Chapter 117 It...seems like it doesn’t want to be held and close to you
The setting sun was like blood, dyeing half of the sky red as it slanted down. The sky turned darker inch by inch, and the father and son who were supposed to be in the military camp returned home.
The sound of horse hooves gradually got closer and closer.
Cui Yang's face was cold and hard, and he dismounted from his horse, his armor glowing with cold light.
"Dad."
Cui Bai was about to catch up.
Although Mrs. Wu never cried in front of Cui Yang, she only mentioned the past in tactful words. However, she tried to evoke Cui Yang's reluctance to leave his dead wife. These few words were repeated over and over again.
——You are a good son-in-law. I have always known you. I haven’t seen you for a long time. Knowing that you are busy, I specially brought you your favorite snacks.
dessert?
A rough guy like Cui Yang doesn't like sweet and greasy food. I'm afraid the original wife likes to eat it.
——I always feel sad when I see you. Maybe because I am getting older, I always remember the scene of you standing next to each other when you accompany Ah Huan back home.
Cui Bo felt unhappy when he heard this.
The man has passed away, remembering human nature, but Cui Yang is already married. If Mrs. Wu is really virtuous and knowledgeable, why would she bother to come here to talk about these things?
——It's just a pity that Ah Huan's pregnancy was dangerous. At that time, you were fighting on the battlefield. She held my hand and kept calling your name until she died.
As expected, Cui Yang's smile faded a lot as he said this.
"Did my mother-in-law go to the house? Or did the servants in the house not treat her well?"
Cui Bo listened to Mrs. Wu expressionlessly.
——Your wife manages the back house. How can a lady from Yongchang Earl’s Mansion do anything wrong? She manages the Hou Mansion very well. Everyone in the house listens to her as the mistress, and Brother Yun has always been informed.
How can a decent child be poorly treated?
——It's just a pity that I paid a hasty visit and didn't send in my greetings. I haven't met Mrs. Cui yet.
As long as you are not stupid, you can also hear that Mrs. Wu is accusing Cui Xuanshi in her words.
Mrs. Wu once again explained the reason in a evasive manner. From her words, it was just a slave who made his own decisions, and the sky was higher than the sky.
But she was just a kind elder who went there specially with guilt. She also casually called Wu Shaoyin beside her to say hello to Cui Yang.
It can be seen that his heart is clear.
Cui Yang didn't say anything for a long time and was as cold and hard as ever. But Cui Bai's heart sank inch by inch.
Even if Mrs. Wu mentioned a flower, Cui Bai would not suspect that Cui Xuanshi and Cui Yun were at all wrong.
Even if the two of them were really at fault, it was Mrs. Wu who had done something wrong.
At this moment, Cui Bo looked at Cui Yang's back with his thoughts on his mind and said in a calm voice.
"What kind of person is my mother? After all these years after joining the Hou family, my father can't find a single typo. My second brother is not a troublemaker. I should carefully consider what is right and what is wrong. Don't hurt the couple with just a few words."
Like father and son."
Cui Yang paused. He was always strict in front of his son. Without leaving a word, he walked straight towards Cui Xuan's yard.
Cui Bai clenched his hands tightly under his sleeves. In the end, he chased after him inappropriately.
———
Cui Xuan looked tired and was wearing a thin summer shirt, ready to take an early rest. As soon as Fang's mother blew out the light in the room, she heard the greetings from the servants outside in the distance. Her hands trembled, feeling uneasy.
"Lady."
Cui Xuanshi closed her eyes: "It came so fast."
Cui Yang had deliberately avoided her these days, but now he came back on a day when he shouldn't have, fearing that he would question her.
But she didn't seem surprised. There was even a voice passing by her ears and said three words.
--Knew it.
She stood up and put on her shoes: "Let's hold the lamp."
Fang's mother clicked on the booklet: "The old lady and the madam are on your side in this matter. After all, the Marquis is still a reasonable person. I'm afraid I don't know the whole story. Don't get angry with the Marquis..."
Before she could finish speaking, Cui Yang stepped inside.
Fang's mother kept silent. There were only two lamps lit in the room. She was about to light more when she heard Cui Yang said.
"Go down."
Cui Yang was a military general, and he always kept his temper when faced with the soldiers he accepted. Even if he deliberately tried to be gentle in front of Cui Xuan, it would not help.
Fang's mother's heart trembled, she looked at Cui Xuanshi worriedly, and could only step back.
"Is the Marquis here to ask questions?"
Cui Yang pursed her lips tightly. She stared at Cui Xuan holding the huozhezi he took from Fang's mother, and lit the lamp slowly and slowly. The room gradually lit up.
He was eloquent on the battlefield and never repeated the words he cursed at the enemy and thieves, but when he saw Cui Xuanshi, he was very clumsy.
"Are you angry?"
Cui Xuanshi: "Shouldn't I be angry?"
Cui Yang:...that's it again.
Even though Cui Xuan gave birth to two children, she took good care of herself. She had a baby face, and she looked young even at her age. Now her dark hair is loose. Standing in front of Cui Yang, she looks very petite.
Cui Xuanshi's tone was calm and gentle: "Does the Marquis think that I should give way to the younger generation?"
Cui Yang felt that there was something wrong with the problem, and he kept going straight. Then he read the sages' books in his spare time today...
He said with a cold face and a serious face: "Not bad."
A smile appeared on Cui Xuanshi's face.
It could be seen that he responded correctly, Cui Yang couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
He hurried back in a hurry, specifically to see Cui Xuanshi. Cui Xuanshi was already unhappy with him, if this happened again...
Fortunately, Cui Xuanshi didn't take it to heart. That's right, she has always been gentle and decent.
"It is true that Mrs. Wu has been wronged, and you have also been wronged, but in the end, she is the elder, so why not be patient?"
Seeing Cui Xuanshi's smile not diminishing, Cui Yang relaxed and said again.
"Girl of the Wu family, what do you think?"
Cui Xuan couldn't bear the matter involving her son and immediately said coldly.
"The Marquis has agreed not to interfere in Brother Bai's marriage, but now he is thinking about Brother Yun's marriage again?"
"I will never consider a girl from the Wu family as my daughter-in-law."
"If the Marquis really thinks it's good, why don't you divorce me and marry someone from the Wu family?"
Cui Yang was flustered, but his face became darker and darker, and his eyebrows were drawn into a tight line.
He seemed to have made Cui Xuan angry again.
————
Outside the hospital, Cui Bai was anxious.
"Brother."
Cui Yun came slowly.
In his arms, he held a clean but stiff cub that looked helpless.
Cui Bai:???
"When did you get the cat?"
Cui Yun: "On a whim."
Cui Bai's lips moved up and down.
"It... doesn't seem to want to be held close to you."
This speaks to Shen Hua's innermost feelings. She is a girl after all, how can she be held by a foreign man? How unbecoming is this!
She was about to nod angrily.
I heard Cui Yun chuckle.
"Xue Tuan doesn't want to?"
The man's slender, jade-like hands stroked the cat's fluffy fur along his back.
The refreshing smell of the young man was on the tip of Shen Hua's nose. Cui Yun's touch made her feel ashamed and angry, but the cat's habit made her purr comfortably.
On the one hand, the girl was being reserved, but on the other hand, she wanted Cui Yun to continue to follow her hair. Under the entanglement between the two, the unconcealed excitement seemed to be magnified several times.
Cui Yun lazily said: "Come, smile at my brother."
Shen Hua: "..."
Under duress, she reluctantly bent her wet lips towards Cui Bai.
Cui Yun smiled lowly: "Look, it is quite willing."
