Records of the Cattle and Horses of Chang'an

Chapter 505 Comments

Cui Shuhua didn't care about her reaction and continued, "Look at what you took out today. I was embarrassed to tell you before because there were so many people around. How dare you say that this thing was the dowry in your dowry? Aren't you afraid that after today, everyone in Qingzhou City will say that the Zheng family of Xingyang has fallen on hard times?"

Zheng Bo Jiang Ting wanted to say that she was not afraid. After all, she had prepared such a gift from the beginning to reveal a message to the outside world - Cui did not like this daughter-in-law.

How divergent can human thinking be?!

She was a member of the Cui clan, and her attitude represented the Cui clan's attitude. Based on this alone, outsiders could make a thousand assumptions, and they were not short-sighted. How could the focus then be on her dowry? What was Cui's status? People would simply think that her claim of picking out her dowry was just an excuse.

But now that Cui Shuhua said this, there was no guarantee that she wouldn't say it again.

What the Sixth Aunt Cui said herself was enough to make others say things she didn't want to hear.

There have been enough jokes at today's flower banquet. If there are any more, she will probably be hanged!

Thinking of this, she tried to calm down and put on a kind smile: "Sixth sister is right, but I was busy all day and forgot about it." As she spoke, she whispered a few words to the maid beside her, and the maid hurried away.

Cui Shuhua was slightly satisfied after seeing this. Is her pension insurance so easy to bully?

"Okay, Nian Nu was frightened today, so it's better for him to go home early. I'll ask Dalang's wife to send the apology gift along with the eldest sister-in-law."

Cui Shuhua finished the remaining tea in the teacup and said, "Jiulang, send Nian Nu back home. Let the court doctor take a good look at him. He only has a few days left, so we need to be more careful. Your mother and I will take care of him here, so you don't have to worry about it anymore."

Zhao Yue was still immersed in the joy of her sister-in-law proudly grabbing two gifts for her daughter-in-law. Upon hearing this, she said seriously, "Your aunt is right. You have to find a way to get rid of the marks on your face as soon as possible, otherwise it won't look good on the wedding day."

"Yes, thank you, ma'am, and thank you, aunt."

Jiang Shangxian thanked him softly, and bowed to Zheng Bojiang who was leaning over. Then she followed Cui Bianxu out like a little bird.

She was in a really good mood. Although she hadn't seen her spoils yet, with Cui Shuhua's support, the spoils would definitely be good.

How can you make money so quickly by earning a living at work?

Hey, that’s why everyone wants to be an actor because the income is high!

Five old women followed behind tremblingly, each with their head lowered lower than the other.

Although I won the first battle, the red mark on my aunt's jaw was ironclad evidence.

It not only proves that she was beaten, but also proves that they failed to protect good people.

Therefore, even if they won, they could not raise their heads, for fear that Cui Bianxu would bring trouble upon them.

Fortunately, Cui Bianxu kept a low profile all the way and didn't utter a word. Only when they saw the two of them get on the carriage did the five maids breathe a sigh of relief.

Yingzi wanted to follow, but Runzhen grabbed her and said, "Let's follow the car."

I guess the son-in-law and his wife have something to say, so they'd better not go over and get in the way.

In the carriage.

Jiang Shangxian leaned against the carriage, his head swaying with the movement of the carriage, and he felt a little weak.

Even though she suddenly acted like a spirited little girl and started hitting people, she was actually just weak.

It was fine during the beating, but her hands started shaking after the beating. Now, even leaning like this makes her feel tired and she wants to lie down.

Cui Bianxu reached out and took a soft pillow, pulled her forward a little with one hand, and stuffed the pillow into her back.

This action brought the two of them extremely close, with Jiang Shangxian's head touching Cui Bianxu's chin. Jiang Shangxian tried hard to control his expression, and his voice was as if covered by a quilt. "Is it really okay to be like this today?"

She was wearing makeup today, and it would be very embarrassing if her face was accidentally imprinted on Xiao Cui's clothes on his chest.

Cui Bianxu deliberately frowned, put his hands back on his knees, and commented seriously, "The kick you gave Zhou Sanniang today wasn't powerful enough, wasn't fast enough, and wasn't stable when it landed. Also, why did you use a slap? Hitting with the palm of your hand hurts. Martial artists like us should use fists. Have you been neglecting your training lately?"

Jiang Shangxian quickly withdrew his shy smile: You bastard!

No one invited you to be a commentator for the boxing championship!

"That's all."

Cui Bianxu secretly glanced at her while rubbing his nose. After thinking seriously for a second, he solemnly announced: "After we get married, you will practice martial arts with me. The key to martial arts is persistence. Although you are still a little weak now, with time, you will be able to be steady, accurate and ruthless next time..."

Before he could finish his words, Jiang Shangxian manually muted his microphone.

Xiao Jiang pinched his mouth with two fingers, feeling unhappy: "What's going on with the eldest room? What do you want to do?"

Everything that happened today was inconsistent with her usual personality. If it were normal, she would never be so bold. Even if those people all teamed up to plot against her, Xiao Jiang felt that she could just keep silent and pretend not to hear.

She had even originally planned to let Yingzi and Runzhen announce to the public that they were practicing silent meditation.

As a result, on the way to Cui's house, this boy suddenly caused trouble for her and made such an excessive request.

Cui Bianxu pointed at her finger, his face flushed, his mind a little hazy—my lady’s fingers smelled like sesame today…

Xiao Jiang loosened his fingers and waited angrily for him to make excuses.

Cui Bianxu straightened his expression slightly, but did not directly answer her question. Instead, he asked, "What do you think about us splitting up?"

"Separate?"

Jiang Shangxian swallowed hard with a dull expression, not understanding why he had to face such questions before he even officially married into the family: "Who will I share it with? How will I share it? How much can I get?"

She hasn't figured out which family is being divided up yet, and whether Zhao Yue and Cui Shuhua can be given to her?

Cui Bianxu: ???

"Of course, our second branch will separate and live on its own. What do you think?" Xiao Cui was a little nervous. They had agreed that they would live in Chang'an on their own after getting married. If they separated, my father and mother would definitely have to go to Chang'an with them.

It's okay for A Niang, she and her wife are very good, but Aye...

Cui Bianxu couldn't help but start thinking about the possibility of leaving Cui Zhe alone in Qingzhou after the family split.

Two people with different educational backgrounds and eras tend to have different mindsets on many issues. Jiang Shangxian's mind tends to be more rigid when facing some ancient questions: "Is your grandfather...not in good health?"

Although her face showed some caution, the meaning of her words was too obvious - is your grandfather going to die?

Cui Bianxu followed her thoughts and recalled Cui Quan's condition, then said with certainty, "I estimate he can live for another ten years."
