Chapter 100

Cheng Wenren was young after all. Although he knew that the family had suffered a huge blow this time, he never expected that his family could not even rent a decent house. Even the place on Panlou Street was rented by Bai Xin.In the evening, the family sat at the table and told what happened to each other in the past few months. After listening to it, they all sighed and lamented that the world is impermanent.

The aunt of the Cheng family wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said with a smile: "It's time to write a letter to the second sister to report her safety. Years later, before the decree was promulgated, she followed her husband's family to work in another place, and she has been thinking about you all the time. Stay and not go."

Cheng Wenren suddenly realized that it was no wonder why he didn't see the second sister, "I'll write when I get back to my room, I'm afraid she will suspect that you lied to her if she sees that it's not my handwriting."

The family laughed, and Mrs. Cheng said: "The water in the distance can't quench the thirst. The second sister just wants to help her mother's family, so she can't come back for a while. I also heard that her mother-in-law has a weird temper, and she might not be able to suppress the rich daughter-in-law. She is always tit-for-tat. Even if the second sister stays in the capital and wants to help, it is really difficult to do it. Fortunately, the Bai family Saburo is grateful and nostalgic. When you were in Songshan Village, the second brother only helped him once, and he will never forget it. , when our family was in trouble, not only didn't we avoid it, but we even offered to help, is it pre-determined to peck and drink?"

Aunt Cheng knew that when she was in Songshan Village, Cheng Wenren's help to the Bai family, in her opinion, was just a gift of food, and she didn't take it seriously.When Cheng Wenren heard the eldest sister say "Maybe it's a pre-determined", he felt as if he had eaten honey. The elder sister praised Bai Xin, and he was happier than hearing him praise.

Master Cheng sat on the upper hand, listening to the laughter of his children, but his face was expressionless, and he couldn't tell what he was thinking. Everyone just thought it was his personality and didn't care. After dinner in the evening, Master Cheng deliberately waved Aunt Cheng away. Only Mrs. Cheng and her two sons remained.

Cheng Jia Dalang and Cheng Wenren both thought that their father was going to talk about doing business in the future, so they couldn't help but look respectful and listen carefully, but when Master Cheng opened his mouth, he actually said something else, "I think that Bai Jiasanlang is a good character." , not like other glib people, I like it very much, I want to tell him your eldest sister, that child is kind-hearted, and he will not dislike your eldest sister being divorced, although our family is now in decline, but you still have it in your hands If there is a ship of goods, if you change hands, you will have capital again, and you can support a small business, so the two families are well-matched."

The eldest daughter's marriage is simply a heart problem for Mrs. Cheng. Seeing that this is what she is talking about, and she also likes Bai Xin, with a smile on her face, she subconsciously nods in agreement.

After hearing this, Cheng Dalang felt a little inappropriate, frowned slightly, but didn't speak.

When Cheng Wenren heard the praise of Bai Xin, he smiled and nodded in agreement. When his father changed the subject, he suddenly widened his eyes and said sharply: "No!"

Everyone was taken aback by his violent reaction, and Mrs. Cheng hurriedly smoothed things over, "You too, Bai Sanlang is a good boy, but he is too young to say what the future holds. Yingying and Yanyan are seduced, spoiling concubines and destroying wives, our aunt is really ashamed to live, I said to find an older one for aunt, who has never seen anything before? He also knows the importance and rules."

Master Cheng suppressed his anger, glared at her, and shouted: "Women, what do you know?"

Youdao trained his son face to face and his wife behind his back. Mrs. Cheng was yelled at by him, and Gaden shut her mouth, her face was hot and she couldn't hold back.

Cheng Wenren hurriedly said: "Mother is right, Sanlang is still young after all, and Eldest Sister is seven years older than him."

The old man glanced at his son, and asked back in a strange manner: "Why, your friend, do you also think he will be like the Zhao family in the future?"

Mentioning the Zhao family, Cheng Wenren's face was vicious, and he gritted his teeth: "Then what is the Zhao family? He can't even match Bai Sanlang with a finger, father, of course I believe that Sanlang is not that kind of person, but...but he Just can't marry eldest sister?"

"Why not?" At this moment, Master Cheng really preferred that Bai Xin was an ungrateful person. He stared at his son firmly, without any fluctuations in his voice, "Since you trust him so much and think he is good, why don't you want your sister to marry him?" he?"

Cheng Wenren's face turned red, his chest was on fire, and in desperation, he shouted: "San Lang has a sweetheart?"

Old Master Cheng's eyes became colder and colder. Seeing that his son was much more stable than before, he tried his best not to stand up and walk down to make a move.

If the situation were different, Cheng Wenren might have sensed that something was wrong long ago, he thought to himself "Bai Sanlang's sweetheart is me", but he only dared to think about it, and he was very excited about this idea, and became more and more anxious.

Bystanders can tell that Mrs. Cheng and Cheng Dalang have finally noticed something. The former only thinks it is weird, but has not thought about it. Cheng Dalang has seen a lot and understood something, but still can't believe it. Winking, shook his head slightly again.

Cheng Wenren suddenly raised his head, and saw his father's face was ashen, his eyes were dark, dark and turbulent as if a storm was about to come, father and son for more than ten years, how could Cheng Wenren not know that this was a sign before his father was really angry, and he was always so stubborn The neck lesson is just a small fight. The only time he saw his father's expression like this was when his eldest sister was suspended and went home. He accidentally broke into the study. He wanted his father to agree to teach the Zhao family a lesson, but his father didn't even say a serious word. Cheng Wenren was scared at the time and didn't dare to argue. When he came back, he heard that the Zhao family had suffered a lot.

Cheng Wenren's heart skipped a beat. He instinctively felt that his father knew about it, but he was not sure, and he had no way of knowing when his father knew about it. Nothing was said.He was afraid that his father would strongly obstruct him if he found out. When he thought of the situation, his heart felt as if it was being torn apart. Cheng Wenren stood there helplessly, as if he had lost his soul, and his face was as pale as paper.

Even someone could tell that Cheng Wenren's behavior was not right. Mrs. Cheng was startled, she stood up from her chair and yelled, "Wenren, what's wrong with you?"

Cheng Dalang couldn't see it, so he followed suit, "Father, Bai Sanlang is still young, and he really doesn't match up with the eldest sister. Because he is still young, the future is unknown. Maybe it is like this now, and it will change later. People are pushing too hard? What should I do if I have nowhere to go?"

Mrs. Cheng didn't understand what the eldest son said, and felt that what he said was nonsensical. After hearing this, Master Cheng's face softened a little, and he looked at Cheng Wenren with a complicated expression. At the end, he reminded: "Our family is now in decline. Still pointing at you and your elder brother, calm down for me, stop acting like a kid, you are old, you should know what is important."

Cheng Wenren's heart seemed to be warming up in winter, and he recovered a little bit. He heard the implication of his elder brother. He was grateful to him for smoothing things over, but he wanted to refute his words. Thinking to himself, where did he show his feet?

This night, apart from Mrs. Cheng who didn't know, no one in the Cheng family slept soundly. Cheng Wenren was tossing and turning on the bed, wishing that the sky would be brighter soon so that he could find Bai Xin.

Early the next morning, when Cheng Wenren had breakfast with his family, he felt guilty and impatient. After eating, he couldn't wait to go out. Having already guessed something, he said this very without confidence, and ran out in a hurry after finishing speaking.

After a while, Cheng Wenren came to Bai Xin's shop. As soon as he looked up, he saw Bai Xin sitting leisurely behind the counter. He didn't know what was written, and occasionally encountered some problems. He tapped his lips with the pen, very vividly. , Cheng Wenren put all his troubles behind him, and walked in cheerfully.

Bai Xin heard the movement, looked up and saw him, with a gurgling smile on his face, and said as a matter of course: "You are here!"

Cheng Wenren walked up to him, looked down at the densely packed papers on the table, and knew that he was writing Xiangfang. Seeing that there was no one downstairs, Cheng Wenren leaned into his ear and whispered, "Sanlang, my father seems to know that we both thing."

When Bai Xin heard this, he was angry and funny, put down his pen, and looked at him, "What's the matter between us?"

Seeing that he didn't refute, Cheng Wenren was overjoyed and encouraged. He raised his head and glanced left and right. Seeing that there were no pedestrians at the door, he bent down and kissed him quickly on the face, "That's it!"

This sudden move startled Bai Xin, but he didn't resist the discomfort in his heart, so he could be sure of his mind. He sighed silently and asked, "What did your father say?"

Cheng Wenren talked about his father's reaction yesterday, and then said what his elder brother said. After finishing speaking, he was a little bit unwilling, "Even my elder brother doesn't like me. What he said clearly said that you are young, but in fact he was talking about me. Woolen cloth."

"Your elder brother and your father are right. At least for now, we should focus on business."

Cheng Wenren knew that Bai Xin had tacitly accepted him at this moment, and he was so happy that he almost danced.
