Greetings, Ninth Uncle

Hearing this sentence, Cheng Yujin only slightly paused, and then walked into the hall without hesitation.

The maid stood outside the screen and reported: "Old lady, the big girl is here."

Ruan's face suddenly became stiff as he heard Cheng Yujin's name. In the past few days, Hou's house is busy with the funeral of Old Hou Ye, and people are turning around everywhere. But no matter how busy he was, Mrs. Cheng and the master of Qingfu County were tightly clinging to everything, and nothing could be missed by Ruan Shi. Ruan did nothing, so he couldn't help worrying about his daughter's marriage. To ask her to say that Grandpa Cheng's death, the big house divided a large sum of money, and the money earned was full, and the only one who was hurt was her little girl, Mo'er.

Ruan had been thinking about it for several days, for fear that Cheng Yumo was late to marry someone and was taken advantage of by other women. Today, Ruan finally found the opportunity to tell Mrs. Cheng this matter. She just finished speaking. Mrs. Cheng murmured silently, and heard Cheng Yujin coming, and both of them stopped.

Cheng Yujin pretended not to hear anything, and walked into the house with a smile as usual, and generously saluted the two of them: "Yu Jin pleased her grandmother and her second aunt. There was a wind last night, and there was a lot of noise in the middle of the night Isn't your grandmother cold? "

Mrs. Cheng's face was pale, saying: "I'm fine. I don't like greed when I'm older. You juniors should pay attention. Don't sleep with the window open at night. Be sure to let the maid check."

"Granddaughter understands, Xie grandmother reminds." Cheng Yujin smiled and answered. Her expression was too frank, and she had nothing to say about the banquet. Cheng Yujin did this, but made Mrs. Cheng and Ruan Shi uncomfortable.

Ruan Shi saw Mrs. Cheng and Cheng Yujin coming and going to talk politely with her, just as Zuzi Sun Xiao looked, she couldn't help being anxious. Mrs. Cheng and Cheng Yujin didn't care how she behaved, but Mo Er's affairs could not be delayed any longer. Re-filial piety must be married in the daytime, and now it's halfway through. Now it's hard to get started. If you don't settle down, Cheng Yumo will have to wait for a year.

Ruan Shi was anxious and couldn't help interrupting Mrs. Cheng's words: "Mother, look at what I just said ..."

Mrs. Cheng glared at Ruan Shi secretly, despising her lack of eyesight. Look at this airless look, not on the table at all.

Cheng Yujin smiled in her heart. She looked as usual and deliberately said, "It turned out that I interrupted the second aunt. It was me who was wrong. Yujin here punished the second aunt. The second aunt wanted to say anything, don't worry about me."

Ruan's Zhiwu gave birth to some guilt. She and Mrs. Cheng secretly discussed the matter of letting Cheng Yu Mo Rexiao get married, and Mrs. Cheng did not object. She only said that he would wait for the elder Hou to pass by after seven or seven. Mrs. Cheng ’s wife is loose, and Cheng Yumo ’s early marriage is basically fixed. However, although this matter has become a consensus, it has not been officially announced, that is, Cheng Yujin has not yet known.

Ruan did not know that Cheng Yujin had heard her talk with Cheng Yuanhan early in the morning, and Mrs. Cheng did not know that Cheng Min told Xu Zhixian about it, and it happened to be broken by Cheng Yujin. All in all, on the bright side, Cheng Yujin should not know about it.

Ruan has always been straightforward, but she is doing it for the sake of her daughter. There is no way to live, die, die, but is it important that the heirs of marriage are not important? The girl's family's flowering period is already short, and it is delayed for a year. I don't know how much to miss. If there is a concubine or eldest son during this time, it will be a major event that affects the woman's life.

So, what's wrong with her doing this? Ruan's has always believed, but at this moment, Ruan's lips flicked several times to Cheng Yujin's clear and clear eyes, unable to speak.

Cheng Yumo's early marriage is certainly not a problem for the second room, but what about Cheng Yujin in front of Cheng Yumo? As an elder sister, but was skipped by her sister, what should outsiders think of Cheng Yujin?

It is not that Ruan did not think about this problem, but every time this idea came to her head, she diverged casually. Ruan's mind is almost ridiculous to deceive people. Anyway, Cheng Yujin doesn't know yet, so don't think about it, and then there will be a way out.

However, Mrs. Cheng and Ruan knew that there would be no way. They want to win over Huo Changyuan, an infinitely promising Qianlong, and want Cheng Yumo to give birth to the eldest son of Jingyong Hou Mansion, they have to sacrifice Cheng Yujin. After all, Cheng Yujin was retired and his future was unknown. However, Jingyong Hou Mansion had tangible benefits, and it was entirely predictable who Mrs. Cheng would choose.

Cheng Yujin was not surprised at all, let alone sad, but she did not want to let go of the old lady and Ruan Shi easily. Stepping on the tragedy of a granddaughter's life-long tragedy and climbing the dragon and the phoenix, and delusion that the granddaughter has no complaints, continue to work hard and complain to the filial Cheng family, there is no such good thing in the world. Cheng Yujin smiled and asked softly, "Second Aunt, how did you start to stay? What did you say to your grandmother just now? Are there outsiders? Just continue talking and I won't bother."

Sure enough, Cheng Yujin's words fell, and Ruan's eyes dodged even more, and he was too embarrassed to look at Cheng Yujin. Cheng Yujin gave a hum, looked back at Mrs. Cheng and Ruan Shi, strangely said: "Grandmother, second aunt, what's wrong with you? Could it be that I can't listen to what you said?"

Ruan was so guilty that he could not speak, and his palms and hands were all flesh. Cheng Yujin was also the daughter of her birth. Although they did not grow up beside her in recent years, after all, she was born in October after she was pregnant. How could she not care? Ruan's is also distressed by Cheng Yujin, but Ruan's can do anything. Mo Er has been weak since childhood. For all these years, good things have to be given to Cheng Yujin. Does it mean that even marriage should be sacrificed for Cheng Yujin? Cheng Yujin was retired, not by Mo Er.

Finally, Mrs. Cheng sighed and said, "Well, till now, it is cruel to continue to hide her. The second son, tell me what you said to me before."

When Ruan heard that Mrs. Cheng was not a thing, Mrs. Cheng wanted to settle down on both sides, and let Ruan be the villain! In any case, Mrs. Cheng is a kind and grandmother. In case Cheng Yujin can talk about good family affairs in the future, Mrs. Cheng can stand up and demand Cheng Yujin's respect.

Ruan's heart yelled, but she didn't dare to violate Mrs. Cheng, she could only smile stiffly and said, "It's not really a big deal ... Your sister is already settled. Seeing Lord Huo is not young, Mrs. Huo is anxious Holding the grandson, I want Mo Er to marry in advance. Although this is not compatible with the etiquette, Huo Xueshi is after all Mo Er's mother-in-law. If we don't give her face, I'm afraid she will make Mo Er difficult in the future. So I and you The grandmother discussed for a while, and wanted Moer to take advantage of his filial piety to get married. If your grandfather saw it, she would be safe on the road ... But we are only discussing, and there is no final conclusion on this matter ... "

Ruan added a few words in the end to hide his ears and steal the bell, but this way, the more she showed her guilty conscience. Cheng Yujin had long expected that when she heard these words, she couldn't make any ripples in her heart.

However, this does not prevent her from taking the opportunity to strike a stroke.

Cheng Yujin stared blankly at Ruan Shi. His beautiful eyes widened in surprise. Finally, he finally felt like he was reacting. His eyes suddenly covered with a layer of mist, and he blinked and pressed down. Cheng Yujin lowered his head so that people could not see clearly, but there was an unshakable tremor in his voice: "What does the second aunt mean? Do you want to marry your second sister first?"

Cheng Yujin has always been dignified and generous, suddenly showing his weakness, and Mrs. Cheng and Ruan were caught off guard. If Cheng Yumo cries, Mrs. Cheng will not feel pity, but this person is Cheng Yujin, and Mrs. Cheng, who is hard-hearted, rarely has some guilt.

After all, they are sorry Cheng Yujin who is their elders. It was originally Cheng Yujin's marriage, but in the end it was changed to Cheng Yumo. Now, for the success of Cheng Yumo's next half of life, Cheng Yujin is in a dilemma.

Speaking of which, Cheng Yujin's luck was really bad. Originally born auspicious twins, but was adopted after birth; Cardamom Nianhua rescued people on the snowy mountain, only after being engaged was informed that Huo Changyuan admitted the wrong person; He also received a commendation from the sage. Seeing that the situation is about to improve, Cheng Yujin may take advantage of this shareholder style and may find a husband-in-law.

Cheng Yumo could get married while he was hot, but Cheng Yujin must stay there for a year. People are so forgetful. One year later, the embroidered gold embroidered tools given by the emperor have been forgotten for a long time, but Cheng Yujin has been burdened with divorce, getting older, and the younger sister getting married before him , Easy to talk about.

Among them, there are many consequences that Mrs. Cheng contributed to.

Cheng Yujin still lowered her head. She refused to let others see her face, but her trembling shoulder could not deceive others. Mrs. Cheng sighed and said: "Sister, don't cry, your sister's affairs can't be delayed. You are an elder sister. Be considerate of them."

These words Cheng Yujin did not know how many times he listened since childhood. You are an older sister, so you have to let your brother and sister; you are an older sister, so the younger sister made a mistake, it is your dereliction of duty; As a matter of course, it is normal to care about the small ones in advance, you cannot be more truthful, otherwise you are ignorant.

Cheng Yujin said, OK, now she really doesn't care. She does not seldom pay attention to her parents or care about the love of her loved ones, but she wants more money and benefits.

Cheng Yujin stretched his hand and touched it in his sleeve, took out a lilac veil, and pressed it gently on both sides of his eyes to wipe the tears. Unexpectedly, there were more tears in this way. Cheng Yujin raised his face, and Mrs. Cheng and Ruan's only saw Cheng Yujin's eyes red, and the inside was full of water.

Mrs. Cheng and Ruan Shi were suddenly speechless. Cheng Yujin wiped tears more and more, and said sensibly: "I know, I am the elder sister after all, I want to let the younger siblings below. Anyway, this is my life, but the future of the second sister is just right, I At the expense of some, it ’s okay to complete the second sister ’s happy marriage. However, this is our own business, but after all, it ’s important to be young and orderly. The sister has n’t gotten married yet. In my opinion, it is better for me to twist my hair to become a monk and free up the way for my second sister so that outsiders can't say anything. "

Ruan Shi was startled and lost his voice: "What are you saying!"

Cheng Yujin said without a blink of an eye: "It seems that Second Aunt is dissatisfied? Also, if I become an aunt, I am afraid that others will be guessed whether they are being persecuted and have a bad reputation for Second Sister. Also, Second Sister is after all How can there be a sister of the ancient Lantern Buddha if you want to be Mrs. Hou? Then I have a grand dad who gave me a white damask. When the grandfather's seventy-seven passes, I will pick up a clean day and quietly end it without causing trouble to everyone. , So that the second aunt can feel free to send her sister to marry. "

Ruan's eyes heard tears of tears when his eyelashes moved. She covered her face with a veil and choked: "What are you talking about, this kid! You and Mo'er are the meat that fell from my body. When you were born, your body was weak. The doctor said that I might not be able to support it. I ca n’t wait to go for you. Seeing that you raised your sisters to the age of marriage, but you said something to yourself, how do you let me live? You ’re deliberately stabbing me in my heart! ”

Ruan Shi said that he almost screamed out at the end, and Cheng Yujin heard her knees, and she shed tears silently. She was wearing a white dress, her slender chin was almost whiter than her clothes, and she knelt on the ground with her sleeves stacked, making her more delicate and fragile, and shattered in a fold. Cheng Yujin's eyes were washed with water, and two lines of tears on the cheeks fell slowly, crystal clear, quiet and helpless.

Cheng Yujin is not as outgoing as Ruan, but her voice is deliberately suppressed, and it sounds more troubling when she listens: "What does that second aunt want me to do? I do n’t want to lose my hair, and you do n’t want me to die Willing, how will second aunt want me? "

Ruan covered his mouth with a veil, crying out of breath. Cheng Yujin knelt on the ground, his tears drowned, and no sound was made, but it was more distressing than Ruan's exhaustion. Mrs. Cheng was dumbfounded by the cry of the first and the youngest. She couldn't bear it anymore. She patted the table vigorously and said, "It's all right, don't cry."

Ruan's voice changed from strong to weak, and Cheng Yujin still knelt firmly on the ground, pressing his eyes with a veil from time to time, the output was stable, and the stamina was long. Mrs. Cheng sighed deeply and said, "Marrying is a happy event, why would you have to use one for the other? The second girl can't wait there, go out early, the eldest girl stays at home and filial piety, etc. After the period of filial piety, we will lively talk about pro-son-in-law. "

Cheng Yujin didn't want to eat her with an empty talk. Mrs. Cheng is pretty good now, but one year later, who knows whether she will recognize it or not. With tears in his eyes, Cheng Yujin asked, "Grandmother, it's a fact that I was retired, and it's a fact that my second sister got married before me. Even if the family has intentions for me, but one year later, people outside know how to tell me. Under such conditions, how should my family talk to me? Instead of embarrassing the elders, I would now be self-defeating, come quietly, and walk quietly, so as not to be talked about by others. "

"Speak!" Mrs. Cheng sneered with a sullen face. "Parents who suffer from body and skin, it is not easy to raise you at home. It's a big deal for the family to discuss. There is always a way to solve it. What does it look like to find death easily?"

Ruan was frightened by Mrs. Cheng's momentum and bowed his head, Nono said, "Yes, the mother's lesson is right."

After training, Mrs. Cheng calmed down again and said, "Your grandfather is in a hurry. Before he died, he specially prepared the dowry for your sisters. He would also like to see you marry an adult and get married. After all, I did n’t wait for this step. In my opinion, it ’s better to have your grandfather ’s last thoughts. He walked on the sickbed before his family, and outsiders did not know what to say, simply said that this was your grandfather ’s death, granddaughter. He grew up watching him, and in his heart was no different from his elder grandson, so he stayed at home to take care of filial piety, and the young granddaughter was so spoiled that she got married quickly and gave birth to a great-grandson as soon as possible to repay the elderly. "

Ruan's crying stopped unconsciously. Cheng Yujin was still satisfied with the statement. Her eyes dropped slightly and asked, "But, do you believe this statement?"

"Wait for your grandfather's seven or seven days, I personally tell the guests. Your grandfather's last words, I think it is reasonable, they don't believe in others, and they don't believe in me. I live so much age, this face is always there . "

Cheng Yujin got the quasi-letter and was finally satisfied. She no longer pressed her hand to her eyes, and her tears gradually stopped. Heaven and earth pro-junior teachers can only suppress men and women's ceremonies only by more powerful levels of suppression, such as filial piety, such as monarchs. Cheng Yujin's marriage with his sister will definitely be said by outsiders, and Cheng Yujin has not been low-key in recent years. Many people have been pressed by her, and they don't know how much resentment they hold. Once Cheng Yujin is in trouble, I don't know how many people will step on it. At that time, the situation could not be controlled, and how many unpleasant words might come out. Maybe some black-hearted people would spread blindly, saying that she had a hidden disease, and she would be remarried by Jingyong Houfu. The Yichun Houfu knew the inside story and gave up the plan to let Cheng Yujin marry, so he directly let the following sister get married.

At that time, Cheng Yujin was a hundred words, and it was hard to turn over. After all, there is such a thing as a hidden disease, how to prove it to others? And if it is not a hidden disease, why would the family give up by default?

But if it is replaced by order to keep filial piety, it will be completely different. The word of filial piety was pressed down. Marriage, funeral, marriage and marriage all had to lean back, and Cheng Yujin was still named by the old man Hou Cheng. Raised under the knees and treated like a grandson, this honor is no different. After the daughter-in-law kept the filial piety to her in-laws, she did not make it out of three. Even if she committed a seven-out rule, her husband could not give up easily. The eldest granddaughter observes filial piety according to the eldest grandson's system, which deserves great credit.

Since the ancient female dependents did not enter the ancestral hall, sacrifices and other things have been dominated by men for thousands of years, and there are few women. But Cheng Yujin was able to be one of them, and he was still a grandson. The eldest grandson is a heir, and has a higher position in the family lineage than his second son. Cheng Yujin's honor is so unique that even Cheng Min's daughter is not as good. By the time Shou Xiao ended, Cheng Yujin could throw away anybody who could not speak because of this credit alone. At that time, she can add another bargaining chip in the marriage market.

Cheng Yujin was very satisfied, even better than she originally expected, and Mrs. Cheng personally came forward and said that this is even better. With less effort and more joy, Cheng Yujin was extremely satisfied with today's gains.

Cheng Yujin stopped crying, and Du Ruo saw the opportunity and said, "Girl, the ground is cold, please hurry up and say, don't let down the old lady's kindness."

The other maids woke up like dreams and quickly came forward to help Cheng Yujin get up. Cheng Yujin stood on the ground half-pushed, and Mrs. Cheng saw Cheng Yujin's face was white, she couldn't bear it, and said, "Bring an embroidered pier for the elder girl and serve a cup of hot tea. The girl's family can't stand the cold, she kneels on the ground For so long, watch out for the cold. "

Cheng Yujin pretended to say a few words, and sat on the embroidered pier with the help of maid. Ruan's also cried for a long time, still standing aside at the moment. The makeup on Ruan's face was all washed up, and her eyes were red and swollen. She looked at Cheng Yujin, who was crying but still beautiful and elegant, and then she looked at herself, and she felt awkward without knowing why.

Ruan's heart said that she also cried for a long time, and she also couldn't stand the cold. Why did the old lady give Cheng Yujin a tea, but she didn't care?

Cheng Yujin lifted the cup and slowly drank the hot tea. Mrs. Cheng saw everyone's emotions calm down and said, "This matter is settled like this. I told everyone a few days later that I said this was the wish of the old Hou Ye, Keep the eldest girl down to keep filial piety and let the second girl go out to get married. The most important thing for the family is harmony. The family members have the same strength, twisted into a rope, and worked hard to avoid being bullied by outsiders. , We became scattered sand ourselves. "

Mrs. Cheng wanted to whitewash Taiping. Cheng Yujin nodded and said yes, just listen to the excitement. When Mrs. Cheng saw that her daughter-in-law and Cheng Yujin both showed up to be taught, she thought that her words were effective, so she continued with satisfaction: "Shou Xiao and getting married are settled. You will not be allowed to suspicion in the future. The old girl said Don't mention those words again. "

Cheng Yujin stood up and responded happily: "Yes. It was just the granddaughter who wanted to turn it off. Fortunately, the grandmother knew the truth and promptly contacted the granddaughter, otherwise the granddaughter would make a big mistake."

After speaking, Cheng Yujin turned to Ruan, and solemnly performed a guilt ceremony: "The niece was just stunned, and her words and deeds were wrong. Please ask your aunt to forgive your sins. I also hope that your aunt will not take those nonsense to heart.

Cheng Yujin was both guilty and punished, and she was told what she could say, but it seemed that Ruan was not as sensible as a little girl. Ruan accused him and said, "It's nothing. It was originally a family. If you know what you're saying, you'll be fine."

"My second aunt wouldn't blame me." After that, Cheng Yujin's voice and voice remained unchanged, and he flirted with a word. "It's just that there are some misunderstandings. The second aunt should not say it. My mother is the master of Qingfu County, father. It ’s Mr. Cheng ’s family. Although he has sympathy with the second sister, he ’s a cousin in the next room, and he ’s not a real child. I thank my second aunt for hurting me, but my parents have other people, such as a compatriot, Auntie II will stop talking in the future. "

Ruan's face stiffened, his throat choked, and he couldn't even speak. Of course she knew that Cheng Yujin was her biological daughter, and Qingfu was just a name, and everyone in the house knew it. Ruan has been claiming to be self-reliant for all these years, but Cheng Yujin said in front of her that his mother has other people, and Ruan is just aunt.

This seemed to stabb in Ruan's heart fiercely, even more than Cheng Yujin said to himself. Ruan's face was pale, but Mrs. Cheng was very satisfied with Cheng Yujin's understanding. She nodded appreciatively and said, "The eldest girl is right, and the second daughter-in-law just said the wrong thing in anxiety. You can't be so negligent in the future."

Ruan's lips twitched, and the last trace of blood on his face also disappeared.

Cheng Yujin, is this, don't you recognize her? She is obviously Cheng Yujin's biological mother!
