After rebirth, the Prime Minister's wife always wanted to leave her father behind and keep her
Chapter 178 Taking Her In
She hadn't broken off the engagement yet, but he was the first to say it. Cui Wenxin held her breath, slashed the door frame with the kitchen knife in her hand, and ran back to the house in despair.
Fourth Grandma advised her: "He did this thing, and it was like burning your uncle to death. You can't marry him anymore. Since he brought it up first, just pretend it never happened."
She thought that if she moved Cui Yuanqing out of the question, Cui Wenxin would be able to understand.
"Uncle, don't blame him." Cui Wenxin cried and ran out. After thinking it over, she decided to go to Fisherman and Woodcutter Villa.
Cheng Songan looked at Cui Wenxin, who seemed to have grown up overnight and became worried, but this change did not seem to be a bad thing. There was a firmness between her eyebrows that had never been there before.
But this girl was not smart enough. She only said that Cui Yuanqing did not blame Su Zhi, but she did not think that this matter was originally arranged by Cui Yuanqing for Su Zhi to do. Cui Yuanqing was a person who took every step carefully and looked three steps ahead. How could he just kill Su Zhi for Cui Wenkang?
"Are you really going to marry him? You'll follow him even if you have to be exiled?" Cheng Songan tightened his face, wanting to see to what extent Cui Wenxin was attracted to Su Zhi.
Cui Wenxin's tears fell, and she said angrily: "Who would marry him? I didn't blame him for harming my uncle, but he has the nerve to break off the engagement! I will scold him to his face."
Cheng Songan couldn't help but laugh. If she had said with certainty that she would marry him, she might have worried that the girl was doing it out of a sense of loyalty or impulse. But hearing her resentful and coquettish tone, she was afraid that she herself didn't even know that she had already fallen deeply in love with Su Zhi.
"Okay, I'll take you to see him, and after you're done scolding us, we'll break off the engagement!" Cheng Songan asked Taxue to get some men's clothing, and he and Cui Wenxin dressed up as servants. He then told Li Wenbin, "Take my name card and go find General Ming."
It was Ming Zhan who recommended Cui Wenkang to the Patrol Department. He was also implicated in this incident. If he goes to find trouble with Su Zhi at this time, the warden will also give him a favor.
Sure enough, as soon as Ming Zhan received the visiting card, he immediately came out of his house and took them straight to where Su Zhi was imprisoned. They got in without much effort.
In the dark and damp cell, Su Zhi was sleeping with his shoulder against the wall. He had been flogged and his entire back was covered in blood. He could not sleep well. Hearing the noise, he slowly opened his eyes and saw Cui Wenxin. His eyes lit up, but he quickly looked away and nodded to Cheng Songan and Ming Zhan.
Although Cheng Songan knew that this was part of their plan, he couldn't bear to see Su Zhi seriously injured. He turned around to look at Cui Wenxin, his eyes were red like a rabbit, and teased, "Scold him."
Cui Wenxin lowered her head and glared at Su Zhi fiercely: "Come here!"
Su Zhi hesitated for a moment, but still moved over.
But Cui Wenxin took out needle and thread from her sleeve, pulled over his sleeve, and sewed up the torn part of his clothes bit by bit. Her embroidery was taught by Cheng Songan, and the stitches were fine. This torn clothes was not worthy of the needle and thread.
Su Zhi turned his head away and opened his mouth to say something, but he just felt a blockage in his throat.
"Let's go," Cui Wenxin put away her needlework and said to Cheng Songan and Ming Zhan, "Thank you for bringing me here."
Ming Zhan didn't understand and asked curiously, "Aren't you here to break off the engagement?"
"I didn't say I wanted to cancel the engagement," Cui Wenxin glanced at Su Zhi, "He can't cancel it either."
Ming Zhan was even more confused. He looked between the two of them and asked Su Zhi, "You're not going to cancel the engagement either?"
Su Zhi did not answer him, but said softly: "Miss Xin, come here."
Cui Wenxin walked over awkwardly, and before she could say anything, her arm was grabbed by a hand that stretched out from the fence, and the next moment, something warm was stuffed into her palm.
It was a piece of jade that Su Zhi took out from his inner pocket. He stuttered, "This…this was…originally given…to my fiancée, but now…I give it to my wife."
He never showed his weaknesses in front of others, but in front of Cheng Songan and Ming Zhan, he did not hide his stuttering and finished speaking nervously.
Cui Wenxin held the jade in her palm and grinned, but tears came out first.
Ming Zhan didn't understand what was going on with these two people until he walked out of the prison gate. He was still leading the way, holding his head, and unexpectedly bumped into someone.
Cui Yuanqing was dressed in black and wrapped in an indigo cloak, and his face was colder than the chilly spring weather.
"I didn't see the road clearly and bumped into Lord Cui." Ming Zhan said the words of apology, but there was no apology on his face.
Cui Yuanqing looked past him and looked at Cheng Songan, who was wearing men's clothes, and moved his lips: "If you want to come here, why don't you come to me?"
Cui Wenxin noticed that the atmosphere was not right, and immediately stepped forward to greet Cui Yuanqing, explaining: "Uncle, you have been busy these days, so I am sorry to bother you. I begged my aunt to bring me here."
Cheng Songan's eyes fell on the carriage behind him. He usually rode a horse alone, why would he ride in a carriage? As expected, a corner of the carriage curtain was lifted, and Cheng Wanxin's little face poked out, and she called out "Sister" in surprise and joy.
Judging from the situation, he seems to be going to take her into the house right now.
"What do you want to see Lord Cui for? Our relationship is awkward and it will be inconvenient." Cheng Songan sneered.
Cui Yuanqing frowned and said, "I'll go there in the evening."
Cheng Songan sneered. He thought that when he saw him, the two identities of Cui Yuanqing and Brother Sansi would each occupy half, but it seemed that Cui Yuanqing was still in the dominant position. The person in front of him was no longer the young man he was back then. He was Cui Yuanqing, who was always full of responsibility towards Cheng Wanxin.
Years ago, he said that Cheng Wanxin would enter Cui Mansion only after she gave birth, and he had nothing for her. It was a lie. For the sake of Xue Tingyun and Situi, he would never let go of Cheng Wanxin.
"Master Cui, please respect yourself!" Cheng Songan said calmly, "First settle your new wife. It's inconvenient for you to go to my place, and I don't welcome you."
"Yuanqing, what happened?" Cheng Wanxin lifted the curtain of the sedan chair and asked nervously, her face full of worry.
Cui Yuanqing turned around and said impatiently, "Nothing, I want to change. Take her back first."
Si Bian, who was standing by the carriage, was extremely embarrassed and felt guilty when he looked at Cheng Songan. Cheng Wanxin, who was in the carriage, said to her openly, "Sister, since you didn't let me go to the villa to see you, why don't you at least go to Cui's house to see me and let me apologize to you."
This was to tell her that she was really going to move into the Cui Mansion.
"What crime are you pleading guilty to? You are innocent." Cheng Songan rolled his eyes at Cui Yuanqing, turned to Ming Zhan and Cui Wenxin and said, "Let's go back too."
Cui Wenxin stared at the carriage, then glared at Cui Yuanqing, waved her hand and said, "Aunt, I'm going home today and I'll thank you another day."
As he said that, he ran over, grabbed Si Bian's hand as he was about to drive the carriage, and climbed onto it.
Ming Zhan suddenly said, "Today I helped Miss Cheng, so I want to go to the manor to ask for a cup of tea. I wonder if Miss Cheng is willing to give me a cup of tea?"
Cheng Songan smiled: "Of course it's what I deserve."
Cui Yuanqing's face was covered with a layer of frost. He watched Cheng Songan get on the carriage, and Ming Zhan rode a horse beside him, heading towards the Fisherman and Woodcutter Villa.
