Chapter Eighty-Six: The Chronicles

Because of what he thought in his heart, Cao Xiu was very good at chatting with Cui Changyong, and in the face of his strange questions one after another, Cui Changyong could answer them as soon as he could, and if he couldn't answer them, he didn't talk nonsense, and just said that he didn't know.

There was not the slightest impatience on his face, Cao Xiu felt that this son was a human being, not as slippery and cunning as his brother.

As far as everyone chatted so well, Cui Changjian by the window had already won a masterpiece, he looked up and smiled, freely lifted the corners of his robe, turned around and walked to the bookcase.

A qiē is ready-made, and he writes with his pen: 'The flowers have passed through the rain, and the ground is full of redness. The wild geese returned to the south and were silent, and the old nest was nowhere to be found. Who toils in the fields? Who sings and dances in the Jade Tower? If the autumn wind blows, the snow will fill the world. ’

When Cui Changjian was writing the pen, everyone sitting gathered in front of him, wanting to witness the birth of another masterpiece.

When Cui Changjian finished writing this last stroke, Cao Yun was the first to clap his hands and praise: "Okay!" Good one, who toiled in the fields? Who sings and dances in the Jade Tower? That's a good question! Not to mention, this poem that doesn't cost money is really much more meaningful than those gorgeous rhetoric that is bought with money! ”

Cui Changjian shook his head with a wry smile, and said secretly: "Is this helping his brother ridicule me?" Or are you really praising me? Why does it sound so awkward? ”

Zheng Zeming then sighed: "Brother Yunfei's words are actually very close to the truth, just imagine, those who can spend 100 gold to buy poetry, can they have the suffering of the people's livelihood in their hearts?" Naturally, you have to spend money to buy a happy one! ”

"But when friends get together and brothers are sitting, it is natural to express their true temperament, and Changjian Gongzi is really worthy of his name! The great talent in the world is also, the foolish brother sighs to himself! ”

Cui Changjian waved his hand casually with his head sideways, and said with a smile: "Brother Zeming, it was actually some time ago, I went to Dachengtian Temple with my friends, and I saw farmers working hard in the fields on the way, but they still wore cloth clothes and ate corn. ”

"And those of us, born in the home of Zhong Ding hairpin, are clothed and fed all day long, but we are still sad in spring and autumn, and this is not good, and it is not fair, there are those who are competitive and competitive, and there are those who live in a drowsy, and it is even more general to go with the flow."

"Comparing the two compartments, I can't help but feel in my heart, and today I can be regarded as writing what I think, but this poem should not be passed on to the outside, and my brother really doesn't want to be talked about anymore."

Cao Xiu watched from the side, and there was no refutation of the rare exit, but he nodded as if he was nothing, and looked at Cui Changjian's eyes, which could be regarded as not so picky and disgusting.

With Cui Changjian's words, the next atmosphere is not warm, these sons seated, the oldest is only in his early twenties, and all of them are enthusiastic.

The discussion around this topic was even more enthusiastic and exciting, and when it was over, they all felt that they were still unsatisfied, and they agreed to meet again in the academy tomorrow.

On this day, the hospitality of Cui's Mansion was really lively, and Mrs. Cui's response and reception were also very thorough.

After all, it has been ten years since he became a family, and he has hosted many banquets of all sizes, and the head of the Cui family, is not just shouting on her lips, without a few brushes, can she hold it? .

Although Ming Anhou did not speak to Master Cui or Second Master Cui in private, his visit to the family today has already explained a thing.

The second master Cui sent off the eldest brother-in-law and the third brother-in-law with mixed feelings, returned to his study and sat down, while holding up the hot tea and tasting tea, he couldn't help but think of the three wives before and after.

His first wife, who was the daughter of his father's friend, was a baby pro-engaged parent, and the two families had a lot of contacts, so they were familiar with each other, and their married life was also Qin Se and Ming, and there was no quarrel or discord.

And the second wife, who is much younger than herself, and is the daughter of the Hou Mansion, that kind of nobility, which flows out of her bones, Cao's delicate like a jade doll, and she is gentle and thoughtful, which makes him feel distressed from the bottom of his heart.

The current second lady Cui was given by the holy decree, and it came suddenly, it stands to reason that she and the Zhou family have lived the longest, but if you really want to ask how you feel, Cui Yongzhong only flashed two words in his mind: 'dignified'.

Cui Yongzhong admitted that he didn't care about Cui Wanqing, and even ignored it a little, which was actually a feeling of being a little afraid to look at it and deliberately avoiding it.

At the beginning, he and Cao were in love, but when he was looking forward to a beautiful new life, he didn't expect it, but he was looking forward to Cao's death, and he couldn't accept taking his wife's young and beautiful life in exchange for a wrinkled little girl.

Cui Yongzhong also tried hard to be kind to Cao's daughter, but every time he saw Cui Wanqing's eyebrows, he would think of his deceased wife's face.

This feeling is very painful, and Cui Yongzhong is not strong, he couldn't get through, but chose to escape, and this escape has passed all these years.

In the winter of last year, his two daughters fell into the lake at the same time, which made him vigilant, broke the previous practice of not asking about the affairs of the house, and privately made people investigate.

I don't know if I don't check this, but after I find it out, he hates himself a little, it turns out that Cui Wanqing is living such an unbearable life, and his wife, who looks dignified and virtuous, actually transferred her hatred for the Cao family to a child.

Cui Changzhong thought about making up for improving Cui Wanqing's life at that time, but when he wanted to make a move, he suddenly found that the entire back house of Xifu had been controlled by the Zhou family.

I can take advantage of my momentary majesty and open my mouth to make my daughter's life change dramatically, but the question is, I angered this woman who I can't see through, how long can this child be safe?

Cui Changzhong has been in the officialdom for so many years, and although his official position is not very high, he has not fallen behind in the way of knowledge.

The battle in this backyard is even more ruthless than that of the court, look at Cui Wanyun, who she cares for, how is she treated by the Zhou family?

In the matter of falling into the lake, Cui Wanqing was dragged down a little, and Cui Wanyun was the protagonist!

He didn't dare to risk his daughter's life anymore, but fortunately, the two daughters who escaped death had a new understanding, changed their original ways, and were fighting for their future.

The eldest brother-in-law and the third brother-in-law originally loved their deceased wife to the bone, but now it is logical that they have transferred this favor to Cui Wanqing, so solemnly to support their nephew and daughter.

Conform to the trend, and it is appropriate for me to see the nine girls at this time.

Thinking of this, he instructed Cui Shandao: "Let people go to the East Courtyard, invite Miss Nine over, and say that I have something to tell her." ”

Seeing that Chang Sui went out to instruct the maid to run an errand, he stood up, walked to his usual living room, and entered the inverted room where valuables were placed, and he took out a golden key from his personal purse, and opened a large mahogany box.

There were calligraphy and painting scrolls in it, and he carefully selected them, and finally selected two and took them out, which he intended to give to his daughter as a gift.

Back in the west wing of the study, Cui Yongzhong stretched out his hand to open one of them, let Cui Shan hang it on the wall, and took a few steps back, looking at the picture scroll with an unpredictable look.

I saw that the picture scroll he had just opened was a picture of a beauty, in which was a young woman, dressed in homely clothes, looking at the water by the railing, with a smile on her face, and only a white jade and phoenix hairpin on her sideburns, which looked gentle and amiable, and her eyebrows and eyes were very similar to Cui Wanqing.

Cui Yongzhong sighed heavily, this painting was still made by him when he was newly married, and now the person in the painting is still the same as before, but in reality, Si people died early and never saw a trace again.

After Cao's death, he put all the objects related to Cao's around him into a box, and the painting was never opened again.

In the bones of Cui Er, he was born with a little less strength that a man should have, especially when he suffered a heavy emotional setback, he often chose to shrink into his thick shell, rather than choose to face it bravely.

"I pride myself on being a lover, but in fact, I'm afraid it's a thin lover, Yun Sleeve, you probably blame me in your heart now, right?"

"Although it was said that our mothers were interested in each other, but I also paid a lot of attention to you, if I hadn't deliberately shown myself in front of you, with the love of Ming Anhou and Cao Sanye, where would I let you marry as a stepmother?"

"But now look at what kind of result you got from the decision you made at the beginning?"

"You yourself died young, and our children have suffered so much because of my deliberate neglect."

"You must be blaming me for not taking good care of our children, blaming me for breaking my promise and marrying a young lady from another family, right?" Cui Yongzhong looked at Cao Yunxiu's portrait, smiled bitterly, and shook his head gently.

Suddenly, he looked at the portrait and was stunned, as if he remembered something, and returned to the back room just now, and when he returned to the west room, there was a small big red cloud brocade box in his hand.

He was in the study by himself, tossing back and forth for a long time, and Cui Wanqing on the other side of the east courtyard arrived at the door of Cui Er's study in a small sedan chair.

In her previous life, she often ran here, either to find her father to be considerate, or to complain, accusing her mother of treating her harshly, and also accusing the fourth sister of looking down on others, and even saying that the twelfth sister relied on her mother's support and regarded herself as an inappropriate sister.

Looking back now, it's really ridiculous enough, at that time, I was still innocent, and I only knew Miss Jiao who sought her father's attention.

I haven't suffered any big losses, nor have I suffered any big measures, in fact, after I entered the Liangwang Mansion, I knew that my previous life was simply a fairy life.

Compared with that evil star, Second Mrs. Cui is simply gentle and unspeakable, isn't she just shaking her face and moving her hands and feet behind her back?

Compared with other people's real knives and guns, cold and ferocious style, it is like a joke.

It's a pity, people always know to cherish R1152 after they lose
