He Shi's face changed suddenly, and the anger in his heart surged up: "Wan Niang, didn't we say it before?" Why are you confused at this juncture? If Jingniang really gave birth to a son, even if she was raised in your name, she is the child's biological mother after all. Can my uncle not look at her? Besides, when the child grows up in the future, he will also think about his biological mother, and he will have a relationship with you, the mother-in-law. When the time comes, what are you going to do, what are you going to do with Sister Qiao'er? ”

The more He Shi spoke, the more angry he became, and his tone became tougher: "You don't care about this matter, you can't do this if you are soft-hearted, so I will arrange it for you." ”

Cui Wan looked up at He Shi, and said apologetically but resolutely: "No, I don't agree." ”

He Shiqi's temples jumped suddenly, and his face was extremely ugly: "Don't be stupid, if you really wait until that day, you won't even be able to cry ...... days."

"Mother, I've thought about all the qiē you said." Cui Wan said quietly: "I have also wavered. In those days, I always had nightmares all night and couldn't sleep, and as soon as I closed my eyes, I would think of Jingniang lying in a pool of blood screaming. It was a terrible sight. If I did, I would have a troubled conscience for the rest of my life. ”

He frowned and retorted: "What are you afraid of if you have some nightmares for a while, after a long time, it will naturally get better." What you have to think about is how to keep your position and your uncle's favor. ”

Cui Wan said earnestly: "Mother, I know that you are for my good." But I really don't want to do that. Xianggong is very good to me, and Jingniang is also self-contained, and will never compete with me for anything in the future......"

"That's because she hasn't given birth to a son yet." He glared at her: "She is now at peace because she is not qualified to compete with you for favor." When she has a child and has the confidence to compete with you for favor, you don't want to have a comfortable life in the future. Uncle is good to you now, but no one can say what will happen in the future. Jing Niang is younger than you, and she is beautiful and gentle. It's hard to guarantee that my uncle won't favor her side in the future. At that time, you and Sister Qiao'er will have a hard time. ”

"Even if that day does come in the future, I will never regret it." Cui Wan's voice was still soft, but the decisiveness of her tone was clearly visible.

He couldn't be clearer about his daughter's soft and rigid temperament, and knowing that she said this means that there is no room for negotiation in this matter. For a while, I was angry and annoyed, and I hated that iron could not be made of steel: "You...... You're so mad at me. ”

Cui Wan saw that He Shiqi's face was blue, and her heart was quite uncomfortable, so she bowed her head and said nothing.

There was a suffocating silence in the room. Only the sound of Ho's unsteady breathing was heard. Right now. There was a knock on the door.

He was in a very bad mood, and asked impatiently, "Who is it?" ”

"Mother, it's me." A clear teenage voice rang out outside the door. Hear the voice. He's complexion suddenly eased: "Yu'er come in!" ”

Cui Yu pushed the door and walked in, seeing that He Shi's face was unhappy, and he was secretly strange in his heart. Seeing the eldest sister Cui Wan bowing her head and not speaking, she was even more surprised. I couldn't help but ask, "Mother, eldest sister." What were you talking about? ”

He Shi smiled calmly: "I'm discussing the matter of marrying a daughter-in-law for you in the future!" ”

Cui Yunen's face flushed, and he really didn't ask any more.

Cui Wan also came back to her senses, and cooperated with He Shi to open the topic: "The girl that my mother just said, I think it's very good." The second brother is not young, so it is better to invite the official media to come to the door in a few days to propose marriage. ”

……

Cui Yu's heart fluttered and fluttered, and his ears were red. But he unconsciously erected his ears. lest I miss a word.

Seeing Cui Yu's appearance, He deliberately smiled: "Yes, I also think that the third lady in Lord Wang's mansion is good......"

What the? The third lady in the Wang's mansion? Cui Yu was taken aback. But he didn't dare to say anything, and his face was red. This time I'm not shy, and the beads of sweat are coming out.

He and Cui Wan both laughed. Very tacitly pressed the previous unpleasant disputes to the bottom of my heart temporarily.

"Okay, I'm not going to tease you." Cui Wan smiled: "What we just discussed was the tenth young lady of Changyuan Bofu. I don't know if you are satisfied with this family business? ”

Cui Yu completely experienced the excitement of riding a roller coaster, and suddenly rose from the bottom to mid-air. fluttering didn't know what to say, just kept nodding vigorously.

Even though He was in a gloomy mood, he was amused: "Look at your stupid and unproductive appearance." I don't know how to solve the yuan. ”

Cui Wan said with a smile: "The second brother is simple and simple-minded, talented and diligent in reading, and it is not strange that Zhong Jieyuan is not surprised." Maybe next year, I can take another top exam and come back! ”

He Shi was indescribably comfortable when he heard this, and deliberately teased Cui Yu: "Yes, where do you have to worry about his family affairs when the time comes." I'm afraid that there are many matchmakers who take the initiative to come to the door to say kiss. We just have to keep our eyes open and pick a good one. ”

Cui Yu immediately became nervous, and Ai Ai said, "Mother, I ......" I couldn't say half a word for a long time.

Cui Wan couldn't help but laugh: "Mother, this is teasing you!" How can you still take it seriously. When you pass the spring exam next year, your mother will naturally take care of your family affairs for you. Don't worry about that, just concentrate on your schoolwork and prepare for spring. ”

Cui Yu responded with a red face, and unexpectedly remembered the pretty face of Hibiscus who was happy and hateful, and his heart was pounding again.

Ye Qinglan waited in the side hall for a long time before seeing Cui Wan and He Shi come out. Behind him is today's protagonist Cui Yu. Cui Yu was excited because of the words just now, but he didn't dare to look at Ye Qinglan directly.

Cui Wan's face had regained calm, and there was nothing wrong with her face at all. Not to mention He's kung fu to hide his thoughts. greeted everyone with a smile: "The troupe is almost ready, let's go over to watch the play." ”

Ye Qinglan is actually not very interested in watching dramas, but it is quite interesting for a bunch of female dependents to sit together and gossip. She sat next to Cui Wan and basically didn't interject much, just pricked up her ears to listen.

Cui Yu sat beside He and quietly glanced at Ye Qinglan from time to time. It's a pity that in front of everyone, I didn't have a chance to lean over and speak......

He glanced at him and said with a smile: "If you don't want to watch the play, just go to your father and brother-in-law and talk to them." ”

Cui Yu is willing to go. Even if you don't have a chance to speak, it's good to take a few more glances at this close distance.

The stage babbled and sang, and everyone stopped talking and watched the play intently. The loud voice is the best cover-up, but it is convenient to whisper.

Ye Qinglan approached Cui Wan intentionally or unintentionally, lowered her voice and asked, "Sister-in-law, did my aunt tell you something just now?" Cui Wan's eyebrows have a hint of gloom that can be hidden from others, but they can't hide it from her.

Cui Wan smiled bitterly and replied in a low voice: "Mother wanted me to bring a few midwives to Jingniang, but I refused. ”

And so it was!

Ye Qinglan frowned quickly, and immediately stretched her brows. It's terrible that the women in the house are ruthless. A fresh life, in He's eyes, has become light, wantonly want to cut off. has such a powerful mother-in-law, no wonder Cui Yu's biological mother died early.

Cui Wan was also in a chaotic mood, but it was inconvenient to talk deeply here and now, so she whispered, "I'll talk to you when I go back" and stopped.

watched a play for an afternoon and had dinner again, and Cui Wan and Ye Yuanwei said goodbye.

He personally sent his daughter and son-in-law to the door, and while Ye Yuanwei and Cui Yu were talking, he quickly said to Cui Wan: "Wanniang, don't be stupid, go back and think about my words." If you figure it out, send me a message. ”

Cui Wan nodded perfunctorily, but she knew very well in her heart that she would never send someone to Cui's mansion to deliver this message.

He still wanted to say something, but it was difficult to open his mouth because of the number of people, so he had to sigh helplessly.

Ye Qinglan silently took in He's expression, and she didn't know what it was like in her heart. From the moment Cui Wan heard He's words, she completely lost her affection for this ruthless He. But if you stand in He's position, it seems that there is nothing wrong with doing so.

In He's heart, the happiness of his daughter Cui Wan is the most important. But did she ever think that Cui Jing was also another woman's daughter? That woman is also looking forward to her daughter Cui Jing's happy and safe life?

The harmony between wives and concubines is actually just a complete joke. What woman doesn't want to monopolize her husband's affection?

Fortunately, Cui Wan finally woke up from a nightmare and would not make a wrong decision that she would regret for the rest of her life. I hope that the He family can also stop here and stop persecuting Cui Wan anymore.

Cui Yu hesitated for a moment, and finally mustered up the courage to come over: "Tenth sister, take care." I'll go see you when I'm free. ”

Ye Qinglan smiled faintly: "There are still a few months before the spring season, you concentrate on reviewing your books and preparing for the exam." Don't be distracted and come to see me. ”

The words are gentle and polite, but slightly distant.

Cui Yu sensitively noticed that Ye Qinglan's feelings were different, and looked at Ye Qinglan in confusion. The lantern hanging at the gate of Cui's Mansion emitted a soft orange-red light, and Ye Qinglan's face was calm, making it impossible to see what she was thinking.

Even if Cui Yu wanted to break his head, he would never guess what Ye Qinglan was thinking.

With a mother-in-law like He's, Cui Yu can't help but discount no matter how good she is. She didn't want a mother-in-law like He's. Besides, Cui Yu has always been filial and obedient. Even if he has the heart to never accept a concubine, if He opens his mouth, can he refuse?

was originally a little shaken, but at this time it became cold. Cui Yu may be a good match, but with such a mother-in-law as He's, it is really unbearable.

After Ye Qinglan got into the carriage, she didn't look outside.

Cui Yu stood in place, watching the carriage drift away, and his heart was empty.
