Colorful

Chapter 89
Naturally, Shen Jing didn't want Ji Cheng to be approached by Chu De, so he said, "If you eat too much meat, it's not easy to get rid of greasy food. Nishang has prepared ebony tea. Sister Cheng, go and get a cup."

Hearing this, Ji Cheng got up and went to the Chaoyun Pavilion, Su Yun looked at her back and more and more believed in Ji Cheng's frivolity, otherwise why would someone like Chu De get close to her instead of anyone?Su Yun turned away his eyes, as if looking at Ji Cheng one more time would make his eyes dirty.

After the crowd dispersed, there was only a messy snow field left on the top of Jiuliyuan, with black footprints everywhere, and the white and pure world was immediately unappetizing like a face covered with pockmarks.

While tidying up the cups and saucers, Yuyi complained to Nishang: "Oh, I don't know how long it will take to cover this piece of snow again. My son likes snow the most, and now I'm afraid it won't come up for a long time."

Nishang said: "There is a lot of snow this winter, there will definitely be snow again in a few days, don't worry."

Yu Yi blushed: "What am I worried about?"

Nishang smiled lightly and stopped talking.As for what Yuyi was worried about, it was naturally that there was no snow in the house, so he couldn't keep that person.

However, Nishang's words are indeed right. It's snowy this winter. In response to Ji Cheng, he specially painted a set of four "Plum in Snow, Bamboo in Snow, Pine in Snow, Boat in Snow" for sale in Qingzang Pavilion.Although the sales volume of Qingjian is good, the money for this idea is really nothing to Ji Cheng, it's just a name.

When Shen Xun came to look for Ji Cheng, Ji Cheng had just finished writing, and she saw Ji Cheng's new flower paper with a sharp eye: "Sister Cheng, have you made a new flower paper?"

Ji Cheng let out a "hmm", and only looked at a girl beside Shen Xun, looking a little confused: "Who is this?"

"Yeah." Shen Xun was looking at Ji Cheng's newly made snow note, almost forgetting his friend, "This is Ning, she just returned to Beijing a few days ago, so sister Cheng naturally doesn't know her."

He Ning is the apple of the eye of the Annan Governor, and her mother is the daughter of Zhou's family, a doctor of the capital Guanglu. This time, she brought her back to Beijing to celebrate Mrs. Zhou's birthday.Shen Yuxian's young lady is also the granddaughter of this Zhou family, so they are related to each other. Shen Xun and He Ning have played together since childhood, and they separated when He Ning went to Annan.

"Sister Cheng, you don't know. I have been communicating with her for the past two years since Ah Ning left. In the past six months, she saw that the paper I used was beautiful, and kept asking me which company it was from. This time I returned to Beijing. The person from Jian is at our house, and he must come to see you." Shen Xun pushed He Ning in front of Ji Cheng.

He Ning smiled embarrassedly: "Sister Cheng."

He Ning's age was similar to Shen Xun's, she was graceful and delicate, with a bit of shyness, she was very cute, making people fall in love with her at first sight.

Ji Cheng hurriedly let the two of them sit down, and Liu Ye'er quickly served tea, because Shen Xun was familiar with each other, He Ning and Ji Cheng soon became acquainted.

It was not until the continuation of the story that Ji Cheng found out that when He Ning was in the south, he also asked Mr. Ziyu to learn painting as a teacher.

"I think Sister Cheng's painting has a bit of Mr. Sanhe's artistic conception. I wonder if Sister Cheng knows Mr. Sanhe?" He Ning asked.

Ji Cheng didn't answer, but asked instead: "It seems that Ah Ning is very familiar with Mr. Sanhe's painting style, so do you know who Mr. Sanhe is?"

He Ning nodded when she heard the words: "This time I am going back to Beijing with my mother, and Mr. Ziyu asked me to go to Mr. Sanhe to say hello, and my husband also mentioned a disciple."

Ji Cheng heaved a sigh of relief and smiled: "Sorry, Ah Ning, Madam has been quiet these past few years and doesn't like to socialize, so I didn't get her permission, and I didn't dare to reveal her identity, so I just tried it out. I can't pay you here."

Ji Cheng stood up and made a bow to He Ning, causing He Ning to cover her mouth and smile coquettishly: "Sister Cheng, don't do this, I understand." He Ning blinked at Ji Cheng.

As far as they are concerned, there is no need to rely on the name of the master to add aura to themselves. He Ning learns to paint because he really likes to paint.He Ning likes Ji Cheng's way of not using Mrs. Yu's name to invite her. Before she came, she heard that Ji's family was a merchant, and she still had some doubts about whether Qing Jian's dusty and unique paper was Ji Cheng. Cheng did it, and now seeing him in person, all doubts disappeared, and I only felt that apart from Ji Cheng, no one else could make clear notes.

He Ning fell in love with Ji Cheng at first sight, and the girls chatted for a long time.Before leaving, He Ning took Ji Cheng's hand and repeatedly told her to let her visit Zhou's house.

Although Zhou's family is only He Ning's natal family, but judging by her appearance, there is no difference between her being in Zhou's family and He's family, they are all generally favored.

Ji Cheng thought it was just a polite remark, but after a few days, He Ningzhen sent Ji Cheng a message.When Ji Cheng and Shen Xun went to Zhou's house together, when He Ning's mother Mrs. Zhou saw Ji Cheng, she even held hands and asked questions very enthusiastically.

Ji Cheng had never received such treatment among the noble ladies in the capital, and he felt a little flattered.It turns out that Mrs. Zhou also likes painting, otherwise she would not have sent He Ning to Hangzhou for three months every spring, just to learn painting from Mr. Ziyu.

From then on, He Ning often came to visit Ji Cheng, and often invited Ji Cheng to visit Zhou's house.Shen Xun naturally accompanied him every time, and Ji Cheng quickly learned about the He family from Shen Xun.

He Ning has two older brothers. The eldest son inherited his father's career and found a job under his father. Now he is married. The second son is eighteen this year and has not yet settled on a marriage.

When Shen Xun talked about the second son of the He family, he always looked at Ji Cheng with his eyes. She was so careful, how could Ji Cheng not see it? ?This thought was too obvious and straightforward, and Ji Cheng didn't point it out.

At the end, when Shen Xun mentioned it to Su Yun, he was a little puzzled and said: "I don't think Sister Cheng seems to be in a hurry at all."

Su Yun said: "She is a girl's family, how can she put her anxiety on her face, she is about the same age as me, she must be anxious if she hasn't gotten married at this time. Now we sisters, I'm all engaged, and she still doesn't know Where the future is, I don't feel well."

Shen Xun said: "Actually, I think Second Brother He is pretty good, and Mrs. Zhou is kind, but I don't know if Sister Cheng is willing."

"Is there anything she would like or not?" Su Yun snorted, "If Mrs. Zhou really likes her, just wait and see, Sister Cheng is definitely willing to make this marriage."

Ji Cheng didn't know what Shen Xun and Su Yun were talking about, because the winter solstice was coming soon.The winter solstice is as big as the new year, and the Shen family has to worship their ancestors and pray to the gods, but once the winter solstice is over, it will be the end of the new year, and the accounts of all shops have to be counted.

Ji Cheng often went to Lanhua Lane these days, and the people in that house kept coming and going, and the sound of abacus could be heard at twelve hours a day.

Ji Cheng has under his command girls specially trained to settle accounts. They came to the capital from Jindi before the winter solstice. They will calculate the accounts, and compare them with the calculations made by the accountant to check for errors.

Because half of the money was allocated to pave the road to the Western Regions this year, the profit is not as good as in previous years, but it is still decent.

By the time Ji Cheng is busy with this period, it will already be the end of November.Before she could catch her breath, she encountered another difficult matter that she did not want to get involved in at all.

When Shen Cui appeared in front of Ji Cheng with a pale face, she thought she saw a ghost. Although Ji Cheng was a bit busy during this time, he never missed a day to greet Ji Lan sooner or later. Having met Shen Cui, why does she look like a different person now?In the winter, fine sweat droplets can be seen on the forehead.

"What's wrong?" Ji Cheng took Shen Cui's hand and sat down, and found that her hand was as cold as ice. Ji Cheng stuffed the old silver hand warmer at hand into Shen Cui's palm, and asked again, " what happened?"

But Shen Cui was fine, as soon as he came in, he looked like a gourd with its mouth sawn off, without saying a word, his eyes were red with red circles, he was thinking about something.

In fact, a person like Ji Cheng had already guessed about the matter, so he didn't take the initiative to speak up. If Shen Cui didn't tell her, she couldn't ask for it.

Shen Cui lowered her head and hugged the heater in her hand. In fact, she didn't know why she came here, but when she found out that something was wrong with her, she was so frightened that her hands and feet were cold and she felt that everything was over. He was so angry that he killed her, and then she came straight to Ji Cheng.

Even Shen Cui didn't know it, but she subconsciously wanted to find Ji Cheng whenever she encountered difficulties, as if Ji Cheng could do everything for her.

But at this moment, Shen Cui's mind was able to turn a little bit, and she remembered what Ji Cheng reminded her at the beginning, and what did she say at that time?There must have been embarrassment for a while, but compared with the piece of meat on her body, it was nothing.

"Sister Cheng, I, I might be pregnant." Although Shen Cui hesitated, she still got the words out.

Although Ji Cheng did expect that Shen Cui and Qi Zheng might not be in heat, but he never expected that Shen Cui would be pregnant.

"What should I do, Sister Cheng?" Shen Cui let go of the hand stove, and firmly grasped Ji Cheng's hand with both hands.The force was so great that Ji Cheng frowned in pain.

"Why are you so stupid?" Ji Cheng said angrily, if you really have a child, you can't hide it, let alone Shen Cui's life will be ruined, even the reputation of the girl from the Shen family will be affected by her of.

"I..." Shen Cui's eyes turned sour, and tears rolled out, "What's the use of you scolding me now, help me find a way." Shen Cui was also so anxious that she couldn't help it, tears flowed into a river.

"Don't worry, don't worry, let me think about it." Ji Cheng pulled out his hand, and patted the back of Shen Cui's hand to comfort her, "Sit down, I'll go take a look outside."

Ji Cheng stood up and walked to the door, winked at Liu Ye'er who was waiting outside, and told her to guard the door and never let anyone approach her.

After all these arrangements were made, Ji Cheng returned to Shen Cui's side.According to Ji Cheng's estimation, Qi Zheng probably did this on purpose.After all, Shen Cui is everyone's daughter, no matter how frivolous she is, she will never do such careless things before getting married.
