Chapter 91: The so-called kinship
??Chapter 91 The so-called family affection
??Shen Mingjiao raised her eyebrows: "The Duke of Lu's mansion is not unreasonable. If the young master really can't recover, he will probably not force Tong Yuyao to marry him."
??Cui Lingling smiled self-deprecatingly: "Yes! Duke Lu's mansion sent back the marriage certificates of the two families early in the morning, but the grandfather refused to agree. The grandfather felt that the Tong family would be called ungrateful if the two families retired at this time.
But my elder sister didn't want to marry, so she hanged herself secretly in the yard, saying that she was not the daughter of the Tong family, and the whole family cried around her. In the end, my elder brother proposed to marry me, but my father glanced at me. He hesitated and agreed,"
??Then they happily went to comfort the crying Tong Yuyao, while she stood alone in the corner,
??At that moment, she realized clearly that some things cannot be forced.
??Shen Mingjiao rubbed her hair, "What's the big deal? There's a saying, now they despise you in every possible way, but in the future you will make them unattainable."
??Cui Lingling chuckled: "Well, although it's unlikely, it's very refreshing to hear."
??But at this time, Qiu Ju came in to report that someone from Tong's residence came to take Cui Lingling back.
??Shen Mingjiao asked: "Who is here?"
?? "Say it's the eldest son of the family."
??Cui Lingling lowered her head and smiled when she heard this. "It's really strange. Since I returned home, my elder brother has never looked at me directly. Now he knows to come to pick me up!"
??She leaned lazily on the armchair, not wanting to go back at all.
??Shen Mingjiao asked her: "Then what are your plans?"
?? "I don't want to see Tong's family at all now. They want me to go back, they just want me to marry and go to Duke Lu's mansion to celebrate."
??Shen Mingjiao's eyes flickered, "In fact, putting aside these things, it would be a good choice for you to marry into Duke Lu's mansion."
?? Cui Lingling stared at her in surprise, thinking she had heard wrong.
Shen Mingjiao coughed lightly and said: "Don't say anything else, think about it, looking at all kinds of romance stories, all the ones that start with happiness, which ones don't have a big reversal in the end, and in the end, without exception, all the families are happy and the husband and wife are harmonious. !"
??Cui Lingling is very good at focusing on the key points, and she asked with bright eyes: "You mean, what kind of little prince is good-looking? Even better than your highness?"
??Shen Mingjiao paused for a moment, then nodded very positively: "Well, I'm sure it's the type you like."
?? Cui Lingling finally felt better. He stood up, clapped his hands and left the house. She also knew that things couldn't just be dragged on like this, some things had to be faced.
??Although she knew that Cui Lingling had the ability to protect herself, Shen Mingjiao was still a little worried, so she asked Wang Dashan, who was the best in Qinggong, to follow her secretly.
??Cui Lingling left the palace, and saw Mr. Tong standing in front of the carriage waiting for her,
?? Seeing her take so long to come out, he was obviously a little impatient. He thought of something, but forcibly held back.
?? Seeing him, Cui Lingling didn't greet him warmly like before, but got into the carriage without saying a word. Mr. Tong's expression turned ugly. I cursed secretly in my heart for being uneducated!
??Even though he knew that Cui Lingling was his own sister, he still looked down on him from the bottom of his heart. The only sister he admits in his heart is Tong Yuyao, who is smart and gentle.
When I returned to Tong Mansion, it was lunch time. When Cui Lingling stepped into the main courtyard, she saw a family sitting around eating together. It can be seen that it is a bit of fun.
??Cui Lingling's body was almost indiscernible and she paused. Putting aside the so-called illusion of family affection, she only felt a little uncomfortable in the face of these things now.
??She didn't look at any more people, and planned to go back to her room and take a nap first. Master Tong called her to stop, frowned and said: "You have been back to Tong's house for several months, why don't you understand any rules!"
??Cui Lingling remained silent.
?? Master Tong seemed too lazy to waste any more time talking with her, raised his hand and knocked on the table, and said lightly:
?? "I have already made an agreement with Duke Lu's mansion that you will marry me in three days."
?? Tong Yuyao on the side was completely relieved when she heard this. The eyes looking at Cui Lingling were dim.
??Cui Lingling raised her head, stared at Master Tong coldly, and said word by word: "What if... I say I don't want to?"
??Master Tong was stunned for a moment, the Tong family loves rules from top to bottom, so in his cognition, women should bow their heads and be obedient when speaking.
?? After reacting, he was very angry:
?? "I am informing you, not discussing with you,"
??Cui Lingling smiled calmly, and said the same sentence: "But I don't want to!"
?? Tong Da was so angry that his fingers trembled, he grabbed a cup at hand and threw it straight at him:
?? "Things without rules, who taught you to talk to your elders like this!"
??Cui Lingling flexibly dodged sideways, still standing straight,
??She thought calmly in her heart, let the storm come more violently! It also made her completely give up.
?? Madam Tong on the side was also taken aback. She hurriedly stood up, but persuaded Cui Lingling: "What are you doing in a daze? Hurry up and apologize to your father!"
??Cui Lingling looked at Mrs. Tong and asked, "Did mother ever think of me as your daughter?"
??Madam Tong lowered her eyes instinctively, and said softly: "What did you say, you are my daughter."
?? Then she said again: "Don't blame mother, Yao'er is too soft-tempered, and if the young master of Duke Lu's mansion really has good or bad things in the future, she will be a widow for the rest of her life!
??And you didn’t grow up in the mansion since you were a child, and getting married is already difficult. Although the little father-in-law is not in good health, the Duke of Lu’s mansion has a lot of money, at least it can guarantee you food and drink for the rest of your life. "
??She knew it was unfair to do this, but she couldn't help it. Yao'er had never suffered since she was a child, so how could she marry and be a widow?
?? Rao has already guessed, but Cui Lingling's heart is still slightly sour.
??She is still the same sentence: "I don't want to."
?? Then he stopped watching everyone's reactions, and quickly walked back to his room. Tong Da was so angry that he smashed his glass again.
?? Tong Yuyao clutched the handkerchief, lowered her head and said softly:
"Or...I'll marry it! Now that my sister doesn't agree with anything, what if she can't think about it for a while and sneak out of the mansion? If she goes to find Su Wangfei, the reputation of our Tong mansion may be ruined." Damaged?"
??Seeing that she was obviously very scared, but for the sake of the reputation of their Tongfu, they still bravely said this. The two young masters of Tongfu who sat on the side and had not spoken for a while suddenly felt distressed. The third youngest son said:
?? "My sister is just too kind, but this matter is easy to handle. We just need someone to guard her yard and not let her go out."
?? Tong Yuyao lowered her head and picked up the tea with a satisfied hook on the corner of her mouth.
??Cui Lingling went back to the house and lay down on the bed, lying on the pillow in a daze. One side of the window seemed to move, and she lazily raised her lower eyelids.
??At this time, Tong Yuyao opened the door and walked in, sat beside his bed, and whispered softly as always: "Is there something wrong with my sister?"
??Cui Lingling glanced at her indifferently, but said nothing,
?? Tong Yuyao's complexion did not change at all, she continued to hold her hand and said to herself:
?? "You haven't eaten since morning, you must be hungry now, I asked the kitchen to make glutinous rice cakes for you, and I also asked someone to buy this for you, get up and try."
?? After finishing speaking, the servant girl stepped forward, and there was a cup of her favorite milk tea on the tray, but Mrs. Tong despised this vulgar thing and never allowed her to buy it.
??Cui Lingling reached out to pick up the cup of milk tea, put it to her lips through the straw and sniffed it.
?? Tong Yuyao clenched her fingers subconsciously.
??
