Granny Cui was happy to prepare for the marriage of her son and daughter-in-law, this is a parent, and it is a happy event to give her children Zhang Luo's marriage, and she is willing to trouble no matter how trouble.

I was really shocked to know that my son would open his mouth to refuse.

"You're almost nineteen this year, how can you not be in a hurry!" Granny Cui frowned.

Cui Pingsheng said categorically: "My son is still young, I don't want to get married, now I just want to study, I have made an appointment with my classmates to go to the capital next year to participate in the assessment of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and I should not be distracted at this time." ”

"The so-called starting a family, everyone starts a family first and then starts a business, you first marry Duoduo, give birth to a son and a half daughter and then go to the capital, so many have a hope......," Granny Cui persuaded.

Cui Pingsheng thought for a while: "Mother, my son still wants to live for another two years, will this matter be said in the future?" ”

As he said this, he turned his gaze away, refusing to speak again.

Granny Cui has never argued with her son, and she didn't say anything to him, so she went to do her own thing.

Cui Pingsheng hurriedly wrote a letter, and also got up and left home.

He walked to the stream at the door, Yun Duoduo was washing clothes with Xiao Cui, Xiao Cui found him, bumped Yun Duoduo with his elbow, and smiled ambiguously.

Cui Pingsheng is more stable and mature than Yue Chang'an, and Xiaocui is not good at messing around in front of him, so he only smiled embarrassedly.

Yun Duoduo turned his head and saw Cui Pingsheng and greeted him.

Cui Pingsheng walked slowly up to her and sat down on a big rock.

Xiao Cui said "hey".

Cui Pingsheng looked at her in surprise: "What's wrong?" ”

Xiao Cui smiled: "You look so good, here, how can we wash clothes?" ”

Cui Pingsheng smiled: "Children will be poor-mouthed." ”

Yun Duoduo smiled slightly: "Why did you come out and stop studying?" ”

Cui Pingsheng said with a smile: "I don't have to read all the time, I feel tired, so I go out for a walk." ”

Yun Duoduo stopped looking at him and continued to wash clothes with Xiaocui.

Cui Pingsheng looked at them quietly and didn't speak.

When Yun Duoduo and Xiaocui washed their clothes, they found that Cui Pingsheng was in a daze.

Xiaocui was originally a neighbor with Cui Pingsheng since she was a child, and she also played with her when she was a child, but later Cui Pingsheng became more and more stable as she grew older, and after she came back, she became a humble gentleman, so it was not easy to joke.

But the two are still familiar in their bones.

Xiao Cui gave Yun Duoduo a look and motioned for her not to speak.

Then he walked up to Cui Pingsheng lightly and shouted: "Hey! ”

Cui Pingsheng sneered, but did not panic: "How old are you, still messing around like this." ”

Xiao Cui stuck out her tongue and pushed Yun Duoduo: "This husband of yours is not fun at all." After that, your days will be boring to death. ”

Yun Duoduo smiled slightly and did not speak.

After returning home, Yun Duoduo was drying his clothes, and when he turned his head, Cui Pingsheng was still looking at herself in a daze, she looked at him a little strangely: "What's wrong with you, why are you always in a daze today?" ”

Cui Pingsheng smiled: "It's nothing, maybe I'm tired." ”

Yun Duoduo straightened his clothes and looked at him strangely: "You don't look tired at all." ”

Cui Pingsheng was slightly embarrassed, he was probably a person who was not good at lying.

"Do you think I'm bored, too?" Cui Pingsheng said suddenly.

Yun Duoduo was stunned for a moment: "Why do you think so?" ”

Cui Pingsheng said lightly: "I may never joke with you, I won't play with you, and I won't joke." ”

Yun Duoduo: "......"

Cui Pingsheng said bitterly: "They all say that I am handsome and that I have a good temperament, but in fact, after a long time, you will find that I am a particularly boring person." ”

Yun Duoduo looked at him: "Then you...... Will you be angry? ”

Cui Pingsheng came back these days, the family was jubilant, and it did seem that Cui Pingsheng was relatively gentle, and his temperament was a little cold.

Cui Pingsheng thought for a while: "I am generally very reasonable, and with reasonable people, I can not get angry for several years." ”

Yun Duoduo really wants to brush him with "6666".

She smiled slightly: "What's wrong with this, some people like to live a noisy life, and some people like to live a noisy life, thinking that living like that is a little more humane." But I like to be quiet. ”

She smiled and continued: "I think that if there is a person who lives quietly and quietly when the years are quiet, then why not do it, life is too short, why spend time on those unnecessary quarrels. Wouldn't it be more fortunate for quiet people and quiet people to be together and understand each other? ”

Cui Pingsheng looked at her in surprise: "Thank you." ”

"Thank me for what?" Yun Duoduo looked at him strangely.

Cui Pingsheng smiled, leaned against the courtyard wall, and said softly: "No girl has ever been willing to talk to me like this, you are a good girl." ”

Yun Duoduo: "Huh? ”

Cui Pingsheng walked up to her: "Mother wants us to get married as soon as possible." ”

Yun Duoduo was startled, and she instinctively shrank back: "I ......"

Cui Pingsheng smiled: "You don't have to be nervous, I will find a way to refuse." ”

Yun Duoduo was stunned for a moment, she looked at Cui Pingsheng: "I'm just, not ready...... I haven't thought about getting married yet! ”

Cui Pingsheng said lightly: "I know, I haven't thought about it, although I really want to spend my life with you, but I can't get married now." ”

"What?" Yun Duoduo looked at Cui Pingsheng in surprise.

Cui Pingsheng smiled bitterly: "Do you know why I have been traveling to study? ”

Yun Duoduo shook his head, and said in a low voice: "It's not that men are ambitious in all directions, you are a promising gentleman, so you naturally like to travel the world." ”

Cui Pingsheng shook his head slightly: "My grandfather and father, as well as my great-grandfather, all died young. Each of them died at the age of twenty-three, leaving behind orphans and widows, and I was afraid that I would not survive myself, so I did not dare to stay with my mother. ”

Yun Duoduo looked at him in horror: "It's because of this!" ”

Cui Pingsheng smiled: "I have been studying in the clan middle school since I was three years old, apprenticed to my teacher at the age of seven, and began to travel around with my master at the age of twelve, occasionally going home to see my mother, so that she can get used to the days without me." ”

Yun Duoduo looked at him in horror: "...... you do this?"

Cui Pingsheng said lightly: "I am free to play with my playmates outside, and I know about my family, three generations in a row died early, I am afraid I will not live long, people say, twenty-three years old is a hurdle, if I live past, I can live a long life." ”

Yun Duoduo didn't speak, she looked at Cui Pingsheng seriously, she really couldn't imagine that he was such a tolerant and kind person who thought about others.

"I left home early to get my mother used to this life, and even if I suddenly disappeared one day, she wouldn't be too sad." Cui Pingsheng said, "In order not to perpetuate these tragedies, I decided to get married after the age of twenty-three, if I was still alive." ”

Yun Duoduo opened his mouth, but he couldn't speak.

She felt that compared with people like Cui Pingsheng, she was too small and ordinary.

In the past, when she didn't see Cui Pingsheng, she struggled with those women all day long, and the people she saw were either the Zhang family's Li family's short words and wrongs, or they were idle and had nothing to do to spread rumors.

So she doesn't like to talk very much, except for talking to old friends like Yue Chang'an, chatting with childish people like Xiaocui and doing things together, she doesn't want to make friends.

A long-term harsh environment can make a person have a negative perception of the world.

Many times, it's not that there are no gentlemen in the world, but that you haven't met.

"You're such an open-minded gentleman." Yun Duoduo couldn't help but say.

Cui Pingsheng said: "If you don't like me, I won't resent you, because this is my fault, and I am not a man who can bring happiness to women." ”

Yun Duoduo shook his head: "Don't say that, it's not your fault." ”

Cui Pingsheng smiled: "Whether you like me or not, I won't force you." ”

As the two of them spoke, there was a knock on the door outside.

Yun Duoduo turned around and opened the door, it was Xiaocui's mother who came to borrow some pen and ink, and his family wanted to buy some furniture and wanted to make a mark on it.

Cui Pingsheng entered the door and fetched it for her.

Xiaocui's mother took Yun Duoduo's hand and said, "Isn't your mother-in-law at home?" ”

Yun Duoduo replied: "In the morning, I went out to help Aunt Seven's family embroider things, and Aunt Seven's family wants to marry a daughter." ”

Xiaocui's mother glanced around and whispered, "Have you heard?" There was a famine in Minzhou, and the displaced people came to our Jiangzhou City. ”

Yun Duoduo blinked: "This ......"

To be honest, she didn't have any idea of famine and didn't know what it meant!

"Our generation in Jiangzhou, this year's harvest is not good, and Taishou will definitely have to be taxed again." Xiaocui's mother said, "I don't know if the farmland rented out this year can get back the grain." ”

Cui Pingsheng walked out, gave the pen and ink to Xiaocui's mother, and after the person left, he asked Yun Duoduo: "What did he tell you?" ”

Yun Duoduo had already heard it, so he told Cui Pingsheng what Xiaocui's mother said: "It is said that the homeless people from Minzhou came over, and I am afraid that Lord Taishou will be taxed." ”

Cui Pingsheng was stunned for a moment, and reacted: "I haven't asked about the fields in our family at all, and they are all taken care of by my mother, and I don't know what the harvest is, and how Lord Taishou will deal with these homeless people." ”

Yun Duoduo said: "I heard my mother say that now there are hundreds of acres of land in the family, all of which have been planted by the people on the Zhuangzi, and the rent collected by our family for a year is the same as that of other families. The government is just collecting taxes and donations. ”

Cui Pingsheng nodded: "Yes, it's just ...... I don't know if those refugees can be resettled, so that they can be saved by collecting taxes and donations, but they can't be saved for a lifetime. ”

"What else do you have to do to hear you say that?" Yue Chang'an jumped in, "I just came back from the martial arts hall over there, and in the past few days, there have been displaced people coming into the city to beg for food, and I am too panicked." ”

Cui Pingsheng sneered: "Where can I do anything, if I can rectify the displaced people, this prime minister can also do it." ”
