Chapter 10: To each his own heart
After Guo Jiao and Mrs. Li left, the feast became a family banquet. Cui Xianggong and his wife sat at the top, Cui Yuanzao and Liu Lanyin sat at the bottom, each with their own left and right.
"Yang Niangzi mourns, hearing the bad news of your grandfather, the court is also very shocked, fortunately, now Zhaoyi Town is at the end of the crossbow, presumably soon, the court will be able to win, and you can also comfort your grandfather and aunt's spirit in the sky."
Cui Dan looked at the bright lady next, and his heart was entangled.
At first, he didn't agree with his younger brother's family affairs for Azaoding, Yang Chun is a capable official, but he is quite inflammatory, and he is not a good match.
However, before he could raise any objections, his brother had already died, and he could not go against his brother's last wishes again.
When Yang Yin's bad news came, he was relieved in his heart for a while, Azao could marry with other five families, and it would also be beneficial for him to take over the position of sect master.
However, before he could act, the daughter of the Guo family jumped out again.
Azao's side is also uneasy, unwilling to participate in secular affairs, and dedicated to cultivating.
Unexpectedly, Yang Niangzi didn't die, and according to Lingcong, Azao actually liked her quite a lot?
If she can make Azao rest her mind of cultivation, and then look at her words and deeds, if it is appropriate, it is not impossible for her to marry Azao.
Thinking of this, Cui Dan showed a kind smile.
Looking at Cui Xianggong's smiling face, Lan Yin was uncomfortable.
Lan Yin deliberately told Cui Xianggong that the Yang family was by no means killed at the hands of the rebels in Zhaoyi Town, but she was afraid that Cui Xianggong would investigate in-depth and expose her identity, and her heart was entangled.
Lan Yin could only silently confess to Yang Niangzi in her heart, "When I finish my own business, I will definitely seek justice for you." ”
Thinking of this, Lan Yin covered the corners of her eyes with a silk handkerchief, and only said, "Thank you Cui Xianggong." Since childhood, he was frail, and he was sent to the Taoist hall to learn some rough kung fu, and he was able to escape from the rebels. ”
After saying that, Lan Yin really cried and rippled, she remembered her grandfather and aunt who died tragically, who can come to avenge them?
Cui Yuanzao frowned and looked at Lan Yin, was she really sad for Yang Yin or was her acting too good?
Could it be that he was wrong, she really had something to do with the Yang family?
"Rong Niang, quickly collect your tears, today is a happy day, here you are, it will be a good day in the future." Aunt Rou took out a silk handkerchief from her arms and wiped Lan Yin's tears.
Lan Yin gradually calmed down, but in the end, her whole face was crying.
"Ah, poor boy." Aunt Rou sighed and said to Mrs. Cui, who was on top, "I'll take Mrs. Yang to change clothes." ”
Mrs. Cui nodded.
Waiting for Lan Yin to walk away, Cui Dan couldn't help but say: "This lady is so weak, can she take on the responsibility of a clan woman?" ”
Cui Yuanzao listened to his uncle's words, almost choked out the tea, and coughed again and again, can this be called weak?
Mrs. Cui glanced at Cui Yuanzao and said with a smile: "You, when it comes to court battles, I am inferior to you." When it comes to looking at the ladies of all families, you are not as good as me. ”
"Oh? What is Madame's opinion? Cui Dan poured a cup of tea for his wife.
"This lady is not a weak person. When it should be soft, when it should be strong, when it should be strong. You didn't see it, she didn't say hello to that Guo Niangzi. Mrs. Cui burst out laughing as she spoke.
Cui Dan frowned and said, "Isn't this offending the Guo family?" ”
"Are you old fool? Still thinking about marrying the Guo family? Let's talk about Guo Jiao's temper, that is, the Guo family is deeply involved in the struggle for imperial power, and I don't look down on them. ”
Madame was furious. I said it casually. Cui Dan said.
"You say it casually? If it weren't for the sudden appearance of a Yang lady, you are afraid that you will go against Ah Qi's last wishes, I think you would have agreed a long time ago. ”
"It's not Li Deyu's power, I think the Guo family takes the initiative to talk, maybe it's also an opportunity. Besides, I'm sure I'll listen to Madame's opinion. Looking at it now, this Guo Niangzi has a bad character and cannot be considered. Cui Dan swore a curse.
"Don't say that Yang Niangzi pushed Guo Niangzi a few times, even if she scratched her face, there is nothing to be afraid of. If people like us are still being bullied in our own backyard, we can't act arbitrarily, what do you want you to do in foreign courts? What kind of partisan dispute, how can Azao's happiness be important? When Mrs. Cui said this, she couldn't help but wipe away her tears.
"Madame is right, but Mrs. Guo is not wrong at all, this lady has been following Azao is not a way, should I notify the relatives of the Yang family of Hongnong and take Mrs. Yang away temporarily? lest gossip gossip! Cui Dan hurriedly wiped away his wife's tears.
How can this be? Azao is finally tempted, it is the time to add fire, if he leaves, with Azao's temperament, maybe the marriage event will be really cold.
"This lady has just suffered a catastrophe, and someone around her is about to be explained, and you coldly threw her to an unfamiliar house, didn't you make her suffer? What's more, she has to cooperate with Azao to handle the case, if you think she is not good, I will teach her a lot. Mrs. Cui wiped her tears and secretly gave Cui Yuanzao a look.
Cui Yuanzao has been accustomed to the way the two elders get along since he was a child, and in the end, the eldest aunt always won a big victory, glanced at the eldest aunt gratefully, and quietly slipped away.
——
Cui Yuanzao had just walked out of Ronghui Hall when he saw Aunt Rou coming over with Lan Yin, so he greeted him.
"I didn't have time to ask you, how are you doing lately?"
"Okay, you don't have to worry about me, but yourself, don't blindly cultivate, what is there to cultivate in that way?" Aunt Rou looked at Cui Yuanzao tenderly and said angrily.
Lan Yin looked curious from the side, she originally thought that Aunt Rou was Mrs. Cui's servant, but now it doesn't look like it, who is this Aunt Rou?
"Oh, yes. I just walked on the road and met the steward of the warehouse, saying that the prince had something to give you, so I brought it to you. Aunt Rou handed Cui Yuanzao a boxy rosewood box.
"Thank you, Aunt Rou." Cui Yuanzao didn't open it, and put it directly in his sleeve.
Aunt Rou turned around and took Lan Yin's hand again, and instructed: "Ah Zao will be handed over to you in the future, and I want to remind him to eat on time and eat more meat." ”
Lan Yin looked at Aunt Rou's misty eyes, stunned, thinking of her own mother, if she was still alive, she must have told herself like this, right? Lan Yin nodded solemnly.
"Alright, I'll go in. Go back too! ”
Aunt Rou's back gradually fell into the thick of the begonia, "When my grandfather was alive, she liked crimson the most, but now she doesn't wear that color anymore." ”
"She's your grandpa's concubine?" Lan Yin muttered.
"Well, after Grandpa passed away, she didn't want to leave, so my aunt arranged for her to take care of me."
This is simply a heart-wrenching contrast, his mother married another woman, but his aunt guarded him, Lan Yin looked at Cui Yuanzao sympathetically.
Cui Yuanzao turned his head, didn't look at Lan Yin, stared at the rosewood box in his hand and said, "Okay, the key physical evidence of Lu Qian's case is already in my hands." ”
