Records of the Cattle and Horses of Chang'an

"Pa" a loud slap hit him on the back of the head, hitting his chin on the ground, and his upper and lower teeth met each other violently, causing him to gasp in pain.

The distressed expression only lasted a second before Zhao Yue's big dick slammed down on the same spot, unleashing a precise combo. "I've been arguing with your father-in-law about this for days, but it's actually giving those little goblins a good deal!"

Cui Zhe, Cui Bianxu's father, was handsome, well-read, and came from the direct branch of the Cui family. His demeanor and ability to pretend to be smart were three times more impressive than Cui Bianxu's current behavior.

Of course, his father-in-law doesn't know martial arts. From Xiao Cui's personal perspective, he believes that he and his father-in-law are on equal footing.

A family with a daughter is sought after by hundreds of families, but in the marriage market, men with good conditions are also in high demand.

Ever since he was a young man, many young ladies have been attracted to Cui Zhe. As a young man full of vigor and vitality, how could he be willing to get married early and be bound down for nothing?

If he hadn't accidentally encountered horse bandits while studying in Guazhou, and was rescued by Zhao Yue and carefully taken care of his injuries, the two of them would not have gradually fallen in love. I'm afraid the Cui family would have arranged a marriage for him and forced him to go home and get married!

The letter that Cui Zhe sent home saying he wanted to marry Zhao Yue was like cold water poured into hot oil in the Cui family, causing an uproar. No one in the Cui family agreed with the marriage. Cui Bianxu's grandfather Cui Quan even went straight to Guazhou with his guards, vowing to capture this unfilial son and immediately arrange for him to marry a woman from the Five Surnames.

Cui Quan and his men rushed to Guazhou with murderous intent. The first thing they did when they found their son was to tie him up and take him away. Cui Zhe had never seen such a scene before, so he shouted, "Yuer! Save me!"

The words fell!

Zhao Yue, holding a sword, rushed out with a light tap of her toes and leaped into the encirclement formed by a hundred guards of the Cui family.

Every member of the Zhao family in Dunhuang is good at martial arts - there is no other way. Guazhou is close to Tuyuhun and Turks. If you want to survive here, you must have some martial arts skills. Zhao Yue is no exception.

The result was, as expected, a crushing defeat.

Of course, her courage must be highly commended.

But this thing is reality, not a storybook.

She rescued people from the horse bandits because Cui Zhe was in a caravan at the time and the horse bandits wanted to rob the caravan. She took advantage of the crowd and snatched away Cui Zhe, the best-looking one.

This is the benefit of having outstanding beauty. If Cui Zhe didn't have a good-looking face, Zhao Yue wouldn't have the courage to take the risk to save people.

If she were to confront the bandits head-on, she would definitely not be able to defeat so many of them alone.

Cui Quan had naturally inquired about the woman who seduced his son. How could the Dunhuang Zhao family, a third-rate clan in a cold and harsh frontier area, be a match for a son from the Cui family?

According to his idea, he would just tie up the woman and send her to the Zhao family. He didn't know how the Zhao family educated their children. They didn't care if a young lady was alone with a man outside, and didn't even think it was a disgrace to the family tradition.

But when Zhao Yue came out with a sword and even fought with the Cui family's guards for dozens of rounds, he changed his mind.

The dozens of rounds here were not because Zhao Yue’s martial arts were good, but because the other party was a young lady, and the guards of the Cui family also had to save face, so they couldn’t just go up and fight her in a group!

As to why Cui Quan changed his mind, Cui Bianxu did not know. In short, Cui Quan stayed in Guazhou for a full month. Before leaving, the Zhao family finalized the marriage. Cui Zhe married Zhao Yue, becoming the only person in the Cui family to marry a woman other than one of the five surnames.

And now, Cui Bianxu is the second one.

"You are young and energetic now. If you meet a woman you like, you will naturally do everything you can to be with her. But what about the future?"

Since the topic of concubines has been brought up, Zhao Yue, as someone who has experienced this, has to say a few words: "Your father used to treat you, my mother, just like you are today, but so what? As time goes by, your beauty fades, and with beauty comes love. When you regret it, wouldn't you have just added a pair of resentful lovers..."

She gently stroked her face with the hand that had just hit her son. Even though she had taken good care of herself, she was nearly forty years old now. She couldn't be said to be old and ugly, but she certainly couldn't compare with those charming young ladies.

The young man who had made a vow to her was already surrounded by other beautiful women...

Cui Bianxu knew that this was a thorn in his mother's heart. Although those concubines were like cats and dogs and could be given away to others at any time, and Cui Zhe had never shown any special affection for any of them, the new and old ones kept coming and going.

At first, Zhao Yue also made a fuss. Every time she made a fuss, Cui Zhe would send the person away and come to coax her. After a while, new people would come. Gradually, Zhao Yue stopped making a fuss because she knew it was useless.

"Mother, I won't." Cui Bian said firmly. He had been used to seeing his mother's tears since he was a child, and he would not let Jiang Shangxian become like his mother.

Zhao Yue remained noncommittal. How many words could a man truly believe? Even her own son was no exception. She raised her head, retracting the tears from her eyes, and slapped Cui Bianxu on the back of his head again: "Have you ever thought about why the Cui family agreed to this marriage?"

Cui Bianxu was like a tortoise whose shell had been stepped on. She squinted her swollen and painful left eye, losing all hope of resistance. In her heart, she was silently thankful that her mother still had some sense of propriety. She at least knew to close the door before taking action. "Clan Records?"

"Hehe..." Zhao Yue laughed at her foolish son. She stomped down hard, and only relaxed her foot when she heard Cui Bianxu howling. "Aren't you afraid that the Cui family's evil-minded people will plot against you?"

"Mother, how old am I? I'm going to get married soon, why are you still like this? Let me get up first if you have anything to say." Cui Bianxu felt that he was already a filial son. If his mother continued to step on his back and talk to him like this, he would be angry!

Zhao Yue scoffed. After all, he was her own son. She couldn't really crush him to death. Finally, she gave him another strong kick before mercifully letting him up. She lazily leaned back in the chair and said with a half-smile, "Do you really like that Miss Jiang so much?"

"nature!"

Cui Bianxu stood up without hesitation, dusted off the dust on his body, and resumed his usual arrogant demeanor. However, the swelling on his face made him look a little ridiculous - like a rooster that had lost a battle. "Mother, she is very good. Her fragrance is different from others, and her cooking is delicious. But she is a little timid. You must not scare her."

Zhao Yue felt his feet itchy again. He forgot his mother after marrying a wife, and he hasn't even married yet!

"Why, what kind of Rakshasa am I, your mother? Knowing what kind of people the Cui family are, you still dare to marry a delicate and timid young woman? Aren't you afraid that she will be tortured?"
