After Cheng Yumo's return banquet, the biggest celebration in Yichun Marquis's mansion this year was finished. Everyone in the Cheng family has filial piety. After Cheng Yumo got married, he was already a member of the Huo family. He could not get in and out, but the Cheng family couldn't.

Princess Qingfu and others stop thinking and stay in the Marquis's house to be filial to Marquis Cheng.

In a twinkling of an eye, it's November. The weather is cold and hard. When you go out, you will feel white. Cheng Yujin wore a fluffy collar around her neck and a silver pink jacket and skirt. She went to give Mrs. Cheng a routine greeting.

She's been staying at home these few months. She's been cultivating herself. She's very calm. The business of linlangge and yunyifang is gradually on the right track. At the end of each month, they send Cheng Yujin an account book. According to the account book and sales situation, Cheng Yujin prepares new patterns for the second month. When she was ready, she sent it to Cheng Yuanjing's courtyard and asked Liu Yi to take it out for her.

Knowing that her external strength was weak, Cheng Yujin paid special attention to establishing a good relationship with the young men in Cheng Yuanjing's courtyard. They run outside all day long, knowledgeable and well-informed, while Cheng Yujin stays in the inner house, staying at home. She is the last one to know what happens outside. I can't tell when I'll use them.

It's a pity that Cheng Yuanjing has to leave. She doesn't use these people for long, so she should make good use of the last time.

Over the past few months, yunyifang and linlangge have gradually gained their fame and spread their names among the female dependents. At first, it was yunyifang. After all, yunyifang was located in the most prosperous street. The female family members living nearby found it by chance. Tuxin tried the new look of yunyifang. Later, they found that the cutting of yunyifang was very ingenious. The same cloth could not be worn by other cloth houses. The new style of yunyifang is regularly launched every month, with more and more female customers and more repeat customers. The reputation of yunyifang has spread from the rich official circle to the noble circle where Cheng Yujin lives.

But linlangge is slower than yunyifang. After all, clothes change every quarter, but jewelry can be used for a long time. However, women's love for beauty is irresistible. More and more people know about the Pavilion when their wives wear the jewelry of the pavilion.

Cheng Yujin saw the account books at the end of each month and felt very satisfied.

Without money and other worries, she was determined to solve her marriage problems. Her husband's target, Lin Qingyuan, has not appeared for a long time.

Maybe it's not that Lin Qingyuan hasn't been to Yichun Marquis's house for such a long time, but Cheng Yujin never met again. Cheng Yujin frequently went to Cheng Yuanjing's courtyard for the reason of borrowing books during this period. However, how many times did she go back and forth? She never met Lin Qingyuan by chance.

Cheng Yujin doesn't understand it. It's impossible according to the truth. Every time she comes, she calculates it. She chooses the time when Lin Qingyuan often comes to visit Cheng Yuanjing. Why didn't you see him once?

Cheng Yujin didn't think about Cheng Yuanjing. Liu Yi and others are all people who make a living in the inner court. They are full-time people who make a living in the inner court. If they don't want them to meet each other, even if they walk across each other at the same time, they have a way to make them diverge.

It's easy for people to lose their sense of time in a calm and regular life. Cheng Yujin's plan hasn't been promoted for a long time. She should have been worried, but maybe it's because the current state is too calm and comfortable. She even thinks that it's not bad. Every morning, she would like to say hello and take a nap at noon. Then she would go to Cheng Yuanjing's house to read a book and stay at Lin Qingyuan's house. If she can't finish reading in the evening, she often comes back with books to read, and both sides become her foothold.

Cheng Yujin changed her hairy winter clothes. As soon as she entered the yard, the maid in the room saw her. The servant girl quickly came out to pick out the curtain for her and said happily, "here comes the big girl!"

Cheng Yumo has been married and will come to old lady Cheng every day. Only Cheng Yujin is left. Gradually, it has become the hope of the maid of Shouan hall. It seems that the big girl has come, and the new day officially begins.

Cheng Yujin nodded and laughed at the maid and asked, "where's grandma?"

"The old lady is in there. As soon as the old lady said she had no appetite today, it happened that the big girl came. The old lady likes big girls best. If she looks at them, she may have a good appetite. "

"Oh, grandma has a bad appetite?" Cheng Yujin glanced at the upper room and said, "I'll go to see my grandmother. Thanks to your reminding me, forsythia, prepare some money for this elder sister's morning tea. "

Forsythia, knowing what to do, went forward and stuffed a broken silver ingot into the servant girl. The servant girl laughs and says, "how funny that is."

"Grandma can't live without people here, thanks to my sister watching for me. This is some of my thoughts. My sister took it to have a cup of hot tea and let me have peace of mind, OK

The servant girl took it with half a push. So all the maids in Shouan hall like Cheng Yujin very much. The big girl can make people see her every day. She is very generous. As long as they are diligent, they can get Cheng Yujin's reward every day.

In this way, the servant girls prefer to run errands for Cheng Yujin. What's the matter with Shouan hall? They also scramble to tell Cheng Yujin, just to get the first reward.

Cheng Yujin looks at the servant girl's eyes and puts away the silver. She also smiles more softly. Now she earns a lot every month. Yunyifang and linlangge can bring her huge profits every month. She lives and eats in Yichun Marquis's residence. Recently, because of filial piety, she doesn't need to go out to socialize. She can hardly get in and out. These silver coins are not money in her eyes.However, such a small amount of money can make old lady Cheng's servant girls like her more. What Cheng Yujin wants to do, she can get twice the result with half the effort. Happy with each other, why not.

For example, now that Cheng Yujin has just had a face-to-face interview, she knows that old lady Cheng has just got up and has a bad appetite. I don't want to eat in the early morning. It can be seen that I couldn't have a good sleep last night. Cheng Yujin knows what to say for a while.

Cheng Yujin went into the house. First, she untied her cape and neck cover in the mansion and put on her soft soled shoes. Then she went to the west room. It's different from the old lady Cheng's house, which burns in autumn. The warm and dry air circulates underground, and even the floor is warm. It's very comfortable to step on it. People can walk in the room and directly wear single clothes in spring and summer.

Mrs. Cheng's room is warm as spring, and other people don't have this comfort. In other courtyards, including Cheng Yujin's house, there are charcoal fires. Even if you use the best charcoal, you don't have to worry about the shortage of charcoal fires. It's not as good as Mrs. Cheng's large-scale earthworm. At least Cheng Yujin didn't dare to wear single clothes in her room.

She took off her heavy clothes and was light. Cheng Yujin sincerely sighs that it's so comfortable to be an old lady. When a woman was young, she served her elders at her mother's home. When she got married, she served her mother-in-law. When her seniority got better, she had to worry about her children. I'm afraid the only time she really enjoyed her whole life was when she was an old prince.

Like Mrs. Cheng, she doesn't care about everything, but the whole family still has money in her hands. Her two sons and daughter-in-law should be careful to please her. Every day, there is a young granddaughter in front of her. It's so comfortable. Cheng Yujin's goal is to become the future Mrs. Cheng.

However, all this is based on the fact that Cheng Yuanxian and Cheng Yuanhan were born to old lady Cheng, and Cheng Yuanxian is about to become the next successor of the marquis. Without one of these two conditions, Mrs. Cheng could not have such a happy life.

Therefore, the root of happiness in old age lies in the fact that one's own son wants to be in power. Cheng Yujin stepped on the warm floor of Shouan hall, married into the high gate, realized the class leap, and had a comfortable old age.

Cheng Yujin went to the innermost part. Sure enough, Mrs. Cheng was leaning on the Luohan bed, with her forehead tied with a broad bean emerald. The light in the room was dim, and Mrs. Cheng was listless. She leaned against the soft pillow, and the servant girl beat her leg.

Cheng Yujin came in, saw the situation, naturally said with a smile: "good day, grandmother."

Old lady Cheng nodded without much spirit. Seeing this, Cheng Yujin quietly went to Luohan's bed, took the work from the servant girl, and poured a cup of hot tea for old lady Cheng leisurely: "grandma, listen to the servant girl say you have a bad appetite today? My granddaughter got up late today. She didn't have time to eat when she went out. She was planning to come here to eat. Can your granddaughter have a good time in the kitchen

Mrs. Cheng was said to smile. Everyone was happy when she saw the beautiful young girl early in the morning. Mrs. Cheng's brow unconsciously spread out and said, "since you haven't eaten yet, let's have dinner first."

Seeing Cheng Yujin's two words, the servant girls convinced old lady Cheng to have dinner. They all looked at each other with gratitude and admiration. They had been persuading for a long time, and their lips were almost worn out, but Mrs. Cheng's reaction was light, and she was even impatient to listen. As soon as the big girl came, two sentences made sense.

Sure enough, the big girl has a way.

No one dares to detain Mrs. Cheng. Mrs. Cheng's breakfast has been ready for a long time. She has been warming up in the small kitchen. When she hears that Mrs. Cheng has finally passed on the meal, the servant girl is too busy to deliver it. Mrs. Cheng's dishes are the best. Even her breakfast is so rich. She has porridge, snacks and small dishes, but she can hardly put them down in the end.

Cheng Yujin sighs in her heart. She feels more and more that it's good to be rich and powerful. I don't know when she will reach the level of Mrs. Cheng.

Cheng Yujin is a granddaughter, not a daughter-in-law. Now she can sit down and have dinner together. Mrs. Cheng tried to help her with the food. Mrs. Cheng didn't eat much in the morning.

However, Mrs. Cheng is old and has a bad appetite. Today's dosage has reached the usual average. The maid of Shouan hall looks at Cheng Yujin as if she is looking at the salvation Bodhisattva. Cheng Yujin observes that old lady Cheng has almost eaten, and she puts down her chopsticks at the right time: "grandmother, granddaughter, will you have a cup of hot tea?"

Mrs. Cheng nods. Cheng Yujin takes the tea from the maid and hands it to Mrs. Cheng. It's said that Cheng Yujin is waiting on her. In fact, she just has a hand. There are very few places where she really needs to work.

Old lady Cheng changes to the Luohan bed outside to have tea, and the servant girls take the dish down. After Mrs. Cheng finished drinking, Princess Qingfu came slowly.

Princess Qingfu came to greet Mrs. Cheng just to order a Mao. No one expected her to do more. As usual, Mrs. Cheng and her eldest daughter-in-law made a face, casually asked a few questions, and then directly let her go back. Today, I don't know what happened, but Mrs. Cheng left Princess Qingfu to come down and asked a few more questions: "how's brother Bao? The temperature dropped a few days ago. It's cold and dry. It's easy to get cold. Are the people there alert? ""Mother, don't worry. I've knocked it several times. They get up three times every night and cover Baoer with quilts. It's OK." Princess Qingfu came back quickly.

For her own son, Qingfu is really interested. Mrs. Cheng nodded and turned to another thing that she didn't know: "the temperature changed a few days ago, and many people fell ill. I heard that the empress of the palace was also infected with the cold, and she didn't get well for several days. The Empress Dowager worried about the queen, so she went to ask for a peace charm for the queen. Unexpectedly, the queen would be better. The Empress Dowager is very happy and says that she is going to make a vow with the Bodhisattva. "

"Oh?" Princess Qingfu raised her eyebrows in surprise. What happened in the palace has nothing to do with people like them. It's just that the Cheng family is the Marquis's house after all. They have accumulated some contacts after generations of management. For example, the princess Qingfu doesn't know what's going on among the maidens in the palace. On the contrary, Mrs. Cheng, who is old and frail and seems to be trapped in the Marquis's residence all day, gets the news first.

Cheng Yujin didn't leave after dinner. She also followed old lady Cheng to brush her reputation. She didn't expect to hear such a news. Whenever Mrs. Cheng says it, she is not just talking about it. There must be some meaning behind it.

Cheng Yujin didn't care much about the affairs in the palace. Those noble people were too far away from her. Although she was a lady of Hou family, she was still several orders of magnitude away from going in and out of the palace. She hasn't even met the ordinary lady who is not the favorite. How can she meet the queen and the Empress Dowager?

Planning what is in front of her is foresight. Planning what is not in the same class with herself is overstepping her capacity. Cheng Yujin knows her weight, so she won't waste her energy and do nothing in return.

However, since she overheard the conversation between Cheng Yuanjing and Marquis Cheng and learned the true identity of Cheng Yuanjing, it seemed that the distant palace suddenly came to her, and Cheng Yujin unconsciously began to pay attention to the changes in the palace. Now, for example, when Mrs. Cheng talks about empress and empress dowager, Cheng Yujin, who used not to pay more attention, quietly raises her ears and listens to what Mrs. Cheng says next.

Princess Qingfu asked, "mother, what does the empress mean? How can she repay her wish? "

Mrs. Cheng sighed, with a dignified voice that outsiders could not understand: "the Empress Dowager wants to go out of the palace in person and return her wish to Xiangji mountain."

"Ah?" Princess Qingfu was surprised and asked, "is this news accurate?"

Mrs. Cheng was silent, but nodded slightly. Princess Qingfu and Cheng Yujin understand. It seems that the noble empress dowager has made a decision.

The Empress Dowager's status is not higher than that of the Empress Dowager. For the most part, the female dependents of high rank in the capital have to accompany them.

The existing men in Yichun Marquis's mansion have made no achievements in their official career, but they are ashamed that their family has a title, second grade.

Qingfu still has the title of princess. She has a second grade grade. No matter from which direction, Cheng Yujin has the opportunity to accompany her.

Cheng Yujin has a little understanding of why Mrs. Cheng's mind is not in the early morning, but she can't understand why she is so preoccupied that she has no appetite to eat. Isn't it a good thing that the Cheng family, a half baked Marquis, has a chance to travel with the Empress Dowager? Why is Mrs. Cheng worried?

Princess Qingfu didn't think so far as Cheng Yujin. After she confirmed the news, her eyes and eyebrows were overjoyed: "that's great. I haven't asked the Empress Dowager for some years."

But Mr. Cheng sighed and said, "if it's just the Empress Dowager's going out of the palace, the Empress Dowager would have been a very hard-working woman. What's amazing is that the emperor has to accompany the Empress Dowager to the mountain to fulfill her vows. "

Cheng Yujin heard the emperor, his heart suddenly a Deng. Although the Empress Dowager's going out of the palace is a little puzzling, it still makes sense. After all, the Empress Dowager respects Buddhism and donates a lot of merits to the temple every year. But it was unusual for the emperor to accompany him out of the palace.

This is exactly what Mrs. Cheng can't figure out. Now that the emperor is at the peak of spring and autumn, the second prince is getting older, while the prince is still missing. Qingfu can't understand it. Mrs. Cheng, who has experienced the change of dynasties, is very sensitive.

Old lady Cheng was worried before. However, when she thought about the appearance of her two sons, she felt that with the spirit of the Cheng family, no matter how big the waves you are, you can't get a picture of the Cheng family. But this time, the emperor suddenly went out of the palace out of his normal way, detonating Mrs. Cheng's anxiety.

Is the weather going to change so soon? Did the emperor know something when he left the palace?

Princess Qingfu was overjoyed. When she saw that Mr. Cheng was calm, she could not help sighing and sighing. Cheng Yujin also bowed her head and did not speak. She felt that she did not understand: "the emperor will come out of the palace if he wants to. Today, there is a reputation for filial piety. At the beginning, the Empress Dowager supported his succession. He was filial to the Empress Dowager and accompanied her to fulfill her vows. Is that not unusual? "

Old lady Cheng sighed and said, "maybe."

Cheng Yujin stood aside, silent. Mrs. Cheng couldn't figure out why, but she roughly guessed.

From the future, Cheng Yujin may not think much, but now she knows Cheng Yuanjing's true identity, how can she not understand what the emperor came out of the palace for.Perhaps, the emperor deliberately went around in such a big circle, even under the guise of accompanying the Empress Dowager to fulfill her vows, filial piety and gratitude. His real purpose was just to see Cheng Yuanjing.

Cheng Yuanjing, you are about to recover your identity.
