Chapter 153 Settled in

Cui Jingping felt that she was in a strange mood in the next few days, but after thinking about it, she had no trouble recently, and just thought that the little girl loved to think about it, so she let it go.

Cui Jingzhong from the Cui family came back in mid-December. He used up the money he brought before and had to spend money to go to a private school every month. If he couldn't pay it again in a month, he couldn't even enter the school. Moreover, he does not live in the school now, but rents a house in the county and spends some copper coins a month. He was forced to go out. When he came back, he had to ask his parents for it. Yang loved his son and kept him at home for the New Year. He promised to think of a solution for him first.

It was half a month before the New Year. Unfortunately, the Cui family is so poor that they can kill pigs during the New Year in the past year. But now, as the New Year is approaching, the family has caught most of the chickens and ducks to sell. In order to support Cui Jingzhong's schooling, they have to spend some copper coins at the beginning of the year. After discussing, the Cui family simply sold the pigs in the circle. This incident naturally made Wang unhappy and had another trouble before giving up. Because of Cui Jingzhong's affairs, the Cui family could not live this year. The family was still deserted on New Year's Eve, and there were only a few simple dishes in the house. Although it was a bit oily and meaty, there was not even a few pieces of meat. Although Yang missed his youngest son, he naturally had no shame to call Cui Jingping back to celebrate the New Year when he saw the food in the house.

Cui Wei was also worried. After Nie Qiuran said that last time, she was hesitant and felt like she was being driven to the shelves, so she even wanted to hide. Nie Qiuran came back a few days ago. I wonder if Sun had any objections to him running to her side. Therefore, he only came over to sit for a while every day and went back without even leaving food. Cui Wei was relieved.

On the night of New Year's Eve, firecrackers sounded everywhere. Cui Wei and Cui Jingping finished their dinner. It was rare to be lively in the last time in the year. Cui Wei simply asked Cui Jingping to take the firecrackers out to play by himself, just telling him to be careful not to hurt his hands and eyes, and stay at home to pack the table. There were laughter and joy everywhere outside, which was completely different from the indifference of the modern New Year. At this time, the village was filled with laughter. If every household had already rested on the lights and went to bed, but now it was still very lively. Many children ran around and laughed, and they could hear it very clearly in this small village.

Shortly after Cui Jingping left, Nie Qiuran came over. Cui Wei was really afraid of him now. When she saw him, she felt a little guilty and quickly welcomed the person in. Then she sat down and said a little embarrassedly: Why did Brother Nie come over?

Nie Qiuran looked at her as soon as she sat down. Under the dim light, the girl's eyes dodged a little. He narrowed his eyes slightly, and said: I've been a little busy recently and I don't have time to come and sit down when I come back. Weier, how did you think about what I told you last time? He could tell that Cui Wei has retreated a little now. I don't know if it's because she has lived in the Cui family since she was a child, which makes her very cautious. Although Nie Qiuran doesn't understand the little girl's thoughts, she has been with her for so long, but she also knows her personality. If she just forces her now, it will be bad in the end. If she lets her retreat now, it will be even more beneficial to him. So after thinking about it, half true and half false:

You also know that you are still young and what will happen in the future. If you feel that you can't make decisions, I won't force you, but when he said he wanted to marry you, it was originally to help you. After saying this, he saw two red clouds gradually appearing on the little girl's face, and he couldn't help but show a small smile on the corner of his mouth. Cui Wei also remembered that Nie Qiuran actually said he wanted to marry her, but at the beginning it was really to help her. Now, he didn't seem to like herself so much that she wouldn't marry her. Could it be that she was wrong?

As soon as this thought came into her heart, Cui Wei felt that her cheeks began to get hot. If this was the case, wouldn't she behaved like a person and Cui Wei felt a little embarrassed? Nie Qiuran seemed to be embarrassed to see her, and then continued:

If you feel that you don’t want to marry me in the future, you will have a house in Lin'an City by then, and I will take you out. If you think about it, you should be careful and not too out of line. It will be enough to spend a safe life. After leaving the village, no one knows you, just pinch your identity. After Nie Qiuran said this, he turned around and poured a cup of warm goat milk on the table and drank two sips. It’s winter now, and the weather is cold. The sheep that had just been cooked for a while became a little cold after putting it on for a while. When he drank it into his mouth, he drank his eyelids and drank all the goat milk without changing his face. Then he looked up at Cui Wei.

Although he said this, Nie Qiuran had such thoughts at that time, but once and for a while, if she had just sympathized with Cui Wei at the beginning and had a little affection for this little girl, now after getting along for such a long time, he had already decided in his heart that the two of them didn’t say anything about their liking, but it was quite good to get along. Cui Wei was not like some girls in the village, timid and shy, which surprised Nie Qiuran. She was neither like an illiterate person nor as reserved and introverted as a lady in the boudoir. I don’t know how the Cui family raised such a strange little girl, but it was very suitable for Nie Qiuran’s appetite. If the two could live their lives, it would be natural.

Besides, many people in the village know that they have agreed to marry Cui Wei, so he would not really let her leave and marry someone else. He just stabilized her heart first, so that she would not want to hide from her all day long. She would not believe that for a long time, and would not be able to tie the little girl's heart.

A dark and inexplicable look flashed in Nie Qiuran's eyes, and all the thoughts in his eyes were blocked by his eyelids. Cui Wei could not help but feel relieved when she saw the gentle smile on his face. She didn't know that Nie Qiuran had such an idea in her heart. When she thought of her being a little cautious about him over the days, and when she thought about his spared no effort to help her open a shop, she suddenly felt a little guilty. Cui Wei hurriedly stood up, and while diligently adding some goat milk to Nie Qiuran, she said:

Brother Nie, you think about me like this and buying a house has helped me a lot. I don’t know how to thank you. However, this settlement is really troubled by you, and Aunt Nie will definitely not agree. How could I let you and Aunt Nie not finish her words? Nie Qiuran picked up the cup and took a sip, and said with a gentle expression: It’s done.

Cui Wei didn't understand what, and subconsciously looked up at him and asked.

I had already agreed with my parents. Seeing her stupid look, Nie Qiuran couldn't help it, so she reached out to pinch her face. The little girl's face was slippery. As soon as she touched it, there was still a feeling of touch on her fingers, as if she had applied powder, delicate and tender. He had not been there for two days after Cui Wei came back this time, and he went home to tell Sun and Mrs. Nie that this matter was really taken. But now that he could see Cui Wei's dull appearance, Nie Qiuran couldn't help but touch her head again, and his eyes turned: It was just a matter of a simple task, so you don't have to be polite to me in the future.

Since he convinced Sun, he said that if he didn't want to marry him in the future, he would just move out of the village under the name of marrying him. Although Cui Wei had doubted whether Nie Qiuran was deliberately lying to lie to him with Nie Qiuran's personality, she was still young and could only be said to be cute at most, but she was still in the Cui family, and she was not even old enough to say that she was kissing. Nie Qiuran is just a scholar now and is in the limelight. There are many people in the village who want to kiss him, so he would not let him go. Cui Wei immediately thought that she was thinking too much. After hearing Nie Qiuran said this, she was embarrassed and refused, so she naturally agreed.

Once she made up her mind, she would naturally leave it to Nie Qiuran to handle it. It would be inconvenient for the girl to move the account at home. Only a fame-loving person like Nie Qiuran would do it best.

Nie Qiuran stayed in Xiaowan Village for a few days and ran out almost every day. Sun saw that his son rarely came back and stayed for a while, but when he came back, he either ran to Cui's house or drove a carriage to the county, and would not stop spending the New Year. Nie Qiuran was also worried that if the news leaked out of the village, it would easily cause trouble to Cui Wei. He was not afraid, but he often went to school in Lin'an City, so he could not keep an eye on Cui Wei at all times. He simply went to the county every day. At that time, the households were directly settled in the county, which was more safe than those in the village, and it would not make others know. In this way, the nails were nailed on the iron plate, and the little girl could not escape.

Cui Wei didn't know what he was thinking, but she always made Nie Qiuran run up and down for her own affairs. But after he ran for a few days, he got things done, Cui Wei felt relieved. As long as the account matter is done, it is the best to buy land. If you can't buy it, renting land will be done. Anyway, using Nie Qiuran's account will even be exempted from taxes. If you either buy the land or your own, it is actually good to rent the land.

When things were almost done on the fifth day of the lunar month, Cui Wei was in a little mood to enjoy the fun of the New Year. In these days, almost every household visited relatives, and it was lively everywhere. Although the Cui family had a little difficulty in Cui Jingzhong's affairs recently, Cui Shifu still gritted his teeth and gave her six bronze coins, hoping that she would go smoothly. The Cui family married two wives in a row, and there were many relatives who were going to leave. It took several days to go to the Wang family and the Kong family. This time, the time soon came to the end of the fifth day of the lunar month. To be continued...
