It’s really frustrating!! So, let’s get over him!! Thank you, thank you.
*********************************
It was getting dark, and the yard was dim.
Banqin had already washed and dressed neatly. She first went to the kitchen to make porridge, and then came to the door of Cheng Jiaoniang's house. Before she could reach out, the door opened by itself.
Cheng Jiaoniang, who was also neatly dressed, came out.
"Madam, let's go." Banqin said with a smile.
Cheng Jiaoniang raised her feet and took a step forward.
The alley was quiet in the early morning, and the chickens and ducks were still asleep. The dog heard the footsteps and first perked up his ears, but soon fell back and continued to sleep with his head buried in his legs.
When Cheng Ping turned the third circle at the intersection, he saw the woman coming floating in the air. Her dark green cloak, black hair tied behind her back, and white jade-like face that few people would hide in her hood in the early morning contrasted with each other.
Black and white are clear, and it looks like a fairy when you step out of the mist on this winter morning.
"Ms. Cheng, Mrs. Cheng." He greeted her with a smile, "What a coincidence, where are you going?"
Cheng Jiaoniang stood firm the moment she looked at him.
"Yes." She waited for him to finish speaking, then lowered her head and replied, "I'll just take a walk."
Cheng Ping noticed that when she spoke, she took a step back and turned sideways. Not to mention looking up at him, she even lowered her head and did not face her head-on.
This is obviously the etiquette for juniors to face their elders, but it doesn't make sense. Her elders are in the big courtyard over there, and they have been coming and going in the past few days, and she, a junior, has never been seen to greet or see them off.
once.
Cheng Ping twitched the corners of his mouth and smiled stiffly.
Or maybe he was frightened by his own words?
"Ms. Cheng, although I said the second hexagram, I want to calculate it for you again..." He couldn't help but say.
Cheng Jiaoniang lowered her head and gave a brief salute.
"No, you don't have to worry too much, you are right." She said, "No need to think too much, it's my own business."
Cheng Ping touched his head and smiled.
Yes, yes, this lady is so smart, how can a smart person be easily frightened.
"That's disturbing my wife," he said with a smile.
Cheng Jiaoniang avoided his salute, bowed down and said she didn't dare.
Cheng Ping rubbed his head and saw that this lady obviously didn't want to talk to him, so he had no choice but to take a step forward.
After he took a few steps, Cheng Jiaoniang continued to move forward, stepping calmly into the morning mist.
"Maybe I have a special talent and will become a great person in the future. Others can't see it. This lady is smart and has a strange destiny to see it, so she is so respectful to me..."
Cheng Ping was talking to himself, but before he could finish his words, he was hit on the shoulder by a vegetable root thrown from nowhere.
"Brother Ping, you are really good at it."
A woman came out of a nearby room and said with a smile, holding a kitchen knife in her hand.
"I've been walking around here for three days, and it's a coincidence that I met Mrs. Cheng."
Cheng Ping's story spread all over the south with the return of the two women. When they first heard about it, everyone thought that Cheng Ping had offended Mrs. Cheng, but the two women flatly denied it, thinking that not only had they not offended Mrs. Cheng,
She also valued Cheng Ping very much, because if it were you, wouldn't you beat Cheng Ping half to death? But not only did the lady not beat him, she also apologized to Cheng Ping herself.
Mrs. Cheng is now the most powerful and respected person in Nancheng. Those whom she respects, they will naturally respect as well.
With Cheng Ji's decision, everyone unanimously agreed to build a house for Cheng Ping and treated him warmly. However, when Cheng Ping returned, he found that it was different from what he had imagined.
To that lady, it was as if she had never known Cheng Ping, let alone treated him differently.
As a result, everyone's warm respect immediately disappeared, but after all, they would not despise and look down on a little liar like they did before. They did so because they doubted his identity.
Cheng Ping told Mr. Cheng that his grandfather was a member of the Cheng family. When he was young, he went to other places to seek life and settled in Shuzhou. Because of poverty, he was unable to return to his hometown even though he had the intention to do so. He told his father, but his father failed to fulfill his promise again.
He, he came back after a long journey.
"I have three generations of grandparents. I grew up in Shuzhou, but I speak authentic Jiangzhou dialect." Cheng Ping said with tears in his eyes.
Now everyone no longer questions his identity and accepts him as one of his own tribe, so the attitude is different.
"Thanks to you for being brave enough to deceive someone else's wife without fear of being beaten." The woman continued with a smile.
Cheng Ping also chuckled and waved to the woman.
"Madam, you are wrong. This is not a lie. I know this excuse, the lady knows it, and the bystanders also know it. Since everyone knows it, it is an upright thing." He smiled, "There are many things in the world, look at it.
You have to break it, why don’t you say it is broken? If you say it is broken, it will be deceiving and will not be pleasing to people.”
The woman sighed.
"You are right no matter what." She said, waving her kitchen knife, "You can't fill your stomach with words. Do you want to eat vegetable paste?"
Cheng Ping chuckled and bowed his head.
"Thank you, madam." He stood up, "But no need, I'll go to the place where the house is being built to have a look, and maybe give me some advice on Feng Shui or something."
The woman groaned again.
"What feng shui advice is there? Are you going to make a living by selling your words?" she said.
Cheng Ping smiled and walked away without comment.
"The food in the house over there is really good." The woman said to herself, shook her head and continued chopping vegetables. The sound of pedaling broke the tranquility of the early morning. Gradually, there were more and more such sounds, and the crowing of chickens and dogs
Barking, children's noises, and adults' scoldings filled the air, and a new day began steaming.
"...Cheng Jiaoniang, you are shameless..."
A shrill female voice floated out from the yard, and everyone around them couldn't help but frown when they heard it.
"The Cheng family is here again..."
"The eldest master is sick, and it's his own fault. Why do you come here to make trouble for me all day long..."
"My lady is really good-tempered, why do you let them do it..."
"Yeah, just take a bow and arrow and shoot away..."
The low discussion outside did not affect the courtyard. Cheng Liu Niang stood under the porch with a livid face, tears in her eyes, and looked at the woman sitting in the room with uneven breath.
She was leaning on the table, holding the tea bowl, and remained motionless. If she hadn't taken a sip of water occasionally, she would have doubted whether it was a clay statue.
"Now the Cheng family has become a joke in the whole city! Cheng Jiaoniang, your surname is not Cheng!"
Cheng Liuniang shouted, thinking about what happened now, tears couldn't help but fall.
In the past, she was particularly afraid of this idiot, who was afraid of his crooked mouth, squinting eyes, drooling and runny nose. She was frightened twice because of this, and she would also have nightmares at night.
Now she sat in front of this woman. She didn't have a scary face, but she was stunningly beautiful. There was no reason to be afraid, but she felt cold in her heart. That kind of fear would not make her have nightmares, but it would make her wake up suddenly in the middle of the night.
Come here and feel the chill from your bones.
The Cheng family is going to be destroyed...
It became a joke in Jiangzhou Prefecture...
There has been no news from the families who originally said we were going to get married...
In the past, because there was a fool in the family, she would be teased when getting along with others, but that kind of teasing had nothing to do with her and would not really hurt her. Instead, it sometimes made her feel a little proud.
Laugh at and complain about all the unsatisfactory things you encounter.
But it's different now. It's not just a matter of having a fool in the family, it's also a matter of the Cheng family. The Cheng family has been sued by this fool, the government has taken over the case, and the Cheng family's reputation will be ruined.
If there is one person in the family, the Cheng family will be embarrassed at most, but if this family is like this, it will be ruined for everyone.
People only have a home, and they are nothing without a home.
"Cheng Jiaoniang, you must die a happy death!"
Cheng Liuniang shouted and stood up, but she had no chance to rush over. Ban Qin, who was guarding the door, stood up and blocked her. The entourage in the yard who had been on guard for a long time also raised his feet and came over.
"Let me go, you vile things!"
Cheng Liuniang pushed Banqin away, looked bitterly at Cheng Jiaoniang who was still leisurely in the room, turned around, wiped her tears and ran away.
"Cheng Jiaoniang, you bully the family and destroy the ancestors, violate family ethics, and do such bad things, you will not die a good death!"
The street door banged, the crying gradually faded away, and the courtyard became quiet.
"Actually, whether you die a good death or not has nothing to do with what you have done."
Cheng Jiaoniang said, sitting upright and putting down the tea bowl in her hand.
Banqin in the corridor chuckled.
"Madam, have you listened carefully and thought about it seriously?" she said, with a bit of anger.
"Listen, it's quite lively and the voice is nice, better than Mrs. Cheng." Cheng Jiaoniang said, standing up, "Is there anyone else coming today?"
Banqin laughed again when he heard this, with a bit of helplessness.
Because of the schedule, the old man fainted in front of the door and was carried back. Although his life was saved, the doctor was not allowed to get out of bed. If it happened again, even Daluo Immortal would not be able to save him, and the Cheng family was in chaos.
The eldest lady brought people to fight her, but of course she couldn't get what she wanted. But from then on, people often came to the house, either scolding or crying bitterly, and taking turns expressing affection and understanding.
I originally thought that Cheng Jiaoniang would not allow these people to come in, or follow the advice of Manager Cao and Ban Qin to move to another place to live. However, Cheng Jiaoniang, who always liked purity, did not leave this time. Instead, she allowed the Cheng family to come in.
Although he never answered their words, he seemed to listen quite seriously.
Banqin wasn't worried about what harm those people from the Cheng family would do to Cheng Jiaoniang, she just felt strange.
"Madam, why are you wasting your time?" she said.
The lady has never been that kind of person. She neither talks to others nor listens to them.
Cheng Jiaoniang was stretching out her hands to tie up her arm ropes, and paused slightly when she heard this.
"I just don't want to be too busy," she said.
She will think too much when she is free. She cannot think too much now. She has to think about things one by one. If she thinks too much, she is afraid that she will not be able to hold on.
Go out for a walk when you open your eyes. During the day, people come and go, talking, crying and cursing. You can draw your bow and shoot arrows, practice calligraphy and read books. When night comes, close your eyes and go to sleep. This is good and good.
Banqin lowered his eyes and couldn't bear to look into her eyes anymore. He went over to help her tie up her arms and take down the bow and arrow hanging on the wall.
Day after day, from sunset to sunset, the atmosphere of the New Year in the twelfth lunar month becomes more intense.
But there was no joy at all in the inner palace.
Two chamberlains hurried past in the corridor of a palace, carrying a large wooden barrel in their hands, which contained clothes that smelled like shit. The chamberlains and maids on both sides of the path couldn't help frowning, and some couldn't help but raise their hands to pinch their noses, but
As soon as he did this, someone next to him hit him hard.
"You don't want your life." The man warned in a low voice and glanced in the direction of the palace.
The man stuck out his tongue and lowered his hands.
"Brother Six, you have changed your clothes, let's have something to eat."
Beside the couch, Prince Jin'an lifted up his clothes and sat down. He reached out and took the bowls of rice on the tables beside him.
The second prince sat cross-legged on the couch, with a smile on his rosy face. The wound cloth on his head had been taken off and replaced with a hat to cover the wound. He looked the same as before, but the smile flowed away.
His saliva and dull eyes reminded the person in front of him that everything was different.
Everything is different.
He opened his hand and waved it twice, making meaningless noises from his mouth.
Prince Jin'an quickly held down his arm with one hand to prevent him from knocking over the bowl, and continued to coax him with a smile.
"Eat, eat, after dinner, my brother will take you to play." He said.
The silver spoon put the rice in the golden bowl into the second prince's mouth. Half of the rice was swallowed and half flowed out, dripping on the saliva towel. It looked a little nauseating.
A bowl of rice was half eaten and half spilled. At the end, it was knocked over by a violently waving hand, and a clanking sound resounded in the hall.
Prince Jin'an's body was inevitably spilled a lot, and the servants knelt on the ground to wipe it off.
"Your Highness, please go change your clothes..." a chamberlain said carefully.
In front of him, Prince Jin'an sat like a stone statue, looking at the second prince on the couch waving his hands, drooling and babbling, and seemed not to have heard the words of the chamberlain.
"Sixth brother, you are sick, you are sick." He said suddenly, reaching out to hold the second prince's shoulder, "Since it is a disease, I will take you to treat the disease and cure your disease." (To be continued)
