Chapter 113： What are you fussing about?

Chapter 113 What are you doing?

"Brother Li, how come, how come?" Cui Lan glanced at Ye Anlan, as if she wanted to say something, but it was hard to say it.

Li Jing knew what Cui Lan meant, but he didn't feel at all that he was worthy of criticism by mixing with a large group of refugees. As for the "price drop" and so on, this is even beyond the scope of Li Jing's consideration.

He smiled slightly at Cui Lan, "Brother Cui moved to another place with his family?"

He avoided talking about it, and Cui Lan couldn't hold on to it all the time, so he followed Li Jing's words and briefly told him about his own situation.

Ye Anlan found out that this big family is actually a family of officials and officials for several generations.

According to what Cui Lan said, his grandfather resigned from office and resigned voluntarily.

Although he said a lot of beautiful words, why his grandfather is old and can no longer bear the pain of paperwork, why his father has always been filial, and he rushed back from the north to serve his grandfather when he learned that his grandfather was ill, and why his grandfather used to govern The capital of the state, the surrounding cities have all fallen, his grandfather was really powerless, and he couldn't bear the suffering of the people in the war, so he took the initiative to hand over the state city

Although the words are beautiful, if the useless information and whitewashing words are simply and rudely filtered out, to put it bluntly, it is not that the Cui family and his son saw the situation is not good, so they abandoned the city and fled, taking the old and young with them, preparing to return to their hometown To shelter from the limelight.

Ye Anlan is the most impatient to deal with this kind of person. If you are timid, you can just say that you are timid and fearful. They all abandoned the people under their rule and ran away halfway. He has always acted righteous and noble, as if he would die on the spot if he admits that he has selfishness.┓(`)┏

She was about to find a way to slip away and leave this meaningless Mr. Cui to Li Jing to deal with, when the door of the carriage, which had been closed all the time before, opened at this moment.

Ye Anlan turned her head to look, and found that a few maids got out of the car first, and then these maids helped out an old woman, a middle-aged woman and two young women from here successively. A beautiful young girl.

The old woman and the middle-aged woman are a pair of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, they are Cui Lan's grandmother and mother respectively, and the two girls behind them are Cui Lan's two younger sisters.

What Ye Anlan didn't know was that the reason why the four mistresses of the Cui family changed their minds and got out of the car at this time was because of Cui Lan's eldest sister, Cui Ting.

Cui Ting is fourteen years old this year, which is the golden age for women in ancient times to find marriage.

Hearing his elder brother talking about some past events when he was studying in Kyoto, Cui Ting quickly realized that Li Jing was the "modesty gentleman" who was once famous in Kyoto.

In the past, her grandfather was still the magistrate, her father was still the judge, and Cui Ting, who claims to be of noble birth, would only be a little curious about Li Jing at most, but she would not regard him as her future like now. One of the husband-in-law candidates.

After all, although Li Jing is well-known, he also has two fatal shortcomings of weak body and ordinary family environment.

No matter how good the character is, it is just the icing on the cake for Cui Ting. Without a strong family background, and no one who can fight for her glory and wealth, no matter how good the character is, it is futile for her.

But after seeing Li Jing's heroic appearance on horseback with his own eyes, Cui Ting immediately forgot the rumor that "Li Jing's life is not long".

In addition, their family is no longer an official, and the family of officials and eunuchs who once proclaimed themselves have completely reduced to an ordinary wealthy family of squires.

Even though her father and grandparents all had Jinshi achievements, and the family spent a lot of money to hire a lot of guards, but in this troubled world, there are really not many problems that Jinshi achievements and a few guards can solve.

At this time, because Li Jing's offshoots of the family can rely on the deep strength of the direct line, they have an advantage over their unreliable small families.

Cui Ting's thoughts changed quickly. After thinking about the pros and cons, she immediately turned her attention to her own mother.

Her mother, Madam Cui, is also shrewd. Madam Cui immediately understood her daughter's shy eyes.

She exchanged glances with her mother-in-law, and then glanced at her daughter suggestively.

Although Mrs. Cui didn't have much impression of Li Jing, she thought that once she returned to her hometown, her granddaughter's marriage would inevitably drop several notches. Mrs. Cui didn't mind helping her granddaughter to see each other on the way. A young son worthy of their Cui family's attachment.

Thinking of this, the two of them took their daughters and got out of the car.

However, before they could walk to Ye Anlan and the others like proud flower peacocks, the youngest girl of the Cui family screamed in fright at the bloodstains and corpses on the ground.

Although the little girl has the same body as Ye Anlan's, she is also in her early ten years of age, but she has been well-clothed and surrounded by servants since she was a child, and the rough old aunt like Ye Anlan who has experienced the beatings of the last days, her psychological endurance is not enough. on the same level.

"Mother! Mother!" The little girl hugged Mrs. Cui's neck, her feet didn't even dare to touch the ground - beside her feet, there was a small puddle of human blood slowly flowing towards where the four female family members of the Cui family were standing. .

Madam Cui was also taken aback, but she has experienced many things, but she can barely maintain her calm appearance.

Ask the maidservant to send all the two daughters into the car, and Mrs. Cui helped Mrs. Cui, and sent her to the car first.

Finally it was her turn, and the puddle of human blood was almost on her embroidered shoes.

Madam Cui dared not delay any longer, with the help of her servants, she escaped and got into the car again.

The maidservants who had their feet in the blood were ruthlessly abandoned by their masters. They didn't dare to say anything, and after asking Mrs. Cui for instructions, the leading old lady took the other maids to the car that was supposed to be for their servants.

Several people were afraid to get blood stains in the car, so they could only sit on the shaft of the car, endured nausea and fear, took off their old shoes, and then climbed into the car to change new shoes.

"Good guy, what's all this fussing about?"

Hearing such a sentence suddenly, Ye Anlan subconsciously raised her hand to cover her mouth. In the end, Ye Anlan hadn't raised her hand yet, but Ye Anlan recovered from the guilty conscience that suddenly heard her own voice.

She glanced at Cui Lan, whose face was flushed purple, and then at Yang Xiaotao, who was standing beside her on a horse, stretching her neck to look in the direction of the carriage, "Don't talk nonsense." Talk nonsense every day┓(`)┏

Cui Lan was stunned by her seeming reprimand, but in fact, there was a smile and doting in her tone. Although he also felt that the behavior of his grandmother, mother and sister was really inexplicable, but even so, These lowly-born refugees are not qualified to say even a single word about his family members.
