rebirth will be hard to find

Chu Yi didn't know why Cheng Zian was suddenly fined to kneel in the ancestral hall, and he only guessed that it might have something to do with Lu Qun's matter, but Zhang Dai told her this morning that the Marquis of Changping couldn't find anyone.She was full of questions and wanted to ask Cheng Zian, but one person and one cat couldn't understand each other. No matter how many times she "meowed", it was impossible for the boy Zian to know what she was asking.

Cheng Zian seemed to be especially silent tonight. Although he held the cat in his arms and rubbed his face affectionately, he only said that sentence at the beginning from the beginning to the end, and he was speechless after that.

Chu Yi looked up and looked around. Apart from the portraits of the ancestors of the Cheng family, there were rows of spiritual tablets.

The atmosphere was really gloomy, and Chu Yi shivered for no reason.Although she had already died once, she was still afraid of places like ancestral halls where ancestors were enshrined, especially when the people around her were so abnormal.

Chu Yi was feeling uncomfortable, but the cat's ears suddenly turned and heard a slight noise.The voice seemed to come from outside the ancestral hall, it was very slight, but it seemed to be amplified infinitely in such a night...

"Meow—" a meow suddenly sounded in the ancestral hall.

Cheng Zian was startled by the cat's sudden voice, but the next moment he heard a crash outside.It's just that it's different from the cat cub he scares himself, as soon as he hears it, he can tell that it's a man-made movement.

someone is coming!

Cheng Zian frowned slightly, and immediately put the cat in his arms on the ground, and patted her buttocks, signaling her to find a place to hide.

Mao Zai'er gritted her teeth as usual, and she found that the boy Zi'an's slapping her buttocks seemed to be getting smoother and smoother.But now she can't do anything except baring her teeth. Sometimes she is worried, what if she gets used to his butt slapping like she is used to the name "Xiao Hei"?

Really, it's embarrassing to think about it.

Mao Zai'er hid with a mask that couldn't see the blush, and Cheng Zian looked away when she saw that she was well hidden.There were already clear footsteps outside the ancestral hall, and he listened intently for a moment before guessing who it was.

Sure enough, Mrs. Cheng soon appeared outside the ancestral hall.

She was wearing a dark shirt that she didn't often wear, which was very hidden in the dark night, and the footsteps along the way were very light, and it was almost difficult to attract the attention of others.If she was not the serious master of the Cheng family, and came to see Cheng Zian in a place like the ancestral hall, she would look like a thief.

But for Mrs. Cheng, she really came to the ancestral hall with the mentality of a thief, because Mrs. Cheng's majesty in the Cheng family cannot be challenged.

"Ajie?" Mrs. Cheng stood outside the ancestral hall and called out softly, as if she was afraid of disturbing Cheng Zian who was kneeling as punishment.

Cheng Zian still knelt upright on the futon in front of the desk, looked back at the sound, then nodded slightly at Madam Cheng, and called out: "Mother."

Mrs. Cheng couldn't remember when the relationship between their mother and son became so cold. In Cheng Zian's mouth, she became an alienated "mother" instead of the former "mother".But she could only watch such a change, unable to find a way to change it.

Stepping into the house, Mrs. Cheng's footsteps were still very shallow, as if she was worried about alarming others.Although in this deserted and gloomy ancestral hall, apart from Cheng Zian who was kneeling upright, the only living thing was the black cat hiding in the corner.

Mrs. Cheng brought a small package, which contained a small hand stove that could be used until dawn, and a small package of pastries.She handed the things to Cheng Zian, but Cheng Zian didn't seem to want to take it, but before he could refute, Mrs. Cheng stuffed the stove and pastries into his hand, and at the same time tried the temperature of his palm.

Surprisingly, it wasn't cold.

Mrs. Cheng was surprised and at the same time relieved a lot, so she didn't get to the bottom of it, but she couldn't help but care about Cheng Zian being punished to kneel in the ancestral hall for the first time in her life.So after thinking about it, she chose to ask directly: "Ajie, your grandmother only told me that she punished you to kneel in the ancestral hall, but why did she punish you?"

Cheng Zian pursed his lips and didn't want to answer.

He didn't tell anyone about liking Chu Jingmo.Li Lin could guess because he asked him to find out a lot about Chu Jingmo, so naturally he couldn't hide it after a long time.As for Mrs. Cheng, Cheng Zian felt that her grandmother was omnipotent, so there was nothing she didn't know.But facing his mother, he couldn't calmly express this emotion.

Cheng Zian lowered his head and did not answer.Unexpectedly, after the silence lasted for a while, Mrs. Cheng spoke surprisingly: "Is it because of Jingmo? You broke Lu Qun's leg."

The first half of the sentence is still an inquiry, but the second half of the sentence has already been confirmed.Cheng Zian was taken aback by these words. When he raised his head, his eyes opened wider than usual. The warm brown eyes seemed to be able to speak, and he silently asked Mrs. Cheng why she knew?

Mrs. Cheng obviously understood Cheng Zian's eyes. She sighed silently, raised her hand and touched Cheng Zian's head: "Mother, why do you think I can't see it?"

Cheng Zian, who was being touched on the head, seemed a little uncomfortable, and he slightly turned his face away from looking at Mrs. Cheng.In fact, just like Mrs. Cheng didn't understand why the relationship between them was alienated, Cheng Zian didn't quite understand why he couldn't get close to his mother when he grew up.Sometimes he thought, maybe he still has resentment in his heart?

Cheng Zian's thoughts drifted away, but Mrs. Cheng continued: "I know that you have always been very considerate in everything you do. If you dare to break Lu Qun's legs, the Marquis of Changping will definitely not be able to find you. Then you know, Why is your grandmother still punishing you?"

No matter how steady and mature Cheng Zian is, he is only a 14-year-old boy.Although Mrs. Cheng asked him to kneel in the ancestral hall as punishment, he came without the slightest complaint, but when he knelt in front of the ancestral tablet, he might not have no dissatisfaction in his heart.It's just that he suddenly knew that his little thoughts had been known by his grandmother, and he was more flustered, so he didn't think more.

But now that Mrs. Cheng already knows that he likes Chu Jingmo, Cheng Zian doesn't have to hide it anymore. Hearing this, he said frankly: "I fell in love with Sister Mo and caused trouble for her. Grandma didn't like it, so she punished me." .”

Mrs. Cheng shook her head when she heard the words: "Things that no one can find out are not called causing trouble, and the Cheng family doesn't pay attention to such trivial matters, and your grandmother won't break a dude's leg just because of you." Go to war."

She said this quite capriciously, and the meaning of protecting her shortcomings was also fully expressed.Not to mention Cheng Zian's face full of surprise, even the cat who was hiding in the dark couldn't help poking his head out, wanting to meet this willful and domineering Mrs. Cheng.

However, after only two seconds of domineering, Mrs. Cheng sighed again: "Ajie, you are already fourteen, and your grandmother always said that in two years' time, she will send you to the border to join the army." After she finished speaking, she paused , and then said again: "Actually, I never expected you to be glorious, and your grandmother is the same, but as a child, there are some things you have to do. I know that the path we chose for you is not easy, and because of this, you You need to be more cautious, more careful, a momentary impulse may destroy you."

Cheng Zian's beating is a trivial matter, even if Changping Hou finds out, Mrs. Cheng is capable of settling it for him.But such impulsivity is not a good habit, Mrs. Cheng needs him to be more calm, because in this way he can go further.And Chu Jingmo is not a key figure, but she has influenced Cheng Zian's actions.

After saying this, Mrs. Cheng didn't say anything else, she just told Cheng Zian to use the hand stove when it was cold, and eat some pastries when she was hungry, and then left as quietly as when she came.

Chu Yi ran to Cheng Zian's side again from the corner, and was hugged by the boy again.After receiving a piece of pastry, she heard the other party whisper: "Are you impulsive? But there is only this I can do for her..."
