Chapter 8: Curse the Street
"Where do you go further?"
After the cold wind, Cheng Qi shivered and asked in a trembling voice.
Qing Dai's face turned pale: "Yes...... Xiaoxiang Courtyard, our wife and Meng ...... Aunt Meng's residence. β
Cheng Qi was afraid of being like this when Qing Dai mentioned Aunt Meng, and said with a smile: "Then let's go around, if Aunt Meng sees my soup chicken, I'm afraid I will have to pinch you to bloom." β
Qingdai nodded honestly: "Thank you girl for saving your life." β
When Cheng Qi heard her words, she couldn't cry or laugh, and said in her heart how afraid this Aunt Meng is.
Qingdai is a girl born in the Guogong Mansion, and she is very familiar with the terrain here, so she took Cheng Qi to go around from the back door of the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, but saw that the door was hidden, and Aunt Meng's rough voice came from inside.
"Cheng Yunduo! The old lady knows your heart! Don't you just want to monopolize your uncle's family business! The old lady is here today! As long as there is an old lady! Don't dream about it! β
What's going on?
Cheng Qi looked through the crack in the door, and saw Aunt Meng standing in front of the main gate of the Xiaoxiang Courtyard and scolding, and there was an expressionless man standing beside her.
His father's confidant, Dong Sheng.
When the original owner was in Suzaku Tower, he often sent people to visit and inquire.
"Cheng Yunduo!"
Aunt Meng's loud voice pulled her attention back again, she pinched her waist with both hands, and stomped vigorously with her feet: "Since you little hooves want to see it!" It's also a good memory for the old lady! Cheng Yunduo! Don't think the old lady is blind! Tell you! As soon as you pout, the old lady knows what poop pegs you are going to pull! Cheng Lou's succession! Stop it! You can't stop you from having rotten sores on your cheeks! Wait until you die of illness! The old lady goes to your grave and twists it! Hey, old lady, I'm mad at you! β
Cheng Qi listened, his eyes gradually widened, and he sighed: "Aunt Meng is mighty." β
And Qing Dai listened, a little surprised, and pulled her back to change clothes: "Girl, let's go back with the slave quickly, be careful of catching a cold." β
Cheng Qi was in the mood when he heard it, where was he willing to go, and said in his heart that this ancient shrew scolded the street so powerfully.
What's more, Aunt Meng scolded her third uncle.
It's too bold.
Look at this, I've been scolding for a while, and there is no movement on the third room, so I just suffer it in vain.
Strange hey.
And Qing Dai saw that she was so interested, and said helplessly: "Is it the first time for the girl to hear it, my aunt has to come out like this every few days, you better go back with the slave to change clothes." β
Cheng Qi turned his head and said, "Come out like this every few days?" β
Qing Dai nodded: "Aunt Meng is short-tempered, except for the deceased uncle and old lady, as well as our wife, no one is in her eyes." Helplessly chuckled, "It's also a thief." β
Cheng Qi listened, and Aunt Meng scolded again: "Speaking of which, my Cheng family has a big industry!" Xiping has seven village businesses! There is no difference in the amount of two villages! But I want to give you Cheng Yunduo! The old lady swallowed the silver alive at once! If you can't pull it out of your intestines, you won't be able to suffocate to death, and you won't be separated from each other! I don't know how the uncle left! You've been holding it all these years! It's that I haven't caught enough yet! Who wouldn't have a thick face! The old lady scolded you for being a! Don't be embarrassed! β
Uncle Sheng listened with his arms folded beside him, and his face was expressionless, but judging from the action of swallowing saliva, he was also a little unbearable.
Aunt Meng really lives up to her reputation.
Looking at the people coming and going outside the door, he said coldly: "It's almost." β
Aunt Meng scolded for a long time, her face was not red and her heart was not beating, and she didn't breathe, she only wiped her mouth, shook her head and said firmly: "No, if you don't scold that Cheng Lou into the house, you really got the wish of the three rooms." β
She pinched her waist again and scolded: "Cheng Yunduo! You don't need to shrink the room to be the eighth king! Take your daughter-in-law and children to the pile of prostitutes! There is a chance to be the eighth king! Shrink! Go alive and go! β
When Cheng Qi heard this, he was already too cold to stand, and hurriedly went back to Tinglan Water Pavilion with Qingdai.
And at this moment, in the back room of Changyin Pavilion in the North Courtyard, Ji Shi was out of breath, and repeatedly let Hehuan rub his chest and beat his back, trembling and pointing outside: "I said...... You don't care about that slut! β
Cheng Yunduo sat on the circle chair next to him, holding bitter tea in his hand, and exhaled deeply: "She is like this, but she just wants me to agree to Cheng Lou to enter the mansion, and I will endure it to see how long she can scold." He added, "I didn't expect Uncle Sheng, an old fox, to go to her for help." β
As soon as Ji Shi heard this, he got up and walked over unwillingly: "Cheng Yunduo!" You can bear it, I can't bear it, Meng Yun didn't scold the street once or twice, this time he actually put me on the belt! Pacing left and right, "I'm a serious girl!" She is the eldest brother's concubine when she enters the door! Half a minion dares to be so nonsense! β
Cheng Yunduo raised his eyes to look at her: "Meng Yun is so open-mouthed, it is her who is laughing at Xiping, if you go out to confront her a few times now, then you will be the one who is laughing at." "Put down the bitter tea," stop and sit down. β
Although Ji Shi was frivolous, he still knew the overall situation in the end, and sat down according to his words, trembling with anger: "Just let her scold, this spring breeze is big, and her cheap tongue flashed." β
And on the third floor of Tinglan Water Pavilion, Cheng Qi changed into clean clothes, Qingdai helped her wipe her hair, and muttered: "I don't know if Aunt Meng scolded her like this, will the third room agree to the succession." β
Cheng Qi had already heard the ins and outs on the road, but now she was bent on going back, so she didn't care who would inherit the business of the Seven Villages in the future, so she said: "SchrΓΆdinger's cat, I only knew after scolding." β
Qing Dai didn't know who SchrΓΆdinger was, and she didn't care about the cat, she only cared about Cheng Qi's physical condition.
Cheng Qi looked at the gold-inlaid jade armband on his wrist, raised it to look at it, and then asked, "By the way, Qingdai, who is locked up in the Lantai in the North Courtyard?" β
Qing Dai's face froze, and when she realized that Cheng Qi had seen that person, she immediately lowered her head and did not speak.
Seeing the situation, Cheng Qi asked a few more times, and Qing Dai pouted: "The girl knows." β
"I ...... I don't know. β
Cheng Qi pointed to the wound on his forehead, all as a shield: "I hurt my head, I can't remember." β
Qing Dai hesitated for a moment before whispering, "It's locked up there...... It's Chan. β
When Cheng Qi heard this, he searched carefully in his mind, but he still had no clue, it seemed that in the memory of the original owner, this Chen family was vague: "Who is the Chen family?" Is it in our house? β
Qing Dai sighed, and then said the matter.
In Xiping, after the two families got married, if the woman's maiden family had a high status, the man was not allowed to take a concubine, Mrs. Cheng was the county lord of a country, and her grandfather Cheng Bu naturally did not have the courage to take a concubine to fill the house, but the husband and wife got along harmoniously and lived smoothly.
It was only in the second year that Mrs. Cheng's dowry maid took advantage of her entry into the palace, got Cheng Bu drunk, and coaxed Cheng Spruce all night to successfully fill the house, which was the Chen family.
Although she slept and slept, and the child was born, Mrs. Cheng never waited to see her, and Cheng Bu was also suffocated because he was calculated, so when Chen thought that he had given birth to a child and could enjoy the glory and wealth, he was ordered by Cheng Bu to be locked up in Lantai.
For more than 30 years.
Her place remains, but no one recognizes it, and no one wants to remember it.
And because of her, the entire Lantai was abandoned.
Even Cheng Spruce has no status.
After listening to this, Cheng Qi had a very complicated mood.
"You can't live if you do your own evil."
