Chapter 118: Suspicion

Zhou Heng made Mrs. Zhang happy, had lunch in Xinglin Hutong, and then went home.

Next, Cui Keyin stayed with Mrs. Zhang every day, and she had less time to meet Zhou Heng. The wedding date of the two is getting closer and closer, and there are a lot of things to prepare, and the Jiang family is so busy that they have to ask Mrs. Zhang to look at it from time to time, and ask for instructions before it falls on the dowry list.

In June, Su's dowry arrived. Because of the proper management, the dowry of 8,000 taels more than ten years ago has increased to more than 19,000 taels at this time, and the Jiang family took out the private money and made up the whole number, which is 20,000 silver.

In July, Su Zichu, the third brother of the Su family, was transferred back to the capital. As the saying goes, seeing your uncle is like seeing your mother, and now that the Su family is gone, when Cui Keyin visited her third uncle, she cried so sadly.

Su Zichu looked at Cui Keyin carefully for a long time, turned around and bowed to Cui Zhenyi, and said, "Thank you Brother Shuping for teaching your niece over the years." ”

Back then, the Su family wanted to take Cui Keyin back to his hometown in Meizhou to raise him on the grounds that Cui Zhenjing and his wife died early and Cui Keyin was young and had no one to teach. The Cui family naturally refused, and for this reason, Su Zichu's fifth brother Su Ziming almost fought with Cui Zhenduan. In the end, Mrs. Zhang threatened with death, and the Su family was afraid of causing trouble, so they had to give up.

Over the years, during the New Year's holidays, the Su family will definitely travel thousands of miles from Meizhou to give Cui Keyin New Year's gifts, and uncles and aunts have gifts for Cui Keyin.

The Cui family naturally wants to prepare a return gift. Therefore, the two families did not stop moving.

Seeing that Cui Keyin was so beautiful, with a demure temperament and elegant manners, Su Zichu couldn't help but sincerely thank Cui Zhenyi. Over the years, how worried they have been about Cui Keyin's situation. It's really not an outsider.

Cui Zhenyi returned the salute, his eyes couldn't help but redden, and said: "There are many juniors in the family, and my mother is the only one who teaches Keyin carefully. Now that she has grown up and is about to get married soon, her mother can also pay this burden. ”

Su Zichu was not allowed to enter and then thanked Mrs. Zhang.

After more than ten years of hard work, she was finally affirmed by the Su family, and Mrs. Zhang burst into tears.

Su Zichu's wife, Lu Shi, held Cui Keyin's hand tightly and said, "I want Keyin to stay with us for a few days." Over the years, several old men have always talked about her, and they are really worried. It's a pity that we haven't been able to see each other. ”

Inaccessibility is one reason; Everyone is out as an official. Not being able to leave your post without permission is one reason; Cui Keyin is a weak girl, so naturally she can't run around on the road. Therefore, they actually met Cui Keyin in the year of Su's death, and they have not been able to see each other again.

Mrs. Zhang said: "When you are settled, it is not too late to pick her up." ”

A few days passed. The Lu family came to pick up Cui Keyin and went to Sufu to live. Their mansion is in the innermost part of Elm Alley.

Lu Shi asked her carefully how the Cui family had treated her over the years. He mentioned Su again: "Back then, you were young and ignorant, but you have heard of it all these years." Why did your mother commit suicide? ”

This matter has always been a mystery in their hearts. Su Zichu once suspected that the Cui family was killed because of Cui Zhenjing's early death, so he forced the Su family to death.

Cui Keyin understood that this was the purpose of the Lu family to take her over to live in the house.

She said cautiously: "When I was young, I only remember that my mother hugged me and cried and cried, and then asked the nurse to carry me out. ”

No wonder Su Jiajian wanted to take her back to raise Meizhou, it turned out to be suspicious.

Lu Shi frowned and was silent, Cui Keyin's answer was obviously not satisfactory.

Cui Keyin lived in Yushu Hutong for two days, and Jiang came to pick her up.

Lu originally wanted Cui Keyin to stay for a few more days, but Jiang smiled and said: "Keyin's ceremony is almost here, I have to make new clothes, and the tailor is already waiting in the house." ”

It's just that I'm afraid that Cui Keyin will live for a long time and say something that shouldn't be said. Lu's belly sneered, loaded two carts with large bags and small bags, and sent Cui Keyin back to Xinglin Hutong.

Because there was only a two-day difference between the ceremony and the marriage, the Cui family did not make a big deal, and only invited Su Zichu's wife Lu, Gu Ming's wife Li and a few other relatives. It was Mrs. Zhang who inserted the hairpin for Cui Keyin, Zhang Yu was invited, and the praiser was Su Zichu's youngest daughter, Cui Keyin's cousin Su Di.

Su Di is 16 years old this year, and when Cui Keyin goes back to live in Yushu Hutong, the two often talk together. Most of the time, it was Su Di who said it, and Cui Keyin listened.

Licheng, Su Di quietly complained to Cui Keyin: "You're about to get married, and we won't have a chance to play together in the future." ”

She has a good impression of this cousin who is willing to listen to her and listens very carefully.

Cui Keyin didn't have time to speak, and Lu Shi had already shouted: "You talk a lot!" ”

Su Di stuck out her tongue and made a grimace, causing all the female guests to laugh.

Cui Keyin envied her, only a person who grew up under her parents' knees since she was a child and was spoiled by her parents could be so innocent. Why didn't she want to be naΓ―ve? Fortunately, she has a grandmother who loves and cares for her.

Seeing off the guests, Mrs. Zhang gave Cui Keyin a good advice.

Tonight is the red bean shift, and she is clumsily laying out the futon. Cui Keyin was about to go to bed, when Jiang came, took the red beans out, closed the door, took out a book from his sleeve, and said, "You have a look." ”

A villain book with a picture of goblin fights.

Cui Keyin flipped through the pages, read it quietly, looked up at Jiang Shi and didn't speak.

Jiang Shi was stunned by her, and hesitated: "If you don't understand anything, just ask." ”

Seeing her so calm, isn't it...... Thinking that Zhou Heng ran here two times in three days, it was not impossible for the two of them to do that shameless thing, and they couldn't help but feel a little resentful about Zhou Heng in their hearts. Where is he like this, where does Cui Keyin go?

But I heard Cui Keyin say calmly: "I don't understand at all, auntie, please tell me from the beginning." ”

Jiang almost fainted, I didn't understand why you didn't blush, how could a girl not blush when she looked at this thing.

After she talked about it in detail, she blushed and said that her mouth was dry, Cui Keyin still looked calm, like listening to her grandmother say how much is a pound of fish in the market. She suddenly became angry and didn't want to say anything, so she said with a straight face: "Do you understand? ”

Cui Keyin nodded: "One thing I understand." ”

"The prince must have watched the Buddha of Joy, you don't have to do anything, just don't make a fuss." Jiang said impetuously.

I also thought that if Cui Keyin was so calm at that time, I don't know how the new aunt would feel. Thinking about it this way, it seems that Cui Keyin is not so angry. She made up her own mind, and when she thought of the ridiculousness, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Cui Keyin was inexplicable and said, "What is the eldest aunt laughing at?" ”

"Uh...... Nothing, nothing. Jiang stood up in a good mood and said, "It's late at night, you can rest early, you have to be busy tomorrow." ”

Cui Keyin sent Jiang's out of Huayuexuan, went back to the room to read the album again, and rested.

The next day was the day of the hypnotic makeup, and the Xinglin Hutong was bustling.

Cui Keyin's wedding day has finally arrived. (To be continued......)
