Cui Li looked at Cui Yuan, sighed, and then said: "Shu'er's matter, the old body has also heard about it, Haobai, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, it is better to promise her." ”

When he said this, a look of apology flashed in Cui Li's eyes.

This time, Cui Li was actually entrusted by his grandson Cui Xiyi to persuade Cui Yuan to agree to this family business, on the grounds that Zheng Peng married Cui Lushu, so as not to pose a threat to Guo Ketang, because the Guo family really hoped that Zheng Peng and Guo Ketang could get together.

Cui Li's has seen Guo Ketang, and he likes this good girl who doesn't let her eyebrows go, and her grandson Cui Xiyi married this capable girl, and she will definitely be able to go to the next level, and Cui Xiyi stubbornly said more than once that Guo Ketang would not marry, so this time, Cui Li's is also a little selfish.

"Eldest sister, no, the kid surnamed Zheng, how can He De still want to marry a girl with five surnames, and it is difficult for Xue Yuanchao to marry a girl with five surnames back then." Cui Yuan said with some indignation.

Xue Yuanchao is not an ordinary person, the grandson of Xue Daoheng, the historian of Sui, the son of Xue Shu, a bachelor of literature, and he himself was also promoted to Zhongshu Shilang in the first year of Yifeng (676), and became the prime minister, it can be said that the family background is prominent, but for various reasons, he failed to marry a woman with five surnames, and when Xue Yuanchao said three major regrets in his life in his later years, the first was that he failed to marry a woman with five surnames.

It can be seen from the prestige and status of the seven clans and the five surnames.

Cui Li said unhurriedly: "Xue Gong said that it was unfavorable to the seven clans and five surnames, and several families boycotted him together, so he failed to marry a woman with five surnames, as for He De and how can he be, Zheng Peng is originally a man with five surnames, why can't he marry a woman with five surnames, Haobai, think about what you were doing when you were still Zheng Peng's age?" “

As soon as these words came out, Cui Yuan was speechless for a moment.

When he was the same age as Zheng Peng, he was still uneducated, and he often ran around outside, fantasizing that he had no advantage when pursuing his wife.

Cui Yuan still shook his head and insisted: "No matter what, I still insist that Zheng Peng is not a good match. ”

"What kind of good fate, a person who has a future and can make Shu'er happy is not a good fate, is a green light a good fate?" Cui Li suddenly said earnestly: "Don't let the tragedy of twenty years ago repeat itself, now you only have one granddaughter." ”

As soon as Cui Li's words fell, Cui Yuan's face darkened, and when he turned his head, he saw that his old wife had lowered her head and wiped her tears, and after a while, she had already cried a tearful person.

Needless to say, I must think of my son who ran away from home, and the pain of the white-headed man sending the black-headed man.

Cui Yuan wanted to say something, but when he saw his old wife crying into tears, her sister hugged her and comforted her, and after watching it for a while, she didn't stop, and finally retreated in a low mood.

As soon as I went out, I saw a subordinate say in a panic: "Lang Jun, it's not good, Miss ....."

Cui Yuan was anxious when he heard this, and he couldn't wait to kick it, and immediately shouted, "What's wrong with Miss?" ”

"Miss didn't know why, she was cutting her clothes like crazy, Sister Hong, they wanted to persuade her, but Miss didn't listen, and she held scissors to herself, saying that whoever persuaded her would stab herself."

"Remember, you must not let Madame know about this matter, or you will look good." Cui Yuan left a word, pushed the people away, and trotted to the embroidery building.

Before I arrived at the embroidery building, I saw that the ground was full of clothes, red, green, and green, and threw them all over the place, and the green Shu cloak sat at the window, tearing and cutting for a while, and then throwing down from the embroidery floor after tearing his clothes, as if he was still talking to himself.

"Master" At this time, the cardinal appeared next to Cui Yuan.

Cui Yuan's face changed, and he asked with a cold face: "How did Miss become like this, what happened?" ”

"Miss rummaged through her clothes today, and after inadvertently turning out the clothes she had embroidered to marry, her temperament changed greatly, and she tore those clothes frantically, and she became emotional when she persuaded her, and she didn't let the slave and maid approach, or she would hurt herself, so she ....."

When Cui Yuan heard this, he didn't care about reprimanding the cardinal, and hurriedly ran up the embroidery building.

"It's not over, it's not over."

"Hee-hee, these clothes don't look good, don't wear them again."

"It's not pretty, and it's a waste to keep it."

Lu Shu muttered to herself, as if venting, constantly destroying beautiful clothes with sharp scissors, and then throwing them away.

At this moment, Cui Yuan felt that his heart was like the clothes in Lu Shu's hand, broken to pieces.

Boling Cui's family has a big business, Cui Yuan doesn't care about that bit of clothes, but he is worried that Lu Shu will be thirsty: if he continues like this, he may really be driven crazy by himself.

"Shu'er, what, don't you like these clothes?" Cui Yuan and Yan Min asked pleasantly.

Lu Shu didn't raise her head, and said with some loss: "I don't like it." ”

"Why?"

"Because I'm not going to wear them anymore, no."

Cui Yuan deliberately said in surprise: "That's not good, Shu'er, do you know which one came to the door to propose?" ”

"Father, Shu'er is no longer married, and in the future, I will eat fasting and chant scriptures to accumulate blessings for my father." Lu Shu said calmly.

"It's okay, then I went back to the people of Guofu in Guixiang, he came to propose to Zheng Peng, and I went back to him now." Cui Yuan said as he walked out.

I wanted to test Lu Shu, but I didn't expect to walk out of the door, but Lu Shu didn't react at all, Cui Yuan couldn't help but stop his feet, turned around and asked with a puzzled face: "What's the matter, Shu'er, don't you like that kid of the Zheng family very much, why are you indifferent this time?" ”

"Father, don't tease Shu'er anymore, because it's impossible to agree."

With a "sizzle", another green silk skirt was torn.

Cui Yuan suddenly felt a sense of frustration that he was defeated, he touched it in his sleeve, took out Guo Yuanzhi's worship post, and gently put it in front of Lu Shu: "Shu'er, the eldest father won't lie to you this time, you see, Guo Yuanzhi's worship post of the Guo clan in your township, if you don't believe it, I will take it to see him, and I will know if I am lying to you when I ask." ”

Speaking of this, Cui Yuan gritted his teeth, and finally said with a happy face: "The eldest father is here to promise you that he will never interfere in your marriage again, no matter which one you like, the eldest father agrees." ”

That's it, it's better to have a grandson-in-law who you don't like than to lose a beloved granddaughter, Cui Yuan secretly comforted himself in his heart, the two became relatives, Zheng Peng officially became his grandson-in-law, and he could teach him a lesson justifiably.

Lu Shu looked at the worship post, and then picked it up and opened it with a somewhat trembling hand, confirming that it was Guo Yuanzhi's worship post, and in an instant, two blushes flew on the original pale little face, and he said in disbelief: "Big... Father, what you said is true? ”

"Really, absolutely true, otherwise, the eldest father will go and discuss the engagement with your Uncle Guo, it is inconvenient for you to go, otherwise, you hide behind the screen and listen, so it's always okay, right?"

Lu Shu was so happy that she didn't say a word, and her little head was like a chicken pecking rice, nodding her head constantly.

......

Three days later, an urgent letter was sent to the Anton Governor's Mansion, which needed to be opened by Zheng Peng, Zheng Peng opened it and only glanced at it, and immediately smiled happily: the letter was sent by Old Man Guo on a fast horse, and there were only a few short sentences on it, to the effect that the proposal was successful, and there were some details to discuss with Zheng Peng.

With a "bang", Zheng Peng punched the desk and said excitedly: "Okay, great, good things are grinding, Cui Yuan, this old boy, finally softened, hahaha." ”
