On the birthday party of Mrs. Cheng, there were many distinguished guests visiting Cheng's mansion, including many prominent families and even princes and grandchildren. At this time, the "Jiaodong Yuan Family" attracted Cheng Shaoshang's attention. He saw that the other party was a handsome and elegant man, not only knowing etiquette, but also being generous. Everyone else knew that Mr. Yuan was famous and quite scheming. It was really elusive to come here uninvited.
Mr. Yuan went to the side courtyard alone. Sure enough, he met Cheng Shaoshang, who had met once that night. The two met because of hydrangeas, and now they met again is a fate. Ling Buyi learned that Princess Yuchang also sent a post to the Cheng family's relatives, so he decided to go to the Ruyang Palace that night. On the other hand, after Cheng Shaoshang and Cheng Yin were dressed up, they were no less than noble girls in famous families.
On the day of Princess Yuchang's birthday, the female family members from all families left with gifts, and even made words at the banquet to tease Cheng Shaoshang grew up in Zhuangzi and had never seen such a world. At this time, Shiyilang, who was famous in Kyoto, suddenly visited and said that he was very proud of his birthday. Princess Yuchang felt very proud and inevitably mocked Cheng Shaoshang. How could Ling Buyi confessed to Cheng Shaoshang in public and expressed his admiration for him?
Through this incident, Cheng Shaoshang was completely famous among the many female family members, and some even more were full of malicious intentions towards him and were ready to seek revenge. Mr. Yuan found Cheng Shaoshang in the princess's mansion, and deliberately led her to the courtyard corridor to peek at a lover of a noble family. The daughter threatened Cheng Shaoshang with her cousin and wanted to push Cheng Shaoshang down the pond. Unexpectedly, Cheng Shaoshang saw through the strategy and took the initiative.
Cheng Shaoshang passed by the courtyard and happened to meet Ling Buyi. He only found out the other party's identity when he talked with him. He said, "You treat me with a national hero, and I will repay him with a national hero." My cousin couldn't sleep at night, so she simply talked to Cheng Shaoshang about family matters and looked forward to her future life. Compared to Cheng Shaoshang's desire to live a stable life, his cousin is not willing to be mediocre and hopes to find a great hero who can trust his life and live up to his life. Little did they know that the conversation between the two people had long fallen into the ears of the two people with heart, each with different thoughts.
Ling Buyi took Cheng Shaoshang to Macheng to practice riding, but Cheng Shaoshang politely refused Ling Buyi's approach on the grounds that men and women were not allowed to be close. But Ling Buyi mentioned what he said at the Princess's Mansion that day, saying that he had long admired Cheng Shaoshang, but unfortunately Cheng Shaoshang had no feelings for him.
On the other hand, the third master Cheng Zhi is a beautiful man who is only about thirty years old. He has handsome eyebrows and eyes, as bright as green mountains. The woman beside him is the daughter of Bailu Mountain Lord, and his words and deeds are gentle and dignified, which makes Cheng Shaoshang have a good impression of him. However, this marriage was brought by Cheng Zhi, so Mrs. Cheng knew that her son was high and still didn't like Sang Shunhua. At the feast, all kinds of dishes were prepared. Old Mrs. Cheng's enthusiasm was like a fire, but it was just burning Cheng Zhi. She didn't even realize that her daughter-in-law would occasionally respond when Sang Shunhua bowed, and most of the time she ignored it. Cheng Shaoshang couldn't hide his gossip, and implicitly turned to his two brothers, whispering to him, mostly understanding the causes and consequences.
Cheng Shaoshang felt sorry for his second uncle who buried himself for more than ten years, and he was all thinking about his family. How could he know that Old Mrs. Cheng did not feel any pity. Everyone knows what snob is, but as parents, they will also be snobs towards their children. If parents judge people by their appearance and power, it is really not worthy of respect. Xiao Yuanyi accidentally caught a glimpse of the three brothers and sisters having a good chat, so she asked Cheng Song and Cheng Shaogong to care more about Cheng Yan, which made the atmosphere a little awkward.
On the night of the reunion, Xiao Yuanyi took Cheng Yan to handle housework, arranged it properly from the inside out, and prepared items to worship ancestors and gods. Seeing Cheng Yin so skillful and sensible, Xiao Yuanyi felt that Cheng Shaoshang was becoming more and more unsatisfied. He happened to Cheng Shaoshang and came back from outside with his brother. He was instantly lost interest and turned back to the room in disappointment.
Chengyang Hou Mansion held a banquet to entertain guests. However, Ling Buyi suddenly visited and had a bad intention. He asked Ling Yi where his mother was.Chunyu was not Ling Buyi's biological mother. Before she could speak, Princess Yuchang followed her, looking at Ling Buyi with love with her beautiful eyes, not even afraid of his alienation, and perseveringly expressing her feelings.
Ling Buyi was alone in Xinghua Villa Villa missing his mother. When he saw a lantern by chance, he immediately thought of the lighting lamp made by Xu Jinzhong, thinking that this would be an important clue. The Liang brothers took the lanterns without any problem. Ling Buyi heard that the lanterns on the Shangyuan Festival were all paired, so he understood that Xu Jinzhong passed on the lanterns to the buyer through the lanterns and decided to go to the Shangyuan Festival Lantern Festival in person.
Fu Guanfu, who is responsible for serving Cheng Yan, thinks that she is too sensible and will suffer a big loss sooner or later. After all, everyone knows that Old Lady Cheng prefers boys over girls, and now that the second wife is in decline, if Cheng Yin does not consolidate his position, he will probably never have a chance to make a comeback. Therefore, Fu Guanfu and his maid Changpu secretly discussed that he must win the limelight for his master.
The two brothers and Cheng Shaoshang didn't have much time to get along, but they already wanted to get close to each other. Seeing that the book case was too short, Cheng Shaogong gave it to Cheng Shaoshang the book case he gave to him. Originally, Lianfang was ordered to pick up the book case, but he knew that he encountered calamus on the way, so he directly ordered someone to carry it to Chengyin's study on the grounds of checking the style.
