Who's coming? A trace of doubt flashed in Ye Qinglan's eyes.

Cui Wan was very familiar with the footsteps, and a trace of panic flashed in her eyes. The footsteps are getting closer and closer, and it's too late to cover them up. What to do?

The person who came didn't give Cui Wan time to react at all, and pushed the door open.

Cui Wan reflexively lowered her head.

The light in the room was dim, Cui Wan lowered her head again, and the handsome young man who walked in suddenly didn't notice Cui Wan's strange appearance for a while, and said with a smile: "Wan Niang, why don't you say a word to me when you come back." I was looking for you everywhere just now. ”

The person who came, of course, was the male owner of Qinfangyuan, and he was also the head of the Changyuan Mansion, Sun Ye Yuanwei. His voice was as gentle as ever, with a hint of concern.

Cui Wan's grievances, which had been suppressed, suddenly surfaced in her heart again. This time, she suddenly didn't want to endure it anymore and pretended to be nothing, and looked up at her husband.

Ye Yuanwei's smiling eyes and Cui Wan's aggrieved and desolate gaze met in the air, first startled, and then asked without thinking: "Wanniang, what's wrong with you?" ”

Her hair was disheveled, her eyes were red and swollen, and her face was pale, clearly after a painful cry.

Cui Wan's lips trembled, but she didn't say anything, and tears unconsciously slipped from the corners of her eyes.

Ye Yuanwei has always been gentle and considerate to this gentle and virtuous wife, and seeing her aggrieved and sad look, his heart is also heavy. I had the heart to ask, but there was Ye Qinglan standing next to me......

Fortunately, Ye Qinglan had already opened her mouth quickly and said, "I've been bothering for a long time, and it's time to go back." Sister-in-law, I'll come back to see you tomorrow. With that, he retreated lightly, and before closing the door, Ye Yuanwei's distressed expression came into view.

Fortunately, Ye Yuanwei still has some true feelings for Cui Wan. Cui Wan's situation is not too bad after all. As long as it firmly envelops Ye Yuanwei's heart. Her position as the granddaughter-in-law of the head of the long house is as stable as Mount Tai, and no one can shake it.

If Cui Wan is smart enough, she should know what to do next.

The next day, when Cui Wan reappeared in front of people, her expression had regained her usual softness and composure. The red and swollen eyes were probably compressed with a hot towel, and there were only faint marks left.

Ye Qinglan smiled at Cui Wan, and Cui Wan smiled back, and there was no sorrow and faint grievance in her eyes.

Ye Qinglan only felt very happy. After yesterday's efforts, Cui Wan's heart disease has obviously improved greatly. At least, she's much stronger than she used to be. Some things can't be avoided. Then face it bravely and control things not to develop to a worse step.

Therefore, Cui Wan took the initiative to open her mouth for the first time and mentioned the two maids in the room: "Mother-in-law." Your daughter-in-law has something she wants to discuss with you. Chun Tao and Cai Lu's original residence is a little small, and I want to give the two of them two more spacious rooms. ”

Such a trivial matter, Zheng naturally agreed in one bite.

Cui Wan smiled again and said, "What my grandmother said yesterday, I also thought about it after I went back. The matter of taking a concubine needs to be considered in the long run. Although it is a concubine room. But at least you have to be innocent, and it's best to have read and read some words. ”

There is a lot of truth in that. Zheng nodded approvingly: "Of course, there is no room for those unserious foxes in our house." "If you want a peaceful home, you have to choose a daughter of a dignified white family. You don't have to be too beautiful, the most important thing is to be able to have children.

Cui Wan had obviously thought about this matter for a long time, and spoke smoothly and decently: "This matter can't be rushed. Take your time to find the right one. I also want to send a letter back to Cui's house, and ask Sister Qiao'er's grandmother to help me find it, maybe I can find a suitable candidate. ”

Zheng's eyes flashed. Immediately looked at this tame and honest daughter-in-law.

This is a very tactful statement, but the meaning is obvious. Ye Yuanwei wants to take a concubine, but this candidate has to be decided by Cui Fu. To put it bluntly, Cui Fuda can choose an innocent and docile girl from the side branch of his clan to be Ye Yuanwei's concubine. Even if he gave birth to the eldest son, he still has the blood of Cuifu.

Cui Wan still looked respectful: "If my mother-in-law thinks this matter is feasible." The daughter-in-law will send a letter back today. ”

Zheng didn't hesitate for long, then nodded in response.

Cui Wan had already given in. Naturally, she doesn't need to worry too much about the selection of concubines. She wants a white and chubby grandson, and it doesn't matter which woman's belly comes from. What's more, in the case of doing so, it can also minimize the resentment of the Cui Mansion. Since it's a good thing to kill two birds with one stone, why not do it?

Cui Wan quietly breathed a sigh of relief. It was the best she could think of. It can not only deal with the Jiang family and the Zheng family, but also solve the dilemma at this time.

Ye Qinglan looked at it, smiled and blinked. Sister-in-law, you're so good!

Cui Wan smiled slightly. The words that Ye Qinglan said yesterday suddenly came to mind again.

Yes, since things have come to this point, it will be useless for her to be sad and run away. It's better to face the reality and make the best choice for yourself.

I thought that this matter had been resolved peacefully, but I didn't expect that as soon as Jiang Shi heard these words, he immediately spoke out against it: "This is a matter of our house, how can we bother Cui Mansion." ”

Cui Wan felt a sigh in her heart, and suddenly had a bad premonition.

Zheng's eyes flashed, and he smiled faintly: "I wonder if there is a better candidate in my mother-in-law's heart?" ”

Jiang Shi smiled happily: "There is indeed a suitable candidate. A few days ago, my sister-in-law came to the house and brought a girl with her. Her name is Jiang Ying, she is fifteen years old this year, and her appearance is excellent. It's the daughter of my nephew who doesn't make it a gift. I look at it as a good fit. ”

Cui Wan held her breath in her throat, she couldn't go up or down, not to mention how uncomfortable it was.

Zheng's smile did not decrease, but a sneer flashed in his eyes. No wonder the Jiang family is so abnormal these days, so insistent on taking a concubine for Ye Yuanwei. The relationship is to get the girls of the Jiang family into the house. If this Jiang Ying is really allowed to enter the mansion, the eldest son will really be born in the future, and the blood of the Jiang family will be in the blood of the long house.

Thinking deeper, Ye Yuanwei will definitely inherit the title in the future. If Cui Wan never gives birth to a son, she can only pass it on to her eldest son in the future.

Jiang's is wishful thinking......

Zheng's mind was racing, and he saw through Jiang's mind in an instant. In this matter, she and Cui Wan are definitely on the same side. No matter what, the Jiang family must not be allowed to get this Jiang Ying into the mansion as he wishes.

"Mother-in-law is thoughtful and thoughtful." Zheng smiled on his face, but he was soft and prickly: "However, my daughter-in-law feels that this matter is slightly inappropriate." The girl in Jiang's mansion, how can she be a concubine for Yuan Wei, it is too wronged. ”

Jiang's mansion is just an ordinary eunuch's house in the capital, and the concubines in the mansion are concubines for the eldest grandson of Changyuan Bofu, which is actually not a grievance. Zheng said this, but he responded to Jiang's heart. Jiang can't say, "It's okay, my niece and granddaughter are just right to be Yuan Wei's concubine"!

Jiang's smile was really a little stiff, and he was choked and speechless for a while.

Zheng Shi didn't want to mention how happy he was in his eyes, and he still smiled faintly on his face: "I think Cui's mention is good." In the past few years since she married into the house, although she only gave birth to Sister Qiao, she has been filial to her in-laws and served her husband in accordance with the rules and regulations, and she has done everything thoroughly. Now for the sake of the heir, it is also helpless to let Yuan Wei take a concubine. It's better to pass through the Cui Mansion, what does the mother-in-law think? ”

The Jiang family has been planning for a long time, so he is naturally unwilling to give in: "This matter is not urgent, it is better to discuss it slowly." When Yuanwei comes back, ask his opinion again! ”

Zheng naturally responded. I also want to know that Ye Yuanwei will definitely look to his mother and wife.

What Zheng is thinking, Jiang can naturally think of. Her eyes flickered, not knowing what she was thinking.

When he got out of Changhetang, the smile on Zheng's face suddenly disappeared, and his eyes were full of coldness.

Cui Wan didn't have much to say, but Ye Qingning didn't have many scruples, and said in a low voice: "Grandmother deliberately wanted the eldest brother to take a concubine, it turned out to be for this. ”

Seeing the title fall to the head of the long house, the Jiang family was naturally uncomfortable. I finally seized such a good opportunity, and I will definitely not give up.

Zheng did not reprimand Ye Qingning for talking nonsense this time, but ordered: "Go to Luomei Courtyard for lunch at noon today." Cui Wan and Ye Qingning responded together, and they both knew very well that the Zheng family had something to discuss.

Ye Qinglan was embarrassed. It's not a yes, it's not a yes. This is a matter of the long house, what kind of excitement is she, the concubine of the third room?

Zheng didn't bother to worry about Ye Qinglan's mood, and went back to Luomei Courtyard, followed by Cui Wan. Ye Qingning saw Ye Qinglan's hesitation, so he urged: "What's wrong with you, move faster." ”

Ye Qinglan coughed and said in a low voice: "The eldest aunt must have something to discuss with the sister-in-law in the lobby, I'm just afraid that it won't be good next to me......"

Ye Qingning glanced at her, and said angrily: "Who is outside with you." Besides, are you still less involved in the affairs of our long house? It's not bad for this one. It was Ye Qingning's usual tone, a little impatient, and a little snarky.

It seems that Ye Qingning's first love has completely passed, so he has also restored his old speaking habits.

Ye Qinglan smiled dumbly, she simply didn't want to do so much, and chased after Ye Qingning together.

After lunch, a few people went to the side hall to sit for a while.

Cui Wan has excellent self-control, although she is in a chaotic mood, she is quite calm on her face. Zheng Shi thought for a moment, and then said: "This matter is sooner rather than later, so let's go back to Cui's Mansion this afternoon and discuss it with your mother." Let your mother do her best to find a suitable candidate. ”

Otherwise, when the Jiang family really brought that Jiang Ying into the mansion, it would be too late.

Cui Wan also knew that the matter was urgent and important, so she immediately nodded in response.

Ye Qingning suddenly interjected: "Sister-in-law, I'll go back with you!" ”
