131: The price of exaggerating your hands
131: The price of showing one’s superiority131: The price of showing one’s superiority
It was obviously a smile as warm as the spring sunshine, but it made Zi Jin feel the sharpness of the little north wind, so he immediately calmed down and slowly started from the time when Zheng Mansion was a guest, slowly transitioned to the goldfish incident, and then to
Zheng Yu narrated the story of secretly crossing Chencang with the news, and finally lightly highlighted the news of Yao Bingfang's heartbreak.
While Zi Jin was talking, he carefully looked at Yao Changjie's face. However, this person had always been calm when Mount Tai collapsed in front of him, and the Yellow River was on the side without being frightened. Zi Jin looked up and down, left, and right.
, I didn’t notice any changes in Yao Changjie from the beginning to the end. That damn coffin face is really unsettling.
"I have finished explaining everything that needs to be said. Third sister must have forced me to come here. Big brother, you know that I can't beat Third Sister again and again. I can't even say that I can't talk to Third Sister. This is also because I was forced to have no choice. Just look at this
For the sake of being forced out of my good intentions, please don't sell me out. The old lady and mother will be pissed to death." Zi Jin pulled Yao Changjie's sleeves pitifully, exuding an image of grievance.
.
Yao Changjie narrowed his eyes, "You didn't report what you knew, and you worked with Yao Bing to deceive the superiors and subordinates. It is an unforgivable crime. If this spreads out, you two can just use a white rope to kill yourselves."
Yao Zijin knew that she must be innocent and pitiful cannon fodder.
"Don't accuse me wrongly. I didn't know it at the beginning. I only found out later. But at that time, how did you say I would expose the third sister?"
Yao Bing is Haishi's biological daughter. If she does such a thing, she will naturally be protected by her mother-in-law. But if she really exposes Yao Bing, not to mention that Yao Bing hates herself, even Haishi will definitely feel that she
He is vicious and dares to attack Yao Bing. Yao Qian, the old lady, even Yao Changjie, and everyone in the Yao family are not sure what they think of him.
What could Zi Jin do about this matter even if he knew about it? He could only hold it firmly in his stomach. If the matter hadn't come to a head this time, why would he have found Yao Changjie in a confused way?
Yao Changjie was so deeply in love that he forgot that there was a difference between direct concubine and concubine. Looking at Zi Jin's appearance, he felt a little guilty. Zi Jin was right, in this matter Yao Yue or Yao
Xue could tell it, but Yao Zijin couldn't. He didn't regard Yao Zijin as an outsider, but he knew that although his mother was pretty good to Zijin, there was a gap between her and his own biological child.
Yao Changjie felt slightly guilty and looked a little unnatural. He turned to look at the white jade pen holder, reached for it and handed it to Zi Jin, saying slowly: "This is yours."
Zi Jin blushed, and her pretense of aura relaxed a little bit. In fact, she was also very despicable. She knew that Yao Changjie would feel a little guilty about her whenever it involved his concubine. This time, he passed the test again.
close.
While feeling relieved, Zi Jin frowned again and asked in a low voice: "Brother, if the third sister asks, how do you think I should answer her?"
Yao Changjie frowned and said slowly: "Of course it's the matchmaker's words ordered by my parents."
Zi Jin couldn't help but roll her eyes. Of course she knew this, but, didn't Haishi directly veto it?
Zi Jin frowned and looked at Yao Changjie bitterly. Without saying a word, she directly complained with her eyes. How could this sentence send Yao Bing away.
Yao Changjie pressed his brows, both of them were worried. Yao Zijin and Ye Mingxuan were already in trouble, but now Yao Bing actually came to secretly attack Chen Cang, and even let people live!
If Yao Changjie was more evil, he could actually scare Yao Zijin and Yao Bing for a while, so that they could learn a lesson. However, looking at Yao Zijin's pitiful little eyes, as if he had been abandoned, he couldn't help but laugh.
He said, "I will naturally visit the eldest son of the Zheng family, and we will talk about everything after I come back."
Yao Zijin immediately breathed a sigh of relief, with a smile on her face that was almost squeezed into an eighteen-fold bun. Then she hugged the white jade pen holder and left happily. Yao Changjie felt relieved when she was doing things.
Zi Jin returned to the yard, first found a brocade box for the pen holder and packed it up solemnly. Yao Bing couldn't let Yao Bing know, otherwise the little girl would think that she had done something to feel sorry for her. Yao Changjie rewarded herself,
Although the truth is the same, she has also been tortured by fear and fear, and she must not suffer Yao Bing's abuse anymore.
Zi Jin's frightened clothes were soaked with sweat from Yao Changjie's place, so she asked someone to fetch water, took a hot bath, changed into a light green jacket and skirt, and did a simple hairdo, and then went to Yao Bing's head.
Walk to the yard.
Yao Bing was in the room anxious to get angry, when she saw Zi Jin pull her in, then wave the two girls away, and asked hurriedly: "How is it, how is it? What does big brother say?"
"
Zi Jin sighed and said with a grimace: "I'm miserable. I was scolded so much by my elder brother that I was so scared that I was soaked all over. Look, I only came here after taking a shower and changing clothes."
In view of Yao Bing's personal pain for this brother, he could deeply understand Zi Jin's mood at this time. He took her hand and said with great emotion: "Fifth sister, it's my fault that you have been wronged.
Don't worry, I will always think of your kindness all my life. No matter whether things work out or not, you have gone through this life for me and been scolded by my big brother. I will remember this."
When Yao Bing said this, Zi Jin felt a little embarrassed. She coughed lightly and said, "I actually just wanted to reveal that regarding the Zheng family's request to marry you, my wife objected to letting the fourth sister marry her. But.
You also know that my eldest brother is born in the year of Dog. He can smell ten things if you tell him something, so I was forced by him to explain your affairs..."
Zi Jin told what happened, and Yao Bing trembled all over after listening to it. A thin layer of sweat oozed out on his forehead. The hand holding Zi Jin shook to varying degrees as Zi Jin progressed in describing the plot.
As he moved, his face turned from red to white, from white to green, from green to black...
"Eldest brother really said that?" Yao Bing's upper and lower teeth were chattering a little, and he looked at Zi Jin with a look of fear on his face.
Zi Jin nodded honestly, then turned to look at the bright light outside the window, and said: "Time is urgent, there is no need to delay. I estimate that my eldest brother will go to visit Zheng's house in the afternoon."
Yao Bing spread his hands on the table and said feebly: "It's over. How could Zheng Yuan admit it when my elder brother comes to visit like this? If he admits it, he will have a handle in my brother's hands for the rest of his life."
Yao Zijin didn't think so. Looking at Yao Bing's weak look, he said, "Don't be so listless. I think this is a clever move."
Yao Bing turned to look at Yao Zijin and disagreed very much, and said: "Why is this a clever move? Although he and I are in love, but after all, we rely on Zheng Yu to spread the word between us, and we only meet very few times. My brother just comes to the door like this,
You said I'm not a fool, how can I admit such a thing? Isn't this causing trouble for myself?"
Zi Jin often felt that Yao Bing's thinking was very magical. According to normal thinking at this time, Zheng Yuan should be an ungrateful bastard if he didn't admit it. Yao Bing should be locked in the room and scolded. Who knows?
Before Yao Changjie went, Yao Bing had already determined that Zheng Yuan would never admit it. Zi Jin did not go around the corner for a while. She was so anxious that she had lived in this time and space for so many years. Even if she was not a very ancient person,
I can also understand the ancients very well.
But when she met Yao Bing, Zi Jin once again understood what it means to see flowers in the mist.
Seeing Zi Jin's dazed look, Yao Bing rarely took the initiative to explain, "Think about it, do I have a token of Zheng Yuan's gift to me? I don't have a half-sentence letter to prove it. It's just that Zheng Yu passed it on."
We talked several times. A man values his reputation and future more than his life. If he admits it, our family will use this matter to make trouble, and the entire Zheng family will be embarrassed for several lifetimes. Even Zheng Yuan cannot admit it even if he is killed."
Zi Jin suddenly realized and suddenly felt a little sad. After all, he was not an ancient person. When he encountered a relationship, the first thing he thought of was to keep himself safe first, and then second. When Yao Bing encountered a relationship, the first thing he thought of was his family.
interests, and then oneself. This has a lot to do with the ancient family education. Therefore, Zi Jin still thinks of modern people in his heart, so he can remember things from the ancients but may not be able to accept them. But people like Yao Bing
Women in ancient times remembered it well.
"Then what will you do if Zheng Yuan doesn't admit it?" Zi Jin suddenly felt that Yao Bing was quite pitiful. Women in ancient times had a romantic love story, which was simply a fantasy.
"I don't know." Yao Bing responded simply and neatly, but the look on his face was somewhat indescribable sadness. Even a fiery woman like Yao Bing was so cautious when talking about love.
Zi Jin was silent. She originally thought that Yao Bing would not be able to speak. Who would have known that after a while, she heard her say again: "If he doesn't admit it, I don't want him either. He has his responsibility. He is the eldest son."
, I can’t bring shame to the family. Then I will follow my mother’s arrangement and marry whoever she asks me to marry, and I will be completely separated from him from now on.” After saying this, his voice paused, and there was a small fire in his eyes, “
If he admits it...my mother still doesn't agree, I will fight for it at the risk of my life."
Zi Jin's heart trembled, and he suddenly remembered Ye Mingxuan's words: "If you give me a little hope as big as a grain of rice, I will fight for it with all my life!"
His eyes were sore and tears fell down. Looking at Yao Bing's mood at the moment, Zi Jin couldn't help but wonder if Ye Mingxuan had the same mentality at that time. As long as he showed some expression, he would really fight for it.
, but how dare she, Yao Bing's marriage is so helpless, let alone her own.
"I haven't cried yet, why are you crying?" Yao Bing looked at Zi Jin in horror, and suddenly felt incredible, this girl must be stupid.
"Who's crying?" Haishi's voice suddenly came through the curtain. Zi Jin and Yao Bing shuddered and stood up suddenly. They were finished!
