Happy Wife Ying Ying

Chapter 58 The price of life

Chu Zijiu led the three children into the inner room.

Xie was half-sitting, leaning against the folded quilt behind her, her whole person seemed to have calmed down a lot, and the usual expression returned to her face.It's just that the hands placed on the chest are clenched tightly, showing that this determination is not so easy.

Mrs. Xie beckoned to Yingruo, and Yingruo climbed onto the kang and snuggled up to her.

Chu Qiaoruo and Chu Chengruo also sat on the edge of the Kang.

But Chu Zijiu sat on the stool in front of the kang, and said silently: "If you think it's hard to say, why don't you let me say it!"

Mrs. Xie shook her head, "I'm the one involved! How much do you know? If what happened is right, the matter can't be covered up to now. Then, the truth of the year is better than letting them catch the wind from other places. I will tell you personally. It will also prevent them from thinking wildly and being used by others in the end."

Before Yingruo was lying on Li Guangyu's back, she was a little dozed off, but now she was going to listen to Chen Nian's secret, her eyes became bright.

Xie said: "My surname was originally not Xie, nor Xie Xian, but Li. If Cheng Ruo turns to the eleventh year of the Chinese New Year and is going to be admitted to Lingshan Academy, he will naturally not die of studying. Then let me ask you , do you know any people in the capital whose surname is Li?"

Chu Chengruo glanced at Chu Zijiu, and said just now: "A few years ago, Dad talked about it. The most prosperous lord's house in the capital is naturally the Mansion of Marquis Wen'an. People who say that the Cui family, whether they are among civil servants , or in the generals, there are many infiltrations. But when it comes to the noble family, it is the Li family, a family of poetry and calligraphy that lasted for two dynasties. From the previous dynasty to the present, it has been established for more than a hundred years. There are already 32 Jinshi, and there are five champions, two second places, and three Tanhua. My father said that the Li family is the family that knows how to hide its strength and bide its time. Otherwise, it would not have been reused by the royal family after two dynasties. Therefore, Because of the power of the Cui family, the Li family has the intention of retiring. In the current court, the biggest official of the Li family is just a servant of the Ministry of Rites. The rest, either concentrate on learning, or send them to remote places to be inconspicuous little official."

"Oh!" Yingruo exclaimed, "What a powerful family!"

Chu Qiaoruo snorted coldly, "The more glamorous the family, the more they care about face. Sometimes for the glory of a family, personal life and death are insignificant."

Ying Ruo was thoughtful, "Sister, you mean that behind the glorious honor of the Li family, many people paid the price for it, either in blood or in life, right?"

Xie's breathing stagnated, and then he sighed heavily, "The Li family's glory is not allowed to have the slightest stain. Anyone who brings shame to the family will only have a dead end. My original name is Li Yishu, and I am from the Li family. The eldest daughter of a generation has high hopes from the family. Then, when I was 16 years old, I made an unforgivable mistake. In order to keep the family's face, I had to die."

"At that time, the eldest daughter of the Li family could be said to be peerless, not only in terms of appearance, but also known as the number one talented woman in the capital." Chu Zijiu couldn't help interjecting.

"What are you talking about? It's not appropriate to eat or drink!" Mrs. Xie said indifferently, "If you didn't have such a reputation, how could you bring about disasters later?"

Yingruo has finally come to terms with it now, no wonder Mrs. Xie strongly opposed it when she said she wanted to learn skills from Mrs. Yue on the day of Xiaonian.It turned out that when I was young, I was deeply harmed by it!
"But it's related to the Cui family?"

Mrs. Xie raised her hand and touched Yingruo's head, "You have seen Cui Xing before. But at the age of thirteen or fourteen, he has already grown into a look that is a disaster for the country and the people. He looks very similar to Cui Xing. You picked it up!"

"Is that Cui Junxie the current son of Marquis Wen'an?" Yingruo asked.

Xie Shi nodded, "It should be!"

Yingruo said: "Since my mother is considered the most talented woman in the capital, she shouldn't be a superficial person who only recognizes her appearance."

Xie smiled wryly, "The world is so big, how many people don't care about good looks? What's more, Cui Junxie not only has a good skin, but his poems and songs are also very famous. As a noble family, he is a There is no need to take the imperial examination. But that year, he went there anyway, and he came back with a biography."

"I have read his articles. They are flashy, superficial, and have no connotation. They are just grandstanding. If it is said that his articles can also win the top two, there is nothing tricky in it. I don't believe it." Chu Zijiu said full of dissatisfaction.

Xie cast a complicated look in the past.

Chu Zijiu said: "A man cannot be judged by his appearance, and the sea cannot be measured. Apart from being good-looking, he doesn't even have a sense of responsibility. What kind of man is he?"

"Yeah!" Ying Ruo nodded sharply, "I think Daddy is the most handsome and responsible man in the world, no one can compare to him."

Chu Zijiu was startled, and then laughed.

Even Mrs. Xie laughed, stretched out her hand and squeezed Yingruo's little face.

The solemn atmosphere in the room suddenly became much lighter.

"My daughter has the best vision." Chu Zijiuzhi said proudly.

However, Mrs. Xie breathed out, "When I was her age, I didn't see things as clearly as she did. At that time, I was indeed deceived by his appearance, and even blindly made a private appointment with him." for life."

Yingruo was slightly stunned, "Why? You two are well-matched. If he is happy with his mother, shouldn't he invite a matchmaker to come and propose marriage?"

Mrs. Xie gave her a hard look, "You little brat, you know a lot. Where did you hear all this?"

Looking at his son again, he was obviously two years older, but when he talked about the marriage, he looked ignorant.That foolish look in matters of love really resembles Chu Zijiu.

Yingruo pouted, "Haven't you ever eaten pork, haven't you seen a pig running? So, don't treat me like a brat anymore, I'm already nine years old!"

"Yes!" Chu Zijiu smiled, "Yingying has indeed grown up!"

Chu Qiaoruo said: "Since I think I have grown up, I should abide by some rules that belong to adults. Men and women can't kiss each other! From now on, don't let strange men carry it casually."

Yingruo choked, this elder sister really hit the nail on the head!The key point was that the needle was inserted precisely, and it hit her dead point all at once, and she seemed powerless even if she wanted to refute.

"Brother Guangyu is not a random stranger!"

Chu Zijiu coughed twice, "Well, what your sister said is right, you must pay attention to the defense of men and women in the future."

Yingruo wrinkled her bitter face, "I just treat him as my brother! Do you still want to see your brother?"
