At a lightning speed, the Plains Marquis Mansion was emptied, and the Centennial Marquis Mansion became an empty house.

As for the Qingyang prefect, there was a case of rebellion in office, which is a dereliction of duty. To pursue such an investigation, he has to wait for his superiors to decide. Those who have connections in the officialdom are transferred to other places, or temporarily demoted. If you don't have connections, you will be demoted.

After the errand was completed, Guo Changshi thought that he would stay for a few days. This is also a routine, it is rare to have a chance to go out of tolerance, if you don't play enough, if you collect enough money, how can you be willing to leave.

I didn't expect Qin Cha to be very honest, neither playing, nor receiving gifts, and flew back to the capital after finishing his errand, as if there was a monster chasing and biting him behind.

Although Guo Changshi was unexpected, he was not willing to serve the capital Qincha.

"What, Qin Cha has already left, and the Hou Mansion is also ......"

When Cheng Yuanniang learned about it, she was dumbfounded. Princess Cheng instructed Zhou Xi's family to watch Cheng Yuanniang, lest she cause trouble, and Zhou Xi's family simply concealed it thoroughly.

The matter has been settled, and Cheng Yuanniang has no trouble if she wants to.

"Well, there's no way around it." Zhou Xijia said helplessly.

Cheng Yuanniang shouted and said, "How can there be no way, that is, Princess Cheng is unwilling to do her best." ”

Princess Cheng's majesty and means, if she really wants to manage it, how can she not manage it.

Now that the Marquis of Plains Mansion has been cut off, she must have stood by and watched.

"My young lady, the Pingyuan Hou Mansion is also the princess's maiden family, and if something happens to the Pingyuan Hou Mansion, it is good for her." Zhou Xijia couldn't help but say, "It's really helpless." ”

You can not believe in Princess Cheng's character, but you can't help but believe in Princess Cheng's IQ.

The relationship of interests is here, and she believes that Princess Cheng will use 120,000 points of ability to keep the Pingyuan Hou Mansion.

If she doesn't keep it now, it's not that she doesn't work hard, but she can't do it.

"But, but ......" Cheng Yuanniang said repeatedly, full of grief and resentment.

Zhou Xijia said: "Miss, the old slave dares to guarantee with his life, and the princess hopes that the Pingyuan Hou Mansion will be good more than anyone else." ”

"But ......" Cheng Yuanniang wanted to say more, but tears flowed down, crying: "Woo, woo, what should I do, what should I do......"

Zhou Xijia persuaded: "Miss don't worry too much, Uncle will return to Qingyang soon." is that the title is gone, as long as the uncle is still there, the Cheng family will always turn over. ”

At the mention of Cheng Shaomu, Cheng Yuanniang collected a lot of tears and said, "When will the eldest brother come back?" ”

"It should be on the way, and I will definitely be able to come back in a month at most." Zhou Xijia said.

Although Princess Cheng did not say that Cheng Shaomu would return, but counting the days, Cheng Shaomu should be back soon.

"I only have big brother." Cheng Yuanniang cried.

Zhou Xijia hesitated a little and said, "There is one more thing, Miss must pay attention." ”

"What's the matter?" Cheng Yuanniang said.

Zhou Xijia said: "Miss should still remember that Shen Xiu in the uncle's house, she is now in the Shizi Mansion, and she is in the eldest prince's house." ”

She can't say too much to Cheng Yuanniang, she says too much, if she can't suppress her temper and shouts and kills, she will immediately pull Shen Xiu to death, but she will cause trouble.

At the end of the point, let Cheng Yuanniang know Shen Xiu, and nothing else can be said.

"What?" Cheng Yuanniang was extremely surprised, "She, she's not ......"

She has always had no impression of Shen Xiu, not as jealous as Xu Mei, nor as targeted as Mrs. Cheng.

It's a thorough room in the eldest brother's house, and it's very beautiful.

I thought that she would always follow Cheng Shaomu, but suddenly I heard that she was in Yanwang Mansion, which made her very surprised.

"I don't know what's going on, but I saw her in the study a few days ago and learned that she is now the eldest prince." Zhou Xijia said.

Cheng Yuanniang looked puzzled and said, "According to Tao's words, she sold Shen Xiu, is she selling it to the eldest prince?" ”

"Maybe, a girl by herself, why should Miss care too much." Zhou Xijia said.

Cheng Yuanniang said with a look of contempt: "Big brother loves her so much, she can talk to others again, she is really a slut." ”

In her opinion, even if Shen Xiu has no choice but to be betrayed to others, she should protect her chastity with death.

Now like this, with another man, he is not only sorry for Cheng Shaomu, but also seems to be lewd and shameless.

"I reminded Miss of this because I wanted Miss to know." Zhou Xijia said, and he didn't want to say it again.

Miss Qianjin naturally thinks that chastity is important, but in poor families, it is most important to be able to survive. In order to survive, it is common for women to marry twice and three times. To die for chastity is to be a fool.

"Hmph, since I'm in the Shizi's Mansion, how can I make her feel better." Cheng Yuanniang snorted coldly.

betrayed Cheng Shaomu's room, do you still want to live a good life on her.

Zhou Xijia said: "Miss, she is the eldest son's person, and it depends on the owner to beat the dog, so you just ignore her." ”

She asked carefully, and Han Rong even concealed the identity of her official slave, and only said that she was brought from the Yongshou County Palace. A few days ago, Wu personally sent someone to the West Wing, but was beaten up, which shows Han Rong's love for her.

Not to mention the moral aspect, Shen Xiu does have a face that makes men pity.

Now that there is an accident in the Pingyuan Hou Mansion, a princess like Cheng Yuanniang has to understand something, and she can't get along with Han Rong, so she can't get any benefits.

"A girl on her own." Cheng Yuanniang said disdainfully, "Can Han Rong still argue with me because of a girl?" ”

Zhou Xijia's smile was a little embarrassing, with Han Rong's character, he really did it.

When the aunt is embarrassed to be the nephew's girl, if it is known, it will be ugly. Moreover, with Han Rong's unrelenting character, if there is trouble, Cheng Yuanniang is afraid that she will have neither face nor lining.

After thinking about it, he persuaded with a smile: "The eldest prince will marry sooner or later, a girl by himself, when he throws away his hand, he doesn't have to dirty the young lady's hands, some people trample her to death." ”

This is the truth, it is the norm to step on the high and praise the low in the back house, especially when the Wu family has been annoyed by Shen Xiu.

In the current situation, Cheng Yuanniang just ignored Shen Xiu. An official slave can't get a good one.

"How can I be calm in my heart." Cheng Yuanniang said hatefully, she is now full of resentment, and she is worried that there is no outlet to vent. sent a Shen Xiu, if she didn't let her vent her anger, she would really suffocate her.

Zhou Xijia was speechless in his heart, so he changed the topic and said, "Miss just has twelve points in her heart, and she will put it down now." The family has been cut off the title, and it is still unknown what will happen to the Cheng family in the future. In order to plan for the future, the young lady should also clean up her dowry and make a calculation in terms of money. ”

"Dowry ......" Cheng Yuanniang was somewhat stunned for a moment, and said, "What's there to care about." ”

Money matters are mundane things, how can Miss Qianjin manage money.

Zhou Xijia said: "I know that Miss has ignored money since she was a child, but now it is not as good as before." In the past, you had the Hou Mansion as a backer, and your wife loved you, so you could naturally do whatever you wanted. In the current situation, the uncle is back, and he also wants to revitalize the family, and it is impossible to subsidize you with any more money. Although the Yanwang Mansion will not be short of food and clothing, the money is limited, and the only thing you can use in your hand is the dowry. ”

The married woman wants to live a comfortable life, and the husband's family is a part, but more importantly, the amount of dowry, which is the key to future life.

Fortunately, when Cheng Yuanniang came out of the cabinet, Mrs. Cheng felt sorry for her and prepared a rich dowry. Under normal circumstances, she would definitely not be able to spend it in her life. But sitting and eating empty, I always have to remind him, and then divert Cheng Yuanniang's attention.

"Mom has a point." Cheng Yuanniang said, saying this, she didn't take it too seriously in her heart, "I'll pay attention." ”

The master and servant were talking in the room, and footsteps sounded outside, and the little eunuch entered the door to speak: "There is a person outside who claims to be the younger brother of the princess, and he asks to see the princess." ”

In addition to the Cheng family, there is an uncle, Cheng Shaomu, and a concubine, Cheng Shaoxin, who is also known to the eunuchs outside.

Now that his parents are dead, his brother is gone, and the Marquis Mansion of Pingyuan is gone, it is understandable that he came to join his sister.

"Brother?" Cheng Yuanniang was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that it was Cheng Shaoxin.

Aunt Li is very honest, Cheng Shaoxin is also very well-behaved, and Mrs. Cheng treats them well.

It's just that Cheng Yuanniang is a young lady and has a brother, so she has no relationship with Cheng Shaoxin. chose to come to join at this time, and she didn't want to see her at all.

Zhou Xi's first reaction was to ask the little eunuch: "Have you returned to the princess?" ”

Cheng Yuanniang is an older sister, and Princess Cheng is an aunt. If Princess Cheng is in charge and leaves Cheng Shaoxin, Cheng Yuanniang will save trouble.

"Second Master Cheng only said that he wanted to see the princess." The little eunuch paused for a moment and said: "The princess has a headache, and there are doctors in Jiale Hall who move around every day, and they don't dare to disturb them for small things. ”

Zhou Xi's meeting and Cheng Shaoxin's arrival are just a trivial matter for Princess Cheng.

If she is in good health, she may be in a good mood, but now she is not in a good mood and in good health, so she is too lazy to care.

"The princess doesn't want to see it, so why should I go to see it." Cheng Yuanniang said, there was no emotion, what was there to see.

Zhou Xijia pondered for a moment, and then said to the little eunuch: "The princess is not good for days, and it is not convenient to meet guests. You used to tell him that the uncle is coming back soon, and the second master will live in the Li family first, and when the uncle comes back, he will pick him up. ”

Aunt Li is a shrewd and powerful woman, and she will not fail because of an accident. Although the Li family is a subordinate and has a lot of money, there is no problem in temporarily adopting Cheng Shaoxin for a while.

It is indeed a bit difficult to let Cheng Yuanniang take in Cheng Shaoxin.

The main thing is Cheng Shaoxin's age, a teenager, half an age. If you really want to be a few years old, you can arrange it for the time being. It's really hard to deal with such a half-sized child.

With Cheng Shaomu's personality, he will definitely not ignore his brothers. Temporarily stay in the Li Mansion first, and wait for Cheng Shaomu to come back, so that he can handle it better.

"Yes." The little eunuch said, and turned to go.

Zhou Xijia thought about it, and said to Cheng Yuanniang: "Anyway, the second master is also looking for Miss, and Miss is also more careful, and send two hundred taels of silver to the Li family." ”

"Just now, my mother also said, let me have a plan in my heart, don't spend money indiscriminately." Cheng Yuanniang said, "Why give him money." ”

has no feelings, and Cheng Shaoxin will also have limited opportunities in the future. She hadn't cared about this brother before, so why should she care now.

Zhou Xijia was dumbfounded and had nothing to say.

"Someone." Cheng Yuanniang suddenly called the little girl and ordered: "Call that Shen Xiu in the eldest son's house." ”
