The eldest daughter, she is proud and sassy

Chapter 240 Injury
Cui Wuye, Cui Yongjiang, was a concubine, and married a wife who was the daughter of a minor official from out of town, so he had no power or influence.

Mrs. Cui Wu has a son and a daughter under her knees. Her son Cui Silang is 15 years old this year and studies in a famous academy in the capital.

Daughter Cui Wuniang is 13 years old this year, and she can read and write in Fuzhong School.

Cui Yongjiang also has a concubine——Luo Shi. Luo Shi has a son, Cui Shilang, who is ten years old this year and studies in Fuzhong School.

After coming out of Fuhai Courtyard, Mrs. Cui Wu rushed forward angrily. As soon as she returned to the room, she picked up the teacup on the table and was about to throw it out.

At this moment, Fifth Master Cui Yongjiang rushed over from behind, snatched the teacup from Mrs. Cui Wu's hand, and put it back on the table.

"Who messed with you again?"

Mrs. Cui Wu saw that it was him, swallowed the curse words, and sat on the chair: "This time, the old lady does not allow people from our fifth room to participate in the palace banquet."

"No."

Cui Wuniang interrupted her mother and saluted Cui Yongjiang: "Grandmother said that children aged 13 and above in the mansion can go to the palace banquet.

"My fourth brother and I can go, it's not that everyone from the fifth house cannot participate."

Cui Yongjiang's expression darkened.

Among the children aged 13 and above in the mansion, there are seven young gentlemen and five young ladies. Except for Qilang who is a concubine, the other children are all descendants.

"The old lady didn't tell you to go?" Cui Yongjiang looked at his wife.

Mrs. Cui Wu said angrily: "How could she take me there? Over the years, which banquet has she taken me to?

"If she can take Wu Niang there, I'm already satisfied."

Cui Yongjiang's face was ugly, so it seems that his father would not bring him into the palace.

He is also a descendant of the Cui family, but because he is a concubine, he is suppressed everywhere, he is not reconciled.

"Hmph, if I had been born two hours earlier, how could I have fallen into this situation?" Cui Yongjiang hammered the table dissatisfied.

Mrs. Cui Wu scoffed, "Even if you were born two years earlier, you are still a bastard."

"."

Cui Yongjiang's face darkened, he yelled "what do you know" at his wife, and walked away.

When his back disappeared from the door, Mrs. Cui Wu scolded: "Hmph, I only know how to pretend to be sick to escape, and I can always learn from others and coax the Duke.

"Grandpa is happy, are you afraid that you won't be able to enter the palace?"

Cui Wuniang murmured in a low voice: "It's useless to coax, the fourth uncle will do it."

"What are you mumbling about?" Mrs. Cui Wu looked over and shouted.

Cui Wuniang hurriedly said: "No, I didn't say anything."

Cui Quan, Duke of Jingguo, is the patriarch of the Cui clan, and his eldest son, Cui Yongzong, is the eldest son.

Cui Yongzong had a wife and a concubine. His wife Xie Sulan came from a famous family and had two sons and a daughter.

The two sons, Cui Dalang and Cui Sanlang, are married and have official positions, so they are often away from the mansion.

Daughter Cui Erniang is 14 years old this year and has not yet engaged.

Concubine Sun has a son, Cui Qilang, who is 13 years old this year and studies in Fuzhong School.

After Mrs. Cui led the children back to the big room, they had breakfast together, and then ordered Xiu Niang to measure Cui Hengyue.

Cui Hengyue observed the furnishings in the inner room calmly, listening to the movement outside.

"Since the clothes for the palace banquet are ready, I will send them to Qilang for a try, and while there is still time, I will quickly change the inappropriate parts."

"Yuan Niang, please raise your hands."

Xiu Niang's voice pulled Cui Hengyue back, she quickly raised her hands, but she was thinking about what kind of person is Mrs. Cui?

When we met for the first time, Mrs. Cui helped her escape from being hunted down, and even bandaged her wound with kindness.

Later, she overheard that Mrs. Cui was going to kill her, and escaped from the inn.

Later, I met two people at Yunxuan Temple, but neither was very pleasant.

But on the first day she returned to the mansion, Mrs. Cui sent Guo Jin to drive her out of the mansion. Mrs. Cui helped her out and took her to Fuhai Courtyard.

From what I have seen and heard today, Mrs. Cui is tolerant and treats concubines and concubines kindly, not like a cruel person.

Cui Hengyue had a little doubt: Is Mrs. Cui a good person?

"Yuanniang, you can go out." Xiuniang said to Cui Hengyue after measuring the size.

Cui Hengyue then left the inner room.

Cui Erniang rushed over: "Eldest sister, let's go for a stroll in the yard."

"stop."

Mrs. Cui stopped her daughter: "Er Niang, it's time for you to go to school."

Then he said to Cui Hengyue: "Ah Heng, you just came back, you should rest for a few days first, after the Mid-Autumn Festival, you can go to school again."

Cui Hengyue didn't care, and gave a soft "hmm".

"Then I'll take elder sister out." Cui Erniang pulled Cui Hengyue and ran outside.

Seeing her lack of ladylike manners, Mrs. Cui shouted: "Slow down, pay attention to your manners."

However, the two have disappeared without a trace.

Mrs. Cui sighed helplessly, then looked at Xiu Niang: "Have you measured Yuan Niang's measurements?"

"Don't worry, Madam, everything has been measured." Xiu Niang replied respectfully.

This is the embroiderer Mrs. Cui brought from Xie's family when she first married into Duke Jing's mansion. Apart from this one, there are five other embroiderers.

Mrs. Cui pointed to the fabric on the table: "According to Yuanniang's size, use these pieces of fabric to make her a skirt, shirt, shoes and socks, and make it according to the most fashionable style in the capital.

"Don't be too fancy, keep it simple and elegant."

Xiu Niang was very surprised: "Ma'am, what do you mean we will make Yuan Niang's clothes instead of going to Xianyi Pavilion to buy ready-made clothes?"

"Yes." Mrs. Cui nodded: "The embroiderers of Xianyi Pavilion are not as good as you, so I can trust you to do it."

"But."

Xiu Niang showed embarrassment: "The Mid-Autumn Festival will be in three days. If it is so hasty, I'm afraid it will be too late."

"Then rush to work day and night, you guys take turns to do it, put other things aside first, and make Yuanniang's clothes, shoes and socks first, so as not to delay her entering the palace."

Seeing that Mrs. Cui insisted, Xiu Niang had no choice but to accept the errand.

Mrs. Cui First Young Master and Mrs. Cui Third Young Master secretly exchanged glances: It seems that mother cares about Yuan Niang very much.

At this time, Cui Hengyue was being dragged around by Cui Erniang, she was a little helpless: "Erniang, if you don't go to school, you will be late."

Cui Erniang was very interested, so she told Sanghua: "Go to the school and tell your master that I am not feeling well, so I will go later."

Cui Hengyue: "."

Running faster than a rabbit, is this called physical discomfort?
Cui Hengyue didn't bother to talk about her, and simply watched the surrounding scenery.

Suddenly, a faint voice came from behind: "What is there?"

This is Mrs. Wen's voice.

Cui Hengyue turned her head and saw Mrs. Wen pointing to a yard to the north and asking Bai Shao.

"That's the Duke's study."

Bai Shao introduced to Mrs. Wen: "But this is the study of the Duke in the backyard, and the Duke also has a study in the front yard.

"Here, that's the yard."

Bai Shao pointed in the direction of the front yard.

Mrs. Wen said "oh", lost interest, and asked about the flowers in the garden.

Cui Hengyue withdrew her gaze and asked casually, "Er Niang, does Auntie go to Yunxuan Temple every year?"

"Well, I go there once a year, usually before the Dragon Boat Festival."

Cui Erniang stopped under a tree, raised her head and pointed to a certain place on the tree: "Sister, there is a bird's nest there, have you seen it?"

Cui Hengyue stopped and looked up, and there was indeed a bird's nest in the branch of the tree.

"Saw."

"Eldest sister, you are good at work, can you help me take down that bird's nest?"

Cui Hengyue frowned: "What do you want a bird's nest for?"

Cui Erniang looked away from the bird's nest and looked at Cui Hengyue: "I lost to Qilang in the last endorsement, and I promised to give him a nest of birds.

"I looked at it for several days. There are four or five small birds in this bird's nest, which is just right, but this bird's nest is too high, and I can't get it."

Shui Rong suddenly said: "Why didn't Erniang call the guards in the mansion to help you get it?"

Cui Erniang was slightly displeased: "This is the backyard, the guards cannot come in."

"Then why don't you ask the guards to find a bird's nest and give it to Qilang?" Shui Rong asked again.

Cui Erniang's face darkened: "What do you mean? Do you think I want to hurt elder sister?"
