The Cheng family is going to have a happy event, but Cheng Qing is going to Cui's house.

The fifth master didn't say that he wouldn't let Cheng Qing go, thinking about it, when Cheng Qing was under house arrest in Yangliu Lane, Cui Yan was also running for Cheng Qing.

If it weren't for Cui Yan's insistence on letting Cheng Qing participate in the county test in Chengping's seven years, there would be no later Cheng Sanyuan and Cheng Case Head, and probably there would not be the current Cheng Jieyuan.

Cheng Qing's people will not change, and his knowledge will not change, what will change is luck, not the same examiner, and the probability of Cheng Qing being the first to solve the case is not great.

It doesn't mean that if you have talent, you will definitely be able to win the first place in the scientific examination.

If you want to talk about learning, is Dong Jinqiu not as good as Cheng Qing?

So the fifth master not only remembered Cui Yan, but also had a very good impression of Cui Yan, Cheng Qing said that Cui Yan might be in trouble there, and the fifth master agreed to borrow someone from her.

Just one point, no matter what scene you encounter, you can't be too excited.

"You have to protect yourself before you can help others."

Cheng Qing nodded vigorously.

Of course, there are so many people who need her to protect, how can Cheng Qing not love herself?

Not for others but also for himself, he came to Dawei for some reason, and Cheng Qing cherished this life very much.

"Uncle, don't worry, I'm just to confirm my friend's safety, and I will do what I can for the Cui family!"

Cheng Qing had such an awareness, and the fifth master didn't say anything anymore.

Unless Cheng Qing wants to die himself, a Xie Yuan with more than 20 helpers will not have an accident wherever he goes. The Cui family is a wealthy businessman, not a Longtan tiger's den, so they dare not do anything to Xie Yuan.

Cheng Qing borrowed people and went south by boat with Zhou Heng.

Cui's house is only two days away from Nanyi by water, but it is already another provincial boundary, so Cui Yan has to return to his hometown every time to take the exam.

Zhou Heng was worried all the way, what he was thinking about now was not his marriage, but the changes in the Cui family.

"It's useless to think about it, we will only know what the situation of the Cui family is when we see it with our own eyes."

The boat did not stop for two days, and because it was a smooth water, there were no twists and turns on the road.

Cheng Qing didn't go directly to the Cui family, and first asked the locals for news when he arrived at the place.

"The Cui family? The Cui family is full of lights, and they are doing a happy event! ”

I asked several people in a row to say this.

The Cui family is doing a happy event, as if they are going to marry their daughter.

As for which daughter to marry and whose family to marry, the locals can't say clearly, the Cui family has a large population, how can outsiders explain the matter of the Cui family's house.

But when it comes to the young masters of the Cui family, passers-by have something to say.

"The fourth young master of his family is really competitive, and he was admitted to the lifting of people this year!"

Others praise Cui Yan, but Cheng Qing has only one feeling: Master Cui is really good.

Cui Yan ranked fourth, and there were three cousins above, and several cousins below.

Mrs. Cui only gave birth to Cui Yan and Cui Wuniang, who was going to marry Zhou Heng, and the other children of the Cui family were all concubines, and Master Cui really had a lot of concubines...... Isn't this Master Cui a hole in his brain? It's not for nothing that a concubine is born in front of a concubine, but only after giving birth to three concubines in a row can there be a concubine, which person with rules would do this!

Of course, the royal family often does this, but the royal family is the most unruly in the world, and people really have the throne to inherit, regardless of the concubine, just give birth to a son first.

The Cui family has no throne to inherit, and Master Cui has a bit of the ability to turn stone into gold, but the belt of his trousers is looser.

Cheng Qing knows too well the nouveau riche mentality of Master Cui!

The poor are rich, and those who have not enjoyed it should enjoy it quickly, such a mentality is not limited to Master Cui, even before Cheng Qing crossed over, he also saw a lot of his uncles and uncles.

Cheng Qing inquired about everything she could, she and Zhou Heng both spoke official language, and there were twenty or thirty sturdy family members behind her, who were not locals at first glance, and when they got off the boat, they inquired about the local wealthy businessman Cui's family.

Before Cheng Qing and Zhou Heng arrived at Cui's house, someone took the initiative to greet the two.

A young man in brocade in his twenties, claiming to be Cui Peng, the eldest man of the Cui family.

"I heard the magpie calling early in the morning, and sure enough, a distinguished guest came to the door, Cheng Jieyuan, Aunt Zhou, please go with my house!"

It's all called Aunt Zhou.

Cheng Qing smiled immediately: "Young Master Cui, why don't you see Cui Yan?" Cui Juren is so good at posing now, and his classmates and friends come to the door, and they don't come to pick it up? ”

Zhou Heng and Cheng Qing have a position, hoping to see Cui Yan immediately.

Cui Peng was questioned by the two of them like this, but he still retained his demeanor, he sighed: "The fourth brother can't leave now, I can't hide it, my father is bedridden when he suddenly fell ill, and the fourth brother has been serving beside the sickbed, I hope the two can understand, the Cui family has been in business for many years, has made many friends, and has made many enemies, and this news is still hidden from outsiders." ”

Master Cui is sick, and he is so serious that he can't get out of bed!

Cheng Qing and Zhou Heng glanced at each other, and Cheng Qing nodded first:

"We were rude just now, I didn't know that Uncle Cui was sick. Cui Yan wrote a letter to Brother Zhou to the Cui family to get married, but because of Uncle Cui's illness? Alas, why should Cui Yan and Brother Zhou see each other like this, if the Cui family is inconvenient, the marriage can be postponed, and it is important to treat Uncle Cui at the moment. ”

Zhou Heng's face was even more excited and flushed, "My father-in-law is seriously ill, how can Zhou get married with peace of mind!" ”

Cui Peng is called Aunt Zhou, and Zhou Heng also thinks he is the aunt of the Cui family.

Something has happened to the Cui family now, an uncle who lifts people, and he has to take care of it.

Cheng Qing also looked sad, and her words were like brothers and sisters with Cui Yan, rounding it up, Master Cui was also half her father.

The son-in-law is half a son, and Cui Peng admits it.

A Xie Yuan wants to rush to the Cui family as a half-son, and Cui Peng doesn't know whether to be angry or laugh.

Cui Yan is really capable!

went to Nanyi Academy to study, and in just over three years, he was promoted to the top of the competition, and he also made friends like Cheng Qing.

It's useless to say more, and Cui Peng can't refuse, so he can only lead Cheng Qing and Zhou Heng home with the two 'half sons of the Cui family'. Why did he insist on holding a happy event when Master Cui was sick, Cui Peng also had his own explanation:

"First, it is to confuse those competitors and prevent them from knowing that my father is critically ill, and secondly, when my father's illness is sudden, I will use happy events to rush it, which may also help my father's illness."

These two reasons are actually quite reasonable.

Cheng Qing listened to Cui Peng's words and was reasonable, not vulgar, and knew that the eldest young master of the Cui family had also read.

The Cui family is rich, and it is strange that the young masters of the Cui family do not read and write.

However, the Cui family's business needs to be taken care of, and Master Cui obviously can't let all his sons take the road of scientific examination. For example, Cui Yan, because he occupies the status of his son-in-law, he can go to the academy, take the examination for talent, and become an official in the future.

Other sons, such as Cui Peng, the eldest young master, can only continue the path of Master Cui, manage the Cui family's business, and become a businessman.

The gap between the social status of being an official and doing business is too big, and if there is a contradiction between the Cui family, it may be due to such unfairness!

Cheng Qing hid his speculation, and everything had to wait until he saw Cui Yan.

Even if this Cui Peng wants to take advantage of Master Cui's illness to make trouble, what does he rely on to hold Cui Yan hostage?

Cui Yan is a person.

If the Cui family is in civil strife, Cui Yan raises his arms and shouts, at least more than half of the people will choose Cui Yan instead of Master Cui's other sons...... This is the power and confidence given to Cui Yan by the Great Wei, or the imperial examination system that has appeared since the Sui Dynasty.
