peasant young lady

Chapter 337

The smile on Cheng Xia's face turned cold in an instant, and she patted Wang Hanxiao who was unknown so she was rather shocked, "Aunt Han, you and shopkeeper Shang will follow Shao Chen into the house first, and you will have dinner ready later." , I'll go straight back to eat."

"Xiao Xia, here," Wang Hanxiao looked at the woman behind him in shock. She looked exactly like Xiao Xia, which was unbelievable.

Cheng Xia winked at Shao Chen, but Shao Chen remained indifferent, "I can't let you here by yourself."

Cheng Xia smiled suddenly, and said to Shao Chen in a low voice, "Take Aunt Han and shopkeeper Shang away, and then look at Cheng You, don't let him come out." Cheng Xia knew that Shao Chen didn't treat her like Zhu Youzhao He knew the past and the past clearly, but he should have guessed something vaguely.It's just that Shao Chen doesn't know how to ask, and she doesn't want to explain, it's just a tacit understanding.

"Jiang Wei, what can she do to me, it's just that she has nowhere to vent her anger, don't worry, I will protect myself."

To put it bluntly, Cheng Xia asked Shao Chen to bring Aunt Han and Shopkeeper Shang back to Cheng Mansion, and then turned to look at Jiang Wei who looked angry, "I haven't seen you in half a year, don't come here without any problems."

Jiang Wei's eyes narrowed fiercely, looking at Cheng Xia's swollen belly, the fierceness in her eyes suddenly revealed, "You have harmed me to such a degree, yet you are enjoying the wealth and glory, how can you be so peaceful?" Got it?"

"Joke," Cheng Xia snorted coldly, "do you think I owe you something? I have nothing to worry about. I feel very at ease. I have come to the present step by step. If you trample anyone on the soles of your feet, how can you not feel at ease."

"You're lying!" Jiang Wei yelled, ignoring the fact that it was within the boundaries of the palace, "If there was no Shao Chen, you would still be living in that remote village, and you dare to say that you don't rely on anyone."

Cheng Xia let out a breath and smiled slightly, "You are wrong, if there is no Shao Chen, I would have come to the capital early. You have found out the time and place of my move today, just to vent your dissatisfaction Right? Hey," Cheng Xia approached Jiang Wei for a few minutes and shook her head slightly, "Instead of wasting time on me, why not improve yourself and seek an extraordinary bright future for the rest of your life. "

"What bright future do I have?" Jiang Wei smiled wryly, "My good marriage was ruined by you. Concubine Shao had clearly promised me that she would let me be King Xing's official concubine. It was all because of you and me. Your dreams are gone, you ruined me."

Cheng Xia shook her head, "Don't you even think about what you have done to make people look down on you. For the sake of glory and wealth, you can forget your roots, look down on this one, and look down on that one, blindly pursuing you out of reach The phantom of you, so what if you reach it, do you really think that others are fools, you deceive others for a while, but you can't deceive them forever, the kindness in your heart is the foundation of your foothold."

"But the fortune teller said that I have the fate of the imperial concubine!" Jiang Wei struggled and roared.

Cheng Xia suddenly sneered, "Actually, the fortune teller is too young." She not only has the fate to be the imperial concubine, but also the fate to be the queen mother, but so what, everything has changed, Cheng Xia raised her eyebrows, "Look at Zhang For your sake, let me give you some advice. In fact, you are already at a much higher starting point than when you were in Qingxian Village. If you can cherish it, you can improve yourself. I heard that Jiang Yan treats you very well , and now he has climbed into the son-daughter family of King Xing, and most of them will come to marry you in the future. If you can manage well, so that you don't have so much resentment and dissatisfaction in your heart, try to find good things, you The days to come will be fine.”

Cheng Xia looked at this face that was almost exactly the same as her own, and couldn't help herself, "It's more than the top and the bottom is more than the bottom, as long as you don't have so much greed in your heart, you can live well." Cheng Xia looked at Jiang Wei a little dazed Dazed, when I turned around, I found Shao Chen leaning against the door of the mansion, so I smiled, "My husband is waiting for me to go home, so I'll go first."

Cheng Xia walked all the way to the entrance of the mansion, and when she turned her head, she found Jiang Wei was still standing there, wondering what she was thinking in a daze, Cheng Xia didn't say any more, just took Shao Chen's hand and entered the door.

Shopkeeper Shang and Aunt Han stayed in the capital for a few more days, and at the end of April, they were reluctant to part with the pharmacy and medicated food room in Chong'an County and went back to Fujian.

After sending Aunt Han away, Shang Luo invited Cheng Xia to visit the manor, saying that the peppers and tomatoes in the shed were ripe, Cheng Xia was overjoyed, and hurriedly followed Shang Luo to Chaoyangmen Nei Street.She has missed the hot and sour taste for too long. The bottom of the red oil hot pot in Zuihonglou has long since disappeared. Dahua muttered a few times, saying that the guests complained a lot. After all, the spicy taste is very popular among guests. Dahua Hua also said that if the peppers were not ripe, her guests would have toppled the roof of the Zuihonglou.

On the way to the manor, Shang Luo asked Cheng Xia while walking, "Do you know why I live next door to you?"

Cheng Xia shook her head, "I don't know." She didn't want to guess either.

Seeing Cheng Xia's attitude, Shang Luo couldn't help curling her lips, this woman is so simple, that's all, let's not mention it.

When Cheng Xia saw the bright red peppers and tomatoes, he wished he could quickly break off a few to try something new.This bright color is really mouth-watering.

Shangluo sent people to pick several carts of peppers and tomatoes and sent them all to the backyard of Zuihonglou. When Dahua saw it, she was so happy that she almost jumped up, and begged Cheng Xia to teach her how to make tomato pot and red oil pot. There were countless real gold and silver flying by in front of her eyes, and they were about to fall into her pockets.

The appearance of Dahua as a money fan is simply hilarious.

It is rare for Cheng Xia to come to Zuihonglou, and he also learned that Zuihonglou is indeed very profitable. In the past, the medicinal food room could make a net profit of 600 taels of silver in three months, but in Zuihonglou, this is only a one-month profit, and it is even the minimum profit. , Dahua can count silver every day until she gets cramps in her hands.

Originally, Cheng Xia handed over Zuihonglou to Dahuaguan. As for the profit, she and Shangluo made a share of it, so she could earn daily expenses, and let Dahua take care of the rest.But Dahua disagreed, and insisted that [-]% of Shangluo, [-]% of hers, and the other [-]% belonged to Cheng Xia, and it was enough for Zuihonglou to teach her to take care of it alone. In the process of running the business, she can get to know all kinds of people, see all kinds of things, and deal with big and small problems. All these things improve her, compared to simple money, it is simply a big witch and Little Witch made a difference.

Cheng Xia was very happy when she saw the confidence and bright smile on Dahua's face, as well as her smooth handling of gags with guests. Dahua made her admire more and more. Such a girl is worthy of being the best man in the world. She deserves the best of everything.

Cheng Xia taught Dahua how to make tomato pots and red oil pots, and enriched the clear soup and mushroom soup pot bottoms, making the pot bottoms more diverse. In this way, customers have more room for choice, and with Shangluo's Greenhouse technology, you don’t have to worry about vacancies in peppers and tomatoes, you can use them as much as you want, and you will earn more money.

The matter of Zuihonglou was handed over to Dahua and Shangluo, and Cheng Xia was ready to have a baby with peace of mind. The older the month, the deeper the uneasiness in her heart.It is said that giving birth is a hurdle, especially in the Ming Dynasty where medical conditions are very backward, what if something happens and she dies.

Every time she thinks about it, she is worried, although it is a bit unfounded, but she really does not want to die, she has someone she loves, the closest family member, and a child who is connected to her flesh and blood, she feels that her heart is at ease Down, don't want to toss anymore.

After that, neither she nor Shao Chen went back to see Shao's house, and they didn't know what Shao Lin and Wang Qingwan were like now.Cheng Xia would occasionally think, is Wang Qingwan going to spend his whole life in Shao's house?She still has such a long life to enjoy, so why insist on it.

Cheng Xia didn't expect that Shao Lin would appear just as she thought of him a few days ago.

It was the end of July, and the weather was scorchingly hot. Cheng Xia wanted to eat ice porridge, and said that she could make it by herself, but it made Shao Chen terribly upset.On the one hand, he was afraid that she would not be able to take it, and on the other hand, seeing how greedy she was, especially when her pitiful big eyes blinked at him, he had no resistance at all.

The two were in a stalemate when they heard Zi Yuan whisper that the master had arrived, Cheng Xia and Shao Chen were both taken aback for a moment, and after reacting for a while, they realized that the master Zi Yuan was talking about was Shao Lin.

After half a year, some emotions also dissipated. Although Shao Chen didn't show a good face, he didn't get angry anyway.

Shao Lin's eyes turned red the moment he saw Cheng Xia's big belly, and he said tremblingly, "Okay, okay, our Shao family finally has a queen." He couldn't help but burst into tears.

Cheng Xia didn't know what Shao Lin was here for, so Zi Yuan could only ask him to come in and sit down.

Shao Lin glanced at Cheng Xia, then at the expressionless Shao Chen, and finally said, "I went to see Wang Yue in the prison."

As soon as he finished speaking, he noticed a sudden change in Shao Chen's eyes, and Shao Lin hurriedly continued, "Wang Yue committed suicide in the prison."

Cheng Xia's original indifference was pulled back in an instant, and she looked at Shao Lin in disbelief, "When?"

Shao Lin sighed, "Just after I left the prison."

Uh, Cheng Xia pouts, "What happened?"

"From the moment Wang Yue entered the prison, he kept saying that he hoped that I could go to see him, but I never went. Until today, I made up my mind to go there. Unexpectedly, as soon as I left, he committed suicide."

Cheng Xia frowned, "Did you say something?"

"Hey," Shao Lin sighed, "Wang Yue said that he has made countless contributions in his life and has done all kinds of bad things, but he can only enjoy a life of superiority and cannot accept the status quo of being inferior. Instead of this, he might as well die. It's just that he always feels that it is wrong for me. I am a little owed, I want to see me for the last time, and then leave."

Cheng Xia nodded, the few months of life in the dungeon may have made Wang Yue see a lot clearly.Now that he's gone, she doesn't want to say anything more, leaving it to future generations to make a final decision on such matters.

After a long silence, Shao Lin glanced at Shao Chen again, thought for a while, and finally said, "Qingwan still stays in the mansion. She said she won't go anywhere, so she just stays in the mansion." Because there is him in Shao's mansion. Even if there is only a little trace of life, it is precious.

But Shao Lin didn't say this, he also understood that he can't interfere with Shao Chen's affairs, and now he just hopes that the relationship will not become more rigid, at least he can come and see the soon-to-be-born baby great grandson.

The days that followed were warm and peaceful, until one day in early September, Cheng Xia and Lihua were walking in the back garden, and as they walked, they found that their stomachs had a slight tendency to slump, and her heart tightened. The ten-month-old little bastard is coming.
