Chapter 49: If the Cui family refuses to marry, what does it have to do with me?

Yan Xingchuan was caught off guard by these words and was stunned for a moment.

He had already told the people from the second branch of the Cui family that he wanted to marry Cui Si, and they also said they would consider it.

Considering his status and the pressure of justice, Yan Xingchuan felt that there was a 90% chance that the second branch of the Cui family would agree.

But what does it mean that Cui Jing pushed Cui Wuniang to him now?

Did you reject him?

Yan Xingchuan clenched his fingers slightly in his sleeves.

If she rejected him, who would Cui Si marry?

Is it Jiang Cinian?

Thinking of this, Yan Xingchuan felt as if a fire was burning in his heart, burning him to the point where he almost lost all his sanity and wanted to destroy everything.

"Cui San..." Yan Xingchuan clenched his teeth, the coldness in his eyes no longer concealed, "He's so brave!"

When Mrs. Cui saw him suddenly get angry, she turned pale with fright and froze there, not daring to move.

Yan Xingchuan glanced at her coldly, "Didn't Madam Cui ask me who I had my eye on? I have my eye on Cui Liuniang! If the Cui family is capable, they will marry Cui Liuniang to me."

Yan Xingchuan didn't want to force her to marry, but he would not give his wife away to anyone else.

He had given the Cui family a chance and had reasoned with them. Since they didn't agree, they shouldn't blame him for robbing them.

Mrs. Cui was stunned and a little confused.

Yan Xingchuan actually fell in love with Cui Si?

Is it really fate that Yan Xingchuan is going to marry Cui Si because he likes Cui Si?

But......

"But Liu Niang is engaged."

"It doesn't matter, it's an engagement but not a marriage." Even if it's an engagement, he will still snatch it back.

"Besides, I believe in the loyalty of the Cui family. They will definitely help me solve my problems."

After hearing this, Mrs. Cui wanted to ask him:

How do you expect Cui to be loyal?

Do you want to break up the marriage of the girl from the clan and send her to you?

How can you behave like a wise and virtuous ruler by acting like this?

Yan Xingchuan continued, "Madam Cui, please go back and discuss this with your clansmen. I have accepted the Cui clan's surrender, their demands, and their invitations."

"Of Cui Si Niang and Cui Liu Niang, this prince has his eye on Cui Liu Niang. If the Cui family refuses to marry Cui Liu Niang to me, then it cannot be considered that I have broken my promise to the Cui family."

Yan Xingchuan was very angry when he received the invitation card for "one wife and one concubine". He was annoyed that the Cui family had the audacity to want Cui Si to be a concubine.

But now he was very grateful for that invitation. He did not take a concubine but only married a wife, and he chose Cui Si. The reason was clear.

Mrs. Cui was just surprised that Yan Xingchuan took a fancy to Cui Si, but now she was so frightened that her face turned pale on the spot.

She asked anxiously, "Does the King of Northern Yan mean... that he won't marry my daughter, Cui?"

Yan Xingchuan tapped the edge of the table with his fingers and reminded her, "Madam Cui, it's not that I don't want to marry. It's that among the invitations I received, there were only Cui Si Niang and Cui Liu Niang. I chose Cui Liu Niang. If the Cui family refuses to marry, what is it to me?"

"But...but Liu Niang is engaged!" Mrs. Cui's face became a little tense.

"That's the Cui family's fault. How can they write the name of a girl who's already engaged on a name card?"

"But, when I wrote that, Liu Niang wasn't engaged yet."

"That means you, the Cui family, didn't discuss it. How come you didn't know your daughter was going to marry me?"

Mrs. Cui's lips were trembling and cold sweat was breaking out on her forehead.

She didn't dare mention that it was she and Cui Yun who wanted to plot against Cui Si. The second branch of the Cui family had no idea about the name card. It was only after they found out that they hastily arranged the marriage.

From what Yan Xingchuan said, he had set his eyes on Cui Si, and if she didn't marry him, he wouldn't marry any other girl from the Cui family.

And they are right. I have seen the business cards submitted by you, Cui, and I have also selected them.

If your Cui family has promised your daughter to someone else and doesn't want to marry me, what does it have to do with me?

Thinking of this, Mrs. Cui felt that her vision was getting darker and she almost vomited blood.

Madam Cui suppressed her rapidly beating heartbeat and couldn't help but plead, "King of Northern Yan, even if the Cui family is at fault in this matter, considering their surrender, can't you...can't you be flexible?"

Chen Mo said from the side: "Madam Cui is wrong again. Our master is very happy about the Cui family's surrender and also intends to make use of the Cui family.

The Cui family offered their contributions to Pingzhou, and the Lord agreed to marry a Cui daughter as his queen.

"Mrs. Cui, everything should be done in moderation. Don't be too greedy."

"Instead of spending this time begging the Lord for mercy and forgiveness, Madam Cui should go home and discuss with her family how to marry Madam Cui Liu to the Lord. Wouldn't that solve everything?"

"The queen is still Cui's daughter."

Mrs. Cui's face turned pale. If Yan Xingchuan was only willing to marry Cui Si, he could only find a way to marry Cui Si to him.

"If the King of Northern Yan also means this, then please allow me to go back and discuss this with my family."

"Go ahead."

Mrs. Cui bowed and took her leave. As soon as she walked out the door, her body went limp and she almost fell to the ground. In the end, she had to let the maid beside her help her leave.

Chen Mo turned to look at Yan Xingchuan: "Master, is it not a good idea to do this?"

In the end, marriage is a matter of mutual consent.

In the current situation, it is obvious that the second branch of the Cui family is unwilling, or Cui Si is unwilling. Yan Xingchuan said this, which clearly means that he wants the Cui family to put pressure on Cui Si and force her to marry him.

Yan Xingchuan glanced at him coldly: "Are you willing to be 'bad', or give your wife to someone else?"

If possible, he also hoped that Cui Si would marry him willingly.

But he couldn't stay in Xianyang City for long, and he didn't have time to waste with her. The most appropriate way was to snatch her away.

After they get married, he will treat her better and better. Even if she is reluctant at the beginning, she will definitely realize how good he is in the future.

It will get better after waiting...

When Chen Mo heard him call her "his wife", he was silent for a moment. He knew that Yan Xingchuan had already regarded Cui Si as his own wife, so he could not persuade him anymore. He could only give him some advice on how to take this wife home.

Mrs. Cui returned home and discussed with the head of the Cui family. In the end, she had no choice but to agree to Yan Xingchuan's request. Then the couple went to the second house together.

When they arrived, Cui Si and Cui Hao were brewing peach blossom wine in the yard.

Pick the best peach blossoms, wash them with mountain spring water, dry them, and then cut them in half.

One part took the brewed wine, added peach blossoms, sealed the jar, and buried it under the sycamore tree in the yard.

One portion is mixed with steamed glutinous rice and added with yeast to make glutinous rice peach blossom wine.

Cui Hao took a small shovel and buried the wine under the tree, saying:

"When my sister gets married, we'll get the wine out and have a few drinks together as sisters."
