"Mr. Cheng Lang, this old slave has come to see you at the old lady's order!"

When Nanny Lai entered Xuewu Lane, she lost the gloom in the mansion, and greeted her loudly as soon as she entered the door.

Cheng Lang was punching in the courtyard when he heard the sound and stopped to look towards the door.

Xuewu Lane is in Dongcheng, just a courtyard with front and back, three houses side by side, an elm tree and a well in the courtyard.No one would have imagined that such an ordinary small courtyard is still the property of the Chenghou Mansion.

So Cheng Lang turned his head and saw Nanny Lai and others coming around from behind the shadow wall.

In the past, Nanny Lai also came here twice, and each time she brought a little girl and a servant, dressed in gold and silver, which was quite imposing.No one would have guessed that she was just a nanny in the Hou's mansion, and thought she was the ancestor of some family.

This time, in addition to the little girl, he also brought three servants and a team of guards. Cheng Lang unconsciously retracted his legs and stood still, seemingly relaxed.

Seeing Cheng Lang's gaze on the guard, Nanny Lai quickly waved her hands, "Master Tang, don't misunderstand, there have been thieves in the capital recently, and this old slave came out to run a business for the Marquis's Mansion, so he couldn't make mistakes, so he brought more people. It's not Master Tang, don't get me wrong."

Cheng Lang looked at Nanny Lai, and didn't worry about the guards anymore, but asked about the real thing, "I've been repairing this yard for several days, when will I be brought into the mansion? Could it be that the door of Chenghou's mansion is The number one is so high, my relatives from the same clan can't come to the door?"

Nanny Lai hurriedly waved her hand, "Master Tang is serious, the gate of the Hou Mansion is right there, and you can come to the door at any time. A few days ago, it wasn't about the reputation of the eldest lady, which made you feel wronged in this small courtyard for a few days. After all You set off from Chengjia Village together with Missy, and you have gone through twists and turns to reach the capital, but Missy didn't arrive, it is inevitable that people will have associations with Missy's journey, and it will affect Missy's reputation."

Nanny Lai still explained in this way to appease Cheng Lang.

When Cheng Lang heard this, he didn't say anything more, he just continued, "Mama is here today, is it because Yuguan has returned to the mansion smoothly?"

Nanny Lai was also relieved to see that Cheng Lang was no longer entangled in the matter of entering the mansion.After all, the people in Chengjia Village are so foolish. They just made up an excuse for Cheng Yu, the young lady, so he won't bother to pursue it.

"The words of Master Tang, the arrival of this old slave today has brought you good news. There is a letter from the eldest lady, saying that she will arrive in the capital in a few days. There is one more thing along with the letter, that is, the eldest The lady said that when she was leaving, a letter of succession was handed over to you. I don’t know if there is such a thing.”

Madam Lai asked tentatively.

But when Cheng Lang heard the words, without saying a word, he took out an envelope from the sleeve pocket of his outer jacket while practicing boxing, and pulled it out. It was a successor.

"Is it this one?"

Cheng Lang shook the following book and asked.

Nanny Lai narrowed her eyes, stepped forward nimbly, took out the following book from Cheng Lang's hand, glanced at it roughly, confirmed it was true, and the stone fell to the ground in her heart.

"This is the letter. The old lady suddenly heard about this, and she was so frightened that she almost fainted. I don't know how the eldest lady gave birth to the idea of ​​succession. After all, she is the eldest lady of the Hou family. , but after all, it is necessary to arrange a good future for the eldest lady. After all, she is the daughter of the Hou family, so it will not be too bad. Even if she can't be a prince and concubine, it is easy to marry into a noble family. In the future, Feng Yin will have to do it Madam, don’t you want to enjoy a lifetime of happiness?”

After getting the things, Nanny Lai was relieved, took out a handkerchief and pressed the corners of her eyes, wiping away the tears that didn't exist, as if she was worried and sad about the eldest daughter Cheng Yuguan's succession.

"Master Tang, I know that the eldest lady grew up in the ancestral land and was loved by the patriarch's family. But even if it is for the sake of the eldest lady's future, the patriarch should dissuade her. The eldest lady is young, and it is understandable that she has resentment in her heart. The patriarch does not agree You should let the young miss mess around, and even sign the succession letter?"

Nanny Lai beat it up, and even complained about the patriarch's family who had taken care of the children for the Hou Mansion for many years.

Cheng Lang cried and accused Lai Mammy, chanted and slapped, but his simple and honest face showed no ups and downs. He just looked at you quietly, as if he was watching a play.

Nanny Lai couldn't wipe away her tears, and couldn't beat the wit in her mouth anymore.

Master Tang has thick eyebrows and big eyes, straight nose bridge, slightly thick lips, dark complexion, coupled with a somewhat generous jawline, looks like a simple, honest and loyal face in a drama.

But his eyes were calm and unwavering. I don't know if it was the honesty of a farmer or something else. In short, being stared at by such eyes always made people feel uncomfortable.

It was as if when he opened his mouth, his mind was seen through by this gaze.

"This is what my little sister means, and my father will naturally do what she wants."

Cheng Lang opened his mouth, but did not explain, only said this sentence.

This sentence is as if, as long as the eldest lady Cheng Yuguan speaks, the patriarch's family will cooperate unconditionally.

Nanny Lai frowned, she didn't know that the eldest lady was in the ancestral land, she had such ability to make everyone obey her.

Think about it, the young miss looks straightforward, but after making a fuss in the mansion, she patted her ass and left, staying in the palace unscathed.Momo Lai was a little uncertain about the depth of the young lady.

I thought that those from the ancestral land who gave up the title of the capital and returned to their hometowns should all be upright and old-fashioned.Now it seems that it is not the same as imagined.

Nanny Lai feels that the people in the ancestral land seem to be incompatible with the Hou family.The eldest lady is a bit evil, and the same is true of the honest and straightforward young master Tang, who feels uncomfortable when approached.

Seeing that she couldn't find anything from Young Master Tang, Nanny Lai didn't want to stay too long, put away the documents and returned home.

"Nurse brought so many people to come up with the succession document, but it turned out to be useless. Master Tang looked simple and honest, and he was also winking. Knowing that he can't resist the Hou's house, he might as well take it out."

In the carriage, the maid squeezed Nanny Lai's shoulders while complaining.This young master looked at his thick eyebrows and big eyes, but he didn't expect his bones to be very soft.This inheritance document is so important to the eldest lady, that it was given to the mansion so easily.

Now, there is no succession document, let's see how the eldest lady will make arrangements for her succession.Even with the Queen as a backer, she can't sever ties with the Hou Mansion out of thin air.

For a moment, the little girl didn't know whether to gloat over the eldest lady's misfortune, or to be angry with the young master, and just hand over such an important thing to others.

Hearing what the little girl said, Mammy Lai eased the uneasiness at Master Tang's place just now, and patted the little girl's hand affectionately, "You are the only one who is smart. That's right, Miss Ren and Master Tang have any plans. After obtaining the inheritance document, there is no way to find out. It must not be possible, the patriarch of the ancestral land came to the capital in person to facilitate the succession."

Hearing Mammy Lai's words, the little girl was a little hesitant, "Your maidservant looked at Missy's temperament, she should have been pampered and grew up, so she didn't know the heights of heaven and earth. Since the patriarch of the ancestral land loves Missy so much, if she really comes Capital, what should I do to support the eldest lady? At that time, the eldest lady will have the queen in charge, and the patriarch will come forward, and the succession will probably be inseparable."

Listening to this little girl's speech, she was clearly organized and thoughtful, obviously she was not an ordinary maid.

Satisfied, Nanny Lai took the little girl's hand and brushed away the two strands of hair from her forehead. Looking closely at the girl, she turned out to be a girl with fair skin and delicate eyebrows.

The more Nanny Lai watched, the more satisfied she became, and she spoke with a hint of teaching, "You are right to worry, but you have overlooked one point. That is the people of the ancestral land. After retreating bravely and returning to Cangzhou Mansion, they have never returned. Passing over the capital. The young lady is favored again, a girl, how can the patriarch make an exception for her? This Cangzhou mansion is not close to the capital. It’s a long way away, just to satisfy the young lady’s momentary resentment and nonsense?"

Lai Momo said, shook her head, looked at the little girl and said seriously, "You girls, especially the beautiful girls who have been spoiled and grown up, are always easy to think highly of yourself, and take little things more than the sky. Great. When you reach your age, you will understand that things in this world are nothing more than that, and you don’t need to be serious. Just like Mrs. Huo back then, what a proud girl she was, but she was too serious and ended up dying early. Look at Mrs. Yang, who was also betrayed by Master Hou, so she can accommodate Aunt Tong in the mansion, and now she is respected as Mrs. Hou, with both children?"

As she said that, Nanny Lai grabbed the hand of the girl in front of her, stared at her closely and said, "Mrs. Hou's Yang family back then was just a shabby household, not even as good as you are now. The world is still going on, and the world is changing. Who can guarantee that?" , your future prospects are not as good as Yang's? Although Hou Ye is a bit older, he is in full bloom."

Lai Momo nodded the little girl, and the little girl blushed at what Lai Momo said, and she became more and more colorful. At a teenager age, even Lai Momo looked at her, and she couldn't help but pity her, let alone Lord Hou.

"It's all the mother's pity. After the slaves, I will definitely regard you as my own mother."

The little girl promised in a low voice.

Nanny Lai smiled in satisfaction, "I will still count on you in the future, so naturally I will plan for you with my heart. You don't have to worry, just follow me. Back then, Mrs. Yang was by the old lady's side, so the Marquis fell in love with her. This man is not stealthy, but you can't let him get it easily, just follow me, and appear in front of Lord Hou from time to time. After a long time, there will always be a time when you get what you want. When you become a concubine, Even... Mammy will depend on you for the rest of her life."

The more Mammy Lai spoke, the lower her voice became, and in the end, it was almost inaudible.

The little girl was right next to Mammy Lai, and naturally she heard Mammy's "unspeakable", and her heart became more and more fiery.

She thinks that her color is more brilliant than Yang's, and she has a mother to plan, so her future is not a problem.Back then, Mrs. Yang could replace Mrs. Huo, so why couldn't she?After all, she is much younger than Yang, and can afford more.

The fourth prince once said that Chenghou's mansion has no bottom line and the rules are very chaotic. Cheng Yu entered the Hou's mansion and lived in a shallow place. Whenever he had the opportunity, he would jump out of the Hou's mansion. Naturally, there was a reason for this.

...

Grandma Lai didn't mention the errands when she went back. In Xuewu Lane, Cheng Lang sent away a group of people from the Hou Mansion, and then came to the courtyard wall, plucked onions from a dry field, and climbed over the wall to the next courtyard.

This place is obviously much more spacious than the courtyard arranged by Cheng Hou's mansion, and it is still a two-entry courtyard. As soon as Cheng Lang landed, he pretended to be someone to greet him.

"Three sons."

Cheng Lang waved his hand, where there was the simple and reticent appearance next door, it was clearly a resolute appearance of killing and cutting.

He walked quickly to the main hall to sit down, and took the letter from the servant.

Scanning ten lines at a glance, it is impressive to see Cheng Yuguan's current situation.

"Little sister has entered the palace?"

Cheng Lang spoke.

The servant replied solemnly, "Yes, I went to the palace for a banquet yesterday, so I didn't go back to Chenghou's mansion. Presumably the eldest lady felt that the empress could preside over the succession for her, so she stayed in the palace."

Cheng Lang nodded.

"Father, where have you been?"

Cheng Lang asked again.

The servant immediately handed a piece of letter paper to Cheng Lang, "The news came yesterday that the master and his party have already arrived in Xiyang, and in three to five days, they should arrive in the capital."

Cheng Lang nodded when he heard this, and raised his head to look in the direction of the palace, "I don't know how my younger sister is in the palace. I told her to set off with my father and me, and went to the Marquis Mansion to ask for succession, but my younger sister had to go first alone. If there is a mistake, wouldn’t it be a waste of suffering.”

The servant persuaded, "Young Master, don't be impatient. The eldest lady has always been astute, and she will not let herself suffer. Moreover, the eldest lady went to Beijing alone, and was wronged in the mansion. Hold some excuses so that the Hou mansion can let go and agree to come out." Continue. Otherwise, even if the patriarch comes forward in person, I am afraid that the Hou Mansion will not let him go easily. Didn’t the eldest lady say that even the gods have to hide what is really going to happen, otherwise there will be countless ghosts and snakes jumping out to stop him .”

When Cheng Lang heard this, he looked at the person in front of him amusedly, "You should remember whatever your eldest lady says casually, and take it as a standard. It really stands out for you."

The tone of the speech is friendly, and it seems that he is not an ordinary servant.

The man scratched his head, "Of course, since I followed the eldest lady, I haven't suffered any disadvantages, and the caravans in our Chengjia Village have become more and more respectable, and people treat them as honored guests wherever they go. I have no skills. I can only run errands for the young lady, so naturally I have to listen to the young lady."

It turned out to be a member of the ancestral caravan.

Moreover, most of the ancestral lands are people with the same surname, maybe this person is still a relative.

Among the family relatives, it is rare not to be jealous, but to sincerely respect.Hearing what the person in front of him said, Cheng Lang was also a little emotional.He stood up and patted the shoulder of the person in front of him.

"Brother Daren is right. My little sister has worked hard to plan for our ancestral land since she was a child, and this has made the life of our ancestral land prosperous. Now, we must settle the matter of succession as soon as possible, otherwise, if the Hou family knows They are afraid that they will never let go of my little sister's ability."

Hearing what Cheng Lang said, Cheng Daren nodded resolutely, "Don't worry, the brothers in the clan have been waiting outside the palace for a long time, and will spread the news as soon as possible."

Cheng Lang nodded, "Now, let's wait for when Dad will arrive."

Speaking of this, Cheng Lang was a little amused, "Little sister is too rich, so I insisted on asking my father to deposit a batch of goods for her, saying that thieves would not leave empty space, and that they could not make a trip in vain after traveling thousands of miles. gone."

Hearing what the third son said, Li Daren also scratched his head and smiled, this is indeed the style of the young lady.

In the palace, after lunch, Cheng Yuguan went to Ninghui Hall while the empress was taking a nap.

She was bored in the palace, so she could only go to Ninghui Palace to pass the time every day.

"You are Cheng Yuguan?"

Suddenly, a voice made Cheng Yuguan stop.
