Chapter 50 Provocation
Cheng Xiangjin entered Pan Xiuying's yard.Aunt Pan was sitting in front of the mirror in a daze. With Cheng Yu gone, she didn't have to be trembling and respectful every day for fear of offending him.But why does she still feel unhappy?
"Mom! Father and the others have left."

"Just leave, it's not like I won't come back." Aunt Pan said calmly.

"Mom, are you going to let Cheng Haitang go? Her father and elder brother are not here, and she has no backer. Let's see how proud she can be!" Xiang Jin said unceremoniously, "When Cheng Haitang didn't come back, my grandmother obviously said she would If I pass under the name of the eldest lady, then I am the legitimate lady, have you forgotten?"

But Aunt Pan said: "What's the good of being the daughter of a dead man? It would be better if those two brothers and sisters are dead, so your father won't help me straight because he is worried about them." After saying that, she licked it with a grate as if nothing had happened. Pursing the hair at the temples.

"Mom!" Xiang Jin said nervously, "Are you serious? Even my eldest brother..."

"You saw when he came back this time, Cheng Hanbai didn't regard me as an elder at all!" Aunt Pan threw the grate on the dressing table and made a loud voice: "Their brothers and sisters all regard me as their mother's murderer! Since In this way, I don’t have to leave a disaster for myself!”

"Then what are we going to do?" Xiang Jin was nervous and excited.

"Don't worry, my daughter. Everything in the Cheng family will belong to us from now on." Aunt Pan looked at her daughter with a smile: "Your surname is also Cheng, you have the right to get it all."

Xiang Jin nodded with longing.

"Your father has just left. Let that wild girl dance around for a while. Slowly she will know who has the final say in this mansion." Aunt Pan showed off her mistress-like style and sat down on the Grand Master's chair: " Jin'er, your grandmother is very sad today, why don't you come over and talk to your grandmother?"

Xiang Jin immediately understood what her mother meant, laughed dryly, got up and walked towards her grandmother's yard.Yes, her grandmother watched her grow up and always loved her. That wild girl has only been back for more than two months, so where can she kiss her?
Xiang Jin put away the smile on her face and walked into her grandmother's room pretending to be gloomy: "Grandma, my father has already led the team away! He asked me to take good care of you before leaving." After saying that, she sat down next to her grandmother. Next to her, she rested her head on her grandmother's shoulder.Sure enough, her grandmother hugged her and shed a few more tears.

"Su Lan, go get a basin of water for grandma, and I'll cleanse her face."

Sulan responded and went out to pour water.

"Grandma, didn't eldest sister come to see you? When I came in just now, I reminded her that she wanted to come and see you. You are the saddest when your father goes out to march and fight. Didn't she... come?" Xiang Jin said softly.

"Alas! Your eldest sister grew up in the mountains. She has no motherly upbringing, and it is normal for her to be ignorant. Later, you can help me call Aunt Liu, and I will give her some advice." Aunt Liu is the nun assigned to Haitang by her grandmother. ma.

"Yes, grandmother."

Sulan fetched water, and she helped Xiangjin roll up her sleeves. Xiangjin then took a piece of facecloth and rinsed it in the water, wrung out the water, and cleaned the old lady's face.

"Miss Xiang Jin is the most considerate!" Su Lan said with a smile.

The old lady smiled and nodded, and said: "Su Mei, go get my set of ruby ​​​​headbands and let Sister Jin wear them. The Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet will be in a month, and Sister Jin will need it!" "

"Grandma, you are laughing at me again! My mother is my aunt, how can I go to the palace banquet? If my mother doesn't go, I can't go either..." Xiang Jin was so aggrieved that she almost cried. "Silly boy, your grandmother is a second-grade imperial concubine. How can she take her granddaughter to a palace banquet and still be unable to walk?" the old lady comforted her.

"Really? Grandma!" Xiang Jin was surprised and happy, hugging her grandmother and not letting go: "You are so good to me!"

"Sulan, go tell the eldest girl and ask her to prepare early."

Xiang Jin only thought that it would be best if she could enter the palace. Besides, Haitang's adoptive mother was going to take her to the palace, so she had nothing to worry about.

It would be great if Cheng Haitang couldn't enter the palace during the Mid-Autumn Festival!Xiang Jin had a sweet dream: It is my dream to see the crown prince and the prince in the palace!Maybe the prince is thinking of me?No, I have to get two new sets of clothes cut!

Cheng Xiangjin said goodbye to her grandmother and hurried to her mother's yard. She wanted her mother to prepare her in a decent way, making it unforgettable for those men!
At this time, she had already forgotten her father and elder brother, and she was only thinking about how to show off at the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet, and it would be best to make Cheng Haitang look ugly!Then she will have no future.

But Haitang didn't know this, she was lying on the recliner, her mind was full of why did her father take brother Mingze to the border?Did something happen at the border?I don't know if I can see Xie San again, he must know the answer.

After thinking about it, she fell asleep on the recliner. Ji'er covered her with a blanket, closed most of the window facing the recliner, closed the door and went out.In the eldest girl's room, Ji'er is in charge and Shuang'er is in charge. Now there are three girls. Huaping and Liuying know how to make medicine. Naturally, they will follow Ji'er to take care of the girl's daily life and help her make medicines and meals. Ruyi will follow Shuang'er. Take care of things outside.

Ji'er divided the work for everyone according to the girl's wishes, and then let the three of them go separately to understand the specific things.Yu Lang is relatively simple. He lives in the outer courtyard and is always available.

The master is not at home, so everyone is eating in their own rooms.Haitang was still awake at dinner time, and Ji'er didn't call her. He only asked Huaping to warm the food until the girl woke up.

It was getting dark.

Haitang vaguely heard a slight sound from the window, and felt a figure with a hint of cool breeze sitting in front of her. It was a familiar smell. Haitang did not open her eyes, but she smiled at the corner of her mouth.

"What delicious food did you dream about? You can laugh even in your sleep." It was Xie Ruitan's warm voice.

"I'm already hungry!" Haitang sat up and looked at Xie Ruitan and smiled.There was no lamp in the room, only the faint moonlight shone in from the window. The July moon was almost full.Xie Ruitang ruffled her hair: "Since I haven't eaten, why don't I take you out to eat? I didn't eat much in the palace today, and I'm hungry too. Please stay with me."

"Then I'll ask someone to come in and hold a lamp to comb your hair."

Just about to speak, Xie Ruitang covered her mouth with his hand: "Wait a minute." He held her face in his hands, the eyes of both of them were bright in the darkness, Xie Ruitang smiled, and kissed her lightly Her forehead said: "I'll wait for you outside, just open the window and call me." After saying that, she went out from the window like a gust of wind.

Haitang wanted to stop him and ask, how could she go out with him?
