Painting Tang Jiao

Chapter 158
If it's just such a playmate who can be regarded as a childhood friend, Cheng Jingxin is very optimistic and appreciates it.But there are too many bad things in his family, no... It should be said that there are more things now than before.

Cheng Jingxin didn't want his cousin, who was like a little white rabbit, to come out of one wolf's den and enter another tiger's den.

Of course, what the little white rabbit said was just his thoughts.

Qing Huan did not admit it.

Rong Chen poured the wine: "Let's talk."

It's just that his complexion is not very good.

Cheng Jingxin frowned, but didn't say anything.

Yan Jun wandered outside for quite a while, followed by Leshan Leshui, not to mention the big and small bags, and the people sent out by Cheng Jingxin and Rong Chen also hugged a lot.

"Why do you buy so many things like a bitch?"

Yan Jun was thirsty from shopping, drank a big bowl of tea, wrinkled her nose and said unceremoniously to Cheng Jingxin: "Cousin, you are wrong, I bought you a gift in vain."

Rong Chen looked at Cheng Jingxin's expression froze, felt funny in his heart, and heard Yan Jun say: "Not only my cousin, but uncle and the others also bought it, as well as Grandma Princess and Mother Xia, ah...I'm sure I haven't forgotten Brother Rong's. "Yan Jun thought for a while to make sure that everyone who wanted to buy bought it, and then let go of her mind.

Rong Chen said, "You're sensible."

From the people Yan Jun counted just now, almost all the people he knew were counted.

Rong Chen knew that Yan Jun didn't have a good impression of those people in Yan's mansion, but this time he didn't miss everyone in Yan's mansion, which shows that he was really sensible.

When Yan Jun was sent back, Xia Cao and Que'er carried things into the inner courtyard with big bags and small bags.

Qing Huan was stunned for a long time before ordering Mancao and the others to tidy up the things and deliver them to the old lady and the eldest lady.After all, it was Yan Jun's intention.

Qing Huan smiled: "Don't be jealous, you guys probably have some too."

Mancao smiled and said, "Young master loves us."

Qing Huan shook her head helplessly and asked: "Is it for Aunt Liu again?" After a few times, she was still used to calling Aunt Liu, but when she was in her room, she just called her that way.

"Well, there are. But I heard from the young master that Mr. Rong took it back directly." Mr. Wu is still following Rong Chen, and I heard that he bought it and settled in the small courtyard.

Just thinking about Rong Chen inevitably made me think about what happened in her house.

I don't know what those two people are thinking, it's not enough to compete for favor in the mansion, but there are still rumors about it.It made Rong's mansion become a joke among people in Beijing after dinner.

When I went to Rongshoutang to pay my respects several times, the second wife still joked about this topic.

At first Qing Huan just listened, but later she didn't respond at all.

Fortunately, the second wife also felt that the boredom did not continue after all, but it seemed that she was still not sad about Rong Chen.

Qing Huan sighed, the fourth girl has been telling Qing Huan about her affairs, the marriage that the second master found for him, and her grievances these days.

But what about yourself?
I am a girl who has not left the cabinet, meddling in the marriage between brothers is just going to gossip.Not to mention he's a man outside, besides, can Rong Chen really listen to him?

Qing Huan didn't believe it.

At least in Qing Huan's view, Rong Chen is a very thoughtful person.She definitely won't let others influence her, anyway, it's not a good thing, Qing Huan is not willing to stand up for such a thing.

Besides?

Qing Huan sneered, why did Miss Si ask her to help?
Could it be that she really thinks that she is a holy mother, that she doesn't care about what others have done, but instead works hard to help them.

Could it be that the marriage of the third girl, the fifth girl and the sixth girl gave her this idea?

Qing Huan thought it was funny.

During dinner, Yan Jun came to Qing Huan's yard.

Yan Jun blushed and asked, "Sister, do you like the gift?"

Qing Huan deliberately turned her head away, just showing the back of her head.

Yan Jun immediately smiled.

Could it be that there was a hairpin made of mahogany stuck in Qing Huan's hair.

Although it is worthless, it is expensive in the mind.

Qing Huan was also very happy.

"Come here." Qing Huan waved.

Yan Jun stepped forward with a smile.

Qing Huan took out a string of rosary beads from her bosom: "This is a rosary that has been enshrined in front of the Buddha for a whole year for three hundred and sixty-five days. It is the most spiritual. My sister doesn't ask for anything else, I just hope that Jun'er will be happy in the future." Heart, grow up safely."

Yan Jun bit her lip and said, "I will still fight for my sister."

"Okay." Qing Huan smiled and rubbed Yan Jun's head.

Yan Jun hid for a while: "Sister and Brother Rong both like to touch my hair."

Qing Huan was slightly taken aback.

Yan Jun whispered: "I think my sister and Brother Rong are both good, but unfortunately... Brother Rong's house is not good."

Qing Huan was stunned.

How could such words come out of Yan Jun's mouth?

Could it be that someone said something in front of Yan Jun?
Qing Huan's eyes sharpened, and the first thing that came to mind was naturally the Fourth Miss or the Second Wife.

Yan Jun pursed her lips and said, "My cousin also thinks it's good."

"But...forget it."

Yan Jun sighed like a little adult.

Qing Huan just wanted to laugh at him, but suddenly realized that this little man who used to protect her back had grown longer than her shoulders, and was no longer a child.

Really grown up.

Qing Huan's eyes turned red.

Ever since Yan Jun was five years old, Qing Huan has been thinking about waiting until the day Yan Jun grows up.Knowing how to protect her when she grows up can start to overturn the case about her father.

It turned out to be really grown up.

Five years, it turned out that almost five years had passed.

"Sister, what's wrong with you? I... I won't talk about this anymore." Yan Jun was taken aback by Qing Huan's appearance, and shouted outside: "Sister Mancao, come here quickly."

Weeds rushed in from outside.

"Girl, what's wrong with you?" Mancao was also startled.

Qing Huan shook her head: "It's okay, it's just..." Qing Huan looked at Mancao: "It's just that you two are not young anymore, so it's almost five years."

Man Cao blushed a little at first, but soon understood what Qing Huan meant.

Five years ago, when they first came to Yan's mansion, Qing Huan's sister and brother were in a situation where their servants and Aunt Liu had to live in this mansion carefully.

But... five years have passed.

Finally, I can no longer live in a humble way like that time.

It's just... Just like Qing Huan thought of Man Cao's age, Man Cao was also worried about Qing Huan.The girl is about to graduate, but there is no news at all.

How can this be done.

Mancao's eyes flashed, and she made a decision in her heart.

I have to go to Cheng Mansion and Rong Mansion to ask for help.

only……

Mancao bit her lip hard.

She is just a servant.

Linglu came in from the outside at this moment: "What's the matter?"

Mancao came back to her senses and shook her head with a smile: "The girl has sand in her eyes."

"Has it blown?" Ling Lu didn't believe it, but when she saw Mancao winking at her, she still said it.

"I blew it." Qing Huan said with a cheerful smile, "Our Jun'er blew it."

Yan Jun pursed her lips and hummed.

Mancao asked Linglu: "Where did you go just now?"

Linglu groaned, patted her head and said, "Girl, the eldest lady asked you to prepare, saying that you are going out as a guest tomorrow?"

"Where are you going?" Qing Huan asked.

Ling Lu shook her head blankly: "The eldest lady didn't say anything."

Qing Huan frowned, she had to ask.

Let's talk about the situation, but I don't know what the eldest wife wants to do.

"Girl, I'll fetch a basin of water." Mancao said with a smile.

Qing Huan nodded.

It's just that after Wencao went out, she came back quickly, with empty hands, but when she saw Youyuan holding a copper basin behind her.

Qing Huan smiled.

After Qing Huan cleansed her face, she changed into another outfit.

"Where's the creeper?"

"Send the young master back." Xiang Nong replied.

Qing Huan raised her eyebrows.

Isn't there summer grass?

After going to the main courtyard, Mother Cui waited at the gate with a smile.

Qing Huan stepped forward: "Mother Cui."

Cui's mother smiled and said, "The eldest lady said that the girl must come here. I didn't believe it. I didn't expect that the eldest lady guessed it right. Please come in quickly, girl."

Qing Huan responded with a smile.

How could Mama Cui say she didn't believe the eldest wife said such a thing?

It's just to say it to myself on purpose.

What do you want to express?
Does it mean that the eldest wife sees through some of her own thoughts?

Qing Huan sneered in her heart, but on her face she asked, "Is my sister-in-law okay? I heard that a doctor was invited to come and see her two days ago? Is it strange for my little nephew? I still have quite a few bird's nests at my place. They are said to be pregnant women." It’s best to eat this. I’ll ask Mancao and the others to send some over later.”

"Seventh girl is the most caring." The eldest lady inside smiled when she heard Qing Huan's words and walked inside holding Qing Huan's hand.

Qing Huan blushed: "I wanted to keep it quiet, but I didn't expect the eldest lady to hear it."

"You child." The eldest wife patted Qing Huan's shoulder affectionately.

After entering the house, the eldest wife took Qing Huan to sit on the bed together.

Qing Huan backed down a bit, but in the end she couldn't resist the eldest wife's hand and was pulled to sit down.

"You are always so polite," said the eldest lady.

Qing Huan said: "This is not being polite, the eldest wife is an elder, and she must respect you."

The two went back and forth like this.

The eldest wife finally got to the point: "Are you asking about tomorrow's affairs?"

Qing Huan nodded: "That's right, my servant girl is confused, and she can't hear what the eldest wife is saying clearly. Forget it, everyone says that the eldest wife is kind-hearted, and everyone in the house doesn't know that the eldest wife treats me the best. But that's okay. That maid came to ask you the last question, you really can't tell her again. But she is a timid person, just hiding in the yard. Hey... I, the master, must come here in person gone."

Regarding Qing Huan's words, the eldest lady just smiled: "It's from Grandma Jiang's house, and I mentioned it to the old lady a few days ago."

Qing Huan came to a sudden.

I thought that the eldest lady was just talking, but I didn't expect it to be true.

A trace of surprise flashed in Qing Huan's eyes, could it be that the eldest wife is really so kind?Have you really transformed all the maternal love for the second girl into yourself?

Qing Huan didn't believe it.

The madam's crazy appearance a few times is firmly in Qing Huan's mind.

"You are not young anymore." The eldest wife took Qing Huan's hand and said with emotion: "I remember that when you first arrived at the mansion, you were a thin-skinned person who was cautious and didn't talk much. Originally, the eldest aunt was still worried. What can you do with your temperament in the future. Fortunately... After five years, you will grow up after all. "

Qing Huan lowered her head slightly, her shoulders trembled, her voice choked with sobs: "Eldest Wife, you...you still remember."

The eldest wife's eyes flashed, she looked at Qing Huan who was bowing her head, and said with a smile: "No, I'm a reporter."

On Qing Huan's drooping face, his expression was cold.

I'm afraid you are a reporter.

I just don't know if you can remember how the second girl got married.

Thinking of Ya Huan, Qing Huan's nose turned sour, tears really dripped down.

"You silly child." The eldest wife handed over the handkerchief and raised Qing Huan's head, and when her eyes turned on her face, she realized that she was really sad, and then she sighed: "I'm sorry to see you. How did you cry? Wipe it off quickly."

Qing Huan hummed lightly.

"I'm not cold-hearted either. I know you're a good person after all these years." The eldest wife looked at Qing Huan lovingly: "Grandma Jiang San, you have met before..."

Qing Huan nodded slightly: "I've seen it before, it was the time with the third sister..."

As he spoke, his face suddenly turned red.

The eldest wife smiled with satisfaction: "The girl's family has reached a certain age, so she is going to get married. There is nothing to be shy about. There will be a banquet at Mrs. Jiang's house tomorrow. The auntie wants to take you to see it together." .”

Qing Huan frowned.

The eldest wife immediately said: "You are not allowed to refuse, you silly child, could the eldest aunt still harm you?"

"Of course not." Qing Huan explained in a panic, "I'm just afraid."

The eldest wife hugged Qing Huan affectionately: "Don't be afraid, I will follow the eldest wife tomorrow."

Qing Huan hummed almost imperceptibly.

……

the next morning.

Mancao and the others dressed up Qing Huan in a good way.

"Girl, Xiang Nong and I will follow you there today." Qing Huan was not the only one who was on guard against the eldest wife, everyone here was also wary of her.

Linglu knows that although she is older and has many governors, she is not as calm as Xiangnong in many places.

It's just a matter of character.

It's not that she's bad.

Therefore, she was not dissatisfied with Mancao's proposal, instead she took Xiang Nong and instructed her carefully: "Be good at serving the girl, and stay with Mancao not to leave the girl's side."

Qing Huan couldn't help but smile and said: "It's not a big deal, I just went to meet people today."

This is the first day.

The eldest wife should not think about what to do.

This day, I'm afraid it's just spreading the news about what I want to see.

Qing Huan thought about it all night yesterday.

I think the eldest wife is probably thinking of selling herself for a good price.After all, the third girl is not for her use, not to mention that her biological mother, Aunt Qing, is still there, and she has a compatriot brother.

But Qing Huan is different, she doesn't have an elder.

The eldest wife's shot was justified.

Besides, Yan Jun is still young.

Qing Huan's performance yesterday would probably satisfy her, thinking that she had really let go of her guard.

Or there may be doubts in the future.

But that doesn't mean she can't benefit from it.

Of course, such a major premise is that Qing Huan's marriage was arranged by her.

Qing Huan sneered in her heart.

Could it be that the eldest wife has really forgotten that she still has her uncle's family.

In fact, it's not that the eldest lady forgot.

Rather, she was confident that she would find a marriage that the Cheng family would not object to, but would also benefit her. Besides, in the eyes of the eldest wife and others, Qing Huan's conditions were not considered good.

At least dowry is a big problem.

The carriage stopped at the gate of the Jiang Mansion for a while, and then went directly into the inner gate.

There, a servant led him to the inner courtyard.

There are already many ladies and wives sitting there in the main courtyard.

Of course, the girl's house seems to be the only one going there.

Qing Huan quickly figured out the reason, at least when the big ladies looked at her with disdain, especially when there was a slight look of contempt in their eyes.

Qing Huan understood a lot.

I'm afraid that today the topic was directly brought up.

Originally, Qing Huan should not have come here.

After all, the wives and wives probably want to directly talk about the situation of which young master and which girl.

After all, Qing Huan is still a girl who has not left the court, so she really shouldn't come here.

But if it is really said that the eldest wife has bad intentions, it is inappropriate.

Just in such a state.

Qing Huan responded to everyone's questions.

"How old?"

Qing Huan smiled shyly: "It's almost fifteen."

"Who else is in the house?"

"There's another younger brother." Seeing that Qing Huan's eyes were about to turn red, the eldest wife said: "I said you are not allowed to bully my niece, but I want to feel sorry for you."

Grandma Jiang San smiled and said: "I know, I know, now you are shutting up about your seventh girl, and opening your mouth about your seventh girl."

The eldest wife laughed loudly: "This is my niece."

Everyone laughed.

Qing Huan pursed her lips.

Sure enough, he shouldn't have come here.

But I thought, if I don't come, I'm afraid the eldest wife will be suspicious.

It's just that it wasn't long after returning from Mrs. Jiang San. Sure enough, many people in Beijing knew that the seventh girl of the Yan family had reached her age.

"What a femme fatale." Princess Danyang also heard the rumor, and cursed directly: "If it really hurts her heart and took it as her niece, how could she do such a thing.

Xia's mother also yelled: "Blame me, blame me."

Princess Danyang sighed: "How can I blame you, that child... hey... is really pitiful." Then asked: "How is Brother Rong's house now, are those people still making trouble?"

Mother Xia sighed,

"That's right, it's been making endless noises. Beijing has been discussing Brother Rong's affairs for the past few days, but now I'm afraid it's just another Qinghuan matter."

"These two children, why are they so miserable."

Mother Xia's heart aches when she thinks about it.

Brother Rong has grown up with her since she was a child. Mother Xia is not fake about Qing Huan's feelings. Although she originally liked Yan Jun more, that girl is also a good girl.

How could Mama Xia not like it?

Princess Danyang's eyes flashed: "Yes, it's not easy for both of you."
