The World of Peace in the Red Mansion

Now that she had an answer, she was not in a hurry and naturally let it go first.Xingzhou went back to the things of the past few days, and explained some things in Cheng Xiao's room to Zijuan and the others.But it shows that she no longer cares about the affairs of the room, and she will not go to Cheng Xiao in leisure time.

This action made Zijuan's original warning dissipate a lot, but he didn't dare to let go of his heart because he didn't understand the situation.

It was not until the evening break that Cheng Xiao told the whole story about the boat trip. In fact, it can be regarded as a clichéd story.Qu Zhi counted that Xingzhou had been with Cheng Xiao for ten years. Xingzhou was originally from everyone, but the family ransacked the house due to a crime. She was young at the time, and her mother was a close friend with Cheng Xiao's mother. When they arrived at Cheng's house, it was a pity that Cheng Xiao's mother threw herself into the lake and committed suicide. Cheng's house was in chaos and no one could take care of her.However, it was precisely because of Xingzhou's arrival that he saved Cheng Xiao who was seriously ill at the time. If Xingzhou hadn't knocked open the door, most of these people who were so busy and dazed would not have realized that their young master was dying of illness.Xingzhou is Cheng Xiao's savior, but even so, the identity of the criminal minister's daughter cannot be erased, and the disputes involving the court are hard to say.

Because of Xing Zhou, he stayed and stayed by his side. At first, he thought that the two children would be together, and after a few years, he would see if he could change his identity for her, but he never thought about Xing Zhou. As a maidservant, she never said anything else, but it was hard for everyone to say much.

After all these years of messing around like this, Xingzhou said she was a maid beside Cheng Xiao, but in fact she was like a manager. Whether Cheng Xiao was in the palace or the palace, she should be the one who took care of everything in the mansion very properly.

After hearing this, Daiyu naturally sighed for Xingzhou, but the good lady is like this now. "Now are Xingzhou's parents?"

Cheng Xiao was embracing Daiyu at the moment, seeing her frowned slightly, he naturally stretched out his hand to soothe her. Hearing her question, he said softly: "The Ruan family was confiscated and exiled, Aunt Zhang died on the way, and Master Ruan passed away. She also died of illness a year later. When I had spare time, I helped her inquire about the whereabouts of the rest of the Ruan family, but at that time there was no one in the Ruan family."

Losing a family member in this way, Rao Daiyu had heard that the exile was extremely painful, but she never thought it would be like this, how uncomfortable it would be to sail.Daiyu's heart is soft and she naturally feels pity for Xingzhou.

Cheng Xiao just patted her on the back to comfort her. In fact, he didn't fully explain some things. The Ruan family's house was ransacked and his father died in battle in the same year, and what else could be called that year besides this incident? A senior member of the second rank ended up in exile with all his families ransacked. Xingzhou's father, the head of the Ruan family at that time was the Minister of the Ministry of War.But he didn't intend to let Daiyu know about these things, the grievances of the previous generation have long since ended, and as for sailing boats, it probably won't be long.

When Daiyu learned about Xingzhou's life experience, she was naturally hesitant about how to deal with it properly. Cheng Xiao only comforted her and said, "You don't need to think too much, just do the usual thing. Xingzhou is very clear about the affairs of the mansion, just ask her to sit for you." an assistant."

In fact, Daiyu may not have realized that Cheng Xiao was hiding something, what kind of serious crime would harm the innocent young girl, and even the Cheng family could not be saved, so she could only leave Xingzhou as a maid without saying a word .Physically, she still has the grace to save Cheng Xiao's life. If there is no reason for this, Cheng Xiao's temperament will definitely not be just like this.

It's a pity that Cheng Xiao didn't want to say that she couldn't force her to ask, so she could only keep her doubts in her heart.

The next day, Cheng Xiao recruited several internal and external stewards in the entire family, and handed over the power of housekeeper to Daiyu in front of everyone.Although Cheng Guogong's mansion has not had a mistress for a long time, the old and young masters are not soft-hearted. Although the old Cheng Guogong does not care about world affairs and is not interested in the court, it does not mean that he is really incompetent, and the people below dare not Play tricks on this.

Not to mention the eldest son, after Cheng Xiao returned to the mansion, Cheng Guogong handed over the affairs of the mansion to him. He had a few outbursts, and everyone became honest when they saw the Duke and didn't ask.

Up to now, he didn't dare to say anything in front of Cheng Xiao. He promised that he would listen to his orders well, but we have to wait and see what's going on inside.It's not that Daiyu didn't take care of her family, so she naturally understood that everything should not be rushed.

After the people dispersed, Cheng Xiao smiled and said, "You didn't think too much about it, you can take your time with this matter in the mansion."

Daiyu smiled and said, "I know." A servant came to report that someone was asking to see him, but Cheng Xiao frowned slightly and went out anyway, and asked Daiyu to wait for him to eat together.

When he got married, His Majesty gave him half a month's vacation, so during this period of time he didn't have to go to court or have other things to do, he just wanted to spend time with Daiyu.It's just that it's not a trivial matter to come here at this moment, otherwise such a winless person who came here on the third day of their wedding really doesn't know what to say.

Cheng Xiao slandered in his heart, and when he saw the visitor, he became even more displeased. "If you can't say anything today, don't blame me for being thrown out." The sinister words made Shen Jinyu smile helplessly.

Cheng Xiaodu's expression was very wrong, and then he put away his dissatisfied expression and said in surprise: "So what's the matter, calling our Zhuangyuan Lang like this?"

Shen Jinyu sat down casually, but she couldn't hide the disappointment in her eyes, and she didn't intend to hide it and said, "I'm a little bored, so I came to talk to you." This statement was clearly untrue, and Cheng Xiao sized him up, but he didn't force it.

The servant girl brought the tea lightly, and Cheng Xiao calmly held up the cup and left him in no hurry, just waiting for Shen Jinyu to speak.

Shen Jinyu didn't know what to think, she didn't drink the tea, but just absent-mindedly stirred the tea with the lid of the cup.After a long time, he said: "There is something I would like to ask for your help."

Seeing that he was finally able to speak, Cheng Xiao raised his brows slightly and said, "It's okay if you just say it, if I can do my best, I will do my best." This is not a lie, let alone that Shen Jinyu has helped him, even if he hasn't, with their relationship, as long as they can Help naturally will not shirk.

Seeing what Cheng Xiao said, Shen Jinyu finally showed a little smile on his face and said, "There is a missing prefecture in Yunnan, and I want to make up for it."

"What? You're crazy!" Cheng Xiao never thought that he would say this. A good capital city doesn't wait to go to that remote place. What kind of place is Yunnan, where clouds and dragons are mixed, and most of them go to those who are excluded, or even exiled. The place of distribution.Shen Jinyu was born as the No. [-] scholar, and now she is also highly appreciated by the emperor, so don't go there because she has a bright future.

Cheng Xiao calmed down and suddenly thought of something: "You are because of it?" Wei Wei's words could not be uttered, no matter what the reasons for the failure of the two marriages at the beginning, they could not avoid his reasons, so he couldn't say these words no matter what. Can't say it.

"Where do you want to go!" Shen Jinyu frowned and said seriously: "I have already stated that Yu'er is just my sister, nothing else. If you don't believe me, I will never come to the door in the future."

Cheng Xiao shook his head and said, "You said I would believe it naturally, but you suddenly want to leave now?"

Shen Jinyu sighed and said, "If I don't make it clear, I'm afraid you won't help me. My mother has been planning a marriage for me these days." Thinking of the unrest these days, Shen Jinyu has a sad face.The relationship between him and his mother has indeed deteriorated because of the marriage, and now his mother has become more and more leftist, and can't listen to anything. If he is really a dutiful son, he should probably act according to his mother's wishes now, but unfortunately he really doesn't care. Willing to go against my heart.

"You don't want to marry a wife?" Cheng Xiao frowned and said with some uncertainty.

"No!" Shen Jinyu said lightly, "I have been successful in my life. In the eyes of others, my family background is not bad. The praise of everyone is insincere. Even if it is not true, I am a little self-confident in my heart. But looking at it now, I find that I am really There is nothing to be proud of. I want to go out and have a look when I am young."

This is the truth?Cheng Xiao didn't ask.Shen Jinyu wanted to go to Yunnan, but the Shen family would never agree, so he needed someone's help, but it was a question of whether he wanted to help.

"You are really giving me a problem!" Cheng Xiao smiled wryly.If he really helped this time, what would the Shen family think of it, because there was something in the past that caused him to become a villain.

Shen Jinyu also felt embarrassed and said: "I also know how wrong this is, but there is really nothing I can do now."

Daiyu sent Cheng Xiao away, and only asked someone to bring in the account books from previous years. She wanted to check the situation first, and it was Xing Zhou who sent the account books.

Because of yesterday's words, Daiyu will inevitably show traces when she looks at Xingzhou now, and Xingzhou feels Daiyu's eyes return a smile.

Daiyu also felt embarrassed, and hurriedly turned back, but she didn't want to sail and said suddenly: "Young mistress must have heard the prince mention my matter." The determined tone made it difficult for Daiyu to hide it, so she put down the account book in her hand and said solemnly: "It is true. I heard Yun Zhao mention it, but Sister Xingzhou minds."

Xingzhou shook his head slightly and said softly: "The young mistress and the son are husband and wife, so naturally you shouldn't hide anything. I think the young mistress still seems to be in doubt, so you can ask directly. I know that there is nothing I can't mention."

Daiyu didn't know how to open her mouth so openly and said, "I don't have anything to do, I will ask Sister Xingzhou to teach me more."

Xing Zhou smiled and said: "Young Mistress, there is no need to be like this." After speaking, he looked at Zijuan who was a little shocked, his eyes drooped slightly, and then said: "May I have a talk with you, Young Mistress?"

Daiyu didn't understand what he meant, but she didn't refuse in the end, she made a gesture with her eyes, and Zijuan hurriedly backed out.

When only two people met each other, Xingzhou Fang continued: "I am afraid that according to Shizi's temperament, he may not tell young mistress everything. But young mistress, don't get me wrong, Shizi is not trying to hide it from you, but just talking about old things." I'm afraid it won't do any good."

"Since it's an old story, why do you want to tell me?" Daiyu raised her eyebrows and asked lightly.

"Because I don't want anyone to provoke this matter in the future." Xing Zhou replied.

Seeing that Daiyu has no objection, Xingzhou slowly tells the story of the year. In fact, there is not much way out from what Cheng Xiao said, but there are more reasons why the Ruan family was convicted.

Daiyu silently listened to the doubts in her heart and got the answer, but she looked at Xingzhou, but her gaze was a little hesitant. She didn't know why Xingzhou said it so clearly, and she didn't even know what her purpose was, just to tell herself how much they used to be. Intimacy, leaning on each other in his toughest times?
