A Breeze in the South of the Yangtze River A Breeze in the South of the Yangtze River Chapter 5 The Cheng Family Has a Young Girl(1/2)

Cheng Huan didn't understand why the young man in front of him was so uncharacteristically nice to her.

Xu Yue looked at Wei Zigeng and then at the beautiful and refined little girl from the Cheng family. He seemed to understand something in his heart. He was eating soy sauce beef while suppressing a smile.

"My fair lady, a gentleman is very flirtatious. He must have fallen in love with her. Maybe he came just because of her reputation."

Cheng Xi rubbed his ears, sat down opposite Xu Yue, took a pair of chopsticks and picked up a peanut. Seeing Xu Yue's suppressed smile opposite him, he was so angry that he threw a peanut away.

The rice passed by, but was caught by his chopsticks.

"Hey, thank you very much, young master."

Cheng Huan replied with some doubts:

"These are all ridiculous compliments given by Wenlin scholars in the early years, and they are really undeserved."

Wei Zigeng stretched out his hand to invite Cheng Huan to sit down, took a wine glass, and filled it for her.

"I'm really sorry. I finished drinking the Amber Light I brought from Yuzhou City on the way, so I can only serve it with your Lingzhou Guangjiao Minglou."

Hearing this, Cheng Xi became even more angry and said angrily:

"Use my wine to treat my sister, you..."

"From now on, if you say one more word, I will copy the saint's sayings ten times when you go back, and I will check them myself!"

One sentence left this arrogant young master speechless and on the verge of crying.

In today's world, if there is anyone else who can cure this Lingzhou Demon King, it must be his second sister Cheng Huan.

"You said you came from Yuzhou City? Is that amber light..."

I don't know if it was an illusion, but Xu Yue always felt that it was because the second young lady of the Cheng family always had tears in her eyes when she saw the pure white long knife in Wei Zigeng's hand.

"Exactly, I came here this time...as entrusted by my best friend to come here to Jiangnan."

With trembling hands, Cheng Huan slowly reached for the pure white long knife. The moment he touched the scabbard, he withdrew his hand as fast as lightning. Then he stood up and turned his head, as if wiping away tears.

After a moment, Cheng Huan turned his head and said with a smile:

"You two young heroes, my younger brother was rude to you earlier. I will ask him to apologize to you. This is not the place to talk. If you don't mind, please come to my Cheng Mansion and have a chat. Prepare a small amount of wine to express your apology."

As he spoke, he picked up Cheng Xi, who was sitting down, and pressed the back of his head. The latter had no choice but to bow and apologize.

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. We have known each other little Master Cheng for a long time, so why don't you please lead the way?"

The four of them stood up and walked towards Pinghu Villa under the leadership of Cheng Huan.

After the five people left, Happy Forest instantly exploded with exclamations.

"It's been so many years, how long has it been since the second lady showed up at Happy House!"

"Yes, yes, what is that young man's background? He was actually invited by the second lady to be a guest at Pinghu Villa!"

"The young master was trained so hard by the second lady that he lost his temper. When have I ever seen a young master like this?"

At the counter, the proprietress Chen Yan stared blankly at what had just happened here. The waiters on the side believed that they had done something wrong and caused the restaurant to lose a lot of money, so they kept their heads down and did not dare to speak.

Chen Chen patted him on the shoulder and said:

"You have made great achievements this time. When the silver reward comes from Pinghu Villa, I will definitely reward you with a sum of money so that you can go back to your hometown and get a wife."

The waiter couldn't believe his ears. He raised his head blankly and looked at the graceful proprietress walking towards the backyard.

"I'll dress more conservatively from now on."

Along the way, Cheng Huan walked side by side with Wei Zigeng at the front, enthusiastically introducing him to the customs and places of interest in Lingzhou City. The two of them were talking and laughing. How could you tell that they almost drew swords at each other in the restaurant earlier?

Behind him, Cheng Xi looked at the young man's back with an angry face and secretly clenched his fists. Xu Yue held the wine gourd and took a sip of wine when he was thirsty.

Seeing Young Master Cheng's appearance, he smiled and touched him with his arm and said:

"My brother is about to become your brother-in-law."

Cheng Xi said:

"It's impossible. I don't understand that boy, but don't I understand my sister? My sister won't like him."

Listening to Cheng Xi's confident tone, Xu Yue continued to add fuel to the fire.

"Don't you see how happy your sister is? The two of them are just walking hand in hand. Ask yourself, as the second young lady of Pinghu Villa, is she living like this with other men?"

Cheng Xi didn't bother to explain to him. He knew that Cheng Huan's happy introduction was not for the young man, but for another person.

An old friend whom I have never met.

Jiangnan Pinghu Villa is built near mountains and rivers.

The mountain is Beigu Mountain and the water is Taihu Lake.

This line of buildings stretches for eighty miles across Taihu Lake. From its courtyard, you can see the vast misty waves of Taihu Lake, and you can row boats on it. It is a beautiful occasion. Behind it is Beigu Mountain. Huge sums of money and manpower will be spent to hollow out half of the mountain, and the entire Pinghu Villa

It seems to be embedded in it.

The Cheng Mansion of Pinghu Villa is the most prosperous building in the world. It has six entrances and six exits, and is extremely luxurious. It has nine winding corridors, row upon row, lush greenery, flowers, birds, fish and insects, and it is so beautiful.

Passing through the corridors and buildings, the structure is like a winding mountain. The jade tower and golden pavilion are called the heaven. The sun and moon shine brightly, and it is magnificent and extremely wealthy.

Seeing the Pinghu Villa on Jiangnan Road in front of him, Xu Yue was shocked. No matter how imaginative he was, he could not imagine its magnificence.

"This...is this your home?"

Xu Yue's voice trembled slightly, and he pointed at the Pinghu Villa in front of him and asked Cheng Xi who was standing aside.

Cheng Xi looked at him as if he had never seen the world before and said with a smile:

"Not my home."

"Oh, I'm just telling you, how could someone have such a big family!"

The largest house Xu Yue had ever seen was Huo Dongchuan's mansion with four entrances and four exits, which was beyond imagination.

Unexpectedly, Xu Yue almost couldn't spit out his next sentence.

"This is part of my home. At most it's just a bigger back garden."

I almost vomited out a mouthful of blood. I originally thought that the place where Huo Dongchuan lived was already very big, but to my surprise, this Pinghu Villa was even more amazing!

"Miss Cheng, let's take the side door."

The gate of Pinghu Villa was closed tightly, with only two nurses and one concierge standing at the door.

Cheng Huan shook his head and said:

"When a distinguished guest comes to visit, how can we let him go through the side door? Cheng Xi, go and open the middle door for us in person!"

Cheng Xi had completely given up resistance at this time and walked alone.

"Yes..., I listen to the second sister in everything..."

Not long after, the middle door opened wide, and a servant of more than ten years and a steward walked out.

Cheng Huan stepped forward and asked:

"Uncle Qian, this is my friend, please ask the kitchen to cook more dishes."

Manager Qian nodded slightly and led everyone into Pinghu Villa.

There are nine twists and turns, Xu Yue tried hard to remember the landmark buildings in every place, just in case he didn't know the way.

After walking for half an hour, Wei Zigeng and Cheng Huan walked side by side to a study room in the backyard.

"You guys wait at the door, I have something to say to Young Master Wei."

The chief steward nodded slightly, Cheng Xi nodded helplessly and shouted "I understand!"

Xu Yue's eyes were really opened today. He asked with doubts:

"It doesn't make sense for a man and a woman to live together in the same room, and Miss Cheng Er is still a young lady. Isn't this unreasonable? Don't you have anything to say?"

"It doesn't matter, the second young lady... um... the second young lady has her own sense of proportion."

Seeing him hesitate to speak, Xu Yue always felt that they were hiding something from him.

In the study, Wei Zigeng took off the knife and handed it to Cheng Huan.

Tears welled up in Cheng Huan's eyes, which instantly turned red. With trembling hands, she took the exquisite pure white narrow-mouthed long knife.

"Did Zhou Ying say anything before she died? About...about me?"

Wei Zigeng nodded without thinking and said:

"Well, Ah Ying said that Cheng Wenxia is a very friendly person. If he has the opportunity, he will definitely come to Jiangnan Road to visit. The regret before his death is that he never came to Jiangnan..."

"Never came to Jiangnan... Never came to Jiangnan... Never came to Jiangnan..."

Cheng Huan muttered this sentence repeatedly, tears rolled down his eyes, and he looked at the long knife in his hand with a thoughtful expression.

Wei Zigeng clasped his fists, bowed and saluted:

"Thank you Cheng Wenxia for speaking a fair word for A Ying three years ago. Even though you have never met, A Ying said that she has always regarded you as a confidant, Cheng Wenxia."

"Confidant...see me as a confidant..."

Finally, Cheng Huan couldn't bear it anymore. Tears burst out of her eyes like a flood. She stroked the scabbard with her cheek and cried heartbreakingly.
