongyu's fate?
Xue Jun received the holy order today and will paint ten scenes of his birthday.
There were already several paintings on the silver plate in the hand of the scholar behind him, and he must have been painting for a while, and his face was already tired.
But even so, he can still make Hongyu stunned, sure enough, what should happen will happen?
Cheng Ziyu decisively pulled Hongyu and changed her path.
"What? Does my sister have a crush on such a son? ”
"You girl, why do you always arrange me! Seeing that the boy was obedient, he looked at it twice. ”
"Sister, the more gentle and harmless you are, the more you can't let your guard down." Cheng Ziyu did things willfully in her previous life, and she was the least persuasive, and she was not good at talking bitterly at this time.
"Just like the prince who was with the second uncle just now, Jun, right? You should have seen him in the morning parade, and you should have thought he was a gentle gentleman, right? But didn't you notice it just now, when he stood with his second uncle, the viciousness in his eyes made people shudder. He has plans for the Cheng family, so he doesn't hide his hatred. And the one who painted just now gave me the same feeling, even if I don't have the heart of a jackal, it must not be a good thing! ”
Either this Xue Hanlin has plans for the Cheng family, or he is a scum who is merciful everywhere.
"Poof, right?"
"Sister, why don't we try?"
Cheng Ziyu smiled faintly, took the red jade around the road, and followed Xue Jun from a distance to draw the next scene.
I just finished painting the flowers, and now I came to the side of the rockery.
Xue Jun went to the pavilion on the rockery, and there were guests drinking tea in the pavilion, and when they heard that he had received the order, they made room for him.
As soon as the pen, ink, paper and inkstone should be spread out, he rolled up his sleeves and began to condescendingly paint the lively banquet scene, leaving only a scholar by his side. Cheng Ziyu took the red jade around the back of the rockery, and climbed up the rockery stone steps for most of the time, and the place where he stood just passed through the leaky eye of the rockery to get a glimpse of the people in the pavilion.
Cheng Ziyu inserted the bright red gold gems on the red jade's head into the painting, and then dragged the red jade's handkerchief and stuffed it into the painting's hand. smiled at the painting, and even the red purse pinned to Hongyu's waist was buckled to himself.
I got a signal to get into the picture and appeared with a smile......
"Beauty tricks?" Ruby asked softly with wide eyes.
"No, the painting is a litmus test, whether he is a jackal or a pervert, you will know if you try it."
Into the painting, Cheng Ziyu is very confident in her.
On the same day, he took the painting to Gao Xi's salt boat, and finally won a big victory, and the painting was indispensable. Isn't it general to deal with oil slippery businesses for many years?
At that time, the painting fully showed her eight-sided exquisiteness. She used Gao Xi to covet her beauty, and easily played Gao Xi around. Now this Xue Jun is naturally no problem.
And Jiao Shanxing that day was the only time Cheng Ziyu and Xue Jun met during this time, and she was carrying Liu Er with her at that time, so Cheng Ziyu was sure that the paintings that were submerged in a lot of palace maids most of the time must not be recognized by Xue Jun......
And Cheng Ziyu is naturally not idle.
In addition to wanting to prevent Hongyu from falling into this trap of Xue Jun again, she also wants to see whether the target of this guy is a beauty or the Cheng family through the painting......
Hongyu snorted, and Cheng Ziyu motioned for her to look.
In the painting, a fan covers the sun, and Pian Pian walks under the rockery.
Her gait was lazy and casual, a little drunk.
"The banquet is noisy, or this scenery is good, it's ...... The sun was too dry. This opening is full of drunkenness, with a little flattery, and it is the most easy to be taken advantage of.
In the painting, the arm of the swinging fan is raised, and a piece of the wrist is exposed like a snowy hao, shining like a beautiful jade in the sunlight.
She raised her eyes and looked up, "Hey, it's good up there, there's a gazebo, go up and sleep, and continue to drink for a while." "Walk up slowly into the painting......
Ruby's complexion was gradually darkening.
Their attention was on Xue Jun.
He heard a woman under the rockery, and stopped his pen and looked down. As long as he is not a fool, he can clearly see that the woman is drunk, what he should do is to condescendingly beckon the palace maid not far away to come over and take someone to rest. This is one.
The woman wants to go up to the pavilion, there are no other female relatives in the pavilion, it is obviously not appropriate for the woman to come up, if he is a righteous man and a gentleman, he should open his mouth to prevent the woman from going up the mountain, but he didn't.
On these two points, it is obvious that this harmless face is not worthy of the heart that is inferior.
And Xue Jun did not show any appropriate behavior, nor did he let the scholar go to stop the woman who came up to the pavilion, but returned to the painting with a smile, waved his pen, put on a chic posture and began to carry the pen gracefully, which is really despicable.
And the scholar got his signal, and retreated behind the pavilion pillar.
In the painting, she walked up to the pavilion with the rockery, she gasped, held her head, and did not "see" that there were still people in the pavilion.
She sat down on a bench nearby and lay down on her side with her head propped up against the railing.
The rockery was windy, blowing in gusts, outlining the girl's slender figure, so that Hanlin's eyes could not be moved.
"This ...... Girl? Hanlin was "frightened", acting shy and helpless, as if Tang Seng had seen a spider spirit.
The male voice entered the ears, the drooping eyes were startled, a pair of beautiful eyes widened suddenly, the eyes were cut water, and the pretty face was flushed, and Hanlin's eyes were full of amazement.
He jumped up like a frightened fawn, and in a panic, the handkerchief in his hand flew out.
The wine in the painting woke up most of the time, and he reached out to grab the handkerchief, and Na Hanlin was kind enough to come up to help, and the two almost bumped into each other. In addition to embarrassment, there is also a trace of ambiguity in the air.
The handkerchief fell not far away and hung on the rockery.
Hanlin was not allowed to show "heroism" and took the initiative to pick up the veil.
After the handkerchief arrived, he did not return it as soon as possible......
Cheng Ziyu and the two could see it clearly, he took the handkerchief and looked left and right, especially the ...... Embroidery.
"Rotten!" Ruby cursed softly.
The handkerchief was the woman's personal belongings, and it was inappropriate for him to take the initiative to pick it up. Without permission, there is still a face looking there?
Cheng Ziyu didn't pay attention to the red jade, but stared at Na Hanlin tightly.
Sure enough, a hint of surprise flashed across Han Lin's face......
Cheng Ziyu sneered.
Because she knew that there was a word "Cheng" on Hongyu's veil......
I saw that Xue Jun made a respectful gesture and sent the handkerchief to the painting, but the little eyes were looking at the painting from head to toe.
The hairpin on the woman's head is inlaid with seven-colored gemstones, and a ruby in the middle is particularly eye-catching, echoing the bracelet on the wrist and two earrings of the same color.
This face is worth at least a thousand taels, and the woman in front of her is obviously not a slave, but the master of the Cheng family.
He vaguely guessed the identity of the woman.
Reaching out to take the handkerchief, the jade-like fingers were smooth and soft, rubbing against Xue Jun's fingertips, which proved his guess. If it weren't for Miss Qianjin, how could she have such delicate hands......
"Zhangshan ruler tree, far water without traces, far forest without leaves...... Childe, it's a good painting! ”
"The girl knows how to draw?"
"The needs of buying and selling at home are just a little bit of fur."
