After a while, Cheng Yuanjing came out. Everyone saw that Cheng Yujin was gone and asked, "What about Miss Cheng?"
"She reads and writes inside." Cheng Yuanjing said lightly, "She is still young, and she can't leave her homework."
This sentence sounds weird, Lin Qingyuan laughed: "Jingxing you have a big turnaround now. At the end of the palace test, how many people secretly asked if you were married, you said it was troublesome, and they all refused. Why now be patient It ’s so good, do you feel good about pointing your niece ’s homework? "
The ideals of many literati are Jinshijidi, Xiuqiu, to become a patriarch, and to have grandchildren and peach gardens. But teaching the homework of the younger generation is at least an old-age hobby. Cheng Yuanjing is only nineteen, so it ’s too early to worry about reading and writing for the next generation.
Cheng Yuanjing paused infrequently, and then covered it lightly: "She has a temperament, and no one will look at her if I don't look at her."
Lin Qingyuan and others thought that this was saying that only Cheng Yuanjing could control Missy. If he didn't care, no one else could. But Huo Changyuan heard it, and Cheng Yuanjing said that he didn't care about Cheng Yujin, no one cared about her.
Huo Changyuan suddenly had strange emotions. When he and Cheng Yujin got engaged, he heard a lot about Cheng Yujin's situation. He knew that she had been adopted as soon as she was born. Although there was a noble sister-in-law, Qingfu didn't care about her at all. Others only loved what she had born in her stomach. Ruan's has a real feeling for Cheng Yujin, but Ruan's affection for Cheng Yumo is deeper.
As for Mrs. Cheng, it is a matter of fact that it still has power. No matter what it is, it is very snobbish. The granddaughter will give it to anyone who is useful, and whoever brings the most benefit to the Hou Mansion will be biased. In this environment, Cheng Yujin actually had a very difficult time.
But she still grew up smoothly, and grown up to be a boudoir for everyone, showing her tenacity. Cheng Yujin ’s mother-in-law and Huo Changyuan said these things. They wanted to let the aunt-in-law know that her girl ’s life was not easy. However, Huo Changyuan withdrew in just two months, and he became one of those who hurt Cheng Yujin.
Huo Changyuan originally resented Cheng Yujin for fooling him, but at this moment he looked at another man to defend Cheng Yujin, and for Cheng Yujin's intention, he felt some dull pain in his heart. As if once there was a treasure in his palm, he did not cherish it, and now it belongs to others.
Xu Zhixian sat for a while. He came to the inner door to find his grandmother and cousins. He didn't talk to Cheng Yujin before he left last time. Xu Zhixian felt uncomfortable after returning home. It ’s good to say. Now that Cheng Yuanjing and Lin Qingyuan were talking, he didn't understand much, and he was not interested. Xu Zhixian thought to go inside and talk to Sister Jin.
Xu Zhixian stood up and took two steps. Cheng Yuanjing, who was talking to Lin Qingyuan, pressed his gaze accurately: "What are you doing?"
Xu Zhixian was taken aback, subconsciously straightened up, and respectfully replied: "Go to Sister Jin."
The rules of posture were never seen when he was training.
Cheng Yuanjing's expression remained unchanged, saying: "She has something to do and is inconvenient to disturb."
Xu Zhixian shook hands tangledly. He was different from the people here. He had been in the house all the year round, knowing that women had too much time, and they didn't need to test their merits. Anything that really didn't disturb anything mattered. Unwilling to give up, Xu Zhixian struggled and said: "But she is alone, and no one speaks, I am afraid it will be stuffy."
"She's not bored." Cheng Yuanjing glanced at Xu Zhixian, as if casually, "Ms. Hou sent someone to ask you when the banquet was set up in the front yard and asked you to go to Shou An Tang after the banquet. It's not too early to let the elders It's not good to wait a long time. "
Xu Zhixian believed that it was true and hurried to Shou An Tang. Xu Zhixian's figure could not be seen anytime soon. Cheng Yuanjing withdrew his gaze lightly, and in a blink of an eye, he just collided with Huo Changyuan.
Huo Changyuan was looking at him thoughtfully, Cheng Yuanjing did not shy away, and his eyes were silent with coercion. Huo Changyuan quickly couldn't support it and turned away.
After halfway through, Huo Changyuan never saw Cheng Yujin again. It was strange to know that she was across the room with Cheng Yuanjing in the middle. Lin Qingyuan and the two said goodbye one after another. Huo Changyuan couldn't sit down anymore, so he also got up. Huo Changyuan would have been secretly concerned, such a big thing as sending guests off, with Cheng Yujin's Zhou etiquette and unwillingness to disregard people, he will never miss it. However, he was wrong, Cheng Yuanjing sent them to the door, and the door and window of the study were still tightly closed.
Cheng Yuanjing noticed Huo Changyuan's movements, his eyes were heavy, watching him not speaking. After everyone left, Cheng Yuanjing stood outside before slowly walking back to the house.
In the study, Cheng Yujin was indeed busy. She practiced for a long time in accordance with Cheng Yuanjing's words. Suddenly she felt that she had to quickly return Du Ruo to the courtyard to pick up her embroidery basket. Now, she was sitting on the bench, piled with a pile of needlework fabrics, and walked intently.
When Cheng Yuanjing came in, Cheng Yujin was already closing the line. Cheng Yuanjing watched those fair-white hands flying up and down, his fingers were incredibly flexible, as if with a strange rhythm. Cheng Yujin noticed that Cheng Yuanjing was not far away and asked, "All the guests are gone?"
"Well." Cheng Yuanjing stunned himself when he spoke. What did he do to answer this question? He was originally his guest. What happened to Cheng Yujin's self-professional kiss?
Cheng Yujin didn't notice that their current conversation was like an old husband and wife. She sewed the last few stitches, hid the thread, and then put down the embroidery frame with great relief, saying, "I was embroidering the important part just now, and I couldn't go out to give away guests. Brother Lin should not blame me for being rude? "
Did you call Brother Lin? Cheng Yuanjing didn't answer, he picked up the fabric that Cheng Yujin had just embroidered, looked back and forth for a while, and then naturally changed the subject: "These words are the worst for you, embroidered like a decent. The rest Should n’t there be more? "
"Yes." Cheng Yujin nodded along with his words. "The hardest part has already been embroidered. The rest is water milling time, just wait a few more days."
Cheng Yuanjing held the handwriting on the embroidered pattern. He didn't care much about the foreign objects, but the beautiful things were naturally liked. Cheng Yujin was very satisfied with this screen.
"Your progress is much faster than planned, and time is not too late."
"I understand." Cheng Yujin rubbed his wrist and raised his head to smile at Cheng Yuanjing Mingyan, "Xie Jiushu cares."
care? Who cares about her. Cheng Yuanjing put down the embroidery and sat coldly on the other side.
Although Cheng Yujin said she was not in a hurry, she was very caring about the embroidering screen, and later changed, and it was better to finish the embroidery as soon as possible. She hurried for a few days and finally completed the last word.
Cheng Yujin hasn't been so happy in a long time. As soon as she lowered the needle thread, she didn't have time to loosen her stiff neck and quickly called Du Ruo: "Du Ruo, is Jiu Shu there?"
Du Ruo hurried in from the outside and said, "It rained today and I have never heard Jiuye go out."
Cheng Yujin found out that it was raining outside. Spring rain is rare. Cheng Yujin stood up and loosened his bones and said, "Remove the screen from the embroidery frame. I will show it to Jiu Shu."
"Girl, the screen has not been washed yet."
Because embroidery is often held in people's hands, it is inevitable that it will be rubbed black and stolen. However, Cheng Yujin couldn't wait so long and said, "It's okay, Uncle Jiu doesn't know how many times he has seen it, and he still cares about the black? Just take it down and we will take it away."
Cheng Yujin rushed to Chen Mingyuan, but upon entering the door, he noticed that a pair of rain gear was placed under the eaves. Cheng Yujin paused for a while, and the next man reported: "Big girl, Lin Bianxiu is inside."
Lin Qingyuan? Cheng Yujin didn't realize that she was the first to appear unhappy, as if she was disturbed by someone's plan. But soon, her reason came online and immediately analyzed that this was a good time.
The people inside had heard the movement, and a voice from Qing Yue sounded: "Cheng Yujin? Come in."
Cheng Yujin took off her rain gear under the maid's service, put on soft-soled shoes, and stepped into the middle. Cheng Yuanjing and Lin Qingyuan sat opposite each other to make tea. The place where they were was a pavilion, separated by a pure wood zigzag moon door, and the interior became its own space. Through the wooden partition door, you can see the one-foot platform with a cushion on it, a tea table in the middle, and two tall row windows on the side, which can be completely removed. At the moment, the tea is cooked in the rain, and the aroma of the tea surrounds the wooden pavilion, which is endlessly elegant.
Cheng Yuanjing looked back at her and waved at her. Cheng Yujin walked over naturally, gathered up his skirt, and sat on his knees beside Cheng Yuanjing.
"Nine Uncle."
"what happened?"
Cheng Yujin ran over on a rainy day and would never be on impulse.
Cheng Yuanjing didn't expect anything wrong. Cheng Yujin really smiled and said, "Nine Uncle, I have embroidered."
"Oh? So fast?" Cheng Yuanjing glanced at Du Ruo holding the Jin box beside him, with a clear smile in his eyes, "Bring it over?"
Cheng Yujin nodded. She looked at Lin Qingyuan with some hesitation. The Autumn Festival was approaching, and all the governments were preparing their gifts with enthusiasm, hiding them from seeing their gift lists. Cheng Yujin is confident that this screen is enough to be used as the bottom card of Yichun Hou Mansion, which is now seen by Lin Qingyuan ...
Cheng Yuanjing guessed Cheng Yujin's thoughts at a glance. He said: "Why, Lin Qingyuan can believe it."
Lin Qingyuan still remembers the eldest lady of the Cheng family. Hearing this, he smiled and said, "What did the eldest lady prepare, can't you let me see?"
"Where is Lin Bianxiu." Cheng Yujin sat down to give Lin Qingyuan a condemnation, and then said to Du Ruo, "Take it out for Jiu Shu and Lin Bianxiu."
Du Ruo joined hands with another maid and slowly opened the screen. Lin Qingyuan was surprised when he saw that he couldn't help but go down to the ground to look closely at the needlework trend above: "Double-sided embroidery ... It's still a strange double-sided embroidery. I thought these skills had been lost."
Lin Qingyuan looked at Cheng Yujin incredulously: "This ... this turned out to be ..."
Cheng Yujin nodded with a smile: "It was embroidered by the little girl, and it was rough, and I asked Lin Bianxiu not to joke."
vulgar? Cheng Yuanjing glanced at Cheng Yujin with a smile, thinking about her carefully. Cheng Yujin also glared and signaled him not to demolish the stage.
Lin Qingyuan, who was standing on the ground, did not notice the eyebrow lawsuits of the two uncles and nephews. He even praised him more than once: "This is actually true! One side of the word, one side of the mountains and rivers, and the other day! No wonder the last lady came to Jingxing to learn to write. "
Lin Qingyuan was so excited that he was almost speechless. In the end, he only had to bow to the two of them in his seat: "Good characters, good writing, good embroidery!"
Cheng Yujin couldn't help laughing, a bright light flashed in his eyes. When she rarely had such a little daughter, Cheng Yuanjing also had a faint smile in her eyes.
After months of hard work, Cheng Yujin asked Du Ruo to close the screen carefully. Cheng Yuanjing saw it and said, "Just stay with me. Tomorrow I will let people find good wood to frame."
"Okay." Cheng Yujin couldn't help reminding, "I've been holding it every few months. The fabric has been rubbed, don't forget to wash it, Uncle Nine."
I have to wash it again. Cheng Yuanjing reluctantly said: "I know."
Lin Qingyuan looked at this scene with a sudden interest, he said: "Jing Xing is not a patient temper, he is impatient even listening to people saying something longer. At first, he didn't know how many people said to him, they were all one by one Rejected, I thought he was really impatient with women. Now it seems, not all. "
Cheng Yuanjing is not yet married. It is indeed a strange thing. Cheng Yujin turned his eyes and suddenly asked, "What about Lin Xiuxiu, can he have a family?"
Lin Qingyuan shook his head and said: "No, I am alone, and I am happy."
When Cheng Yuanjing wanted to stop it, it was too late. Cheng Yujin took the opportunity to ask: "Lin Bianxiu is a high school champion, young and promising, why not get married?"
"My family's ancestor lives in Jinan, and my parents are far away from home. I am the only one in the capital. No elders say pro, this thing naturally falls."
Cheng Yujin said with a smile: "Editor turned out to live alone in the capital, but fortunately there are caring people around him, otherwise it would be too quiet."
Lin Qingyuan shook his head more firmly this time: "No, there is ancestral training at home, men can't be married if they are less than 20, and they can only accept concubines for forty children. There are no concubines around me. What kind of intimate people are all dependent on the book boy. . "
Cheng Yuanjing clearly saw Cheng Yujin's eyes lit up, and his expression suddenly changed. Cheng Yuanjing suddenly felt a sense of crisis in his heart. He knew that this time, Cheng Yujin was really moved.
