Jade Without Fragrance

  Chapter 35 People are not as good as donkeys

  Cheng Shu sat upright on the small stalk, posing as a listening gesture.

  The old lady smiled and said, "It's more casual at Grandma's place."

  Cheng Shu laughed: "It's always been casual, just curious if you have anything to ask me."

   "Shu'er is also nineteen this year, right?"

   "Yes." Cheng Shu's heart moved when he heard the old lady asking about his age.

  Could it be that the old lady is going to tell him his daughter-in-law?

  Thinking of this possibility, Cheng Shu was excited.

   Calm, calm, can't let the old lady see that he is in a hurry.

   The old lady sighed softly: "Time is so fast, you were only three years old when your father went out."

   Cheng Shu's mother died in childbirth when he was born, so Cheng Zhiyuan took Cheng Shu to the general's mansion, and entrusted his stepmother, the old lady, to take care of him. After that, Cheng Zhiyuan did not resume the string again, and when Cheng Shu was three years old, he went out to travel.

   Over the years, Cheng Zhiyuan has returned to the capital only a few times, and occasionally there will be letters.

   "It's pretty fast." Cheng Shu was a little nervous.

  The old lady is going to tell him that he is right, but I don't know which girl she likes...

"Your father's last letter was more than a year ago, and he asked grandmother to pay attention to your marriage." Speaking of which, the old lady's expression was a little gloomy, "but your grandfather went away soon, and this was delayed. Now."

   "Grandmother, I'm not in a hurry-" Seeing the old lady like this, Cheng Shu felt a little uncomfortable.

The old lady resumed her smile: "You are not in a hurry, grandmother is in a hurry. You, Chan'er and Ah Hao are not too young, so it is time to hurry up the marriage. Grandma called you here, just to ask, how do you feel about Chan'er? ?"

   "Big sister?" Cheng Shu opened his mouth slightly, and was suddenly replaced by shock.

   Cheng Shu's reaction made the old lady frown secretly.

   This is not like a surprise.

   "Big sister... Big sister is very good..." After recovering, Cheng Shu made up for it in embarrassment.

When something happened to her daughter, the old lady was at her most sensitive, seeing Cheng Shu so sternly: "Shu'er, grandmother always treats you as her grandson, and she wants to match you and Chan'er because she looks good at you. .But you mustn't go against your will for some messy reason."

   She understands Shu'er's disposition, and there is nothing wrong with asking him to marry Chan'er, but what she is happy to see is that he wants to marry from the heart.

  Cheng Shu couldn't sit still, and moved his body on the little dick: "Grandmother, I really think the eldest sister is very good—"

  The old lady interrupted him: "Chan'er is very good. It doesn't need to be said. Are you happy with Chan'er? If not, you nod your head to delay the two of you."

  Cheng Shu understood what the old lady meant.

   He was silent for a moment, then honestly confessed his thoughts: "Xu is too familiar with the eldest sister, I have always regarded the eldest sister as my own sister..."

  The old lady smiled: "What kind of girl does the tree like, tell my grandmother, and my grandmother will keep an eye on you."

   Having said this, Cheng Shu's face thickened, and he opened his mouth and said, "First of all, you must be very good-looking, not too aggressive, not too quiet, not petty, not rough-hearted, not..."

  The old lady listened silently, her expression distorted for a moment.

   What swan meat is this **** thinking about!

   After talking about a cup of tea, Cheng Shu stopped and showed an embarrassed smile: "Grandma, am I asking too much?"

  The old lady smiled: "Not tall at all."

   Turning his head, Mrs. Lin came over and asked the old lady Cheng Shu what she meant. The old lady sighed: "I think Shu'er is still a child. Let's talk about marriage after two years."

   At that time, Wanqing should be able to completely get rid of the shadow of Wen Rugui, and the marriage of the **** should be left to the daughter to worry about.

  The next day, Cheng Shu went to Wen Mansion full of energy.

   In just a few days, the servants on Wen Rugui's side almost dispersed, and the rest were either Lin's roommate, or the people who were brought from the General's Mansion two days ago to stare at Wen Rugui.

   "All checked?"

   A person who looked like a manager said: "Young master, don't worry, he has checked everything. The total value of the items that Mr. Wen took away does not exceed half of his salary."

  Cheng Shu sneered: "It's cheaper for him."

   Even if he has never experienced the sufferings of the world, he knows how good the life of his aunt's family has been in these years. With Wen Rugui's salary, let alone half of it, it will not be enough for a month's expenses.

   But the old lady said, don't do anything absolutely, this is not for warmth, but the rule of the general's mansion.

   In short, Wen Rugui is a beast with a human face and an animal heart.

  Cheng Shu did not blink, staring at Wen Rugui leaving the Wen residence with the two carriages.

"close the door!"

   As he shouted, the black gas pedal slammed shut, completely isolating the relationship between this expansive mansion and the Wen family.

  Cheng Shu instructed his servants to put the treasures away, and walked to the General's Mansion with ease.

"come here."

   Wen Ping, the steward who was hovering in the corner, saw Cheng Shu waving at him, hesitated and walked over.

  Cheng Shu frowned and looked at Wen Ping: "I look at you strangely familiar."

  Wen Ping squeezed out a cautious smile: "The villain is the steward of the Wen family—"

   "Oh, I remembered, you are Wen Rugui's manager." Cheng Shu's face sank, "Tell me, what's the bad idea?"

  Wen Ping has seen him many times, and he hasn't cleaned his beard for a long time, but he didn't recognize him.

   "Young Master Biao is joking, how dare a villain make a bad idea." Wen Ping bent over and lowered his voice.

   For the past two days, he didn't dare to go back to the mansion, and when he thought of the dark prospect, how could he still have the spirit of being the chief steward of the Shilang mansion.

   "Then why are you sneaking around here?"

   "Little man—" Wen Ping hesitated.

  Cheng Shu glared: "Don't make up nonsense with your grandfather, believe it or not, I'll arrest you!"

   "Master Biao, don't be angry, don't be angry." Wen Ping knew that this was a scare word.

   It's not Jin Linwei, you can say that if you arrest someone, you can arrest someone, but if they really want to deal with him as a small person, it's easy.

  Wen Ping glanced left and right, and whispered, "The villain is here to find the second girl."

   He was worried that the gate of the General's Mansion was difficult to enter, and he couldn't see the second girl. It would be good to have this cousin to pass on a message.

  Cheng Shu's face turned completely cold: "Are you looking for Ah Hao?"

   It's not that he misunderstood. The former head of Wen's house was looking for a girl who was raised in a deep boudoir. What else could it be if he wasn't looking for trouble?

   Wen Ping's scalp was numb, and he had an idea: "It's the second girl looking for the villain."

   Under Cheng Shu's suspicious eyes, Wen Ping vowed: "It's really the second girl who has something to do with the villain. If the cousin doesn't believe it, go and ask the second girl. If the villain tells a lie, you will arrest me."

   "Then wait, if you dare to lie to me, you will be beautiful!"

  Cheng Shu entered the General's Mansion and went directly to Luoying Residence.

   Lin Hao's residence in the General's Mansion is also called Luoying Residence.

  When Cheng Shu walked in, Lin Hao was feeding Lin Xiaohua to eat grass in the yard, Baozhu held a bamboo fan, and he fanned Lin Hao and Lin Xiaohua for a while.

  Cheng Shu took a deep look at Lin Xiaohua and thought that this donkey should live a more comfortable life than Wen.
