Chapter 273 The Youngest Master Shangshu
Cen Xiyan had an impulse in his heart and wanted to run next door to take a closer look to see if the neighbor next door was Zui Liuyun.
However, she only thought about this idea in her heart and quickly gave it up. Such impulsive and irrational behavior should not be what she should do.
She scratched her heart and lungs for a long time, and blushed for a long time. After the sound of the piano suppressed her symptoms of blood boil, she got out of the tub, dried herself, put on her middle coat, lay back on the bed, and tried hard to think.
Fall asleep by yourself. Only when you fall asleep can you truly calm down.
However, she tossed and turned and baked cakes on the bed for a long time, but could not fall asleep. Zui Liuyun's beautiful face kept dazzling in front of her eyes, causing her to lose sleep...
"Alas..." Cen Xiyan sighed and said in a low voice, "What a monster..."
Cen Xiyan's tossing has already woken up little Amy. When she heard her little master's low murmur, she couldn't help but open her mouth and said, "Monster!"
Cen Xiyan was lost in thought alone. When little Amy suddenly made a sound, she was startled. She sat up from the bed with a "whoosh". After a moment of reaction, she realized that it was the little parrot who loved to copy words.
Yelling, he couldn't help but angrily reprimanded: "Shut up and go to sleep!"
Little Amy heard that her little master seemed unhappy, so she cleverly closed her mouth.
the next morning.
Cen Xiqin came over to eat. Seeing that Cen Xiyan was always absent-minded and dazed, he couldn't help but asked strangely: "Sixth sister, what's wrong with you?"
Cen Xiyan mechanically poked the rice grains with his chopsticks and slowly put them into his mouth. He did not respond to Cen Xiqin's questions.
"Sixth sister!" Cen Xiqin called again, raising her voice.
"Ah?" Cen Xiyan finally came to his senses, looked at Cen Xiqin, and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Sixth sister, why do you only eat rice and not vegetables?"
"Oh, I'm eating." Cen Xiyan picked up a chopstick and put it into his mouth.
"Sixth sister, are you...have something on your mind?" Cen Xiqin asked carefully.
"No." Cen Xiyan denied, determined not to give Cen Xiqin a chance to gossip, "Let's eat your food."
"Oh..." Cen Xiqin rolled his eyes and didn't ask any more questions.
After dinner, Cen Xiqin secretly looked for Jingshuang and Yingxue and asked, "What's wrong with Sixth Sister?"
Jingshuang and Yingxue both shook their heads: "Miss, there's nothing wrong with her."
Although it was okay to say so, the two girls actually noticed that something was not right with Cen Xiyan today. However, they would not gossip about their young ladies with others, and they really did not know why Cen Xiyan was acting like this today.
Due to the situation, we can only guess that she might have met someone or something when she went out last night.
"Huh! If you don't tell me, forget it!" Cen Xiqin, who didn't find out the gossip, made a face at Jingshuang and Yingxue, and then left.
Cen Xiqin murmured in her heart that the girls raised by Sixth Sister were all mysterious and weird! However, everyone had their own secrets. Since they didn't want to tell them, she didn't ask, because Sixth Sister's
With her abilities, she probably won't encounter any major problems that are difficult to solve. She'd better go back and practice her internal skills and mental skills.
Cen Xiqin herself didn't realize that she had only been with Cen Xiyan for a few days, and she already had a kind of blind worship and confidence in Cen Xiyan.
After Cen Xiyan had breakfast, he practiced calligraphy in his room, not running script or cursive script, but regular plum blossom regular script. He wrote stroke by stroke, very seriously. In this way, he could calm down his mind.
Jingshuang walked upstairs and placed a cup of herbal fruit tea next to Cen Xiyan, but she did not leave immediately, but stood beside her without saying a word.
After Cen Xiyan put down the last stroke of the character he was writing, he put down the brush in his hand, picked up the cup and took a sip. Then he turned slightly sideways, looked at Jingshuang beside him, and asked: "What's the matter? You said
Bar."
After being together for ten years, Cen Xiyan knew the temperaments of the two girls around him very well. Seeing Jingshuang acting like this, he knew she had something to say.
"There are guests in the house. Miss, it's better to tidy up. Later, the old lady may call Miss." Jingshuang said.
"Oh?" Che Xiyan raised his eyebrows and asked, "Guest? Who is it?"
If it were an ordinary customer, Jingshuang would definitely not go out of her way to repay her.
Moreover, it seems that these two girls have already established their own relationship network in the Cen Mansion. Otherwise, there would be no guests from the old lady, and they got the news so quickly.
Jingshuang said: "He is the son of the eldest lady's natal family, named Sang Qingzhi. Speaking of which, the young lady should call him cousin. Speaking of this person, young lady, you already know who he is, right?"
"Sang Qingzhi?" Cen Xiyan indeed knew this person. "The genius number one scholar whose articles were praised by the emperor? His official position was like a rocket. In less than four years, he was promoted to the imperial celebrity of the Minister of Household Affairs.
, Mr. Sang?”
"It's Mr. Sang." Jingshuang nodded.
"Oh..." Cen Xiyan looked thoughtful and began to recall information about her cousin, Sang Qingzhi, who had no blood relationship with her.
Mr. Sang's biological mother was a concubine of the Li family. Because of her status, she could not marry into a prominent family as his wife, so the Li family chose a middle-class Sang family for her. Although it was not considered a very wealthy family,
But she also comes from a scholarly and elegant family, and her family size is also simple. Compared with marrying into a complicated and noble family as a concubine, this kind of marriage is considered to be very good.
Unfortunately, this young lady from the Li family was not very lucky. Her husband died of illness a few years after marrying into the Sang family. It was not easy for a woman to serve her parents-in-law and raise young children. Mrs. Li had a good relationship with this concubine and often helped her.
Therefore, the relationship between the Cen and Sang families is quite close.
Sang Qingzhi, the young master of the Sang family, has been quite talented since he was a child. In the last Enke examination, he became an instant success and was appointed by the emperor as the number one scholar.
At the age of 18, he became the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, becoming the youngest Minister of the Third Rank in the history of the Eastern Xin Dynasty!
Now he has been in this position for more than a year, he is already twenty-five years old, but he has not yet married a wife and has children. He has become a popular single diamond king in Sheng'an City!
However, due to the poor family background of the Sang family, some particularly noble nobles from aristocratic families with hundreds of years of heritage still put on airs and did not want to betroth their legitimate daughters to him. Others from lower-level families were obviously not worthy of him. This was
It has become a situation where neither high nor low can be achieved.
Of course, there are also noble families who don't care about his family background and value his potential. They want to marry their daughters, both legitimate and concubine daughters. But this person is very picky. He doesn't have many people he likes, and he doesn't want to make do with it.
, the longer you delay, the older you get.
