Chapter 284: Something Happened
"Old lady, you say. The Cheng family is a big family, and this ancestral precept is naturally to be observed. Zheng smiled and said that she would just wait for the old lady to say it herself.
Mrs. Cheng nodded and said: "This Cheng family is a family of merchants, it has gone through several generations to get to such a point, our ancestors said that no matter how many men and women the Cheng family has, this family property can only be handed over to one person in the end, and there is no common operation, let alone whether it is born to a wife or a concubine, it will be treated equally." This generation only left Cheng Ruoyun and Cheng Ruohan two bloodlines, so in the future, the Cheng family's industry will be handed over to one of them. ”
"This is natural, so that we can ensure that the Cheng family's industry is complete, and we all know this." Zheng nodded. It is because of this that the Zheng family and Bai Zhengzhong will do everything possible to hold the Cheng family and want to marry their daughter into the Cheng family.
"There is another one, that is, the descendants of the Cheng family, as long as they are of the same generation, regardless of men and women, all the people who marry cannot be people with the same surname, in order to fear that the Cheng family's property will fall into the hands of the next surname." Old Lady Cheng stared at the Zheng family in front of her as she spoke.
The Zheng family did not look surprised, but nodded one after another and said: "Naturally, the ancestors of the Cheng family naturally abide by it." ”
Old Lady Cheng narrowed her eyes, if she didn't know where Zheng's purpose was before, she would know at this time.
Although the Zheng family is the daughter of an official eunuch, Mrs. Cheng came out of the mall with the Cheng family, and she is naturally shrewd.
At this time, presumably his grandson, Cheng Ruohan, should have had an accident.
Alas. Thinking of Cheng Ruoyun's explanation before, he could only wait, waiting for the Zheng family.
However, it's really a pity, it's a pity that I'm such a good grandson, it's a pity that I'm such a good granddaughter-in-law. All of this is also an injustice, and the person who contributed to this relationship also has an inescapable responsibility.
"Now that Madame Bai knows, then I won't have much more. The emperor's will, as a minister, our Cheng family, naturally cannot refuse. However, the marriage letter was also promised by me, so naturally I will not refuse. In the end, which young lady of the Bai family can enter the door of our Cheng family, it is up to fate. ”
Zheng hung his head, lowered his head, and said, "That's natural, that's natural." ”
Mrs. Cheng continued: "But our Cheng family is not such an unreasonable family, later, I will ask Ruohan to ask, if he and the second miss of the Bai family are truly in love, then I will not break them up, it is still okay to be a concubine." ”
When Zheng heard this, he gritted his teeth and thought about it, but he could only respond with his scalp, and he couldn't help but complain in his heart: You old woman, you want to marry Bai Shuangshuang as your wife, and my daughter as a concubine, hum You think it's very beautiful, how can I be as you want!
Zheng glanced at the time, this procrastination is almost an hour, what should happen, should also happen.
Zheng raised his head and said, "Why don't you do it today." When he first came, he happened to meet Cheng Dagongzi, and he said that Ruohan happened to be at home, so it was better for the old lady to call him over and make it clear to Mingzhu, if he really liked it, let Mingzhu be a concubine, and we would admit it. If I really don't have that meaning, I can let Mingzhu die as soon as possible, and let someone have a family as soon as possible, right? ”
Mrs. Cheng nodded, and pushed the boat down the river: "What you said is also right. After that, he turned to Mama Jiang behind him and said, "I'm sorry for you to go and bring Ruohan and the second miss of the Bai family here, and make it clear in front of me and Mrs. Bai." ”
Mama Jiang nodded, said yes, and left the flower hall.
In the following time, Mrs. Cheng simply closed her eyes and took a nap, while Zheng was also happy to be idle, not talking, knocking melon seeds, waiting for the next good show.
This good show kicked off with the following flurry of panicked running.
"Oh, no, no, no." A maid of the Cheng family hurriedly ran to the room behind the flower hall. The two people in the room were so shocked that they all looked at the maid who came in a hurry.
"What, such a faux pas." Old Mrs. Cheng grimaced and scolded: "Look at you, it's the maid in Ruohan Courtyard, what's wrong?" What about Mama Jiang? ”
The maid lowered her head, but her tone was very anxious: "The words of the old lady on the way back were asked by Mama Jiang to come over." Something happened, and Mama Jiang asked Mrs. Cheng to go and take a look. ”
When Zheng heard this, he almost slapped his thigh and applauded, looking like Mingzhu had succeeded. So Zheng hurriedly got up, pretended to be anxious, and stepped forward and said, "What's the matter?" What's wrong? Mingzhu is still there, could it be that something happened to Mingzhu? ”
When the maid was asked by Zheng, her face was red but she looked at a loss, so she could only bow her head in silence.
"You're talking." Zheng pretended to be very anxious.
However, the old lady Cheng on the seat looked calm, looked at the Zheng family, and then looked at the appearance of the maid, and guessed nine times out of ten in her heart.
said: "Madame Bai, don't worry, go and take a look, and you will naturally know." Seeing this, the maid hurriedly stepped forward to support Mrs. Cheng, and the group walked "hurriedly" towards Cheng Ruohan's courtyard.
As soon as I walked to the gate of the courtyard, I saw a few people surrounded by the door of the courtyard, and there was a commotion inside.
Mrs. Cheng frowned and walked in, while Zheng followed behind Mrs. Cheng and walked in.
As soon as Mrs. Cheng entered the courtyard, Mama Jiang hurriedly greeted her, took Mrs. Cheng's arm, and whispered to the maid beside her, saying, "You go out, let others not come in, if they know, let them keep their mouths closed." ”
"Yes, yes." The maid nodded lowly, and hurried out of the courtyard.
"What's wrong?" Mrs. Cheng asked Mama Jiang beside her. Mama Jiang looked a little embarrassed, leaned into Mrs. Cheng's ear, and said, "When I came to call Second Young Master Cheng just now, I saw it, and I saw that the Second Miss of the Bai Family and Second Young Master Cheng had happened, it happened, oops, old lady, you go in and have a look, you will know." ”
Mama Jiang couldn't speak for a while, and the Zheng family, who followed behind, couldn't stand it anymore when she looked at the people in front of her. The Zheng clan simply rushed into the room, only to hear a scream from the Zheng clan inside, followed by a sharp voice: "Cheng Ruohan, you, what happened to Mingzhu." Mingzhu, why are you in Cheng Ruohan's bed, what did you do? ”
Old Mrs. Cheng couldn't help but snort between her noses, knocked on the cane in her hand, and said to Mama Jiang beside her, "Hmph, let's go in and have a look." ”
"Yes, old lady."
