Chapter 225: Convincing Mengxue
"Little sister, you can go with me, Liulang is not lightly ill now, but there is something urgent for him to deal with on the big island, so he can only take the sick on the road, this road is thousands of miles, if there is a case, then what can I do?" Cui Yu persuaded anxiously. This is the small living room outside Mrs. Cheng's bedroom, and there are not only the brothers and sisters Cui Yu and Cui Mengxue in the living room, but also Mrs. Cheng and Cheng Huailiang.
"Big brother, you lied to me again!" Cui Mengxue turned her face angrily, although people couldn't see the expression on her face, but her tone was still angry. Li Su was still alive and well in the bicycle race a year ago, and some time ago there was a sensational marine life exhibition, and now Cui Yu suddenly said that Li Su was sick, and Cui Mengxue naturally didn't believe it.
"Cousin, my cousin really didn't lie to you this time, Rokuro is really sick, my cousin and I went to see him yesterday, and it turned out that he was so sick that he couldn't even get out of bed." Cheng Huailiang didn't believe it when he saw Mengxue, and patted his chest at the moment and reassured. It's just that when he was talking, he glanced at Cui Yu next to him weakly, and then secretly glanced at Mrs. Cheng who was sitting in the right seat.
Yesterday, Cheng Huailiang and Cui Yu went to find Li Su on the order of Mrs. Cheng, and then asked him to pretend to be sick, in order to persuade Cui Mengxue to let her also go with Li Su.
Although the atmosphere of Datang is relatively open, for a woman like Cui Mengxue, the etiquette to be adhered to is still very strict, for example, although she and Li Su are engaged, as long as they are not really married, the two cannot have too much contact. Mrs. Cheng is also from the Qinghe Cui family, so she is naturally very clear about these men and women. So if it weren't for the last resort, Mrs. Cheng would not have made the decision to let Mengxue go with Li Su.
The reason why Mrs. Cheng has such a plan is actually one master and two reasons, the first reason is simple to say, that is, Mrs. Cheng wants to take advantage of this trip to let Mengxue and Li Su have more contact, so that it will be more natural to get married in the future. It won't make the two of them too embarrassed when they get along, but this can only be regarded as a secondary reason.
Last time, the Lu family was forced to withdraw from the marriage by Li Su, in fact, strictly speaking. Mengxue is also a victim, but as a woman with a sense of responsibility, Mengxue blames herself very much. It's a sullen look all day. At first, Mrs. Cheng thought that Mengxue would recover in a few days, but she didn't expect that after a month, Mengxue's mental state became worse and worse, and even the whole person lost a lot of weight, and her face was even more haggard.
This time, Mrs. Cheng finally found a problem, and hurriedly called Mengxue's maid Worm to ask, but as soon as Worm heard Mrs. Cheng's question, she immediately cried 'Wow~', and then intermittently told her Miss Worm's situation during this time. It turns out that since the divorce. Mengxue began to think about not wanting to eat, and even had insomnia all night long, and finally developed into medical books, sometimes it was a day and a night, and even ate very little. The bugs were terrified. I wanted to report to Mrs. Cheng, but Meng Xue didn't let her, and threatened her, if she dared to report it privately, then she would practice acupuncture on the insects, which scared the always timid insects a lot. That's why it's been hidden until now.
After listening to the report of the insects, Mrs. Cheng was also frightened, not only chatted with Meng Xue in person, but also forced her to resume normal eating and sleeping, but she didn't expect it to have no effect, Meng Xue's face was still like a day, and in the end, in desperation, Mrs. Cheng thought of letting Meng Xue also go to beg, mainly to let her distract herself, and at the same time, she also wanted her to have more contact with Li Su, so as not to let her think nonsense all day long, after all, if it goes on like this, it is estimated that Meng Xue may die if she can't wait for the day of marriage.
It's just that as a traditional woman, Mengxue didn't approve of her aunt's decision, no matter what Mrs. Cheng said, it was useless, and even Cui Yu and Cheng Huailiang helped persuade her, but they didn't make her change her mind. In the end, it was Mrs. Cheng who was cunning and cunning, and thought of such a way to make Li Su pretend to be sick, and then let Mengxue go with the boat as a doctor, but Cui Mengxue didn't believe it at all.
"Big brother, cousin, don't say it again, anyway, I won't follow King Qi to beg!" I saw Meng Xue turn around and say to Cui Yu and Cheng Huailiang with a serious face. Compared with when Li Su saw Mengxue for the first time, the current Cui Mengxue has lost a few laps of weight, her face is as pale as paper, and even her eyes have lost their former brilliance, looking extremely haggard.
"Little sister, why are you so desperate, I will also beg when the time comes, even if you follow my eldest brother, okay?" Cui Yu looked at the little sister's current appearance, as if her heart had been pricked with a needle, and she even spoke with a pleading tone.
Regarding the eldest brother's words, Meng Xue showed a sad smile and asked, "Big brother, why do you deceive yourself? ”
Just when Cui Yu and Cheng Huailiang had no choice but to take Mengxue, Mrs. Cheng on the main seat finally spoke, only to see her say slowly: "Mengxue, if you really don't want to beg with King Qi, then my aunt won't force you." ”
Hearing her aunt say this, Cui Mengxue's face finally breathed a sigh of relief, but she obviously underestimated her aunt too much, only to see Mrs. Cheng then said: "But you have to prepare, you will marry Liulang in the next two days!" ”
"Aunt~" As soon as Mrs. Cheng's words fell, Cui Yu and Cui Mengxue exclaimed almost at the same time. However, Cui Yu reacted immediately, and immediately stood aside with a smile and stopped talking, but Cui Mengxue's face became even more anxious, only to see her say urgently: "Auntie, didn't we say at the beginning, wait until I'm ready to marry again, but it's only been a few months now, and I don't have the slightest preparation at all, Auntie, aren't you too ruthless to do this?" ”
"Mengxue, don't blame your aunt for being ruthless, your aunt is also for your good, you don't want to beg, your aunt doesn't force you, but I don't want you to be so haggard day by day, now I only think of two ways, one is to let you accompany Liulang out for a walk, and the other is to marry you as soon as possible, so that you can cut off all the messy things in your heart, so as not to think nonsense!" Mrs. Cheng said very resolutely.
"My aunt is right, little sister, you can choose for yourself, either go with me to beg, or marry into the Qi Palace?" Cui Yu also said resolutely, he didn't want to watch his little sister torture himself no matter what.
Looking at the resolute looks on her aunt and eldest brother's faces, Mengxue knew that she had to make a choice from two paths today, thinking of marrying Li Su now, she immediately instinctively resisted, but if she didn't marry, she could only follow the other party to beg, but although she was engaged to Li Su, if she followed the other party to such a far place, would she be laughed at by others?
Seeing the change in the expression on her niece's face, Mrs. Cheng suddenly sighed, waved her hand to let Cui Yu and Cheng Huailiang step back, and then said earnestly: "Mengxue, do you remember the last time you cried alone in the garden, what I said to you?" ”
Meng Xue was stunned after hearing this, she thought that her aunt would reprimand her eldest brother and cousin harshly when she let her eldest brother and cousin go out, but she didn't expect the other party to suddenly ask about the events of that day, but that time Mrs. Cheng said a lot to her, so Meng Xue really didn't know which sentence the other party was asking?
Mrs. Cheng didn't expect Meng Xue to answer, so she continued: "That day I said that you were a stupid girl, not only taking your father's death on yourself, but also carrying a heavy burden on the plague that occurred when you were born, in fact, these have nothing to do with you at all, it's just that you are too heavy-minded, too concerned about other people's opinions, and even took the initiative to take the responsibility for these things on yourself." ”
When Mrs. Cheng said this, she suddenly sighed and said: "This divorce is even more so, in fact, there are some hidden secrets that you don't know, whether it is the Lu family or Li Su, there are already some grievances between them, and your incident just happened to detonate the conflict between them, so you are the real victim, so Mengxue, you don't have to blame yourself for this at all, and even the Lu family has fallen to the point where it is now, and they deserve it!" ”
Mrs. Cheng didn't know about Lu's assassination of Li Su at first, so she was a little unhappy with Lu at first, but when she learned the cause and effect of the whole incident from Cui Yu, the grievance in her heart had already disappeared.
However, after Cui Mengxue heard this, she lowered her head and said faintly: "Auntie, I'm not interested in the grievances between them, but for some reason, there is always a sense of guilt in my heart, and I am even scared sometimes...... Scared ......"
When she said this, Meng Xue suddenly spit out, but Mrs. Cheng continued: "Are you afraid of how you should get along with Li Su when you meet him?" ”
Mengxue was told by her aunt's words, and she couldn't help but feel a little blushing on her face, but she still nodded gently. And Mrs. Cheng showed a kind smile and said: "Silly girl, what's the use of being afraid, although the daughter of our Cui family is gentle, she also has the courage to face difficulties, you have to learn from my aunt and me, I followed your uncle through life and death several times, and even fell into a desperate situation several times, if I didn't have some courage, I'm afraid I would have died in that troubled world." ”
When Mrs. Cheng said this, she didn't wait for Mengxue to speak, only to see her rush to say again: "This matter is so decided, everything is up to my aunt, you and Yu'er go to beg together, and get along with Li Su's kid for a while." ”
Meng Xue saw that her aunt was resolute, and she was excited by Mrs. Cheng's words, she felt as if she was really a little cowardly, so she was also a little moved in her heart, so after listening to her aunt's words, she didn't open her mouth to object, but just lowered her head and didn't speak, which was considered to be a tacit acquiescence to Mrs. Cheng's words.
Just when Mrs. Cheng persuaded Mengxue, Li Su also received a great piece of good news, and even after receiving the good news, he didn't even change his clothes, he galloped across Suzaku Street in a loose regular clothes, and rushed to Mingde Gate in one go! ……)
