Chapter 562 You are a rebellious girl
Wang Xiao turned sideways and glanced at his father.
"I didn't say I was waiting for Cunxi, why do you care so much about me?"
"The main reason why I can't get married is that you are incapable. Otherwise, with the status of my Wang family, it would be easy for me to marry anyone I want."
Finally, Wang Xiao added: "Except for the other few."
During the reign of Emperor Taizong Li Shimin, intermarriage between the five surnames and seven families was prohibited.
Therefore, the best choice for the girls from these families is to marry a prince and become a princess.
Or they can marry someone from another family, take care of their husband and children and become the mother of the family.
The worst possibility is to enter the imperial palace and become a concubine, being locked up in the deep palace for the rest of your life and never allowed to come out.
But there are always people who are willing to marry into the palace for the benefit of their family.
"You unfilial daughter!"
"Ahem, ahem, ahem, ahem, you still dare to say that?"
"I have put a lot of effort into your marriage, but what about you?"
"You neither agree nor disagree. Every time you're about to agree, either the other party's family suddenly changes their mind, or the other party's son dies in a bloody disaster!"
"You and that jerk Li Cunxi... cough cough cough cough...did you collude with each other to make me angry?"
Wang Lai, the head of the Wang family, coughed for a long time and completely lost the desire to urge this unfilial daughter to get married.
He knew that after Li Cunxi went south, he forbade Wang Xiao and Li Cunxi to write to each other, resulting in the two not seeing each other for three years.
This caused a big rift in the relationship between the two.
It was also he who prevented the two from communicating in the name of the head of the Wang family, leaving the two childhood sweethearts with no chance to be together.
But, is he wrong?
Li Cunxi was the son of Li Ai, the Duke of Huang. Li Ai died but his son was still alive. He was definitely the descendant of a traitor. If he hadn't been lucky in recent years and became a high-ranking official, his life would have been over!
Was Wang Lai wrong to stop his daughter from getting close to a vagrant who might be a loser?
Now, these two people don’t get along openly, but they are secretly joining forces to trip him up!
"Speak, speak quickly!"
"When did you get in touch with Li Cunxi?"
"Was it when he returned to Taiyuan?"
Wang Xiao turned his face to the side.
"No, please don't frame me, Dad. Am I that kind of person, your daughter?"
Wang Lai glared, tilted his neck back and fell backwards.
"You are an unfilial daughter, an unfilial daughter!"
"It's fine if you stay with Li Cunxi, but why do you make your father lose face so many times?"
Wang Lai felt miserable.
Ever since Li Cunxi returned to Taiyuan and met Wang Xiao.
The things that he was most worried about as a father happened one after another.
First, Wang Xiao was unwilling to marry Wei Zi. But only half a month after Li Cunxi left Taiyuan, someone cut off her little Jiji in a brothel and she became sisters with Wang Xiao on the spot.
The second one is the eldest son of the Lu family. He is a domineering young man after all. He was kidnapped by bandits for only two days and turned into a docile little lamb when he came back.
Not to mention marrying into the Wang family, even the mention of the Wang family would frighten him excessively.
The following families were fine until they met the Nanyang Yin family. After all, their ancestors had produced a figure like Yin Lihua, so they were a famous and prestigious family anyway. Yet they disregarded their dignity and didn't even let them in.
All the families now avoid their family as if they were the plague.
"Dad, please don't frame me. My innocence is also very important, okay?"
"You said that I was involved with Li Cunxi, why don't you show me some evidence?"
"As the saying goes, to catch a thief, you must seize the stolen goods. You can't even produce evidence, so how can you frame the child?" Wang Xiao said.
Wang Lai stood up angrily, pointed at Wang Xiao, and was speechless for a long time.
He was almost pissed off by this rebellious woman.
He looked down on the former Li Cunxi, but he had his own reasons.
Just because of his status as the descendant of an exile, Li Cunxi could not let his daughter marry him even if he had the support of the Di family. As a parent, this was only natural.
What father or mother doesn’t want their daughter to live a good life?
Later, when Li Cunxi became an official, how could he not see that the emperor wanted to appease the Li family?
At that time, if Wang Xiao said he wanted to follow Li Cunxi, he would risk his reputation and go to Chang'an in person to discuss the matter with Li Cunxi.
However, this rebellious girl did not mention it.
He said he would find a good family for this rebellious girl, and she never objected.
then……
There's no after that……
"You rebellious girl."
Wang Lai covered his chest and felt he couldn't breathe.
"My Wang family is good... good..."
He kept trying for a long time but nothing happened.
After all, the Five Surnames and Seven Families were not as powerful as they used to be, and they were not allowed to intermarry with each other. Emperor Taizong then recompiled the clan records, and the so-called wealthy and powerful families were no longer as prestigious as they used to be.
No matter how decadent the Li Tang royal family was, it was still three points higher than the five surnames and seven families.
What's more, Li Cunxi is just one step away from being crowned king.
"Dad, just bear with it and it will pass. It's okay."
"What's okay?"
"Whatever you say is fine, it's my daughter's business."
"Damn it, damn it!"
"Don't worry about me, Dad. I won't marry those people anyway." Wang Xiao sat down casually.
"You heretic..."
Wang Lai felt bitter.
He didn't want to say anything more, so he stood up and turned away.
It's just some hardships. At most, he will have to support Wang Xiao for a few more years. Sooner or later, he will have to be sent to Li Cunxi's mansion.
Walking out of the door, Wang Lai sighed deeply and no longer thought about letting Wang Xiao marry into another family.
After walking a few more steps and entering the yard, Wang Lai remembered something and turned back.
"How did you get in touch with Li Cunxi?"
Wang Xiao lay on the couch without saying a word.
What a joke. How did she get in touch with Li Cunxi? How could she tell that stinky old man Wang Lai?
Otherwise, it would be much more troublesome to contact you in the future.
"That's it, that's all, that's all!"
"Since you are so willing, I will tell Li Cunxi about this even if it costs me my reputation."
"I dare not even think about becoming the Princess of Qin. I will at least make you a concubine."
"Even if you get married, you can't be too angry!"
Wang Lai looked at Wang Xiao helplessly.
When the Youzhou case was solved a few years ago, he married his daughter to Li Cunxi and gave him more dowry. Given the status of the Wang family, it was natural for her to be a lady.
nowadays……
It is said that King Wei Wu Chengsi also intends to be Li Cunxi's supporter. If Li Cunxi himself does not have a favorite candidate, then the future Princess Qin must be Wu Chengsi's daughter.
As for his daughter, the best time had been missed.
"My heart aches!"
"Dad, it's getting late. If you feel sad, just go back and feel sad. Your daughter needs to rest now."
"Okay, I will suppress the discordant voices at home for you, and you can handle the rest on your own."
"I know, Dad."
Wang Lai walked out of the room and sighed to the sky.
The wind is very cold tonight. Winter in Taiyuan seems to have come earlier.
