Greetings, Ninth Uncle

Did she really marry the wrong one?

Chapter 118

Cheng Yumo was confused, and when she woke up and looked up, she found that she was the only one left in the outer hall. Huo Chang Yuan had already entered, without greeting her at all.

Cheng Yumo pinched her fingers tightly into her palm, this is her husband, this is her family. Accidentally, Cheng Yumo broke her little fingernail.

She stared at the bloodshot on her little finger with a dazed look on her face. At this moment, the maids were all surrounded by the warm pavilion, and no one noticed Cheng Yumo's accident at all. And Cheng Yumo didn't call anyone. She hid her injured hand in her sleeve and didn't even bandage the wound. She walked into the warm pavilion like a wandering soul and listened to everyone talking.

She sat there, distracted from time to time.

Cheng Yumo couldn't help thinking that she was no worse than Cheng Yujin, even more interesting than Cheng Yujin, and much more liked by men than Cheng Yujin. If it wasn't for the fact that the Cheng family had no more daughters and married the ninth uncle, he would have been the one who had never been let go. So now, is she the princess who is treated gently by the prince and envied by everyone?

After Li Chengjing came, all the topics revolved around Li Chengjing and Cheng Yujin. After they talked for a while, it was time for lunch. Mrs. Cheng spoke, and everyone moved to the dining room to have lunch together.

While eating, Cheng Yujin accidentally choked on the chili pepper in her throat. She frowned and held back. Forsythia, who was waiting behind her, didn't find it, but Li Chengjing glanced at her and said, "Bring me a gu cheese rǔ."

When the prince spoke, the maid hurriedly went to the kitchen to pass a message, and everyone at the dinner table stopped their chopsticks, looking at Li Chengjing: "His Royal Highness, it was the negligence of the ministers and others who did not consider the dishes carefully. The minister is disrespectful, please forgive me."

Li Chengjing waved his hand, poured a cup of tea in his hand, shook it slowly in his hand, and said, "It's not that I like it, it's just that the cheese is soothing and good for the throat."

Following Li Chengjing's gaze, everyone found in a trance that Li Chengjing was calling for Cheng Yujin. Forsythia realized it later, and hurriedly prepared porridge for Cheng Yujin to relieve the spiciness. Li Chengjing stopped and said, "The porridge is too hot, and it will become more spicy after drinking it."

At this time, the tea in his hand seemed to be cold. Li Chengjing tried his fingers on the wall of the cup and said, "The temperature is just right. Clear your throat first."

Cheng Yujin was speechless, nodded and took the tea. When she was drinking tea, Li Chengjing naturally played for her. After Cheng Yujin finished drinking, Li Chengjing took the tea cup and put it on the serving tray of the maid, then gently stroked Cheng Yujin's back: "Do you feel better?"

Cheng Yujin nodded and said, "Much better, thank you, Your Highness."

At this time, the kitchen brought cheese, and Cheng Yujin saw helpless: "But I was choked a little, so I don't need to be so troublesome."

"Why is it troublesome." Li Chengjing said lightly, raised his sleeves, and gave Cheng Yujin a dish, and said, "This dish is light, try these."

People at a table were caught off guard and were shown a face. Li Chengjing's movements were very natural. He poured tea and water for Cheng Yujin, and he was familiar and comfortable, and he didn't feel that it would damage the man's prestige at all. And Cheng Yujin's performance was also very bland, with no intention of showing off, and even looking at the expressions of Forsythia and others, it was obviously commonplace.

Cheng Yuanxian held up his chopsticks and didn't know how to put down the chopsticks. The old couples, Cheng Min and Qingfu, were full of emotion, while the unmarried girls at the other table looked at the scene in front of them. Cheng Min was envious and sighed. She quietly glanced at Xu Nianchūn who was sitting at another table, thinking that as long as her daughter could find a gentleman who was one-tenth of His Royal Highness's consideration in the future, she would be a mother. is satisfied.

When Ruan saw it, she couldn't help but look at Huo Chang Yuan and Cheng Yumo. The couple also sat together, but they each had their own meal, and they haven't said a word, not even a glance at each other, since they got to the table.

...like a stranger. No, it's worse than strangers, at least to strangers, Huo Chang Yuan wouldn't be so indifferent and rude.

Ruan sighed in her heart, but apart from her at the dinner table, no one paid attention to Cheng Yumo and Huo Chang Yuan, and everyone looked at the prince and the princess.

Maybe it's not that they didn't notice, but the two couples at the same table, the contrast between each other is too obvious, and everyone else is afraid to talk about it.

Madam Cheng glanced at everyone's expressions, and she turned back and forth in her heart, and in the end there was only a long sigh.

She originally thought that the prince was honorable and courteous, and Cheng Yujin also had a regular temperament. When the two were together, I was afraid that after marriage, they would treat each other like guests, and would be dull and deadly. When Mrs. Cheng returned home on the third day, she even wondered if their husband and wife were acting. It wasn't that Mrs. Cheng didn't believe the prince, but because she didn't believe Cheng Yujin.

But now, time has proved everything, and their self-righteous speculations are actually despicable malice. It can be installed in three days or two days, or even in a month, but what about half a year?

Love can be faked, but eyes can't be faked.

At first, Mrs. Cheng was not very optimistic about the eldest granddaughter pair. When two calm and smart people are put together, no one can subdue the other. It is better to put a charming and innocent woman next to the prince, and it will be more pleasing to the prince. After all, men don't like women who are too smart. Like Huo Changyuan and Cheng Yumo, who are mighty and who are ignorant of the world, who are savage and who rely on them wholeheartedly, are good.
