Chapter 53, it must be the ghost of the Qiao family
The morning light is faint, the autumn mood is already thick, and when you wake up early in the late autumn season, you can already feel the chill attacking every sensory touch of the body.
Cheng Xinlan hadn't gotten up so early for a long time, and on weekdays, the Zhang family would order someone to wake her up early, asking her to go to her parents every day to say good morning.
But during this time, Zhang's somehow let her, maybe he didn't dare to mess with her, maybe he didn't want to see her more, every time he met, except for Zhou Yu or Zhou Yu, he couldn't scold or beat, so it was better to let her sleep full, and it was best to wake up and forget about Zhou Yu.
Cheng Xinlan dragged her lazy body and sat down in front of the dressing mirror, when the woman just woke up, her skin was generally in the best condition, she picked up the mirror, took a closer look at her face, and her right index finger gently slid over her cheek, she felt that she was much better looking than Qiao Wan'er, Qiao Wan'er was just in better shape, that face, thin like that, she couldn't look down on the so-called Peugeot.
"Ruyi, you say, is your young lady good-looking, or is that Qiao good-looking?"
Cheng Xinlan hasn't had time to thrush yet, she looks like a distant mountain lightly, I have to say that Cheng Xinlan's face is still very attractive when she is quiet and doesn't make other powerful looks.
But she likes heavy makeup, and she stares at her face when she doesn't agree with her, and her original tranquil temperament disappears in an instant.
But Ruyi is not a fool, even if she thinks that Qiao is the best-looking woman she has ever seen, at this moment she will only squat down respectfully, look at Cheng Xinlan, and try to reply in a sincere tone.
"Miss, you actually asked such a simple question as Ruyi, Miss is a daughter, and the snacks are the best, your beauty and temperament, who is so arrogant, dare to compare? If you want me to say, if the young lady marries into the general's mansion, the general will soon find out who the real beauty is. ”
Cheng Xinlan stretched out her hand and touched Ruyi's forehead lightly, smiling like the sun, the most brilliant yang at twelve o'clock at noon, "It is worthy of being my most intimate girl, I understand me so well, I will definitely reward you today." ”
"Miss, I'm telling the truth, but it's not for you any reward, now with Miss, I've been doing too well, why do I need any other reward?"
Ruyi's words are true, she is Cheng Xinlan's personal maid, she eats and plays with Cheng Xinlan when she is a child, although she has also been Cheng Xinlan's punching bag since she was a child, but she understands that her life is not good, she is the maid's daughter, this is already the best ending.
Cheng Xinlan listened to it and smiled evilly.
"You are stupid, I can give you other rewards, for example, to find you a good family......"
"Miss, why are you talking nonsense today, how old am I, just tell me about people, okay, if Miss makes fun of me again, Miss will comb her hair by herself today."
Ruyi was so embarrassed by Cheng Xinlan that her face was red, because Cheng Xinlan poked her heart.
The two of you said a word, the dressing time passed quickly, and Cheng Xinlan was in a good mood, just because she knew that her father would really make it clear to them this time, either the grain and grass were asked for with Cheng Xinlan, or there would be no food.
Grain and grass are so important, Zhou Yu will not give up easily, Cheng Xinlan thought very clearly in her heart, as long as she can have the opportunity to get along with Zhou Yu, she will definitely be able to take him down, whether it is body or mind.
After cleaning up, Cheng Xinlan calculated the time, and it was time to go and say good morning.
In the main hall, Zhang and Cheng De were already having breakfast, they didn't expect Cheng Xinlan to get up so early, and she fainted from crying yesterday, why did she look so energetic today......
"Daddy, mother, my daughter is giving you good morning." Cheng Xinlan, who finished the salute, immediately jumped in front of them like a rabbit, "Wow, wow, my father's breakfast today looks too tempting, hurry, give me dishes and chopsticks." ”
Cheng Xinlan didn't notice Cheng De and Zhang's abnormality at all, both of them had a pair of dark circles on their faces, and they were thinking about infinitely troublesome things.
"Did my daughter sleep well yesterday?" Cheng De took a piece of mung bean crisp from the plate and put it in Cheng Xinlan's bowl.
"It's not good, it's not good at all, I have a headache, in the middle of the night, I woke up several times, and I woke up with sweat, I had several nightmares......"
Those aggrieved eyes were as pure as those innocent children, and Zhang looked at his daughter like this, and a burst of pity surged in his heart.
Ruyi held back a smile on the side, if Miss really didn't sleep well like this, then who was the Miss who snored all night last night?
Of course, she is not a fool, so she will not betray her own young lady.
Cheng De wanted to speak, but Zhang took a piece of meat and stuffed it into Cheng De's mouth, "Master, taste this meat, it's very tender." ”
He knows what the Zhang family means, but it's not a way to hide it, how long can he hide it?
Even if Cheng Xinlan can cry, go on a hunger strike, and do many things they don't expect...... That must also be said sooner rather than later.
"Madam, what should be made clear, sooner or later. Don't stop me. Cheng De looked at Zhang's gaze, with more certainty, he wanted to comfort her and reassure her that even if the sky fell, Cheng De would hold it for her.
"Daughter, yesterday your father and I went to the General's Mansion again, and General Sun told me that the matter of grain and grass has been settled by them."
Cheng De's tone was very gentle, he was afraid that if he said the wrong word, he would immediately detonate Cheng Xinlan.
"Father, what do you mean by saying this to me?" Cheng Xinlan put down her chopsticks, frowned, and suddenly became nervous.
Looking at Zhang's again, she has been immersed in drinking porridge, but she is silent.
"Before I could say anything, General Sun told me that they had food and grass. You say, everyone has food and grass, how can I speak again? So, Dad didn't say anything, and ran back in disgrace. Our family's grain and grass will not be needed by others. ”
In order to hide his nervousness, Cheng De also picked up the bowl of rice porridge in front of him and drank it.
"Don't use it? How is it possible, in just half a day, where did they go to get so much grain and grass? Dad, did you secretly send grain and grass over! You didn't mention a word about me and Zhou Yu's marriage! ”
Cheng Xinlan understood at this time, what her father meant was that since people didn't want Cheng's grain and grass, then her father couldn't use marriage as a condition, so the matter of their marriage could only be wasted......
"Daughter, daughter, how can my father take his daughter's happiness as a child's play, if you don't believe it, you can go to the granary to check and see if the grain and grass are transported away?"
Looking at her father's look that I deceived you and I will no longer be surnamed Cheng, Cheng Xinlan realized that things couldn't be done.
As soon as the chopsticks were thrown, the bowl was also thrown on the desk, and Cheng Xinlan stood up with both hands.
"How can this be true? He would rather give up this free grain and grass than me! No! This is definitely not Zhou Yu's decision! He is a man, how could a man not want to take a concubine! It must be the Nahashi clan! It's that who is behind the scenes! ”
After shouting this, Cheng Xinlan ran back to her house angrily, she locked herself in that room, it was useless for anyone to call the door, she just didn't come out......
