Chapter 6 The Marriage of the Hidden Reef
The bandit listened to the order and rummaged through the silver taels that he was carrying for a long time, and finally found a piece of silver about one tael or more, and wanted to throw it in front of Lin Long's feet, but thinking of her words and deeds just now, this time he pinched more than one or two pieces of silver and handed it to Lin Long, "This is the smallest piece of silver." ”
Lin Long took it, and then groped in his sleeve for a while, and found out the one or two pieces of silver that Lin Gang gave him wrapped in a small cloth, and after checking it with both hands, he felt the difference, so he stuffed the one or two pieces of silver into the hands of the bandits, and turned his head to look at the iceberg man, "My pastry is only worth two hangings at most, and you have about one more value of it, so it will be regarded as a compensation for my medical expenses, and now we don't owe each other." ”
The iceberg man was frowning at her, but saw that she kept solemnly wrapping the more than one or two pieces of broken silver in the original cloth, and then carefully stuffed it in his sleeve, grabbing the bag of broken pastries in his hand, her eyes seemed to be looking at the footprints on the white carpet, this time she finally looked a little apologetic, but there was a smile in her eyes for some reason. "Are you going to pay me for the carpet?"
As soon as Lin Long heard this, the trace of regret in her eyes immediately disappeared, and when she looked up at the iceberg man again, how could she still have apology in her eyes? "What did this master say? I have said that there is a cause and effect, you are arguing, and the reason why this carpet is soiled is also your responsibility. "It's better to hurry up, the value of this carpet is not something that her little orphan girl can afford," It was not early, and the family was worried about it, so the little woman retired first. ”
Fu Nian was surprised to see that the fierce girl who was begging for compensation just now instantly became gentle and polite, and then jumped out of the carriage as fast as she could, and the beautiful appearance of everyone was just a flash in the pan, and she neatly picked up the oil-paper umbrella that fell on the ground, the umbrella had rotted a corner, she frowned and looked at it, and then walked into the black canopy without looking back.
"This girl is very interesting." He laughed.
"Since the young master of the Fu family is interested, then I let the bandit stone go and recover her, how about it?" The iceberg man had his usual cold look.
Fu Nian sat on the carpet as if you had let me go, then looked at the hem of the iceberg man opposite, and exclaimed, "Ziyang, your clothes?" ”
When the iceberg man heard this, he looked down, and saw that the white hem was stained with a little mud at some point, it must be the masterpiece of the girl just now, his face suddenly became angry, and his eyes suddenly raised, as if he wanted to look at Lin Long's departing back through the distance between the carriage and the space.
Fu Nian joked: "Ziyang, it seems that you are the one who wants to send the bandit stone to recover that girl, but I didn't expect that you will be pecked by geese instead of being pecked by geese, and that girl has two brushes." ”
The iceberg man's brows tightened, and when he heard his friend's gloating voice, he squeezed out two words from between his teeth, "No." ”
And Lin Long, who was rushing towards the door of the house, suddenly felt a chill on his back, I don't know if this coldness came from the wind and rain or from the iceberg man, thinking that he deliberately splashed the muddy water on his feet while he was not paying attention, thinking of his clean nature, the corners of his mouth were slightly pulled, looking at him arrogant or proud, and looking down on people?
Thinking of his younger brother and sister at home, his pace sped up a few points, and many hours had passed since he came out at noon, and he became more and more worried.
In the carriage, the iceberg man changed his new clothes with a cold face, looked at the carpet that was already dirty, and coldly ordered his subordinates to roll it up, and then sat down when it was done, but he was still unhappy in his heart.
The bandit carefully served the tea, and his grandfather just glanced at it with disgust, and then automatically put it away spontaneously and didn't dare to brush the tiger's whiskers again.
Fu Nian was in a happy mood and took a sip of tea, he was not as weird as the person sitting opposite, wasn't this case dirty for a while, and now that it was wiped clean, he still disliked it? "Ziyang, you have the most problems." Suddenly, he seemed to think of something, "I heard that the elders of your family no longer plan to ask the Huo family for marriage?" ”
When the iceberg man thought of this, he said indifferently as if he didn't care about himself, "Grandpa plans to propose family affairs to the Lin family to fulfill the promise of the year." Thinking that before leaving Beijing, my mother strongly opposed it, and my grandmother did not approve of it, and I asked someone to do things and recite scriptures, but I don't know why, my grandfather still had nightmares every night, and he was getting thinner and thinner, and finally his father came forward to accept the marriage for him.
That night, his father said to him: "Xu Yao, you are the eldest son and grandson of the Ye family, you have to take responsibility, now your grandfather is sick in bed, why don't you marry the daughter-in-law of a broken family, our Ye family is already extremely rich and noble, there is no need to marry high, besides, this is not bad, go back and persuade your mother to stop clinginging, the girl of the Huo family is not necessarily good, how good can the girl be without mother's discipline?" ”
He didn't refute his father's words, he took his hand as a courtesy, the threshold of the Ye family is really not something that the daughter of the broken family can enter casually, but what does this matter to him, he just asked him to marry and didn't say that he wanted him to spend his time to pamper and love, and the position of the wife of the Lin family in the middle of the road I don't know if it is too early to say whether she can sit firmly.
Fu Nian knew his thoughts as soon as he saw his expression, and sighed: "You are really cool enough, then the Lin family is only afraid that they will fight endlessly because of the rich marriage smashed down from the sky, you might as well stand on the shore and watch others fight to the death." ”
Ye Xuyao smiled coldly, "Then what does it have to do with me?" They only see the wealth in their eyes, but they don't see the hidden reef under the wealth, as long as they hit their heads and break the blood flow, then they know what wealth is. The mockery on the iceberg's face grew stronger and stronger.
At this time, the capital is already full of flowers, but the atmosphere in the Xiangyang Hou Mansion is sluggish, but this is only in the Chunhui Garden and the Chrysanthemum Garden, and the other places are full of flowers, and the future grandchildren and daughters-in-law of the Ye family are hotly discussed.
"Have you already sent the iceman to the Lin family to propose marriage?"
