[R18] 夫人你馬甲又掉了 – “Madam, Your Vest Has Fallen Off Again” Chapter 414 [English]

414 The imposing Miss Qin blocks Shi Liming (1st update)

After saying that, Butler Cheng said hello to several stewards and walked directly out the door.

After walking around the long corridors on both sides, Butler Cheng looked at the people coming in from the gate.

He put the small notebook in his breast pocket, then stepped forward with a smile and said with flying eyebrows, “Miss Qin.”

Then he said hello to Cheng Wen and Cheng Juan.

“You are here just in time. I will take you to the main courtyard to meet the old man first. He has been talking about you all morning.” Butler Cheng turned sideways and led the way.

Today is a big day. People from all management levels and above in the Cheng family will come back to celebrate the old man’s birthday.

Mr. Cheng would get dressed at eight o’clock every morning and wait in the main room for the heads of the hall and the juniors of the Cheng family.

The two busiest days of the Cheng family every year, except for the first day of the Lunar New Year, are Mr. Cheng’s birthday. The entire Cheng family is full of joy.

Butler Cheng led the way. Qin Ran walked beside Cheng Juan and looked at the wall-painted corridor. The simple and heavy atmosphere hit her face.

The Cheng family only opened up the front half of the large courtyard, and the back was just for decoration, occasionally entertaining guests, and no one could live in it.

In just five minutes, Butler Cheng led the group around corridors one after another and arrived at the main courtyard where Mr. Cheng was.

Today, the old man is wearing a dark blue gown with the word “福” on it. The buttons are buttoned up to the collar vigorously. His hair is combed meticulously, with silver threads mixed in the black hair. His face is full of grooves, and he can see his age, but his dark brown eyes are bright and full of energy.

He was sitting on a black sandalwood chair, talking to the lobby owner with a majestic face.

The old man is old, but his dignity is still there.

The momentum was fierce, and the lobby master carefully considered every word.

The old man didn’t seem to listen. He held the white porcelain teacup in one hand and slowly brushed away the tea powder with the other, looking out the door from time to time.

Not far away, there was a faint voice coming.

“Old…” The lobby master put down his teacup and was about to leave when he saw the old man standing up suddenly and looking out the door.

Although the majesty on his face was still there, his sharp eyes seemed to have softened.

The lobby owner was stunned.

He also stood up quickly and looked outside the door. Who could make the old man’s attitude change so much?

Just as I was thinking about it, Butler Cheng came in from outside the door and bent down slightly: “Master, the eldest young lady, the third young master and Miss Qin are back.”

With that said, he stepped aside to let the three people in.

“Okay,” the old man laughed, excitement evident on his face, “sit down quickly.”

The owner of the lobby also quickly greeted Cheng Wen and Cheng Juan.

I don’t dare to look at other people anymore.

**

On the other side, after Butler Cheng left, several stewards looked at each other.

“Young Master, that Miss Qin…” Someone paused and looked at Cheng Raohan with confusion.

Is Butler Cheng so nervous?Go out and greet him in person?

Cheng Raohan held the tea cup and said casually, “My third brother met a woman outside. You also know that my father dotes on my third brother. He does whatever he wants. It’s my father’s birthday today, and he actually brought her back.”

Listening to Cheng Raohan’s words, the other stewards looked at each other in confusion. They would hear some rumors on weekdays, but none of them took this affair to heart.

It’s normal for young people to act recklessly. When you get older, you’ll naturally know what’s best for you and listen to your family’s arrangements honestly.

Right now…

Cheng Juan actually brought someone back?

There are some rumors circulating in the Cheng family privately. It is said that the woman can’t even read well… How can she be worthy of it…

As a young lady of the Cheng family, at least like Cheng Raohan, you should marry a well-matched woman who can control the situation.

If he chooses a submissive and petty woman… wouldn’t this be a joke to the entire Forty-nine Cities?

Regarding the “Miss Qin” next to Cheng Juan, no one knows better than Cheng Raohan, because he has a good relationship with Ouyang Wei. He inquired a little bit from Ouyang Wei and got more accurate information. The earliest rumor was that it was a poverty alleviation county.

This kind of person has not been trained by the children of aristocratic families, and has not been specially trained in etiquette like Cheng Wenru. He cannot even maintain his momentum…

Someone comes in outside the door.

Cheng Raohan was not interested in the woman Cheng Juan brought back. He just turned slightly sideways, lowered his voice, covered the corners of his mouth with a tea cup, lowered his voice, and asked the men who just came in: “Is Mr. Shi Liming here?”

He has been waiting until now since he got up early in the morning, knowing that Shi Liming and others will definitely come over to celebrate the old man’s birthday.

After waiting for more than an hour, the real owner was not found.

“Not yet,” the subordinate lowered his head, “Soon.”

Cheng Raohan looked back and nodded slightly.

Since Shi Liming hasn’t come yet, Cheng Raohan is not in a hurry. He puts down the tea cup, stands up, and looks at the stewards very leisurely: “How many young people are coming with me to visit the school grounds?”

One person stood up and said respectfully: “We are going to the main courtyard to visit the eldest lady and the third young master. Will the eldest young master come with us?”

Cheng Wenru and Cheng Juan did not live at home, and the stewards only saw each other a few times a year.

When the two of them come back, the steward will definitely pay them a visit.

Moreover… these people also want to see what kind of people Cheng Juan brought back.

After all, this “Miss Qin” has been rumored in everyone’s mouth for so long, and no one has ever seen it. Butler Cheng’s attitude also aroused their curiosity before. Now that there is an opportunity, this manager is naturally a little curious.

Seeing that they all wanted to go together, Cheng Raohan shook his head, half-smiling but not smiling: “You guys go first, I’ll go to the school grounds.”

The men followed Cheng Raohan out the door, “Young master, why don’t we go to the main courtyard to see the eldest lady and the third young master?”

“There’s nothing to see.” Cheng Raohan said calmly, “Let’s go.”

He passed through the side room and walked towards the school grounds behind.

Cheng Raohan was so anxious about Shi Liming that he was not interested in seeing the woman from nowhere that Cheng Juan brought back.

Several stewards in the lobby waited for Cheng Raohan to leave and then went to the main courtyard. “The third young master has always acted strangely. I am curious about what kind of woman he brought back…”

The stewards were talking as they walked in the direction of the old man.

In less than three minutes, the group arrived at the old man’s main courtyard.

“Master, eldest lady, third young master.” A group of stewards bent down and saw this group of people one by one.

After saluting, the stewards stood up and sat next to the main hall master.

As soon as he sat down, he saw the woman sitting opposite Cheng Juan, and the hands of several stewards holding teacups froze.

The woman was talking to the old man, her voice was not loud, neither urgent nor slow.

Even though the entire lobby was filled with senior members of the Cheng family, she didn’t show any signs of stage fright, but her sitting posture was a bit arrogant, with her legs crossed and her long white fingers holding the tea cup as if they were cold jade.

His head was half lowered, his eyebrows slightly raised, bold and sharp.

Just outside, I heard Cheng Raohan talk about the woman Cheng Juan had brought back, and he looked down on her very much in his words…

But… After several stewards sat across from Miss Qin, they had a certain degree of improvement in Miss Qin’s image in their hearts. Not to mention other things, Mr. Cheng still had a sharp aura that was neither humble nor overbearing when facing the lobby master…

There are not many celebrities in the entire capital circle.

It’s different from the eldest young master’s description…

“Dad, please greet the guests first. I’ll take Ranran to see my private room.” Cheng Wenru drank a cup of tea. She was afraid that Qinran would be impatient to listen to some of the greetings of the hall master in charge, so she put the teacup on the table and spoke.

Mr. Cheng is happy today, beaming with joy. He waved his hand: “Okay, you two will play with Ran Ran first. By the way, Butler Cheng, prepare a hand stove for Ran Ran and take out the cloaks from my warehouse. Wen Ru, take Ran Ran to see the things on the school ground…”

Cheng Wenru was worried that Qin Ran wouldn’t get used to it, and Mr. Cheng was naturally worried too.

After all, they all know that Qin Ran is a research brain, and Cheng Juan also told them that she doesn’t like to get involved in relationships that are too complicated.

He warned Butler Cheng several times before letting them leave.

In the hall, several stewards had slightly strange expressions on their eyebrows. It seemed that the old man really liked this Miss Qin.

**

Cheng Wenru explained to Qin Ran while taking Qin Ran to her private room.

“Don’t listen to her,” Cheng Juan took the fox fur cloak handed over by the housekeeper, passed it around his back and put it on Qinran Street, tying the belt slowly with his long fingertips, “There is so much history, the house has been renovated countless times.”

Cheng Wenru was about to argue with he, when the cell phone in his pocket rang.

She took it out and saw a message.

After reading it, Cheng Wenru frowned. She turned sideways and looked at Cheng Juan. She didn’t think Qin Ran was an outsider. She lowered her voice and said in a serious tone, “Third brother, that Shi Liming has arrived. The eldest brother blocked him in the school yard. Are you really not going to meet him?”
