Pastoral affairs

After getting the news that day, Cui Wei already had some confidence in her heart. She didn't know how to tell Cui Jingping about it, but her busy preparations for the marriage slowed down.Within a few days, it was reported that the emperor recovered from his illness, but the prince fell ill because of it. The emperor was very distressed and couldn't bear the prince to share his worries. He dragged his body to deal with state affairs. In order to pray for the prince, he ordered the Daqing Dynasty In the middle half of the month, weddings and celebrations are not allowed, and all noise and entertainment are prohibited, so that the prince's body can recover as soon as possible!

Cui Jingping's marriage was originally scheduled for the end of June, but now that the emperor has a golden mouth and teeth, once the decree is issued, the marriage will naturally not go ahead.Mrs. Xu came to discuss with her, and the words between the lines indicated that this marriage needs to be considered more carefully. When she came over, she even brought over the gift list that Cui Wei had prepared for Cui Jingping. What it is, Cui Wei naturally understands in her heart.Mrs. Xu probably had already made up her mind during this trip, and her complexion was not as strong as it was when she dealt with Cui Wei before. Instead, she had a smile on her face, and when she handed the gift list to Cui Wei, she couldn't see her. The previous apprehension and gloom brought Cui Wei's arrogance and slight contempt when she first met her.

"Ms. Nie, this is Cui Sanlang's betrothal gift. Now that the emperor has issued a decree to prohibit marriage, in my opinion, this marriage is also destined to be like this. I need to think about it again. I don't dare Accept it, Madam Nie picks it up first, and if there is a destiny in the future, I will mention it later." Xu's face was filled with an unstoppable smile, and while reaching out to caress his temples, there was a sense of relief on his face. color.

Since the marriage was agreed upon by the two families at the beginning.Although Nie Qiuran had already mentioned to Cui Wei that the emperor might intervene in this marriage, she might not be able to make it go on, she already had a bottom line in her heart, but now that Xu Shi said it in person like a demonstration, Cui Wei's heart She still couldn't help getting angry, and made people pick up the list. Since Xu's family is so shameless, it's just that the marriage is not going to happen, but she still wants to feel proud.No wonder she didn't save face for Mrs. Xu!

"Since Mrs. Qin has said everything, you should go and check to see if there is anything missing. Although Mrs. Qin is a noble person, she can't see these yellow and white things, but she can't help but show it to anyone with shallow eyes. Hit!" These words were directed at Mrs. Xu.At the beginning Xu asked for 5000 taels of silver, but now if she comes back, it's fine if she can talk about it. It's not that Cui Wei doesn't understand that everyone has difficulties, but she wants to put on airs, so Cui Wei is naturally not polite to her.

Now that the marriage is not settled, the two families can't say that they will have grudges in the future.Swallowing her breath, Xu may not necessarily recognize her well.As soon as Cui Wei said this, the people below immediately agreed.Sure enough, he took the list from Xu's hand and went down.Mrs. Xu just said a word casually, but Cui Wei really wanted to say something to count, and she was immediately ashamed and angry!He hated himself for being too quick to speak out just now, giving her a handle, and looking down on Cui Wei's small family, as expected, she has no eyesight and no knowledge, and even the money has to be counted.Big family, who would do this?Xu himself was born in a family of officials.The husband she married is the magistrate of Yizhou. Although 5000 taels is a lot, her background is no better than ordinary people. She still doesn't look down on 5000 taels.

Thinking of this, a trace of contempt flashed in Xu's eyes, and he nodded proudly: "Madam Nie, please order, and please elaborate, so as not to cause trouble in the future!" Married to such a family, it's really embarrassing.Xu thought about it in her heart, and she was somewhat unwilling and worried about the faint intention of her superiors to marry her daughter to the Lu family. Now when she saw Cui Wei, those only unwillingness gradually disappeared.

Cui Wei felt furious when she saw Mrs. Xu's appearance, and Mrs. Xu on the other end was not happy. After thinking about it, she said: "Mrs. Nie has given birth to a good mother. Since the marriage is not settled now, I hope Mrs. Nie will tell your mother. Don't come to our house to say that you want to see your daughter-in-law, after all, now that the emperor has issued an order, we should avoid it." Cui Wei didn't know that Mrs. Yang went to Xu's house, no wonder Mrs. Xu is here today It looked strange, but he couldn't help but felt a little depressed, so he asked the servants to order some money with a sullen face.Originally, I just wanted to make Mrs. Xu feel disgusted, but who would have thought that the last person who came down to report back, unexpectedly, out of the 5000 taels of silver, more than 90 taels of silver were really missing, not to mention, there were also a few pearl hairpins and two bracelets missing in the head jewelry. .

As soon as the servants came to report back, Cui Wei looked at Mrs. Xu whose expression changed immediately with a half-smile, and said, "I can trust Mrs. Qin's reputation, but I still have some eyelids when I want to come to Mrs. Qin's house." It's shallow." Xu's originally very determined expression suddenly changed, and he became a little restless, and quickly stood up, gritted his teeth a little bit angrily, and smirked with Cui Wei, turned back Then he said to the woman next to him: "Go and see if it is really missing!" The woman agreed, and followed Bi Liu out again, Xu's complexion was ugly at this moment, and Cui Weiku Sitting in the living room, after more than half an hour, the woman came in, her face was a little blue, she leaned into Xu's ear and whispered a few words, Xu stood up immediately, and reluctantly said:

"This is due to my ineffectiveness in disciplining my servants. I am here to apologize to Mrs. Nie. I will pay back double the difference. I still have something to do at home, so I will leave." Mrs. Xu straightened her back when she left, although Her expression was still haughty, but it was just revealed that the people under her were ignorant of some money, and now she lost all face in the end.

At this point, although Cui Wei already has a bottom line in her heart, knowing that her marriage with Qin Shuyu may not be possible, but now she really gave up.

Not long after Mrs. Xu left, people outside came to report that it was Cui Jingping and others who had come!Now Cui Wei was looking for him, when she heard Cui Jingping came over, she quickly asked someone to call them in.Cui Shicai's family also followed, Yang Shi walked beside Cui Shifu, and said angrily when he came: "We will not end the marriage with the Qin family!" She was still angry now, Cui Wei looked at it coldly She glanced at her but didn't make a sound, and the Liu family on the side laughed gloatingly: "Sister and sister, what kind of family is the Qin family? If you come to teach your daughter-in-law how to behave, of course they will ignore you. My girl, spend a few taels of silver to buy it home, and let you beat and scold me!"

"Since she has a noble status, she shouldn't marry into our family. No matter what, being a daughter-in-law has a reason to be a daughter-in-law!" Yang Shi was a little angry when she said this, and she went to Qin's house to think about it for the past two days. He wanted to meet his future daughter-in-law, after all, his son was getting married, and the mother hadn't seen her future daughter-in-law yet, so it couldn't be justified anywhere.This youngest son has never been close to Yang Shi, if he finds another daughter-in-law who is not close to him, he only knows how to face Cui Wei, what will happen to her as a mother?With such thoughts in mind, Yang went to the Xu family's door. Unexpectedly, the first time she went back, she was invited out without seeing Qin Shuyu's face. The second time, Liu wanted to go with her desperately. This time, his expression changed, and he actually drove her out.

It's okay to lose face in front of anyone, but such a thing happened in front of his own sister-in-law. Yang's face can't be held back, and now he keeps talking about not marrying the Qin family.Cui Jingping had a gloomy face and didn't speak, but Cui Shifu on the other end tried to persuade her a few words. Yang also knew that it would be of no benefit to her if she made a fuss like this, but she couldn't get over this hurdle in her heart, so naturally there were some dissatisfied words in her mouth.

Cui Wei listened for a long time, her face became even colder: "If you don't want to tie it, then don't tie it, anyway, Mrs. Qin has sent back the dowry." Cui Wei didn't bother to talk to these people, and just gave Yang's words to her in one sentence. Blocked, Mrs. Liu looked at Mrs. Yang in disbelief, with a look of gloating on her face, but Mrs. Yang was a little anxious, and hurriedly said: "Why is this happening? It's so good, why don't you end it?"

"Don't you always think about not wanting to end? Now that it's what you want, what else do you want?" Cui Wei was also very angry at the beginning of the morning, Nie Qiuran said Yes, she shouldn't be meddling in business early in the morning, so she couldn't help hearing Yang's complaints now: "Since you are so afraid that my third brother will marry a wife and forget his mother, this matter Don't ask me any more!"

"I'm just talking casually. Could it be that Miss Qin is still so temperamental?" Although Yang was dissatisfied with her son's marriage to a daughter-in-law, she didn't come to see her first, but she could tell from the bottom of her heart that if she could marry an official Daughter-in-law, that's still very face-saving, and the family can hold their heads up, which is much more beneficial than marrying their daughter to the number one scholar. After all, the daughter-in-law belongs to oneself, and the daughter belongs to someone else's family.

When Cui Jingping heard that Cui Wei said that Mrs. Xu had sent back the betrothal gift, she was shocked immediately, her face changed instantly, she pursed her lips tightly and did not speak, but Mrs. Yang on the other end kept saying: "Why did you withdraw? I Just talking casually." With a look of panic on her face, she was just venting, why did the Qin family really call off the marriage?Yang couldn't take it anymore, so she fell softly on Cui Shifu on the spot.Cui Wei didn't bother to talk to them anymore, so she said directly: "The Qin family no longer engages in this kind of marriage, so don't mention it again."

Hearing this, Yang on the other end hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, and his eyes flickered: "Then this marriage will not work out, the dowry is 5000 taels, why don't you give it to me, and I'll pick a good one for Saburo later!"

"Puchi!" Cui Wei looked at Yang Shi and couldn't help laughing, her face full of mockery.This dowry was originally given by her for Cui Jingping. If the marriage is successful, it will naturally be given to Cui Jingping, but if the marriage fails, it's okay to give it to Cui Jingping, but why give it to Yang Shi?What's more, she chose a good one for Cui Jingping, and Mrs. Yang got wives for both sons herself, but she didn't see which one was good, and now she wants the 5000 taels of silver. I don't know where she came from to say this. ! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
