Traveling to ancient times to sweep the catering industry

Chapter 79 Waiting for her to figure it out

"In the future, you should build a good relationship with Wenwen. Who knows, they might be able to be transferred to the capital!"

Mrs. Cheng Er saw her daughter was lost in thought, so she nudged her and asked, "Did you hear that?"

Cheng Jinxiu said unhappily, "Why should I have a good relationship with him? Didn't she say that it's unlikely that she will be transferred back to the capital."

Madam Cheng II did not believe it and said, "Wenwen is always like this. She won't tell us anything. I think she will be transferred back. Otherwise, why buy a house in the capital? It will cost a lot of money and effort, but she won't live in it for many times. Even if the house in the capital is poor, it will cost at least several hundred or even a thousand taels of silver. This is not a small amount of money. It is inevitable that you have to think twice before spending so much money."

Cheng Jinxiu felt even more unhappy when she thought about it.

If she marries cousin Zhao in the future, she might live a tight life and have to make a living under the control of her mother-in-law. It's nothing like Cheng Wenwen, who takes care of the household expenses by herself, doesn't have parents-in-law, and her husband treats her well.

With this comparison, Cheng Jinxiu felt as if a jar of vinegar had been overturned in her heart. She felt so sour and regretful.

No, she doesn't want to marry Cousin Zhao anymore.

Mrs. Cheng had no idea what her daughter was thinking, but she couldn't help but become curious: "I wonder where they bought the house? Let's go take a look when we have time."

"Don't go!"

Cheng Jinxiu walked away angrily.

Mrs. Cheng Er looked at her like that, snorted and didn't bother to care about her, just kept muttering: "What a pity, what a pity!"

Mrs. Cheng left with regret.

……

Cheng Wenwen moved into the new house. Although some places in the house were not perfect, it was her home after all and she felt comfortable no matter how she stayed there.

The small house with two entrances was not very big, so she hired two maids to clean the house, two servants, and two cooks. Finally, with Pei'er and her mother to keep her company, it was not lonely at all.

only……

Cheng Wenwen looked at Pei'er and asked, "Where is Mother He? Why can't I see her?"

Pei'er said, "Mother He seemed to be going to meet a friend, so she went out and asked me to tell you, young lady."

Cheng Wenwen nodded without thinking too much. After all, who doesn't have friends? It must be because she just happened to move out of the Cheng family. Without so many rules, He's mother felt more comfortable.

Cheng Wenwen is certainly not a demanding leader. Mother He usually does things properly and thoughtfully, so she is willing to give her a day off.

However, Cheng Wenwen did not expect that Mother He was not going to meet any friends, but was called away by Old Madam Cheng.

Mother He was at the Cheng Mansion at the moment. Facing the questions from Old Madam Cheng, she was very hesitant. She didn't know whether to say it or not. If she said it, she would be sorry to the young lady. If she didn't say it, she would be sorry to the old lady.

Although she is an elder person beside the old lady, she also has selfish motives. She is now following the young lady and her life is indeed comfortable. She is also the person in charge beside the young lady. If she betrays the young lady, she is afraid that she will be disliked by her.

Although she could return to the old lady, even if she did, her status with the old lady could not compare to that of Ying's mother.

So, Mother He was very hesitant at this moment.

"Mother He, why are you so stunned? The old lady is asking you a question! Just answer it!"

"Yes... Madam, the young lady and her husband have a good relationship, you really don't have to worry!" Mother He still chose to hide the truth from the young lady.

The old lady snorted and said, "Stop fooling me! Tell the truth! If they really have a good relationship, how could you let her stay in the capital alone!"

As a newlywed couple, it's time for you to spend your sweet time together. How could you bear to separate at this time? It could only be that something went wrong!

Old Madam Cheng felt that Qi Shuo was not someone who was difficult to get along with! The problem must be with Cheng Wenwen.

Old Madam Cheng asked Mother He, "Tell me the truth. You have been with her for so long. What is her attitude towards this marriage? Is she willing to live a good life with her son-in-law?"

"Don't fool me with lies!"

Just when Mother He was about to speak, the old lady snorted coldly, stopping her from thinking of the words.

Mother He looked at the old lady like this and realized that she could not be fooled anymore.

But the young lady repeatedly warned her not to tell the old lady about the separation. If she told the old lady, the old lady would definitely not let the young lady do that.

Mother He thought about it, and then followed the old lady's words and said, "The old lady is right. In fact, there are indeed some problems in the relationship between the young lady and the son-in-law."

"What's going on? Tell me clearly!"

"That's it! There are many concubines in the son-in-law's house, and the young lady doesn't like them, so she asked the general to drive them away. Then they had a few quarrels, and the young lady didn't want to go back with the general, saying that they had to be driven away before she went back!"

Mother He was panicking, fearing that the old lady would not believe the reason she had come up with on the spur of the moment.

Unexpectedly, when Mrs. Cheng heard this reason, she actually believed it.

"I see... that's exactly what that girl would do!"

Old Madam Cheng still knew Cheng Wenwen a little bit. She remembered that once, she seemed dissatisfied with the fact that a man had three wives and four concubines, and she even said something that was against the moral code. At that time, she advised her not to have such unconventional ideas.

It is normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines, and there is no reason for his wife to restrict him from taking concubines, otherwise she will be accused of being narrow-minded.

At that time, she had advised her, but she did not agree with her at all and even talked back to her. Later, she punished her by making her copy the "Rules for Women".

In the end, she seemed to have really become more docile, and never said such remarks in front of me again.

"So, she is still like this!"

Mother He nodded: "That's it."

Old Madam Cheng sighed, not knowing how to change her mind.

She had no choice but to continue asking Mother He: "Then, what did the uncle say?"

"Uncle... is a little angry."

"So the uncle was driven away by her?"

"That's not true, my uncle really has something to do!"

Mother He was very nervous! If she asked again, she was afraid that she would not be able to cover up her lie.

"Okay, I understand, you can go down now!"

Mother He raised her eyes slightly, a little puzzled. Why don't you continue asking?

Do you really believe what you say?

Mother He left doubtfully, and indeed no one called her.

Old Madam Cheng didn't know how to deal with the matter. After all, she was her own granddaughter. But this was obviously her fault. Even if she wanted to drive away those concubines, she shouldn't have said it. It was a pity that my son-in-law didn't tell this matter to others for judgment, otherwise she would have been spit on by everyone.

"Madam, what should we do about this?" asked Ying's mother.

Madam Cheng sighed and said, "Wait a minute! Maybe the girl will calm down and go back after she has figured it out."

Mother Ying doesn't think so. After so many years, the fourth young lady still hasn't figured it out. She still didn't figure it out after getting married. Now that they are living apart, how can she figure it out?
