Bai Dazhuang and Dalang hurriedly rushed from Huaicheng to Shenshu Village.
I saw my younger sisters Xiao Fuyuan and Feng Zhiheng playing in the village.
"Brother." Xiao Fuyuan saw Bai Dazhuang approaching him from a distance.
"Sister, do you miss your elder brother?" Bai Dazhuang jumped off the carriage and picked up his sister. He had not seen his sister for nearly a day.
Bai Dazhuang usually goes to the fields to tend the crops, but it is difficult to see his sister from morning to night. I don't think so in Shenshu Village, but once I leave Huaicheng and can't see my sister for even a quarter of an hour, it's better than in Shenshu Village.
"I have thought about it." Xiao Fuyuan said with a smile, "I miss you big brother very much."
Every time her brothers came home from outside, the procedure was to ask her if she missed them, and she would smile sweetly and say she did.
Xiao Fuyuan is familiar with the standard process.
"Little aunt, do you miss me?" Dalang asked.
"I miss my eldest nephew." Xiao Fuyuan touched Da Lang's head like an elder.
"Sister, I was in a hurry to go to Huaicheng this time and didn't buy you a gift. I'll make up for it next time." Bai Dazhuang looked guilty.
Xiao Fuyuan shook his head and said: "No gifts."
After all, the eldest brother is going to do business. Looking at his dusty appearance, I am afraid that even Erlang and Fourth Brother have not had time to see him.
"Brother, go home quickly, your parents and grandma are still waiting for you." Xiao Fuyuan said.
Bai Dazhuang slapped his forehead and forgot about the business.
Bai Dazhuang became angry when he thought that the Ning family was going to break off the engagement with his fifth brother.
He couldn't help but ask Xiao Fuyuan: "Sister, do you think the marriage between your fifth brother and Cuicui can still happen?"
The main reason is that my sister likes Cuicui very much, and Cuicui and her sister get along well. If this marriage falls through, what if the fifth brother finds an unknown person from the border and has a conflict with his sister.
If Xiao Fuyuan knew that his eldest brother had such thoughts about his fifth brother's marriage, he would definitely look helpless.
"Don't worry, brother, Fifth Brother and Sister Cuicui will definitely get married." Xiao Fuyuan said with determination.
Bai Dazhuang was relieved.
"Brother, let's go back, someone from the Luo family is here." Xiao Fuyuan reminded Bai Dazhuang that talking to her at the entrance of the village wasted too much time.
"Luo family, who is the Luo family?" Bai Dazhuang asked while walking towards home with Xiao Fuyuan.
"Dad, you forgot, the Luo family is the family that Aunt Cuicui's father promised her when they were drinking. Didn't Aunt Cuicui's father mention it when we were in the prefecture?" Dalang added at the side.
Bai Dazhuang hugged his sister with one hand and patted his forehead with the other. After driving all night, his mind was in a daze!
"Dad, you're here."
When he got home, Xie Chuntao greeted him.
Bai Dazhuang had already learned about the Luo family's mother and son from Xiao Fuyuan on the road, and he was not relieved.
The key to the marriage between Cuicui and her fifth brother lies not with the Luo family, but with the Ning family.
I'm afraid the family still doesn't know that Cuicui's father wants to regret the marriage to his fifth brother.
Bai Dazhuang told his grandmother and parents everything he said about the Ning family in the prefect's home.
Because of Cuicui's presence, Bai Dazhuang was too embarrassed to repeat Ning Kuang's more unpleasant words.
After all, Cuicui is innocent, and she is a very lovable girl who has been praised by her younger sister. It would be bad if her grandmother is displeased because of her father's affairs.
When Cuicui heard that her father was really going to terminate her engagement with Bai Zhaomei, her face turned pale with fear.
Dad became so stubborn that even the prefect uncle didn't take him seriously.
Her parents ordered a matchmaker, and if her father insisted on doing so, there was nothing anyone could do.
Cuicui's eyes were filled with tears. Xiao Fuyuan quietly walked over and held her, comforting her: "Sister Cuicui, don't cry."
"I'm afraid Cuicui's father knew Cuicui came to our house and was worried that he might have said too much." Xie Chuntao said from the side.
Xie Chuntao was also surprised. His daughter was scolded by the Luo family and left. Instead of caring about her immediately, she was so angry that she wanted to break off the engagement.
Xie Chuntao didn't understand Ning Kuang's thinking, but was embarrassed to speak directly in front of Cuicui.
Mrs. Zhen glanced at Cuicui twice and asked Bai Dazhuang: "Is it because you didn't explain Cuicui's visit to our house clearly?"
The last time the two families got engaged, although Ning Kuang was old-fashioned and didn't like to talk, it was obvious that he was quite satisfied with the marriage at that time. Perhaps because scholars have many rules, they felt that it would be embarrassing for their daughter to come to the Bai family before entering the house, so she used the marriage as a weapon and said angrily to break off the engagement.
Zhen also thought that if this was really the case, the Bai family could come and explain.
Cuicui's heart sank. Sister-in-law Chuntao and Aunt Bai's aunt didn't understand her father, but she knew her father very well.
What Dad said about breaking off the engagement was not an angry talk at all, but he meant it.
Bai Dazhuang shook his head and said, "It doesn't look like he was speaking out of anger."
He said this in front of the prefect, and still refused to give in when Liu Hong tried to persuade him.
It can be said that Ning Kuang simply shattered Bai Dazhuang's impression of the Ning family.
If it weren't for the fifth brother and the Bai family, Bai Dazhuang would have wanted to make the decision and agree to Ning Kuang's request.
The fifth brother of his family is a talented person. He has already served twice in such a short time after joining the army. More importantly, he is the cousin of the village head Furong.
Unless Bai Dazhuang showed off and let his fifth brother out on this condition, I don’t know how many people would be willing to marry him.
Old Mrs. Bai was sitting at the top, listening to her eldest grandson's report on what he saw and heard during his trip to Huaicheng. Doesn't it sound like he was speaking out of anger?
Old Mrs. Bai looked at Cuicui.
Cuicui's tears burst out all of a sudden
He sobbed and said: "Brother Da Zhuang is right, my dad...my dad...wuwuwu..."
Cuicui whimpered.
She doesn't want to marry Luo Zhi.
I don’t want to marry anyone except Bai Zhaomei.
"Cui Cui, is that your father? Why do you want to push you into the fire pit?"
Thanks to the second sister-in-law, Eugene Gui, for saying what everyone wants to complain about.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that even if the engagement with the Bai family is broken off, the Luo family is not a good family.
Even the Bai family can see it, but Ning Kuang can't?
For his own sake, he actually pushed his daughter into the fire pit.
Bai Banban felt a little regretful at this time. If he had known that Ning Kuang was such a person, he would never have let Lao Wu and Cuicui get engaged.
He didn't want to be married to the person who pushed his daughter into the pit of fire.
"What did Cuicui's mother say?" Old Mrs. Bai asked Bai Dazhuang.
"...I'm worried about Cuicui and doesn't agree with breaking off the engagement with my fifth brother." Bai Dazhuang said truthfully.
When Cuicui heard this, she burst into tears again.
She ran out of the house and was most worried about her mother.
"Good boy, don't cry. It's not your fault." Zhen said to Cuicui.
"Then my dad's place..."
Because of her father, the fifth eldest son of the Bai family and her happy marriage were facing annulment. Not only that, they were also provoked by the Luo family for no reason.
That's it, the Bai family didn't say anything unpleasant to her.
The Bai family has been extremely kind to her.
The key to this matter lies with her father, but the Bai family cannot tolerate her father again and again.
Her father could even say that he wanted to break off the engagement. Who wouldn't be angry after being insulted like this?
Cuicui felt ashamed to marry into the Bai family.
"Mom, let's go to Ning's house in Huaicheng tomorrow to talk about the marriage of the two children in detail?" Although Mrs. Zhen asked the old lady in a questioning tone, she had already made up her mind.
Mrs. Bai naturally had no objection.
If she hadn't liked Cuicui, she wouldn't have been able to swallow this sigh of relief at this moment. If she wanted to let go of her previous temper, she would not only have to break off the engagement, but also have to do so in a big way.
