Girl, there's something wrong with you
Chapter 547: What unlucky words to say during the Chinese New Year?
After the party, everyone went out to watch the lights.
In order to meet the needs of fire protection, it is inconvenient for aristocratic families to set off a large number of fireworks and firecrackers in the clan area, so they use "lights" instead of "fireworks".
In order to prepare for the New Year's Eve lantern show, the Cheng family has been preparing internally for nearly a month. They not only put up various lanterns and festoons on pavilions, pavilions and cornices, but also placed nine-petal lotus flowers on rivers and ponds. Floating lights.
According to the rules in the aristocratic family circle, the lantern display of fifth-grade aristocratic families can be done casually. The famous families of fourth-grade are a little more particular. There are often water nets in the clan area, so this lotus floating lantern is needed to enhance the color.
In addition, all lanterns must be written with poems and lyrics, or anecdotes about famous people in the clan, to show the long history of their family.
As for the Third Grade Family, they even have to shoot a documentary every year to conduct grand education and publicity both internally and externally... Of course, that is too troublesome, and Cheng Jinyang doesn't really want to do it.
Anyway, since I am at the fourth level now, I will follow the rules of the fourth level. We’ll talk about the rest later.
There were not many famous people from the Cheng family in the divine capital, so they could only rely on poetry to fill in the gaps, which almost exhausted Cheng Yuexian's brain.
Fortunately, Jingkou Town now houses many refugees from the north, including many educated intellectuals, so we finally got it all done before New Year's Eve.
It's just that the poems written by northerners... mostly write about fighting and iron horses, and are too violent. If printed on the lanterns of the clan, it would give the impression that the Cheng family is all reckless. There is nothing we can do about it.
While everyone went out to enjoy the lanterns, Cheng Jinyang took refuge in the side hall to rest.
There is no other reason. It is not a banquet hall outside. Mother-in-laws can always create opportunities to be singled out, and then find themselves crazily promoting their own daughters to be their wives.
What can Cheng Jinyang say? If you agree to one, you will offend the other. No matter how you answer, it will be wrong.
It's better not to go out in the first place, lest you offend others later.
After resting in the side hall for a while, Cheng Jinyang guessed that everyone had left, so he quietly went out.
As a result, Qingqing was caught in the act by blocking the door.
"My mother wants to see you." Qingqing said with a smile.
"Ah, this..." Cheng Jinyang showed a helpless and resentful expression.
"Don't look at me like that." Qingqing smiled and took his arm. "My mother is not a man-eating beast. How about showing a pitiful and helpless expression?"
Your mother is naturally nice to you, but not necessarily to me... Cheng Jinyang cursed secretly.
Hey, wait a minute, Miss Qingqing is an adopted daughter. This mother is not actually her biological mother, so she won't be too entangled in her daughter's status, and should be more concerned about Chu's reputation and interests.
So he quietly relaxed again and followed Qingqing to another courtyard, where he saw his mother, Mrs. Xie, accompanied by several maids, cooking tea around the stove in the courtyard.
"Oh, the young lady and uncle are here!" The maids moved chairs for Qing Qing and Cheng Jinyang and came over to sit down.
"Come and try this new tea." Qingqing's mother, Xie, poured tea for the two of them with her own hands.
Cheng Jinyang quickly thanked him and took the teacup.
"Can you taste what kind of tea it is?" Xie asked with a smile.
Cheng Jinyang suddenly discovered that Miss Qingqing's ceremonial fake smile was exactly the same as that of his mother-in-law. It was a playful smile that seemed lively and lively, but seemed to have a deep meaning.
"The aftertaste is very sweet." Qingqing thought for a moment and said, "It should be Emei Baiya."
"That's right." Mr. Xie said, "Sichuan has become more and more chaotic recently, and the price of Sichuan tea has also skyrocketed. Nowadays, it is rarely seen on the market."
Cheng Jinyang heard that there seemed to be something in his mother-in-law's words, so he looked attentive.
No matter what, as long as they are not competing for the right wife, that's fine.
"Qingqing." After the two of them finished drinking tea, Xie suddenly asked, "How long has it been since you were sick?"
This question was so sudden that Qingqing didn't even think about how to answer it, so she could only laugh and say nothing to hide her embarrassment.
"Your father sent people to check last night." Xie continued to say with a smile, "Now Jingkou can still be self-sufficient in staple food, but almost all meat is shipped from Jiangnan, and there is no large-scale breeding and meat processing industry locally. Industry. So what did you rely on to relieve your illness?"
She turned her head, turned her gaze to Cheng Jinyang, and said:
"We have also heard about the Yang family's daughter. In the past, the daughter of the Yang family patriarch suffered from a strange disease. She was shameful and could not speak. She had to rely on masks and keyboards to communicate with people. She was considered a laughing stock in the circle."
"After living here for a while, my illness suddenly recovered. Now I can talk and laugh. She is a very cute little girl..."
Having said this, she showed a profound expression and continued:
"Qingqing, if you don't have a way to vent, it's because being with Jinyang has relieved your pressure, right?"
"My mother noticed it." Qingqing felt helpless and could only smile sweetly, with an expression of "I can't hide anything from you".
I can't explain the existence of dreams to her.
"In that case." Ms. Xie pondered for a moment and asked, "Can it be cured once and for all?"
"It's hard to say." Cheng Jinyang replied, "I will do my best."
"Yeah." Ms. Xie nodded, "There's one more thing..."
She lowered her voice and said:
"After passing through, you will go on the Northern Expedition. Can you take Qingqing with you?"
"Auntie wants Qingqing to go with me?" Cheng Jinyang asked in surprise.
Mothers try to keep their daughters out of trouble, but this one takes the initiative to ask her daughter to follow her out, which is really strange.
"If there is an emergency in the war, I believe you will not let Qingqing go to charge into the battle." Xie continued to say leisurely.
Cheng Jinyang was startled when he heard this, and then smiled bitterly:
This mother-in-law is really a cunning and cunning version of Qingqing.
Indeed, if he leads troops into Shu, as a commander, he will naturally not be involved in danger. In addition, although Qingqing is a girl, she is a fourth-grade person, and her ability to manipulate metal is explosive. In fact, after careful consideration, there is indeed no danger. .
Not only are the risks small, the benefits are huge. If other girls don't follow, Qingqing can take care of herself in the name of her personal bodyguard. Over time, she will naturally develop feelings for him.
Will it help her fight for the position of head wife after coming back? Absolutely.
Of course, only the stepmother can do this kind of calculation.
If she is a biological mother, even if she knows 99% that her daughter will not be in danger if she passes away, she still has to think about what to do if she encounters the one percent?
Thinking of this, Cheng Jinyang said seriously:
"Of course there is no problem with me, but it still depends on Qingqing's wishes."
"Qingqing, what do you think?" Ms. Xie looked at her daughter with a smile.
"Reply to mother." Miss Qingqing thought for a moment and then said seriously:
"No matter where Jinyang goes, whether it's mountains of swords or seas of fire, I am willing to follow him in life and death."
