I kicked out my vicious husband and married his great-uncle
Chapter 26 Cui Shuyan, you are now strong enough
When they arrived outside Cui Shangjin's study, Cui Shuyan asked Qiaoya to wait outside and went in alone.
Knowing that Cui Shuyan came in, Cui Shangjin raised his eyelids to take a look, and then quickly dropped them again: "Since you are back, go see your mother. There is no need to come to my place."
"Biyu has a scar on her face, so it will be inconvenient to take her out in the future. I want to change a maid."
"Tell your mother about this and she will handle it." Cui Shangjin said this without even raising his eyelids.
Cui Shuyan continued, "This time I will not only replace the maid, but also take the maid's indenture with me."
"Ha!" Cui Shangjin laughed contemptuously and finally looked Cui Shuyan straight in the eye. "Why, you've become bolder after getting married?"
Cui Shuyan met his gaze, her expression neither sad nor happy: "Master Cui, you must have wanted a son for so many years, right?"
Perhaps it was because Cui Shangjin was not a good person, as he had three daughters in succession since he married Madam Cui.
Behind the scenes, Cui Shangjin often complained to Mrs. Cui for not being able to give birth to a son.
Helplessly, Mrs. Cui had to give her consent to let Cui Shangjin take a concubine.
It’s a pity that I took three or four concubines, but in the end, I only had three more daughters.
Now, including Cui Shuyan, the Cui family has a total of seven daughters, but no sons.
Cui Shangjin was deeply hurt by what Cui Shuyan said. He immediately threw the book in his hand and said, "Cui Shuyan, you have grown strong now and dare to laugh at your father in person, right?"
"Father had a son before, didn't he?"
Cui Shuyan has an older brother.
Back then, my mother was determined to come to the capital to stop my scumbag father from getting married again, so she left in a hurry. However, she didn't expect that my brother had a high fever just before leaving.
In desperation, her mother had to leave her brother to the care of her uncle and took her to the capital.
However, the scumbag father probably felt that there was no hope of having a son later on, and finally remembered the son who was fostered in his uncle's home. He sent people to look for him, only to find out that the village where his uncle lived had suffered a flood the previous year, and all the people in the village were washed away by the torrent and lost their lives.
At this time, Cui Shangjin's expression was even colder than before: "Cui Shuyan, what do you want to say?"
"Since Lord Cui agrees to my request, I will naturally tell you the news about my brother."
"Your brother is not dead?"
"Yes."
"Impossible!" Cui Shangjin shook his head directly, "This is impossible. The people I sent told me personally that everyone in your uncle's village was washed away. Don't try to lie to me about this."
Cui Shuyan had a calm expression.
There was a time when she also felt that her brother was gone and she was sad about it for a long time.
However, in her previous life, when she was imprisoned after becoming pregnant, she heard Lin Xinrou say with her own ears that a man who claimed to be her brother came to the house to look for her, but unfortunately, he was sent away by Lin Xinrou.
At that time, she couldn't even protect herself and had no way to find her brother's whereabouts.
It was also because of this incident that she firmly believed that her brother was still alive.
Moreover, judging by the time, her brother will come to see her soon.
Thinking of this, Cui Shuyan said directly: "Brother has already contacted me. He has a grudge against you and doesn't want to contact you. If you have this attitude, I don't want to play between you and brother anymore."
After saying that, Cui Shuyan turned around and left, looking very determined.
At this time, Cui Shangjin panicked: "Wait!"
Cui Shuyan turned around with an indifferent expression.
"Do you really have news about your brother?"
"Yes."
"Bring him to me."
Cui Shuyan smiled coldly: "Master Cui, now is not the time for you to negotiate with me. I still say the same thing, give me the indenture of the maid I want to take away, and then I will be able to give you news about my brother. Otherwise, no deal!"
Cui Shangjin sneered: "Cui Shuyan, do you think you have grown strong now?"
"It's up to you, Master Cui. Anyway, I've already stated my conditions. Whether you agree or not is up to you."
Without thinking too much, Cui Shangjin asked directly: "What is the name of the maid you want to take away? I will ask the housekeeper to arrange it."
"Her name is Qiaoya, and she is responsible for sweeping the outer courtyard."
After entering the mansion, Qiaoya only served in the outer courtyard, never saw the master, and was not given a name.
"Okay, wait." Cui Shangjin quickly gave orders and asked someone to get Qiaoya's indenture.
After getting the indenture, Cui Shuyan and Qiao Ya confirmed it together, and then carefully put it away.
"Remember what you said." Cui Shangjin reminded in a cold voice.
"Don't worry, Master Cui. I won't forget it."
After saying that, Cui Shuyan took Qiaoya to Madam Cui's courtyard.
Cui Mingzhu is also there.
Judging from her smug look, it was obvious that she had already filed a complaint.
After Cui Shuyan entered the room, she bowed and said, "Hello, mother."
Since there was no one else around, Mrs. Cui no longer pretended and did not ask her to stand up.
On the contrary, Cui Mingzhu said sarcastically: "Oh, Cui Shuyan, you are married now, which is amazing."
"Sister, please be careful with your words. Although the Xie family is of noble status, it is not to the point of being incomparable. If your words were to get out, others would think something had happened to the Xie family." Regardless of whether Madam Cui had spoken or not, Cui Shuyan straightened up and spoke neither humbly nor arrogantly.
Now, she no longer lives in the Cui family, and Madam Cui no longer has to take care of her food, clothing, and daily expenses. Naturally, she no longer has any fear of Madam Cui.
Now, she no longer has to make a living under Madam Cui.
At this moment, Mrs. Cui also felt that something seemed different about Cui Shuyan's return this time.
Cui Shuyan didn't consider what Madam Cui thought. Before Cui Mingzhu could start a fight again, Cui Shuyan asked directly, "I wonder what's the important matter that my mother asked me to come back for?"
"It's nothing important. I just thought I haven't seen you for a long time, so I asked you to come back so I can see you more." Mrs. Cui said with a smile.
Cui Shuyan smiled faintly: "Now that mother has seen it, I will go back. My husband is taking the imperial examination soon, and there are many things to do in the mansion, so he can't leave."
After saying this, Cui Shuyan turned around and left without waiting for Madam Cui to say anything.
"Cui Shuyan, did my mother tell you to leave?" Cui Mingzhu said indignantly.
Cui Shuyan turned around and ignored Cui Mingzhu, saying, "Oh, I forgot to tell mother that I won't take the jade this time. I'll leave it for her to use."
After saying that, Cui Shuyan left.
Only after leaving Cui's house did Qiaoya burst into tears of joy: "Sister Shuyan, I, I really left Cui's house?"
"That's right. You will follow me from now on." Cui Shuyan said softly.
"Okay, thank you Sister Shuyan. No, I should call you Miss. Thank you Miss." After saying that, Qiaoya knelt down and kowtowed solemnly to Cui Shuyan.
Cui Shuyan raised her hand to help her up, and said softly: "I am now married to the Xie Mansion. In the Xie Mansion, you only need to listen to me."
Qiao Ya had been in the Cui Mansion for such a long time, and she also knew the rules of the big family. She nodded immediately and said, "Whatever the young lady says, Qiao Ya will definitely do it."
……
After returning home, Cui Shuyan did not go to see Xie Shaohang first, but went to Madam Xie's room first.
