But She’s So Charming - Chapter 55

Cheng Yu put the two signs “Wu” and “Yu” in one place, and turned them to the back together, and the four words Jixiangruyi immediately went right together.

“This thick rhinoceros was given by Emperor Xiandi himself after grandfather’s victory in Chongqing.” Cheng Yu said with a trembling throat.

He didn’t expect that the object he had not found for so long was actually in His Highness’s hands.

Cheng Yu couldn’t hide his joy. You know, he went from north to south, from Suzhou to Huizhou and then to Huizhou in order to find the grandmother and the Taoist priest. But every time he found clues, he was cut off at the end. NS.

In order to maintain the stability of the imperial power, Dayan has always said that it is a “flowing official”. A local official will be seconded to another place after three years of service, and there will be few short-term corrections.

Even if he wanted to use the status of the son of Cheng Guo to suppress others, it was very rare.

Moreover, the place is not comparable to the capital. As long as there is silver, there are many ways to tamper with Hu Tie. Even, just the identity of the Taoist priest, he found three!

The last news that Cheng Yu got was: Possession Wang had passed away a long time ago; Daoshi Liu had flown to Jiuzhongtian.

Shit Jiuzhongtian, after hearing these words, Cheng Yu was so angry that he gritted his teeth.

But phosgene is useless. For this reason, he traveled all over the yamen of the county government. But in the end, he knew how terrible the collusion between officials and officials was.

They greeted him with a smile and respectfulness all day long, but there was no truth in their mouths.

After coming in, he was worried about how he could bring his concubine back to Cheng’s house in a fair manner. He didn’t expect to get this birthday card today.

You know, the old lady of Tang Wu’s identity is definitely not happy. For the reputation of the Cheng family, and the sister in the second and third bedroom, if there is no absolute evidence, the old lady is afraid that she will push the matter down.

King Ying looked at these two signs, his face completely changed, and his voice was hoarse immediately: “Ruochen, you say it again.”

“His Royal Highness, Ruochen also has a younger sister who died young. Her name is Cheng Yu.”

…

——

“Wang Hao, the prince was called into the study by His Highness, and it has been more than two hours since he went in.” Peer said.

Anruer shook her hand and accidentally put the wrong ingredients in the incense that was being tuned in her hand, “His Royal Highness…but what did you find?”

“The slave and maid really don’t know what’s going on inside.” Peer said.

“No, about Brother Yu, you must never make mistakes again and again. When the old lady passes her birthday, I will speak with the old lady alone. If you wait for your highness to know, this is definitely not a joke.” Cheng Yu and His Royal Highness were alone together, and Anru’er’s heart couldn’t stop panicking.

In the evening, after Cheng Yu left, Anru’er went to Sui’antang again.

Manager Cao went inside to report. King Ying paused for a long time, his eyes were dark and unclear, and he said coldly: “Go and tell her that the king will go with her at the birthday banquet of the old lady.”

General Cao closed the door, bowed to Anru’er and repeated King Ying’s words.

As soon as the voice came to the ground, Anruer was happy.

As soon as the front foot returned to the Moon Hall, she rewarded all the people in the courtyard on the back foot.

——

By the beginning of next month, the gifts at the gate of Chengguo Gong’s Mansion were already piled up, not to mention the countless array of jewellery tonics, just this jade Guanyin received three statues.

It is said that the 60-year-old has reached the sixtieth year, and it should be done, but the old lady did not know where she heard such a sentence, saying that the birthday of the elderly should not be big. It’s no different to remind Lord Yan to come and receive people.

After hearing this, Mrs. Cheng told her that “just hold a family dinner, keep everything simple” before Cheng Yanzhi started to talk about it.

——

On that day, the birthday banquet was held in Mrs. Cheng’s Fushou Hall.

As soon as Cheng Yanzhi and Lin Fu entered the door, they saw the old lady sitting in the seat holding Cheng Xi’s hand with a smile, “Sister Xi’s writing is really better than grandmother!”

There are three rooms in the Chengguo Gongfu, and this Cheng Xi is the eldest daughter of Yang from the second room of the Cheng family. Since the old lady only gave birth to three sons in her entire life, she didn’t have a girl, so she loved her daughter’s house very much.

Upon hearing this, Cheng Xi blushed and said: “My ancestors love me, and I know it in my heart, but my ancestors… can’t make fun of Xixi just because I’m in a good mood today!”

When Mrs. Cheng heard this, she couldn’t help giggling, and then she held her in her arms and sighed: “My sister Xi is now at the age to talk to her. It seems that my old lady is in the end. It’s the old man.” Older people seem to sigh like this every birthday.

In their eyes, only by watching the children grow up one by one can they know how quickly the years pass.

“Grandma is not old!” Cheng Yu, who had just stepped into the door, said this.

When the old lady saw her good grandson coming, her eyes narrowed into a line with a smile, and she immediately waved: “You stinky boy, how many days have grandma haven’t seen you, come here!”

Cheng Yu leaned over, first took the old lady Cheng’s hand and brought her a string of Buddhist beads, and then sent a lot of ginseng and deer antler.

Cheng Yu smiled and said: “Grandma, this string of Buddhist beads was requested by the grandson at Longhua Temple at this time last year. Zen Master Baosheng saw that his grandson was sincere, but he took it to recite the Buddhist scriptures for a whole year!” Zen Master Baosheng was in Beijing. Everyone knows his status, and it is much more precious than those jade Guanyin that he can get the things he carries with him.

After speaking, Cheng Yu bowed a big gift to the old lady: “Ruochen wishes grandmother a good life and good health.”

Or say that Cheng Yu is the heart of the old woman. Actually, at the age of Mrs. Cheng, she has already seen everything. She has a mission, and the yard is full of gold and silver jewelry. Sun Chenghuan, the third house of the Cheng family, is under the knees. , If you say she really wants something in her heart.

It should be hoped that these days of family happiness can be longer and longer.

Therefore, Cheng Yu’s string of Buddhist beads was really sent to her heart.

The old lady scolded Cheng Yu with a smile, while pulling him to refuse to let go. This is the so-called true portrayal of saying no, but the body is very honest.

After a while, the Yang family from the second room of the Cheng family and Li family from the third room of the Cheng family arrived.

Li’s family is a scholarly family, and it is clear from generation to generation. He is also very kind and has a very good relationship with Lin Fu.

But compared to the Li family, the relationship between the Yang family and Lin Fu in the second room is obviously farther apart.

The Yang family’s father is General Yang Zhen, and one of the most powerful generals around Xian Diye. Yang’s family is the only daughter. Since childhood, he had to wind and rain or rain. In the general’s mansion, he has never been subjugated. . But it was the second time for a woman to marry a woman. She didn’t expect that after she married into the Guogong Mansion, she would taste the sourness that everything was not as good as a human being.

Although she knew at the moment of marrying that Xijue was deserved by the eldest son, but every time she heard the eldest lady calling Lin Fu and the eldest son Huanyu, she still couldn’t bear it in her heart. Stay sour.

But there was only one title in Chengguo’s palace, and only one for the elder son. Yang knew that no matter how much they paid for the second room, that was the end result.

But this matter, Yang’s was sore for a while when Cheng Yanzhi attacked the Jue, and the reason that really prevented her from getting along with Lin Fu was another reason.

Although the sons of their Cheng family respect the eldest lady in the room, and can’t do anything to spoil their wives, in the end, they all have concubine rooms. There are three in the second room and one in the third room. There is only Lin Fu’s backyard, not one.

When Cheng Maozhi first started accepting a concubine, the Yang cried to Lin Fu because he couldn’t accept it in his heart. Although Lin Fu also persuaded him a few words, he couldn’t tell what Yang was in his heart.

To be straightforward, no matter how Lin Fu persuaded him, Yang felt that she couldn’t empathize with her.

After that, every time the Yang family saw Lin Fu, he would sigh in his heart that it was really a good fate. After so many years, she gave birth to Cheng Yu with a child, and even let Cheng Guogong be infatuated with her for ten years.

After all, she has been virtuous for half of her life, and she took the initiative to give Cheng Maozhi her dowry maid to be her aunt. In the end, it was not as useful as having a good face.

It is said that Israel’s servants are the most inferior, and sooner or later they will fade and relax, but in Yang’s view, if she can change her face with Lin Fu, she is also willing to let her live less than ten years.

But fortunately, the Yang family is not a messy person. Even if he can’t get along, he still regards Lin Fu as a family, just because there are fewer private contacts.

Usually there are no big days, and she basically doesn’t meet Lin Fu.

After Yang met the old lady, he held his youngest son, Brother Yun, and sat next to Lin Fu.

Lin Fu smiled and stroked Yun’s chin, and then said: “This brother Yun and the second brother are really carved out of the same mold.”

As soon as he mentioned the child, Yang temporarily put aside the thoughts that he could not understand Lin Fu, and began to talk about it. She sternly said: “Sister-in-law, I don’t know, Brother Yun, this child is really hateful now. The first two Sun actually climbed up in the house, opened the box silently, and tore me a title deed!”

While talking, Yang glared at Brother Yun again, “If you make such a mistake again, it will be useless for your father to intercede with you next time.”

When Brother Yun heard this, he was so scared that he fell directly into Lin Fu’s arms, and shouted in his throat, “Auntie, help, my mother is a tigress!”

Lin Fu couldn’t help but laughed when he heard it.

Yang squeezed his ears, “You splash monkey, why don’t you know how to learn from your elder brother!” To be honest, although she is sour and fateful, she still admires Cheng Yu very much. She is young. There is the wind of the general, as if seeing him, you can see the future rise and fall of the Cheng family.

With such a son in the Cheng family, he will surely have an enduring favor and a bright future.

“Second sister, you are really too anxious. When Brother Yu was so old, he took all my powders out to play, wiped a bedding, and dared to be silly at me. At that time, I was young and very angry. Hit him on the ass. But now I think about it, this is how they are ignorant, this is obviously the confusion of our mothers, the child is so small, they will naturally forget all these things when they grow up, if I change now, I With such a baby, he will definitely let him make trouble, otherwise, after seeing their backs, I should regret it.” Lin Fu said while patted Brother Yun’s back.

It is said that the heart of a mother will be soft. When Lin Fu said this, Yang’s eyes were red. She instantly thought of Lin Fu’s miscarriage a while ago, but a strange feeling rose in her heart. taste.

“Sister-in-law, my mother knows a master of gynecology, if you still want to have another child, otherwise I will find a chance to let her come and see?” Yang Shi covered his mouth with his hand, lying next to Lin Fu’s ear.

Lin Fu took her hand and smiled at her: “I can’t give birth to this body, or my younger sister will give birth to a few more, then I will go to my younger sister to hold the baby and play.”

Lin Fu’s voice is soft, and what he says is soft and affectionate. At this moment, Yang seems to understand the mind of Cheng Guogong. How can such a beautiful woman not be pitiful?

Yang coughed slightly.

When she saw King Ying and Anru’er walking slowly by the door, she quickly said: “Sister-in-law, Your Royal Highness Ying and Ru’er are here together.”

Lin Fu turned back in response.

Anruer wears extraordinarily plain clothes today. Even the hairpins are decorated with gold and jade beads are used. Strangely enough, when King Ying was away, Anru’er always dressed herself very beautifully, for fear that others would look down on her.

But as long as King Ying is willing to stand with her, she no longer needs those luxurious decorations. After all, a favored princess Ying would not be looked down upon even if she was dressed in plain clothes.

When King Ying arrived, everyone in the room stood up, even the old lady.

King Ying stepped forward and asked Mrs. Cheng to waive the gift, then took out the birthday gift and said a congratulatory message.

As a result, Mrs. Cheng’s expression on Anru’er changed a bit. Since Anru’s cares about her at Cheng’s house, Mrs. Cheng has somewhat disliked her. After all, the position of Princess Ying, she was. Keep it for Sister Xi.

But once today is over, it is bound to change.

Although the old lady yelled at everything to keep things simple, in her heart she was still such a person who paid attention to ostentation.

In this family banquet, King Ying came to celebrate her birthday, which was to put light on her forehead.

After the greeting, they all sat down with each other.

At this time, the female envoys of Sanfang suddenly got busy. They said that Sanye had recently gone out and couldn’t come back. He specially sent someone to give away a variety of rare fruits. Among them, the lychees were packed full of lychees. A large holding box.

The old lady laughed and said, “The third child is used to making these strange things. Come on, Lin Lang, divide these fruits directly into plates and put them on the table.”

Anruer and King Ying sat on Lin Xiu’s left side. While they were talking, Lin Xiu whispered in Anru’s ear: “I don’t care how you fight for favor, but you must not harm Brother Yu. That is your example. younger brother!”

Anruer’s face was pale, and she pretended to be calm and said: “Mother, what are you talking about!”

“It’s good if you understand.” Lin Xiu said.

When it was almost time to eat, Cheng Yu stood up suddenly, “Grandma, my grandson specially invited a troupe from outside to celebrate my grandmother’s birthday! It’s the Hongtang song that grandma loves to listen to.”

The old lady smiled happily, and said quickly: “Then please come in soon.”

Just as Cheng Yugang stepped out of the yard to order his servants, a tender pink purse suddenly fell from his body.

This color, at first glance, belongs to the daughter’s family.

The old lady was taken aback, seeing that Cheng Yu hadn’t noticed yet, she hurriedly called Lin Lang to pick up the purse back.

The man carries the woman’s purse, which is self-evident.

Mrs. Cheng held her purse in her hand, stretched her neck back, and looked at it over and over until she finally saw the little Tang Wu embroidered on the side of the orchid.

The old lady broke her fingers and thought, “The Li family, the Liu family, the Wang family, the British public family, the Wu’an Hou family, and no one has the surname Tang.”

Taking advantage of Cheng Yu’s effort to go out, the old lady said to Lin Fu: “Lin, do you know any family in the capital with the surname Tang? Also, have you ever paid attention to this brother Yu’s thoughts?”

Lin Fu naturally saw the purse that Cheng Yu dropped on the ground just now.

She smiled and replied, “Is my daughter’s name embroidered on it?”

“Yes.” The old lady nodded.

Lin Fu smiled and said, “When he came back at that moment, the old lady asked him personally that his daughter-in-law was concealed to death by him, I’m afraid she didn’t know anything.”

King Ying took a sip of tea calmly.

Anru’s heart touched her throat.

Brother Yu, are you crazy?
