Chapter 30: The Monkey
The next day, Cheng Qi got up early in the morning, because she was going to treat the Cheng family today, so she dressed up very carefully, and when she heard Qingdai talk about it, she knew that it was not only the Chen family who came today, but also many merchants.
To put it bluntly, it was on the grounds that she was selected to win over each other and win over business or something.
Especially the sentence 'The women of the Cheng family must be the queen when they enter the palace', it is enough for them to stutter.
The huge east courtyard was full of people who ushered in and sent her, and Cheng Qi also visited countless people with Cheng Yunduo, until the afternoon, her smiling face was sour, but she was a little uncomfortable watching the third uncle preside over the house in front of outsiders.
Cheng Yun seized such authoritarian power, and even the Cheng family members of Dongfu and Shanhua Mansion were not allowed to come over.
In the memory of the original owner, Cheng Yunyang died when she was five years old, even if Cheng Qi was an orphan, she could still feel the original owner's expectations and thoughts for her father, which would affect her.
Father's love is like a mountain, Cheng Qi snooped in his heart, and he only felt strange and embarrassed.
She didn't even know who her real parents were.
"Grandma, what do you want?"
Cheng Shu, who was sitting next to her, saw Cheng Qi stunned and asked softly.
She is wearing a water-green shark yarn skirt today, and she is even more like a fairy, just now during the banquet, Cheng Shu is much more dazzling than Cheng Qi, and now Cheng Yun is in charge, so she is held high.
But Cheng Qi was not jealous, his achievements were not as good as others, what was there to fight for.
It's just that she sighed, if a famous talent like her eldest sister Cheng Shu will be on the list, what kind of shocking appearance should Feng Yi be full of Xiping?
In the upper class of Changguo, everyone grew up in a smoky environment, and the Xiangfang business of the Sui Cheng family was excellent, not only did they put spices in the bath barrel and hang incense sachets on their clothes, but also the courtyard houses were fragrant.
Duan Guifei, the most favored concubine in the palace, will not speak to people unless she has agarwood and musk in her mouth.
This Feng Yi is the most powerful, I heard that she was fed an edible spice by her mother since she was a child, and when she grew up, she didn't have to wear a sachet to give birth to a tempting fragrance.
The realistic version of Xiangfei is cool.
It's a pity that such a celestial person doesn't go out, but sometimes the smell of wine is also afraid of deep alleys.
The banquet didn't end here, but Cheng Yunduo didn't seem to want the children in the long house to listen to their merchant elders discussing business matters, so he asked them to go out for a walk, disperse the wine in the banquet, and come back to watch the monkey show later.
"Didn't think about anything."
Cheng Qi prevaricated Cheng Shu's question, turned his head to look at the scenery outside the pavilion, who would have thought that this cloud-like beauty was just a small garden in the Guogong Mansion, and it was strange how many huge industries this Cheng family had that could make Cheng Yun hold on to it like this, and the reason could also be seen.
It's just interesting that all the contradictions in this family are on the surface, presumably if there is no pressure from Mrs. Cheng, it is estimated that there will be a quarrel between the two ends in three days, especially the third aunt Ji, and the word "separation" is almost written on her face.
I can't wait to drive out a few children in the long house immediately and completely occupy the Cheng family.
"I heard that Second Master Chen came to the banquet this time, and he also brought a team of monkeys." Cheng Qi said, "I'll have to perform for us later." ”
Cheng Pei sneered beside him: "What's so good about this." ”
Cheng Qi was lazy, but Cheng Dai retorted: "Yes, where can it compare to the cold drama you love to watch." ”
This is a kind of 'Songkran festival' that is popular in winter, in which a large group of naked Yiren youths, wearing strange masks, dance to the noise of musical instruments, splashing cold water on each other and also splashing onlookers.
The people of Changguo are extremely obsessed with this kind of game, and they never get tired of playing it even if it is immoral.
"Watching those men with bare butts is more interesting than playing monkeys."
This Cheng Dai spoke like a knife, in front of these children, Cheng Pei's face was flushed, and she took two steps forward in annoyance: "Cheng Taiheng!" What nonsense are you talking about! ”
And Cheng Qi said coldly: "Cheng Pei, is this the attitude that you and the children of the long house should have?" ”
Cheng Pei died frowning, and was driven crazy by the harmony between the sister and brother, so she simply took the maid out of the hospital, who knew that as soon as the two went out, they heard Cheng Pei's scream: "Get out!" I don't care about you! ”
When the group heard this, they looked at each other curiously, and they all hurried over.
The banquet of this big family has always been very dirty in private, maybe the son of the family drank too much, and when he saw Cheng Pei's beauty, he couldn't help it for a while and trespassed, which was worth it.
Cheng Shu walked out first, and called out uneasily: "Pei'er? What's wrong? ”
That Cheng Pei walked over and covered her chest for the rest of her life: "Sister Yu'er." ”
Cheng Qi turned around and looked over, only to see a person kneeling on the ground not far away, looking at the clothes that did not look like a guest, and then looking at the gray monkey standing on his shoulder, the gray monkey with his tail hooked around his neck, she immediately understood.
It seemed that she was the artist who performed the monkey today, so she said, "You stand up first." ”
Cheng Pei immediately glared at her: "That monkey almost caught my face." ”
"Didn't you catch it?"
Cheng Qi told the man to get up, and listened to his cramped explanation: "Hello masters, little ...... The villain was a little upset just now, and when he went to the Gong room and came out, he got lost, and the girl came over and shook her hand, which provoked the monkey and told it to be happy. ”
Cheng Jue said curiously: "Shook it off?" ”
The man demonstrated it again, and it was just a very ordinary shaking of his hand, but in his monkey play program, this would anger the monkey, and he relaxed for a while after, and did not tie the monkey to his ankle, and told it to run over and almost hurt Cheng Pei, so he apologized vigorously.
You must know that this huge Cheng family is easier to deal with than to crush an ant.
"Why don't you take care of your monkeys!"
Cheng Pei didn't relent: "I want to tell my father to go!" ”
Cheng Qi frowned and dragged her back: "It's a big fuss." ”
Cheng Pei still had palpitations, so naturally she wouldn't stop there, but when she was about to make a big noise again, she suddenly saw a man in blue walking not far away, his gas posture was very similar to Cheng Lan, he was so dashing, and his facial features were better than that person.
Cheng Qi recognized him, it was Chen Wang, the second son of Chen Erye, he was only seventeen years old this year, but he was in charge of the entire Chen family's dart game alone, and it was said that his martial arts were very high, especially light skills, and he could point water like a dragonfly.
It's just that as soon as Cheng Pei saw Chen Wang, she immediately put away her hideous face, and a little girl's cuteness appeared in her eyes: "Brother Wang, but call us over?" ”
Chen Wangsoft smiled softly: "Yes." Glancing at the monkey man, "Aso, why did you come here, my father is looking for you everywhere, everything is almost over, it's time for you to relieve them." ”
Ah Suo hurriedly nodded and followed behind him, while Chen Wang said to the crowd in the courtyard: "Let's go to the East Courtyard now, look at Ah Suo's craftsmanship, I'm afraid it's all stuffy." ”
Cheng Pei hurriedly said: "It's not boring. Pointing to the gray-skinned monkey, "Look at that monkey, it's so cute." ”
Cheng Qi and Cheng Dai rolled their eyes at the same time.
You're an actor.
