Chapter 65 The moment he looked back, Mr. Cui Wu fell in love with this fisherwoman

After some discussion, everyone headed towards Qingsong Courtyard where Old Madam Xu lived.

Old Mrs. Xu was basking in the sun in the yard, and beside her were two girls who were about fourteen or fifteen years old.

One of them poured her tea while the other massaged her legs, serving her very attentively.

Cui Si's eyes twitched.

These two people are none other than the two girls from the Wang family.

One of them is thirteen years old and looks about five or six points like Wang Xiuzhu. She is Wang Xiuzhu’s younger sister Wang Yuzhu. The other is Wang Xiuzhu’s cousin Wang Zhenzhu, who is fifteen years old this year.

Wang Yuzhu is round and smooth, Wang Zhenzhu is slim and graceful, and both of them are good-looking.

These two people were sent to the Wang family after Wang Xiuzhu's incident.

The pretext was to accompany the old lady, but in fact, she wanted to see which one would win the old lady's favor and then marry Cui Jing smoothly.

Old Mrs. Xu secretly resented Wang Xiuzhu for being a good-for-nothing and also resented the Wang family for being incompetent.

But she didn't follow the usual path. Instead of driving people away, she treated them like a spinning top.

Everyone stepped forward to pay their respects. Old Lady Xu was surprised that they came together, but she waved her hand to let the two daughters of the Wang family leave, and then led everyone into the bright hall.

"Please sit down."

"Thank you, Grandma."

Everyone found a place to sit down. A maid brought hot tea. Old Madam Xu took a sip and asked a few people, "What brings you here together?"

"And Lao Ba, weren't you in the academy? Why did you come back? Are you itching for trouble?"

The Cui family is divided into three branches, and the academy has always been the business of the second branch. Originally, Cui Jing should have taken over in the future.

But Cui Jing and Cui Yi followed Yan Xingchuan to conquer the world, so at Cui Si's reminder, Master Cui brought Cui Changyou to the academy.

For this, Cui Si was glared at several times by Cui Changyou.

Cui Si didn't care. It was Cui Changyou who ruined his life in his previous life, so she decided to let him stay in Xianyang City.

"Do you think I'm that out of line?" Cui Changyou said helplessly, "I came back for something important. It's a serious matter!"

"Alright, alright, I'll see what's important to you. If you don't explain it, don't blame me for being merciless with my cane today."

Cui Changyou: "..."

He looked at Cui Si sadly.

Cui Si coughed and then said, "Grandmother, we are here today because of Fifth Uncle's matter."

Upon hearing this, Cui Hao immediately stood up and knelt in the hall:

"Grandmother, the King of Northern Yan wants to arrange a marriage for me with General Shen, and my clan has agreed to have me listed in the family tree. I've been thinking... thinking about whether I can bring my mother back."

"I know you don't like my mother. She comes from a poor family and is really not worthy of my father."

Old Madam Xu's face darkened, and she looked at Cui Hao with a cold look in her eyes: "Do I dislike her because of her poor background?"

Cui Hao quickly corrected himself, "No, no, you don't like her because... because you think she killed your father."

Master Cui Wu, Cui Changyun, was so handsome and elegant when he was young, with both good character and appearance, just like Cui Jing today.

Old Mrs. Xu has always been proud of her son. In her opinion, her son should marry a dignified and virtuous wife like Mrs. Cui who comes from a prominent family, and live a harmonious life with her husband.

But Mr. Cui Wu happened to fall in love with a fishing girl who rowed a boat.

The river was clear and shallow on both sides. A fisherwoman in a green skirt was rowing the boat with a long pole to help him cross the river.

The wind blows through the reeds, blowing away the black hair, and a song of "Song of the Yue People" slowly sounds, singing softly and sighing.

In the end, only a sigh remained, 'There are trees on the mountain and branches on the trees, I love you, do you know?'

At a certain moment of looking back, Mr. Cui Wu fell in love with this fisherman girl.

He took her back to Cui's house, but Cui disagreed, so he married her outside by worshipping heaven and earth.

With heaven and earth as witnesses, we make a promise to each other until we are old.

Later, because she didn't want to delay his future, the fisherwoman left him. After that, she quietly gave birth to Cui Hao and died not long after.

When Mr. Cui Wu went to look for his old friend, the grave was still new, with only a young child left.

The woman died when he loved her the most, which made him extremely sad, resentful and depressed. He died of illness a few years later.

The brilliant and talented Mr. Cui Wu of the Cui family died because of love, which is really a pity.

The reason why Old Lady Xu hated the fisherwoman so much and disliked Cui Hao was precisely because of the death of Master Cui Wu.

Her son died because of a woman, and she had to see him off at an old age.

How can I not hate? How can I not blame?

There was nothing wrong with Mr. Cui Wu falling in love with the fisherwoman, and there was nothing wrong with Mrs. Xu's hatred and dislike.

There was nothing wrong with Cui Hao wanting his mother to marry into the Cui family openly and reunite with his father after his death.

The only problem is the gap in this era. The love between a young man from a noble family and a commoner is not accepted by his family.

But Master Cui Wu was too young at that time and had no ability to resist the family.

And then... she died, and she could never wait for the day when he would come to take her back.

Mrs. Xu sneered, "Since you know this, why are you still saying these things?

You should know that as long as I am here, I will never allow her to enter the gate of my Cui family."

"It's already thanks to your father that I can raise you well in the Cui family."

"Alright, you all came here today to discuss this, right? No need to continue. I don't agree. Let's go now, everyone!"

After saying this, Mrs. Xu got up and left, not wanting to talk to them anymore.

"Grandmother." Cui Si stepped forward and knelt, then grabbed her sleeve.

"My uncle, Ah Hao, and I understand your feelings very well. You must be deeply saddened to learn that Fifth Uncle has passed away."

"You are very kind in wanting to keep Ah Hao here, and Ah Hao has always been very grateful to you.

If Fifth Uncle were still alive, knowing that Ah Hao had grown up peacefully and now had such a good marriage, I think he would be very happy.”

"But think about it carefully. When Fifth Uncle was alive, he always hoped to be recognized by the Cui family and to be married to Fifth Aunt in a proper way.

Even before his death, he was still thinking about reuniting with his fifth aunt.

"But Cui disagreed. They couldn't be together in life, and they couldn't see each other in death. How pitiful that would be."

"If you don't do it for anything else, we won't ask you to forgive anyone today. Just do it for your fifth uncle.

May he fulfill his life's wish, and may he be able to meet his beloved woman again in the afterlife, and live in peace and tranquility forever."

Cui Changyou nodded repeatedly: "That's right, mother. Before his death, Fifth Brother was still regretting this matter and felt sorry for his wife. Please consider it as fulfilling Fifth Brother's wish."

"The King of Northern Yan is currently arranging a marriage between Ah Hao and General Shen, and the clan wants to include Ah Hao in the family tree. This is a rare and great opportunity..."
