222: Rebellion (4 more)
Cheng Qing lifted the curtain, and Zhou Heng only saw someone behind him. Before he could see clearly, the curtain was put down again.
With just one glance, Cheng Qing guessed the identities of those people.
The wife of the old lady should be Aunt Wang.
The two young ladies are Cui Sanniang and Cui Siniang.
The young woman should be Cui Peng's wife, and the two children are Cui Peng's children.
Why did Cui Yan live to this day with Mr. Cui and Mrs. Cui?
Because Cui Yan did not lose his composure when Mr. Cui fell down, and did not place his hope on asking for help from outside. Instead, he actively rescued himself and immediately took Cui Peng's close relatives into the custody of the main courtyard!
Cui Peng probably didn't expect that Cui Yan, the fourth brother who was born in the legitimate family, would be so decisive.
Cui Yan and Mr. Cui were not on guard against Cui Peng. In turn, Cui Peng underestimated Cui Yan.
Cui Yan gave Cui Peng a counterattack in an unfavorable situation, and was obviously extremely proud: "I am not afraid of Cui Peng taking the slaughter these days. I have to let Aunt Wang and others taste all the food and drinks, even the medicine juice imported by my father and I. We will only touch it after they have eaten it!"
If Cui Peng has the ability to attack, Cui Yan will die with Cui Peng's close relatives.
This move is really ruthless and effective.
Cui Peng dared not let Cui Yan go now, nor did he dare to enter the main courtyard, and both sides were in a stalemate.
As for which side the other members of the Cui family are on, it is hard to say. They may have been restrained by Cui Peng and they can't help. Now, someone needs to break this balance - no, if you come with Zhou Hengyi, the balance should be broken. Cui Peng shouldn't let the two of them in so stupidly!
Cheng Qing looked at the main room.
Cui Yan and Mr. Cui were lying on the bed to recuperate. Mrs. Cui went to guard the medicine and there was also Cui Wuniang?
Such a big thing happened to the Cui family, and the biological mother and the eldest brother had a quarrel. Cui Wuniang could not be kept in the dark and ready to marry.
Zhou Heng also thought of this and took the initiative to ask Cui Wuniang.
Cui Yan's expression was gloomy, "Fifth Lady is in Cui Peng's hands, and he asked me to let Sanniang and Siniang go for Wuniang."
Zhou Heng's heart was tangled.
Cui Wuniang is not only Cui Yan’s real sister, but also Zhou Heng’s fiancée!
Cheng Qing knocked on the table, "Cui Yan, Cui Peng, people like Cui Peng, want to use the fifth lady as bargaining chip, why only Cui Sanniang and Cui Siniang! Normal people will change their own mother or children first. The relationship between these three brothers and sisters is so good that they are better than their own mother and their biological children?"
Although Aunt Wang is a concubine, Cui Peng crawled out of Aunt Wang's belly.
Two sisters are more important than their biological mothers, and they are never more important than their own flesh and blood.
Cui Peng only exchanged Cui Wuniang for two sisters, there must be a reason!
Cui Yan was about to speak, but Mrs. Cui came in with anger:
"The little beast Cui Peng is here again. He said he wants to see Aunt Zhou at the gate of the main courtyard."
Zhou Heng had a question mark on his face.
Cheng Qing also raised his eyebrows: "Young Master Cui is wrong. The visitor is a guest. How can I distinguish between Brother Zhou and me? If you want to meet, see you together."
Mrs. Cui's face was full of anxiousness.
It seemed as if he was afraid that Zhou Heng and Cheng Qing would be attracted by Cui Peng when they met Cui Peng.
Only Cui Yanman doesn't care.
"You guys meet for me, I also want to know Cui Peng's trump card."
Cui Peng wanted to win over Zhou Heng in the past, but Cui Yan only thought that he had sponsored a ungrateful wolf for three years. Now he could be instigated by Cui Peng, and he would be instigated by others in the future. If he took Zhou Heng away - then he would be instigated by him. If he wanted to bet, he would be insulted.
As for Cheng Qing.
Cui Yan was not worried at all.
What can Cui Peng give to Cheng Qing?
It took Cui Yan three years to become close friends with Cheng Qing. Cui Peng did not have the right time and place. Cheng Qing is not in trouble now, so it is difficult to be moved by external objects!
...
"Uncle Zhou and Cheng Jieyuan have met Silang. I wonder if the two persuasions will be effective. Can Silang change his mind?"
Cui Peng asked Cheng Qing and Zhou Heng to sit down.
While Cheng Qing and Zhou Heng were staying in the main courtyard, Cui Peng had ordered people to prepare a table of good wine and good dishes.
Zhou Heng could not eat anything, staring at Cui Peng with anger:
"Master Cui, how did Cui Yan's legs break? Where is Wu Niang!"
Cui Peng sighed, "It seems that Silang's misunderstanding of me is still there. He fell down from his horse and broke his leg, and he was suspicious and said that I wanted to harm him. What are the benefits of me harming him? The Cui family is still waiting for Silang to enter the imperial examination to change his family!"
Cheng Qing smiled, "Master, no secret words are spoken, Master Cui fell ill, Cui Yan broke his legs, you must have a lot of things to do. If you want to go around in circles, the three of us can talk nonsense for a day. Although I heard Cui Yan talk about this, I still want to hear what Master Cui said, otherwise I would not sit here and drink and eat food at this time, but handed it to the yamen with a piece of paper."
Cui Peng narrowed his eyes, "Cheng Jieyuan, Zhou Heng is the son-in-law of the Cui family, so I invited him to drink, but you are an outsider. What are the benefits of keeping in the affairs of the Cui family? I know you are Jieyuan, with a bright future, and there is still a backer with the Cheng family in Nanyi as a backer, but this is not Nanyi County or Xuandu Mansion. If Cheng dares to reach out, I, Cui Peng, dares to cut it off!"
Cheng Qing was not angry, but instead applauded hard:
"Master Cui, I admire your courage very much! To be honest, your decisive and decisive personality seems to be more suitable to be the heir of the Cui family."
Zhou Heng also admires Cui Peng's courage.
Cheng Qing is usually very generous, but once someone makes her angry, the consequences will be very serious.
Thinking about the poor Cheng Heng, he still can't return to Nanyi County.
That's Cheng Qing's cousin!
Cui Peng sneered twice, ignored Cheng Qing, and asked Zhou Heng directly: "No matter who Mr. Zhou married, he would be the son-in-law of the Cui family. It is true that Wu Niang is the legitimate daughter, but she is not the sister of my Cui Peng's legitimate daughter. Why didn't Mr. Zhou marry Sanniang? What Cui Yan can give you, I, Cui Peng, can do it, even what Cui Yan can't give... I also asked Aunt Zhou to come forward to persuade Cui Yan, let Sanniang and Si Niang go, and I will send Wu Niang to the main courtyard."
Zhou Heng refused to respond.
Cheng Qing was curious: "I understand that Master Cui wants to replace Miss Cui San. You want her to marry Zhou Heng instead of Miss Five. Zhou Heng will marry your own sister, so he will naturally not help Cui Yan again. But you still have to exchange Miss Four back, so you won't beg me for a moment. The Cui family is decorated with lights, and Master Cui wants to marry two sisters at a time. Miss Four's future husband... is it very important to Master Cui?"
Cui Peng looked at her in surprise.
Cheng Qing smiled:
"It seems that I've called it. Master Cui found a backer. No wonder he is so unscrupulous. I'm very curious. What kind of noble man has Master Cui clinged to, giving you the courage to kill your brother and father."
Who says that scholars are all trauma scholars, and it is not easy to be able to break through the scientific examination, and it is even more so that those who can step on a provincial juren to be Jie Yuan.
This is the second time Cui Peng envies Cui Yan today.
