Chapter 11 The Sad Cui's Daughter (9)
Aunt Yun’s house is clean and tidy, without the gorgeous and exquisite decorations in the main house. Most of the items are a bit worn and look similar to those in Cui Yuzhen’s house.
But Cui Yuzhen was so deserted that she was unpopular. Aunt Yun smelled a mixture of soapberry and dried flowers, which was very lifelike.
Yu'er was quick-witted and worked with Ginlu, and soon brought a pot of hot tea and two cups. The tea set was simple and damaged, and the tea was more of a tea foam. However, Meng Hui and Aunt Yun didn't care, and they held each cup in their hands and sipped in small sips.
"Auntie started arguing when they heard them?" Meng Hui thought to himself that Mr. Cui had such a bad temper this morning. Before she could do anything, she got the name of a starving ghost. It turned out that it was the anger she had accumulated the night before.
However, Aunt Li is so smart that she will take the initiative to mention her children’s marriage?
"Isn't that true! As soon as I came back yesterday, Aunt Li sent someone to come over to invite me. I said I was sick and didn't go. But I was worried about you in my heart and couldn't sleep. So I just built a bench under the tree in the yard to enjoy the cool air. Look, that's the one."
Aunt Yun shook his hand out, Meng Hui glanced at him and saw a tall and lush tree growing just by the walls of this yard and Aunt Li's yard. There was a recliner under the tree, with a few fallen leaves falling on it, and it seemed that it had been confiscated overnight.
"I lay there for a while and heard the master enter her yard," Aunt Yun pursed her lips, unable to tell whether she was disdainful or unhappy. "The more I thought about it, the more bored I felt. I wanted to go back to the house to sleep, but as soon as I stood up, I heard a clattering sound coming from there, as if I had raised the table."
As Aunt Yun spoke, her expression became gossipy. "When I heard it, it was so great! Will Aunt Li actually make the master angry? I went to the bottom of the wall, cough, I listened for a while."
Aunt Yun's pretty delicate face had two blushings, her eyes were shiny, her tone lowered a little, and she looked quite excited.
"It's a pity that they quarreled in the house. I couldn't hear much outside. I just vaguely heard the master saying, 'You're just for the marriage', 'You're so brave', and soon he rushed out of the house and wanted to leave."
Meng Hui listened seriously, judging what Aunt Li said, making Mr. Cui so angry?
Aunt Yun took a sip of hot tea, took a breath, and then said, "Justice just walked into the yard, and I heard Aunt Li chase her out again, crying and saying, "Your Madam doesn't think about me, you have to think about the eldest son." As a result, the master was so angry that he started to take action when he heard this."
Meng Hui frowned, unable to figure out whether the dispute was related to the case, or whether it was a little mess between Mr. Cui, the aunt and his son.
Aunt Yun was so excited that she put down the tea bowl and described it vividly: "Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk, that slap, slap, it hurts my face!" Although she felt that she had a good relationship with Aunt Li, she was still very willing to see Aunt Li being defeated out of some subtle psychology.
"Then I heard Aunt Li slamming to the ground, crying so miserably-"
Meng Hui saw that she was only focused on Aunt Li's miserable situation and quickly asked: "Apart from these, did Auntie hear anything?"
"Um..." When Aunt Yun heard the question from her daughter, she quickly came back to her senses from a child's secret joy and pondered for a moment. "The master walked out of the yard and said 'bad luck'. Aunt Li served the master for many years and was still very handsome. I don't know what he did this time..."
Meng Hui nodded thoughtfully, drank tea in small sips, thinking in his heart that he would find an excuse to sit in Aunt Li's yard.
Aunt Yun quickly put aside the matter of listening to the wall and asked about Meng Hui's plan for the marriage. She didn't want her daughter to marry someone older than Mr. Cui, and when she thought about it, she felt so depressed.
"Girl, you have to do it carefully. This marriage is absolutely impossible! If you don't say anything else, there are a lot of children. How can you be a stepmother for a group of thirty-year-old people? To put it unpleasantly, one day Master Zheng kicked his leg, what should you do?"
"You all know our master and your elder brother. If you have something wrong with you, can you still expect them to support you? Not to mention Madam, if I had known that she was such a person, I wouldn't have let her carry you away if I had held you and hit the pillar!"
Aunt Yun once thought with hope that her daughter could have a better life with the status of a legitimate daughter. By the time she knew that Wang was not in good intentions, it was too late.
Of course, Meng Hui knew that this marriage was not good. Even in order to make Cui Yuying throw away everything in the world and reincarnate quietly, she had to arrange Cui Yuzhen's affairs clearly.
Just eat one bite at a time and do things one by one. As long as you find out the real murderer, the marriage problem will naturally be solved.
The Cui family has committed the murder of the eldest daughter, and the girl in the family will never be taken by Mr. Cui to climb high branches. After all, the high branches are not stupid. In this way, Cui Yuzhen has a much higher chance of marrying an ordinary family and living an ordinary life.
For girls who are not very scheming, a low marriage is much safer than a high marriage. There is no scene of fighting for family property and infighting for concubines. Cui Yuzhen can live at least sixty or seventy episodes.
"Don't worry, aunt, take your time. I'm not in the process of getting married yet, and I'm still far from getting married."
When he heard Meng Hui's words, Aunt Yun became even more anxious. "Oh! Silly girl! Once Lord Zheng comes to the mansion and makes a decision, there is no room for improvement in this matter! No, I'll just go and ask the master's wife!"
Meng Hui's eyes were firm, and he stretched out his hand to press her in position, saying, "Don't worry, even if he is settled, he will have to take it back sooner or later!"
Aunt Yun was confused by her confidence. Although she was a little suspicious, she finally decided to listen to her. "Okay, if there is something to be useful to you, just speak. Even if you sacrifice your life, you can't let you marry an old widower for money!"
Aunt Yun no longer had a delicate posture, and she had a bit of gritting teeth. Meng Hui felt that this might be the way her mother protected her baby.
After chatting in the room for a while, Meng Hui once again turned the topic to Aunt Li. "Does Aunt remember what happened on her birthday? It is said that the master specially asked the eldest son and Cui Yuwei to come for a drink?"
"Why don't you remember? I've even gone to sit down for a while!" Aunt Yun said, and suddenly her eyes darkened.
"But who would have thought that the next day, the big girl happened... The master and the eldest son were called to Yuchi early in the morning, and Aunt Li and I were also watching at the gate of the yard. I saw that her face turned pale, and she covered her mouth and quietly told me that she was unlucky."
"I see, she is very taboo about the death of the eldest girl for her birthday, and she is so angry that she is trembling."
