Chapter 235: The Problem of Generation

"Xiaoran's mother and I are like sisters, both of us are people who have come through hardships together, and she is my only relative."

After listening to this, Zhou Qing smiled slightly.

"Then why hasn't Mrs. Chen contacted her all these years, Yucheng is not very far from here, so she should be able to come and go often."

Zhou Qing is very curious about this, if it is really as Mrs. Chen said, it is impossible not to contact for seven or eight years.

Mrs. Chen sighed when she heard this.

"Actually, I've not been very good over the years, I don't want to bring my unhappy things to her, if you hadn't saved Yin'er last time, the consequences would have been unimaginable, and I would have to thank you for this matter."

Zhou Qing heard her talk about this matter, so he asked, "Is that really the second young master of the Chen family that day?" ”

Mrs. Chen nodded.

"Originally, this matter was a family scandal, so it was not suitable to tell you, but I won't hide it if you already know something. Over the years, the old man has been raising an outer room outside, and he is a son, so I haven't slept a good night over the years. I can't leave my two children alone, that's why I didn't contact Xiaoran's mother. ”

Mrs. Chen's words seemed to be explaining, and the dignified Mrs. Chen explained to him that she was lowering her posture, and it seemed that she was really suffering.

"Now that Xiaoran has no father and no mother, I, as an aunt, must protect her, I know that there are many people looking for her, including my master. But don't worry, I won't let them hurt Xiaoran. ”

"It seems that Mrs. Chen is sincere to Xiaoran, but I still hope that Mrs. Chen will not go to her, just treat her as if she is dead. After all, there are people around you who are not good for her, for the sake of Xiaoran's safety, please ask Mrs. Chen not to go to her. ”

"Don't worry, I've thought of this, I won't go to her myself." Mrs. Chan smiled.

"That's fine." Zhou Qing said.

……

Chen Yin came over with the fresh fruits brought back by Chen Menghui, walked into the yard and saw the grandmother in the yard with a smile on her face.

"Mama, this is the grapes brought back by the eldest brother, these are for you to taste, and I will take the rest to my mother."

Mama said thank you, and then stopped Miss.

"Miss, Madame is resting, why don't you give this grape to the slave maid, and wait for Madame to wake up and then give Madame something to eat?"

Zhou Qing in the room frowned slightly when he heard the voice.

When Mrs. Chen saw him here, she didn't want Xin'er to come in, but if Yin'er saw it, her mind would definitely be ignited again.

Therefore, he chose not to say anything, and let Zhou Qing leave the house after Chen Yin left.

Outside, Chen Yin frowned after listening to Mama's words.

"Mama, is my mother uncomfortable again?" Usually at this time, the mother will not rest, it must be something uncomfortable before resting.

"Madame is fine, Miss rest assured."

"Are you really okay?" Yin'er was a little unconvinced.

Seeing the young lady like this, Mama couldn't help laughing.

"If Miss doesn't believe it, you can go in and have a look, but the lady will only rest for a while, and Miss shouldn't bother with such filial piety, right!"

Chen Yin smiled: "As long as you understand me, then I won't go in, you can keep these for my mother, and when my mother wakes up, you must give my mother to eat, it's very sweet." ”

"Miss, don't worry, Madame is awake, and the old slave will definitely be sent to Madame." Mama said with a smile.

For Miss, she also watched her grow up, filial piety and sensibility, as long as it was a problem related to Mrs. Health, Miss would not bother Mrs. The reason why she said that just now was because she was sure that she dared to say it.

When the young lady heard this, she chose not to bother.

Mama watched the young lady come in, and then she turned and went into the house, and put the grapes that the young lady had brought on the table.

"Madam, this is the grapes that the young lady sent to the filial lady."

"Well, leave it here! You take that portion. She heard it all.

Mama nodded, and took the share that the young lady gave her.

As soon as Mama left, Mrs. Chen said to Zhou Qing.

"Taste the grapes."

"No, I should have left." Zhou Qing stood up after speaking.

"Okay, I'll ask Mama to send you out through the main entrance." Mrs. Chen said.

"Farewell."

The grandmother outside gave the grapes to the maid and walked in when she heard the words of the lady.

"Gongzi Zhou, please come with the old slave."

Zhou Qing nodded and followed Mama out.

Chen Yin, who went and returned, was stunned when she saw Zhou Qing.

"Mama, didn't you say that my mother is resting? Why is Gongzi Zhou here? ”

Mama was a little embarrassed and sneered silently.

Seeing this, Zhou Qing spoke out to relieve her grandmother.

"That's because I have something to say to your mother, that's why Mama will lie to you."

Mama was very grateful when she saw Zhou Qing relieving herself, after all, she was deceiving Miss and being exposed, which hurt Miss's heart very much.

Chen Yin understood, and instead of pursuing Mama, she looked at Zhou Qing.

"Mama, is this sending Zhou Gongzi away?"

"Miss Hui, yes." Mama replied.

"Mama, Gongzi Zhou is my life-saving benefactor, since he has come to the house, he is responsible for leaving good wine and good food to entertain."

"Thank you Miss Chen for your kindness, Zhou still has something to do, come back for this meal another day." Zhou Qing politely refused.

Today, Mrs. Chen just doesn't want to see Chen Yin by herself, he is self-aware. Besides, Chen Yin is not the type he likes, so he doesn't feel the need to have a relationship with her.

"Since Gongzi Zhou has something to do, forget it." Chen Yin was a little lost.

Zhou Qing bowed slightly, walked past her, and followed Mama out of here.

Chen Yin turned his head to look at him, and he didn't look back until he couldn't see it.

Mrs. Chen was at the door, looking at her daughter and waving to her.

"Come to my mother."

Chen Yin in the past.

"Mother." There was grievance in his tone.

"Okay, it's really impossible for you to be with him, your generation is different, you can't be together."

According to the seniority, Chen Yin still has to call him uncle. So something simply impossible.

Chen Yin didn't understand: "Mother, he is obviously only a little older than me, why is he higher than me." ”

"There is no age for generations." Mrs. Chen said with a smile.

"And what should my daughter call him?"

"Uncle." called like Xiaoran, she didn't say this to her daughter.

Chen Yin frowned, a little difficult to accept.

Mrs. Chen rubbed her daughter's head.

"Okay, didn't you bring grapes to my mother? Go in and eat with your mother. ”

Chen Yin nodded: "It was given to me by my brother, saying that my sister-in-law wanted to eat, he got some back, and then divided some with me." ”

"Your brother will think about you for everything, and if you have nothing to talk to your sister-in-law, you should be helping your brother."

Chen Yin nodded and said a little perfunctorily: "Got it." ”

Mrs. Chen smiled and led her inside.

Here, Zhou Qing walked to the door and met Chen Menghui who came back.

"Mama, who is this?"

"Young Master Hui, this is Gongzi Zhou."

"Zhou Qing?" Chen Menghui blurted out.

Zhou Qing smiled: "Young Master Chen." ”

It's kind of a hello.

Chen Menghui smiled: "Thank you Gongzi Zhou for saving my sister, since you came to the house, why don't you stay for dinner?" ”

"Thank you Young Master Chen for your kindness, Zhou has something to do, and it is inconvenient to stay."

"Since that's the case, that's it, then I'll invite Zhou Gongzi another day."

"Okay." After Zhou Qing finished speaking, he looked at Mama and said, "Mama stays." ”

Mama nodded, watching Zhou Qing leave, she also planned to go back.

"Mama, please stay." Chen Menghui called.

Mama put down the steps she had raised, turned her head to look at Young Master Chen, and asked, "What is the matter with Young Master?" ”

"What did my mother invite Zhou Qing to come to the house for?"

"It should be for Miss's business."

"Yin'er?" Chen Menghui frowned, "Could it be that Yin'er thinks about him again?" ”

Mama sighed, and then said to him: "This is not the place to speak, if the young master wants to know something, he can directly ask Madame, the old slave is inconvenient to say, please understand the young master." ”

"Okay, then I'll go with you." Chen Menghui said.

"Mademoiselle is at Madame's at this time." Mama wanted to tell the young master in advance.

Chen Menghui nodded to indicate that he understood.

Just to confirm my sister's thoughts in person, my sister finally likes someone, and he feels that this matter must be paid attention to.

I took a cursory look just now, and the person looks good, a talent, and his speech and demeanor are also passable, but what background does he have to investigate. He is such a sister, and he must be taken care of.

When I came to the Plum Courtyard, Mama went in with Chen Menghui.

"Madam, the young master is here."

When Mrs. Chen heard Mama's words, she immediately turned around.

"Meng Hui is here, come and sit."

Chen Menghui went in, looked at the grapes on the table, and asked, "Are grapes sweet?" ”

"Sweet, it looks fresh, where did you get it?" Mrs. Chen remembered that no one was growing around Fengyu Town, so the grapes would not be so fresh.

"The one brought back from Yucheng by the trustee is kept fresh with ice."

"No wonder it looks like freshly picked grapes, this taste is just right for people with bodies, by the way, did you come back to see Yu'er?"

"No, I'll go later." Chen Menghui looked at his sister after speaking, and then said, "My son met Zhou Gongzi just now, I don't know what my mother came to him for?" ”

Hearing Zhou Qing's words, Chen Yin's face was a little unnatural.

"Nothing." Mrs. Chen said with a smile.

Chen Menghui frowned, and when he saw that his mother didn't say anything, he didn't ask.

"Then my mother and sister use it slowly, I'll go see Yu'er."

"Yes, go ahead!"

"Wait, brother, I'm with my brother." When Chen Yin was leaving, she picked a grape and stuffed it into her mouth.

Mrs. Chen looked at her daughter like this and smiled.

******

The brother and sister walked out of the plum garden, and Chen Menghui asked his sister.

"Do you like that Zhou Qing?"

"Brother, what are you talking about? Why can't I understand? Since listening to what her mother said just now, she decided to take it away.

"Don't be sloppy with your brother, your brother is the one who watched you grow up, and it's obvious that you look like this."

Chen Yin's whole body relaxed, and she pouted.

"Brother, I really like him, but my mother said that his seniority is higher than mine, and it is impossible for us to be together."

"Seniority?" Chen Menghui frowned, feeling very strange.

"Well, my mother said I should call him uncle." Chen Yin didn't believe it, but her mother said it, so it should be true.

Chen Menghui frowned again, feeling that it was a bit complicated, his father's brothers were dead, and there could be no uncle.

So the question is, where did Zhou Qing's uncle come from?
