Greetings, Ninth Uncle
Chapter 70: Plum appreciation
After Cheng Yujin and Zhai Yanlin walked away, not long afterwards, they met Cheng Yumo, who was "accidentally dispersed".
Cheng Yumo probably guessed what happened just now. She didn't ask anything, neither of them spoke, and walked silently towards the garden.
This place was very close to the garden. After passing through two doors, Cheng Yujin could smell the cold fragrance of plum blossoms.
Cheng Yumo naturally smelled it too. She endured all the way, and finally couldn't help it, quietly turned to look at Cheng Yujin.
Cheng Yujin's face was calm and cold, and he couldn't see what happened just now. Cheng Yumo pursed his lips and asked in a low voice: "Sister, just now I seem to have seen the servants of Cai Guogong."
Cheng Yujin knew that the previous incident could not be concealed from her, and nodded simply, admitting generously: "Yes, I just had no intention of meeting Cai Guogong. Cai Guogong was going to find Mrs. Zhai. When Mrs. Zhai was talking to her grandmother, she came and asked Two sentences for me. "
This reason sounds reasonable, but Cheng Yumo knows that these words are all decorated by Qiao.
Cheng Yumo replied without further investigation. She bowed her head to think about something, and couldn't help but look at the people walking beside her again.
Cheng Yujin wore a white jacket on a white background and a light red pleated skirt underneath. When she came to accompany the Queen Mother, she wished that she could not wear a white body, so she made a compromise among Shou Xiao and the celebration. Although the color of the clothes is plain, but the fabrics are first-class and good, it is not shabby to look at, but it makes her like a white plum in the snow, and Qing Yan is outstanding.
Cheng Yumo stood on the side of Cheng Yujin. From the perspective of Cheng Yumo, Cheng Yujin's profile on the side of the face was exquisite, and his skin was white, like fine porcelain. The jacket was originally dignified, and the more solemn and noble it was when she wore it on Cheng Yujin. She walked slowly in the Xiangji Temple of the Fanyin array, which was so unspeakable and dreamlike.
Cheng Yumo had pantothenic acid in his heart. Originally, Cheng Yujin should be Mrs. Jing Yonghou. Later, when she was reborn, she explained the truth early, and then Mrs. Jing Yonghou's position fell on herself. Cheng Yumo always felt that this was the price that Cheng Yujin should pay. She replaced herself in the previous life and let herself suffer. This life is a change for Cheng Yujin, and she can't marry a good family. Isn't this justified?
But Cheng Yumo didn't expect it to be so. Cheng Yujin even turned against the wind. At the beginning of the year, he was remarried by Jingyong Houfu. It doesn't matter. In the summer, he was praised by the emperor. In June, he hit the filial piety of Hou Cheng Lao, and then Mrs. Cheng personally came forward and told Cheng Yujin to stay at home to observe filial piety in the form of a grandson. Mrs. Hou can no longer be, but now there are frequent visits to the Guogong Mansion, and she wants to hire Cheng Yujin to be Madam Guogong.
People are more mad than people.
Cheng Yumo really couldn't understand it. After she was divorced, she assumed that the woman had been abandoned. No matter what the reason was, the divorce was an indisputable fact. High-ranking households had to face, who would be left by others. of.
Cheng Yumo originally thought that Cheng Yujin's life must be abolished.
In this way, can the result be fancyed by Cai Guogong?
Cheng Yumo's heart is really inexhaustible. Madam Duke Guo is one level higher than her Mrs. Hou. If Cheng Yujin really married Cai Guogong's mansion, wouldn't Cheng Yumo even salute her when she saw her?
Cheng Yumo was very bored. The future state of Cai Guogong's government is far inferior to that of Jingyong Hou's government, and it is not obvious now. After a few years, Huo Changyuan will be reused by his prince, and his official position will advance by leaps and bounds. Cheng Yumo went out to entertain, and all the princes, even the princess, were polite when they saw her.
Cheng Yumo understands that even if Cheng Yujin becomes his wife, she will be inferior to her in the future. But after all, Cai Guogong's mansion is a veteran honourable man, and in any case, there is a knighthood to support it, and there is nowhere to go. Cheng Yujin's marriage to Cai Guogong's government was definitely a rebirth and a rebirth. This makes Cheng Yumo like a throat, and it is very uncomfortable whenever he thinks about it.
The two thought about each other, and no one wanted to speak, so they walked silently to the garden. The plum blossoms in the garden are splendid and fragrant, but it is a pity that neither Cheng Yujin nor Cheng Yumo has the thought of enjoying flowers at the moment.
The two of them pretended to be walking in the sea of flowers and moved to a pavilion to sit down and warm up. Cheng Yujin was thinking about the next thing. Zhai Yanlin was ridiculed by her in such a way that she would never move to marry her as a successor. However, the marriage is two-way, the Zhai family has solved it, but Mrs. Cheng ’s thoughts have to be resolved.
Cheng Yujin was fascinated by thought, and Cheng Yumo also looked down at the carving on the railing, not knowing what he was thinking.
The young ladies noticed that the two masters were not in the right mood, and they dared not make a sound. The pavilion was strangely quiet. In the silence, the voices and footsteps in the other direction became particularly noticeable.
Cheng Yujin quickly recovered. The garden of Xiangji Temple is different from the Chengjia Garden. Of course, anyone here can come. The other party's voice is a man, and there are still a lot of people listening to the footsteps. Cheng Yujin is not out of the cabinet and is still keeping his filial piety.
When Cheng Yujin stood up, Cheng Yumo also reacted. She had intended to avoid the same as Cheng Yujin, but seeing Cheng Yujin, Cheng Yumo's thoughts turned around and changed her mind without knowing how. She beckoned the girl, said: "The men outside do not know which one is coming, you go and tell them, Mrs. Jingyong Hou is here, let them avoid here."
Cheng Yumo finished speaking, trying to pretend to be noble and awe-inspiring, but could not help secretly seeing Cheng Yujin's reaction in the corners of his eyes.
Cheng Yujin's heart was translucent, and Cheng Yumo deliberately posed for her. Cheng Yumo self-confessed that Mrs. Jingyong Hou, refused to avoid the man, but let others avoid her. In fact, it's okay to do this. The strong is the king, and the powerful people certainly have arrogance of capital. However, this is done by Cheng Yumo, which is a bit ridiculous.
Cheng Yujin smiled lightly, but did not speak. It is of course better not to move places, anyway, it is not to embarrass yourself, Cheng Yujin is very happy. After receiving the order from Cheng Yumo, the girl turned and went out. After a while, those footsteps came in their direction.
Cheng Yumo was a little helpless and didn't know what was going on. After approaching, it was found that the leader was Huo Changyuan.
Cheng Yujin couldn't help but yell in his heart, dare to feel that the water rushed to the Dragon King Temple, Cheng Yumo went to expel his family?
Cheng Yujin couldn't help laughing, she stood up with everyone's actions. When Cheng Yumo saw Huo Changyuan, he was shocked and happy. Cheng Yumo rushed towards Huo Changyuan subconsciously. She took two steps to lift her skirt, seeming to inadvertently glance at Cheng Yujin.
Then in front of Cheng Yujin, he greeted Huo Changyuan with joy: "Hou Ye!"
Huo Changyuan subconsciously took Cheng Yumo. Cheng Yumo took Huo Changyuan's hand and naturally took his arm and hugged him. Cheng Yumo's active intimacy is nothing. In the face of so many people, his wife is so dependent on him. This is a face-saving thing. But Huo Changyuan looked up and saw that Cheng Yujin was also there, which made him embarrassed.
He moved his arm and wanted Cheng Yumo to stand well, and he didn't know what to say. He could only nod in his face: "Girl Cheng."
Cheng Yujin also smiled politely, nodding to Huo Changyuan: "Huo Houye."
The estrangement of the greetings between the two is decent and is a very standard mode of in-law greetings that are not too close. Huo Changyuan didn't know why he was wrong, Cheng Yumo was too sticky to him, but Cheng Yujin was cold on the contrary. Huo Changyuan couldn't tell why he was lost. After greeting Cheng Yujin, he didn't know what else to say, but could only be silent.
For a time, the scene fell into the cold.
But at this time, the people who stayed in place seemed to hear some sounds, and even came over on their own initiative.
Huo Changyuan was talking when he entered the garden, obviously there was more than him alone. Later, Cheng Yumo sent someone to clear the scene, Huo Changyuan knew that Cheng Yumo was there. The maid was so scared that her tongue was knotted. She stuttered and said, "Mrs. Hou is in front." She did not mention Cheng Yujin. As a husband, Huo Changyuan cannot always walk away without saying hello, and the people in the company seem to be not interested in meeting Huo Changyuan's family, so he stops and waits.
But at the moment, the other party took the person and walked straight towards the gazebo.
Cheng Yujin and Huo Changyuan said hello, and there was no sound. She folded her hands in front of her, her expression was light and dignified, and she stood on the pavilion. She was wearing a cloak, holding a heating stove in her hand, and standing on the steps with many mammoths. The red plums were burning behind her, and she looked like a court figure in the distance.
When Cheng Yuanjing approached, he saw such a scene.
Cheng Yumo snuggled beside Huo Changyuan, heard the footsteps and looked back, seeing Cheng Yuanjing, very surprised: "Nine Uncle, are you there too?"
Huo Changyuan finally found an opportunity, stepping back steplessly, explaining: "I met Jing Xing in the front hall, we talked a few words, and didn't pay attention to walk into the garden."
It turned out that the person who spoke to Huo Changyuan just now was Cheng Yuanjing. Cheng Yuanjing heard that Mrs. Jingyong Hou was in the pavilion and did not have any thoughts to talk to Cheng Yumo until he heard Cheng Yujin's voice just now.
Cheng Yumo also wanted to understand, she felt embarrassed and angry. She is a niece like Cheng Yujin, and Cheng Yuanjing's eccentricity is simply blatant.
Cheng Yujin stood in the pavilion, his sight was blocked by a cluster of plum trees, and he did not immediately find Cheng Yuanjing. She first heard the footsteps approaching, then Cheng Yumo turned her head and shouted in surprise: "Nine Uncle, are you there?"
Cheng Yuanjing? Cheng Yujin was also taken aback, she immediately handed the stove to Du Ruo, carrying the skirt herself, and quickly walked down the steps. The pure white cloak swept on the steps, sticking a few red petals.
Cheng Yumo was angry with Cheng Yuanjing, and Huo Changyuan saw Cheng Yujin's performance, and there was a surge of anger in his heart. Cheng Yujin has been standing on the tall pavilion indifferently. Even when he met him, he only nodded with a smile, the smile was polite and alienated, which was a standard noble greeting. But just listening to Cheng Yumo yelled Uncle Ji, but did not see anyone, Cheng Yujin's eyes changed, and immediately took the skirt down the stairs.
Should differential treatment be so obvious, or not cover up at all?
Cheng Yujin walked quickly, the cloak rolled up a small airflow, and brought a plum fragrance. It was at this time that another group of people also bypassed the bushes, without the shade of the trees, and presented the full picture of the head of the person.
"Nine Uncle!"
Cheng Yuanjing reached out and took Cheng Yujin firmly: "What to run, there is still snow on the ground, be careful to slide." He then found Cheng Yujin's hand empty and asked: "What about your hand stove?"
Cheng Yujin had no intention of paying attention to these. When she saw the people in front of her, she suddenly developed a strong sense of disobedience.
She originally thought it was a coincidence to see Huo Changyuan in the garden, but at this moment, Cheng Yujin put a question mark in her heart.
Others may not know it, but Cheng Yujin knows very well that Cheng Yuanjing and Huo Changyuan are completely unfamiliar. Let's not talk about whether this person Cheng Yuanjing will be aimlessly visiting the garden, even if he really wants to come out and relax, he will never find Huo Changyuan.
Cheng Yujin couldn't help thinking. Today the emperor also accompanied the empress dowager to go to the palace to incense.
Cheng Yujin felt his hands tremble.
Cheng Yuanjing ignored Cheng Yujin's expression, he looked up at Du Ruo, Du Ruo shook his hand instinctively, and immediately presented the small hand furnace. Cheng Yuanjing took it, and after seeing that the hand-burning furnace was quite enough, he sat in Cheng Yujin's hand with satisfaction.
Something was suddenly put in the palm of his hand, and Cheng Yujin held it subconsciously. She had no intention of caring about what she had in her hand now. She looked at the person in front of her and wanted to see even the slightest fluctuation in his face.
Unfortunately, no. He is tall, lined with the plum blossoms behind him, and is more slender and straight, and indifferent like jade. Cheng Yuanjing found a leaf in Cheng Yujin's hood. He reached out his hand freely and picked up the dead leaves from Cheng Yujin's hat.
Huo Changyuan watched these two people talking indifferently, picking up leaves. At that moment Huo Changyuan even had doubts. Was he the newly married person? Why are Cheng Yuanjing and Cheng Yujin acting like newly married couples?
Huo Changyuan and Cheng Yumo were ignored for a long time. He only coughed and said, "Jing Xing, it's windy here, why don't you talk in another place."
Cheng Yuanjing's eyes did not move away, he said casually: "Okay, just go back to the pavilion just now."
Huo Changyuan and Cheng Yumo had to walk to the pavilion. After the two of them turned around, Cheng Yuanjing lowered his head, seeing Cheng Yujin still looking at him with concentration and carefulness.
He looked down at Cheng Yujin and suddenly smiled in such eyes. He took down the petals stuck in Cheng Yujin's hair and said, "No need to be nervous, it's not a big deal."
Cheng Yuanjing clearly understood Cheng Yujin's idea. This sentence sounds unremarkable in others' ears, but in Cheng Yujin's ears, it is completely different.
The conjecture in her heart was confirmed, and she became even more anxious. Is there really no big deal? Cheng Yuanjing suddenly talked to Huo Changyuan, and suddenly appeared in the garden, it would never be a whim.
However, there were many people around him at this moment, and Cheng Yujin couldn't ask, so he had to sit back in the pavilion with anxiety. Huo Changyuan and Cheng Yumo are husband and wife. Sitting at the moment, Cheng Yujin didn't pay attention and naturally sat beside Cheng Yuanjing.
After they sat down, the maid put down the curtain to block the wind. Huo Changyuan and Cheng Yuanjing talked from time to time. Several people were talking. Suddenly there was a noise at the entrance of the yard.
The other party seemed to be deliberately traveling in small clothes, but there was only one copy of his arrogance, and several people in the pavilion turned pale.
Cheng Yujin finally understood what the "not a big deal" that Cheng Yuanjing just said was. The emperor came to the garden to see the plum blossoms.
What the **** wasn't a big deal, Cheng Yujin hurriedly stood up and stared at Cheng Yuanjing when others didn't pay attention.
