"I don't want to send him into the palace and be locked up as a monster." King Jin'an continued, "I don't feel safe if he stays outside the palace. He doesn't know how to eat and drink, doesn't understand hot and cold, pain, and doesn't hold grudges and doesn't know kindness.
, I’m not a normal person after all, and I don’t have anyone I can trust or trust. After thinking about it, I only have you as my friend, so I just want to entrust it to you.”
Looking after a prince? Who dares to take care of this!
Fan Jianglin looked at Prince Jin'an who was saluting again with a complicated expression.
Also, what does it mean when he asks his sister to take care of Prince Qing? If he asks his sister to take care of him, what about him?
Or does this mean seeking medical treatment?
"Okay." Cheng Jiaoniang nodded and said.
Agree?
So simple and enjoyable?
Fan Jianglin couldn't help but look at Cheng Jiaoniang again.
Prince Jin'an stood up with a smile, and instead of expressing gratitude or asking questions, he pushed over a pair of cards.
"This, you can enter and exit Prince Ping's Mansion freely." He said.
Cheng Jiaoniang nodded.
"Then I'll take my leave." Prince Jin'an said with a smile.
Everyone in the room got up to see him off and watched Prince Jin'an riding away.
It was really a pleasure to have this question answered and acknowledged...
"Sister." Fan Jianglin hesitated and said, "Is something going to happen again?"
"In the world, in the world, it's all about things." Cheng Jiaoniang said with a smile, "Don't worry, it's not a big deal."
Hearing what she said, Fan Jianglin felt relieved.
"Sister, let's go after dinner." Huang said.
"Sister-in-law, don't be busy, I'll go over there to eat." Cheng Jiaoniang said, Banqin had already brought a cloak and put it on her.
Fan Jianglin and Mr. Huang took the child out of the house and watched her drive away in the car.
"Da Lang, your highness..." Huang hesitated and couldn't help but whispered, "He seems to be very... very good to my sister."
"Is my sister treating him badly?" Fan Jianglin asked, "As long as there are people who are somewhat humane and know some etiquette, my sister is very kind to them, not to mention those who have helped a little bit, my sister will reward them with hundreds of thousands."
…….”
Huang was stunned for a moment and then laughed again and raised his hand to hit him.
"That's not what I'm talking about!" she laughed.
Fan Jianglin stared at her.
"Then what did you say?" he asked.
Huang stared at him and finally cheered.
"I didn't say anything!" she said, carrying the child into the house.
"You didn't say anything, but you said it." Fan Jianglin said blankly, and couldn't help but mutter, "They are all women, look at how simple and clear my sister's words are."
In the courtyard of the Cheng family's new house, I don't know if it's because of the new house that the New Year atmosphere is much less intense.
"Madam, madam, I'm here to pay for the food and meat." A servant woman hurriedly walked into the hall.
There were already three or four servant girls sitting in the hall, and they all looked at her when they heard this.
"Madam, we can't wait any longer to pay for the fragrant wax... Now that we have invited God, we can't stop fragrant wax." A helper said.
"Madam, do you want the ordered jewelry? The shop will come to urge you. If you don't want it, you will give it to someone else." Another person also said hurriedly.
"Okay!"
Mrs. Cheng Er shouted and put the tea bowl in her hand on the table.
The room became quiet.
"Mother, mother."
Cheng Qiniang's voice came from outside.
"Why didn't my new jewelry come with my new clothes?"
Mrs. Cheng Er could not help but reach out and touch her forehead.
"Father said he had chosen something for me." Cheng Qiniang said.
"Yes, I understand. It will be delivered in a moment." Mrs. Cheng Er said, waving her hand, "Go down quickly, mother is busy."
Cheng Qiniang reluctantly said "Oh" and was about to leave when she saw a little girl running in happily.
"Madam, the eldest lady is back!" she shouted.
After hearing this, everyone in the room was very happy.
"Quick, quick." Mrs. Cheng Er said, lifting her feet and walking out.
The servants and women gathered around and hurried out.
Cheng Qiniang stood in the hall, angry and anxious.
"What are they doing?" she shouted. "What are they doing?"
"They are going to pick up the lady." The little girl on the side replied seriously and blankly.
Cheng Qiniang stared at her.
"Pick her up? Why pick her up?" she shouted, "Does she think she is the father? Come in and out once, and the whole family greets her?"
"What's wrong? What does Qiniang want to do with her father?"
Master Cheng Er's voice came from outside the door.
Mr. Cheng Er, who had already taken annual leave, staggered in wearing a homely Taoist robe and saw his daughter's face was kind and doting.
"My father will take you and your brother shopping tomorrow..." he continued.
"Father!" Cheng Qiniang interrupted him, stepped forward and shouted, "When she comes in and out, her mother takes someone to greet her."
"She?" Mr. Cheng Er was stunned for a moment.
"It's sister." Cheng Qiniang said reluctantly.
Mr. Cheng Er's face darkened.
"No rules!" he hummed, rolling his sleeves. "If you don't follow the rules outside, you will get into trouble. If you don't follow the rules at home, you don't know the etiquette! How unbecoming!"
At this time, Mrs. Cheng Er had already greeted Cheng Jiaoniang with a smile and walked towards her yard.
"Is it cold?"
"What do you want to eat tonight?"
On the one hand, he asked for help.
Cheng Jiaoniang answered them one by one.
Step into the hall and push away the servants.
"Jiaojiao, you see it's the Chinese New Year." Mrs. Cheng Er said with a smile, "We need to buy a lot of things at home..."
"Thank you for taking the trouble." Cheng Jiaoniang said.
This sentence made Mrs. Cheng Er smile happily.
"One family, what two families talk about." She smiled.
Cheng Jiaoniang stopped talking and took the hot tea brought by Banqin.
Mrs. Cheng Er took out the list again and told her in detail what she had purchased one by one. She also asked if she was satisfied with the new clothes and jewelry that were delivered.
After talking for a while, although I didn't see that the woman was impatient, she was already impatient herself.
"Jiaojiao." Mrs. Cheng Er paused and then said, "You see it costs a lot..."
Banqin raised an eyebrow and looked at her.
"You also know that our Cheng family is not divided into separate families. The family wealth is all in one's hands. I gave some money when I went out, but I used it all along the way. When I came here, I gave away so much..."
"Although our family can't live a luxurious life this year, we can't live too shabby either..."
Mrs. Cheng Er made insinuations and complained about injustice.
"What do you want?" Cheng Jiaoniang interrupted her and asked.
"Money." Mrs. Cheng Er blurted out.
Cheng Jiaoniang nodded.
"If you need money at home, just go and talk to Banqin." She said, "The money is all with her."
Banqin?
Mrs. Cheng Er raised her head and looked at the girl in front of her.
"It's not me." Banqin shook his head and said.
When night fell, a carriage went straight through the door and headed inward.
"Who is he?" The servants who followed the Cheng family couldn't help but ask, "Why didn't they even ask?"
While looking at the two attendants standing and talking by the door.
They came here with Mrs. Cheng. They were not too unfamiliar. They had met her in Jiangzhou. They were said to be Mr. Zhou's people.
Although they are concierges in name, they are just showing off or doing some cleaning. The door is controlled by these people.
"It's that Banqin girl." Another servant whispered.
"That Banqin." The person before suddenly realized, "That servant girl who goes out early and comes home late, wears gold and silver and is never a servant."
"Miss Banqin, Miss Banqin."
Two maids stood in front of the door and shouted loudly and quietly.
The door was suddenly opened, and the maid, who had already changed her clothes and had her hair half disheveled, raised her eyebrows.
"What?" she shouted.
The two maids took a step back in fear.
"Madam, madam, please come over here." One stammered.
Just when the maid thought that the girl would slam the door, the girl just took a deep breath and looked neither happy nor angry.
"Yes, let me change my clothes and comb my hair." She said.
Hearing the arrival of the maid, Mrs. Cheng Er, who was waiting impatiently in the room, hurriedly took a few steps forward. Master Cheng Er coughed heavily.
It's not enough to welcome that woman, why should you also personally welcome a girl and slave girl?
Do you still want face?
Seeing Mr. Cheng's raised eyebrows and angry expressions, Mrs. Cheng's wife smiled at him to appease him and hurriedly walked out of the inner room to the hall.
"Meet Madam."
He was smart enough not to be indifferent, otherwise he would have been beaten to death on the spot!
Mr. Cheng Er snorted coldly and continued to read the book in his hand. Although his eyes fell on the book, he listened intently to what was said outside.
"...The family is going to be busy in the new year, with expenses and so on..."
"...I was about to tell Madam that there was a shortage of manpower, so I picked some girls, servants, and boys to serve as my servants today, and I will bring them tomorrow..."
"That's great...but it doesn't need to be that much. There are still people at home coming with us, so just leave a few to clean up and do rough things. What matters now is the purchases..."
"...Yes, madam, just make arrangements. If anyone comes to settle the matter, just ask them to come to me as well."
Master Cheng Er frowned slightly.
This girl speaks politely and has a pleasant voice that doesn't make people feel disgusted, but why does she still feel uncomfortable somewhere?
"...Banqin, do you think there is anything else you want to add?"
"...Young lady, you don't have to look, Madam can make the decision."
Mrs. Cheng's laughter came from the other side, and there was a sound of footsteps. The people on the other side left, and Mrs. Cheng stepped in with the smile on her face.
"...Sir, I don't know how many visits there will be this year. How about preparing a hundred items first?" She knelt down and asked.
Hundreds of pieces?
In the past, I couldn't give so many gifts to my relatives and friends at home.
"Oh, it's good to have more." Mrs. Cheng Er said with a smile, "If you can't use it up, keep it. She doesn't care about the money."
Since she doesn't care about the little money, she should spend it wisely.
Mr. Cheng Er clapped his hands, that's the problem!
"What's the problem?" Mrs. Cheng Er was still immersed in joy. She took out her account book. She had no problem with eating, drinking, new clothes and headwear. The question was, what should she buy in the only two days?
Of course, gold and silver are more important, so Qiniang’s future dowry...
Bah, Qiniang’s dowry is not urgent. When her sister gets married, will she still be miserable?
Prepare your daily necessities first. There will definitely be a lot of entertainment during the Chinese New Year. We can’t be embarrassed in the capital...
There was a snap, and Mrs. Cheng's reverie was interrupted, and she looked at Mr. Cheng with some surprise.
"You're really worthless. Are you still so happy to be dismissed like this?" He shouted with raised eyebrows.
Mrs. Cheng Er was a little puzzled.
"Happy." She nodded and said, "It's better than being robbed of money like the elder brother and sister-in-law, right?"
Saying this, he beamed again.
"And you see how generous Jiao Jiao'er is. It shows that father and daughter are still close..."
Thinking about the behavior of Manager Cao in Jiangzhou, it can be seen that he was implicated by the boss.
"Why are you so close?" Mr. Cheng Er shouted angrily, "Is there anyone like her who is a child? Look at what you have become! Who is the master and who is the girl in front of that girl? Just give her some money and you will be so happy.
?”
"Yes, she treats me well and obeys my advice, so I am naturally happy." Mrs. Cheng Er smiled and said, "Master, you are her biological father, and I am just a stepmother. Do you expect her to respect me?"
Respect me? I am very contented."
But she didn’t respect me either!
Mr. Cheng's remark made him very angry.
"What a shame! Who is respected and who is humble in this family?" he shouted.
"You are an honorable person, so of course you are an honorable person." Mrs. Cheng Er smiled and comforted her a few times, then hurriedly went to settle the accounts, "We can't just make do with it this year. It concerns our face in the capital. This is not the case in the capital."
Jiangzhou."
face?
What else is there to face?
Being dragged through the streets and sent to the censor's desk, my face has long been lost!
Mr. Cheng Er threw down the scroll in his hand and got up to go to sleep.
