Chapter 556: No Worries (Page 1/1)

"Alright, let's be safe!" Old Madam Cui frowned, the wrinkles on her forehead were full of majesty, and her voice was not high, but it had already quieted the hall.

Her gaze swept over Mrs. Cui and Gu Mingzhu who did not move, the second lady who was full of smugness and the Xie family who was uncomfortable on the side, Zheng Yuan who looked calm, and the third lady who was red and embarrassed, and the Wang family who bit her lip and was annoyed, these pairs of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law can see the thoughts of people with a clear eye, and Mrs. Cui is even brighter.

Her eyes became more and more gloomy, but her face was even more indifferent, and she said, "I know that you are all for the clan, so you don't have to fight anymore." ”

"Da Lang and San Lang are running around doing some chores for the benefit of the clan, I know in my heart." Old Madam Cui said slowly, but before the second lady could rejoice, she said: "Erlang has been proficient in poetry and books since he was a child, and everyone praised him for his outstanding literary talent, and I think he will be more refined in the future." ”

She looked at the people with complicated expressions, and said in a deep voice: "The clan has decided to choose another Zongzi, all the Lang Jun in our house are good, and I will not be biased, if anyone can solve the matter in front of them, it will prove that they are indeed thoughtful, and they can seek the overall situation for the benefit of the clan, and they are the best candidates for Zongzi." ”

For a while, the ladies all had different expressions, they didn't expect that Old Madam Cui would actually use this as a test to choose a candidate for the sect.

The second lady's face was cloudy, she originally thought that the overall situation had been decided, and the position of the son of the sect would never leave the second room, but now she had to solve the current predicament to have a chance, and she was very disappointed.

What's more, it's not a simple matter, where do they have any way!

She couldn't help but open her mouth to say something, but Zheng Yuan quietly pulled the corner of her clothes, made a look, and said in a low voice: "Ah Jia, the old lady is just afraid that she has made up her mind, or is she ......."

Second Mrs. Cui suddenly came to her senses, raised her eyes to look at Old Madam Cui, and saw her looking at herself coldly, she couldn't help but feel excited, I was afraid that Old Madam Cui had already seen through her thoughts, and as soon as she opened her mouth, she was afraid that she would immediately veto it, let alone give the position of the son of the sect to the second room.

She had to accept it and think of a way.

Thinking of this, she pulled out a smile: "The old lady said very well, the position of the son of the sect must be inhabited by capable people. ”

Old Madam Cui looked at her slightly flickering gaze, and then glanced at the third lady on the other side who looked uneasy and the Wang family who was eager to try, and finally closed her eyes tiredly: "That's it, you guys go." ”

The second lady was already anxious to go back to discuss this matter, so she hurriedly got up: "The old lady is afraid that she is also tired, so we will retreat first, and come back tomorrow to greet the old lady." ”

She said goodbye to the old lady with a smile on her face, Xie followed in a daze, Zheng Yuan secretly slandered this Ah family in her heart It was really unbearable, looking shrewd, in fact, that little bit of thought was almost written on her face, and the cover was very superficial.

She got up steadily, bowed to Mrs. Cui, and smiled: "Autumn is high and dry, I let the kitchen boil autumn pear paste, and I will send it to the old lady later." ”

Old Madam Cui glanced at her more, her face softened, and nodded: "Let's go with your family." ”

Seeing that the three people in the second room were gone, he turned his head to look at the third lady again: "What do you think?" ”

The third lady was stunned for a moment, looked at Mrs. Cui, as if she didn't understand what she meant, and said with a smile after a while: "The old lady is relieved, everyone will work together to have a way." ”

Mrs. Cui was also noncommittal, but said to Wang: "I haven't seen Xinlang for a few days, the academy is closed today, you should go back early." ”

Wang never thought that Mrs. Cui would talk about Cui Xinlai deliberately, and she was overjoyed for a while, but she didn't dare to show it, so she agreed with a smile and went out with Mrs. Cui San.

"At this time, I was still thinking about you fighting for me, and I didn't think about it for the clan at all, just caring about that idea of selfish interests, and the century-old family business would be defeated in their hands sooner or later!" Old Madam Cui watched them all leave, and then said with a gloomy face.

Mrs. Cui who was sitting in the hall couldn't help but bow her head, where could she not hear Mrs. Cui's blame, for Cui Lin's decision, although Mrs. Cui didn't say it explicitly, she was very angry in her heart, the Cui family had deep hopes for Cui Lin, but she didn't want him to give up the position of the son of the sect in order to marry a woman who was not from a family.

Only Gu Mingzhu sat there with a pale face, not happy or annoyed, not moved by anything at all.

The old lady Cui and the eldest lady looked at her so calmly, but the dissatisfaction in their hearts was a little less, not to mention anything else, at least they could be calm in the face of the matter of choosing another sect son, which showed that they didn't care.

The matter has come to this point, and Mrs. Cui is not in the mood to say anything more, so Mrs. Cui's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law also go back.

On the way back, Mrs. Cui didn't say a word, but her brows were furrowed, and her face was not good-looking. It wasn't until she arrived at the gate of Yusheng Courtyard that she called Gu Mingzhu: "These days...... There are a lot of things in the house, Gorou is afraid that it will be difficult to come back, you just arrived in the house, if you have nothing to do, go over and point out A-Ning's female red. ”

Gu Mingzhu understood, and thanked Mrs. Cui with a smile.

The eldest lady naturally still looked so plain, nodded and led people back to the courtyard.

Where did she ask Gu Mingzhu to guide Cui Ning Nuhong, and she wanted Cui Ning to accompany her, for fear that she would not be comfortable staying alone when she first arrived.

Gu Mingzhu smiled, and waited for Xiaokui to turn around and go back, she felt that people with cold faces and hot hearts were much better than those who looked gentle and amiable, but were ruthless in their hearts.

Compared to the stagnant calm in the long room, the second room was almost full of excitement.

The second lady took Xie and Zheng Yuan back to her courtyard, and immediately sent someone to the front yard to invite Cui Jin, and Zhang Luo was about to bring the news to the Cui Wei brothers who had already set off for Huainan Road.

“…… Now that the old lady has to solve the affairs of the Zheng family before she is willing to give us the position of the son, how can this be good? The second lady frowned, and said anxiously, "Where is the Zheng family so easy to get along with, although the two families have been good friends over the years, but now the Zheng family is clearly right, but they will not let go easily." ”

Xie Shi pulled out a smile of embarrassment: "Didn't Grandpa and Lang Jun say that there are still some Zhuangzi shops everywhere, and they are not afraid to support it for a while, as long as the officers and soldiers eliminate those bandits, they can ...... it."

The second lady glared at her angrily: "If it's that simple, what's there to worry about, those thieves are there, someone did it on purpose!" ”

Xie didn't dare to say much, so he had to say in a loud voice: "How can this be like this, how can this be good?" She also knew that the second lady was in a hurry, and she didn't dare to raise her head to answer.

Zheng Yuan sighed softly, and personally served tea and stepped forward: "Ah Jia, don't worry, I have already asked someone to bring a letter back to Xingyang, and I always have to ask for clarity before I have a good idea." ”

The second lady's eyes were like lightning, and she swept towards her with a slight cold smile: "Yes, you are the daughter of the Zheng family, and the Zheng family's plans should be very clear." ”
