Chapter 431
Zilan twisted his body and sat face to face with him, "Are you afraid that you will hear too much? You will hear it in your heart? I know they must have not said good words, saying that I have suppressed you or something, and I don't know who to listen to when I become a kiss, I..."
Cui Hao raised his hand and hugged the person in his arms, "It's not like this, I can't bear this. How can I stay in the officialdom in the future?
I can't stand the stingy words at all and want to go home and lose my temper with my wife to find a place to go. In the future, others will say that I rely on my grandfather to have the present, otherwise the top scholar should not give it to me. Should I go home and lose my temper with my grandfather?
If you go through such things and hardships in the future, what is this? If you take advantage of the benefits, you will be too shameless.
I just want to pull you to slap them in the face and let them know why the emperor has appointed you as the county magistrate, not others, which is what you deserve.
My grandfather chose you for me with sufficient reasons and forward-looking vision. They cannot erase your strengths just by just a few jealous words.
Why are you thinking too much? I don’t take it seriously and I still want to take you to find a place for me.”
"I'll be relieved if you don't mind. I'm afraid that some villains will whisper in your ears to destroy our relationship."
Zi Lan lowered her head and smiled embarrassedly.
"Silly girl, I am not a poor family. I started my family poorly and have a strong self-esteem. I am no worse than anyone else in the Cui family. I think I am a hard-working student. I think I deserve you, why do I have to be inferior?"
Cui Hao blinked at her cutely. He was not a poor boy who made his fortune by relying on the Yue family. My Cui family is also a prominent family.
"Hahaha! Yes, my man is the most handsome and talented, and he is the top scholar. At that time, many sisters were jealous of me."
This is the truth. Many people envied Zilan for having a good marriage.
"Right, people always only see this point in front of them. At that time, someone said that you flattered me from the Cui family, and I heard some bad remarks.
My father-in-law used a daughter to change his future and curry favor with the prime minister. I don’t know what methods did he use to make the old prime minister fall in love with his daughter. A fourth-rank official and a first-rank official get married, which is too far from it.”
"Ah, there are people who are muttering about this. I don't know. Girls don't say it's so ugly."
Zi Lan really didn't know that girls in this era were subject to etiquette and rules and would not speak bad words.
"When men get jealous, they are even more terrible than women. That's a harsh word. Some people say that your father exchanged the 300,000 taels earned by his daughter for a second-rank official."
"What?"
Zi Lan stood up angrily, her face full of anger.
"Nonsense, my father was assassinated several times in Jiangnan, confiscated salt tax, and increased the tax on the treasury by hundreds of thousands of taels. Is this what I earned?
When will the emperor decide when the money earned by a girl from me? Is it so shameful to say this?
My father is also a Tanhualang. My Song family has been a farming and reading family for eight generations. My ancestors also had an imperial sect and enjoyed the sacrifices of the Taimiao. Why do you say that to my father?"
At the end of the conversation, Zilan burst into tears. My mother had poisoned and assassinated herself, so why do you say that?
All the mechanisms and antidotes brought back were used up, and nothing left was left in the mechanism, which means they encountered more than once of danger, but they just never told themselves.
"Why are you crying? If I had known that I wouldn't have told you this, these people wouldn't be able to say anything good. I mean we didn't take it to heart, it was just that they were jealous."
"My dad must be very uncomfortable when he hears it."
Zilan was so angry that she kept wiping her tears. You said I didn’t care if you farted, but you couldn’t say that my family was.
"How could my father-in-law listen to these people talking nonsense? How could the emperor use him if he was so sensible? Could it be that the emperor's eyes were not as bright as them? These people were the remnants of the Geng family, but they were not deeply involved. The emperor was not able to shake the country's foundation and never attacked them.
I'm telling you this is just to tell you. In fact, there have been disputes in the court, and it's not calm. I know you are a strong girl. I don't want to lie to you, nor do I want to wait for others to tell you to instigate you to ruin our relationship. These people have always been jealous of us and want to destroy the alliance between our two families, which is related to interests."
Zi Lan wiped away her tears and raised her head. Her slender eyelashes looked like feather fan, and were stained with crystal tears. I wondered why, "The interests? Is it your official position to compete?"
"No, compete for the benefits you bring, Lan'er, you are better and better than you think. It's not just me and the emperor who discovered your advantages and abilities. What you can bring to everyone is endless wealth and opportunities. They are unwilling to let the only alliances such as the Yang family and the Cui family benefit, so they will naturally spare no effort to destroy them.
Take the market as an example, and shipping, where the princes are the ones in this place can get some benefits. You know that those officials have long been red, and it is correct for you to decisively give up the Western shops.
Those people have so many opportunities to make secret tricks. The family has helped you block it. I just didn't tell you. Xianglou was so easy to be burned by a fire. Why is there anyone willing to help her? This is jealousy, and I can destroy it if I can't get it."
"Did I cause trouble for you?"
Zilan suddenly realized that she was not that powerful, and that her family and relatives had been protecting her.
"No, there is no trouble. The benefits and risks have always existed on each other. No one can do it as long as the benefits are good. If you get the benefits, you can't behave well.
It’s like I got my mother’s dowry and there was no shortage of money, but I had to do this job myself, and I had to learn to deal with the underestimation and difficulties of the managers. This is the same truth.
I tell you these things to make you understand that the outside world is not peaceful. If you go out, you will encounter some rumors and be prepared in your heart."
"I remember, no wonder my family always reminded me to bring Su Xin and Qiong Xin with me when I go out. My uncle gave me more than 20 guards, and my sister Shuhui didn't need such guards. But I have so many. I always thought it was because I was a girl and kept running out. It turned out that they were protecting me, but they hid it from me."
Cui Hao held the person in his arms and comforted him, "They really love you and hope you are happy. And you are worthy of everyone's doing this. Why do relatives say so clearly? Their hearts are the most sincere, and this is the most important thing, right?"
"Yes, I remember that I will pay attention to my attention when I go out. I will not listen to their nonsense, and you are not allowed to listen.
You are my man. You promised to be nice to me all your life and don’t beware of me. If you have any dissatisfaction, you can tell me directly. If I did something wrong, I will admit it and correct it. I am not an self-righteous person.”
"I know that saying this to you is to make you think about it. There are always some bad intentions outside. If you encounter it, you will pay attention to it. We mankind are there outside, so you don't have to worry about it."
Cui Hao kissed her forehead and ate tofu while she was in a mess, hehe! She didn't react.
