For the first time in his life, Cui Pu regretted giving birth to a daughter.

knew that the consequence of raising his daughter was to watch her sad and sad for someone else's little Langjun, and he would not have let Mu Jiaojiao give birth to them if he died!

It's a pity that it's too late to regret it now.

The eldest lady took a deep breath and spoke slowly for a long time: "Is that so?" Then he nodded, "Since this is the case, then I will listen to A-Niang's arrangement and go back to Chang'an to let my grandfather and grandmother help me choose someone to marry." ”

"Big lady, have you really decided?" Cui Pu listened, and his heart couldn't help but hurt even more.

Hey, it's hard to be a father. It's uncomfortable for her daughter to have a sweetheart, and it's uncomfortable for her daughter to be with her sweetheart, and now that her daughter is giving up on herself and wants to marry casually, he is even more uncomfortable.

The eldest lady fixed her head: "I gave him a chance to marry me, but he didn't come." In that case, I don't want him either!"

Then he turned around, his cloak fluttered in the wind, and he walked away with a dashing step.

Cui Pu turned his head and showed a bitter face to Mu Jiaojiao: "Lady, what should I do now!"

"Didn't the eldest lady say everything? Go back to Chang'an and find someone to marry her. Mu Jiaojiao said, "Speaking of which, my aunt and sister-in-law have often written to me over the years, repeatedly reminding me that the eldest lady should talk about others, and it is not a matter of delaying any longer." ”

"She's not ......," Cui Pu whispered.

"She's eighteen years old!" Mu Jiaojiao reminded him angrily, "I've been married to you for two years at this age!"

"Ah, is there such a thing?" Cui Pu seemed to react. But thinking about it, he couldn't help but have a sour nose, and got into Mu Jiaojiao's arms, "Lady, what should I do? The eldest lady grew up with my own eyes, no matter how old she grows, she is still a child in my opinion." I really don't want to marry her!"

"It's useless if you don't give up. This is your eldest daughter, and marrying well will definitely be of great help to you in the future. Mu Jiaojiao coldly pushed him away.

Cui Pu cheekily wrapped up again: "I don't need her to bring me any help." I just want my daughter to live happily and carefree for the rest of her life. ”

"If you have the ability, do you really want to keep her by your side for the rest of your life?" Mu Jiaojiao was angry and funny, "You just give me the heart to die! Besides, now that she has a spring heart, do you think you can still stop it? If you really want her to be happy and stable, you'd better follow her wishes!"

"But I can't bear to ......"

"When the eldest lady really hates you, you will regret it. ”

Stimulated by her like this, Cui Pu stopped talking, he only hugged Mu Jiaojiao tightly and buried his head in her shoulder socket for a long time.

In the evening, he finally spoke: "You take the eldest lady and them back to Chang'an! You keep an eye on it and find her a good family." I don't care about that!"

"You really don't care?" Mu Jiaojiao didn't believe him.

Cui Pu glanced at her sadly. "You'd better not even tell me who that person is until the marriage is decided. Otherwise, I would definitely be tempted to run and kill him!"

As long as he thought that someone would hug his baby daughter Hua Qianyue in the future, and he was obsessed, his heart hurt so badly that he couldn't wait to catch that bastard and beat him up! Of course, Li Xiang, who dared to hurt the heart of the eldest lady, also wanted to beat him up, and then break the corpse into thousands of pieces, and throw the corpse on the grassland to feed the wild wolves!

Mu Jiaojiao smiled. "Okay, I got it. Unless people are set and the days are optimistic, I will never tell you, so I will continue to keep the illusion that the eldest lady is still by your side in your mind, okay?"

Cui Pu nodded sullenly.

Immediately, he fell into Mu Jiaojiao's arms again: "Lady, I'm sad!"

Mu Jiaojiao was speechless and looked up at the sky.

The eldest lady is really not young. Therefore, since she decided to go back to Chang'an to find someone for her, Mu Jiaojiao quickly packed up and took the eldest lady, Da Langjun and Erlang Jun to Chang'an.

"The little lady stays and lets her accompany you to relieve your boredom. Before leaving, Mu Jiaojiao said to Cui Pu.

Cui Pu looked down at the little daughter beside him, and saw the little lady raise her head and smile at him, so she took out a piece of osmanthus candy from her arms: "Daddy, eat sugar, it's so sweet!"

Cui Pu took a bite and found that it was indeed very sweet. However, no matter how sweet the sugar is, it can't offset the bitterness that he can't stop knowing that the eldest lady is going to marry him! She hurriedly hugged the little lady into her arms: "One piece is not enough, Daddy needs more." ”

"That's right, but I don't have much!" the little lady's face wrinkled. But in the end, she gritted her teeth, took out the oiled paper bag wrapped in osmanthus candy in pain, and sent it all to Cui Pu, "That's all I have for you! Daddy, you won't cry after eating, you have to be good!"

"Well, Daddy ate it and behaved. Cui Pu nodded, and ate several pieces of osmanthus cake with the little lady's small hands.

Mu Jiaojiao watched the father and daughter through the car window and couldn't help but shake her head. Looking back at the eldest lady again, she whispered: "This time, your father is really sad." ”

"It's me who is wrong. But ......" The eldest lady couldn't help but have red eyes, and hurriedly hugged Mu Jiaojiao's arm with both hands, "A-Niang, I'm still uncomfortable!"

"Okay, my daughter's family, it's inevitable to be sad when you encounter this kind of thing. And you really like someone, and you have experienced the sweet taste of a girl's spring. is much happier than other women who married in a daze and lived a lifetime with their husbands. Mu Jiaojiao touched her head and said softly.

The eldest lady nodded tearfully. "Auntie, what you said is true. With you and Daddy to protect me, I've been presumptuous enough over the years. This is the last time I break Daddy's heart, and I will never do it again. ”

Hurt once, this kid is much more sensible. Although they would rather she not become so sensible.

Mu Jiaojiao sighed softly, then only rubbed the top of her daughter's soft head and stopped talking.

Along the way, they walked for nearly three months before returning to Chang'an.

When I arrived in Chang'an, it was the season of spring flowers. Chang'an in April is much warmer than Liangzhou, and the boys and girls on the street are lightly dressed and colorful, all of them are full of smiles, and their bodies are full of youthful vitality.

Sister-in-law Zheng took a room of concubines to welcome Mu Jiaojiao's mother and son.

Let's go and meet Mrs. Cui first. Mrs. Cui looked forward to it day and night, hoping that her grandchildren were almost blind. It was easy to look forward to the children's return, so she quickly pulled the eldest lady to her side and sat down.

"Hurry up and let my grandmother take a look! Oh, look at the twelve ladies of my family, this appearance, this character, absolutely one in ten thousand. It's just that you husband and wife are stingy, and I haven't seen them all these years, and I haven't brought them back to show me!"

The eldest lady lowered her head and whispered: "It's the granddaughter who is not filial, and it has nothing to do with Daddy and Auntie." They're busy enough. ”

"Listen, how understanding is this child? He is good-looking, tame and obedient, sixth brother and sister, you husband and wife have really accumulated several lifetimes of virtue to raise such a good child? Take her out for a walk another day, I'm afraid that Xiao Langjun's eyes from other families will stick to her!" Zheng said with a smile, and was also full of praise for the eldest lady.

Other concubines, as well as the ladies of the eldest lady's generation who have already married wives, also echoed it.

The current identities of Cui Pu and Mu Jiaojiao are not as good as before. In addition to the boss Cui Yao, Cui Pu is the most capable person in the Cui family's generation. And to put it in detail, it is okay to compare these two brothers, after all, Cui Pu was unknown for the first 17 years as a concubine, and suddenly rose up in the next 20 years, and he was already a third-grade member at the age of less than 40. Although it is not up to the level of the feudal officials, the feudal officials in the south and north of the desert are all his good brothers!

And his career is not all dependent on the help of the Cui family, there have been several ups and downs in the officialdom, and after several dangers, everyone has seen it in their eyes. Now, he has gained a firm foothold in Liangzhou, and he has also gained a firm foothold in the Cui family. Even if everyone is envious and jealous in their hearts, they have to admit that their husband and wife are really capable. At least to be able to fight to the point where it is today, that is how many people will not be able to do it in a lifetime!

And for the eldest lady who is the most favored by Cui Pu, they naturally have enough strength to please.

Even, when I learned that the eldest lady was going back to Chang'an to choose a relative, how many people in their families were already in a sensation! These days, there are already quite a few people who have come to inquire about the situation. Presumably, when I see the eldest lady like this again, the people who come to the door to propose marriage will break through the threshold.

I have to admit that the eldest lady is really reincarnated!

Mrs. Cui took the eldest lady's hand and asked her for a long time, before she turned to Mu Jiaojiao with satisfaction, and then scolded with a straight face: "You, it's not me who said, or you're too used to Liulang! Look at the good things you and your husband and wife have done! Good little lady, let you stumble to this age." If I hadn't sent her back in a letter a month, would you still be planning to keep her with you and not marry?"

Women in this era have always married early, and many girls of the age of the eldest lady are already two or three children.

Mu Jiaojiao was taught that she had nothing to say, so she could only bow her head and admit her mistakes.

Zheng and the others were busy and persuaded softly. Coupled with the eldest lady's soft-spoken relief for her parents, Mrs. Cui's face was better, but she left the eldest lady by her side that night. Naturally, Mama Lu also came back with them this time. Seeing Mrs. Cui's master and servant, the two inevitably burst into tears of excitement again.

And because Da Lang Jun and Er Lang Jun are men, they are not young, so they only followed Mu Jiaojiao in to meet the elders at the beginning, and then they were taken by Cui Lin to live with the other brothers.

Cui Ge came back in the evening and compared their knowledge with Cui Ying, and then the father and son were full of praise for the brothers, and they were determined to take this opportunity to quickly settle the brothers' family affairs.

"It's time to decide. The twelve ladies are all eighteen years old, and the two little Langjun are also sixteen and fourteen, if they were in Chang'an, their family affairs should have been decided a long time ago. As a result, because I have been wandering outside and I haven't met any good people, it has been delayed until now, what a pity! A few good children have almost been delayed for the rest of their lives!" In the evening, Mrs. Cui couldn't help but sigh with Cui Gelao.

Cui Ge Lao just smiled and said, "It's only a few years of delay, it doesn't matter." As long as these children are good, there are many people who come to discuss relatives. Moreover, there are many women who marry late in our New Tang Dynasty. I think that at the beginning, the Empress Zetian's mother didn't marry until she was in her forties?"

"Having said that, but the Twelve Ladies are such a good child, I can't wait to pick her a first-class Langjun in the world. Mrs. Cui sighed, "Although Liulang is not born to me, but I have always hung a heart for them when they are in other places all these years, and every time I pray in front of the Buddha, I will light a stick of incense for them." Now that it's easy to see them gain a firm foothold, and the eldest lady has grown, I'm very satisfied. Especially when I saw her today, the satisfaction and joy in my heart were almost the same as the little lady who saw Dalang. ”

"I knew that Madame was virtuous. Seeing that the Boling Cui clan is flourishing, and now there is such a pillar as Rokuro, I am also overjoyed. Cui Ge Lao said, and quietly held her hand.

Mrs. Cui couldn't help but snort. "It's an old husband and wife, you still coax me with this kind of talk, and you are not ashamed!"

"As long as the lady likes to listen to it, she will not be ashamed to say it a hundred times for her husband. Cui Ge said busily.

Mrs. Cui quickly withdrew her hand. "That's it, ignore you! I'll take care of it and see if those people's little Langjun can match our twelve ladies." By the way, I had to call the embroidery shop to make her some new clothes, and a few more sets of jewelry...... By the way, I remember that there was a set of ruby heads in the storeroom, and this bright red color was the most suitable for the twelve ladies, so I had to quickly ask someone to melt it and remake a set to decorate the façade of the twelve ladies. The next time we go out again, the twelve ladies of our family must shake Chang'an!"

Half a month later, the eldest lady who had been carefully dressed up by Mrs. Cui finally appeared at the birthday banquet of the old lady Li in Longxi.

As soon as she appeared, she shook Chang'an City with her beauty, her calmness, and the rare heroism of the girls in Chang'an City.
