Ji Jin and Cui Changhe suddenly realized that their junior sister had a deep prejudice against marriage.
"Junior sister..." Ji Jin wanted to persuade her that not all marriages were unsatisfactory.
Cui Changhe stopped her in time and changed the topic, "Junior sister has her own ideas. She won't marry if she doesn't want to. According to my talent, there are not many people in this world who are worthy of her."
"Why did you agree?"
"I was just thinking of my mother." Cui Changhe said lightly: "How many of the noble families in the capital don't take concubines? Rather than letting the younger junior sister marry and serve the same husband with others, it is better not to marry at the beginning; That is an insult to our little junior sister, so no man is worthy of her."
In his heart, if there are only two women in this world that he can put his heart into, one is the mother who gave birth to her, and the other is probably his junior sister.
The expression on Ji Jin's face was frozen. Cui Changhe's mother was a concubine and died young. It has always been a thorn in Cui Changhe's heart. It hurts every time she mentions it, but now he can actually say it without changing his expression.
The atmosphere solidified.
Cui Changhe said calmly: "It's all over, it's time to move forward."
What the mother wanted to see more was probably Cui's pair of bitches going down to accompany her.
"Second Senior Brother, when it comes to this matter, Senior Brother and I need to talk to you." Minghua looked around, and there were only four people sitting in the distance reading together, although she occasionally raised her head towards them. Look; but as long as they speak in a low voice, they cannot hear.
"You guys say it."
Cui Changhe nodded, and Minghua looked at Ji Jin.
Ji Jin had to lower her voice and said: "You have the Cui family in mind, think about the separation of the family before taking charge; once the mother and son don't get what they want, their mentality will be unbalanced and they will do anything. "
"I'm not afraid." Cui Changhe said coldly.
"We know you are not afraid, but if you have thought well, you must pay more attention; if some things are dealt with, it will be easier in the future, don't you think?" Ji Jin couldn't say it too straightforwardly, only Remind him tactfully.
Cui Changhe's first reaction was to go see Minghua.
Minghua's eyes were slightly stunned, "Second senior brother, even if the family is separated, you can legitimately take charge of the Cui family; for the mother and son, even if the family is separated, there are many ways to make it difficult for them."
Precisely because the family is divided, it is easier to take action.
Cui Changhe suddenly showed his face, "Okay, you are right, there is more than one way to make them uncomfortable."
"Yes, after the separation, no one can control you." It will be easier to take action, even if Cui Changhe doesn't take action; some people in the Cui family are willing to take action.
Cui Changhe's experience is not a secret in the Cui family, many people know it; once Cui Changhe ascends to the position of the head of the family, there are many people who are willing to fight for him.
"Well, I'll listen to you." Looking away, the smile in Cui Changhe's eyes disappeared, "Thank you, senior brother and junior sister, for thinking so thoughtfully for me."
He had a great idea.
He wants to control Ms. Cui, and he will marry the younger junior sister. In this way, no one will dare to say anything wrong about the younger junior sister. Cui's influence in the capital is not small, and he can protect her.
The legitimate head wife of the Cui family.
He wanted to give it to her.
However, before that, he had to take charge of the Cui family; otherwise, he would not be able to make the final decision on the marriage, and he would have to get married once he was old enough. The man from the Cui family cannot make all the decisions, but he can also find himself in front of the master. When the time comes, he won't be able to refuse even if he wants to.
The three brothers and sisters sat together and talked, talking about the contents of the book, and giving each other their own interpretations. Only with the interpretations understood by multiple parties can the most correct method be found.
The day was spent reading a book. Before Minghua left, Xu Shoufu asked the housekeeper to call three people; two of them were women, both wearing clean plain clothes.
"Minghua, the three of them are the gentlemen who are responsible for teaching you chess, calligraphy and painting." Xu Shoufu said to the three of them: "She is my close disciple, Xiao Minghua; she has a little experience in chess, calligraphy and painting, and the three gentlemen will be more helpful." Teaching.”
The two female gentlemen are middle-aged, and the male gentleman has gray hair on his head.
The three of them looked at Minghua and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Xu."
"You and Minghua go to her house. In the future, if you have no other plans, let Minghua take care of you in your old age." This way the three of them can share their wealth.
The three of them were all a little moved. They were all unmarried people. They were very uninterested in marriage for a while. They had no children, but there were many nephews and nieces in the family. However, because of their non-marriage, there was some complaint from the clan.
If they don't get married when they reach their age, there will be many speculations from the outside world; if not, they can live a good life just by keeping the property in their name, and there is no need to be a husband.
Being a teacher outside, they get paid every month, and there are less gossips and glares; they no longer want to return to the clan, and they live more comfortably outside.
"I've met three gentlemen." Minghua bowed in greeting.
The two female gentlemen were a little dissatisfied with her etiquette and frowned without saying anything. The male gentleman was normal about this and returned the greeting with a smile.
"You're welcome. We'll call you Minghua from now on. How about that?"
"Okay, you can call the three gentlemen whatever you want."
After leading the three people out of the chief minister's residence, the carriage at home was not big enough; it could not accommodate four people at the moment. Fortunately, Ji Jin and Cui Changhe followed, and the three gentlemen took Minghua and Cui Changhe's carriage respectively.
Two female gentlemen rode with Minghua, and the male gentleman went to Cui Changhe.
Cui Changhe kept his eyes still and said, "Hello, Mr. Long."
"Hello, Master Cui." Mr. Long responded politely.
"Is Mr. Long really willing to teach my little junior sister?"
Mr. Long gave him a strange look, then turned as calm as a mountain and said, "Of course I am willing."
"That's good. I hope Mr. Long can teach my little junior sister well. She is very smart. She learns things very quickly and can master everything at once. I hope you can teach her more." It's best to take out everything at the bottom of the box.
"This is natural." Mr. Long's heart moved, he glanced at him again, and looked away; he seemed to understand that this Master Cui was not simple, and his thoughts towards the new student were not simple either.
No one said anything in the carriage until they arrived at Xiao's house; after everyone got off the carriage, Ji Jin, Cui Changhe and Minghua said goodbye and left.
Minghua led the three gentlemen into the courtyard and called the butler, "Gentlemen, this is the butler in my house. Just call him Butler Xiao. If you need anything, just come to him. If you need anything, come to him."
"Hello, gentlemen, my servant Xiao Pingfu is the steward of the Xiao Mansion. If you three have anything to do, please feel free to ask me."
The three gentlemen nodded, and Minghua introduced: "These three gentlemen are the gentlemen my master invited to teach me piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. This gentleman's last name is..."
She did not yet know the names of the three gentlemen.
Mr. Long said: "My surname is Long and my first name is Yu Fei."
"Qu Shuhui."
"Plum."
The three gentlemen simply introduced themselves, and Xiao Pingfu wrote down their names one by one.
Only then did Minghua know the names of the three people. "The housekeeper will take the gentlemen to settle down first. I will go to mother's yard first."
As for the gentlemen, when it's time for dinner in the evening, we can have a meal together and meet each other to get to know each other.
