Cheng Yujin looks at Zhai Yanlin behind her. She has mixed feelings and doesn't know what to think.

Mrs. Cheng so coincidentally asked her to visit the garden, so coincidentally separated from Cheng Yumo on the way, and so coincidentally met Zhai Yanlin. It must not be a chance encounter.

Mrs. Cheng did not know when she and Mrs. Zhai reached a consensus and arranged such a meeting in the garden. Cheng Yujin really thanks her grandmother for her hard work.

However, it has already happened. It is useless to investigate the cause and vent her emotions at this time. When Cheng Yujin turns around, she has calmed down. She has no intention of moving. She distantly asks Zhai Yanlin to say hello to him half a yard away: "Duke CAI."

Compared with Cheng Yujin's estrangement, Zhai Yanlin is more enthusiastic. He doesn't care about this distance at all. Women are reserved and introverted. If she doesn't want to come over, he'll just walk over.

Zhai Yanlin strides towards Cheng Yujin. As he approaches, the details of Cheng Yujin's appearance are also presented. Zhai Yanlin has to feel that he is right. Cheng Yujin is the best jade. Although she wears plain clothes, she doesn't give full play to her strength. A woman like her should be supported by all the precious gold and jade in the world. She is born to be arched by the stars, piled with gold and jade, and obeyed like a cloud.

Out of a man's instinct, Zhai felt better when he saw the beauty. Strange to say, he has seen many beautiful women, and his wife and concubines are one in a hundred wonderful people. But since he met process Yujin, I don't know what happened, but he couldn't bear to see her for a few months. Learning that the Empress Dowager is going to return her vows, Zhai Yanlin's first reaction is not to analyze the connotation, but to think in surprise that Cheng Yujin will be able to leave the palace.

He will have a chance to see Cheng Yujin.

This "chance encounter" was originally inspired by him. Even if Mrs. Zhai wants to see Cheng Yujin, she doesn't want to go to Dala to let Zhai Yanlin and Cheng Yujin meet directly, which is arranged by Zhai Yanlin secretly.

On the one hand, Zhai felt that he was in a bad state. On the other hand, he was immersed in the joy of seeing Cheng Yujin. Zhai Yanlin, with the light of aggression in his eyes, came closer and closer. Cheng Jinyu steps back and frowns.

"Duke Cai, stay here." Cheng Yujin stood at the back and said coldly, "men and women give and receive each other's favors. Although the little girl accidentally met the Duke of the country, I'm afraid she would be misunderstood if she was seen by others. It's better not to stand too close. "

Hearing this, Zhai Yanlin raised his eyebrows in surprise and joked: "what does Miss Cheng mean?"

Cheng Yujin was annoyed by Zhai Yanlin's slightly provocative tone of speech, as if he had completely seen through her, with the kind of light selection he was used to for women. Cheng Yujin is a double standard person. It's her business to compare the candidates, but if she is chosen by others, she can't accept it.

Cheng Yujin's face is still cold, even smile are reluctant to give: "is the meaning that the Duke heard."

Zhai Yanlin's face softened. He had thought that Cheng Yujin was playing hard to get. Women were like that. In order to show their value, they always had to pretend to be noble and hang people.

Zhai Yanlin has seen many women pretend to be reserved and play hard to get. Cheng Yujin doesn't seem to hate other people's boring work, so Zhai Yanlin is willing to accompany her. However, Zhai Yanlin is not an unsophisticated person after all. Cheng Yujin's last words only make him feel cold.

How could she really refuse him?

Zhai Yanlin felt incredible. His face became cold and his voice was low: "Miss Cheng, since you are here, you must know everything you should know. What's your intention in this attitude? "

Zhai didn't hide what he had done, and Cheng Yujin didn't dodge. She raised her head to meet Zhai's eyes: "since the Duke of the Kingdom already knows, I might as well say it straight. When I went to greet my grandmother, I met Mrs. Zhai

Cheng Yujin just stopped for a moment and then asked, "what does Duke Cai want to do?"

Zhai Yanlin was a little surprised. He knew that Cheng Yujin had mostly understood the intention of CAI government, or his intention. But out of the consideration of women's shyness, Zhai Yanlin thought that Cheng Yujin would not say this kindly.

However, since she said it directly, Zhai Yanlin was not polite and said, "that's right. The young lady, who is too proud to be married in the new garden, is still unable to remember her journey. My mother and I both thought that Miss Cheng would be a good wife and mother. Therefore, I want to propose marriage to the Marquis's house and marry a big girl to be the first lady of the state of CAI. "

Cheng Yujin heard laughing, at this time, she finally had the usual dignified and decent girl's shadow, no longer cold as ice, refusing people thousands of miles away.

Zhai Yanlin was a little absent-minded. At this time, Cheng Yujin spoke.

"Of course I would be a good wife and mother." Cheng Yujin asked with a smile, "but why is it yours?"

Zhai Yanlin was as like as two peas in the mouth. He heard the same thing from Cheng Yuan's mouth. Zhai Yanlin's mind was complicated for a moment. He even questioned his judgment for a moment. Is it true that Cheng Yujin and Cheng Yuanjing are real nephews? Otherwise, the logic of thinking is too similar, isn't it?Out of this subtle psychology, Zhai Yanlin did not directly answer, but asked: "why does the big girl say that?"

Zhai Yanlin is really curious. He met Cheng Yuanjing when he was helping the Huo family to meet her. At that time, Cheng Yuanjing also said such words and warned Zhai Yanlin not to move Cheng Yujin's idea.

Even though Cheng Yuanjing has a bright future and an unlimited future, Zhai Yanlin does not take Cheng Yuanjing's warning seriously.

It's a man's instinct to pursue power and beauty. Cheng Yujin is young and beautiful, which has nothing to do with Cheng Yuanjing. Why does Cheng Yuanjing restrict other men from pursuing her?

But Zhai wanted to hear what Cheng Yujin said, or why she said it.

"Cai Guogong said that I am an ideal wife and mother, and I feel the same way." Cheng Yujin's gentle smile, eyes like paint, is her most common expression in front of people, but the light in her eyes, and she was always gentle and virtuous Miss Cheng separated, with a sense of unspeakable disobedience.

"I have a clean family and a decent family background. Although I'm not a top class family, my father is the son of Yichun marquis. Now I'm going to be a Marquis of Yichun soon, and my mother is Princess Qingfu. In the eyes of many high-ranking ladies, this is an ideal family background for my daughter-in-law. My status is not high or low, but I'm clean and decent enough. As for me, I am quiet and beautiful, good-looking, obedient, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, good at needlework, cooking, housekeeper, to meet all the requirements of a good wife and mother. Don't mention you, I want to marry such a daughter-in-law to go home. "

Zhai Yanlin frowned. These words made him feel uncomfortable. Zhai Yanlin frowned and said, "Miss Cheng, you are a girl..."

"As a lady, how can you say that, right?" Cheng Yujin still smiles sweetly and cleverly, "but this is the fact in the eyes of the public. This is the result of my efforts for many years, from a perfect Houmen girl to a perfect daughter-in-law candidate. In the future, I will become a perfect bride, perfect wife, perfect wife. That's my goal. As long as I can get what I want, it's not difficult to create this perfect image all the time. "

"When I learned what the government meant, I thought about it carefully. I can manage both the government and Zhai Qing well. Although it's a bit tricky, it's not impossible for me to regain the power of housekeeper and bring Zhai Qing back to the right path. I've worked hard. What can Cai Guogong bring me? "

When Zhai Yanlin heard these words, he was shocked and could not say anything at all. As usual, all the women came to him one after another, no matter they wanted to be concubines or stepwives for him. But no one ever asked him, what can you bring me?

What did you bring her? Zhai Yanlin's three outlooks are fierce. He is the Duke of CAI. He has wealth and power that everyone envies. He is tall and handsome. Shouldn't women love him as they should?

Zhai Yanlin can't believe it. He is used to choosing women by himself. He never thought that a woman would stand opposite him and evaluate his value wantonly.

No matter how much impact Zhai Yanlin's Three Outlooks were, Cheng Yujin continued to calculate with her fingers firmly: "if Zhai er's wife is right, the title of family property in the future government will belong to Zhai Qing. That is to say, I have worked hard for 20 or 30 years to raise my son for others, but I can't get the big reward. Why should I raise my son for others. Even if I have a son, I can't inherit the government. Why should I risk my life and lose my beauty to have a child? If I take a step back, no matter how well the housekeeper is in charge, these properties will not belong to me in the future. Why should I spend all my efforts to accumulate wealth for others? "

Cheng Yujin pointed three fingers at Zhai Yanlin and said, "Cai Guogong can't provide me with money, power and comfort. Why do you marry me? "

Zhai Yanlin recovered his ability to speak for a long time: "you You are simply deviant. A woman should be gentle and gentle. She will teach her husband and children without asking for anything in return. How can you keep your interests in your mouth? "

But Cheng Yujin was very impatient and said, "Duke Cai, I think you are also a senior official of the powerful side. I just want to tell you the truth. Now that we are cooperating, we should show our sincerity and do something with the nonsense of kindness, justice, gentleness and politeness. I can bring you at least 30 years of peace and order in the government. If you want me to take care of old lady Zhai and correct Zhai Qing, you have to increase your chips. This is my value. What about you? What can you bring me? "

Cheng Yujin talked with him about his marriage in the same tone as business. Zhai Yanlin was not unfamiliar with such talks. On the contrary, he used such a way of interest exchange and mutual exploration to communicate with many people in the DPRK. If you put it in the court or in the army, Zhai Yanlin likes people who show their needs and prices as soon as they go on the stage, but when it comes to marriage

Zhai Yanlin really can't adapt. Cheng Yujin, like a sharp knife with no feelings, mercilessly cuts the black cloth that he has covered his eyes and puts the bloody truth in front of him.

Yes, are those women just interested in him? Wealth, power and status are indispensable.

He has always been deceiving himself. He thinks that his extraordinary martial arts and charisma have attracted many women's hearts. However, which one of his concubines, or even his former wife, did not consider the status of the government or the future wealth when he followed him? They all want to have a son and divide up his property.Zhai Yanlin just never thought about it. In this way, he maintained his ridiculous and tough male self-esteem, and lived with self-confidence for half his life. But at this moment, when Cheng Yujin put all her interests on the table, Zhai Yanlin found that her self-confidence was vulnerable. In Cheng Yujin's calm, rational and emotionless language, she collapsed.

When he changed to the negotiation mode in the court, Zhai Yanlin found that he could not come up with anything. Zhai Yanlin stagnated for a long time and said dryly, "if you become my future wife, I will be very kind to you. You can mention gold, silver and jewelry freely..."

Cheng Yujin gave a slight smile. Her voice was not big, but the smile clearly came to Zhai Yanlin's ears.

Zhai Yanlin felt indescribable embarrassment.

Talking about feelings at the negotiation table is undoubtedly not on the table.

"Mr. Cai, your feelings are worthless to me. What can you offer me? "

Zhai Yanlin is speechless. Cheng Yujin didn't expect him to answer, so she went on: "you can't offer me any benefits, whether it is now or expected. Why do people like you marry me? Why should I be stuck in the garden? "

Your feelings are nothing to me. This sentence seemed to hit Zhai Yanlin in the face with the last and most fatal blow. Zhai Yanlin's male self-esteem suffered a great blow, but he was speechless because it was a fact.

Many women in the world may be soft hearted, but Cheng Yujin obviously won't. Her husband's kindness to her is meaningless. She wants money and power, but not him.

Zhai Yanlin, like a poor boy, stands in front of the woman he loves, at a loss. He watched Cheng Yujin turn to leave, silent and depressed, and did not look away for a long time.
