Chapter 313 Cui Xi's Plan
Lu was startled by Cui Xi's sudden action, and quickly stood up to help her.
But Cui Xi knelt on the ground tightly, and no matter how hard Lu tried, she couldn't pull her up.
"Cui Xi, what are you doing? If you have something to say, just say it directly, why are you kneeling?" Lu said softly.
Chu Ran, who was standing aside, looked at Cui Xi's sudden action, and was also a little anxious and at a loss, so he simply knelt down with her.
When they knelt, both Madam Qin and Lu couldn't help but hold their foreheads.
These two are indeed a family, they have to kneel together, right?
Madam Qin could probably guess what Cuixi wanted to say, and said softly: "Cuixi, you don't have to be like this. You came to the Qin family with Maner, so you are naturally a member of the Qin family. Just ask for anything you want."
Lu also reacted at this time and said: "Yes, Cuixi, just tell me what you want. I will do my best to help you if I can, so you can rest assured. You and I have a deep friendship since childhood, how can I insult you and the people you care about. Get up quickly."
Cuixi shook her head, her eyes red, and still had no intention of getting up.
Seeing Cuixi still kneeling, Mrs. Lu turned to Chu Ran and said, "Mr. Chu, you should also persuade Cuixi. We can discuss anything."
Chu Ran had been crying since he saw his younger sister. When he arrived at the Qin family, he was busy washing up and had not really spoken to his younger sister. At this moment, he did not know what his younger sister was thinking, so how could he persuade her?
However, in his mind, his younger sister must have her reasons for doing so, so he followed her.
Seeing that neither of them moved, Mrs. Lu could only sit back in her seat helplessly.
"Tell me, Cuixi." Old Lady Qin spoke softly again.
Cuixi kowtowed heavily, bit her lip, and spoke slowly, her voice still a little hoarse.
"Old Madam, Young Madam, I know that the Qin family treats me very well, but..." Cui Xi glanced at Chu Ran, her eyes full of guilt, "but, brother has suffered too much to find me, this love is too great, I don't want to let you down."
"I want to marry you, but this..." Cui Xi looked at Lu with tears in her eyes, her reluctance was beyond words, "If this is the case, I can no longer serve the Young Madam, it's my fault, please help me, old Madam and Young Madam."
After saying that, Cui Xi kowtowed again.
Chu Ran, who was standing aside, was stunned after hearing this.
He came to find his younger sister, but not to ask her to repay him for any favor. They are a family, so how can one say who owes whom!
Moreover, although he and his younger sister had an engagement when they were children, that was many years ago. Now, as long as his younger sister lives well, he has nothing else to ask for.
So, he quickly explained, "Little sister, don't think like that. I didn't come to you to ask you to do anything. I just want to know that you are still here...how are you doing!"
"Our childhood engagement was just a joke by our parents, don't take it seriously! Now that you are living well in the Qin family, and I have settled down in the capital, we will have someone to take care of us in the future."
"As for your marriage...if you find a suitable person, bring him to me for my approval...and let me approve your wife in the future, okay?"
"Don't say anything about repaying a favor, we are a family!"
Chu Ran became more and more excited as he spoke, and his eyes turned red again.
He thought of his grandparents, his parents, and how happy they would be if they were still alive to see his little sister.
However, now that he can find his little sister again, it is already a blessing from God, and he can't ask for too much. As long as the two brothers and sisters live well for the rest of their lives, it will be the greatest comfort to their deceased relatives.
People always have to look forward and move forward. Being trapped in the present or the past will only make you lose yourself more and more, become more and more negative, and make people around you feel uncomfortable.
Life is only a few decades long, why bother to trap yourself, and why bother to trap others.
Now that his wish has been fulfilled, he naturally hopes that he and his little sister can be happy for the rest of their lives.
Maybe, he can pursue his dream again. When
Mrs. Qin heard Chu Ran's words, she looked at him with a higher opinion.
He truly treated Cui Xi as a family member. He did not seek to repay Cui Xi for being in the Qin family. Instead, he took the initiative to advise Cui Xi. He was a clean and upright person.
Presumably, with him around, Cui Xi would be able to get out of her self-blame mood as soon as possible. When
Cui Xi heard Chu Ran's words, tears flowed like a spring and she couldn't stop them at all.
In a trance, she seemed to see a little girl kneeling on the ground with red eyes, but she raised her head stubbornly to prevent the tears from falling.
A tall figure was tapping the little girl's right hand gently with a ruler.
Two women, one old and one young, were anxiously trying to stop them.
A solemn old man sitting in the main seat also scolded the tall figure loudly.
And a slightly older little boy was hugging the tall figure's thigh, begging bitterly.
Cui Xi was distracted suddenly, and she felt that the scene in her mind seemed familiar.
Before Cui Xi could think deeply, Mrs. Qin on the main seat spoke again.
"You two siblings are finally reunited now. It is a great joy and you should be happy. Cui Xi, your brother is right. You are a family. How can you repay a favor?"
"As for your childhood marriage, my suggestion is to let nature take its course. It all depends on your luck in the future. There is no need to rush to make a decision. After all, this is about your happiness for the rest of your life."
"Is this arrangement okay?"
Cui Xi calmed down at this moment. Her behavior just now was indeed a little impulsive and self-righteous. How could she decide her brother's future alone?
Cui Xi then bowed deeply and said, "I will follow the old lady's arrangement."
Seeing this, Lu finally smiled.
In her heart, she still hoped that Cui Xi could stay in the capital, by her side, so that if Cui Xi had any problems, she could help her immediately.
More importantly, she couldn't leave Cui Xi.
Chu Ran was naturally happy to hear that Old Lady Qin had made such an arrangement.
The two finally stood up again.
"Also, Mr. Chu, I know that you have studied before. Do you have any plans to continue to study for a good name?" Old Lady Qin looked at Chu Ran kindly and asked gently.
Chu Ran quickly clasped his fists and replied, "Old Lady, I did study a few books before, but I am not in a condition to continue to study for a good name now."
Hearing this, Cui Xi was about to say that she had money to support her brother's studies.
But before she could open her mouth, Chu Ran spoke first and told her his previous plan.
