Chitose words

Chapter 108 Dispute
Yu An'an and Li Suixin didn't wait too long, but within half a cup of tea, the carriage from the Ministry of Industry's Minister's Office arrived belatedly.

When Li Suixin saw the carriage passing by at the other end of the street, she pulled Yu Anan out of her carriage with a look of joy on her face.

The Cui family in Qinghe is a clan home, so the carriages in the family are ordinary in appearance, and the decorations and materials are very low-key, not luxurious or ostentatious.

"Sister Yueru!"

As soon as the carriage stopped, the door was hurriedly pushed open from inside.

A lively and lively girl appeared half-body and replied happily: "Sister Suixin!"

The noble daughter of the Cui family in Qinghe always married late and left home relatively late.

Cui Yueru has just turned 15 this year, and she is not yet old enough for girls in her clan to talk about marriage.She is also the youngest daughter of the Minister and his wife, and she is pampered by several older brothers and sisters, so she was raised very innocently and coquettishly.

After seeing Yu Anan standing next to Li Suixin with a smile, Cui Yueru was slightly startled and asked: "Who is this sister?"

Li Suixin introduced her: "This is my father's adopted daughter Yu An'an, my sister. She is the only daughter of my father's eight-year-old acquaintance, the late General Ping Wei."

at home?

General Pingwei?

Cui Yueru frowned slightly and thought.

She was young, and when she was born, there was already no Yu family in Zhaoge City.

In addition, Qinghe Cui was a civil servant, so she was not very familiar with military generals, so she had never heard of the so-called "General Pingwei".

But although the little girl was cute and naive, she was also very polite and did not reveal her doubts too obviously.

Li Suixin was similar in age to her, and they were very familiar with each other. They knew that she would not get along well with others if she lived in the inner courtyard for a long time, so she said it calmly.

"Sister Yueru is young, so she may not be aware of General Pingwei's reputation in the past, but you must have heard of it from your mother's family, sister Yueru."

She blinked and continued with a smile:

"The famous Crown Prince and Tutor, Mr. Ning Wuji and Mr. Ning, is sister Yu's maternal grandfather."

"what!"

Now Cui Yueru knew.

She stared at Yu Anan, who had a gentle temperament but an unattractive appearance, and couldn't help but exclaimed in astonishment:
"Yongzhou Ning! Sister Yu's mother was originally from the Ning family in Yongzhou?

Our Cui family has a distant aunt who married into the Ning family in Yongzhou.In this way, we are still relatives. "

The large families of the Tianchen family have been intermarriage for generations, with numerous side branches, many heirs, and complicated and messy in-law relationships.

If you take a few turns up, down, left, and right there, you can find a few unexpected old in-laws.

Yu An'an followed the good example and said with a smile:
"I see. No wonder I see sister Yueru being so kind. It turns out that my sister and I are destined to be together."

Yu Anan is a gentle and considerate person, and with the so-called distant marriage relationship that is not too far, but not really close, the relationship between Yu Anan and Cui Yueru is somewhat less strange than when they first met. and estrangement.

The three girls took their personal maids, handed the banquet notice at the door, and entered the Wan Mansion in front of them together.

At this time, almost everyone in Wanfu who should be there has arrived.

As Li Suixin walked, she was still thinking about her eldest sister whom she had not seen for a long time, and asked with concern:
"By the way, sister Yueru, how is my eldest sister doing lately?"

Cui Yueru covered her lips and smiled.

"Sister-in-law is naturally fine. It's just that Xiao Sanlang has had some gastrointestinal discomfort recently. Sister-in-law is inevitably worried, so she didn't come out with me this time."

Miss Li got married at the age of 17 and has been married into the Cui family for 11 years now.

The year after her marriage, she was very proud to give birth to her eldest son, Cui Yueyuan, her second son two years later, and her third son two years later.

Miss Li married into her husband's family and gave birth to three sons in a row. In addition, the strength of her mother's family cannot be underestimated, so her position in her husband's family can be said to be as stable as a mountain and everything goes well.

The "Little Sanlang" in Cui Yueru's mouth is Li Suihong's youngest son, who is now only six years old and the youngest son of the Cui family.

Cui Xiaosanlang has been depressed due to his recent gastrointestinal discomfort, so Li Suihong, the daughter-in-law of the Cui family, is very busy.

Mrs. Cui rarely participated in unimportant poetry and tea parties held by other families like today. It was always her sister-in-law who came forward, treating it as a little girl going out to play.Hearing this, Li Suixin quickly asked with concern:

"Xiao Sanlang is sick? Is the illness serious? Have you seen a doctor?"

"Don't worry, my father, a second generation relative, takes great care of our three little golden grandchildren. He also specially offered a discount to invite a doctor from the Tai Hospital to come to the house. He said that he would be fine after taking a few pills."

Li Suixin felt relieved.

"That's perfect. Children are always more delicate."

Cui Yueru also smiled and answered casually:
"No, I was said to be very delicate and difficult to raise when I was a child."

A few people were chatting away, but suddenly, several young ladies about their age walked in from the corridor behind them.

One of them was even more obviously hostile, and she interjected in a loud voice:
"Hey, who I thought was so 'delicate' turned out to be the sixth girl from the Cui family in Qinghe. No wonder."

Such obvious malice made the three girls enjoying the cool air and drinking tea in the pavilion frown.

Cui Yueru and Li Suixin glanced at each other inadvertently and turned away.

When they saw the girl behind them who was surrounded by a group of boudoir girls, the two of them immediately grimaced.

Cui Yueru was neither humble nor overbearing when she was being talked about in such an inexplicable way. She said crisply:
"Eavesdropping on the visitors, it turns out that Wanfu has this kind of hospitality and tutoring. Yue Ru learned the lesson."

And the girl who was surrounded by everyone who just made a sarcastic sound immediately raised her chin high, raised her luxurious and exaggerated gold and jade hair, and spoke in an arrogant tone:
"How presumptuous! We, Wanfu, are the mother's family of Concubine Shu. If you dare to question Wanfu's upbringing, you are questioning Concubine Shu's upbringing!"

Who knows that although Cui Yueru is young, she can stand upright and is not afraid of trouble.

I saw her standing up tall and graceful, with the demeanor of a lady from a wealthy family.

"Wan Bing'er, you are just Concubine Shu's cousin.

I have never been disrespectful to Concubine Shu. I think she is aware of everything and can tell right from wrong.

Furthermore, your concubine is also my biological sister.The noble concubine and Concubine Shu have always been in harmony in the palace, so don't deliberately take the opportunity to target me again and again.

Although I, the Cui family of Qinghe, have been a prominent family for hundreds of years, I do not want to cause trouble, but I am not afraid of it either.

I came to the banquet for the sake of Concubine Shu. If the Wan family is not sincere in hospitality, then we, the descendants of the Cui family, will not come again next time. "

Yu Anan frowned slightly, and then he understood the lawsuit.

She didn't know the origin before. It turned out that the Cui family in Qinghe also gave birth to an imperial concubine, Cui Guibin.

And this noble concubine is none other than Cui Yueting, the fifth girl from the Ministry of Industry's ministerial family. She is two years older than Cui Yueru, the sixth girl's sister.

Although Cui Guifei was in the palace, her status and favor were not as powerful as those of Concubine Wan Shu.However, the Cui family of Qinghe was one of the four major aristocratic families in the Southern Dynasties, with many old friends and relatives in the literary world and the court.

Cui's family was of noble origin, and his power in the literary world should not be underestimated. He was definitely not comparable to a man from a poor family who had become a monk by the way.

But her words undoubtedly completely offended Wan Bing'er.

"Bold! What if the concubine is your biological sister? She is just a little concubine!"

Wan Binger raised her chin proudly and said coldly:

"My cousin and Your Majesty are childhood sweethearts. We have known Your Majesty and Princess Tianchen since childhood. Not to mention your Cui family, even the Queen—"

As soon as this statement came out, the whole court was shocked!

Even though some prominent families in Zhaoge City now know that Queen Bai's favor and dignity in front of His Majesty are not as good as Concubine Wan Shu, how can this be said in broad daylight and in a clear world? of?
"——Miss, be careful what you say!"

The wet nurse behind Wan Bing'er saw that she was getting more and more outrageous, so she quickly gently pulled her sleeves from behind and said anxiously to dissuade her:

"Little ancestor, you don't want to talk nonsense!"

The wet nurse was an old man in the mansion. She had met Concubine Shu before she entered the palace, and she was very clear about the private affairs of the family!
The young lady always likes to think of herself as Concubine Shu's cousin and show off everywhere.

But how close Concubine Shu is to their family, others don’t know, so doesn’t she still know?
