The eldest daughter, she is proud and sassy

Chapter 257 Envy
When mentioning fourth uncle Cui Yonglin, Cui Erniang showed sympathy on her face.

"Ten years ago when I was young, few people in the mansion knew what happened at that time.

"However, I, Aye and Aniang, knew it, but when I asked them, they scolded me and refused to allow me to ask."

Speaking of this, Cui Erniang approached Cui Hengyue, and showed off: "Fortunately, I am smart, once I got drunk Xiuyun, I made a fool of myself.

"Xiu Yun said that the fourth uncle was fined to contemplate behind closed doors because he offended the Queen Mother.

"Also, every year on the day before the Mid-Autumn Festival, the queen mother will send someone to the fourth room to reprimand the fourth uncle. At this time, the grandfather will order that no one is allowed to approach the fourth room."

A light flashed in Cui Hengyue's eyes. It seemed that she made a wise decision to return home before the Mid-Autumn Festival, otherwise she would miss many secrets.

The day before Mid-Autumn Festival...

Cui Erniang couldn't help feeling emotional: "Eldest sister, do you think the queen mother is too vengeful?
"Back then, I was fined and scolded. After all, we are brothers and sisters, so we can just get angry, so why bother to imprison the fourth family until now?

"Poor thing!"

Cui Hengyue was thoughtful: "Maybe fourth uncle made an unforgivable mistake?"

"What big mistake can there be?" Cui Erniang showed disdain: "Even if there is any unforgivable mistake, the fourth aunt had a miscarriage and ended up in a lingering sick bed, and the fourth uncle would not be free, this punishment is already severe enough.

"It's too cruel to be imprisoned for ten years without letting anyone out, and to reprimand him once a year."

Cui Hengyue grasped the key point in her words: "You mean that the empress dowager did the fourth aunt's miscarriage?"

"I didn't say that." Cui Erniang hurriedly looked around.

The room was very quiet, knowing that the sisters were going to whisper, Sanghua took Shuifu and others to drink tea in the yard.

Cui Erniang approached Cui Hengyue again, and whispered: "I also heard from Xiuyun that Yuan Niang...

"No, the daughter of the fourth uncle and the fourth aunt died of illness not long after she was born, and the fourth aunt was too sad to be sick.

"It took two years for my fourth aunt to cheer up, recuperate her body, and prepare to have another child for my fourth uncle.

"God pays off. Later, the fourth aunt was pregnant. Dr. Cao took the pulse and said it was a son. The fourth uncle and fourth aunt were very happy.

"But once the Queen Mother and His Majesty came to the Yasukuni Mansion, the Fourth Aunt somehow offended the Queen Mother.

"The queen mother was very angry and ordered to beat the fourth aunt. Later... the fourth aunt had a miscarriage."

Xiaochan was talking to the outside world, but no one knew what the real situation was except for a few people.

But since then, everyone knows that Sifang has angered the Queen Mother.

Cui Hengyue lowered her head and thought for a while: "After this incident, what is the attitude of grandfather and grandmother towards fourth uncle?"

"Eh..." Erniang Cui thought about her words: "Before this, I heard that although my grandfather treats my fourth uncle worse than my three sons, it's not bad.

"After this incident, grandfather didn't look good towards fourth uncle, and he didn't usually see fourth uncle.

"Grandmother has always been bad to fourth uncle. After this incident, grandma seems to hate fourth uncle."

Hate Cui Yonglin?

Cui Hengyue thought about it again, isn't it normal for the aunt to hate the concubine?

However, as soon as this idea came up, she thought of something wrong.

"No, when I returned home, I told my grandfather and grandmother that I was born one day earlier than my fourth uncle's daughter, and that I should be Yuan Niang. But my grandfather and grandmother disagreed and insisted that my fourth uncle's daughter be this Yuan Niang. "

Cui Erniang was full of surprise: "So this is how you, Yuanniang, came here."

"Listen to the main point." Cui Hengyue continued: "If grandma hates fourth uncle so much, why does she insist on letting fourth uncle's daughter be this Yuan Niang?"

something is wrong.

Cui Erniang rested her chin on her hand and thought for a while, "Actually."

The next words stopped abruptly.

Cui Hengyue looked at her suspiciously: "Actually what?"

"Ah..." Cui Erniang was a little nervous: "I told you, you mustn't be angry."

"Don't be angry." Cui Hengyue agreed wholeheartedly.

As the eldest sister, she still has the heart she should have.

So Erniang Cui cleared her throat and said slowly: "Actually, grandma likes third aunt very much, or your mother.

"You made a condition with her as soon as you returned home, and she naturally refused to agree. It actually has nothing to do with whether she hates fourth uncle or not.

"Look, I promised you later, and now that Fourth Uncle's daughter doesn't even have a ranking, the people in the house will soon forget her.

"This is probably what my grandmother expected."

Cui Hengyue was stunned.

This seems to make sense.

"Ah, grandma, I didn't mean to speak ill of you, so don't be angry."

Cui Erniang said a lot, and suddenly realized that she was speaking ill of her grandmother, she felt ashamed, facing the direction of Fuhaiyuan, clasped her hands together:
"Sin, sin."

Cui Hengyue: "."

This little girl doesn't seem to believe in Buddhism.

After silently watching Cui Erniang's confession alone, Cui Hengyue continued to ask: "Does Fourth Uncle have no children now?"

Hearing this question, Erniang Cui let go of her hands, and leaned closer to Cui Hengyue, her eyes sparkling: "That's right, Fourth Uncle doesn't have a single child except for the daughter who died young.

"Speaking of this, I envy Fourth Aunt.

"Although the fourth uncle is a concubine, he is still the prince of the Duke of Jingguo's mansion, and his grandfather held him in high esteem back then, but after he married the fourth aunt, he never cared about other women.

"There is no concubine, no housewife, and the fourth house only has two masters, the fourth uncle and the fourth aunt.

"Back then, my grandmother said she wanted to take a concubine for my fourth uncle, and my fourth aunt agreed, but my fourth uncle refused, and even forced me to die, saying that I only wanted to live with my fourth aunt in this life and grow old together.

"Later, the fourth uncle's daughter died early, and the fourth aunt couldn't afford it. The doctor said that the fourth aunt was too sad and hurt her body, and she might not be able to conceive. Even so, the fourth uncle did not take a concubine.

"Furthermore, ten years ago, my fourth aunt had a miscarriage, which completely hurt her body. All the imperial physicians in the palace said that my fourth aunt would never be able to conceive again. My fourth uncle still never left my fourth aunt, and was even willing to be imprisoned in the mansion. Never go out for the rest of my life."

The more Cui Erniang spoke, the more excited she became, she couldn't help but grabbed Cui Hengyue's arm, and said enviously: "Sister, if a man treats me like this, I will be willing to die."

"What nonsense?" Cui Hengyue reached out and tapped her forehead forcefully, just like the gesture Mrs. Cui often made to her.

Cui Erniang was in a trance for a moment, but when she heard what Cui Hengyue said behind her, she came back to her senses.

Cui Hengyue said: "If there is a man who treats you wholeheartedly and only wants to be with you for the rest of his life, then you shouldn't die.

"You have to work hard to live and grow old with the one you love."

One pair for life people?

Cui Erniang suddenly blushed, stretched out her hand to pat Cui Hengyue, and said coquettishly, "Eldest sister, you are too bad, how could you tell me such a thing?
"It's so embarrassing—"

Cui Hengyue: "."

Didn't she mention it first?
Cui Hengyue was speechless, and after Cui Erniang's shyness passed, she continued to inquire about Sifang.
