After rebirth, the Prime Minister's wife always wanted to leave her father behind and keep her
Chapter 14 Poor Chu Chu
Cheng Wanxin's expression changed for a moment, and then she smiled as usual and said, "I only hope that my sister can come and see me again."
Cheng Songan nodded with a smile.
Feng was not good at hiding her emotions, nor could she conceal her thoughts. She asked a few questions in a blunt manner, such as how she had eaten and slept in the past two days, and what was wrong with her.
Cheng Wanxin was about to cry and said, "Thank you mother for your concern. Wanxin feels much better now. I will go to pay my respects to father and mother tomorrow."
Feng said coldly, "That's not necessary. You should recuperate for a few more days. I have never restricted you sisters from visiting each other every morning and evening. Let's talk about it when you are fully recovered."
Cheng Wanxin choked up and said, "My daughter is not in good health. She has caused me more trouble than my sisters. Every time I think of her, I feel uneasy. Why not let my aunt share some of the burden for me?"
As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes, making her look very lovable. Cheng Songan looked towards Lu Qingshan quietly, hoping that he would immediately feel pity and a desire to protect her, and preferably would never forget Cheng Wanxin.
But Lu Qingshan didn't even look at her. He just followed Feng politely, looking quite impatient.
Cheng Songan was very helpless. No wonder he was defeated by Cui Yuanqing in his previous life. It was too late for him to realize this. Such a pitiful beauty had tears in her eyelashes, but he was indifferent.
She shook her head and heard Feng's cold voice: "Your aunt is not in good health, how can you let her take care of you? Is it because the maids are not good enough? If you are not satisfied with them, I will replace them with two for you."
Cheng Wanxin had already lost two of her trusted confidants as punishment. Although the remaining Zhu Ying and Xiang Cheng were not as good as Dan Ruo and Qing Guo, they were still used by her. If she replaced them again, she would really have no one left to rely on.
She said quickly, "They are fine, mother, don't worry. I just miss my aunt out of selfishness."
Feng snorted calmly, "Then when Aunt Shen gets better, let her come over to see you."
Cheng Wanxin was delighted and said, "Thank you, mother."
Feng's face was not looking good. Lin quietly pulled her sleeves. Feng continued to pretend to be kind and smiled, saying, "I have discussed it with your father. You will be sixteen after your birthday this year. When you are better, I will arrange a marriage for you."
Cheng Wanxin was horrified, and she was not pretending. Her eyes were clearly in a panic. She was originally sitting, but now she could not sit still any longer. She stood up and said to Feng: "Mother, my daughter is just about to reach the age of marriage, so there is no need to rush this matter. Besides, my elder sister is married now, and my third sister is still young. My daughter only hopes to serve you for a few more years."
Feng frowned impatiently.
Lin smiled and said, "Second Miss, you are off topic. Madam has raised children and taken care of them for half her life. Is it just for the girls to serve her? If so, wouldn't it delay the girls' lives? How will Madam deal with it if people talk about it outside?"
Cheng Wanxin's face suddenly turned red.
"My aunt, you are too kind," Cheng Songan said jokingly, seeing that they were both speaking coldly, "My second sister is shy and is afraid that she won't be able to marry her ideal husband."
Cheng Wan said anxiously: "Big sister, it's not true..."
Cheng Songan interrupted her: "Don't be afraid, second sister. I'll let your brother-in-law look for you. I'll definitely choose someone with good looks, character, and family background."
She emphasized the words "your brother-in-law", and as expected, Cheng Wanxin's face changed and she tightened the handkerchief in her hand.
Cheng Songan smiled silently, and then said: "Otherwise, look at Brother Lu, the youngest scholar in the imperial court, who knows everything about him..."
"Cheng Yundai!" Lu Qingshan suddenly shouted in a deep voice, "Stop talking nonsense!"
Feng also said angrily: "Dai'er, you can't be so careless and joke around like you were when you were little."
She didn't want to marry a good man like Lu Qingshan to Cheng Wanxin.
Cheng Songan blinked his eyes and said, "What do you think? I'm saying that Minister Lu has already taken up a post in the six ministries and can help with the divination. How is this a joke?"
Feng and Lin smiled and shook their heads.
Lu Qingshan's face turned pale and he glared at Cheng Songan with gritted teeth.
Cheng Songan just thought he was inexplicable. Why should he be so angry when he was the one who acted as a matchmaker for him?
She ignored Lu Qingshan and hugged Cheng Wanxin's shoulders, saying, "Men should get married when they are old enough, and women should get married when they are old enough. Second sister, don't be shy anymore. Look, after the eldest sister got married, isn't she still the same as before at home?"
Cheng Wanxin stopped talking, but just bit her lower lip, looking sad, with tears in her eyes, beautiful and pitiful.
Cheng Songan looked at Lu Qingshan quietly again. She felt pity for such a beauty and she didn't believe that Lu Qingshan would not be moved.
Unexpectedly, as soon as her eyes met Lu Qingshan, he rolled his eyes at her with an extremely impatient look. He cupped his hands and said to Feng, "I see that my second sister is in good spirits, so I won't disturb her peace any more. I will go to the front to practice calligraphy with Yanping. Auntie, please stay with your two sisters for a while."
Feng felt that it was inconvenient for him to stay here, so she happily let him go. Then she said to Cheng Songan, "Yun Dai should go down too. I want to have a few private words with Wan Xin."
Cheng Songan knew that his mother wanted to remove him to save some face for Cheng Wanxin so as to avoid embarrassment when they returned home in the future, so he also took his leave.
As soon as she left, Feng couldn't pretend anymore and said coldly, "I won't expose your scandal in front of others, nor will I ask who that person is. Now I'm telling you clearly that I will arrange a marriage for you as soon as possible, and you have to marry whether you want to or not!"
Cheng Wanxin's face turned from red to white, and then she calmed down and said, "Yes, it's all up to mother."
Seeing how obedient she was, Feng was stunned for a moment, then she said a few more words and went back to her own yard.
Cheng Wanxin sat dejectedly on the ground, her well-behaved face turned sinister and fierce. She called Zhu Ying and ordered, "Go and inform Auntie quickly."
Zhu Ying hesitated and wanted to refuse her politely, but suddenly she met Cheng Wan's heart-breaking gaze and felt a chill in her heart.
Cheng Wanxin said quietly, "You followed me, and I have never treated you unfairly. If you feel that I am useless now and don't want to listen to my orders, I will follow you, but you have to think clearly about the consequences!"
Her voice wasn't high, and her tone wasn't harsh, but when she spoke, it gave people a chilling feeling.
Zhu Ying was so frightened that she immediately knelt on the ground and said repeatedly: "Miss, you misunderstood. I don't have that intention. I will go to Aunt Shen now."
Cheng Wanxin glared at her coldly.
……
Cheng Songan took Haitang out of the courtyard of Jingqiuzhai and not far away, they sat down in the pavilion on the south side of the courtyard. The pavilion was built high, and people coming and going could be seen from inside.
After she watched Feng and Lin go back, not long after, another person came out from the side door of Jingqiuzhai. It was Zhu Ying, who had changed into an inconspicuous set of clothes and hurried to Aunt Shen's yard.
Cheng Songan smiled and said to Haitang, "Look, my second sister probably doesn't want to get married, so she moved to be a military advisor."
Haitang asked, "Then Aunt Shen doesn't want the second young lady to get married?"
Cheng Songan replied, "She knows in her heart that if this hadn't happened, maybe her mother could have found a good marriage for her, but since this has happened, her mother only wants her to marry her far away. How could she be so picky? They, mother and daughter, don't look down on the sons of ordinary families."
Haitang nodded and continued, "Wouldn't Madam be worrying in vain? What if Aunt Shen's pillow talk makes Master and Madam estranged? What will we do?"
Cheng Songan asked her to come closer and whispered a few words to her, asking her to do it in person.
Haitang didn't understand what was going on, but she still ran over quickly.
Cheng Songan sat in the pavilion, looking around the garden where he grew up. He felt that nothing was more important than having his family by his side and being healthy.
She disdained to compete with Cheng Wanxin, but she could not allow the mother and daughter to harm her mother and Aunt Lin. She and Cui Yuanqing could not expect things to go smoothly!
It was a rare moment of silence. She leaned against the railing and became so absorbed in her thoughts that she fell asleep with her head tilted to one side.
A feather gently rubbed her face. She was sleeping soundly and brushed it away irritably. Unexpectedly, the feather turned around and rubbed the tip of her nose. Cheng Songan sneezed immediately and woke up.
This familiar feeling was like when she was in Yizhou, she and Lu Qingshan ran around the yard of the governor's mansion. When they were tired, they lay down in the shade of flowers to sleep. Lu Qingshan took a feather and deliberately tickled her, making her so angry that she couldn't sleep.
Cheng Songan blurted out: "Lu Xiaojiu! You want to be beaten!"
As soon as he said this, he suddenly realized that this was in his own garden, not in Yizhou.
She raised her eyes, but it was still Lu Qingshan holding a long feather, looking at her leisurely.
"So you haven't forgotten," Lu Qingshan said, smiling, "You remember those things in Yizhou, and you also remember me, Xingjiu."
Cheng Songan embarrassedly tidied his sleep-messy hair, sat up straight again, and said, "I vaguely remember it."
Lu Qingshan was playing with the feather, standing on the other side of the railing, quite a distance away from her, and didn't say anything.
Cheng Songan was somewhat uncomfortable with such silent solitude. Although this was in her own home and she didn't care about Cui Yuanqing's feelings, she hadn't been in contact with Lu Qingshan for two lifetimes. When they met for the first time, they felt so unfamiliar.
She asked awkwardly, "What do you think of my second sister?"
Lu Qingshan frowned, not realizing what she meant for a moment, and asked, "What?"
Cheng Songan explained: "Appearance, personality and so on."
Lu Qingshan: "Oh, I'm not familiar with her, I don't know her, so I won't judge her."
Cheng Songan was a little anxious. By the time you get to know each other better and fall in love with her, Cui Yuanqing would have already coaxed her into having a child.
She asked directly: "Do you like Second Sister like this?"
Lu Qingshan's face darkened: "I don't like it."
Cheng Songan: "Hmm? How could you not like it? You..."
I was just about to say that in your previous life, you fought with Cui Yuanqing for her, causing unrest in the court and the country, but before I even said it, I knew it was inappropriate.
But Lu Qingshan was obviously interested and asked, "What was it like before?"
