Great Sui Storyteller

Chapter 488 487. Brother Said

"Woo... chi... chi... woo..."

"..."

Looking at the girl who was sobbing non-stop, standing at the table with her head bowed and feeling extremely aggrieved, a trace of distress flashed in Brother Gongzi's eyes, but it was more of a kind of dumbfounded speechlessness.

Pulling out the sweat towel from his sleeve, he handed it to Xiao Cui, and after sweeping up and down the set of "Chivalrous Women's Clothes" on her body, he sighed softly:
"Hey... you, you, why are you so uneasy? Do you know how worried father and mother are when you sneak out? It's almost like digging three feet into the ground! Why do you... ..."

"Woooooooo..."

Little Cui Nvxia cried even more sadly, not knowing whether it was pain or grievance.

Now, even the young master couldn't say anything. He glanced at the second younger sister who was silently cleaning up the chessboard at the table next to him. After thinking about it, he put on the appearance of being a big brother:
"Okay! Don't cry anymore, go, change your clothes yourself. How is it proper for a girl to dress like this? Don't run around, do you hear me, change your clothes and come back!"

"Woo...my clothes...are outside...I...I'll go out and change, and I'll be back later."

"..."

"..."

This time, the woman cleaning the chessboard raised her head again.

Brother Young Master waved his hands quickly, fearing that his sister would make trouble again, he instinctively protected Xiao Cui, and said dumbfoundingly:
"What do you think of your brother and me? Fool? Huh? Go outside? How can you come back after going outside? Hurry up, or your second sister will beat you again!"

"..."

Seeing that the plan failed, Little Cui Nvxia stopped crying.

But he didn't move his footsteps, he just hugged Young Master's arm:

"Brother!! Can you let me go!...I don't want to marry anyone! Who wants to marry that nerd of the Lu family! The second sister can't marry anyone, and I don't want to either!! They don't want to~~~~~ ~~~"

As she shook Brother Young Master's arm, her entire voice began to tremble.

Brother Young Master looked helpless when he was shaken by her, but his expression darkened when he heard the latter sentence.

At this time, a cough sounded.

"Cough cough."

The woman who cleared the chessboard cleared her throat, and said as if she didn't hear any outrageous words:
"Go and change clothes."

"..."

"Don't make me say it a second time."

"..."

Little Cui, who hadn't moved a word from the first sentence, immediately froze.

Accompanied by the woman pointing to a room in the backyard, she let go, and reluctantly walked towards the room.

After the door was closed, Brother Young Master let out a sigh, and sat back in front of the stone table, holding a teacup with a sad expression on his brows, and at the same time trying to cover up that he didn't want her to talk about certain things and said:
"Although I know it's inappropriate to say these things, I don't like Lu Huanyang either."

"..."

The woman on the other side of the table didn't seem to hear it, and turned a deaf ear.

"Confucianism has completely declined since the abolition of Prince Yang Yong. I can see that the Lu family wants to elevate the status of Confucianism as a whole. If this is done, I am afraid that scholars in the world will become Confucianists in the future. And Shi Lu's appearance. This trick...is really good. Uncle Lu's father is a hero, and I really admire it in my heart. But Lu Huanyang...he is just a bastard! If Cai Wei follows him...it is nothing more than two relatives. What's the point?"

"The meaning is that if she marries Lu Huanyang, she doesn't have to be the concubine of Lu's eldest son. The woman from my Cui family is only a regular wife, not a concubine. Now Lu Chu of the Lu family is trusted by the king of Yue, and it is a certainty that he will gain power. Now Lu Among the heirs of the family, although Lu Huanyang is a bastard, he is also the most ordinary. One does not fight for power, and the other has no ambitions. The Lu family wants to revive Confucianism and become the patriarch of the world's students. This move...is very dangerous. A little carelessness, Everything is lost. Caiwei doesn't need her husband to be so good, because she is from the Cui family! But I don't want her to be displaced by her husband's order like so many women and children who fled here in Hedong."

The woman replied flatly.

But the son-in-law disagreed:

"It's true that Lu Chu is in power, don't forget! King Yue is not only surrounded by Lu Chu, but also the Mo family, the Yin Yang family, and even the evil-minded Li Shilang's Pegasus City, which is rich and invincible!  …Lu This move is too risky. If Confucianism revives, the first ones to bear the brunt will be those around the King of Yue who want to trample Confucianism to death! Tomorrow is Emperor Wen’s memorial day, and the Sui Emperor will set off the day after tomorrow. It’s time for Luoyang This game has only just begun! At this time... you want me to marry my most beloved girl to the Lu family and push her into the pit of fire!?...Impossible!"

Following the words, Brother Young Master's eyes showed an increasingly persistent firmness:
"I was able to protect you back then! Now I can protect Caiwei just the same! The daughter of my Cui family will not worry about getting married! I don't believe that after the situation calms down, there will be fewer people in the Caiwei Society!"

"elder brother!"

After hearing his words, a trace of tenderness finally appeared in the eyes of the woman who had always been calm.

But after being gentle, she firmly refused:
"It is because of this that Caiwei has to leave...Because I have already implicated my eldest brother, if this time continues, I am afraid that I will completely lose power in the clan..."

"Then is this fair to Caiwei?"

Without letting her go on, Brother Young Master laughed at himself.

It also left the woman speechless.

Yes.

Is it fair?
For my sister, I have to sacrifice.

But he chose to escape.

Is it fair?
Is there any fairness at all?
Looking at the speechless woman, Brother Gongzi's eyes are full of tenderness:
"Everyone in the world knows that the gentry in Shandong Shangyanya, the gentry in Jiangzuo Shangren, the gentry in Guanzhong Shang Guanmian, and the nobles in Daibei Shanggui. Everyone in the world is proud to marry the daughter of my Cui family, but who would have thought that I, the Cui family? How sad it is for a woman who is so charming and beautiful, but can't choose her own sweetheart."

Saying that, he stood up.

He came to the woman's side and gently placed his hand on her head.

Just like when I was a child, with immature words, I made an unusually firm voice:
"Sister is my brother's younger sister. When my sister is bullied, my brother will stand up for you. Whatever my sister wants, my brother will help you get it. My brother should protect my sister from being wronged for the rest of my life. Don't worry about my sister. If anything happens, There will always be a brother."

"..."

The childish words didn't move the woman halfway.

Yes, just endless guilt and sadness.

even remorse...

But Brother Gongzi didn't care, he gently stroked her hair:
"You are like this, isn't that sister who has followed you since childhood and is the closest to you? ... Well, since God let us three brothers and sisters meet here, it means that it is God's will. Lu Huanyang, Cui Gan's sister Never marry a mediocre person. If you don’t like it, then don’t marry! Although my brother is trapped in this little trap, who can say for sure in the future? Right.”

"But if daddy knows..."

"Why do you know?"

Seeing that the woman still hesitated, Cui Gan smiled cunningly:
"Do you think the magistrate of Xiang County is really so obedient? Back then he was humiliated under Lu Da's family because of his bad background. Even if I lost power, I was still the second and third son of the Cui family. Maybe Lu Da would not remember him There was a stupid student who came from a family of merchants, but the third son of the Cui family remembered him, and he would receive a tea party letter from me tomorrow morning at the latest. People, don’t use it. But I do remember him. Is that enough? And this Yu Qiang, besides our room, is there anyone else? What's more..."

The more he said, the brighter his eyes became:

"Then Li Shouchu and Xuanzang, one is the person who attracted Li Shilang to protect him at the New Year's Eve banquet, and was accepted as a disciple by Master Suning. One hand and the same light can make the seeds fall to the ground and bloom. The other is 500 years The most promising disciple of the Buddha, the chief disciple under the seat of the three gods and monks in the Bodhi Temple. The Taoist riding a tiger is even more amazing. Among the only fifteen first-rank alchemists in the world, he ranks among the top three. And...you You don't really think that the brothers from the Du family are simple characters, do you?
Since the Priest Shouchu and Venerable Master Xuanzang want to pour the water in the river east, let them pour it. The movement of Li Yuan's house in recent years...is too ambiguous.It seems to be in a corner of peace, but on the side of Chang'an back then, I could clearly see the ambition in Li Jiancheng's eyes.I don't believe his family can't understand the situation in this world.Not to mention... Erlang of the Li family is not far behind his elder brother. "

And hearing what he said here, the woman also nodded slightly, following his train of thought and said to herself:

"That's right. There's a small river east, where we Cui, Wang, Lu, Du, and Pei already have, and Li Yuan will send people over soon. The water is getting muddier."

"In troubled times, if you want to gain momentum, it's justified."

Cui Gan's eyes fell on the blank chessboard made of basswood:
"The emperor loses virtue, this name, I have it. And the rest is nothing more than money, food, horses, swords and long bows. The salt in the east is a huge piece of fat, and everyone wants to take a bite. Then just wait. .Wait and see Li Yuan...or who is the Li family sent out. In the future, Hedong may be fine on the surface, but the fight behind the scenes will only be more dangerous than before.

Let's just watch it.On the other side of the family, both Dou Jiande and Luo Yi want to get support from our family.After all, we are just a family, not some warlord with a large army.Wanting to survive in the cracks, Dad's eyes can't see this way for the time being.So... just wait.Let Caiwei stay by our side well. "

"But when will we wait? The news of her being here will reach the Lu family sooner or later. By then... Daddy will definitely be very angry. "

There was a little worry in the woman's eyes.

"What if we can wait until the dust settles?"

"..."

Now, Cui Qian didn't know what to say.

And at this moment, there was a creaking sound from the door, and a woman who looked gentle and graceful walked out with steps so elegant that she couldn't find any faults.

"Ha~"

Cui Gan was happy.

"That's right, it's reasonable to wear this outfit. What does the suit you wore just now look like! Right? Wanrong, Caiwei has grown up..."

"..."

The woman named Cui Wanrong looked at her little sister who seemed to have changed into a different person, and responded:
"Ah."
