Chapter 8
Mrs. Cui's family is anxious to save her son, so she looks down on the humble Li family, but as long as Li's can really save Saburo, her attitude towards Li will not be bad in the future.
Ye Qingluan paid more attention to Xiao Wang's reaction.
Since Sanlang of the Cui family is the eldest son, the bride price is naturally ten times higher than what the Cui family gave Xiao Wang back then.
No matter how little Mrs. Wang looks down on Mrs. Li, once she enters the house, she will be a legitimate son-in-law, and her status will be higher than hers.
What's more, after Mrs. Li entered the door, she was Mrs. Cui's biological daughter-in-law.At that time, whether Mrs. Cui will still have a seat for her little Wang family is another matter.
Xiao Wang's full anger, of course he didn't dare to express it at Mrs. Cui.She raised her eyes and gave Ye Qingluan a hard look.
Ye Qingluan was naturally not surprised, so he simply accepted it with a smile.
.
Ye Qingluan showed the five pictures to Mrs. Cui.
The Cui family was in a hurry to help Sanlang Chongxi of the Cui family, so they didn't have to pick and choose.Mrs. Cui only said that since the five young ladies are all about the same age and appearance, it's up to the Li family to decide which daughter they want.
In other words, either will do.
Seeing that the time had come, Ye Qingluan bowed to Mrs. Cui, "I would like to see Saburo."
"Oh?" Mrs. Cui hesitated.
The status of "three aunts and six wives" has always been the lowest; besides, at this time, Cui Jiasanlang's life is at stake, and he is most afraid of being bumped.
Ye Qingluan understood it all, so she lowered her head and said, "At any rate, my wife has already seen the five young ladies of the Li family, but the Li family does not know what Sanlang looks like. This bowl of water for slaves must be level."
The little Wang sneered, "Her Li family only has a foreigner, but it's still just a poor family. You want to level their family with ours? Xi Niangzi, what are you talking about?"
Ye Qingluan only looked up at Mrs. Cui.
"Madam please decide."
Mrs. Cui glanced at Mrs. Wang, and said slowly, "After all, my son is ill, so it is not appropriate to directly bump into him..."
Ye Qingluan immediately said, "It's done through the curtain! You only need Madam to allow Nuyingchuochuo to take a look at Sanlang!"
.
Quiet room, delicate fragrance.
Layers of curtains separate the indoors from the outdoors.
Ye Qingluan was brought to the couch and stood outside the last flower cover that fell to the ground.
This layer of curtain is made of crocodile silk, the light and shadow are translucent, and the outline of Cui Qian can be seen roughly.
Ye Qingluan signaled the servants of the Li family to retreat temporarily.
Only she and Cui Qian are left in this room.
Ye Qingluan didn't really stare at him, instead she turned her back and sat down leaning against the floor-to-ceiling flower cover.
She rested her chin, as if staring at the shelves full of scrolls in a daze, "...I heard that the emperor wants to betroth the princess of Fuyang County to you, but you are desperately unwilling."
"I know, it's because you despise royal martial arts backgrounds and humble family backgrounds. Marrying a royal lord would be an insult to your family's lintel."
"But, once the emperor and the courtiers, no matter how humble they are, they are now the emperor's royal family. If you disobey the order and disrespect, this is the crime of beheading, isn't it?"
"Let me remember, wasn't the ancestor of Qinghe Xiaofang, the Qinghe Cui family, the princess of the Northern Wei Dynasty that he married? To be honest, that princess's father was just a county king, so that princess's rank was just that of a county lord... Princess Fuyang is a real princess, I said Cui Lang, why don't you do it?"
"Besides, the princess of Yanyang has sincere feelings for you. Because you refused to marry, you already want to wear a female crown, saying that no one else is allowed in this life. Cui Lang, do you really not regret missing such a good marriage?"
.
She seemed to be talking to Cui Qian, but it was more like talking to herself.
As for whether Cui Qian could hear, she didn't particularly care.
"...But, I have to say, your illness is really good, and the timing is just right! You are obviously disobedient and disrespectful, the emperor can condemn you, but you are sick, and you are still sick It's so serious that the emperor can't even punish you."
She looked back slowly when she said this.
"But Cui Lang, I've got my ugly words right to the end. I've chosen a wife for you. If you don't get up again, the marriage will be settled."
"Also, since this lady Chongxi can cure your illness and save your life... even if she comes from a poor family, you should not treat her slowly in the future. Otherwise, I will have trouble with you, Cui Lang."
As she spoke, she got up and raised her arms, "Cui Lang, I'll count one, two, three. If you don't get up, I'll go out to propose marriage. If you go back on your word, it's too late."
After Ye Qingluan finished speaking, she immediately said, "One, two, three!"
In the couch tent, Cui Qian was in a deep sleep.
Ye Qingluan also sighed lightly.
It seems that the illness of Cui Jiasaburo is really not just a feign.
So now the key lies with the Li family again.
.
Ye Qingluan pondered for a day, but went to Li's house again the next day.
This time, she wanted to meet five young ladies alone.
Intentionally or not, she was the last to see the girl on the far right.
Coincidentally, this little lady happened to be the youngest of the five, she was Li Wuniang.
When Li Wuniang entered the room, Ye Qingluan looked up to the light, more and more seeing the light in her eyes.
The light is hard, but it really shines.
Ye Qingluan laughed, grabbed the fan and got up to say hello, "Sit down, Wu Niang."
Wu Niang glanced at her, "None of my four elder sisters are married yet, Mrs. Xi, if you don't talk more with my four elder sisters, what's the use of meeting me?"
Ye Qingluan laughed, "Wu Niang doesn't want to leave the pavilion?"
Wu Niang sat down and turned away, as if she didn't want to look Ye Qingluan in the eye, "Since Miss Xi has seen it, why don't you let me go?"
Ye Qingluan also sat down, purposely next to Wu Niang.
"...Then I don't understand. Who is Wu Niang reluctant to let go of?"
.
Li Wuniang was shocked immediately, "What do you mean?"
Ye Qingluan shrugged lightly, "...It is said that Wu Niang is born for the eldest lady. But I see, that's not the case."
She had inquired with Li Zheng beforehand that the other four young ladies were all concubines, and their biological mothers had concubines, concubines, and adoring women.
On the contrary, this fifth lady is called the eldest lady.
But my own mother, how could she be willing to let her daughter go to celebrate the wedding and send it that night?
Li Wuniang clenched her silver teeth and turned her head away.
Ye Qingluan guessed right—Wu Niang was born of a female Daoist.
It is not easy to spread this word, so Wu Niang is named under the name of the eldest lady of the Li family, so she is nominally the daughter of the Li family.
It's just that the word "di daughter" is only for outsiders to see. How can the eldest lady in the Li family be willing to love her at all?Everyone in the Li family treated her respectfully outside, but once they entered the house, they only greeted her with cynicism and sarcasm.
Such a home, what else is she reluctant to part with?
Wu Niang sneered, "It's just that there is nothing in this family that I can't let go of, so is there anything in the Cui family that attracts me?"
Ye Qingluan lowered her eyes faintly, "Naturally, there are: prosperity and wealth, and a natural marriage."
Wu Niang sneered again, "You believe it yourself? You talk too much, and you marry yourself!"
