Greetings, Ninth Uncle

Chapter 62: back door

Views:

Today is the day when Cheng Yumo returned home for three days. Cheng Yujin changed a new set of jewelry and replaced the original ruby head and face with light blue. This set was made by Linlang Pavilion by herself. The silver pattern is simple and elegant, and it is inlaid with blue and watery gems. This set of head and face is similar in style. They are all made of silver fused into hairpin rings and sapphire at key positions. There are not many decorations, but they look radiant and embellished in the hair, making them more beautiful and elegant, like water.

Cheng Yujin looked at her hair repeatedly in the mirror, and when she was finally satisfied, she took out a pair of blue jade ear clangs in the shape of water droplets and hung them on her earlobes. After finishing this outfit, Cheng Yujin was full of four hairpins and a pair of earrings, but she looked light and bright. The lustrous ear dangling fell on the side of her face, and the inch of her skin was as fair as jade, her neck was slender and her chin was delicate.

Her whole person is different from luxury, another kind of elegant and fresh beauty.

Cheng Yujin was very satisfied with this effect. This set of jewelry was specially made for herself by Cheng Yujin. She is now filial and can't use too bright and gorgeous jewelry. However, gorgeous has gorgeous beauty, plain and plain beauty. There are no bright colors, and the complicated carving patterns can bring out the fineness of the gemstones.

Cheng Yujin went to Shou'an Tang wearing a dress that seemed to be casual but was meticulously crafted everywhere. At this moment, in Madam Cheng's house, the Cheng family was rarely gathered together. Mrs. Ruan had been waiting here for a long time. She looked out from time to time in the morning. She thought it was Cheng Yumo who came back if there was a slight disturbance. Qingfu County Master couldn't feel the anxiety of Ruan's married daughter, but because she had to come and wait because of her affection, she lacked interest, and asked the nurse to carry Cheng Enbao over and tease her son with a handkerchief.

Cheng Yujin came in and greeted Mrs. Cheng, Princess Qingfu, and Mrs Ruan in turn, and then stood aside and waited.

The Cheng family and the Huo family attach great importance to the formal etiquette when returning home. Halfway through the hour, the servants ran in and announced cheerfully, "Old Madam, Madam, the second aunt's carriage has come in."

The female family members all raised their eyebrows, and Ruan Shi even had tears in her eyes and stood up with a squeak, wishing she could go to the second gate to pick up Cheng Yumo in person. After being reminded by the maid, Mrs Ruan reluctantly sat back to her original position, leaning her neck and looking out.

After a while, Cheng Yumo came in under the guidance of the maid. She lifted the curtain and came in, and when she saw everyone in the Cheng family, her eyes reddened immediately: "Mother, grandmother."

Nguyen was tearful at her mother's cry, and couldn't hold it any longer. She stepped forward to hold Cheng Yumo's hand, and carefully checked whether Cheng Yumo had lost weight or felt wronged.

Ruan shed tears and said, "Why are you so thin, Mo'er? Did you sleep well at Huo's house, and are you still used to eating? Is it because the people you brought over were not able to serve you well?"

In fact, it was only two days of hard work, how could she lose weight, but Ruan Shi was eager for her daughter, but she felt that she was not at ease. Qingfu County Lord held his son's chubby hand, turned his face away and snorted lightly. Cheng Yujin stood aside, quietly watching Ruan Shi and Cheng Yumo's mother-daughter relationship.

Sure enough, no matter how good the mouth is, people's performance can't deceive people. Nguyen always said that she treated her equally, but it was a pity that Cheng Yujin was taken away and could not get close to her, but in fact, to love the second daughter more is to love the second daughter more, just by looking at her performance at the moment.

Ruan's wholeheartedly surrounded her little daughter, and the maid reminded her with a smile: "Second madam, it is a good thing for the second aunt to return home to visit relatives. The old lady and the eldest lady are still waiting. Why are you crying with joy?"

"Yeah, it's a good thing to go back to the door, look at how useless I am." Ruan Shi smiled and wiped away her tears, and when she looked back, she saw Cheng Yujin smiling and standing aside with her hands tied, she was suddenly embarrassed.

Cheng Yujin smiled and nodded to Ruan Shi and Cheng Yumo: "Second aunt, second sister."

Cheng Yumo only saw Cheng Yujin. Today, she and Cheng Yujin have completely switched roles. This time, she returned to her parents' home in red, while Cheng Yujin wore plain clothes and a low bun, and followed her elders to wait for her to return to Ning.

Cheng Yumo had thought about this scene many times before. When Cheng Yujin returned to Ning in her previous life, her face was still ill and her face was ashamed. Cheng Yujin tasted the feeling of sadness and loss.

Cheng Yumo thought about it so many times, but when he saw it for real, it was Cheng Yumo who was uncomfortable.

Cheng Yujin didn't look sick at all. She was wearing a white jacket with a collar and a blue horse-faced skirt. She didn't have many hairpins, but each one was just right. From a distance, you could tell whether it was worth anything. Philip. Except for the watery earrings around her ears, she has no other embellishments. Although such a suit is not gorgeous, it cannot be said that it is not expensive.

Introverted precious and delicate, even more prohibitive.

Cheng Yujin standing there, reminds people of the sky when the clouds gather and rain, and the lake when Lin Shen sees the deer, gentle and beautiful. Although Cheng Yumo was dressed in bright red, she basically hadn't slept much in the past few days. When she woke up early in the morning, her qi and blood were insufficient, and her eyes were dark. Well, like a child stealing adult clothes.

No woman would care about this, especially since the person in front of her was her sister, her husband's former wife, Cheng Yumo's heart was even more subtle.

The newlywed life is roughly the same as Cheng Yumo imagined, but it is a little different. The bride entered the door, it seemed to be more difficult than her previous life.

Cheng Yumo thought of Cheng Yujin's return to the door in his previous life. At that time, Cheng Yujin's face was white and flushed, and he was in high spirits. He could not see the slightest tiredness. Cheng Yumo felt that the life of the Huo family must be very good, and Cheng Yujin took her chance to go. Enjoy. But this time when it was replaced by herself, Cheng Yumo discovered that the process of changing from a girl to a woman, from a daughter to a daughter-in-law, was not pleasant, and the gap was especially huge.

Why can't Cheng Yujin see it in the past life? Does Huo Xue's treat her differently from Cheng Yujin? Cheng Yumo refused to admit this, she quickly comforted herself, it must be because Cheng Yujin brought many capable dowry maids, and the dowry was also generous, so the people of the Huo family did not dare to cause trouble. If Cheng Yumo had a mother-in-law, she would be so confident.

Under the guidance of the maid, Cheng Yumo sat down to Mrs. Cheng's head. From entering the door to being seated, Cheng Yumo had already felt the difference between a married daughter and a daughter. The Marquis of Yichun treated her as a guest, and no longer regarded her as a second girl.

Because Cheng Yumo came in, the female relatives stood up and rearranged the seats and sat down again. Madam Cheng closed her eyes and routinely asked Cheng Yumo about her coming to her in-law's house. It was nothing more than whether she ate well, slept well, how her uncle treated her, and so on.

Cheng Yumo answered one by one, and the answers were quite satisfactory. In front of so many people, Cheng Yumo certainly couldn't say that the Huo family was bad. Even if there is any grievance, Cheng Yumo and Ruan Shi will complain when they are alone after they have screened the crowd.

Mrs. Cheng was obviously satisfied when she heard such an answer. With Mrs. Cheng's beginning, others followed you and asked Cheng Yumo's daily life. The female family greeted each other for a while in the house. When Mrs. Cheng saw that it was almost time, she said: "Go outside and call the uncle, the uncle will bring the second aunt back to the door early in the morning. How much can you use for breakfast? Come in and have lunch before talking. ."

The maids bowed their heads. After a while, messy footsteps came from outside the courtyard, mixed with the voice of a man talking, Cheng Yuanxian and the others came in.

Huo Chang Yuan also followed everyone and entered Old Madam Cheng's main room.

As soon as the men came in, many stood up to say hello, and then Nguyen Nguyen and County Master Qingfu went to their husbands each and greeted each other. Cheng Yumo's identity change was obvious at this moment. In the past, she only needed to stand up to say hello, but today, after greeting her father, uncle and uncle, she walked quickly to Huo Changyuan and whispered, "Master Hou, you coming."

The elders laughed when they heard it, but Cheng Yumo was embarrassed by the laughter, and quickly buried her head. These people were all familiar to Huo Chang Yuan, but Huo Chang Yuan felt uncomfortable at the moment. He turned around and saw that Cheng Yujin was also standing at the door of the Warm Pavilion, staring at them with a smile.

It's like a gentle sister watching her sister get married.

Huo Chang Yuan's sense of weirdness became even heavier, especially when he saw Cheng Yuanxian. Huo Chang Yuan saw some pictures intermittently on the wedding day. He didn't know whether these pictures were true or not, but he vaguely knew that Cheng Yuanxian was his husband, but now he has become an ordinary uncle. Huo Chang Yuan felt split every time he saw it.

It was a great gift to return home today. In addition to the second-bedroom family, several other boys from the Cheng family also gathered in the house. The table would not be ready for a while, so they sat in the upper room and talked at will. Although it is said to be casual, in fact, the camp is clear, Mrs. Cheng is the center of the topic, and the children and grandchildren are all around her to make fun. Cheng Yuanhan and Huo Changyuan sat in one place, and there was a spectrum of Taishan everywhere, while Ruan Shi and Cheng Yumo also snuggled up next to the Weng son-in-law, and occasionally interjected warmly.

Cheng Yuanxian was disgusted when he saw Cheng Yuanhan's demeanor, what did he want to show off, he just found a son-in-law of a high-ranking official, look at this face that he wanted to show the whole world, pretentious! Cheng Yuanxian was unhappy, and Qingfu County Master obviously didn't want to see Ruan's complacent appearance. The couple changed places together and asked the nurse to carry Cheng Enbao over to tease his son.

In this way, it was especially embarrassing for the remaining few people. Cheng Yujin didn't want to see the happy appearance of the two families in the big room and the second room, so she had to sneak out quietly and talk to Cheng Yuanjing. There was no way, Cheng Yujin was adopted and had an awkward position, while Cheng Yuanjing came back halfway, and it wasn't much better. I don't usually see it, but when it comes to this family reunion occasion, both of them are left behind.

Cheng Yujin sat down opposite Cheng Yuanjing and said, "Ninth uncle."

"Um."

"I've finished reading the set of essays you borrowed from me, but I don't understand some things."

Cheng Yuanjing said: "It's natural. The anthology was compiled by Zhaoming. It's a long time ago. People who take scientific examinations may not understand it. It's normal for you to not understand. What are the things you don't understand?"

Cheng Yujin proposed one by one, Cheng Yuanjing nodded after listening, and explained it casually. Cheng Yujin listened intently, asking questions from time to time. As the two asked and answered, no one cared about the outside world, not even Huo Chang Yuan who looked back frequently and didn't notice.

Maybe it's not that I didn't notice it, it's that I didn't want to pay attention. After a while, Huo Chang Yuan couldn't hold back his breath. Taking advantage of Cheng Yuanxian being called by Mrs. Cheng to speak, he turned aside Cheng Yumo and walked towards Cheng Yuanjing and Cheng Yujin.

As he approached, the two stopped talking as if they had eyes behind their backs. Huo Chang Yuan looked at the two people's tacit understanding, and felt even more inexplicable in his heart.

He took a deep breath and asked, as if unintentional, "What are you talking about, why are you talking so fascinated? Everyone is talking inside, why are you sitting outside chatting alone?"

Cheng Yujin didn't want to talk to Huo Changyuan, as if there was some kind of feeling, Cheng Yuanjing answered naturally: "It's a little hot inside, so I'll take Yujin outside to find peace."

Cheng Yuanjing called her "Yu Jin" so naturally, Huo Chang Yuan felt unhappy. Women's boudoir names cannot be revealed to others at will, and only fathers, brothers and husbands-in-law can know women's names among men. Of course, this situation is not absolute, but all along, only Huo Chang Yuan can directly address Cheng Yujin by name. In his heart, he still regards this item as his own, and now Huo Chang Yuan is instinctively displeased when he hears that Cheng Yuanjing has seized his power.

"Yu Jin's body is cold, she is most afraid of getting cold, but Jing Xing himself is too hot, how can he bring her out?"

After Huo Chang Yuan finished speaking, the compartment was quiet, Cheng Yujin had been enduring it all the time, but now she couldn't bear it anymore. Huo Chang Yuan was too irresponsible. He was the one who said he had broken off the marriage. After breaking off the marriage, he was the one who left his new wife and came to talk to her. This kind of person, if he doesn't hate him, he doesn't know that the sky is high.

Cheng Yujin put down the tea cup, raised her head and smiled at Huo Changyuan: "Thank you, Lord Huo, for your concern, but I came here to find the ninth uncle, and I can't blame the ninth uncle. Besides, I know my own body, and I don't like what Lord Huo said. That's an exaggeration. In my own home, I don't catch a cold."

Seeing Cheng Yujin speak for Cheng Yuanjing as soon as he opened his mouth, Huo Changyuan's face became even darker. However, Cheng Yujin didn't bother to pay attention to his cold face, Cheng Yujin paused, and said very casually and lightly: "By the way, I forgot again just now that Lord Huo has already married the second sister, and it is too unfamiliar to call him Lord Hou. "

Huo Changyuan's face turned warm, and he was about to say "You can call me by my name" when he heard Cheng Yujin say with a smile, "Since you have entered a house, it is a family, and there is no need to be too outlandish to call Shangwei. Lord Huo, who follows second sister's seniority, call me sister. Lord Huo shouldn't mind, right?"
