Greetings, Ninth Uncle

Cheng Yujin went straight to Madam Cheng's courtyard. Madam Cheng's courtyard was full of people at the moment. Cheng Yujin walked in around the veranda, and many people quietly pointed out, "This is the eldest girl from the Houfu of Yichūn."

Cheng Yujin was at ease in the eyes of everyone, she lifted the curtain and entered the room, and found that there were also many wives and wives sitting in the room. Qiqi is different from the first seven to offer condolences. The people who come today are close to others, and most of them are related to the Marquis of Yichūn. Cheng Yujin didn't have stage fright. She first saluted Old Madam Cheng, then turned around, and said hello to all the wives in a generous way: "Hello, ladies, Yujin greets you all."

The wives laughed and pulled Cheng Yujin up. One of the wives pulled Cheng Yujin to her side, pointed to her and said to the lady next to her in black and gold armor, "Mrs. Zhai, this is Miss Cheng."

The introduced wife glanced at Cheng Yujin, and smiled politely: "So this is it, it looks good."

The person next to him smiled and said to Cheng Yujin, "This is the second wife of Cai Guogong's mansion. The manor's wife left last year, and now the mansion is in charge of the second wife."

It turned out to be from Cai Guogong's mansion, no wonder the eyes are higher than the top. Cheng Yujin smiled lightly, and saluted Mrs. Zhai's second wife decently and generously: "I have seen the second wife."

Mrs. Zhai Er nodded, too lazy to speak. She had the highest status in the field, and everyone was holding her. In fact, it was not all about holding Mrs. Zhai. The one who gave face to her was Zhai Yanlin, the Duke of Cai who was behind her. Mrs. Cheng asked Mrs. Zhai Er: "The second wife has to manage the affairs of the government, and she is very busy. Today, the second wife of labor is going to go there in person. The old body is really uncomfortable."

Mrs. Zhai Er had a complacent look on her face, but she was still modest: "Where, the eldest brother's house was supposed to be in charge, but last year, my sister-in-law went, and the uncle has to be busy with court affairs and take care of brother Qing. I'm happy, my mother-in-law only took care of the public house's internal affairs. Thanks to the trust of my brother-in-law and mother-in-law, I managed to manage it for two days. I'm a stupid person, I really can't handle such delicate matters."

Cheng Yujin vaguely knew the situation of Cai Guogong's mansion. Last year Cai Guogong lost his wife, leaving only a five-year-old only son, Zhai Qing. Cai Guogong was busy with the government, and the old lady of Cai Guogong's mansion favored her grandson, and she favored Zhai Qing to the point of being lawless, even more prodigal than Cheng Enbao. Cheng Enbao was clamoring for a dog a few days ago, and even after seeing Zhai Qing, he wanted to follow suit.

The only difference is that Cheng Enbao has a sister named Cheng Yujin, but Zhai Qing does not. Cheng Enbao bumped into Cheng Yujin's hand, and was tidied up, but looking at Mrs. Zhai's tone, I am afraid that Cai Guogong's family is following Zhai Qing everywhere, and no one can control this little devil at all.

Mrs. Zhai Er will appear here, also to take care of their family's lifeblood, the precious son Zhai Qing.

Cheng Yujin didn't have a good impression of the bear child, and she was even more insensitive to the behavior of Cai Guogong's mansion. On the contrary, Mrs. Cheng's eyebrows moved when she heard it.

Cai Guogong lost his wife for a year, and he has not heard of which girl he has booked. Mrs. Cheng was lying on the slump, her eyes narrowed, as if she closed her eyes and rested, and seemed to be thinking about something. After a while, Mrs. Cheng asked casually, "The prince is five years old, and it's time to pay attention to food, clothing, housing, and transportation. Why doesn't Cai Guogong marry a step-wife, and instead worry about these trivial matters?"

Mrs. Cheng's tone was very casual, as if she was speaking at home, and she accidentally mentioned a sentence. But Cheng Yujin knew Mrs. Cheng very well, and she realized almost immediately that Mrs. Cheng's drunkenness was not about drinking, but something else.

After this period, Cheng Yujin also re-examined the conversation just now. Cai Guozheng was in his prime years, and he was called the Duke of the State. He held an important position. He also had a newly deceased wife and only had a five-year-old son. In the eyes of these elders, Cai Guogong is in need of a virtuous wife.

Cheng Yujin frowned. Could it be that Mrs. Cheng likes her?

Chapter 45

After Mrs. Cheng asked, Mrs. Zhai Er said, "I can't make up my mind about this. It depends on what our old lady wants. However, the old lady has said several times that when Brother Qing lost his mother at the age of five, he lived in the back house. There is no one to rely on. If the stepmother is not a virtuous one and deliberately plots against Brother Qing after entering the door, how should he guard against him at such a young age? If the successor is young, blinded by wealth and honor, and the idea of ​​​​involving the title of the Duke's Mansion, I am afraid that it will cause chaos in the family. So the Duke and the old lady both mean this, and want to wait for Brother Qing to be older, or Find a girl with outstanding character, pure and kind heart, and can support the family business of the imperial government, and then discuss the matter of marrying the successor."

Cheng Yujin sneered in her heart. She wanted people to be able to stand up for the family business, to have no complaints and no regrets, to take good care of her ex's son, to try her best to be filial to her elderly mother, and in the end, she wanted the girl not to be greedy. , After a lifetime of hard work, all the family business belongs to the ex-wife's son, her son can't compete with Zhai Qing. Oh, if there really is such a bodhisattva, the Zhai family will raise one first.

Cheng Yujin felt unhappy, of course she wanted to marry Jin Guī's son-in-law, and the image she created for herself was virtuous and virtuous, also for this goal. However, this does not mean that she will fill in the house for others.

Still the stepmother of a five-year-old, Cheng Yujin suddenly felt offended.
