girl, you're wrong

Chapter 336 The Important Thing
in case.

I'm not that talented.

Will they treat me better?
Some messy, inexplicable and abnormal thoughts, along with the passage of time in the dream, began to gather in Cheng Jinyang's mind.

Although he really wanted to complain, Zheng Qiupei was clearly on the edge of his horn at this time, but after all, he was in a state of possession and couldn't speak, so he could only hold back extremely uncomfortable.

At the same time, he also saw Zheng Qiupei's strange characteristics.

So humble.

The girl is sensitive to the emotional states of others, and places great value on her relationship with her cousin and sister-in-law.

Cousin Zheng Wengong's perception of her is not bad, after all, she is his cousin in terms of seniority, and she has a good personality; cousin Liu is smiling in front of her face, and she is a model of mmp behind her. She not only has strong hostility towards her, but also often Fanning the flames and exaggerating in front of Zheng Wengong.

For example, once the old patriarch adopts Zheng Qiupei, won't she get married when she becomes the patriarch in the future?As long as a husband is found within the Zheng clan, the power of the patriarch will inevitably fall into the hands of her husband's clan.

Zheng Qiupei has no parents, nor any siblings. The only relative is his cousin Zheng Wengong.In order to control his wife and successfully seize power, her future husband must do everything possible to drive Zheng Wengong's family out of the center of power?Even if you don't think about our future, you still have to think about our children.

Zheng Qiupei must not be adopted by the old patriarch!
Zheng Wengong's attitude is also very wavering. Every time Liu said something in his ear, his attitude towards Zheng Qiupei became a little distant; and then Zheng Qiupei tried to restore the relationship, but he felt guilty again and changed his attitude again.

Perhaps it was also the reason that Zheng Qiupei kept trying to please his cousin's family, so much so that even Cheng Jinyang couldn't stand it.

For example, Zheng Qiupei likes to compete with the maids at home to do laundry, cooking, garbage collection and cleaning, which makes Liu complain in private that "there is no such thing as a big lady".Zheng Wengong was very relieved, thinking that "she has such thoughts and is very sensible", which made Liu annoyed so much that he could only roll his eyes.

Of course, no matter how capable a person is, he will not be able to do all the work of the maids, so Zheng Qiupei became the head maid spontaneously, and often tells the maids in detail about the living habits of Mr. Zheng and Mrs. Zheng, and how to take care of her. They are a family.

This made Liu even more disgusted.When Zheng Wengong's fourth son was full moon, relatives came to visit and drink full moon wine. Mrs. Liu came slowly to the kitchen door and saw Zheng Qiupei talking about dinner with the maids:
"...My sister-in-law has just recovered after giving birth, and her diet is mainly light, with more fruits and less meat, which will increase the burden on the stomach..."

"Little Pei!" Mrs. Liu grabbed the door frame and exclaimed exaggeratedly, tremblingly trying to pull her out of the kitchen, and said with a smile, "What are you doing in the kitchen? Are you instructing the maids to work again? Don't be fussy." These trivial matters, relatives are waiting outside to talk to you!"

So the attention of relatives outside was attracted.In any case, a young lady who is obsessed with housekeeping tends to give people the stereotype of "not doing her job properly", which is considered a negative evaluation in the family - after all, only the talented clansmen are keen on housework and clan affairs (for example, Sister Yuexian).

"Sister-in-law." Zheng Qiupei bit her lower lip.Through the perception of possession, Cheng Jinyang knew that she had fully understood the intention of Liu's words, but at this time, Miss Xiaopei did not have any resentment or resentment, only full of grievances and sadness.

She wanted to defend herself, but she didn't want to anger her sister-in-law, so she nodded silently, covered her face and walked out with tears.

Leaving the house, Zheng Qiupei walked alone in the clan field, and came to the clan chief's office without knowing it.

Uncle Zheng Junming usually works here, and only occasionally goes back to his son and daughter-in-law's house for a short stay.Seeing that Zheng Qiupei came in after knocking on the door with a sad expression on his face, he felt a little puzzled and confused.

"What's the matter, Xiaopei?" Zheng Junming motioned her to sit down first.

However, Zheng Qiupei refused to say anything, just shook his head.

After about ten minutes, she said in a low voice:
"uncle."

"Ok?"

"I don't want to compete with my cousin for the position of patriarch's heir." Zheng Qiupei said in a low voice.

Zheng Junming frowned.

He did intend to let Zheng Qiupei adopt his own name, but that was just a preliminary idea. Who was going to gossip in front of Zheng Qiupei?
"Xiao Pei." Zheng Junming picked up a piece of information and said slowly, "Take it and have a look first."

Zheng Qiupei took it in silence, looked at it carefully, and then showed a somewhat surprised expression.

This document shows that Zheng Wengong's second son, the talent result of genealogy appraisal has been improved to the guaranteed fourth rank and the third rank, and the probability of entering the third rank is as high as 35%, which is only 20% lower than himself.

"Uncle, what do you mean?" Zheng Qiupei asked softly.

"I'm still thinking about it." Zheng Junming clasped his hands on the table and said in a deep voice, "My grandson, Dehui...he has the same potential as you to reach the third rank, so he has the qualifications to become the heir of the patriarch. "

"But your probability of entering the third rank is 20% higher than his probability. This is a considerable number. Although the genealogy identification is not necessarily accurate, the actual result will not be known until you are 40 years old, but the patriarch's heir Impossible to wait 30 years to establish, you know what I mean?"

"Understood." Zheng Qiupei bit her lower lip, "If you are still thinking about choosing between me and him, then I am willing to quit."

"You..." Zheng Junming was a little speechless, and said after a while, "Are you unwilling to adopt me?"

"No." Zheng Qiupei shook her head and said, "Uncle treats me very well. I am also very grateful to you if I am a new parent."

"Then you are worried about Wen Gong's attitude towards you?" Zheng Junming frowned again.

"I don't want to cause suspicion in my cousin's family because of this matter." Zheng Qiupei said bitterly, "I don't want to be the patriarch either."

"You have to understand what you gave up." Zheng Junming sighed, "If I establish Dehui as the heir, you can't have a higher bloodline talent than him, and it's still as much as 20%, do you understand? ? This will arouse unnecessary thoughts and ambitions of some clansmen."

"If you choose to give up the position of heir, then the results of your external genealogy appraisal will have to be revised, at least a full level will have to be dropped, and it will become five and four, and you will not be able to reach the third rank... and this will undoubtedly seriously affect your family status. The prestige, status and treatment here, unless you are really promoted to the third rank after the age of 40. You, are you really willing to give up what you originally deserved?"

"Uncle." Zheng Qiupei said seriously, "Prestige, status and treatment, do you think these are more important than family?"

Zheng Junming was speechless for a moment.

After a long while, he held his forehead weakly, and waved weakly with the other hand, indicating that she could leave.

Zheng Qiupei walked out of the patriarch's office silently, came to the window by the corridor, and watched the sunset gradually sinking in the distance.

"I did the right thing," she said to herself.

"I don't have many relatives, and I don't want them to hate me."

"What do you think?" She suddenly looked at the half-open window on the side.

The reflection of the figure on the pane revealed Cheng Jinyang's face.

　Briefly: The genealogical identification results of Zheng Dehui and Zheng Qiupei are all false reports to the outside world (the basic operation of the family).Zheng Dehui is actually 35% sprinting to the third rank, and Zheng Qiupei is 55% sprinting to the third rank.However, Zheng Qiupei's false report to the outside world is to protect five and fight for four, so that before she is 40 years old, it will not affect Zheng Dehui's succession to the position of patriarch. After the age of 40, the position of the patriarch is consolidated, and the relative influence is small.In addition, the bug of age has also been modified. In the plot of this chapter, it is Zheng Wengong's fourth son who holds the full moon wine.Zheng Dehui, the second son who later became the patriarch, was only a few years older than Zheng Qiupei at this time.
