Chapter 31 Madam Cui probably doesn’t want her fiancé to know, right?
But before she could do anything, the other person noticed that she had woken up and covered her eyes with his hands.
Cui Si reached out to grab his hands, but unexpectedly, the other party was faster than her. He restrained her hands in a few seconds and pressed them above her head.
She was about to kick the quilt away and give him a kick, but the other party, seeing that she was still not obedient, simply leaned over and pressed her hands and feet under him.
Cui Si was about to curse when she was pointed at again, and then she couldn't say anything.
Being pressed on the bed and unable to move or speak, Cui Si suddenly became panicked.
Who wants to harm her?
Is it Cui Yun or Madam Cui?
"Madam Cui." The man lowered his voice slightly, and his hot breath fell on her neck, as if he was about to kiss her.
Cui Si's whole body was tense, and her hands were shaking.
"Mrs. Cui, don't be afraid." The man probably noticed that she was afraid and couldn't help but explain.
"I was just being chased and ended up here by mistake. Please don't make any noise. I'll be leaving soon and won't do anything to you."
Finally, perhaps worried that she might be dishonest, he added, "Mrs. Cui has just been engaged. She probably doesn't want her fiancé to know that a man has been sneaking into her boudoir at night, right?"
Cui Si: "..."
Her breathing rose and fell heavily, and her fingers clenched into fists.
She would recognize this voice even if it turned into a ghost.
That bastard Yan Xingchuan!
This damn bastard!
What? Was he crazy? Why was he not sleeping in the middle of the night and running into the room of a boudoir girl like her?
However, when she learned that it was him, Cui Si felt a little relieved.
This man shouldn't force himself on a woman, right?
Cui Si was thinking, but she felt him covering her eyes with something and tying it up. Finally, he held her fingers in his palm, pinched her fingertips as he did in the past, then nodded at her before leaving.
Cui Si was free, she suddenly sat up and pulled off the band covering her eyes. In the end, she only saw a black figure jumping out of the open window and then disappearing.
The curtain in front of the bed was still swaying in the air, proving that someone had indeed been there.
Cui Si sat there for an unknown amount of time before her violently beating heart calmed down. Having survived the disaster, she let out a long breath, then stood up and walked to the window to look outside.
In the dark night, the yard was quiet and silent, with only the bright moonlight shining between heaven and earth.
The sycamore trees swayed gently in the wind in the night, and insects and birds that had just revived in spring were singing in unknown corners.
It was as if nothing had really happened, and everything that had just happened was just a dream she had.
Yan Xingchuan...what exactly does he want to do?
Why are you here?
Cui Si didn't know how long she stood by the window until she felt a little cold. Then she closed the window and lay back on the bed.
Because of this incident, Cui Si became more and more uneasy and tossed and turned, unable to sleep.
She didn't know when she fell asleep, but when she woke up the next day, she felt a little tired.
After washing up and having breakfast, she took a nap for a while. When she thought it was almost time, she went to Old Lady Xu's yard.
Old Mrs. Xu had just gotten up and was having breakfast. When she saw her, she asked her to sit down and have some breakfast.
"Granddaughter has used it, thank you, grandmother." Cui Si sat down aside and waited for Mrs. Xu to finish her breakfast and rinse her mouth. Finally, she slowly drank a cup of tea before asking about what happened last night.
Mrs. Xu told the story:
"With the head of the family absent, everything in the clan is decided by your father, your third uncle, and several elders. Let me and your third grandmother personally interrogate the lady about the name card."
"What did the lady say?"
"The lady denied it at first, saying that someone had framed her or wanted to harm the Cui family." When Mrs. Xu said this, she shook her head and was very disappointed with Mrs. Cui.
"But your third brother brought up the head of the family again, saying that the head couldn't even tell the difference between a genuine and fake Cui family name card. He truly couldn't distinguish right from wrong and wasn't worthy of being the head of the Cui family. Only then did Madam Cui change her tune and say that the name card was genuine."
"But even if it is true, it was sent there secretly without her knowledge by Si Niang. She failed to discipline her daughter properly, allowing her to commit a serious mistake. I am willing to apologize in front of the ancestral tablets."
Old Madam Xu sneered at this point: "She had already thought of a way to deal with it, and put the blame on her daughter. But her daughter is a sickly person, and the clan members can't do anything to her.
I just said a few wrong words in front of the ancestral tablets, who can do anything to her?"
This is simply cheating.
"Is she crazy?" Cui Si was also shocked. Does Madam Cui want to give up the reputation she has built up in the Cui family for twenty years?
She is so unreasonable, unfair, and even dishonest. How can the clan members trust and respect her in the future? How can she manage the women of the Cui family?
"It's all because of her daughter. She made one wrong step, and then she made all the wrong steps." Old Mrs. Xu shook her head.
Perhaps when the business card incident came to light, Mrs. Cui already felt a little regretful, but since things had come to this point, she could only bite the bullet and move on.
"Ah Si, you must remember that you must never start doing anything that is not right. If you do, you will be deeply trapped in it and unable to escape. If you make a wrong move, all the steps will be wrong. It will be a huge mistake and there will be no turning back."
Cui Si stood up, knelt, and kowtowed: "Grandmother's teachings, A Si will remember them in my heart."
In her first life, she had no relatives and had to struggle forward alone. Only by holding on to money did she feel a little sense of security.
But in her second life, she had many family members who loved and cared for her.
Her grandparents, parents, uncles, brothers and sisters, and even friends she had known for many years, treated her sincerely.
In her previous life, she was too greedy and self-righteous, always wanting to get the best in the world, which is why she made one mistake after another.
How nice it would be to stay in Xianyang City, to stay with my grandmother.
She was crazy to leave her family and marry a stranger...
"Oh my, oh my, what's going on?" Old Mrs. Xu was stunned and quickly asked Aunt Deng to help her up. "Why are you suddenly doing this big ceremony?"
Cui Si said, "I, your granddaughter, will always remember what you said today. I will always consider the future when I do anything in the future."
Although Mrs. Xu didn't know why she suddenly became like this, she agreed with her words: "Okay, okay, then you must remember this."
"yes."
As the grandfather and grandson were talking, a maid suddenly came in hurriedly to report: "Old lady, Sixth Lady, there's something wrong in the main house."
"What happened?"
"For some reason, the Fourth Lady went to sing in the courtyard next to the Elegant Garden where the Prince of Beiyan was temporarily staying last night. The Prince of Beiyan's personal guards thought someone was trying to assassinate him, so..."
"So what?" Old Mrs. Xu asked quickly.
"An arrow shot past."
