Chapter 144
Ji Songxian stayed in the greenhouse for a while, then cut some flowers and took them back to put in vases.

When she returned to the house, the sky outside was getting darker and the snow was getting heavier and heavier. Seeing that she was fine, Cheng Huaijin suggested: "Why don't I ask the housekeeper to gather the servants to recognize the mistress, and then send the servants to the house to recognize the mistress?" I will give you the account books at home and the keys and cards of each storeroom."

Ji Songxian looked at the sky and shook his head and said: "Well, why is it such a cold day, it's nothing to make them freeze again this time, I'm not in a hurry, let's talk about it when the weather is good."

When she said so, Cheng Huaijin didn't say anything else, and the two of them had nothing to do, so they took the chessboard and arranged troops in square inches.

Ji Songxian had learned Go before, and his chess skills were not bad, but she played chess with Cheng Huaijin, and she lost very easily every time. After a few games, Ji Songxian didn't follow him, and had to regret a few moves from time to time However, Cheng Huaijin also let her go, it's always killing time, if she wants to regret the game, tell her to regret it.

After only five or six games of chess, Steward He replied at the door: "Master, madam, Duke Cheng's mansion has sent some servants over."

"Duke Cheng's Mansion?"

Ji Songxian sneered while tidying up the chessboard: "Dare they take what the former master said as fart? None of them felt ashamed and ashamed, but they came to the door again to be scolded."

After hearing this, Steward He who was standing at the door felt cold and became even more afraid to speak.

Cheng Huaijin put away the chess pieces, got up and walked to the door: "Just say that there is no shortage of people in our house, let's send them away."

Butler He responded, turned around and left, and came back after a while: "Master, the old man of Cheng Guogong's mansion has come in person, and said he wants to see the master."

Butler He just finished speaking, when he saw a young boy running over in a hurry: "Master, master, something is wrong, the old man of Cheng Guogong's mansion is mad at our door."

When Ji Songxian heard this, how could he sit still, he immediately got up and went to the door and asked in surprise: "What's going on?"

This matter started from the day before yesterday when Cheng Ping'an came to congratulate and was scolded by Cheng Huaijin.

That day, Cheng Ping'an returned to Duke Cheng's mansion out of embarrassment and anger. As soon as he returned, he spoke back to Duke Cheng. It happened that Duke Cheng was talking in Zhou's room. Concerned and asked: "My son, what's the matter? Didn't I ask you to congratulate me, what's the matter..."

It's okay if you don't mention this, but when you mention this, Cheng Ping'an immediately explodes, pushes aside the girl who is about to pick up the big clothes on him in front of Mrs Zhou and Cheng Guogong, sits down angrily, and grabs it. The teacup was thrown on the ground fiercely: "Are they all dead people, dare to serve such hot tea up."

As soon as he had an attack, several girls below were terrified, and tremblingly confessed their crimes and withdrew, and another little girl came back to change the tea.

"What are you doing without thinking?" Cheng Guogong was a little angry when he saw Cheng Ping'an's attitude, and couldn't help scolding him a few words: "Where did you get angry? No one will get angry with your family members." what."

"Master." Mrs. Zhou was unhappy, glared at Cheng Guogong, and looked at Cheng Pingan with a smile: "What's wrong with my son?"

Cheng Pingan took a sip of tea to suppress his anger and said in a deep voice: "Today I went to congratulate that Cheng Huaijin. Instead of helping me, instead accusing me of being wrong, and telling so many guests that our Chengguo mansion is not a good place to go, saying that our family takes concubines as wives, murders the first wife, poisons the parents and children... In short, those words are ugly. "

When he said this, Cheng Guogong's face also pulled down, Zhou's brows were raised a few times, and he said sharply: "Sure enough, he was born by that bitch, like a bitch, he dares to say such things, there is still something in his eyes." Without you as a father, do you still think that An is his elder brother? There is no father and no brother, sir, even if this kind of people don't recognize it."

Speaking of which, the Zhou family is not at all happy to ask Cheng Guo to recognize Cheng Huaijin, no matter how you say it, Cheng Huaijin was born to the first wife of Cheng Guogong's wife, a decent son, whether it is according to national laws or family rules Well, if Cheng Huaijin is here, he should inherit the Duke of Cheng's mansion, so what can Cheng Pingan do in the future?

Mrs. Zhou didn't want her to calculate so much, and in the end she had to take advantage of Mrs. Song's son.

If it was usual, Duke Cheng would listen to what Zhou said, but today Duke Cheng did not listen to her words.

Cheng Guogong said with a gloomy face: "I'm afraid he misunderstood something. Don't be upset if you are safe. I will explain it to him after a while. It's fine if I can't say it."

Cheng Ping'an originally wanted Duke Cheng to hate Cheng Huaijin too, but he didn't know that Duke Cheng was so patient and didn't complain at all, he was discouraged for a while, and lowered his head and said: "Such a son, you If you want to admit it, you can admit it, after all, I don't recognize him as my brother."

After finishing speaking, Cheng Pingan left in a fit of anger, and the Zhou family also complained to Cheng Guogong, who said bitterly: "What do you know, a woman is a woman with long hair but short knowledge."

After finishing speaking, he went to see Lao Cheng, and repeated what Cheng Pingan said to Lao Cheng.

Duke Cheng lowered his head and thought for a long time before he sighed: "After all, we are not honest. When we saw the decline of Song's natal family, we were afraid that our family would be implicated. In addition, you wanted Zhou's entry wholeheartedly, so you locked up Song's family." At that time, how could he have expected that Huaijin was still alive and would be able to come back properly. Now, it is too late to regret it, but Huaijin is the blood and blood of our family. No matter what happens, we have to recognize our ancestors. Mother, but I'm afraid he doesn't have much affection for him, so let's treat him better in the future, maybe we can warm his heart."

Speaking of this, the old Cheng Guogong said to Cheng Guogong sincerely: "there are many good things left by our ancestors in the treasure house, which can't be bought with money, just for these treasures, We also have to slowly warm his heart."

Cheng Guogong bowed his head and listened, and after a while he said: "My son has written it down, but what should we do now?"

The old Cheng Guogong thought for a long time before saying: "You go and pick a few servants who are useful and send them to Huai Jin. They are married and have no reliable people. It is inevitable that there is some negligence. As elders, we have to think more about them. some."

Cheng Guogong understood it right away, and said with a smile: "Father still has an idea, and the son will do it now."

Cheng Guogong didn't say anything to the Zhou family when he went back. He chose a few servants on his own. Yesterday was the day when Cheng Huaijin got married. Just send someone over there.

The old Cheng Guogong thought for a while at home, and also thought that Cheng Huaijin probably wanted to return these servants, so he asked someone to wait for him to put on big clothes, and then went there in a soft sedan chair.

When he arrived at the door of Cheng's house, he saw that the servants sent by his family were all gathered at the door, hunched over their heads, frozen like monkeys.

On the other side, a tall and strong man was leading a dozen servants, and a dozen maids were standing. No matter whether they were servants or maids, these people seemed not afraid of the severe cold at all. Straight, it looks very imposing.

Old Cheng Guogong opened the sedan chair curtain and looked out for a few times, feeling suspicious in his heart, he didn't know what was going on with the other group of servants, so he wanted to ask someone to ask, when he heard the big man with him humming: " We came to see the little master, and brought a letter from the master."

The concierge stepped forward with a smile: "Wait a while, let's pass it on."

The big man waved his hands: "Hurry up and go, although we are not afraid of the cold, it is not a problem to be frozen at the door all the time."

Hearing this, the old Cheng Guogong asked his followers to ask where these people came from. It's okay if he doesn't ask here, but when he asked, the big man turned his head and looked at them, curled his lips, and showed a little expression Disdainful: "Where did it come from? Naturally, the master sent it to serve the little master and the new grandma. Where else could it have come from?"

The big man looked at the servants sent by Cheng Guogong's mansion, and said with contempt: "You are sent by Chengguo's mansion to serve the little master? Grandma, the Chengguo's mansion really has no good intentions. The ones you sent here are all What kind of tricks, you want to serve the little master like you soft bastards? It’s not a thing to have a monkey head poking around. Sure enough, the master is not a good thing, even the servants have changed. Not as good as pigs and dogs.”

When the old Cheng Guogong heard the ugly scolding by the big man, he shouted angrily in the sedan chair: "They are all dead, tell him to fart like this, go over and gag him personally."

Immediately, there were a few servants who thought they were strong from Cheng Guogong's mansion and wanted to take that man. The man smiled and hid to the side, then stretched out his hand and slapped the Cheng Guogong mansion aside. After a few steps, he walked up to Lao Cheng's sedan chair and lifted the curtain to take a look: "Sure enough, it belongs to the bastard tortoise. He will only get into this green shell and dare not show his head. Old man, grandpa will tell you today. The little master's idea is beyond your control."

Lao Cheng Guogong is already old, and he has been pampered all his life, and everyone respects him when he goes out. How could he have endured such humiliation? His face was purple and his heart was beating like a drum. He took a few breaths Before he could catch his breath, he fell softly into the sedan chair.

As soon as the people in the gatehouse saw something bad, some of them rushed in to report back.

While walking, Cheng Huaijin listened to the concierge talk about these things just now, and frowned after hearing this, and ordered a few words: "Move the old Cheng Guogong into the guest room, and then invite a doctor to treat him well. In addition, send someone to Cheng Guogong The government sent a letter."

When they got to the gate, they saw all the people in Cheng Guogong's mansion crying around the sedan chair, a thick and strong man saw Cheng Huaijin and immediately went over to greet him: "Little master, I can see you."

Cheng Huaijin patted the big man aside with a palm: "Ruan San, stand aside and settle accounts with you later."

After training the big man, Cheng Huaijin immediately directed the crowd to carry the old Duke Cheng into the guest room, and asked for a doctor and delivered medicine. In one breath, there is also time to turn around and take care of Ruan San.
