Follow-up (40) temptation
When Zhu Zhu saw his son stop there, he immediately felt happy in his eyes, and it seemed that there was a play.
He hurriedly chased after his son again, "Son, you also think that the girl in the Xiangyang Hou Mansion is good, right?" I won't lie to you about your father, this girl is quite a match for you, and she was selected by your father after thousands of choices......"
Zhu Zhu said endlessly, of course, how did he get the fruits of this victory, he couldn't say that he had leaked his mouth, after all, snatching relatives was a bit ugly, and Ye Ming's behavior of selling his daughter was quite embarrassing, for the sake of the face of his future daughter-in-law, he naturally had to hide it to the end.
Of course, his face must be greatly enhanced, in front of his son, how can he be a father who thinks he is very cowardly? So he bragged and didn't have half a point of pressure.
When he was still the king of Qi, how could he develop this temperament?
In fact, looking back at the past, if I had to fight for this breath, I might not have hurt my son and suffered for more than 20 years, and it is a lie to say that I don't regret it.
The throne or anything is empty, and the enemy or anything is actually not so important, but it's a pity that I was blind back then, so I wasted my time for decades.
Zhu Zifan's eyebrows were only slightly frowned, as far as he knew, the unmarried girl in the Xiangyang Hou's Mansion was only Ye Manzi, and his eldest daughter Ye Manjun had already married into the Ruyang Palace, and gave birth to an heir, he had been to Ruyang City before returning to Beijing, and naturally he had seen Ye Manzi's sister-in-law.
Ye Manjun gave him the feeling of being like an empty valley orchid, quiet and elegant, fragrant and pleasant, while Ye Manjun seeds were more like thorny roses, beautiful but prickly, and it was not easy to pick them off.
The two sisters have very different personalities, which makes it clear at a glance.
"Marriage book." He spread his palms towards his father.
Even if he has no intention of marrying for the time being, it doesn't mean that he doesn't know that he is not actually popular with the powerful people in the capital, even if he is now quite favored by the emperor, just because he has a father who once tortured and killed his concubine.
So he was very suspicious that his father was bragging, and the Ye family would not agree to give him the only concubine who had not left the cabinet so easily, just from the cautious attitude of Mrs. Xiangyang Hou today, he could see the clues.
Of course, he didn't have any opinions on the young Mrs. Xiangyang Hou, on the contrary, he still had a lot of respect for her, such a cautious attitude was the only way to really regard Ye Manzi's sister-in-law as a sister, otherwise which sister-in-law would defend her sister-in-law like this?
He didn't grow up in the aristocratic circle of the capital, and when he was a child, he also saw examples of powerful families pushing their daughters into the fire pit for the benefit of the family, not to mention that in the frontier, there are many people who sell their sister-in-law to exchange food for their children, and they don't even snort when they are brothers.
Zhu Zhu's face immediately twisted a little, this marriage certificate is really difficult to take out, after all, he took it from the hands of the unsuccessful gentleman, wouldn't this one be missed by showing his son?
"This? This...... I'll put it in my yard, and I'll show it to you another day, if you don't believe it, Ming'er will follow me to Xiangyang Hou's Mansion to see the real chapter. ”
Zhu Zhu found a reason to prevaricate, didn't he just want to maintain his dignity as a father? Why is it so hard? Thinking of this, he felt even more sorrowful.
Zhu Zifan clearly didn't believe his words, "Dad, it's better for my son to find a doctor to show you the pulse of the disease another day, don't daydream, I will worry about my marriage, it's rare to return to Beijing, and my father will enjoy it." ”
With that, he lifted his feet and continued to walk forward.
Zhu Zhi jumped to his feet in anger, no one believed him when he said the truth, is there any reason for this?
"Son, don't go, listen to your father......"
Zhu Zifan's steps did not pause for half a minute this time, but he still responded, "I will believe you when I take out the marriage letter." ”
Zhu Zhu caught up with his son in three steps and two steps, and when he saw his son's soft and hard appearance, he immediately knew that he had no room for bargaining, so he took out the marriage certificate transferred by the gentleman from his cuff and handed it over angrily, "Look at it yourself." ”
Zhu Zifan didn't expect his father to really take out this thing, so it seems that his father is not bragging.
In fact, when he was young, his father was still a tall image in his mind, at least a majestic prince, when did he see his father not stand respectfully?
Later, when the father and son were relegated to the frontier, the hardships of life made the father gradually change his temperament, and it is estimated that he was also a little self-defeating.
Of course, his lust has never changed as always.
Seeing his son take the marriage book over to read, Zhu Zhu muttered, "I didn't lie to you, it is clearly written on it, although your father and I have used some means, but now the girl of the Ye family is really engaged to you, and I also went to the yamen today to completely confirm this marriage......
Speaking of this, he was a little secretly proud, this marriage had passed through the government, even the Ye family had to admit that as long as they insisted on the Yijun Wangfu and did not withdraw from the marriage, Ye Manzi would have to marry.
"If the Ye family dares to withdraw from the marriage, your father will take this marriage certificate and sue the royal ......"
He has thought about the way back, anyway, he has to marry a wife for his son anyway, even if he uses all the means of stealing and abducting.
Zhu Zifan turned a deaf ear to his father's words, his eyes were fixed on Ye Mingsui's seal, is there such a father?
He didn't expect Ye Manzi to have such a father, thinking of the pitiful appearance of the girl in the white room snuggling in his arms today, his heart couldn't help but hurt a little.
"Ye Mingsui is simply not a thing."
He made a cold comment.
"Isn't it? I've never seen such a father, tiger poison doesn't eat children, he actually sold such a good girl, and he is still a person who loves to go shopping in Flower Street and Willow Lane. ”
Although Zhu Zhu himself also likes to go to Flower Street and Willow Lane, he is quite a person who looks down on this behavior, including himself, but he has been like this for more than 20 years, and he doesn't want to change.
If the girl of the Ye family really marries that gentleman, it is estimated that her life will be over.
He felt that he had done a good deed, at least to save a girl from misery for the rest of his life, how good it was to marry his son, as long as he gave birth to a precious grandson, he was willing to give him this daughter-in-law.
But as soon as his voice landed, he noticed that he was a little unplayful, when did his son have such a sense of justice?
He opened his eyes wide and looked up and down, left and right, at his son, was this his son?
Zhu Zifan was uncomfortable by his father, this was the first time such a situation had occurred, so he coughed in disguise, "Dad, what are you looking at?" ”
"Are you my son?" Zhu Zhu said with a suspicious look.
"Boring."
Zhu Zifan showed disdain for his father's question, if he wasn't his son, who else could he be? This dad is really getting older and more alive.
Seeing that his son was about to leave again, Zhu Zhu hurriedly caught up again, "Ming'er followed me to the Xiangyang Marquis Mansion, although they can't rely on this marriage book, but it is more sincere to officially propose a marriage, is your father and I very polite?" ”
He was quite complacent, no matter how he said it, he was once a prince, and this bloodline couldn't be changed.
Zhu Zifan did not answer his father's words directly, but his hand was clenched tightly on the marriage letter.
Even after one night, Ye Manzi still had a little tear stains on her face when she got up, and when she applied yellow to the mirror, she also put on some rouge water and rice to make her complexion look better.
No matter how ruthless she is, Ye Mingsui is still her father, and she gritted her teeth with hatred just thinking of this.
"Is my sister-in-law up?"
The voice of the eldest sister-in-law Lin Long came from outside, Ye Manzi hurriedly put down the rouge water and rice in his hand, signaled the eldest girl to insert the golden step for her, and looked at himself in the mirror after everything was wrong, then he got up and lifted the curtain and walked out of the bedroom, and sure enough, he saw the sister-in-law sitting waiting for her.
"Sister-in-law, are you here?" She smiled and said, at least she couldn't let her family worry about her.
Lin Long carefully looked at this sister-in-law's complexion, how could he not see that she was smiling? What effect will be when the rouge water and rice of Jade Skin Fang are rubbed, she knows very well as the founder.
Standing up and pulling Ye Manzi to sit down, she asked with concern, "Is this still uncomfortable?" ”
Ye Manzi was stunned, covered his face with his hand, and sure enough, he couldn't hide it from his sister-in-law, so he didn't hide it anymore, "When I think of him as my father, I feel sick and uncomfortable." ”
I've heard of poor families selling their sons and daughters, but haven't you heard that someone from a background like her will be sold by her father? I don't know where to put this face when it really goes out? Ye Mingsui is really not worthy of being a father.
"Father-in-law has never done a decent thing, what do you have to do with him? My sister-in-law is from the past, listen to my sister-in-law's advice, don't take this matter to heart, there will be a long time to come. ”
Lin Long actually empathized with Ye Manzi's mood, thinking that when she didn't marry Ye Xuyao, her mother-in-law Quan Meihuan had done a similar move, how uncomfortable her heart was at that time, how uncomfortable Ye Manzi's heart was at this time.
When Ye Manzi heard this, she looked up at Lin Long in surprise, and her memory suddenly returned, obviously remembering her inappropriate actions at the beginning, at that time, for the sake of a Huo Xiangyu, she almost let herself out, not to mention Quan Meihuan, who was Huo Xiangyu's stepmother at the time, I was afraid that she would do something to hurt her sister-in-law's heart.
Thinking of this, she felt a little sad about the end of the world, and put her head on Lin Long's shoulder, "How did my sister-in-law come over at that time?" ”
Looking at it carefully, the relationship between Lin Long and Quan Meihuan is still good, if it were her, I am afraid that she would not be able to forgive such a mother for the rest of her life, just like her father Ye Mingsui, she really wanted to see him for the rest of her life.
Lin Long stroked her hair, "My mother didn't look good at that time, but in the end, it was blood and family, she had the heart to repent, why should I give her another chance?" My sister-in-law said this not to ask you to forgive your father-in-law's actions, but to tell you that you don't need to mind the actions of people who don't love you, and there are still many people in this world who care about you. ”
In fact, the most unpleasant thing for Ye Manzi now is that others persuade her to forgive Ye Mingsui, unless she is a saint, who can forgive such a father? So Lin Long's words were obviously right to her appetite, and she gave a light "um" in approval.
Lin Long saw that she didn't seem to be drilling the horns anymore, so she was a little relieved, because she was worried, she came to visit her early in the morning, what is a young girl, how can she take this matter as a thing when she is older? It's too late to take care of the family.
This is all her experience, after all, there are too many things to worry about now, naturally not as when she was young, and a little big thing is also seen as if it is bigger than the sky.
She had the intention to turn the topic to Zhu Zifan, so now that Ye Manzi's mood was improving, she mentioned it casually, "Sister-in-law, King Yijun saved you yesterday, do you have any other thoughts about him?" ”
Ye Manzi looked up at Lin Long blankly, "What can I think of him?" I am grateful for his righteousness and bravery. ”
"Nothing else?" Lin Long continued to guide without giving up.
Ye Manzi shook his head and said with a strange expression, "I didn't know him before, what can I say about him?" ”
Lin Long couldn't help but want to stroke her forehead and sigh lightly, but she thought that she had been married to Ye Xuyao for a long time before she realized that she cared about him, so now she said that Ye Manzi reacted slowly to love, which was actually equivalent to talking about herself, so she smiled and hugged Ye Manzi and said, "It's nothing, it's just that my sister-in-law thinks that King Yijun is a good person, and if someone marries him in the future, it will be a good thing." ”
Speaking of this, she didn't seem to care about observing Ye Manzi's expression.
Ye Manzi felt a little unhappy when she thought of someone who wanted to marry Zhu Zifan, but she didn't know why she was unhappy, she could only blame it on that she might not like Zhu Zifan very much, so she said lightly, "I'm not interested in who he wants to marry." ”
Seeing this, Lin Long knew that it would be superfluous to say anything today, and he was thinking about how to make this girl interested in Zhu Zifan, if she met a good man this year, she had to hurry up.
Even her husband Ye Xuyao praised Zhu Zifan, which proved that Zhu Zifan was indeed really good, and she didn't want Ye Manzi to miss it.
Now that the mother-in-law does not let go, if Ye Manzi nods and agrees to marry, the marriage will naturally come to fruition, but now it seems that she thinks more simply.
At this time, the curtain was lifted, and Ruzhuang came in to report, "Grandma, the king of Yijun has come to visit." ”
"What?"
Lin Long frowned, Zhu Zifan actually came? So fast?
"Someone came in to report it in front of me, saying that the father and son of the King of Yijun came together." Ruzhuang didn't dare to hide anything, and hurriedly made his words clear.
At this moment, even Ye Manzi heard that Zhu Zifan had come to visit, and he was a little surprised in his heart, what was he doing here?
Yesterday, she only cared about sadness, but only remembered that her mother promised her that she would not marry her to that gentleman, and she didn't know who the follow-up marriage would be.
Lin Long glanced at Ye Manzi's expression of wanting to ask but not knowing how to ask, and a thought changed in his heart, it seemed that what he said didn't make sense, it was better to have a radical method.
After knowing the bottom of her heart, she stood up and tidied up her sleeves, "Sister-in-law, I will go back to my mother-in-law first, and I will go to the front hall to meet the father and son of King Yijun, and later, I will come over to talk to you." ”
"Sister-in-law, are you leaving now?" Ye Manzi hurriedly got up to send him off, and there was reluctance in his words.
Lin Long smiled, "There are distinguished guests coming to the door, how can you not go to socialize a few words?" He patted Ye Manseed's shoulder, and then turned to leave.
Ye Manzi didn't suspect anything else, and saw that the eldest sister-in-law went out, so he planned to turn around and go back to the inner room, but when he saw the towel that the eldest sister-in-law had dropped, he hurriedly picked it up, "Sister-in-law is really, even this can fall." ”
After saying a word, she lifted the curtain with a handkerchief and chased out.
When Lin Long walked out of the gate of Ye Manzi's courtyard, she stopped, and out of the corner of her eye, she saw Ye Manzi chasing after her deliberately dropped handkerchief, and then she spoke, "The arrival of the father and son of the King of Yijun is afraid that it is still related to the marriage of the sister-in-law, you go to report to the old marquis first, and I will go to the wife first." ”
Ruzhuang was a few surprised, why did the grandmother suddenly say this? But she didn't dare to be suspicious, and nodded hurriedly, "The slave will go." ”
Ye Manzi, who was about to step out of the door, subconsciously stopped and hid to the side when she heard her name, secretly listening to Lin Long's words in her ears, and her hand holding the towel couldn't help but tighten.
When was her marriage linked to Zhu Zifan? Her eyes rolled back and forth, although she was not as smart as her eldest sister Ye Manjun Bingxue, but she was not a fool, Zhu Zifan didn't mention marriage yesterday, and suddenly mentioned it now, it is estimated that it is related to her father selling her.
Thinking of this, her hands clenched into fists, and she couldn't calm down anymore, how could she remember to return the handkerchief to Lin Long?
After stomping her feet on the spot, she didn't want to be passive anymore, and hurriedly lifted the hem of her skirt and went to the main hall.
After Lin Long left Ye Manzi's sight, she secretly asked people to follow Ye Manzi, she wanted to know what she would do next?
After secretly arranging it, he hurriedly went to find Ye Zhong's family.
Before she could enter the gate of the main courtyard, Ye Zhong happened to walk out, saw her and said, "I already know, I'm going to meet the father and son of the Yijun King." ”
When she said this, her expression was cold.
Lin Long hurriedly stepped forward to help Ye Zhongshi get on the mule cart, stretched out his hand to close the curtain of the car, and then said after serving tea, "Mother-in-law is angry, yesterday the daughter-in-law and her husband mentioned this matter, and the husband still praised the character of King Yijun, and the daughter-in-law thought that it was better not to reject others at once, and leave room for maneuver in everything." ”
Ye Zhongshi frowned, "Brother Yao said that he is good, he is naturally good, if he goes through the normal procedure, I may not be prejudiced against this marriage, but now that this marriage is embarrassing, I don't want to wronged Sister Zi'er." ”
She's just afraid of a bad reputation.
As soon as Lin Long heard this, he knew that Ye Zhong's heart had softened, so he said again, "Mother-in-law's thinking is naturally reasonable, let's see the sincerity of their visit this time, and it's not too late to reason." ”
