Chapter 13: The Mysterious Scroll (1st Update)
Cheng Yan simply dealt with the bruises that were hit, although it was still obvious, but it was still flawed for his overall facial features, he nodded to the red ginseng, and then entered generously, kneeling down to give Mrs. Cheng a big salute and said, "Zongyu greets grandmother." β
The man said lightly: "Get up and show your grandmother." β
Cheng Yan got up as he said and slowly raised his head.
Mrs. Cheng is the first time she has seen this child, after all, although Guogong Mansion and Shanhua Mansion are both Cheng families, there is basically no contact, just like two families.
But Cheng Yunyang had already planned to succeed Cheng Yan, so he asked Uncle Sheng to cultivate him privately since he was a child, and now seeing this child grow into a handsome young man who is as beautiful as jade, she is very pleased and said: "Good look, and understand the rules." β
Cheng Yan said: "Thank you grandmother for the compliment." β
Aunt Meng looked at Cheng Yan, and scolded herself for three days in vain, and saw the black blue in his right eye, and asked helplessly: "Zongyu, your injury is fine, it's all to blame for the recklessness of the desert." β
Cheng Yan said calmly: "It's okay, aunt don't worry." β
But he didn't say much about today's events.
Mrs. Cheng was tired for a day, so she said, "In this case, Zongyu, you should go back first." He added, "Can you bring someone from Shanhua Mansion to serve?" β
Cheng Yan called a man and a woman to come up and introduced: "Grandmother, this is Xin Yi and Baiguo, grandchildren, fathers and mothers have died early, and they have always been taking care of them. β
Aunt Meng hurriedly reminded: "The uncle is gone, but the eldest lady is still there." β
She is asking Cheng Yan to remember that her current father and mother are Cheng Yunyang and Gu, not Cheng Yunchong and Yao in Shanhua Mansion, it doesn't matter if you are mistaken, it is not good to be chewed by someone.
Mrs. Cheng said: "Don't embarrass the child, you have to adapt first." β
Ji's eyes, who hadn't spoken for a long time, turned his eyes slightly, leaned over and said tentatively: "Old lady, can the matter of Zongyu's child going to the village to follow him be arranged?" β
Mrs. Cheng naturally knew what she meant, it was not easy to succeed Cheng Yan, Cheng Yunduo must have been scolded by Aunt Meng for three days, if Cheng Yan was called to the village so quickly, that person was afraid that he would turn his face.
"No need, let's talk about it in the summer." She said.
Ji Shi really breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at Cheng Yan with a somewhat smug expression.
But the boy was as steady as a rock, unmoved.
Mrs. Cheng liked his stability very much, and nodded: "Good boy, go back and rest first." He also instructed Zhou's mother, "It's hard to go around in the house, you take him back, and by the way, pass the word down, just say that it's too noisy today, and the night food will be eaten in your room, so you don't have to come to the Wuyuan Courtyard." β
"That's right."
She remembered something again, and said: "The Xunming Mansion in that county sent a camel's hoof soup, and sent some to these children during the night meal, but don't give it to the girl in the Tinglan Water Pavilion, the punishment is the punishment." β
Zhou's mother did as she was told.
β¦β¦
Xijing Pavilion's night food in the evening was eaten with Cheng Lan and Cheng Dai in the main room, but fortunately, the two of them did not exclude the crowd, especially Cheng Lan, who was very sorry for Cheng Qi's glance.
Cheng Yan's arrival is actually a good thing for them.
has one more brother against Sanfang, and he is more likely to get back the business of the seven villages.
Moreover, because the succession has long been decided, they have had a little contact in private in recent years.
After the night meal, Cheng Yan returned to the left wing, he called Xin Yi and Bai Guo to rest, stood alone in front of the bookcase in the back room, and took out the scroll in his arms.
At that time, after he was stunned by Cheng Qi's punch, Uncle Sheng put this thing away and gave it to him not long ago, but this scroll could not be opened by anyone except him, so he was not worried that the content would be taken away by Uncle Sheng.
In addition, this thing is exquisite and luxurious, maybe I think I am using it to collect, I can't say,
Although the Cheng family of Shanhua Mansion is not as good as the Guogong Mansion and the East Mansion, it is also famous far and wide.
Place the scroll on the table and open it slowly.
The gold-woven cloth was empty, with only two lines of words.
ββOn the seventh day of July in the twelfth year of Tianxi, the mountains and rivers are full of doubts, and the willows and flowers are bright and another village.
ββApril 19, the 17th year of Tianxi, he met his old acquaintance in a foreign land.
Cheng Yan's pupils slowly narrowed when he saw the second line of words.
So many years.
So many years!
Finally, the second line of words appeared!
It is precisely because of the appearance of the second line of words that this scroll will suddenly become hot, and he will be in a hurry to take it out, Cheng Qi will mistakenly think that he is doing something, and his eyes will be blue.
But none of that matters.
So many years...... What a year it has been!
Finally, it's no longer that lonely, unsettling line.
Cheng Yan couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, he actually burst into tears, stretched out one finger and gently wiped it away, closed the scroll back again, took a deep breath, and wondered: "What does it mean to meet an old acquaintance in a foreign land." β
He was a little confused for a moment.
Sitting on the round stool, Cheng Yan pointed at the table with his slender fingers, and muttered, "Could it be because I came to the Guogong Mansion again?" Shaking his head, "No way, if that's the case, this second line should have appeared a long time ago, why make me wait so many years." β
"Is it because of Cheng Qi?"
Cheng Yan frowned slightly, thinking of that person's crazy behavior today, he suddenly felt that the future was elusive, and a strong sense of uneasiness came to his face, and he slowly clenched his fists against his chin.
"This punch made me so suspenseful."
"How did she suddenly become like this?"
"Eat dead rats?"
"It wasn't like that before."
"Tastes have changed?"
β¦β¦
At the same time, when Cheng Yan couldn't sleep, Cheng Qi of Tinglan Water Pavilion was also tossing and turning in bed, she was very angry that she couldn't successfully cross back, and the girl who was held hostage by gangsters was still uncertain.
As soon as he recalled the girl's panicked eyes, Cheng Qi wanted to hurry back.
It's only been half a month, and I've been locked up twice.
"Girl, let's eat some night food, at least eat this bowl of flax rice, if you don't eat it again, it will be cold."
Qingdai came upstairs and saw that she hadn't eaten yet, so she persuaded worriedly.
Cheng Qi asked directly: "Have you eaten?" β
Qing Dai subconsciously shook her head.
Cheng Qi pointed to the food on the wooden plate: "You eat." β
Qing Dai hurriedly waved her hand and said: "How can there be a reason why the master doesn't eat slaves, don't scare slaves, girls." β
Cheng Qi stretched his face: "You eat." β
Qingdai couldn't tell her temper now, so she had to obediently pick up the meal and eat it.
Cheng Qi took out an object from the drawer of the makeup, it was the corner of the clothes, the last time Cheng Shu talked about the satin village, she remembered that she could go to the satin village to ask, the embroidery and patterns on the corners of the clothes.
Even if she wants to go back, she has to help the original owner find out who scratched her face.
You can't take someone's body in vain and ruin their reputation.
Moreover, she is now more and more curious about the various cats in this mansion.
It looks like a lot.
Cheng Qi came back to his senses: "By the way, Qingdai, who is the person I hit today?" Why haven't you seen it? β
And there is no memory of the original owner.
Qing Dai raised her head and swallowed the food in her mouth: "Yes...... Young Master Cheng Yan. β
Cheng Qi frowned: "Is that Cheng Lou?" β
Qing Dai nodded, a little embarrassed: "The girl is not easy to do today." β
Cheng Qi bit his lip, pulled the quilt and lay down.
It is not a loss to shoot at a glance.
Anyway, I already know the way to go back.
ββββββββ
At two o'clock in the afternoon, there was a more talk
