After rebirth, the Prime Minister's wife always wanted to leave her father behind and keep her

It was already dark and Lu Qingshan had left the court long ago, but Cui Yuanqing was still wearing his official robe. Could it be that he was much busier than Lu Qingshan?

Cheng Songan was about to slip back into the house, but unexpectedly Cui Yuanqing saw her all of a sudden, and his eyes as sharp as a knife shot at her, pinning her there like a sharp arrow.

"Come down!" Cui Yuanqing opened his mouth. Although his voice could not be heard through two floors, it gave people an inexplicable sense of oppression. The not-so-loud voice seemed to be able to penetrate the height of two floors and was clearly imprinted in his ears.

Mudan was so scared that she quickly pulled Cheng Songan's sleeve and said, "Miss, the master really wants you to go back home. Let's go down quickly."

Cheng Songan knew Cui Yuanqing's expression. If she didn't go down now, he would definitely come up and grab her down himself. Wouldn't that be embarrassing? It was better for her to go down obediently.

So the master and servant carried large and small bags of things and ran down from the third floor in a panic like thieves. When they reached the first floor, Cui Yuanqing was standing at the stairs with a gloomy face, half raising his head and glancing at the things in their hands.

Cheng Songan was not afraid of him. He stopped at the corner of the stairs and said, "Your Excellency has said that I cannot spend my dowry money. But I want to buy jewelry. So I have no choice but to follow your advice and spend your salary."

Cui Yuanqing snorted coldly: "Have you been drinking?"

Cheng Songan was a little hesitant. She had indeed drunk a lot. Cui Yuanqing could smell the alcohol before she even drank. If she went home now, Old Madam Yu would definitely find out. She would interrogate her tomorrow as to why she came out to drink alone. That would be troublesome.

Seeing that she didn't answer, Cui Yuanqing's jade-like face was covered with a shadow, and he squeezed out a few words from between his teeth: "Why don't you come down quickly?"

Cheng Songan didn't know what was going on, his mind was in a mess and his head was dizzy. He missed a step and fell down the stairs and rolled down.

"Cheng Songan!"

Before Cheng Songan hit the stair railing and passed out, she saw Cui Yuanqing's eyes wide open, and he stretched out his hands nervously to catch her, but the distance was a little far, and he leaped over and could only just reach the corner of her clothes.

Then Cheng Songan’s eyes went dark and he passed out. When he woke up, he was already in Yunxiang Pavilion.

Old Mrs. Yu sat at the head of the bed and cried, while Zhang sat on a chair beside the bed, trying to comfort her.

"Grandma, Mother!" Cheng Songan rubbed his swollen head and tried to sit up from the bed.

As soon as he stood up, Old Lady Yu held him down and said loudly, "Hurry up and lie down. Don't move. Does your head still hurt?"

Cheng Songan shook his head slightly. He didn't feel any pain, nor did he feel how badly injured he was. "Grandma, I'm fine."

Old Madam Yu said angrily, "I knew you were doing this for Yuan'er. He was the invigilator for the autumn examination and hadn't been off duty for three days. You went out early in the morning, and you must have wanted to welcome him, but he missed you and went to Hongyan Tower to look for you, but he didn't expect you to fall like this!"

Autumn Examination, invigilator?

Cheng Songan held his head and thought for a while. It was now August, and it was indeed the day for the Autumn Examination. Cui Yuanqing was not there to coax Cheng Wanxin, but was acting as an invigilator.

She was so impressed that she completely forgot about the matter.

"Where is my husband?" Cheng Songan asked.

The moment she tumbled down the stairs, Cui Yuanqing would show such a nervous expression and rush over to catch her. This was something she had never expected. Could he actually care about her sometimes?

Zhang added, "Your grandmother asked him to watch over the decoction of medicine."

As she was talking, Cui Yuanqing came in with a medicine bowl. Seeing that she had woken up, there was not much expression on her face. She said nonchalantly to Old Lady Yu and Zhang, "She just drank too much and felt dizzy. It's nothing serious. Grandmother and mother can go back first."

Old Madam Yu almost hit him with her cane: "She is weak, you know that, why let her drink cold wine?"

Cui Yuanqing lowered his head and did not refute: "My grandson will not dare to do that again in the future."

Cheng Songan looked at him in surprise. Didn’t he tell the two of them that she had drunk the wine by herself?

Old Madam Yu took a look at the medicine in his hand, then stood up and said to Zhang: "Let's go back first and let him make amends here and serve Yun Dai the medicine."

Although Zhang was dissatisfied with having her son serve her daughter-in-law, she had to agree for the sake of the old lady.

The two of them had just taken two steps when Old Lady Yu suddenly turned to the west side room. When she came out again, even Zhang stopped defending Cui Yuanqing and directly shouted at him, "I told you to move out of the study, and this is how you moved? Are you deliberately trying to make the Cui family extinct?"

Cui Yuanqing gritted his teeth, his jawline tense, and said nothing.

In return, Cheng Songan saw that he was being blamed, so he also defended him, "Mother, you have wrongly blamed my husband. These past two days, I have been practicing the piano in the west room, and sometimes I would read a book. I was too tired to go back to the bedroom, so I asked Haitang to prepare a quilt and rest there in the afternoon. It is not for my husband to sleep."

Cui Yuanqing raised his eyelids, gave her a meaningful look, then lowered his head again and said, "Don't worry, mother. I won't neglect the matter of our son."

Only then did Mrs. Zhang and Old Mrs. Yu go back satisfied.

As soon as the two of them left, Cui Yuanqing's face became as indifferent as before. He put the medicine bowl heavily on the table and said coldly: "Don't pretend to be dead, get up and drink it yourself."

Cheng Songan sat up awkwardly, sniffed the medicine, and frowned: "Since I didn't get hit at all, why should I take medicine? This bitter soup, I won't drink it."

Cui Yuanqing snorted coldly: "Fix your brain, so you don't have to do stupid things all day long."

Cheng Songan said angrily: "Who is stupid?"

Cui Yuanqing glanced at her and said, "Since you bought so many things, why don't you take two more people with you? If you take the maids with you, you won't fall down."

Cheng Songan was stunned. He frowned at the things in her hands in Hongyan Tower. He was not blaming her for buying things indiscriminately, but blaming her for not bringing two more people. He felt a little embarrassed for a moment.

After pinching her nose and drinking the bowl of medicine, Mudan hurriedly and carefully handed over a candied fruit. Not daring to look at Cui Yuanqing's expression, she hurried out again.

Cheng Songan waited until the bitter taste in his mouth dissipated a little before he lifted the quilt and wanted to lie down for a while. However, Cui Yuanqing, who was sitting on the chaise longue by the window, obviously had no intention of leaving.

After he was done with his work, didn’t he go to Cheng Wanxin to explain things?

But she was in no mood to care about the two of them now. There was something more important. After hesitating for a moment, Cheng Songan asked tentatively, "Master Cui, I want to ask you a question."

Cui Yuanqing looked up, a speechless expression on his face: "What are you crazy about again?"

Cheng Songan said seriously: "If you only have one daughter, and you find a son-in-law for her, and this son-in-law intends to return the family lineage for three generations, would you still let your daughter have a child for him?"

Cui Yuanqing's eyes lit up, and his gaze fell on her belly, his expression a little solemn: "Are you pregnant?"
