Thank you Piggy and Azure for the monthly pass

———————————————

In the early morning of the next day, the summer sun was warm, shining through the windows and sprinkled on people's bodies.

Although there was an incident of Jia's falling into the water yesterday, the three-day party of the Cheng family still had to continue, but the atmosphere was more or less affected, everyone smiled, but there was a lot of restraint in their eyes.

Cheng Qi fell into the water, so he said that he was unwell and hid in the Tinglan Water Pavilion to rest.

She didn't have to go out to socialize, she smiled until her face was sour, she was still very willing.

She was sitting cross-legged on the tent bed, fiddling with the newly developed perfume in her hand, which was the second best-selling light cloud incense in the incense shop, and the smell after powdering water was somewhat like Chanel.

"Girl, Miss Yu'er is here."

Qingmiao came up with the iced fruit, followed by the slender Cheng Shu, the man saw Cheng Qi's sitting posture, some reproach flashed in his eyes, and he said in a low voice: "Grandma, girls shouldn't sit like this." ”

Cheng Qi himself is still very good at controlling his emotions, patted his knee, looked up and smiled: "How should that girl sit, I can't learn your self-discipline sister." "I gave way to the side to make way for the vacant seat, "I don't need to enter the palace, naturally how comfortable I am, sister, you love me the most, don't come over to train me." ”

Cheng Shu went over and sat down, and when she heard this, she smiled and said, "How comfortable is it?" After a pause, he asked a little awkwardly, "Grandma...... Don't you want to enter the palace? You must know that when you enter the palace, you are a beauty of the four grades. ”

The smile on Cheng Qi's face narrowed, stared at Cheng Shu and said, "Sister thinks, is it good to enter the palace?" ”

Cheng Shu was stunned by her smell, raised her head to meet her motionless eyes, and said a little awkwardly: "Enter the palace...... Naturally, it is a good thing to glorify the ancestors. Swallowing slightly, "But everything, there is a willingness, isn't it?" ”

What she said was quite meaningful, Cheng Qi listened to it, thought for a few seconds, and suddenly asked: "That sister, if someone forces you to do something you don't want to do, will you do it?" ”

Before the words fell, the depths of Cheng Shu's eyes stirred, looking at Cheng Qi with a calm face, she thought for a moment that the person was questioning herself, but after thinking about it, she didn't have any mistakes at all, she wouldn't know.

Perhaps, it was because he was too sensitive that he always felt that Cheng Qi had discovered the truth.

Cheng Shu was comforted like this.

But in fact, Cheng Qi already knows the truth.

Her words seemed to be careless, but in fact, she was asking Cheng Shu on the side, because she really couldn't believe that it was the eldest sister who scratched her face.

It has been a short time since she discovered the truth, and Cheng Qi once thought about it and told Aunt Meng or Cheng Yan about this matter, because only these two people can help her make up her mind.

But then again, she didn't know how to speak, after all, except for herself, Cheng Shu and the three people behind the scenes, everyone thought that her face was accidentally injured by the chair when she fell from the beam of the house.

Now he suddenly told them whether he was deliberately scratched by someone or by Cheng Shu.

Who would believe.

Who would believe it?

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that even if his relationship with Sanfang is not good, he has always maintained a protective attitude towards this cousin, and if he turns against him now, it will only make people feel that they are messing around again.

And the most critical point is that Cheng Qi now knows nothing about Cheng Shu's purpose.

She didn't know why Cheng Shu scratched her face, and the only reason for credibility now was that she, like Han Yi, was instructed by that Duan Guifei.

However, why did Cheng Shu listen to Duan Guifei's words, from scratching her face, to putting maggot grass into the medicine to remove scars and restore her face, to the poison in the untouched gold bracelet......

If it was just a last resort, she should have stopped after scratching her face, but she didn't, what kind of transaction happened between Cheng Shu and Duan Guifei again and again.

Cheng Qi frowned and looked at the sister in front of him, Cheng Shu, Cheng Yu'er, the lady who was the only one in Xiping Nine Cities who was Feng Yi, this person was so flawless, like a fairy in the sky who couldn't find the shortcomings of the human world.

Cheng Qi fell into painful memories.

Because...... Except for scratching her face and the maggot grass, Cheng Shu never did it to herself a third time, even if Duan Guifei gave her a gold bracelet.

She really respects Cheng Shu as her own sister, and that person's attitude and concern towards herself in daily life are also what she should do as a sister.

Cheng Shu is also sincerely good to herself.

Wait a minute.

Cheng Qi reacted blankly, just now Cheng Shu mentioned the matter of entering the palace, is it possible...... Cheng Shu's purpose is not to enter the palace by herself, after all, she attacked twice, and what she rushed was the necessary key to enter the palace by herself - appearance.

If this is the case, then Cheng Shu should not attack himself again.

And this person came today, in addition to the reason why he was really concerned about himself, Cheng Qi felt that Cheng Shu had another layer of deliberately testing her purpose, because when she just discovered the truth, her anger was too obvious.

Cheng Qi has never been a virgin, she prefers to remember the slap in the candy pile than the candy in the slap pile, so no matter what the reason, she will not forgive Cheng Shu for what she did.

However, be limited to reality.

She can't expose Cheng Shu's guilt, and it will make the relationship between Changfang and Sanfang even more tense, which is not a good thing for the entire Guogong Mansion.

It's not yet time to tear your face with Sanfang.

Cheng Qi swallowed his saliva fiercely, because of yesterday's flooding, his throat was still very uncomfortable: "Sister Yu'er, if you don't want to answer, forget it, I don't want to ask." ”

She whispered, and slowly pulled back the hand that Cheng Shu was holding.

Cheng Shuyu's eyelashes trembled slightly, in the dark, she and Cheng Qi seemed to have tacitly understood, looking at Cheng Qi's gradually cold gaze, she was sad in her heart, but she forced a smile and said, "That's good." ”

She caught a glimpse of the porcelain vase in Cheng Qi's hand, and changed the subject: "This is the newly developed incense ......."

"Chanel."

Cheng Qi held it up to her and said with a smile: "How is my sister smelling it?" ”

Cheng Shu took it and sniffed it, her eyes were full of surprise and joy, and she nodded: "It really smells good." ”

"I only took this to Xiangfang yesterday afternoon to sell, I don't know how it sold." Cheng Qi said.

Cheng Shu looked at the porcelain bottle and said lightly: "This tastes so good, the sales will not be bad, don't worry." ”

Cheng Qi nodded and asked Cheng Shu to accept the bottle: "If Sister Yu'er likes it, take this bottle and use it." ”

Cheng Shu didn't pretend to be polite to her, and said with a smile: "Then thank you." Exhaled without a trace, "If you're okay, my sister will be relieved, then you can rest well, I'll go back first." ”

Cheng Qi responded lightly and stopped looking at her.

Cheng Shu's smile faded, and she got up and went downstairs after a few words, and when she arrived on the first floor, she happened to meet Cheng Yan who walked in with a swagger, she frowned slightly, and wondered: "Cheng Zongyu, why are you here?" ”

Cheng Yan stopped, glanced upstairs, and said lightly: "Come and see how Cheng Qi is?" ”

Cheng Shu was not very happy about this person's intimate behavior towards Cheng Qi, and in her cognition, she felt that even if the two were now commensurate with brother and sister, they should maintain a decent sense of distance.

Now it's good that Cheng Yan has the word 'care' promised by Mrs. Cheng herself, so she can go in and out of Cheng Qi's boudoir at will without having to spread it in broad daylight.

It's so unconventional.

Cheng Shu thought in her heart, so she also said out of her mouth: "Grandma is fine, just recuperate, you don't have to go up to see her, come with me to the Wuyuan to say goodbye to the old lady." ”

When Cheng Yan heard this, the fog in front of his pupils gradually dissipated, revealing those two dark and deep eyes, he slowly put his hands behind his back, and he had tasted the warmth and coldness of human affection since he was sensible, so he naturally understood the meaning of Cheng Shu's words.

Of course, what Cheng Shu said is very reasonable from a normal perspective and in this era, but Cheng Yan is Cheng Yan, how can these rules and regulations trap his steps.

"I'll just take a look and leave."

After Cheng Yan finished speaking, he insisted on going up.

Cheng Shu stretched out her arms to stop at his chest, and it was rare for her to smile and ignore the people at the corners of her mouth, and her face was cold: "Cheng Zongyu, didn't you hear what I said." Lowered his voice, "You are not Cheng Lan, that is Grandma's biological brother, such too close will be tongue-in-cheek, you are not afraid of men, but how to deal with Grandma Xiu, secondly." ”

She raised her head and stared at Cheng Yan, and said coldly: "Cheng Yan, I don't care what you think, but you also have to think about Grandma, her boudoir, you still don't want to go in and out at will." ”

These two people were at a stalemate here, but they were frightened by Yueying, who came in with a basin of water, and she heard Cheng Shu's words word for word, and asked herself, her words were not unreasonable.

But Cheng Yan's side ......

"Young Master Zongyu."

Qingmiao came down from the third floor in time and said to Cheng Yan: "Our girl asked you to go up." ”

Cheng Yan smiled at the corner of his mouth.

A trace of helplessness flashed on Cheng Shu's face, as if she was a little annoyed by Cheng Qi's "openness", and stared at Cheng Yan with warning eyes, and then left quickly.

…

…

Cheng Qi on the tent bed looked at Cheng Yan coming up, and clenched his fists uneasily, after experiencing yesterday's strong kiss and stealing kisses, even if that person had a face that both men and women eat, but in Cheng Qi's eyes, it was still those two words.

Idiot!

Shame on you!

After looking at Cheng Qi's cautious eyes, Cheng Yan crossed his arms and smiled: "Why do you look at me like that?" ”

Cheng Qi glared at him, took the soft pillow next to him and hugged him tightly: "You know." ”

"I don't know, you tell me."

Cheng Yan said, and was about to lean over and sit down next to her.

Cheng Qi knew that he couldn't stop him by force, so in a hurry, he took the water cup next to him and sprinkled it all on the bed next to him at once, personally resisting Cheng Yan's behavior of shortening the distance between the two.

And Cheng Yan looked at it and immediately turned cold.

"Who do you have to dislike me?"

He regained his former coldness and disgust.

Cheng Qi breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the situation, and said with a smile: "No, it's because I feel that I am too dirty to sit next to you." The more he succeeded, the happier he became, "Don't get me wrong, don't get me wrong." ”

Looking at Cheng Qi's increasingly sassy smile, Cheng Yan didn't speak indifferently.

And just when Cheng Qi thought that she had made that person suffer a dumb loss, Cheng Yan stepped over, lifted her chin and kissed it, a set of actions that can be called smooth.

"Hmm!"

Cheng Qi stared, and his whole body tensed.

She pushed Cheng Yan away with all her might, staring at the man extremely angrily, judging from the ups and downs of that shoulder, Cheng Qi was really angry this time, she bit her lip and took a deep breath.

"Cheng Yan, have you been crazy lately?" Cheng Qi suppressed the anger in his heart and kept his sanity as much as possible, "It's better to let Ma Pozi give you a jump." ”

But Cheng Yan didn't care very much, reached out and wiped the corners of his mouth, and said with a light smile: "I'm not crazy, soon, soon you will know." His face returned to indifference, "Little brother, I'm amazing." ”

With that, he stuck out his tongue and licked his canine teeth, then turned around and walked out in style.

This can be regarded as completely angering Cheng Qi.

The man's eyes were on fire, and he got up and pounced.

"Ahhhh Let you know now that you know how powerful the old lady is!!! ”

"Oops! Don't pull at my jet-black hair!!! ”

"! Pumiao monks to find out!!! ”

…

…

Just when the two of them were mingling in the Tinglan Water Pavilion, the main hall of the Wuyuan was peaceful, Gu Hang rushed over from Xinyuan, took Zhou's mother's water, and drank it all to quench his thirst.

Mrs. Cheng looked at him and said with a smile: "Duye, the Suishui Wharf has just opened, you have a share, this New Year's Festival is the busiest time, didn't you say, don't you need to come in a hurry." ”

Gu Hang smiled brightly and said, "The old lady is polite, this banquet is a big day." Turning his head to look at Gu's, "What's more, today is my sister carrying the cup, and I'm my younger brother, so I have to come over to cheer anyway, looking at my sister's complexion today, my body is so neat." ”

Gu Shi smiled: "Thanks to the recipe of the desert. After pausing for a few seconds, he turned to Mrs. Cheng and said, "Mother, in fact, today...... I came here with a transfer, but I actually wanted to ...... Let's have a long house as a family, and we get together to discuss one thing. ”

Old Madam Cheng put down the teacup and handed it to Mother Zhou, who was standing silently next to her, from the old lady's perceptive gaze, she seemed to know what Gu was going to say.

Sure enough, Gu Shi opened his mouth and said slowly: "That's the case, mother, you see, the desert is about to turn fourteen years old this year, and it should be the age of the Xu family, according to the general rules, you should choose someone this year, set a marriage contract between the two families, and get married after next year." ”

This is a natural thing, and Gu Hang has no meaning, so he said: "Also, the desert doesn't have to enter the palace now, so she naturally has to choose someone, she messed around for a year last year, and she can't be asked to continue messing around." As he spoke, he breathed a sigh of relief, "I thought the scar on her face couldn't be removed, but now it seems that I am too careful." ”

Gu smiled and looked at Old Madam Cheng again, in order to win the person's opinion.

Even if Mrs. Cheng cherishes her granddaughter no matter how much she cares, but Cheng Qi has reached the age of marriage, she should let it go.

"You siblings are thoughtful."

Old Madam Cheng said: "The desert has indeed reached the age of the Xu family, but ......" looked at the Gu sisters and brothers, and asked, "It's just, just like Du Ye said, last year, the desert was so messy that it offended the Duan Guifei who was in full swing, even if he has a good face, I don't know how many dare to marry." ”

Mother Zhou next to her said lightly: "Xiping knows all the locals, I don't know ......" paused, "I don't know if the eldest lady and Uncle Gu have any suitable candidates, say it and consider it." ”

Gu Hang's eyes really lit up, and he said, "There are indeed a few suitable ones in Xinyuan. He shook his head to himself, "I am familiar with those children, and their character is good, that is, ...... The home is not worthy of the desert. ”

Red Ginseng also said on the side: "Although it is said that marriage is about the right family, but if the girl promises Xinyuan, it will be regarded as a low marriage, in the final analysis, marrying into her in-law's family will not be bullied." ”

Mrs. Cheng smiled: "Bullied? With her temperament, it's good not to bully others. With everyone laughing a few times, and said calmly, "The door is secondary, there is the Guogong Mansion to support her, who dares to show her face because of her background, but then again, as it is so, I still want to give the desert a promise, and she is in love with her, and can speak, otherwise the same bed and different dreams, look at each other and get bored, why bother." ”

Gu Shi nodded reasonably.

Gu Hang himself has no wife and children, so he naturally regards the children in the long room as his own pain, he does not allow Cheng Qi's married life to be unhappy, so he also echoed: "What the old lady said is reasonable. ”

Mrs. Cheng was not in a hurry, so she said: "This has just entered the summer, but there is no hurry, not to mention that Yu'er has not yet promised to match people, since the desert is two, there must always be an order." He took the tea and took a sip, "As soon as the news of our Guogong Mansion looking for a son-in-law is released, someone will definitely come to the door and screen it slowly." ”

After all, on the grounds of exhaustion, I asked red ginseng to send off guests.

After the Gu sisters and brothers left, Mother Zhou helped Mrs. Cheng back to the bedroom, and she said in a low voice: "Old lady, what do you mean by this eldest lady and Uncle Gu, why did you suddenly mention Miss Qi's marriage?" ”

Mrs. Cheng rubbed her temples and said calmly: "You, just with me, I've been in that pickled pile for too long, so I feel tired of watching everything." Cleared his throat, "A mother-in-law, an uncle, what bad intentions can there be, it's just that he cares about Cheng Qi's reputation and wants to find a way out for her earlier." ”

"Yes."

Mother Zhou smiled ashamedly, and then said boldly: "Miss Chongqi was so foolish last year, and she made a feud with that concubine...... If she hadn't been born in the Guogong Mansion, how many people would dare to come to the door. ”

"Still." She looked at Mrs. Cheng, "Old lady, you...... I have already chosen someone in my heart. ”

Old Madam Cheng smiled, was silent at first, and then said: "You go, send the news that Ayun and Du are also going to choose someone for the desert to Xijing Pavilion, and be sure to let the later one know." ”

Mother Zhou responded lightly, and then frowned and expressed the doubts in her heart: "But old lady, didn't you just say that you want to find a person for Miss Qi who can talk to each other?" How ...... it?"

"You don't understand."

Mrs. Cheng said calmly: "You don't know how powerful the years are, two people have to get along with each other for decades, how to maintain it just by relying on that little relationship." After a pause, he drew inferences, "Aren't the old man and the old lady of the East Mansion the best example?" can share the suffering, but there is no way to share the joy, young couples, after all, they have not been able to go through the hurdles of middle age, so it is better to find a husband than to find a confidant, the rest of their lives are long and difficult. ”

She got up slowly, looked out the window, and said indifferently: "My thoughts, they will know later." ”

When Zhou's mother heard this, she bowed her head and left.

…

…

"Young Master!"

Bai Guo hurriedly walked in, and when he saw Cheng Yan, he was startled.

Cheng Yan has a clear scratch on his neck, his hair is messy, and his clothes are torn loosely.

"Young Master...... What are you? ”

Bai Guo asked uneasily, "How did you get this?" Summoned Xin Yi and said, "Did you pick up the wild cat from somewhere, and look at the trouble for our young master!" ”

Xin Yi was so innocent, he reached out and said, "I didn't." Then he suddenly realized, "You said young master." Cautiously snickered twice, "It was beaten by Miss Qi, our girl is really amazing." ”

Bai Guo opened his mouth in surprise, looked at Cheng Yan's cold face, didn't continue to mention it, and then told Cheng Yan what Zhou's mother told her.

"Young Master, Fang Cainu met Mother Zhou on the way back, she said......" Bai Guo hesitated for two seconds, "She said that Uncle Gu came from Xinyuan and discussed with our wife to marry Miss Qi." ”

Sure enough, Cheng Yan, who heard this, was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Really?" ”

"Seriously."

Bai Guo affirmed, and then muttered suspiciously: "It's just strange, when you have a morning meal tomorrow, you can just say no about this matter, and that week's mother specially called the slave to come back and tell you." ”

Hearing this, Cheng Yan's eyes deepened slightly, and he squinted at Bai Guo and said, "Really?" ”

"Yes." Bai Guo said obediently.

"I see."

Cheng Yan sat down, took a sip of the cold tea next to him, thought about something silently, walked to the full-length mirror for a moment to look at his face, and said lightly: "Baiguo." ”

"Young Master."

Bai Guo knew Cheng Yan's narcissism, thinking that the man was worried about the scratches on his face, and hurriedly said: "Young master, don't worry, the slave will go to the pharmacy and ask Zhou Lao Langzhong to prescribe some medicine for you, and it will be fine if you apply it, and it will not leave a scar." ”

"It's not."

Who knew that Cheng Yan vetoed, pointed to his face, and said: "Do you have a way to draw the scratches on my face and neck more conspicuously and more terrifyingly." ”

Bai Guo was stunned for a moment, glanced at Xin Yi, who was also confused next to him, and asked again to make sure that there was no problem with his hearing: "Young Master, what did you say?" ”

Cheng Yan now had an idea in his heart, and said impatiently: "Can you get the scratches on my face...... It's more serious, the kind that makes people look away. ”

Although Bai Guo didn't know Cheng Yan's purpose, he was still busy and said, "Yes." ”

When this word came out, Cheng Yan's brows gradually loosened, and he nodded indifferently.

"That'll do."

He smiled at the corners of his lips.
