As soon as Xueru said this, both Cui Shanshan, who was kneeling on the ground, and Cui De, who was standing aside with an embarrassed face, fell silent.After a while, several people realized that Cui De was the first to wake up, with a little embarrassment on his face.

"Xueru, this...is what you said true?" Although Cui De was happy that Cui Xueru was not pursuing this matter, but he was a little disbelieving in his heart. Xueru... really did not pursue it anymore?

Not to mention that he didn't believe it, even the other two didn't believe it. Yuan Shi knelt on the ground, the tears in the corners of his eyes hadn't been wiped off, and he looked at her suspiciously.Even Cui Shanshan withdrew her resentful gaze and looked astonished.

"Then according to daddy's words, is Xueru still going to pursue it?" Cui Xueru smiled with a hint of sarcasm, but Cui De quickly said: "It's fine if you don't pursue it, it's fine if you don't." Puzzled, but since Xueru herself said not to pursue it, it would be best for him.

Cui Xueru glanced lightly at the two people kneeling on the slate floor, and smiled at the corner of her mouth. There seemed to be something hidden in the smile, and Yuanshi's eyes flickered with anger.

This Cui Xueru is so difficult?Not only did he win the competition, but he also put their mother and daughter into such a mess, how could he let her go so easily?Yuanshi lowered his eyes, restraining the cold light in his eyes, and when he looked up, his face was full of pain and regret.

Cui De still fined Cui Shanshan for three months, copying poems and books, without his order, she was not allowed to leave the house or yard at will.The Yuan family was also fined for half a month for not being strict in teaching daughters, and handed over the power of the Cui family to the steward, so as to reflect on himself.

Although Yuan Shi secretly hated Cui Xueru, there was nothing he could do about it. He could only comfort himself, but it was only half a month, and it passed after a while.If Cui Xueru wants to live in the Cui Mansion in the future, she will have to live on her face.

Thinking of this, Yuanshi's distorted face eased slightly, he straightened his temples, picked up a cup of tea at hand, and took a sip.

Yuan Shi felt a slight pain in his chest from Cui Xueru's anger. When he got up in the morning these days, he always felt flustered. With an impatient look in his eyes, he casually said to the woman standing beside him: "Go to the kitchen and cook a bowl for me." Bird's nest." Fu thought about it again, "Two bowls, the other bowl is for Miss."

These few days Shanshan stayed in the room, wondering if she was bored.Thinking of this, Yuan Shi felt distressed again.

The mother-in-law led the order to go out, and was waiting, when a servant girl hurried in from outside.

The servant girl is the big servant girl in the mansion, she has been with her for five or six years, and she has seen the world at ordinary times, but today she rushed in with panic on her face for some reason, and whispered in her ear: " It’s not good, madam, Zhang Xiuping, son of the Zhang family, is here to propose marriage.”

Hearing Zhang Xiuping's name, Yuanshi was overjoyed at first.Zhang Xiuping has always been her most promising son-in-law candidate, with a good family background, not to mention that Shanshan still falls in love with him.Cui De invited the master of the Zhang family to have dinner at home, and he also met with Shanshan, and the two families were quite satisfied with each other.

So when he heard the news, joy flashed in Yuanshi's eyes.Suddenly remembered, if this is the case, why is the maid so panicked?

The servant girl said anxiously: "The marriage proposal of Mr. Zhang is the young lady, not our young lady."

Yuanshi seemed to be struck by lightning, his eyes went black for a while, his whole body went limp, he couldn't believe it, he asked again: "What did you say, say it again?"

The maid then explained the matter in detail.

It turned out that Master Zhang personally brought people here to propose marriage this time, and he brought four or five boxes of betrothal gifts, all of which were silk and satin, celadon jade bowls, and a small box of silver.Added up, the dowry is worth more than a thousand taels.

Mr. Zhang has a big belly and looks full of wealth. As soon as he entered the door, he greeted Cui De, "Haha, Mr. Cui, now our two families will become in-laws."

Seeing this posture, Cui De was full of surprise, "Here, Master Zhang, what are you doing for..."

Master Zhang is full of smiles, his cheekbones are puffy, and he smiles like a Maitreya Buddha: "Master Cui, I am here today to repair the peace of my son and propose marriage to your daughter Xueru."

Hearing this, the smile on Cui De's face froze, "Xueru?" He seemed a little unbelievable, and asked a few more tentatively: "You mean my eldest daughter Cui Xueru?"

No wonder Cui De looks like this, it's just that Mr. Zhang has been here several times before, and he saw that it was Shanshan, and Yuanshi was also in his ears. Not only can the relationship go further, but it is also excellent for his business.

As for Xueru, she should have never met Mr. Zhang, and logically she is not familiar with Young Master Zhang, so why did she suddenly come to propose marriage today?

Cui De didn't know the relationship between the two, so he couldn't understand it, so he had to ask.

"No, Miss Cui is proficient in everything from piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she shined at the Douyuan Festival. Don't say that my family is flat, even in this capital, there are many young talents who fall in love with Miss Cui." Zhang Zhang The master stroked his short beard, his eyes almost narrowed into a slit.

"And I also heard that the dead wife and your first wife had a marriage contract, and they only said that they married after they grew up. This... this is a golden marriage." Words Among them, Master Zhang is quite satisfied with Cui Xueru.

At the mention of his dead wife Chen, Cui De's forehead was covered with fine sweat.In fact, he knew about this a long time ago, and he knew everything about the marriage contract between the two of them. Even so, what he was thinking at the beginning was to marry Shanshan.

At that time, Xueru didn't look very good-looking, she was weak and sickly, her complexion was sallow, she saw herself as obsequious, she didn't look like a lady from a big family.It is said that the servants in the mansion also believe it, but Shanshan is different, she is cute and cute, and she is deeply liked by me.In addition, Yuan Shi often whispered in his ear, and he also came up with such an idea.

"This..." Cui De hesitated for a moment, with an embarrassed smile on his face, but he didn't immediately agree.Master Zhang thought that there might be some changes in this matter, and he was a little anxious for a moment, "Master Cui, what's the matter, could it be that you don't like Xiaoer Xiuping?!"

"No, no...of course not." Cui De quickly explained, his face flushed: "It's just that it was my Shanshan who met Master Zhang before, I thought..."

"Shanshan..." Mr. Zhang hesitated, hesitated to speak, secretly looked at Cui De's expression, how could Cui De be deceived by this action, his heart was clear and a little cold.

"Shanshan is good, but now these rumors outside are intensifying, besides, at the Douyuan meeting..." Master Zhang didn't finish his sentence, leaving half of it, but Cui De knew what the second half was about.The anger that had been calmed down before was ignited again.

It seems that Shanshan has made such a mess that everyone knows about it.

Seeing Cui De's appearance, Master Zhang hesitated for a moment, thinking of the previous rumors, and finally said: "Master Cui, I know you like Shanshan. But the person who has a marriage contract with Xiuping has always been Xueru. Besides, This marriage contract was made by the late wife and your original spouse, now that the old man is dead, how can this promise be voided so easily?"

Master Zhang's words poured a basin of cold water on Cui De's head, which made him feel cold all over, but also completely froze his brain.He seemed to wake up, opened his mouth, his neck seemed to be tightly pinched by a hand, it took him a long time to react, his face was complicated.

"You're right..." Cui De muttered a few times before raising his head: "That's right, according to the agreement, Xueru should marry Xiuping." With a ray of nakedness, Cui De didn't know when, he was already sweating profusely.

Master Zhang was overjoyed when he heard the words, and immediately handed over the dowry gift and marriage letter to Master Cui, and made an appointment for the two to discuss the future marriage in detail.

After sending Master Zhang away, Cui De sat on a chair, thought for a long time, thought for a while, called the butler, said something in his ear, and got up to look for Cui Xueru.

At this time, the summer light was just right, and there was a green shade in Cui Xueru's yard, with green vines on it, casting a shade in the yard.

Cui Xueru stood under the green shade, holding scissors in her hands, focusing on pruning a pot of gardenias, her eyes focused.The blue silk was simply rolled up, and she was wearing a gauze skirt, with bright white teeth and a dignified demeanor.In this dull and hot summer day, this small world looks extraordinarily cool.

Cui De stood at the entrance not far from the yard, he didn't know where to put his hands, and wanted to speak, but he didn't say it in the end.In the end, it was Xiaomei, the maid beside Cui Xueru, who saw Cui De and exclaimed in surprise: "Master?!"

Cui Xueru turned her head in surprise, seeing that Cui De's neck was flushed, but his face was serious.Cui Xueru asked softly, "Father, why are you here?"

Seeing his daughter approaching, Cui De wanted to put on a kind smile, just like he did to Shanshan, but he didn't know how to express it. In the end, he could only say a few words, saying that Mr. Zhang came to propose marriage, briefly told Cui Xueru.

"Since it is the marriage contract that my mother made for Xueru before she was alive, Xueru will definitely keep it. Besides, I have met that young master of the Zhang family. He has good conduct and is not a bad person." With tenderness in his eyes, he thought for a moment, and gave him Spread out a bright smile.

Cui De breathed a sigh of relief, and wanted to say something to Xueru, but found that the person standing in front of him was so strange to him.

He wanted to chat with Xueru about the past, and he also wanted to greet her like a loving father, asking her if this marriage was really what she wanted.But he didn't know how to speak, Cui De looked at his daughter's face, the shadow of the past could be vaguely seen on the fair face, the girl with thin skin and yellow skin seemed to be in her teens.

I suddenly remembered that the past few months seemed to be different from what it is now. I have no idea what she has experienced.

Cui De's face suddenly turned red, and a feeling of annoyance rose in his heart. His face was flushed, and it seemed that even his veins had burst out. "You... father will definitely prepare a good dowry for you..." After saying this, Cui De did not stop, but left directly.

The smile on Cui Xueru's face remained the same, but after Cui De turned and left, she restrained her smile and looked at his back with complicated eyes. After a long time, she sneered and set her eyes on the flowers and trees in front of her, trimming them carefully. .Everything that happened just now was as if it had never happened.

Before the young master of the Zhang family came to look for her, he only told her one thing, that is, he would come to Cui's mansion to propose marriage in a few days.I was beaten by him in a daze, and I didn't know what to say back to him.I only remember that Xiuping was ecstatic, hugged himself, said "wait for me" and ran away quickly.

She returned home in a daze, and when she approached the door, she suddenly realized that her eyes were clear.

She secretly speculated in her heart that after returning home, her father would definitely excuse Cui Shanshan, but Cui Shanshan did such a thing that insulted the family, her father must be very angry, and punishment must be inevitable.

But Xiuping will come over to propose marriage in a few days, if Yuanshi and Cui Shanshan are here, what kind of troubles will happen.

After many twists and turns in my heart, I finally decided to pay attention, and there was a firm look in my bright eyes. I have reached the last step, and it is absolutely impossible to fail again.

The author has something to say: I feel that my update time is uncertain, I want to confirm the update time, but I keep running naked, woo woo woo...

This large section of the plot is finally finished, and there will be a special episode in a few days, telling the final ending of the family, it can be regarded as evil comes with evil, good... um...

Haha, for the subsequent plot...Su Nan will continue to transform the beauty, I feel that there are a lot of foreshadowing buried, I will almost forget it if I don't write it again.
