Greetings, Ninth Uncle
Chapter 187
Cheng Yuanjing seemed to have a fire in his heart, which fell on the grass, and it burned into a prairie with a bang. He was anxious and angry, but in the end, there was a deep sense of distress.
How did she spend the whole New Year like this? Could it be that she has been so lonely these past two days?
Just as Cheng Yuanjing thought, County Master Qingfu and Mrs Ruan felt that this was not a big deal, and even Mrs. Cheng just nodded, not surprised. The female family members discussed a few words at will, originally wanting to return to the topic they had cut off before, but when they looked back and saw Cheng Yuanjing's expression, they were all silent.
Cheng Yuanjing did not deliberately exert pressure. He just looked at the maid just now and asked without emotion: "Who did she take with her when she went out? Which direction did she go?"
Cheng Yujin said to go back to get something, but Cheng Yuanjing didn't believe it. Cheng Yujin's face-to-face conversations are set, and it is a lot to believe in 50%.
The maid frowned and thought for a while, and said, "The girl took Du Ruo, it seems, and went west."
That was indeed the way back to Jinning Academy, so Cheng Yuanjing felt more at ease. He turned around and was about to leave, just when he went out, he happened to meet Cheng Yuanxian and others.
Cheng Yuanxian and Cheng Yuanhan led Huo Changyuan and Xu Erye into the yard. When they looked up and saw Cheng Yuanjing, they were all stunned: "Why are you back?"
Cheng Yuanxian was unprepared when he saw Cheng Yuanjing, and the words in his heart blurted out. After he asked, he felt that something was wrong, so he quickly corrected: "Why did you arrive today? Where have you been during this time, and even forgot to pay New Year's greetings to your mother on the first day of the new year?"
Cheng Yuanjing glanced at them lightly, Cheng Yuanxian was a little flustered by that look, he didn't dare to wait for Cheng Yuanjing to answer, and quickly settled the problem: "Although you are busy outside, you can't forget your home. It's not easy, let's go back and rest first."
Huo Chang Yuan watched Cheng Yuanxian skillfully smooth out a complete set of self-questioning and self-answering. He did not need anyone else to answer the whole process, and he performed a series of operations such as surprise, questioning, finding reasons, and rounding the field. It was smooth and natural.
As you can see, it has been done many times before.
Huo Chang Yuan was very speechless, how could Cheng Yuanxian look like a marquis and an eldest brother, but he was so humble in front of his younger brother. It was his former husband-in-law, Huo Changyuan couldn't bear to watch it, so he exited to help Cheng Yuanxian: "Cheng Yuanjing, I heard that you didn't come back this year for the New Year? Did something happen on official business?"
As soon as Huo Chang Yuan spoke, the topic immediately shifted to the official position, which relieved Cheng Yuanxian's embarrassment of talking to himself. Cheng Yuanjing was blocked by them, so he could only endure his impatience and reply: "No. Personal affairs."
This time, even Huo Chang Yuan couldn't hold his face, Cheng Yuanjing really cherished words like gold, and would not say a word more. Huo Chang Yuan had no choice but to take the initiative to say, "I don't want to inquire about private matters, but it's fine when you come back. The old lady and the uncle have mentioned you several times in private. Now that you have come back with all your tails, they can finally rest assured."
After Huo Chang Yuan finished speaking, he felt that something was wrong. He just felt that Cheng Yuanxian asked and answered himself, and it was too humble to find reasons for Cheng Yuanjing, but now, isn't he doing the same thing?
Huo Chang Yuan's expression changed instantly.
Cheng Yuanjing did not answer, and the scene fell into a cold scene for a while. Huo Chang Yuan could feel Cheng Yuanxian's feelings just now, but unfortunately no one made a clearance for Huo Chang Yuan at this time, and Cheng Yuanhan was still staring at Huo Chang Yuan with a dissatisfied face.
What's the matter with this kid, Cheng Yuanhan, the serious Mount Tai, is still here, Huo Changyuan is better, he is a big uncle, and he doesn't know that Cheng Yuanxian is his father-in-law!
The men blocked the door, no one wanted to speak for a while, and the situation was deadlocked. Fortunately, Cheng Yumo heard the voice at this time and walked out from the tip.
Mrs. Cheng's house is a ground dragon, and the circulation is very warm throughout the day. The windows in the house are half-supported to ventilate and disperse the fire, so as to prevent the master in the house from becoming ill. After Cheng Yumo walked to the main hall, she happened to see a familiar figure from the half-opened window. She was surprised, and suddenly jumped outside happily like a butterfly.
"Master Hou, you are here!"
Cheng Yumo didn't even bother to put on the cloak, so he opened the curtain and ran out. After going out, the icy air jolted Cheng Yumo, Cheng Yuanhan saw it, and hurriedly shouted, "Mo'er, you're still wearing a single shirt, go back and add clothes!"
Cheng Yumo didn't care, she quickly ran to Huo Chang Yuan's side and hugged Huo Chang Yuan's arm affectionately. Huo Chang Yuan was wearing a cloak, and he couldn't push Cheng Yumo away in front of the Cheng family. He could only hug her shoulders and bring her into the range of his cloak.
The maids who had just reacted ran out yelling, and when they went out to see this scene, they all stopped at the door, not knowing what to do.
When Ruan heard that Cheng Yumo ran outside without wearing a coat, she was startled and hurriedly followed. Ruan Shi had Cheng Yumo's cape in her hand, but when she saw the scene outside, she was stunned for a moment, and then immediately laughed. Huo Chang Yuan caught Cheng Yumo in front of everyone, did not reprimand her for being disrespectful, and hugged Cheng Yumo with his cloak, showing how much he loves Cheng Yumo. Ruan Shi was very proud, and immediately stopped giving Cheng Yumo a cloak, but said, "Second Master, Zhang Yuan, you have finished talking. Just now, my mother said that dinner was going to be set, and you just came back. Come in, it's cold outside."
When the little maids in the room heard the movement outside, they all leaned over to the window to look, quietly covering their mouths and snickering. Even the men in the Cheng family and the second master Xu showed teasing eyes. Huo Changyuan felt very embarrassed in such eyes. In fact, he was not used to Cheng Yumo's intimate actions in front of everyone. In private, Miles Yumo was sticking to him, which Huo Changyuan found useful, but in the public, Huo Changyuan felt ashamed. .
