Gong Fujiao Daughter-in-law

Chapter 47 Mother
Xie Zhiyun was very quick in handling things, and in the early morning of the next day, she was asked by Madam Zhao early, and she immediately went to the door of Ronghua Hall.

Cui Ji's health has improved a lot, she no longer coughs all day long, and doesn't need to stay in bed all day long. When Xie Zhiyun arrived, she was sitting in the sunny courtyard working as a maid.

The Cui family is also a century-old clan, but it is not as famous as the Xie family. The most important thing for Xie's daughters is poetry, calligraphy and painting.

And what Cui's women are best at is how to be a good wife.

Although Cui Ji is an offshoot of the Cui family, she doesn't show her beauty at home, but she is really virtuous and considerate, she is beautiful and intelligent, especially her first-hand female workers are superb and skilled.

Xie Zhijun sat beside Cui Ji, smiling and looking at the pattern embroidered in her hand.

It was a picture of butterflies playing with begonias.

Xie Zhiyun sincerely sighed: "Mother's embroidery is really superb."

Cui Ji took the needle away, smiled and shook his head: "I'm old, it's useless, this pair of embroidery has not been finished after two months, if you delay for a while, Shu'er will not be able to wear it."

"My mother made this for my eldest sister?" Xie Zhiyun thought.

Cui Ji said: "Yeah, I think it's going to be spring soon, so I'll make her a new pleated skirt and choose brighter colors so that she looks good on it."

At this point, Cui Ji paused and explained something very carefully.

"You all have your own preferences, I don't want to interfere too much, An'an is still a little girl, and she only does it for Shu'er when she needs to dress up."

Xie Zhiyun couldn't help laughing.

"Mother, I understand, you don't have to be so cautious," Xie Zhiyun changed the subject, "Thanks to my mother taking care of me, otherwise, I might not even come out of the room."

Cui Ji put down the embroidered stretcher in his hand, and looked at Xie Zhiyun with some doubts.

Only then did Xie Zhiyun sit upright, lowered his eyes to Cui Ji and said, "Mother, sister looked for me yesterday."

She didn't hide anything, she repeated what Wei Ningshu said yesterday, and finally said: "My eldest sister is from my own family, since I promised her, I will do what I say."

After finishing speaking, Xie Zhijun raised his head and looked at Cui Ji eagerly.

But Cui Ji's complexion sank.

It was clearly a sunny day in early spring, but Cui Ji's eyes seemed to be snowed again.

The coldness that never goes away is shocking.

Xie Zhijun slowly withdrew the smile on her face, she sat quietly with her eyes fixed on her face, and said nothing.

After a long time, Cui Ji sighed.

"Since you told me, you probably already know about Shu'er's past from Boqian," Cui Ji said, "Can you tell me what you think?"

Xie Zhijun didn't want to say that she sympathized with Wei Ningshu, because Wei Ningshu didn't seem to need others' sympathy, she shrank in her own world and lived a peaceful life.

Xie Zhiyun considered his words for a while before saying: "Mother, I told the young man yesterday that he is the eldest brother and I am the eldest sister-in-law. If the eldest sister doesn't want to marry, she should stay at home."

"We will raise her in the future."

Xie Zhiyun said this sonorously and forcefully, the sun shone in her bright eyes, leaving brilliant golden flowers behind.

She is always calm, elegant and dignified, and she can see the confidence of a century-old family from her.

No matter what happened, she seldom panicked, no matter how frightened she was in her heart, she could maintain the honor of Xie's first daughter on the face.

This is the appearance that can only be achieved after more than ten years of rigorous teaching.

Cui Ji sighed in his heart, but he still held her hand and said in a low voice, "Good boy, you have a heart."

Xie Zhijun has never been afraid of taking responsibility, and can handle anything entrusted to her.

"What does mother mean?"

Cui Ji took a deep breath and let it out slowly.

"I don't insist on her getting married, and the Duke doesn't think she must marry, but she is too lonely."

Cui Jidao: "I'm not her biological mother, but I raised her since childhood. I raised her longer than An An. In my heart, you are all my children."

Cui Ji has the unique gentleness and love of Cui's women.

"Youzhi is a good boy. Back then, someone made Shu'er open up. We were all very happy. It's a pity that fate made people separate, and Shu'er lost the only chance to get out of the shadow of the past."

"But as parents, they always want to give their children another hand, and don't want them to continue to be depressed."

"As long as Wei Shi is around, he will naturally be able to raise Shu'er, but living and surviving are two different things."

When Cui Ji said this, he finally couldn't continue.

Xie Zhiyun immediately understood Cui Ji's meaning, she and the Duke wanted Wei Ningshu to live happily like an ordinary little lady.

I don't want to see her huddled in a corner alone, remembering her old friend alone, and surviving alone.

Xie Zhiyun thought for a while, and said: "But mother, no matter how you live, the eldest sister must be willing."

"There will be a long time to come, and there may be various things and people that will change my sister's mind. Why not let nature take its course and take it one step at a time."

"Leaving aside the past, my eldest sister is actually afraid of finding someone else."

It is.

Don't talk about the marriage that was broken in the middle way, just talk about Wei Ningshu's character, it doesn't look like she can get married.

Seeing Cui Ji's expression loosen, Xie Zhiyun laughed.

"Mother, if I really meet someone my eldest sister can accept in the future, the big deal is just to recruit someone else. As long as my eldest sister is still at home, she has nothing to be afraid of."

Cui Ji was taken aback for a moment, she rarely showed a look of surprise, and remained silent for a long time.

Xie Zhiyun continued: "If my mother feels that the eldest sister is lonely, I will ask her later. It is also okay to raise a raccoon slave, it will make people happy anyway."

Cui Ji had never thought about these things before.

At this time, she finally realized that Xie Zhiyun seemed to be a well-behaved daughter of a family, but deep down in her heart, she also had a side that did not stick to etiquette.

Being comfortable and happy is the most important thing.

What else is there to care about?

Cui Ji sighed, but soon, a smile appeared on her face again.

"You're right, it's me and the Duke who are at the bottom of the horns," Cui Ji thought for a while, and said, "Shu'er likes raccoon slaves. When she was young, she always liked to feed the raccoon slaves on the corner of the street, but she was very sensible. She never Not to mention wanting to raise one."

Cui Ji was a little depressed again.

"I didn't make a good mother."

Xie Zhijun found that she always likes to introspect. She has tried her best to do her best, but she always blames herself for her inability to do so.

"Why does mother say that?" Xie Zhiyun took her arm, acting like a spoiled girl to her mother, "My mother passed away when I was young, and the same is true for my young father-in-law. Speaking of which, I have never experienced mother's love, but In you, we don't feel unfamiliar."

"You are our good mother."
