Chapter 65 Stupid thing
I took Shang Xingjian around the house, but didn't get any useful information from Shang Xingjian.
This evening, everyone had a hypocritical meal and casual chat as usual.
Cheng's father ate a few mouthfuls and then went back on the pretext that he was full, and Cheng Mai didn't care.
The servant came over and asked her about planting roses in the backyard. Cheng Mai sneered, "It's almost autumn, what kind of roses should I plant?"
The servant paused, "Sir, he said before that he wanted to plant roses in this open space. The gardener will be here tomorrow."
"I understand, let's wait until the gardener arrives tomorrow." Cheng Mai knew that the servant was telling her what would happen tomorrow in advance to avoid sudden arrivals, but if she didn't know, she would blame them.
The servant responded and went down.
Cheng Mai tapped the table with his fingertips. Lao Cheng wouldn't suddenly want to plant roses. Planting roses is fake. This gardener should have something.
Shang Xingjian's eyes fell on her fingertips pointing at the table, but she kept this habit.
"Hey, tell me." Cheng Mai suddenly clicked his index finger on the table and looked at Shang Xingjian, "I'm here. Cheng Ying hates me so much. He shouldn't come out and strangle me to death right now. How can he be so quiet?"
"How do you know she didn't want to kill you? You can't see her."
After Shang Xingjian finished speaking, Cheng Mai subconsciously looked around.
"So, if you don't have too much skills, it's still not too late to become a disciple."
"No, you can promise that you will protect me." Cheng Mai can see ordinary ghosts, but this kind of ghost trapped in the formation is completely invisible to her.
Thinking of this, Miles Mai subconsciously approached Shang Xingjian, "So, how many dirty things are there in this house?"
Shang Xingjian thought of Cheng Mai's crowded room and how he could catch the kid who was staring at him just by raising his head.
"Not much, not enough to slap General Meng An to death."
Cheng Mai nodded, that shouldn't be much.
Shang Xingjian smiled and said, "What are you going to do tonight?"
"I plan to play chess with Lao Cheng."
"Send it to your door yourself?" Shang Xingjian felt that Cheng Mai had a little bit of skin on his body.
Cheng Mai was noncommittal, "I want to see how Old Cheng is going to commit suicide."
Cheng's father returned to the room and closed the door. Cheng Ying immediately walked out from behind the window, "Dad, hasn't sister left yet?"
Father Cheng frowned, "She can't see you. What are you afraid of her for?"
"But the person next to her is the Taoist priest who came to our home. Dad, does my sister want to take me in? But I have no other ideas. I just want to stay with my father." Cheng Ying cried without tears, "I know I made many mistakes while I was alive, but does my sister really not even give me a chance to correct myself?"
Father Cheng's expression darkened a bit. The more obedient Cheng Ying was, the more he felt that Cheng Mai was ignorant and not filial at all.
"She just came to act for a few days and left after a few days." Father Cheng said displeased, "Don't worry, Dad will definitely do what he promised you. When I sell the shares, I will ask the Supreme Master I will help you to avoid the pain of hell and have a good reincarnation.”
"Thank you, dad." Cheng Ying looked well-behaved, understanding Cheng's father's mood as a father.
But there was disdain in his heart. Father Cheng was very easy to handle, and he could solve things as long as he acted coquettishly. It was a pity that the woman Cheng Mai would never be able to act coquettishly. As long as he gets Cheng's father's money, the Supreme Master can recruit more demons and monsters to deal with Xuanhe Technology. When the time comes, Shang Jian will have no time to take care of himself, and the life of Cheng Mai's woman will be hers.
As night fell, Cheng Mai took the chessboard and pried open Cheng's father's door.
Cheng Ying hid immediately after hearing the sound. Cheng's father opened the door and looked at Cheng Mai coldly, "There is no one at home to see, who are you showing to?"
"Show it to what you can see." Cheng Mai smiled slightly. Something had just been burned in the master bedroom and still smelled of incense. Cheng Mai tilted his neck slightly and saw the paper-cut clothes that had not been burned inside. "This Who is it for? My mother can’t wear such fancy clothes.”
Cheng's father's expression changed and he was about to drive Cheng Mai out, "I'm going to rest. If nothing happens, go back first."
"It's still early. Didn't you like playing chess the most before? I haven't played with you yet, otherwise we would have played a game today." Cheng Mai said and walked in without waiting for Cheng's father to refuse.
Shang Xingjian naturally followed in, "Uncle, excuse me."
Father Cheng stood at the door for a while, then closed the door and went back, "You know how to play chess?"
"I just learned it not long ago." Cheng Mai had already set up the chess game and was waiting for Cheng's father to come over.
Merchant Jian glanced at Cheng Ying, who was full of hatred, and sat down next to Cheng Mai calmly.
Father Cheng also sat down. He taught Cheng Ying how to play chess. He also taught Cheng Mai, but Cheng Mai was too stupid and he gave up later.
"They said you were hiding your capabilities and biding your time before. Why did you do this?" Cheng's father dropped his son and looked at Cheng Mai.
"Do you believe what they say?" Cheng Mai chuckled, "You have selective amnesia for everything Cheng Ying, her daughter, and Butler Liu did before?"
"I believe you are hiding your capabilities and biding your time." Father Cheng said solemnly.
"If I admit that I'm hiding my capabilities and biding my time, can I prove that Cheng Ying is not guilty? Do you really think that if I just say something, she won't have to pay the price for the crime she committed?" Cheng Mai's voice was calm and unhurried, and the white chess piece was in the air. Fingertips twirling.
Cheng's father was speechless, but Cheng Mai could see from the chessboard how fiercely he played chess. She had never thought about leaving a way for herself to survive.
"You can play like this when you just learned to play chess. You are smarter than I thought." Father Cheng had to admit this, but it was a pity that this woman's heart was not towards him.
Cheng Ying saw that no one had noticed him, so he boldly approached them. At this moment, Shang Xingjian suddenly raised his head and looked directly at Cheng Ying. Cheng Ying flinched, but saw Shangxing Jian falling on Cheng Mai's temples. The white hair was picked off.
So this person didn't see her.
Cheng Ying was a little proud. Although he could order something, it was nothing more than that.
So Cheng Ying boldly took a few steps closer, even wanting to bite Cheng Mai.
Cheng Ying's pulse dropped for a moment, but he could feel the cold air even though he couldn't see Cheng Ying.
"If a brain is useful, it must be used by those who can use it. So what if some stupid things really get my brain? Will I end up like a lonely ghost?"
Before Cheng Ying could take a bite, she suddenly looked at Cheng Mai.
Cheng Ying took a step back in shock. Cheng Mai curled her lips and added as he lowered his head, "Even if he is a lonely ghost, he is still a brainless and stupid ghost."
Father Cheng fell down and said with a snap, "When did you become so mean and mean?"
"Is this called being mean?" Cheng Mai slowly raised his head and looked at Cheng's father, "Compared to Cheng Ying, he is even worse." Cheng Mai said, putting down the last son, and said slowly: "Raise a house like this. Dirty thing, can you really sleep at night?”
