The ultimate rebirth of the abandoned woman

Chapter 262 The Old Lady's Plan ([-])

The next day, Uncle Cui returned to the main bedroom with a pair of dark circles under his eyes. The maid helped him to wash and change his clothes, and then he hurried to the main hall to greet the old lady.

"Hey, Mr. Lang, what's wrong with you? You look so ugly?"

As usual, Mother Qiu came out to answer the old lady's questions. When she looked up, she saw Cui Youbo's dark circles as if he had been punched twice. She couldn't help but exclaimed and asked with concern.

"Hush~~Mother Qiu, keep your voice down, don't let Grandma hear you."

Uncle Cui hurriedly raised his index finger to his lips, and said in a low voice: "I'm fine, but I forgot the time when I looked up the classics in the study yesterday. I didn't want to disturb my wife, so I rested in the study all night. It’s okay, it’s okay. Mommy Qiu, don’t tell grandma.”

Mother Qiu leaned closer to Cui Youbo, stared at his pale face for a long time, and then replied in embarrassment, "Well, as long as the old lady doesn't ask, the old slave will definitely not report to the old lady. Sir, if there is nothing serious in the yamen today , you'd better come back early to rest. The work is endless, so don't burn yourself out. "

Knowing that Qiu's mother really cared about him, Cui Youbo nodded appreciatively, "Enen, I know, grandma is about to wake up, mother should go back and take care of her old man."

After finishing speaking, he saluted to the window of the old lady's bedroom, and Uncle Cui hurried out of the main hall.

Mother Qiu watched Cui Youbo leave, and only after his figure had completely disappeared did she turn and return to the dormitory.

In the room, the old lady had already sat up, and when she saw Mother Qiu coming in, she said casually, "Is Da Lang okay?"

Mother Qiu knew that the old lady was sleepy, and she could wake up if there was any movement outside, and the old lady must have heard Cui Youbo's words just now, so she described Cui Youbo's haggard appearance without concealment, and finally said: "Old man Don't worry, this old slave has carefully checked, and it is true that Mr. Lang is not resting well, not sick."

The old lady was noncommittal, took the honey syrup prepared by Mother Qiu, and drank it in small sips.

After drinking a cup of warm honey syrup, the old lady said: "Well, I am very happy that he is determined to make progress, but I can't let him spoil his body like this. Remember to tell the kitchen to make more nutritious food , and also told Cui Yi, let him beat those boys who followed Dalang, and let them serve Dalang well. If Dalang does something inappropriate, they should dissuade him in time. If he can't persuade him, You should also report back to the lady and I know in time."

Mother Qiu hurriedly agreed: "Yes, this old servant understands, I will go look for Cui Yi later."

The old lady nodded in satisfaction, and continued to explain: "By the way, after you run out of food, you send someone to the Hepu courtyard to call the fourth lady and the aunt, and tell me that I have something to discuss."

Mother Qiu nodded: "Yes."

After finishing speaking, the old lady rolled over and got off the bed, and Mother Qiu hurriedly stepped forward to help her.

Not long after, the old lady finished her grooming and walked slowly to the main hall, holding Mother Qiu's hand.

In the main hall, Xiao Nan had already rushed over with Lingxi and Changsheng, waiting to greet the old lady.

Seeing the old lady enter the main hall, Lingxi broke away from Xiao Nan's hand, ran to the old lady with short legs, and was about to kneel down to say hello to the old lady.

It's just that the little guy was overdressed, and the heavy cotton-padded clothes and trousers wrapped her already round body even more roundly. As soon as she knelt down, her whole body rolled forward uncontrollably.

"Uh?"

Gululu, the little meatball rolled round, then sat up blankly, looking at the adults in front of them who couldn't understand the situation.

"Hey, Ah Yuan saluted the ancestor? So good!"

The old lady came back to her senses first, and hurriedly ordered the maid beside her: "Hurry up, quickly help the little lady up!"

Xiao Nan also came over with a suppressed smile, and reached out to help his daughter who was full of gold stars, "A Yuan, why don't you say hello to the ancestor?"

Cui Lingxi's children's shoes just came back to her senses, and saluted the old lady with her chubby little fists, and said in a childish voice, "A Yuan pays respects to the ancestor, and the ancestor is well!"

The old lady hurriedly responded, "Hey, A Yuan is so good, the ancestor is fine. Did our A Yuan sleep soundly last night? Did you dream about the ancestor?"

With the growth of age, the weight of the little Lingxi has also risen sharply. For now, the old lady can no longer hold Lingxi.

Mother Qiu hurriedly stepped forward to take Lingxi, and after the old lady sat down, she put Lingxi in the old lady's arms.

Xiao Nan knelt on the futon to salute the old lady. After the salute, she stretched out her hand to take Changsheng, held her son's little hand in her hand, and bowed to the old lady, coaxing, "Come on, let Changsheng also give it to you." The ancestor saluted and said, the ancestor is well!"

Changsheng is less than four months old, he can't talk, he can only babble and babble while drooling.

Lingxi is quite like a elder sister, and followed her to teach her younger brother, "Brother, please pay respects to the ancestor."

Seeing this, the old lady was very happy. She rubbed Lingxi's little head, kissed her on the forehead affectionately, and said with a smile: "Hehe, our A Yuan is the most obedient, and I know how to teach my younger brother."

Lingxi is almost one and a half years old, and she is beginning to understand good words. She knows that the old lady is praising her, and she is even more cheerful, clasping her chubby little finger and saying: "Enen, Ah Yuan listens to the old ancestor's words, Ah Yuan is the best!"

After the grandparents and grandchildren played around for a while, the maids began to set up food tables, and the maids in the kitchen placed the meals in the food boxes on the respective food tables of the hosts.

It is the Cui family's rule not to talk about food, even for Xiao Lingxi, some mothers have already begun to teach her the corresponding dining etiquette.

Quietly finished eating, Xiao Nan talked with the old lady for a while, then took the two children back to the Weirui Courtyard.

Here, Yao Shi and Cui Xuan who got the news also came to Rongshou Hall on time.

Just as Xiao Nan guessed, after the old lady introduced Li Hong's information, both Yao Shi and Cui Xuan showed extremely dissatisfied expressions.

What does the old lady mean?
They are also the young ladies of the Cui family who have not left the court. Cui Wei and Cui Heng can marry the prince and become the princess, but she, Cui Xuan, can only marry a humble scholar who is not in the public eye?
Bullying is not this kind of bullying, is it?

Everyone in the Hepu courtyard knew that the old lady didn't want to see them, but Cui Xuan still didn't expect that the old lady would be so 'partial' to this field.

Yao shi thought more about it. A few days ago, following the Cui family's wishes, she severely humiliated Nanping in front of the Wei family. As a result, her son finally reconciled, and lost the princess' daughter-in-law.

Now the Cui family doesn't want to make up for them, instead they come up with some bullshit method to humiliate her Axuan, it's really deceiving.

Did Cui Sanniang really think that Hepuyuan was easy to bully, or did she want to use this method to force them to leave Cui's house? !
No way!Don't even think about it!
Yao's complexion became more and more ugly, and he almost squeezed out a few words through his teeth: "Old lady, my Axuan is Cui's daughter after all, even if her two cousins ​​are not as lucky as her two cousins, she can marry into the royal family and become a princess. At any rate, you can marry a family member, right? The Li family boy, who only has a few acres of Susukida in his family, dares to ask for Cui's daughter?!"

Although Cui Xuan didn't speak, her distorted facial features have already shown her attitude - she disagrees, she disagrees ten thousand times out of a thousand!
Seeing this scene, the old lady was not surprised at all, and she also imagined what Xiao Nan guessed.

Knowing that she would be rejected, she still wanted to raise it. The reason was very simple. She needed Hepu Courtyard to express her opinion aboveboard.

The old lady said indifferently: "Although Li Hong is not a son of an aristocratic family, he is also a son of an official, and he is motivated at a young age. He has already become a seventh-rank law Cao in his weak crown, and he has a bright future—"

Yao interrupted the old lady's words, and said bitterly: "No matter how promising you are, you are just a humble scholar. Huh? From the seventh rank, how many years will it take to get to the rank of a wife and shade son?!"

One is the wife of a low-ranking official of the seventh rank, and the other two are the princesses of the second and third ranks. They are also Cui's daughters. Isn't the gap too big? !
What's more, according to her status, Cui Wei is only a concubine, but her Axuan is a serious daughter, a daughter!

The old lady remained calm and said: "Since that's the case, let's forget about this marriage. If there is a suitable one in the future, I will talk about it with Axuan."

no need!

Although Yao shi didn't dare to refuse explicitly, she had already made a big cross in her heart, and secretly decided that whether her son remarries or her daughter remarries in the future, she doesn't want the old lady to intervene in these matters.

The old lady understood Yao's refusal in her bones, she smiled with satisfaction, very well, this is the result she wanted.

Yao Shi and Cui Xuan were sent away, and the old lady invited Lu Xianjun and Lu Wan.

"This gentleman of the Li family is not a son of an aristocratic family, but his family has rich wealth and a simple population. If he can marry a daughter of an aristocratic family, the whole family will love and cherish him..."

The old lady told Li Hong's situation again.

Unlike Yao's mother and daughter, Lu Xianjun's mother and daughter listened very carefully.

For a long time, Lord Lu and Lu Wan looked at each other and exchanged their thoughts.

In the end Lord Lu bowed and saluted, first thanked the old lady for her help, and then said after deliberation: "If it's convenient, I want to meet that Li Lang!"

Mr. Lu County has experienced double calculations and persecution by her husband's family and her mother's family, and she values ​​the actual benefits her daughter got in this marriage.

From the old lady's description, Lord Lu concluded:

First, Li Hong is young and knows how to make progress, and has an official position, and now he even votes under Cui's family;
Second, although the Li family is not the prestige of a county, it is a wealthy family with thousands of hectares of fertile land and two salt farms;

Third, Li Hong's Aye is the only son, and Li Hong has no brothers or sisters, so all the family property belongs to him alone;
Fourth, people in the world admire the gentry, and so does the Li family. Lu Wangui is the daughter of the Lu family. Marrying the Li family is a marriage, and everyone in the Li family will respect her, including her old lady...

Lord Lu is very aware of his situation. Although they are known as the Fanyang Lu family, they are only side branches, and there are no males in their house, so they are doomed to decline.Li Hong's conditions are not the best, but they are very suitable for Lu Wan.

The old lady smiled and said: "Well, I will arrange it, and then you just go to see each other."

Lord Lu thanked him again, and then left with his daughter.

Looking at the backs of Mr. Lu's mother and daughter, the old lady suppressed her smile. Her time is running out, and those plans must be carried out as soon as possible!
