Cui Wan was startled and couldn't figure out what Ye Qingning meant, so she didn't agree rashly.
Mrs. Zheng's face darkened: "You have already made an appointment to get married, and you are still thinking about running around without any rules."
Ye Qingning was scolded for a few words, but he didn't feel aggrieved. Instead, he said smoothly: "I'm worried that my sister-in-law will be lonely when she goes back alone. We can talk to each other. Since my mother thinks it's inconvenient for me to accompany my sister-in-law, let me follow my sister-in-law."
Sister-in-law, please go to Cui Mansion."
…
Ye Qinglan glared at Ye Qingning without any trace. She had a bad idea!
Ye Qingning winked playfully. It's a rare opportunity to go to the Cui Mansion, so you have to seize the opportunity to please Mr. He. Sixth Sister, it's for your own good, so you don't need to thank me too much!
Mrs. Zheng looked at the eyebrows of the two girls and couldn't help but feel dumb. Whatever, it was just a small matter, so just follow Ye Qingning's wishes.
"That's fine, Sister Lan can accompany Ms. Cui back to Cui's Mansion in the afternoon!" Ms. Zheng's tone was indifferent, but she could not refuse.
Ye Qinglan reluctantly agreed.
Cui Wan was in a confused mood and had no intention of thinking too much. After the coachman prepared the carriage and Ye Qinglan accompanied her on the carriage, Cui Wan realized Ye Qingning's intention.
"Don't worry, Tenth Sister," Cui Wan smiled and reassured: "Cui Mansion is in Yong'an Lane. It's not far from here. It will take more than half an hour at most. You just want to go out and relax."
The words are very subtle, but the implication is very clear. Although Cui Yu has a good impression of you, the Cui Mansion will never do anything that is difficult for others, so there is no need to be cautious.
Under Cui Wan's kind and understanding gaze, Ye Qinglan suddenly felt a trace of guilt.
The Cui family is a noble and scholarly family. Cui Yu is young and smart, and is the only son of the eldest son. His future is unlimited. The Cui family wants to find a well-matched daughter-in-law, and there are many candidates. Why does she promote herself so high?
Does anyone have to be her?
When did she start to be so proud and reserved? Is it because she has lived more than twenty years of modern life than others that she looks down on people of this era from the bottom of her heart? Or is it because of Cui Yu's obvious affection for her?
Didn't you take Cui Yu seriously from the bottom of your heart?
No matter what it was, it was enough for her to be ashamed and reflect on herself...
Cui Wan saw her lowering her eyelids and not saying a word. He couldn't understand her thoughts for a while, and she was upset. She was not in the mood to talk for a while. There was silence in the carriage. Only the sound of horse hooves and the wooden wheel rolling forward could be heard.
After an unknown amount of time, Ye Qinglan finally calmed down. She cheered up and looked at Cui Wan: "Sister-in-law, how long has it been since you returned to your parents' home?"
Cui Wan composed herself and responded with a smile: "I haven't been back for about half a year." After getting married, she became someone else's daughter-in-law and couldn't go out easily. It was even more difficult to go back to her parents' home. If it hadn't been an emergency this time, Mrs. Zheng wouldn't have been so easy.
He allowed her to return to Cui Mansion.
Seeing the longing and joy in Cui Wan's eyes, Ye Qinglan also felt an unspeakable feeling in her heart.
After time travel, she quickly accepted the reality and adapted well to the current life. But she never really integrated into this identity. She thought everything was too beautiful and too simple. She avoided it.
Ye Yuanzhou, to deal with Xue's difficulties and find a good marriage for herself, she has always believed that she can do it.
But after seeing Cui Wan's situation, she realized that she was a little naive.
This was not the world she was familiar with. Women's status was low and they had no autonomy at all in matters of marriage. To say the least, even if she married the man she liked, she would still have to deal with a lot of troubles. "The two lived happily and peacefully from then on.
"Life" only exists at the end of fairy tales. In real life, getting married only means the beginning of a new journey...
There was another moment of silence.
Seeing that Ye Qinglan was in a daze, Cui Wan felt strange in her heart. She asked with a smile: "What's wrong with you today? Why haven't you spoken?" You've been acting weird ever since you got on the carriage.
Of course, Ye Qinglan would not tell the truth, and responded vaguely: "I have never been to Cui Mansion, so I feel a little nervous!"
Cui Wan burst into laughter: "As long as I'm here, there's nothing to worry about." Her tone was confident and her eyes were bright.
At this time, Cui Wan is subtly different from Cui, the eldest daughter-in-law of the eldest daughter-in-law of Changyuan Bo's Mansion. Although she still has the same face, her whole person is much more confident and lively. Is it because the Cui Mansion is getting closer and closer?
?
Ye Qinglan was infected by Cui Wan's rare good mood, and responded with a smile: "Okay, then I'll ask my cousin to take care of me."
Cui Wan pursed her lips and chuckled, and couldn't help but lift the curtain and take a look outside. Ye Qinglan also took advantage of the opportunity to look at the scenery outside the carriage. Although it was just a fleeting glance, a typical casual glance, her mood quickly improved.
.
Forget it, don't torment yourself with random thoughts. As Cui Wan said, if you rarely go out of the house, just treat it as a way to relax.
The carriage turned a corner and drove into an alley.
The alley is spacious and clean, and from time to time it passes the gate of a mansion. It seems that this is Yong'an Lane, one of the four lanes and seven lanes.
After Cui Wan entered this alley, she felt relaxed. She smiled and said to Ye Qinglan: "This is Yong'an Lane. Don't underestimate this place. Although it is not as good as Fusion Fang, Qinghe Fang is full of Dukes' mansions, but those who live here
They are all from famous families in the capital. Look, the Cui Mansion is right there!" The last sentence revealed deep joy.
Ye Qinglan looked in the direction of Cui Wan's finger.
The Cui family is also a scholarly family that has been passed down for hundreds of years. There have been three Hanlin bachelors in several generations, and one was once a Taifu. The children of the Cui family are very strict in their upbringing. Even the women study and practice calligraphy, and their family tradition is very upright.
It is also for this reason that Changyuan Bofu married Cui Fu. Cui Wan married Ye Yuanwei, which can be said to be a perfect match.
After seeing the grandeur of the duke's mansion, Cui Mansion is naturally a little inferior. There is only one main entrance, the open space in front of the door is not big, and there are no ostentatious stone lions. But in Cui Wan's eyes, this must be the best place in the world.
.
The carriage stopped in front of the door, and the coachman handed over the name card. When the porter saw the name card, his face suddenly lit up: "The young lady is back!"
Before he finished speaking, the door was pushed open by two boys. One of them ran quickly to report that He had gone.
Cui Wan was somewhat uncontrollably excited, and got out of the carriage with the help of the maid. Ye Qinglan sat for a long time, and her hands and feet were a little weak. After getting off the carriage, she moved her wrist slightly under the cover of her sleeves.
After waiting for a while, a well-dressed lady came out to greet her. It was Cui Wan's mother, He!
Mother and daughter met with a lot of intimacy and joy. He took Cui Wan's hand, looked up and down, and asked with a smile: "You kid, why didn't you tell me in advance that you were coming back?"
Cui Wan pursed her lips and smiled: "I came back suddenly because I wanted to give my mother a surprise!"
He smiled, but her heart sank slightly. Cui Wan's sudden return must be more than just a surprise for her. What happened?
Cui Wan turned around and smiled: "Mom, this is the tenth sister. You have met her several times, so you should know her."
Of course we knew each other, and the impression was still very deep. He smiled incomprehensibly and looked at Ye Qinglan.
Ye Qinglan hurriedly stepped forward and saluted and said hello: "I've met my aunt." Her gestures were generous and her face was full of smiles, which made people feel good from the bottom of their hearts.
He nodded with a smile and led Cui Wan and Ye Qinglan towards the mansion.
Ye Qinglan followed Cui Wan and looked at everything around her calmly. After seeing the centuries-old princely families such as Dingguo Gongfu and Zhengguo Gongfu, her horizons were much higher than before. Compared with Changyuan, Cui Mansion
The uncle's mansion is not as good as it is, and naturally it cannot be compared with the Duke's mansion. The scholarly family that has been passed down for many years has its own heritage.
Everywhere you look, there are exquisite rockeries, flowing water and strange rocks. The winding paths under your feet lead to quiet places. After a few steps, you turn a corner, and then your eyes suddenly light up. What you see is always a different scenery. You can see it.
A lot of thought and effort went into the construction of Cui Mansion.
Seeing Ye Qinglan's concentration, Cui Wan also felt that her face was bright, and she smiled softly: "This is the mansion built by my great-grandfather when he was still alive."
Cui Wan's great-grandfather was a very famous Confucian scholar who later became the crown prince. After the crown prince succeeded to the throne, he devoted himself to assisting the new emperor until he retired at the age of sixty-five. The Cui Mansion was built at that time. The Cui family
The reputation of the door also reached its peak at that time.
In recent years, the descendants of the Cui family have all entered official positions through the imperial examination. Although they have not produced any first- or second-rank officials, they have produced two Hanlin bachelors. There are also five or six of the Cui family's children who have passed the imperial examination.
In terms of words, Cui Mansion definitely deserves it!
In Cui Wan's generation, the He family had no children. Only Cui Yu, the son of a concubine, had been raised strictly. Therefore, Cui Yu was not arrogant at all and studied very hard.
Ye Qingning often talks about these things in Ye Qinglan's ears, so Ye Qinglan is no stranger to these things.
Soon they arrived at Mr. He's yard. Cui Wan had a lot to say to Mr. He, but it was really not convenient for Ye Qinglan to hear these words.
Cui Wan glanced at Ye Qinglan hesitantly.
Ye Qinglan was so sensible that she immediately smiled and said: "I have never been to Cui Mansion. I wonder if I can walk around in the garden?"
He immediately smiled and said: "Of course it's no problem." She casually ordered her mother in charge to accompany Ye Qinglan around the house.
The mother in charge agreed with a smile, and led the way diligently. Although she was not sure about Ye Qinglan's identity, since she could come back with Cui Wan, and He had to look at her differently, she was definitely not an ordinary guest. She had to serve her well, Qian
Don't neglect it.
Ye Qinglan wandered around the Cui Mansion aimlessly. Ruixue and Guiyuan would chat with her from time to time to relieve her boredom, and there were beautiful views to enjoy, so she was not feeling lonely.
Walking to a pavilion, Ye Qinglan stopped and admired the exquisite pavilion carefully.
"Ten, ten sisters!" A clear young voice suddenly sounded from behind, and the voice was full of surprise: "Is it you?" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes.
