If he were not already the eldest son and a widow at home, how would it be his turn for Old Cheng to care about him? Moreover, he was taking a concubine, and Old Cheng even blushed for Cui Xin.
Cheng Dabeard has always been self-aware. What he covets is not the behavior of other people's daughters, but the surname.
Of course, Lao Cheng also understood that what Cui Xin valued was not only Lao Cheng's title, but also the fact that he was a descendant of the Cheng family in Qizhou. I think he was also a famous family in Qizhou back then.
Marriage with the main branch of the Cui family in Qinghe may be a bit far behind, but marrying a concubine and a side branch should have been appropriate at the time. After all, the Cheng family was also considered a local wealthy family.
Nowadays, many people from the Qinghe Cui family have moved to the south of the Yangtze River. There are only two or three kittens left in Hebei, which cannot be compared with the Qinghe Cui family back then.
In fact, it is similar to the time when the warrior Xun married the Yang family. The dragon was tricked by shrimps in the shallow water, and the down-and-out phoenix was inferior to the chicken. Feng shui took turns, and it came to my house this year.
In general, if this thing goes through, Lao Cheng feels that he has taken advantage of it. After all, most of the Cui family in Qinghe are still there, but their influence is no longer in the north.
However, he was the only one left in Lao Cheng's family, with no relatives or friends, and no old friends. That is to say, Lao Cheng had a good attitude, otherwise he would not be alive now and would have starved to death when he was a child.
…………
Lao Cheng thought about his wonderful life for a while. His wife, Sun, looked at him like a dog and finally couldn't help but sent her daughter out and asked.
"What did Uncle Luo say? Did he hit you again?"
As soon as the two questions came out, Cheng Dabeard's face darkened a lot, and the broth in his mouth suddenly lost its aroma.
Looking at his expression, Mrs. Sun smiled, "Been beaten again? This time it worked, no slap in the face, you said so. After so many years, we all have children in groups, why are you two brothers causing trouble?
?
It's great to get together to drink and reminisce about old times, but you have to use fists and kicks, and you're not young anymore. What if you break it? Why don't you just give in to him, or else... when you become an in-law, why don't you let the children see it?
Got a joke?"
Cheng Dabeard wanted to feel angry, but now he was too lazy to move, so he could only say feebly: "You are a woman who knows how to think of good things. Our Jinzhu family is good, but she is several years older than Luo Dalang.
Moreover, the Luo family has such a big family business now. Do you know that it is a high price for us to come and propose marriage? I... I went to drink with Luo Sanlang, and I wanted to speak several times...
Alas, you are a woman who doesn't know. I can't say this when I see his proud and arrogant look. How about... we can talk about this later?"
Mrs. Sun's face visibly drooped, she snatched the soup bowl from her husband's hand, and put it on the table without caring about the dripping juice.
"You're just going to be beaten when you go out together? Are you too embarrassed to say anything? We mothers have been following you around for so many years, not to mention me. Have you ever thought about it for the sake of the children?
All day long, I hang out with a group of bad friends, drink wine and eat meat, and everyone calls themselves a hero... Now, where are those people? Are their family records still alive?
Let’s just talk about Qin Shubao. None of you are an opponent of that kind of mind, but if he makes a mistake at that time, he will be gone. If Jiajuan hadn’t followed us, he would probably have died in Tongguan. Now there are orphans and widowed mothers. If it weren’t for Uncle Luo and us.
My family would often bring something to support me, but I would have starved to death long ago.
That is also your sworn brother, and the fate will be there. If our children also end up in that situation, I will not be finished with you even if I die."
Women are inherently weak, but motherhood makes them strong.
On weekdays, the bearded man does not do any serious work and is away from home all day, so Sun also came here. When she saw her husband, she would only complain a few times and rarely get angry.
But once it comes to children, it's different, especially when her daughter reaches the age of marriage, it becomes a worry for her.
The problem also lies with Cheng Dabeard. This guy is a gangster. He has never been a good person in Luoyang. At best, he is the Wagang brothers, and at worst, he is a group of thieves.
At that time, even if someone wanted to marry her, the Sun family would not do it. A group of guys who drank alcohol today might lose their heads tomorrow. The Sun family also came from an official family, how could they dare to give their daughter to those families?
Now that he has moved to Chang'an, his life has become more stable, but the nature of the people Cheng Dahuzi associates with has not changed much. It is very difficult to find a good family that makes people feel at ease.
In particular, Cheng Dabeard also had his own ideas. He would not be happy to get married if someone's official position was junior, but he would not be able to get married if they were senior.
Tuoba Shou is actually the most outstanding person among the people he has made friends with now, but he is not a stable person. His surname is Tuoba. He is an authentic Xianbei person. Now he is not the Xianbei people in those days when they were so ruthless.
People with a little wealth don't want to have anything to do with them. Even if you change your last name, it's still the same.
Otherwise, Mrs. Sun would not have thought about the eldest son of the Luo Shixin family.
In fact, what Cheng Dabeard said is right. His daughter is older than others, and there is also a big gap in family life.
But having said that, you have to try whether you can succeed or not. When her husband went out and didn't even receive a message, just because of his old face, it naturally made Mrs. Sun extremely angry.
The words were spoken so harshly that every sentence seemed to hit Old Cheng in the waist. Cheng's bearded face couldn't keep it off and he was furious.
If this had happened when he was young, Lao Cheng wouldn't have had to think about it, he would have slapped him in the face, and the Sun family would have seen the sky full of stars, but now Cheng Dabeard was no longer at home.
The main reason is that Mr. Sun suffered from a serious illness and his body weakened suddenly, and someone might die if he took action. In addition, Lao Cheng was on a downhill road, and his confidence was not so strong, so he would not show off his authority in front of his wife and children.
Speaking of which, this can barely be regarded as one of Lao Cheng's strengths. There are so many people who are cowards outside, but they are not him when they come home. There are also some guys with dragons and tigers who show their teeth and claws outside, and even more so when they come home.
Going from bad to worse, there really is no need to explain the life of a scumbag.
…………
Cheng Dabeard was stabbed in the painful spot by his wife, and after drinking, he became angry and showed signs of losing his mind.
It happened that Cheng Jinzhu poked her head in to take a look. She knew what her father was doing and was listening with her ears open. When she saw her parents were about to argue again, she quickly took a look. With sharp eyes, she stared at her father as if to warn him not to do anything.
Take action.
"This star really wants to retire"
She also hid a short stick behind her. Now that she has grown up and is proficient in bow and horse, she can still pick up the stick and hit her father twice to calm him down.
The children have not seen their father's face all day long, and it is obvious who they are close to.
Fortunately, no family tragedy occurred in the end. Cheng Dashu reluctantly gave his daughter some face, forced out an ugly smile, and waved her daughter over.
"I ask you, do you really fall in love with Luo Dalang? Luo Dalang is studying with the prince, and he must be scheming now. Your third uncle Luo is not a good person. If you marry him, I will not protect you. You
