Poor children

Chapter 99 Qianjin Tea Party 5
一
"You come back with me right now..." Chenghe picked up Sheng Rongwen and left.
Sheng Rongwen didn't dare to speak or argue, so he had to follow him.
"Hey! Brother Chenghe, don't be angry!" Shuting pointed at the back of the two leaving
There were two rows of carriages parked outside the door, all brought by the ladies who came to attend the tea party.

"Ma San! Ma San!" Chenghe called

"Young Master..." Ma San ran over when he heard Cheng He calling him.

"Go and get the car over"

"Yes" Ma San agreed and ran towards his carriage, brought the carriage to the gate, put down the footstool and raised the door curtain.
Cheng He tied his horse to the back of the carriage, stepped forward to help Sheng Rongwen get into the carriage, and then got into the carriage himself. Ma San put down the door curtain, put away the horse stool and jumped into the carriage, raised his whip, and the carriage Then he squeaked on the road.
The carriage started shaking very much. Sheng Rongwen couldn't sit still because of something in her heart, so she threw herself on Cheng He. Seeing Cheng He's unhappy face, she immediately sat up, and neither of them spoke anymore.
Seeing Sheng Rongwen sitting there with a bitter face, feeling aggrieved alone, wanting to say something but unable to, Chenghe felt angry and funny.
After finally being silent for a long time, Sheng Rongwen couldn't hold it back and spoke first, "I'm sorry! Chenghe..."

"Where did you go wrong?" Chenghe asked

"No...I don't know..." Sheng Rongwen really didn't know the reason. She just saw that he was angry and apologized unconsciously.
"It seems very insincere to apologize when you don't know where you are wrong."

"Then why don't you tell me where I went wrong and I'll change it next time?"

"Who said you were wrong?"

"Then why are you angry?"

"I'm angry because you are too honest. You just accept what others say about you. Won't you refute it back?" Cheng He asked.

"Let's settle the matter. I don't want to conflict with others. Let her say a few words without missing anything..."

"In short, you are not allowed to attend such tea parties in the future."

"They said that when I get married, they won't let me come even if I want to," Sheng Rongwen said.

"That's better!"

It was a crisp autumn day and the weather was not too hot at noon. The second lady took Sheng Rongwen and Kan Lianrong to do needlework in the yard. They were all pretty good at sewing. Within a few days, the wedding dress already looked good.

"Madam" Xiang Xing suddenly came in and reported, "Miss Zhang Yuhua from the infantry commander's office and Miss Chen Rufang from the minister's office at the Ministry of Works are asking for an audience."

"Huh?" The second lady put down her needle and thread and said with some confusion, "Aren't these two ladies here to see Baozhen and Chunya? Why are they here?"

"Back to Madam, they are here to see Miss Sheng," Xiang Xing reported back.

"Hey! We finally have a girl in our yard," the second lady laughed, "please come in, please."

After a while, the two ladies followed a little girl into the courtyard. Sheng Rongwen immediately stood up to greet her. After a while of greetings with the girls, Sheng Rongwen took the two girls to meet the two ladies.

"Hey! It's good, it's really good..." said the second lady, "Since I only have two boys, young girls don't often come to this courtyard. Now it's good, I can also have fun with the girls. Come on, Xiangxing, go and get the melons and grapes that Chengzhe asked people to bring from the northwest for the girls to try."

"Look, sister, you're happy." Kan Lianrong also put down her needle and thread, ordered the little girl to clean up, and served half a cup of tea. The girl is really lively”

While several people were talking, Chenghe and Zhaoqing happened to enter the hospital together.
"Hey! Look, whoever you say is here. Our eldest young master is back." The second lady laughed.
Several girls stood up
"Didn't the four aunts see their son?" Zhao Qing asked

"My son, among all my nephews, I love you the most. How can I not see you? Come here quickly, there are delicious melons for you to eat."

After Zhao Qing heard the words, he walked forward. He refused to sit down if there was a seat close to the second lady. Instead, he sat next to Chen Rufang, but did not look at her. Although he sat next to her, he still only talked to the second lady. Chen Rufang Rufang was shy by nature. She had never sat so close to a man before, so she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, so she moved the stool unconsciously. Zhaoqing moved with her, making both the second lady and Kan Lianrong unable to hold back their joy.

As soon as Cheng He sat down, Sheng Rongwen hurriedly brought the tea and handed it to him. After he drank the tea, he put down the tea bowl. Sheng Rongwen put a few grapes with seeds removed into his hand.
"Aunt, where are Jingxiu and Wanxi?" Chenghe asked

"Both of them are taking a nap. These two children are usually very noisy, but they are quieter only now."

"Hey? What kind of dance did you dance that day? Why haven't I seen it before?" Zhao Qing suddenly asked Chen Rufang

"Tianzhu...wu..." Chen Rufang tried her best to control the distance between the two. The second lady looked at them and found it funny, so she asked, "Rufang, have you ever promised your husband's family?"

"Back to Madam, I haven't promised anyone yet."

"Given your age, you should be married to someone else. How about I be a matchmaker for you?"

"It's naturally good if Madam Meng favors her..."

"Whose boy do you want the fourth lady to keep her with?" Zhao Qing asked hurriedly.
"You want to take care of it? Anyway, I won't guarantee it to you." The second lady laughed
The tall man in Zhaoqing suddenly started acting coquettishly towards the second lady, "The fourth lady keeps saying she loves her son, how come she only thinks about others when she has good things going on?"

"Ouch! Ouch! Amitabha! Can someone save me? It's incredible. Now Jingxiu doesn't act like a spoiled child anymore. With such a big baby like you, who's girl dares to have you? Is it possible that we need to raise another one? Isn’t he a son?”

Seeing him like this, Chen Rufang found it funny and couldn't help covering her mouth with a handkerchief and laughing.

"Madam! Madam!" Xiangxing hurriedly ran into the courtyard again.

"You girl, why are you panicking? What's wrong?" The second lady didn't want to see others in such a hurry.

"Madam..." Xiang Xing gasped anxiously, "Madam... Young Master Chengzhe is back..."

"What? Where is it?" The second lady suddenly stood up.
"I just came in. I went to say hello to my ancestors. I'll be here soon."

"Hurry, hurry, hurry! Go and greet..." Chenghe and Zhaoqing went out to greet

"This living ancestor is finally back." After saying this, the second lady wiped her tears with a handkerchief. As soon as she finished speaking, she heard someone calling her mother outside the courtyard. Following the call, Chengzhe ran in quickly and grabbed the two of them. The lady picked her up and spun her around in circles several times.

"My Chengzhe is back! My son is back..." the second lady laughed
"Mom! My son is back." Chengzhe put down the second wife and saw Kan Lianrong saying, "Greetings to my aunt!"

"Chengzhe! I haven't seen you for a few years, and you've grown so big..." Kan Lianrong said

"Who are these?" Chengzhe saw a few unfamiliar girls in the yard.

"This is your brother's fiancée, Sheng Rongwen, the daughter of the capital's admiral Sheng Ren."

"Oh! Say hello to my sister-in-law." Chengzhe greeted him.
Sheng Rongwen returned the gift with a smile
"This is Chen Rufang, the daughter of the Minister of Industry."

"Hello sister!" Chengzhe has a good mouth.

"This is Zhang Yuhua, the granddaughter of the infantry commander's family."

"Hi sister..."

"I heard that your master is the best general in the northwest. How does he compare with my grandfather?" Zhang Yuhua asked.
"There has always been peace between the Northwest and the Central Plains, why does my sister still want to fight without success?" Chengzhe asked

"Second Young Master is overthinking it. A martial artist will naturally want to compete with others, just to learn from each other. How about finding a day someday for you and me to compete first?"

"I'm afraid that people will say I bully my sister," Chengzhe laughed.

"Okay! Okay! Stop fighting and killing all day long. Come and sit down." The second lady took Chengzhe and asked everyone to sit down.
As the mother and son were walking, the second lady asked Chengzhe in a low voice, "Where is she?"

"Go back to mother. I brought her back. She has gone back to the backyard to settle down."

"Your father doesn't know you are back yet. When he comes back in the evening, you should go and see him first. Your father is waiting to see her as soon as possible," the second lady said
"Yes! Girl, I understand..."
