Liangyue Farm Gate

Chapter 715 The Big Picture
Aunt Cui ran away halfway, so she had to go back to Guan's house.Chunyu guessed right, Guan Wen didn't hide anything, nodded and told Guanshi Cao to call for someone.

Cao Guan was unequivocal, and quickly invited Aunt Cui over.

Cui stood in the hall with her back straight, but she didn't look at Chunyu and the others, but lowered her eyes with a humble look.

The other two should be people who came to meet Aunt Cui, and one of them spoke first: "Mr. Cui, come with us, you are no longer fit to stay here."

Aunt Cui just stood there stubbornly, neither nodding nor shaking her head, but she didn't respond at all.

Chunyu stepped forward and said: "Cui Shi, you should know where we are going to send you, why stay here stubbornly? You should clearly distinguish which is more important."

Aunt Cui still didn't speak, she lowered her head like a servant who obeyed orders, but the stubbornness she showed still made people feel powerless.

Guan Wen stood aside like an outsider, neither expressing opinions nor persuading.

Chunyu sighed, sat back in his seat, and said, "Cui Shi, time is limited, and we don't have that much time to spend with you. Tomorrow I must return to Beijing, and I will give you another day. I will pick you up tomorrow." .You don't want to keep silent anymore."

Aunt Cui moved now, she raised her head and said straightforwardly: "My lord, you don't need to worry too much, I won't go to any capital city with you. My roots are here, and I will only stay here for the rest of my life. Do not go anywhere else."

Chunyu suddenly felt a headache: "Why are you so stubborn! Don't you know which is more important?"

"For me, my son Muchun is the most important thing." Aunt Cui said decisively, and then suddenly knelt down with a "plop": "Please don't get entangled in such matters, my lord, I will stay with you." Close the house and not go anywhere! If my lord takes me away forcibly, I will crawl back even if I try my best!"

"you!"

Chunyu was very annoyed at her stubborn attitude, his brows were tightly furrowed, and his face was also filled with anger.

The man who was the first to speak to Aunt Cui coughed and said, "Master Cui, Master Chunyu is also doing it for your own good. Your name is not justified and you stay here, and you only have the status of an aunt, which is extremely embarrassing. But if you go back, Not to mention anything else, there will always be a big change in your identity alone. It is useless for you to stay here, so go back to Beijing with us."

Aunt Cui just shook her head, did not accept their suggestion, and even said harshly: "You can let me go, unless I die. When I am alive, I can always make my own decisions whether to go or stay."

Chunyu and those two men had nothing to do with her, Chunyu could only say to Guan Wen: "You persuade her! Tell her to leave us obediently!"

Guan Wen said helplessly: "My lord, she has already made up her mind, how can I convince her..."

Chunyu stared, another person grabbed him, sighed and said, "Sir, tell her in private?"

Guan Wen understood, cupped his hands and said: "My lord, talk to Aunt Cui slowly." Then he gave the hall to Chunyu and the others.

After Guan Wen went out, Chunyu said, "Miss Cui, your father, brother and mother have been looking for you all these years. As a daughter, how can you be so cruel that you don't even want to see them? I don't know any news about you. , but now that they know about you, they worry about it day and night, but they don't expect you to be so cruel that you don't even want to meet your relatives."

Aunt Cui said calmly: "Your Excellency knows why. With my status, it's better not to insult the Cui family. When I go back, my lord will tell Mr. Cui and Mrs. Cui that I died when I was robbed on the road a few years ago. Let them forget about it. I thought I was dead."

Chunyu sipped his lips, and the other person sighed, "Miss Cui, Mrs. Cui, Mrs. Cui misses you very much. Every year on Miss Cui's birthday, the two old people wash their faces with tears. The kindness of their parents is as great as heaven. Miss Cui wants to be that unfilial person." People? In this closed house, your status is embarrassing, orphans and widows have no one to rely on, but if you go to the capital and reunite with your relatives, Master Cui and Mrs. Cui will definitely arrange for you properly. I really don’t understand why Ms. Cui would Refuse to go to Beijing."

Aunt Cui paused, and said: "I am very satisfied with the days like this now. I am indeed an orphan and widowed mother with no one to rely on in the closed house, but although the master is indifferent to me, he has never been mean to me. Madam He has never made things difficult for me, and assigned me some errands at home, and promised to send him to study when Muchun is old... Several adults, let’s not talk about the family traditions of the Cui family. There must be no mistakes in the comments. If someone knows that I have such a younger sister, how will Mr. Cui gain a foothold in the court? Even if I go back, I will not be able to go back as Miss Cui. If this is the case, I might as well stay. Among the Guan family, at least food and clothing are not worrying about, and there is also the hope of Mu Chun."

Chunyu thought hard for a long time, and finally sighed: "I understand what you mean. Miss Cui is also taking care of the overall situation."

Aunt Cui took a sip of her spring, and smiled lightly: "I am a man who knows the current affairs and is a hero. I can still distinguish what should be done and what should not be done."

She is no longer an innocent young lady in her teens. She has already seen through these simple truths.When she was robbed and humiliated back then, she would still be filled with righteous indignation and say that she was a rich lady. When she was sold to a brothel, she naively thought that others would send her home in a proper manner after hearing her self-report. But the whip of the old bustard and the turtle made her see the truth clearly, and after it fell into the hands of Ren Yazi, she forced herself to forget who she was, and never mentioned it again.

It's just that she still kept the name Cui Xiaoru after all.This was also left to her by her parents, the only thing she could keep.

Aunt Cui looked at Chunyu and said, "My lord, no matter what, I will not leave here to go to the capital. You don't need to waste your time talking. If your lord is leaving tomorrow, I won't send you more women. Just leave it at that."

Chunyu took a deep look at her, and said to the others: "Since she insists on this, let's not force her. If she really refuses to obey, it will be difficult for you to explain when you go back."

Those people should be people sent by the Cui Mansion, and they also deeply believed it when they heard what Chunyu said.It's just that there is still some anxiety on the face that the task cannot be completed,

Chunyu paced out the door, Guan Wen was waiting in a room not far ahead, seeing them coming out, he hurried up to meet them.

"I'm bothering the Guandong family today. I have something else to do, so I won't chat with the Guandong family. We will meet later." Chunyu cupped his hands at Guan Wen, and Guan Wen clasped his fists in return, sending Chunyu out.

One day, two days, three days... Chunyu really didn't come again, Guan Wen and Li Xin didn't feel anything, but Aunt Cui was greatly relieved.

She doesn't want to leave the Guanzhai. She lives quite comfortably here. She doesn't have to worry about eating and drinking every day, and she has a lot of free time. She can stay with her son all day without worrying about making a living. She looked up.The servants of the Guan family were taught by Madam to be very polite, and no one bullied anyone, which made her life very easy.

Guan Wen and Li Xin didn't think there was anything wrong with raising Aunt Cui like this. After all, Guan Zhicheng was dead, and Guan Wen, the eldest brother, should help him take care of his women and children. She usually does embroidery and helps Li Xin manage some things, but she doesn't make trouble. She gets along well with the servants and doesn't bother Li Xin at all.

Li Xin was satisfied with her, and Guan Wen naturally had no opinion on her.

The wedding between Zhao Changsheng and Feng Zhizhi went smoothly. Feng Zhizhi, who has grown into a healthy beauty like a "black peony", married into the Zhao family in a subtle but not petty way.The relationship between Guan, Zhao and Feng's families became even closer.

Guan Wu drank too much wine at the wedding banquet, bumped into Guan Quan suddenly, and said with his tongue out, "Fourth brother! Look... Changsheng is married, you, you are still single! When will you not be a bachelor, find him Is a beautiful daughter-in-law back? Hiccup...huh?"

Guan Quan pulled Guan Wu down, and said calmly: "Second brother, you've drunk too much, don't talk, it's so embarrassing."

Guan Wu was displeased: "Second Brother is telling you serious things...Where, where is it embarrassing? Tell me! What's embarrassing!"

Guan Quan didn't want to talk to him, so Guan Wu still pulled him back and said, "What shame are you talking about... You guard the fruit forest, I have seen you talking to your Hu family several times..."

Guan Quan immediately covered Guan Wu's mouth, with blushing on his face, he said angrily, "Second brother! You are drunk, I will help you to rest!"

After speaking, he couldn't help but pull up Guan Wu who was staggering, and carried him to the back room.

What they said was overheard by the little Geng'er on the side, but he didn't quite understand, and soon found his brother Xiaokang.Xiaokang immediately shared this matter with Yang'er.The two brothers murmured together, and Yoyo saw them, and pulled them to ask them what to whisper.

Guozi has always been by Yoyo's side, compared to Qing Ya who has been by Li Xin's side and became Li Xin's confidant, Guozi is more like Yoyo's exclusive nanny.She is careful and thoughtful, Li Xin is very relieved of her.

"Guozi, brother, what did they say? Why didn't you tell me?" Yoyo complained to Guozi with a small mouth, and Guozi asked Yang'er gently: "What did the young master say? Tell the lady."

Yang'er scratched his head in embarrassment, but he could only tell Guozi about the matter.

Youyou heard it from the side, and immediately ran to find Li Xin, parroted what Yanger said, and asked her with a blink of an eye: "Mother, who is the Hu family? Do I know him?"

Li Xin and Xing'er sat together, hearing the words, they looked at each other, Xing'er pursed her lips and smiled, Li Xin nodded Yoyo's little nose and said: "You will know when you grow up."

Youyou is not happy: "Mother, you are fooling me, Youyou knows that it must be bad for fourth uncle to talk to people behind his back! Otherwise, why would fourth uncle cover second uncle's mouth if second uncle said it? Youyou wants to tell dad !"

The little girl was in good spirits, and immediately jumped up to find Guan Wen, but Xing'er hugged her: "My little ancestor, can Second Aunt tell you? Your father doesn't have time to deal with you right now."

Xing'er smiled and looked at Li Xin: "Sister-in-law, what do you think about this matter?"
