Chapter 82 I always hope that Lady Liu can be happy
Jiang Cinian was surprised to see three people coming to help, so he asked Cui Si to go back.
"Sixth Lady, please go back to the house. We don't need you."
Cui Si shook her head and said, "Look how quickly the sky darkens. Just a moment ago it was clear and bright, but now dark clouds and strong winds have come. It might rain heavily.
Didn’t you say you wanted to earn more money for cosmetics? If the medicinal materials go bad, won’t I have less money for cosmetics?
Stop talking and pack up quickly."
Seeing that she had said this, Jiang Cinian did not stop her: "Then be careful not to fall."
"Yes."
With three more people, collecting the herbs became much faster.
When the heavy rain started to pour down, the servants were just about to take away the last basket of herbs.
The group walked towards the corridor at the garden entrance. Halfway there, it started to rain heavily.
Jiang Cinian used his wide sleeves to shield her from the rain and pulled her forward quickly.
When they reached the corridor, Cui Si was only covered with a few drops of rain, but his clothes were covered with dense rain marks, soaking them into patches.
Seeing that there was rain on his face, Cui Si took out a handkerchief embroidered with crabapple flowers and gave it to him: "Wipe it off."
Jiang Cinian took it naturally and wiped his forehead twice.
It was at this moment that Old Madam Yan arrived with Yan Jishen and Yan Suxin.
"Why are you here?" Cui Si was surprised. "It's raining."
Madam Yan glanced at the two of them and said, "I heard you were collecting herbs here, so I came to take a look."
"What's so good about this?"
“It’s rare to see you doing it yourself.” Madam Yan glanced at her, not knowing whether to be happy or sad for a moment.
She sent Jiang Cinian away and said, "Go change your clothes first. I have something to say to Liu Niang."
Jiang Cinian replied "yes", then looked at Cui Si, then turned and left from the corridor.
Cui Si watched his back disappear, then stepped forward to help Old Madam Yan back to the main courtyard.
Madam Yan said angrily, "You can see that if you marry him, this is the life you will have to live. You will have to work hard most of the time. Can you bear this hardship?"
Cui Si smiled and said, "Grandmother, you're worrying too much. There's no need for me to work so hard. Even if I were to marry into the family, I'd just bring more dowry. When we have more people, we won't be as busy as we are now."
"Besides, Mr. Jiang also said that he has to earn money to support the family and to earn money for my cosmetics. If that's the case, I won't suffer any loss, right?"
"I'm not afraid of giving, but I'm afraid of giving without getting anything in return."
If you say it's hard, didn't she have a hard life in her previous life?
When Yan Xingchuan was fighting outside, she sometimes had to guard Beiyan City for him, keep an eye on the foreign invaders, take care of the children, and handle affairs.
Sometimes I would accompany him on his campaigns.
I have suffered hardships and experienced dangers.
She actually has no complaints about these things. She just feels that husband and wife are one and should support and help each other.
It was precisely because she had paid so much, for more than ten years, that the things that happened later made her unable to let go in her entire life, and she still has resentment in her heart.
Yan Xingchuan still wanted to reconcile with her and wanted her to marry him again. He must have gone crazy to think about such a beautiful thing.
How stupid is she to jump into this pit again.
"It's good that you know what's going on." Old Madam Yan looked at the rain outside the corridor. The rain was pouring down, getting heavier and heavier.
"You have your own ideas. Your grandmother can do whatever she wants. I can't control her."
Cui Si smiled and said, "You and Grandmother both love me. I am so lucky to have you two elders..."
At noon, the group had lunch at the Jiang family's house and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.
Old Madam Yan was talking to Jiang Cinian and Yan Jishen, while Yan Suxin was pulling Cui Si to play chess in the corridor and whispering.
Outside, rain was pouring down on the earth, and water was dripping from the eaves. The peonies that had just been moved from the yard to the corridor were still in full bloom, looking gorgeous and tempting.
Yan Suxin asked Cui Si again: "Cousin, when do you think General Shen will come to the Cui family to propose marriage?"
"Fourth cousin." Cui Si glanced at her and said, "The Cui family offered Pingzhou to the King of Northern Yan, and only then did they get the position of queen for the Cui daughter.
Later, something went wrong and she couldn't be queen anymore. The King of Beiyan arranged for Ah Hao to marry General Shen. Do you know what that means?"
"It means that the Cui family and the Northern Yan army will forever be united as one family."
"If this marriage goes wrong because of you, the Yan family will not be able to protect your life, and even the Yan family will have to bear the wrath of the Cui family."
If she couldn't marry the King of Northern Yan, then marrying Chen Mo would also be a good choice. Many women in the Cui family also thought so and wanted to compete for it.
But since the candidate has been decided, and the Cui family has already made a mistake in the marriage and missed the position of queen, anyone who dares to cause trouble and ruin this marriage will suffer a bad end, even for the Cui family members.
Yan Suxin's face froze for a moment, then turned red: "I...I'm just a little curious."
Chen Mo, the young general in a white robe, is a world-famous general at such a young age, and he is also handsome. Which girl would not be curious about him?
Cui Si glanced at her and said, "It's not meant to be yours. It's best not to be curious. Some people, after meeting them once, ruin their lives. They then hold grudges, blaming the heavens, the earth, and themselves, saying that heaven is unfair."
The red on Yan Suxin's face gradually receded until she turned pale. She bit her lip and said, "Cousin, it's not as serious as you say."
Cui Si took a sip of tea and said, "I'm just giving you a heads up because you're my cousin, lest you make a mistake and end up with no way back..."
In the afternoon, the heavy rain stopped, but there was still a lot of water on the road, making it difficult to travel.
The group waited until the evening, then left the Jiang family and returned to the Cui family.
Jiang Cinian personally sent the person back and went to pay a visit to Old Lady Xu. When he left, Cui Si saw him out again.
It was getting dark, the wind was cool, and the shadows of the bamboo and pine trees were reflected on the candlelight.
Each of them held a lamp to light the way forward.
When he got on the car and looked back, Jiang Ci Nian suddenly said, "If one day you regret it, you must tell me."
She was obviously someone who could have been the queen, but she chose him, who had nothing. Jiang Cinian felt secretly happy, but also worried.
He was worried that one day she would regret it and think she could live a better life.
The scenery is so glorious that everyone is subservient to him.
He felt that this was the kind of life she should live.
And not... not picking herbs with him in that rainstorm.
He recalled their first meeting. It was a fleeting glimpse, and he didn't dare look at her any longer, for fear of being abrupt.
Now she stood in the dim twilight to see him off, the tassels on her hairpin swaying slightly, reflecting her bright and beautiful face.
"I always hope that Lady Liu can be happy."
