Chapter Thirty-Eight(1/2)

Zhou Lang hesitated for a moment in the courtyard.

He had sent snacks from Xuanmiao Temple last time. I wonder if she understood.

He hummed again thinking of this.

This woman is the most cunning, how could she not know!

"Ready your horse!" he shouted, raising his head and striding out.

"Why are you here again! My wife is asleep!"

In Yudaiqiao House, Brother Jin pushed the door with his hand and said.

"Why are you sleeping?" Zhou Lang shouted, and he kicked the door with his foot.

The thumping sound attracted all the maids, Banqin, to run out.

"What are you doing here again?" the maid asked with her arms akimbo and eyebrows raised.

"Let me ask you whether my snacks are suitable for you or not!" Zhou Lang shouted angrily.

What an excuse!

"Go and report to the official." The maid simply shouted.

"It doesn't matter. If people want to ask questions, I will answer them."

Cheng Jiaoniang's voice came from inside the house. The maid looked back and saw that she was kneeling in the hall at some point, slowly combing her hair.

Liu Lang did not enter the house, but stood on the porch and looked at Cheng Jiaoniang inside.

"Your father has already made an engagement for you," he said straight to the point.

When these words came out, both the maid and Banqin turned pale with surprise.

"Where is your father?" Cheng Jiaoniang's expression remained unchanged, she put down the comb in her hand and asked.

This means that the Zhou family will never allow the Cheng family to make decisions...

"My father hasn't been found yet." Saturday Lang said with a sullen face.

"I believe he will find someone soon." Cheng Jiaoniang said.

No matter what he said, Zhou Lang could always feel the strong sarcasm and ridicule.

Qin Shisan said that this was his hallucination and he was disturbing himself.

But listen, this is obviously sarcasm! It seems as if the Zhou family covets her!

"It's just that we were meddling in other people's business and ruined the good marriage your good father gave you." Zhou Lang said, sneered, turned around and walked away.

There was a clang on the door, and the three maids in the courtyard looked at each other.

Anyway, this kid doesn't look serious at all.

The maid ignored him and asked Brother Jin to close the door, while sitting down in front of Cheng Jiaoniang.

"Madam, madam, what should I do?" she asked anxiously.

Cheng Jiaoniang continued to comb her hair.

"What should I do?" she asked.

"Oh, it's your marriage." The maid said anxiously, then looked back at the door, "I forgot to ask which family I was talking about."

"It's okay, don't worry, you will always come and tell me." Cheng Jiaoniang said.

That must be….

But that's not what I'm talking about now.

"Madam, aren't you in a hurry?" The maid took a few steps forward and looked at Cheng Jiaoniang and asked.

There is no emotion visible from this woman's face, or in other words, she has no emotions at all?

Cheng Jiaoniang has a large dowry, and the maid also knows that a woman with a large dowry is a strong asset for marriage, but Cheng Jiaoniang's own shortcomings make this dowry a bit of a disaster.

It is a crime to possess a jade, especially for someone who was once a fool.

Getting married is never that easy. The Cheng family must have made a plan for the dowry.

What should I do if the matchmaker tells me about my parents' orders for a marriage?

Cheng Jiaoniang motioned to Banqin to tie up her hair while looking at the maid.

"What's the rush?" she said.

The maid was stunned for a moment.

"Madam, you...are you not angry? The master has found a marriage for you." she asked.

She emphasized the word "master".

Can a father who abandoned his child since childhood still be expected to sincerely care about his child and find a good marriage?

"Shouldn't it be?" Cheng Jiaoniang also blinked at her and asked.

Their eyes met for a moment.

Yes, marriage is an important matter, isn’t it the order of the parents? It should be very...

What else can we do? Helpless people face helpless things...

"This is what should make people anxious. If someone is not good, how will they live their lives..." the maid sighed and said.

Cheng Jiaoniang looked at her and smiled slightly.

"If you haven't lived a day, how can you know whether it is good or not?" she said.

Banqin, who was behind her, pulled Cheng Jiaoniang's long black hair into a bun and inserted a small silver comb into it. She also smiled slightly when she heard this.

How are your days going?

My father is gone, the Taoist temple is burned down, I have no money and nothing, how can I survive as an orphan and a weak servant?

After living the life, I returned home.

The family despises it and rushes to the Taoist temple. From then on, how can the weed be forgotten?

After living a good life, we came to the capital.

Good days, bad days, how to live, and how to live have always been controlled by the lady. What's more, this lady has never lived a good life. It is just a matter of marriage. If you think about it carefully, it is nothing.

.

"Lady, please go and find out which family the master is talking about?" the maid couldn't help but ask.

"There's no rush." ​​Cheng Jiaoniang said with a slight smile, "It won't be too late to ask again after Mr. Cheng and Mr. Zhou have made their choice."

The maid sighed, sat back, looked at the master and servant with peaceful expressions, and finally couldn't help laughing.

"No wonder she wants us to call her Banqin," she said with a smile.

Banqin didn't understand.

"Why?" she asked, tying up the last strand of Cheng Jiaoniang's hair.

The maid looked at her and sighed.

"Because Banqin you are smart and we are too stupid. Madam wants us to learn from you," she said.

Banqin covered her mouth and chuckled.

"Sister Banqin is joking again," she said.

"I'm not kidding. I used to think I was pretty smart, and everyone else said so." The maid said, "But the longer I stay with you, the dumber I feel. I suddenly can't figure out many things."

"Then don't think about it." Banqin straightened Cheng Jiaoniang's blouse, took a few steps back, and said with a smile to the maid.

"Human beings are born with brains. Is it possible that they don't want to do anything?" the maid sighed.

Seeing Cheng Jiaoniang pick up the book, the two of them retreated to the corridor. Brother Jin, who was standing in the yard, laughed when he heard her words.

"Then just ask. If you don't understand, just ask." He said.

The maid nodded.

"Yes, if you don't understand, I have to ask for clarification." She said, reaching out to hold Banqin. Just as she was about to speak, there were two more thumps in her ears.

No way?

Someone is coming again?

The maid looked back, and Brother Jin also turned his head to look for the sound.

Two bang-dong sounds sounded again.

"Here, here."

A male voice sounded at the same time.

Both the maid and Brother Jin looked over, and a young man poked his head out from the wall in the glow.

"Is your wife here?" he asked, stroking the wall and smiling.

It's him again!

The maid stared.

"Not here," she said.

Prince Jin'an frowned.
