Chapter 111: Family Affairs
"You two are fine. With this jade pendant, it can be regarded as a decision on your family affairs, and no one will disagree with you being together. Old lady Zeng smiled.
"Really?" Li Jun asked with a smile, with a bright smile on his face, "Neither grandfather nor father will object?"
Although he never cared about what his grandfather and father meant, all he cared about was what his grandfather meant. But in the end, it's still his family, and they can still take care of his affairs.
Although he likes Xin'er and always wants to marry Xin'er, if there is less resistance, they will be able to get together more smoothly, which is naturally a good thing.
I didn't expect Grandpa Tai to say such things so firmly. After all, now that grandpa speaks, grandfather and father may not both listen. But grandpa is not a person who can talk casually, as long as grandpa says it, it is naturally true.
I don't know what this pair of dragon and phoenix jade pendants means, is there any other meaning?
"You're a little childish now. The old man laughed. "Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, and the elders can control you in everything. ”
looked straight at Li Jun, but it was a little deep. All these years have passed, and this child has grown up! He has lived up to his trust.
His sons and grandsons were older, and they had many ideas, and they didn't listen to him anymore. But children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, so go with them! He is also old, and it is impossible to follow them all the time.
They always have to live their own lives, and they have to face what they should face. He couldn't help this Li family shelter from the wind and rain anymore. But he can't manage other people's affairs, and he can still manage Jun'er's children's affairs.
"I know how good my grandfather is to me. ”
"Xin'er is a good girl. You have to treat her well and don't let her down. You and your grandfather swore that no matter where you sit in the future, no matter what kind of position you have, you will not be able to live up to her. ”
Li Jun was a little stunned, he didn't expect that his grandfather would make him swear from childhood to adulthood. Grandpa didn't let him swear by anything, although he didn't want to, but he thought it was a little strange. Besides, he doesn't care what he looks like. It's still him, how could he live up to his heart because of his high position.
He actually didn't want to be an official, he lived an ordinary life very well, and he didn't have much ambition. I don't want to be in a high position. Presumably, the heart is more willing to do business. And not to do what the official lady is. Everyone in the world thinks it's good to be an official, but he never wanted to be a big official.
Anyway, he doesn't want to be an official in this life, and he doesn't have to worry about eating and drinking. And as long as there are many people in the family who are officials, no one dares to bully him.
"Grandpa, I believe he is really good to me, no need to swear anything. Su Ling said with a smile. She didn't expect that her grandfather would make Li Jun swear. For her, it really wasn't needed. Whether a person is sincere or not has nothing to do with whether or not he swears.
She never believed in any oaths. The oath is like the handwriting on the yellow sand of the desert. No matter how sincere it is at that time, no matter how loud it is. But it doesn't mean forever.
Maybe one day, when a gust of wind passes, it really disappears, and there is nothing left.
So, there really isn't much to believe in the oath. If she had to believe, she would have believed without an oath. If she doesn't believe in a person, no matter how solemnly she swears, she won't believe it!
"You kid! Grandpa is so good to you!"
If the oath can really bind a person's words and deeds, then everyone in the world will be less troubled. Su Ling smiled.
"I really don't believe it. The old man laughed. He is at this age, he has seen more things and experienced more things, where can he still believe in the so-called oath.
After sitting for a while, seeing that Grandpa was a little tired, Li Jun took Su Ling and left Luqi Garden first. The phoenix jade pendant on his waist also swayed gently as he walked, and Su Ling held it in his hand and rubbed it gently.
This jade is really good-looking, and the water color is very good. Even though she doesn't know much about jade, she really thinks it's beautiful. looked at the piece on Li Jun's waist, and felt that the two jade pendants complemented each other.
"I didn't expect Grandpa Tai to be so easy to pass!" Su Ling sighed. She thinks that her grandfather is really good to her, and sometimes there seems to be no reason for it.
But she has also known her grandfather for the past few years, and she has seen her many times in the past few years. Occasionally, she would feel that when her grandfather looked at her, he didn't see her, but through her, looking at another person. Perhaps, she is an old man like her grandfather!
If this is the case, it can also explain why Grandpa Tai is so good to her.
"Yes!" Li Jun also sighed a little. I thought that I would have to persuade Grandpa Tai to agree! I really didn't expect Grandpa Tai to be so happy. And grandpa even said that other people would not dare to oppose it anymore! If that is the case, it would be great. "We will never have any objections to our family affairs again. ”
"Can Grandpa Tai really have full discretion?" Su Ling still had some doubts. Although she didn't think that grandpa Tai would talk big, there was always a strange feeling. It is said that family affairs are the orders of parents, and the words of matchmakers. The so-called parents' orders are just parents.
Although in addition to the parents, the elders above are not unable to make decisions, but the main ones are the parents. Although Grandpa Tai is also an elder, he is always separated by two generations.
"Since Grandpa Tai said this, it should be true! Don't think about it. Li Jun shook Su Ling's hand. "We might as well prepare for marriage earlier!"
"Does it need to be so early?" Speaking of getting married, Su Ling felt that it was too sudden, they hadn't been together for long! Are they going to get married? Besides, she hasn't met his parents yet! How can they get married!
Even if you really want to get married, it is impossible to be in Jiangnan. His family is all in the capital except for his grandfather! I'm afraid they are going to the capital to get married!
When it came to going to the capital, she instinctively rejected it. She really didn't want to go to the capital, and she always felt palpitations, although it seemed too ridiculous because of a nightmare.
But I instinctively felt rejection in my heart, and I didn't want to go to the capital at all. Li Jun's family is in the capital, maybe he will enter the court as an official in the future, how can she really never go to the capital.
"I don't think it's too early! I can't wait to marry you right now. Li Jun smiled. "And it's just preparations! There's still a lot to do in between! Shouldn't you also prepare a dowry? I don't care if you have a dowry or not, but you don't want to be laughed at. ”
Su Ling smiled and stopped talking, she really had to prepare a dowry, she had been busy making money in the past few years, and she had never thought about getting married, where would she prepare the dowry!
Indeed, a woman's dowry should not be less, and it should always be as much as possible. The dowry is a woman's face, and if the dowry is small, it will make people laugh. But I always feel a little strange to make a dowry for myself.
It's a pity that she doesn't have any elders around her now, and no one will help her with this!
"I'm just saying, don't stress too much. You don't need too much dowry, I won't even be able to support you! If you need someone to help, you can find Uncle Zhang. Uncle Zhang's family is my mother's dowry, and Uncle Zhang is a trustworthy person. ”
"I know. Su Ling nodded. Although she didn't know that Uncle Zhang was his mother's companion, she always knew that he trusted Uncle Zhang very much. In fact, Zhang Boren is also really good. It was Uncle Zhang who rescued her on the boat in the first place!
Back at Lanyue Pavilion, Li Jun went to go about his own business, and Su Ling went to talk to Tiange and Nightingale. The doto was doing needlework, and the nightingale was sitting and eating.
The nightingale looked at Su Ling twice, and then saw the extra jade pendant on her waist, and the nightingale looked at the jade pendant carefully. "This jade pendant is really beautiful! It was given by the old lady Zeng?"
"Why are your eyes so sharp!" Su Ling smiled helplessly, the nightingale had also observed too carefully! "It's true that my grandfather gave it away. ”
"Phoenix, it seems that Old Lady Zeng has other meanings. The nightingale looked at Su Ling with a narrow face, "It seems that something good is coming!"
"What are you talking about!" Su Ling became a little shy. "It's still early! Don't think about what you don't have. ”
"Where will it be early! Old Lady Zeng has already agreed. The nightingale smiled. "I'm really going to congratulate you, waiting to drink your and Childe's wedding wine. ”
Su Ling sat down, Tiange has been sitting quietly, his subordinates are constantly doing needlework, but they don't say a word, Su Ling glanced at the past a little strangely. Hato's head was down, and he couldn't see his expression clearly.
She suddenly remembered her previous feelings, she always felt that people like Tiange were arranged by Li Jun's side, and they might have been prepared for Li Jun from the beginning. Thinking like this, she was also a little depressed in her heart, she didn't know if Li Jun would really treat her wholeheartedly.
If there was still some messy Yingying Yanyan around him, she would definitely not tolerate it. I don't know if Tiange has other thoughts about Li Jun. In her opinion, Tiange is really very dedicated to serving Li Jun. But it doesn't say anything.
At least she didn't think that Li Jun had other thoughts about Tiange, if she had, she would have it a long time ago. I have lived in a courtyard for so many years, and I don't see anyone who looks up and looks down every day, if I really want to develop feelings, I should have developed a long time ago, and I really shouldn't wait until today.
"Hato, why don't you speak?" the nightingale glanced at Hato.
Hato looked up, "What did you say?" (to be continued......)
