Chapter 295: Complaint
And Mrs. Cui, who was using a spoonful of bird's nest porridge, put down the porcelain bowl, rinsed her mouth, and then took the handkerchief graciously handed over by the woman in the peach-pink dress and wiped the corners of her mouth.
Then he reprimanded: "Shut up, don't say this in the future." ”
"You don't have much to do with the affairs of the fourth room."
The woman in the peach-pink dress stuck out her tongue and said coquettishly: "Mother, my daughter-in-law knows." ”
Judging from her dress and behavior, this woman is not very old, but she is only twenty-eight years old, although the two are mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, they are actually closer.
It is the maiden niece of Mrs. Cui, who married into Shangshu Mansion.
Although she is the old lady of Shangshu Mansion, she is not very old, she is on par with the He family, and she is almost twenty years younger than Cui Shangshu.
has a son and a daughter, the eldest son is older than Cui Yuanheng, and he married last year and then married.
The old husband and young wife, and she has a steproom, and she is too lazy to take care of the children in front of her, not only does she not care, but she also reprimands her daughter-in-law and does not allow it.
Xiao Yuan is young and still lively, but he also knows the importance of it, so he naturally doesn't dare to stir up the affairs of the four rooms, but it doesn't delay her at all.
For the stepwife, Cui Shangshu is still relatively relieved, and there are no moths for so many years.
The matter of the fourth child is afraid that it is the only bad thing for Cui Mansion for so many years.
At this moment, Cui Shangshu was still playing chess with his eldest son, and after hearing the next person's return, he angrily threw the chess pieces again.
"You see, this is really not a family, not a family."
"A little peasant girl, who gave her the confidence?"
Cui Jiahong looked at the already chaotic chessboard, and glanced at his father helplessly, are you sure it's because of this? And not because you're going to lose?
However, he didn't expose his father, but put away the chess pieces one by one and said, "Naturally, she is the one who is compatible." ”
Cui Shangshu blew his beard angrily, "It's just a small lifter, I really don't know how thick the sky is." ”
And Cui Jiahong said with a smile: "It's more than that. ”
Cui Shangshu picked up the tea bowl and glanced at him when he heard the words, "How can you say this?" ”
Cui Jiahong still said unhurriedly: "Mr. Wang Chongxian, do you remember?" ”
Cui Shangshu said in surprise: "The young master of the prince, Wang Daru? ”
Cui Jiahong nodded, still smiling: "The eldest son of the fourth brother is a closed disciple of Wang Daru. ”
Cui Shangshu was stunned at this moment, "Is there anything else going on?" ”
Who doesn't know Wang Daru, who doesn't know?
That's a contemporary Confucianism who is full of peach and plums all over the world, when he was the prince and the prince, and then the prince had an accident, many people were purged, and he naturally did not escape, but for the sake of the first emperor, he did not kill his head, and directly copied his home.
But he was an honest official, his family lived a very poor life except for books, his son died on the way to exile, his wife also died, but his daughter who married into the mansion of the Marquis of Wu'an is still alive.
It is not unmistakable.
Thinking of this, Cui Shangshu's expression became gloomy.
After a long while, he looked at his eldest son, "So, the fourth son still has two sons?" ”
Cui Jiahong nodded, cleaned up the chessboard and said, "The last time the county lord of Jia'an was imprisoned in the Zongren Mansion, it should be his handiwork. ”
"But you know, the one in the Yushitai is still a brother with him."
Cui Shangshu stroked his beard when he heard this, and then glanced at his eldest son, "Hmph, you sent someone to pick up the fourth family, but you are not idle." ”
Cui Jiahong said with a smile: "Dad, this is not a way, the fourth brother is my own brother, after so many years, what hatred and grudge can't be eliminated?" ”
Cui Shangshu directly put the tea bowl down, "Hmph, don't mention that rebel to me." ”
"But he gave me a good grandson."
"When is that kid coming?"
He couldn't wait to see him.
And Cui Jiahong looked at the sky and said with a smile: "It should be almost there." ”
Sure enough, after Cui Yuanheng received the news, he hurried back.
Today, he was invited to go to Fahua Temple with other classmates to discuss articles, and he was about to end, and this was the last time the students got together.
Therefore, it was too late to receive the news, and when I arrived at home, I found that Ye Xiaolou had already set off, and now the family was in Shangshu Mansion, and Cui Yuanheng had to go even if he didn't want to go.
And what surprised her even more was that he received the news after everything had settled for such an important matter as his mother and younger siblings entering Beijing.
It can be seen that the Cui family is careful in doing things.
From Nankang City to the capital, it takes two or three days to take a carriage non-stop.
I'm afraid that my mother must have been coaxed here.
Also, as long as there is news of his father, his mother will definitely let him do anything.
Cui Yuanheng sighed, and could only board the door of Shangshu Mansion at this time.
The porter had already been instructed, so naturally he didn't dare to slack off and lead the way.
And when Cui Yuanheng entered the door, Ye Xiaolou naturally didn't know, at this moment she took her younger siblings to salute her father-in-law, and when they met for the first time, they naturally had to give a big salute.
Although Ye Xiaolou doesn't like to bow down, however, the ancient rules are like this, in one, this is Cui Yuanheng's father.
As the saying goes, kneeling to the sky and kneeling to your parents and benefactors is not so repulsive.
And Cui Siye also looked at this daughter-in-law carefully.
The long one is the beauty of the sinking fish and the wild goose, the beauty of the closed moon and the shy flowers, but I didn't expect that this character is actually a bold one, and the people of Shangshu Mansion dare to rob it, it seems that his son is very fond of her.
Otherwise, how can you have such a temperament?
But Cui Siye didn't dislike it, but liked it quite a bit.
So he nodded with a smile and said, "You are Brother Heng's daughter-in-law?" ”
"Well, yes, not bad---"
Then he touched his body, and then took a jade pendant from his body and handed it over: "This is for you." ”
Seeing this, Hao's face changed instantly, raised his eyes to look at him, and finally bit his lip and remained silent.
And Ye Xiaolou took it with both hands respectfully, this jade pendant style is not new, it should be an old object.
And the quality of jade is not the best, but it has been worn on Cui Siye's body, I am afraid that it has commemorative significance.
Ye Xiaolou understood in his heart, but thanked him quietly, "Thank you for your father's reward." ”
"My daughter-in-law will take good care of it."
Seeing that she was so smart, Cui Siye showed a satisfied look on his face, "Okay, get up." ”
Ye Xiaolou got up and stood on one side, but among the children of the Cui family, it was Cui Yulan who stepped forward first, only to see the little girl's eyes red, and her eyes were tearful and she knelt down to Cui Siye's side, hugged his thighs and cried: "Daddy---"
"Woo, I thought you were dead, my mother and I have been looking for you for a long, long time, Lan'er thought that I couldn't see you in this life, woo---"
"Dad, where have you been all these years, why don't you go home?"
"My mother misses you, I wash my face with tears every day, your things are strictly watched by my mother, I just broke a porcelain bowl, and I was beaten by my mother, saying that it was what you are used to."
"Dad, you have to call the shots for Lan'er, Lan'er didn't mean it."
"Woo, Dad, I finally know your news, we didn't get off the carriage for three days and two nights and rushed to the capital, but they didn't let us see you, Woo---, Dad, I don't want to be here, I want to go home, Dad, I want to go home."
