At the gate of the Second City stood a strange girl.

Petite, with a round face and round eyes, he looks very well-behaved.

Coupled with the baby fat that has not faded, it feels like it is not old at a glance, and it makes people full of desire to protect.

It is better to say that she is eccentric, but her clothes are obviously different from the people who come and go around her, and standing at the gate of the city where people come and go, it is even more different.

She was dressed in a goose yellow dress, the hem of the skirt was embroidered with a light blue pattern, but it only reached below the knee, revealing most of the white and tender calves, the sleeves were as long as the wrists, but I don't know what material it was, although the arms were clothed, but the skin of the arms could be faintly seen.

The people around him basically wore long-sleeved and long skirts, and the wide skirts of their clothes covered their arms and legs, and except for their faces and hands, there was rarely excess skin exposed to the air.

The girl seemed to realize that she was not dressed properly, and tilted her head, but she did not feel disturbed, but just stared at the high gate.

"Two cities?"

The girl whispered the name of the city, and pouted,

"I don't know who got this strange name of the city."

Feeling more and more eyes staring at her, the girl blinked, and her figure gradually disappeared in front of everyone's eyes, but the people around her didn't seem to notice.

The person who was staring at the girl also seemed to be distracted, scratching his head, not knowing what he was just looking at.

At the door of the second city Cheng -

A little girl in a goose yellow dress appeared at the door of Cheng's house, with long sleeves and long skirts, similar to the people around her, and it was the strange girl who had just appeared at the gate of the city.

The quaint and heavy gate was open, but there were two guards with knives standing at the door, all with a bad aura, which made people dare not approach when they looked at it.

"Is this the Cheng family?"

The two guards glanced at her, and even though the girl in front of her seemed harmless, they didn't let their guard down.

"Idle people, etc., don't approach!"

The girl had taken a few more steps, and when she was only five or six paces away from the guard on her left, the guard began to draw her sword.

"Stand back! Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude! ”

"Then tell me, is this the Cheng family? Cheng Gui's Cheng family? ”

"Presumptuous! Don't call the head of the house by his name! ”

The two guards drew their swords at the same time, and the tip of the knife pointed directly at the girl in front of them.

The girl pouted:

"It's so fierce, it's not friendly at all......"

She took out a silver token from her sleeve and waved it in front of the two of them.

"This is your brand, I'm looking for Cheng Gui...... The head of the Cheng family said that I was his granddaughter and asked him if he could see me? ”

When the two guards saw the token, their faces changed, but they didn't let anyone in immediately, but their tones eased a lot.

No, very much.

"The girl is here later, and I'll wait until I go in and inform the master."

But in a moment, a group of people appeared behind the door, and the person headed by him was burly and bearded, giving people a feeling of not being angry but threatening, it was Cheng Gui, the head of the Cheng family.

"It's a bit fierce......"

That was the girl's first impression of the man.

"Do you know Cheng Fu?"

Cheng Gui stood at the door and stared at the girl for a long time before asking.

"That's my daddy!"

The girl's voice was crisp and not timid.

"Your father?"

Cheng Gui snorted lightly, "It's a good thing, I've been missing for eighteen years, and I won't come back, but I'll send my daughter back!" ”

Listening to this tone, there was no doubt that he wanted to recognize this girl.

"What's your name? What about Cheng Fuxian? ”

"Ding Sese. Dad and Mom are in a far away place. ”

The girl, that is, Ding Sese, mentioned her father and mother with a bit of obvious grievances and sighs in her tone.

Cheng Gui's expression froze, and the gaze that fell on Ding Sese's body deepened a little.

"If you don't have a surname, Cheng has someone else's surname! Come on in. ”

Ding Tser jumped forward two steps and followed behind Cheng Gui:

"You are Cheng ...... My grandfather? Why doesn't it look like Daddy? ”

Cheng Gui didn't look back, and walked forward, but he didn't answer Ding Sese's question.

"Why don't you have the surname Cheng?"

"My father lost the fight with my mother, and I have my mother's surname."

"Hmph, Izumi...... I will take you into the ancestral hall, if you are really the blood of the Cheng family, the genealogy will recognize your identity. ”

"Ah, I thought with my face, you wouldn't doubt me."

Cheng Gui's tone was light: "It's just rules." ”

Ding Sese pouted: "The temper is really the same as what Daddy said." ”

Cheng Gui no longer answered, and led people straight into the ancestral hall, where there were already people guarding the ancestral hall, waiting for Cheng Gui and them to arrive.

The hall was full of tablets, and on the table in the center was a thick booklet with a silver pillar next to it, similar to the token that Ding Seser had taken out earlier.

"Squeeze the blood into the column on the table."

Ding Sese stepped forward without asking too much, picked up the knife on the table and stabbed his fingertips, dripping blood above the column.

After the blood was smeared, someone immediately stepped forward and handed Ding Sese a bottle of ointment, and after applying it, the wound on his hand was visibly healed.

And the booklet on the table gradually reacted.

The book glowed with purple light, and it was windless and automatic, turning page by page, but in a few seconds, the book stopped turning.

Ding Sese's eyes were sharp, and he saw that Cheng Fu's name was written on the page, and his own name gradually appeared under Cheng Fu's name.

It's just that his father's name is gray with his own name, and the names of the others on that page are golden.

Cheng Gui just glanced at it, and then took Ding Sese out of the ancestral hall.

"Are you sure I'm my daddy's daughter now?"

Cheng Gui nodded: "Tomorrow I will announce that you are the fifth lady of the Cheng family, and you will temporarily live in the guest house today, and your residence will be cleaned up tomorrow."

Floating, come here. ”

Behind Cheng Gui, a middle-aged woman in a dark dress stepped forward and blessed Ding Sese.

"Piaoxi is an old man who follows your grandmother, you can just call your aunt. She will tell you about the situation and rules in the Cheng Mansion, listen well. The rest, when the people in the mansion come tomorrow, let's talk about it. ”

Cheng Gui didn't stay long, took Ding Seser to the door of the guest house, and left.

Aunt Piao Su had a smile on her face and a loving face: "Fifth Miss, it's almost noon, the old slave has prepared some meals for you, and hot water has also been prepared, are you going to wash or eat first?" ”

"Let's eat...... Auntie, I really didn't find out that I was hungry. The situation in Chengfu, why don't you talk about it while we eat? ”

"Okay, the old slave will have the food brought over. The head of the house notified the old slave late, and he didn't ask your preferences in advance, for fear that it would not suit your appetite. ”

Ding Sese waved his hand: "It's okay, Aunt Piaoxi, I'm not a picky eater, I can eat anything." ”

The smile on Piaofu's face deepened: "This is exactly the same as the little young master." The little master ate the same way back then, and the old slave loved to eat no matter what he prepared. ”

"You know my daddy?"

"I know, the little master is also an old slave who has seen it since he was a child. Even if he has disappeared for so many years, I don't know how the little master is doing now? ”

There was a temptation in Piao's tone, the main little girl came, and there was no adult around her, and the look on the face of the head of the family just now was not very good, so that she always had a bad premonition.

"My father and mother went to a far away place, and they said that I couldn't go now, so they asked me to come here to find Cheng...... Grandfather and grandmother. ”
