Chapter 459 Thoughts
"As long as Third Sister is willing to help me stay in the capital." Cui Rulin said to Cui Rumei with a smile: "As long as I stay in the capital, I won't go back and tell Grandmother anything. Don't you agree, Third Sister?"
Cui Rumei was surprised when she heard this and asked, "You want to stay in the capital?"
"What's with that expression, Third Sister?" Cui Rumei's surprised look made Cui Rulin a little dissatisfied: "Why, Third Sister, do you think I can't stay in the capital?"
At this time, Cui Rumei also reacted: "Fourth sister, do you mean to stay in the capital this time and get married here?"
"Why, can't I?" Cui Rulin pouted and asked dissatisfiedly, "My second sister was able to marry into the capital, and marry so well, why can't I? I don't think I'm any worse than my second sister."
"But..." Cui Rumei said anxiously, "This time, only the two of us came to the capital with my uncles. My parents aren't here. How can we arrange a marriage on our own? It's not good to ask my aunt, my second aunt, or my cousin to take care of it, right?"
Not to mention my aunt, even my eldest and second aunts, the aunts from the next family, can't just help them arrange marriages without notifying our parents, right?
Everyone knows that if the search is successful, everyone will be happy. If the search is unsuccessful and problems arise in the future, it will be troublesome.
Who wants to go and get into trouble?
What's more, they are not familiar with their cousins at all. As for their eldest aunt and second aunt, their parents often follow their grandmother to cause trouble for them. Even if their parents agree to let their eldest aunt and others arrange marriages for them, the other party must be willing.
Cui Rumei knew clearly that it was impossible given the current relationship, so she didn't want to cause trouble.
"Hmph." Cui Rulin was very dissatisfied when she heard this: "Dad and Mom wanted to come with us, but it was Uncle and Second Uncle who refused to take them. If Dad and Mom could come with us, we wouldn't have to suffer here."
"Fourth sister!" Cui Rumei frowned slightly and said, "Auntie and Second Auntie didn't make us angry. Don't talk nonsense. If Auntie and the others heard it, what would they think?"
"I'll tell you, you're just a pushover, thinking everyone is good, huh." Cui Rulin pouted with a look of displeasure, then glanced at Cui Rumei: "Third sister, just tell me, do you want to help me?"
"How can I help you?" Cui Rumei said, "Don't even mention that there's no suitable young man right now. Even if there is, can we still rush to pester him? What will that mean? No matter what, it should be handled by the elders. Otherwise, do you still want to maintain your reputation?"
Cui Rulin curled her lips: If I can marry a good man, what does reputation matter? As long as I marry that person, won’t all my reputation be back?
Seeing Cui Rulin just pouting and not saying anything, Cui Rumei anxiously asked, "Fourth sister, do you understand what I said?"
"Hmph, if you don't help me stay in the capital, I will go back and tell my grandmother that you said she was biased. Let me see how she punishes you." Cui Rulin said arrogantly.
"You..." Cui Rumei's face turned red with anger at Cui Rulin: "How can you talk nonsense?"
"I don't care. If you don't help me, I'll say this." Cui Rulin raised her chin with a smug look on her face: "Grandma will definitely believe me, not you. If you don't believe me, just try it."
"Fourth sister, you've gone too far." Cui Rumei was so angry that she turned her head away and ignored Cui Rulin.
Seeing this, Cui Rulin became even more proud. She knew that Cui Rumei must be afraid that she would complain, so she smiled and said, "How about it, Third Sister, will you help me?"
"How do you want me to help you?" Cui Rumei turned around and glared at Cui Rulin: "In this capital, we are completely in the dark. Even if I help you, you must first find a young man you like."
"Need you to tell me? Of course there is." Cui Rulin's voice was also full of pride.
Cui Rumei was stunned when she heard this, and turned to look at Cui Rulin: "Fourth sister, do you have a favorite young man? Who is it?"
It's no wonder Cui Rumei was surprised. After all, they had been sitting in carriages or cabins all the way to Beijing, and had never seen any outsiders. Even when they arrived in Beijing, they packed up and went to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, and they didn't see any outsiders during that time.
The only young men among my relatives are my eldest and second cousins from my uncle's family.
etc!
Cui Rumei thought of this and looked at Cui Rulin in shock: "Fourth sister, you are not interested in the eldest cousin or the second cousin, are you?"
Cui Rulin smiled shyly when she heard that.
You really guessed it right!
Cui Rumei felt her heart sink and could not help but scold, "Fourth sister, are you crazy?"
Let’s not talk about whether my aunt-in-law likes my fourth sister or not. My eldest cousin and second cousin are both engaged. Could it be that my fourth sister wants to be a concubine?
How can this be?
Even if the Cui family was poor, there was no reason for them to let their daughter become a concubine.
"Third sister, what are you talking about?" Cui Rulin looked at Cui Rumei dissatisfiedly: "You are crazy, how can you say that to your own sister?"
Cui Rumei frowned, looked at Cui Rulin and asked, "Fourth sister, did you know that the eldest cousin and the second cousin are engaged?"
"I know." Cui Rulin nodded.
"Then you still..." Cui Rumei looked at Cui Rulin with some dismay: "There is absolutely no reason for our daughter to be someone's concubine."
"Who said I want to be a concubine?" Cui Rulin opened her eyes wide: "I don't want to be a concubine."
"You..." Cui Rumei's voice rose a little in anger, but she was afraid of being heard, so she quickly lowered it: "My cousins are engaged, engaged, do you understand? My eldest cousin is engaged to my second sister, and the girl my second cousin is engaged to is said to be from the Grand Secretary's Mansion. She's quite famous, so please don't make a fuss."
"Who's making trouble?" Cui Rulin pouted. "Of course I won't compete with the daughter of the Grand Secretary. I..."
Cui Rumei gasped when she heard this: "So, you want to compete with Second Sister? You, you, you are really crazy!"
It turns out that the fourth sister has her eyes on the eldest cousin and wants to compete with the second sister for marriage. If the second aunt and the others knew about this, would they still be able to tolerate the sisters?
"Am I worse than my second sister?" Cui Rulin said with her neck stiff.
"This isn't a question of whether it's good or bad, okay?" Cui Rumei rubbed her forehead with a headache. "Fourth sister, stop messing around. Second sister and eldest cousin are getting married in April. You'll make a fool of yourself if you act like this."
"Just tell me, will you help me or not?" Cui Rulin asked impatiently.
"I won't help." Cui Rumei said firmly, "This matter will not have any result. Second sister and eldest cousin are married according to their parents' orders and the matchmaker's words. What's the point of you interfering?"
"Humph." Cui Rulin stood up angrily: "Cui Rumei, I finally get to know you today."
After saying that, he was about to leave the house. After a few steps, he turned back to look at Cui Rumei and said, "Cui Rumei, if you dare to tell my aunt and the others about what I said today and make me suffer, I will tell my grandmother that you said bad things about her and scolded her. Then I will see how you cry."
After saying that, he lifted the curtain and walked out of the room, which made Cui Rumei so angry that her face turned red and she couldn't help but slam the table.
