Chapter 175: Waiting

Cheng Xi's cucumber slice twitched slightly, a little unhappy, and complained in his heart that this bear child really couldn't speak.

As soon as Cheng Xi finished complaining, he heard the hundred years old say, "Sister-in-law has always been beautiful." ”

Cheng Xi, who was originally drooping the corners of his lips, twitched his face under the cucumber slices again, and then the corners of his lips turned up, and he said in a cheerful tone, "The hundred-year-old mouth is really getting sweeter and sweeter, and my sister-in-law dresses her face every day in order to become more beautiful." ”

Children have the most problems, especially children who have just entered school, and they always like to get to the bottom of it, just like the current 100-year-old, "Sister-in-law is beautiful enough, why should she become more beautiful?" ”

Aunt Cui, who had just entered the door, responded with a smile, "Your sister-in-law said that this is called a woman who pleases herself." ”

The hundred-year-old looked puzzled and continued to ask, "What does it mean to be a woman who pleases herself?" ”

Aunt Cui shook her head, "This Aunt Cui doesn't know, she still went to the school to ask Mr. at the age of 100." ”

Bai Sui muttered a few times before he spoke, "I remember, I can ask Mr. Wu tomorrow." "I completely forgot what the topic was.

Cheng Xi watched his skin gradually become fairer and fairer day by day, and the house became more and more bright, the weather was getting hotter and hotter, and it was June in a blink of an eye, but Xu Sanlang not only did not come back, but there was no news at all.

Cheng Xi began to become a little upset, and from time to time he grabbed Awen Awu and said, "Your master won't be in love with the glory and wealth of the capital, so he is reluctant to come back." ”

Of course, Ah Wen and Ah Wu both replied in the negative, saying that their master would never be, it could only be that something was delayed, and at this time they could finally inquire about the situation, Ah Wen saw that his wife was in a hurry, so he proposed to go to Cloud City, there are people from them, and they may be able to inquire about the news of the master.

Cheng Xi waited for a few more days, but finally he couldn't rely on it, so he asked Ah Wen to go to Cloud City.

Only Ah Wen went to Yuncheng and came back, but he didn't bring back the news of Xu Sanlang, but he brought back a piece of news that made Cheng Xi very depressed, that is, Xu Wenyu had made a contribution to the suppression of the rebel party, and now he has become the acting governor of Yuncheng, and when the above news comes down, Xu Wenyu, the position of the governor of Yuncheng, is not far from ten.

Cheng Xi felt a headache when he thought about it, this Xu Wenyu actually climbed higher and higher, what if he didn't let her go?

At this time, Cheng Xi thought in his heart, in such an era, Xu Sanlang's noble identity may still be a little useful? At least there is no need to worry about the oppression of the powerful.

Cheng Xi still didn't give up and asked Awen, "Is there really no news at all?" ”

Ah Wen shook his head, "No, since the master went to the capital last year, there has been no news from Yuncheng, but don't worry, Madame, this Murong clan has finally fallen, and the master will definitely come back soon." ”

Cheng Xi sighed, "I hope." ”

In a blink of an eye, another half a month passed, and Cheng Xi, who was originally looking forward to Xu Saburo's return, also began to become listless, and became more and more worried, and began to like to sit on the newly moved rocking chair on the balcony of the attic, looking at the distance and thinking wildly.

Aunt Cui only sighed when she saw it, originally she also thought that the male protagonist would come back soon as Cheng Xi said, but day after day passed, and she still didn't wait, it was really bitter for Xi'er's girl.

waited day after day, Cheng Xi didn't wait for Xu Sanlang to come back, but actually waited for Xu Wenyu and came over with the officers and soldiers of the brigade, Cheng Xi frowned and looked at so many officers and soldiers, thinking in his heart Could it be that Xu Sanlang had an accident?

Ah Wen and Ah Wu were also vigilantly standing by Cheng Xi's side, they always kept in mind their duties to protect the safety of their wife.

Xu Wenyu got out of the carriage, still with her gentle and decent smile on her face, and greeted Cheng Xi with a smile, "I haven't seen you for a long time, Xi'er is becoming more and more beautiful and moving." ”

If she didn't know Xu Wenyu's mind before, Cheng Xi would have thought it was flattery when she heard Xu Wenyu praise her for her good looks, and wanted to please her and get something from her.

But now that he knows Xu Wenyu's dirty thoughts, and his current identity has no need to please and flatter her, hearing Xu Wenyu say such things, Cheng Xi will only want to vomit in disgust.

Cheng Xi tried to resist the urge to spit out to him on the spot, and responded lightly, "Fourth Uncle Xie praises." ”

Xu Wenyu walked towards Cheng Xi with steps, and continued, "During this time, the fourth uncle was so busy that he couldn't take a break, and he didn't have a chance to come to see Xi'er, how is Xi'er doing recently?" ”

Cheng Xi pretended to take a few steps back inadvertently, got as close as possible to Ah Wen and Ah Wu, and said, "Thank you Fourth Uncle for your concern, as long as no one comes to disturb you, Xi'er will always be fine." ”

Xu Wenyu had already arrived in front of Cheng Xi at this time, glanced at Awen Awu behind Cheng Xi, and was looking at her with a wary face, his eyes flashed slightly, so he pretended to take steps to look east and west, and only walked to the side of the officers and soldiers he brought before he spoke, "Well, this orchard bears fruit is a good scenery, but this is the countryside, Xi'er, today the fourth uncle is specially here to pick you up to Yuncheng, and now the fourth uncle is the governor of Yuncheng, and there is a mansion in Yuncheng, and our Xu family will move over." ”

Cheng Xi frowned slightly, and said, "Thank you for the kindness of the fourth uncle, Xi'er has already said that Xi'er likes the orchard of this pear flower village, so she won't follow the fourth uncle to Yuncheng, but the fourth uncle can ask the uncle if he is willing to go." ”

Xu Wenyu's eyes grew cold, and he said, "They took advantage of the official's absence to break away from the Xu family, since this is the eldest brother's idea, the official can only respect the eldest brother." ”

Cheng Xi listened to Xu Wenyu's obviously tougher tone than before, frowned slightly, and said, "Xi'er also wants to stay in this Pear Blossom Village, it's not like going to Cloud City at all, can the fourth uncle also respect Xi'er's thoughts?" Xi'er is here now to thank the fourth uncle. ”

Xu Wenyu really said directly, "No, you are the daughter-in-law of the Xu family, San Lang has not been there, you are a woman who does not stay with your mother-in-law's family, and you also have an unclear relationship with some young men, this is really damaging to the face of the official, so you must go to Cloud City with the official." ”

Cheng Xi heard Xu Wenyu say this, so he couldn't help but be annoyed anymore, "Fourth uncle, don't talk nonsense, Xi'er thinks that Xu Sanlang has definitely not done anything against women's morality in the past few years when Xu Saburo is away." ”

Xu Wenyu snorted coldly, "It is rumored outside that you and that Yu Zhaocai are rumored to be impressive, no matter whether the official is true or not, you have to follow the official to Cloud City and stay in the Xu family's house obediently." ”

Cheng Xi can see that this Xu Wenyu was not soft before, but now that the official is big enough, there is nothing to be afraid of, this is going to be hard with her.

Cheng Xi's eyes narrowed slightly, "What if I don't go?" ”

Xu Wenyu glanced at Awen Awu behind Cheng Xi, and said coldly, "I know that there are several powerful guards around you, but you have to think clearly, they can protect you for the time being, but can they protect the people in your orchard and grange, can they protect the people around you, can they protect the people of the Cheng family?" ”

This * naked threat made Cheng Xi angry in her heart, but she was also a little helpless, indeed, Awen Awu's martial arts are powerful, but there are only two of them, at most they can only protect her, protect her and then what? On the run? And the hundred-year-old Xu Lan, what about them? And what about the Cheng family who have always cared for her? If Xu Wenyu pointed the finger at them, what should he do?

Cheng Xi was secretly annoyed in his heart, this Xu Sanlang, he won't come back after the matter is done, and if he doesn't come back, his daughter-in-law will be arrested.

After weighing it again and again in his heart, Cheng Xi gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll go to Cloud City with the fourth uncle, but they are Xu Sanlang's guards to protect me, and someone must follow me." ”

Xu Wenyu looked at one or two people, thinking that he couldn't make any waves if he followed alone, and when he arrived at his territory, were he afraid that he wouldn't be able to clean up one person?

So Xu Wenyu finally smiled and responded, "That's right, what's wrong with going to Cloud City, with the fourth uncle here, it will definitely not let Xi'er suffer the slightest grievance, since Xi'er wants to take someone to rest assured, then take it, the fourth uncle also has something to deal with, so he came back to the county seat, since Xi'er agreed to go to Cloud City, let's go with me." ”

Cheng Xi opened his mouth and responded, "You have to pack a little luggage simply, why don't you wait a little while for the fourth uncle, and then talk about the orchard here, you have to explain it, right?" ”

Xu Wenyu's eyes flickered, "Otherwise, the fourth uncle will leave two people for you to help you take care of this orchard?" ”

Cheng Xi secretly scolded shamelessly in his heart, and actually wanted to hold the orchard in his hand, but he said in his mouth, "This doesn't bother the fourth uncle, I will send someone to take over when I leave." ”

Xu Wenyu thought to himself, when everyone becomes his, won't this orchard become his bag? So he was no longer in a hurry at this time, and answered, "Okay, give you half an hour, go and clean up, the fourth uncle is waiting for you here." ”

When they arrived at the house, Aunt Cui's Xu Lan and Xiong Da and others all looked at Cheng Xi anxiously, Xu Lan said with red eyes, "What should I do, third sister-in-law, do you really want to go with him?" Why don't we fight with him? ”

Originally, Xu Lan didn't know what his fourth uncle thought about Cheng Xi, only Xu Lan married Ah Wen, and when the two were talking to the pillow, Ah Wen inadvertently revealed it to Xu Lan, and Xu Lan knew about it, so she was so worried at this time.

Cheng Xi sighed and shook his head, and said, "Silly girl, no matter how powerful Awen Awu is, Xu Wenyu is now the governor of Cloud City, even if we can resist now, what about later?" We still have relatives and friends, we can't come with him, you go and pack a few clothes for me. ”

Xu Lan looked at Cheng Xi with a worried face, and didn't move for a while, Cheng Xi urged again, "Why are you disobedient, go quickly." ”
