Chapter 54 Rejection
Ning Zhongyuan said: "Originally I planned to ask someone to marry an official's daughter for Yu'er, but the current situation made me change my mind."

Ning Zhongjing wondered: "Why? My Ning family is in trouble now. If Yu'er can marry the daughter of a high-ranking official, it will be of great benefit to the current situation of my Ning family!"

Ning Yu knew that apart from his family, this third uncle had nothing else in his eyes.Such a person is naturally a good thing for the family, but for the individual, sometimes it is unavoidable to feel repelled.

Ning Zhongyuan sighed, and said: "My Ning family is now on the cusp of the storm, and I'm afraid it would be a little inappropriate to ask for the daughter of a high-ranking official. I have heard that the Cui family has a daughter, who can be called a virtuous and virtuous woman, and Cui Wancai is a scholar. Lin Zhong has a great reputation, and if our Ning family can match up, it will be a great thing."

As soon as he heard that his father had really set his mind on the Cui family's father and daughter, Ning Yu couldn't help but smile wryly. He knew that his future was uncertain, and he really didn't want to implicate the Cui family's father and daughter.

"Father, I think this matter still needs to be considered. The future of my Ning family is unpredictable. If the teacher's family is involved, I really have no face to face the teacher."

Ning Zhongyuan smiled, "It's too early to say that the future of the Ning family is unpredictable. Man Pi still can't cover the sky with one hand in Huguang. Don't worry, if you can't figure it out, you can ask your teacher."

Ning Yu knew that his father was not that simple, and he might have set up a dark hand earlier, but he was always worried, so he decided to find Cui Wancai to find out what happened.

The next day, Ning Yu went to Hanyang with his guards, and when he arrived at Cui's house, he found that Cui Wancai was doing an activity in the yard that was beneficial to his body and mind - drying books.

Cui Wancai placed four wooden boards in the yard. Each board was two feet wide and one foot five or six feet long. They were placed on long high stools, and scrolls of ancient books were placed on them, which looked very spectacular.

Seeing Ning Yu coming, Cui Wancai smiled and said, "Didn't you just come here a few days ago, why are you here again?"

Cui Wancai is the kind of straightforward person who doesn't like to beat around the bush, so he always has something to say.

Ning Yu said helplessly: "I came here for the Ning family before, but now I come here for myself. Unexpectedly, the teacher is very enthusiastic about posting books today. It is not the right time for the students to come."

Cui Wancai laughed loudly, "Although there has been talk about posting books since the Han and Tang Dynasties, being a teacher is not arty. After all, Zhu Yizun has already done that kind of thing first. Wouldn't it be vulgar for me to do it again? What's more, Zhu Yizun is the chosen one. On the sixth day of June, it's a whole month early to become a teacher."

Ning Yu knew that Zhu Yizun had participated in the compilation of "History of the Ming Dynasty", and he was also called the King of South Zhu and North with Wang Shizhen, and he could be called a generation of poets.

When Zhu Yizun became famous, he exposed his belly and chest to the sun on the sixth day of June, which is called drying books. Then he was seen by Kangxi, who was traveling in a small suit, and was appointed as a reviewer of the Imperial Academy, responsible for writing and compiling the history of Ming Dynasty.

However, Ning Yu knew that his teacher didn't pay much attention to this generation of Ci, so he smiled and said: "This person is just a generation of rotten Confucianism, how can he be compared with a teacher who can do practical things? He is a student Meng Lang. "

It's not that Cui Wancai doesn't like oil and salt, and sometimes he feels quite satisfied when he hears the students' flattery, so when he heard Ning Yu describe him in this way, he nodded in satisfaction, and then ordered everyone to move all the books in. He also specially told a few rough-handed guards to handle it carefully.

After busy work, Ning Yu served tea to Cui Wancai, and said in a low voice: "The student is here today, and I really have a difficult matter to ask the teacher to explain."

Cui Wancai thought for a while, then said: "You have always had many difficulties, but I can help you very little, so just tell me."

Ning Yu hesitated for a moment, and said softly: "My father wants the Ning family and the Cui family to marry." After all, he was a little embarrassed, so he said this in a more tactful manner, after all, it was really embarrassing for Ning Yu's identity.

Cui Wancai was not in a hurry or annoyed, and stared at Ning Yu with a smile, without saying a word, and looked at Ning Yu with trepidation.

"That's not the intention of the students coming here. Now that the future of my Ning family is uncertain, I shouldn't have involved the teacher, let alone my little junior sister. It is definitely not a gentleman to do so." Ning Yu said heartily. out.

"Oh, what about yourself? Want to but don't want to?"

These words made Ning Yu's fair face turn red. Even though he has been a human being in two lifetimes, Ning Yu has never been very enlightened in this regard. Now being asked such a question, he is a little at a loss.

"Students. Students naturally want to."

Cui Wancai laughed and said, "Your teacher's mother left early and left behind such a daughter. It's not easy for a teacher to raise such a daughter, so she spoiled Si'er a little, and became more angry. As a teacher, I thought about it. If Si'er was a man, I'm afraid it's not impossible for him to worship the court and seal the border."

Ning Yu knows that Cui Wancai is not exaggerating. Cui Si has been educated by Cui Wancai since she was a child, and she is also very smart, so she can be said to be able to get poems from poems and poems from poems. Go a lot stronger.

"If you are interested, you can ask Si'er yourself. If she is willing, my father will naturally not stop me." Cui Wancai said lightly.

Ning Yu was a little dumbfounded. This teacher seemed to be a little too enlightened. In this age of matchmaker words from parents, let the daughter make up her own mind. If she said it, no one would believe it.

After Cui Wancai finished speaking, he smiled slightly and walked out of the room, leaving Ning Yu stunned.

Ning Yu looked at Cui Wancai's back, and felt a little nervous in his heart. If Cui Si waited to molest him, should he call or not?This is really a difficult problem.

While Ning Yu was thinking about it, Cui Si slowly came out from the inner hall, wearing a light yellow skirt, her face was pale and reddish, dotted with bright eyes, and a faint smile was drawn on the corner of her mouth.

"Brother, I haven't seen you for a long time, Shicai Si'er has been eavesdropping, please don't blame me." Cui Si saluted.

Ning Yu smiled wryly, and said softly: "I think my junior sister has heard what you just said."

Cui Si said calmly: "Senior brother favors me, Si'er is naturally happy, but Si'er feels that if senior brother is sincere, Si'er will naturally be very grateful, but Si'er is not as virtuous as senior brother thinks, I'm afraid I will disappoint senior brother."

"If it's just for the sake of the family, Si'er is not willing to make sacrifices."

After these words, Ning Yu stopped thinking about him in a polite and restrained manner.

"Junior Sister's meaning, I already understand, this time I will reject my father when I go back."

After Ning Yu finished speaking, he saluted and left without showing any complaints. This was actually more in line with his original idea, although he was a little disappointed in his heart.

Seeing Ning Yu acting like this, Cui Si couldn't help but feel a little shaken in her heart. She vaguely felt that there might be a problem with her judgment.
