Chapter 33: Relatives

Several ladies looked at each other, they lived in Beijing all the year round, they were well-informed, this incident was particularly troublesome, these husbands have long heard of it, Jingyong Houfu first got engaged to the big girl in Yichun Houfu, and then suddenly said that he had wrong , Withdrew from the eldest girl and changed into a second girl.
Xueyue met, life-saving grace, divorce, sisters get married, so much gossip focused on a marriage, the matter of the girl Cheng family and Jing Yonghou has been mad by husbands these days. The ladies and wives were discussing in private, and now they suddenly saw a real person, but they were all surprised.
This is the eldest lady of the Cheng family? The appearance is one of the best, the etiquette is excellent, and the family background is justified, so why should the Huo family retire?
Since the ancient gentleman's promise, everyone has valued the contract, especially the marriage contract is a contract between the two families, let alone play. Retirement must be prudent and prudent, and there is really no solution.
If the girl of the Cheng family is ugly, has a disability, or is arrogant and unfilial, the Huo family can still understand the divorce. However, the eldest girl of the Cheng family needs people, talents, and family backgrounds. How many people are ideal for a daughter-in-law who has no short board? What medicine did Huoxue take in the wrong?
The wives with wives at home all cast doubtful eyes on Huoxue. A family has hundreds of women to ask for, plus women can marry high, but men can marry low, so when these husbands look at their daughter-in-law, they must lower their demands more or less, seize the big ones, and endure the small ones. If you want your daughter-in-law to look beautiful, you have to lower the standard, and sometimes you can't even have a good temperament. Married women can affect three generations. Like Cheng Yujin, who is so selective and sensible. Once settled, just go home and steal music. Huo Xue's is still not satisfied.
Anyway, these ladies could not understand. They thought that perhaps Miss Cheng's second family was particularly outstanding, and her ability was far more obvious than that of her sister, so Huo Xueshi threw a good one and changed it for a better one.
Otherwise, they really can't figure out why.
Ruan did not expect Cheng Yujin to stand up and deny it. Ruan Shi thought that Huo Changyuan was young and promising, and he had a promising future. It was a great honor to be engaged to him. Cheng Yujin's marriage was exchanged for Mo'er. Cheng Yujin must be angry and secretly caring. Whenever he had a chance, he could not let everyone misunderstand it.
Not only was Ruan's stunned, Huo Xue's was also surprised. Cheng Yujin's explanation was too fast, as if it could not be avoided, and Huoxue gave birth to an absurd feeling that his son was abandoned. Huo Xue's displeasure. She had previously suffered a loss from dealing with Cheng Yujin. Now when she sees this person again, Huo Xue's is more certain that she does not like Cheng Yujin.
Huo Xueshi said coldly: "Mr. Cheng didn't say it last time. After she retired, it doesn't matter. From now on, the bridge returns to the bridge. How come again today?"
Cheng Yujin smiled unchanged, saying: "Mrs. Huo might think too much. My grandmother rested in it before we sent the guests out for the grandmother, and now come back to life."
Huoxue's face was stiff, and Ruan saw quickly and said, "Okay, well, Mrs. Huo and I have something else to say. Adults talk, don't interrupt you as a junior."
"Yes, auntie." Cheng Yujin smiled lightly, saluted a few people, and turned around lightly. She stood by the window after going out and whispered, "Take tea for some ladies. The guests are here, but you are so negligent, what is the etiquette?"
A little lady passing by was embarrassed: "However, the slave-servant is going to wash the fruits."
Another maid said: "There is no candle in the front yard. The slave-servant is going to send a new one."
Cheng Yujin said, "You are running in the back hall, but you went to the front yard to send joss sticks. The girl in the other front yard went to the kitchen to wash the melons and fruits. But how much effort is wasted on the road? If the guests come, the fruits and melons will be freshly washed, and the tea will not be available for a long time. If you have anything to ask, you ca n’t even see the maid who runs the hall. Do your own duty, those who serve tea only care about tea, do n’t worry about candles, those who wash vegetables only wash vegetables, and do n’t entertain guests. I ran, but I could n’t do anything. Who are you busy with?

Several maidservants bowed their heads to listen, and Nono said yes. Cheng Yujin casually asked two questions about what they used to do, and assigned several tasks to others. They spread out and concentrated on doing the work in their own hands, but it was much faster than before.
Cheng Yujin stood on the copyboard corridor while training, and she did not speak very loudly, and she could not directly see it from the house. But no one was talking in the room at this time, and what Cheng Yujin had just said was heard in the ears of the ladies.
As the expressions on the faces of the ladies who came together with Huo Xueshi became more subtle, the eldest girl of the Cheng family not only looked good, but also had good manners. Just take a look at her, and she is well-organized and well-organized. She performs better than her wife in her twenties.
Isn't the ready-made example right in front? Ruan is born with three babies. In the same situation, Ruan only sits here in a wood, but a young girl Cheng Yujin can find the problem, just a few minutes after going out In other words, the maidservants were all obedient and obedient, so the line was prohibited.
The husbands glanced at Huoxue silently and raised their eyebrows without speaking. Huoxue's face is not very good. The former daughter-in-law dismantled the stage in front of her, and now shows her ability to the people. Huoxue's suspicion that Cheng Yujin was intentional.
In fact, Cheng Yujin was really intentional. Straightening the messy inner courtyard only cost her a cup of tea, but it can add to Huoxue's. Why not do this kind of cost-effective business?
She left the rest courtyard happily and went on to entertain the women in the Lingtang. Shortly after Cheng Yujin left, Cheng Yumo came.
When Ruan learned that Huoxue was coming, he quietly whispered to Cheng Yumo, and asked her to hurry and sell it in front of her future mother-in-law. Unexpectedly, Cheng Yujin all walked around in a circle, and Cheng Yumo, the party, was late. Ruan had a feeling that the emperor was not in a hurry to be an eunuch. She understood the hardship of being a daughter-in-law and planned for her daughter everywhere.
Ruan's heart couldn't say a sigh.
The husband first met Cheng Yujin, thinking that such a person would not look down on Huoxue's family. Perhaps Miss Cheng's Second Family is a fairy. Because the expectations in my heart were too high, after Cheng Yumo came, the husbands were disappointed to see the real person, but they were even lower than the normal score.
Huoxue's posture is so high, and blowing his own home so badly, in fact, this kind of vision?
Several ladies were disdainful. If they just divorced, they wouldn't say anything, but if they got a divorce and ordered a far worse one, it would be a shame. Husbands thought in their minds that they inevitably brought out some of them. Huoxue's widowed for many years, the most sensitive to other people's evaluation, she soon realized that these ladies are laughing at her. Huo Xueshi didn't want to think about himself, but thought bitterly, blaming Cheng Yumo, who couldn't get on the table, and lost her face.
Ruan's came over to talk with Huoxue, but she didn't know what happened. Huoxue's face became more and more ugly. Ruan's is unknown, so she thought about it, thinking that perhaps Huo Xue's was hurrying to hug her grandson, dissatisfied with Cheng Yumo's desire to keep filial piety for a year, so her complexion became worse.
Ruan Shi thought more and more that she guessed right. She covered her lips and coughed a few times. The other ladies met and asked, "Mrs. Cheng Er, what's wrong with you?"
Ruan said: "I'm sick, and I have to cough for some time every year. Last time, Mrs. Huo left me a medicine, which was very easy to use. But the girl below was so confused that she forgot the blind medicinal herbs. Can you bother me, Mrs. Huo? Have a look? "
Huoxue's heard it, and Ruan had something to tell her alone. Huoxue's nest was full of evil fire, and just happened to go out to breathe, so he nodded. Seeing that Ruan and Huoxue both had to leave, Cheng Yumo was so energetic that he also left.
After they left, the rest of the ladies were sitting in the pantry, and they all said gossip: "Huo Xue looked at the smart and strong, and he was very strong after he became a widow. I don't know how much effort he has put on his son these years. She cares about her son like this. Why did she pick up her daughter-in-law, but lost the watermelon and picked sesame seeds? "
The obedient husbands shook their heads, and one of them chuckled softly, covering his mouth with a veil, and deliberately lowered his voice and said: "The Huo family retires, and some are in the doorway. This second lady, I am afraid it is not as innocent as we saw harm."
"What?" The other lady didn't believe it. "I've been practicing for many years. I think I'm flamboyant, but I've looked away?"
The talking lady moved her eyebrows slightly and smiled meaningfully: "Dragon born nine sons, nine sons are different, and the twin sisters may not be exactly the same. The eldest girl opened the housekeeper's know-how, the younger sister couldn't do the same. ? "
"How to say?"
"Have you not heard of it? It is said that Jingyong Hou's family raised and withdrawn from Cheng's family, not Huo Xue's idea, but Huo Xiaohou's. According to Mrs. Zhou, Huo Xue's came to the second When the girl raised her relatives, the girl Cheng was shameless on the spot. The Huo family did not dare to show up. After a few days, they gave gifts to pay off. "
Hearing that it was Mrs. Zhou, several other ladies immediately believed it. Mrs. Zhou likes to be a matchmaker. At that time, Huo Xueshi came to the house to raise relatives, and indeed Mrs. Zhou was invited to accompany him.
Seeing that the others did n’t know, the talking lady became more excited and shared the gossip that Mrs. Zhou whispered quietly:
Listening to Mrs. Zhou said, it was indeed the eldest girl Cheng who had discovered Lord Huo Huo and asked the servant Huo Huo My grandfather was rescued. I never wanted to be in the village of the master of Qingfu County, but Huo Hou took a fancy to the younger sister who came to visit the doctor. He thought that the big girl Cheng was too dignified and boring, so he changed the big girl into a second girl at home . "
"Ah, there is such a thing!" Several other ladies were very surprised to hear this. Parents' matchmaker's words, which junior can change it if they like it? They are all people with sons and husbands, and they know what virtue men are. However, even if they step back 10,000 steps, Huo Changyuan dislikes his sister like a bodhisattva, and is not enough to live and fragrant, then she can't retire her sister. Order another sister! What does this look like.
The lady who shared the rumored news shook her head and sighed, "Isn't it? No wonder that Ms. Cheng met Huoxue's coldness today, but the elder Huoxue's face did not dare to say a word. Dare, they I am ashamed of Ms. Cheng! It ’s just the pity of Ms. Cheng, a good girl, but she was involved in Huo ’s affairs. She was pried away by her sister. The fiance did n’t talk about it. She was divorced herself. What a wonderful girl, good looks, good female red, good temperament, although too dignified, but this is the housekeeper! Marrying a wife is not a concubine, want those who are tempting to coax people to do What? Alas, what a pity. "
The other ladies felt the same. The lady looked at the woman and the young Langjun from different angles. The Langjun likes to be lively, delicate, crying and coquettish, but the mother-in-law likes to be dignified and able to teach the husband-in-law. Cheng Yujin is perfect.
Several ladies exchanged whispers in a low voice. Cheng Yujin's appearance and temperament fit the eyes of the husband, and he has become a complete victim in the female family at this moment. Huo Changyuan has done all the things that the husbands are afraid of their sons, and naturally became the object of all the crusades.
Behind every heart-changing man is a shameless coquette. Husbands can't say that Miss Cheng's second is not, they just say Huo Changyuan.
"Jing Yonghou looked at Gao Yingying and had ideas and strategies, how can he do this kind of thing?"
"Who knows, knowing people and knowing each other. Alas, men care for themselves, but they suffer from the women who are implicated in him. What a good girl Dacheng Cheng has to do in the future."
The news from the husband's mouth is getting farther and farther from the truth. Every time they pass a hand, they cheer and add vinegar. The scum people are getting scum, and the poor people are getting more and more pitiful. Up to now, Cheng Yujin has become a virtuous but incomprehensible poor woman, very substituting, the husbands spread the gossip, and looked at Cheng Yujin with full of love.
If these words were heard by Huo Changyuan, I am afraid he would vomit blood. Cheng Yujin is still innocent and pitiful? When she waved her, she hit her face directly, and she couldn't see any innocence or pity.
The husband and wife were all gangsters in the house, and they were guarded by the maid when they spoke. Ruan did not know what others said after they left. Ruan and Huoxue proposed the idea of ​​being married to Huo Xue. Huoxue only thought for a while and agreed.
Anyway, they are the mother-in-law, Cheng Yumo is anxious to marry in, and of course Huo Xue's will have no objections.
Ruan and Huoxue discussed the matter properly and went back to find Mrs. Cheng. Old Master Hou died of illness, and Cheng Min, the married woman, hurried back to her family early in the morning to help. When Ruan and Huoxue entered, Cheng Min was sitting in the room comforting Mrs. Cheng. She is a grandmother, naturally there is no reason to avoid, Cheng Min also heard Ruan's proposal.
This is a matter for her family, Cheng Min is not good to intervene. But in her heart, she sighed and shook her head.
Women are most taboo to catch up, and Cheng Yumo is not able to marry, so what is the hurry? Originally, when a woman married to her mother-in-law, she had to have children and take care of housework.
But Ruan's mother is willing, and Mrs. Cheng also agrees, what does Cheng Min jump out as an aunt? Cheng Min pursed her lips gently and said nothing.
She didn't know how, and remembered an idea she had shelved. In fact, she thought for a long time after going back. Later, she heard that Cheng Yujin had embroidered a pair of double-sided embroidery for Hou Fu, and even got the emperor's personal appreciation. Cheng Min then rested this thought. What is the level of her son, Cheng Min himself knows that Cheng Yujin is too big, not their family can afford.
But today, the idea is back. Any big family will marry women and wives in the order of age. Men may be able to change, but women can't cross the age and respect. If the sister is married, but the sister is still at home, how do others think about Cheng Yujin? Those who know understand that it is the Huo family too pit, Cheng Yujin to keep filial piety, it is Ruan and Huo Xue who are too anxious, but how many people in the capital know the family's inner feelings?
They will not understand Cheng Yujin's difficulties, they will only feel that Cheng Yujin has some hidden diseases, so they can't marry.
Cheng Min sighed. She saw what Ruan and Mrs. Cheng had said, and she no longer stayed with the suspected aunt, and took the initiative to leave. As soon as he went outside, Cheng Min immediately asked, "How about the second young master?"
"The second lord helped entertain guests in the outer court."
Cheng's family is not prosperous, but the third generation is more prosperous. The two sons of Erfang, Cheng Enci and Cheng Enbei are half-aged teenagers. Cheng Chengbao, a serious long-father, is still a child. Entertaining a young male guest is impossible for Cheng Yuanxian to come forward, so Xu Zhixian hurried back to his grandfather ’s Help entertain guests.
Cheng Min immediately set off to find Xu Zhixian. Xu Zhixian was busy outside, and couldn't help listening to her mother said that his mother was looking for him. Xu Zhixian rushed to the house, and as soon as he pushed the door, he asked, "Mother, what are you looking for me for?"
Cheng Min was taken aback by him, and gave Xu Zhixian a strange look: "You kid, why didn't you go up and down."
"Mother, what the do you tell me to do? I'm still busy outside. You have something to say."
Xu Zhi's envy is simple. Cheng Min knows that his son is a man, so he doesn't care about his little offense. Cheng Min took Xu Zhixian to sit down, looking at his son from top to bottom. Xu Zhixian was so hairy by this look, he couldn't help rubbing his arms and asked, "Mother, what are you going to say?"
Cheng Min smiled and asked, "Envy, you tell the truth to your mother, what do you think of your cousin Yujin?"
"Sister Jin? Of course she is all right."
This is the truth. Xu Zhixian grew up in the shadow of Cheng Yujin from an early age, accustomed to Cheng Yujin's rules are better than him, his homework is better than him, and his vocabulary is better than his diligence ... she even knows the content of the men's imperial examinations. What. Any project that Cheng Yujin participates in, don't think about it, Cheng Yujin must be the first. Over time, Xu Zhixian was used to it.
Because that is Cheng Yujin.
Xu Zhixian thought that his mother would also use Cheng Yujin to educate herself. Unexpectedly, Cheng Min's next sentence was: "So what do you think, let Yujin be your wife?"
