Follow-up (12) on marriage
Gu Xuefei had never been so happy for a moment, this was the first time she had behaved so perfectly in front of her sweetheart, and after finishing speaking, she also winked at Yuzhi behind her.
Yuzhi, who was waiting on the side, immediately understood, stepped forward and curtsy and looked at Lin Dong with a smile and said, "This son, this veil was accidentally dropped by our girl, and I ask the son to return it." ”
This sentence immediately evoked Lin Dong's memory, no wonder he looked at the pair of masters and servants who were slightly familiar, it turned out that they had indeed communicated before yesterday, and suddenly he pointed at Yuzhi with surprise on his face and said, "It turned out to be you." Then he boldly looked at Gu Xuefei, who bowed her head shyly.
"Did the champion recognize the slave?" Yuzhi is still convinced of her own girl's vision, no matter how you look at it, this new champion is a loyal and gentle man, much stronger than those high-ranking disciples who have no one in their eyes and have no great ability.
No wonder even his wife has changed her mind, a person like her who was born as a maid has always been the most sensitive to the changes in the mood of her master.
"It turns out that Brother Dong and Miss Gu have already intersected." Lin Qi's interest was even stronger.
"It's a one-sided relationship." Lin Dong generously admitted that when he looked up that day, the face that looked at him turned out to be Gu Xuefei, but he had always been influenced by Confucianism, and it was not good to always remember other girls, so he didn't have too many associations when he saw him again yesterday, for fear that it would be bad to surprise other girls.
"Thank you so much for that day." Gu Xuefei saluted again and thanked her, "If it weren't for the champion who picked up the little woman's scarf, if he really wanted to flow out, I was afraid that the little girl's reputation would not be guaranteed." ”
A girl from a family like her, she has always had to take care of her belongings carefully, otherwise she will be picked up by someone with a heart and arranged a joke that is not in her ears, and her reputation will be gone, and such a risk cannot be taken. But knowing this, that day in the restaurant, she deliberately left the square towel for Lin Dong to pick up, and wanted to get acquainted with Lin Dong, but she was not bold enough at that time, and Lin Dong was a nerd, so this idea naturally failed to come true, but it was impossible for her to tell people about this little scheming, and even Yuzhi, who was closest to her, thought that she was unintentionally lost.
"It's a trivial matter, why should a girl worry about it?" Lin Dong smiled and helped Gu Xuefei.
"In my opinion, this is fate." The more Lin Qi looked at Gu Xuefei, the more satisfied he became, if their Lin family could marry a girl from such a background as the housewife, then they would be able to gain a better foothold in the capital, which was a good thing for the Lin family, which was now on the rise.
Thinking about it like this, she wants to match this marriage even more.
Gu Xuefei blushed and secretly glanced at Lin Qi, she was naturally very happy in her heart, she knew a little about the deeds of the second girl of the Lin family, of course, she had also heard the rumors of a stepsister marrying a stepbrother, although the world criticized this, she felt that this was the true temperament of pursuing love, and in private she was envious of Lin Qi's daring to love and hate.
In this regard, Lin Qi made her more envious than Lin Long, after all, she could tie the knot with her sweetheart, and how many boudoir girls didn't even dare to think about it.
Lin Qi saw Gu Xuefei's face flushing, and her own brother gave her a look and signaled her not to say these ambiguous words, she glared at Lin Dong, and deliberately gave her a look at the maid beside her, the other party was very clever, and immediately stepped forward and whispered, "Grandma, Mrs. is looking for grandma everywhere......"
"Since my mother is looking for me, then I'll go over and take a look, eighty percent of them are worried about my safety." Lin Qi smiled, "Brother Dong, I'll come when I go." Reaching out to hold Gu Xuefei's hand, "Miss Gu, let's talk about it later." ”
Lin Dong followed her all the way into the Xiangyang Hou Mansion, where did he not know that the eldest girl who had just reported was always there, and he had never seen her walk away, and the matter of this mother looking for the second sister was made up by the second sister, and she frowned and was about to call her second sister.
Lin Qi turned his head and glared at his younger brother, then turned around and left without looking back, but he remembered to leave a few maids behind to prevent Gu Xuefei's reputation from being damaged.
Lin Dong's words couldn't be spit out in his throat, so he could only stand in place crying and laughing, looking at Gu Xuefei with a little apology, "My second sister has always been like this, Miss Gu doesn't mind......"
"How so?" Gu Xuefei was happy, she didn't expect Lin Qi to create an opportunity for her, this was really an unexpected joy, compared to Lin Long, who she thought was easy to get along with, this Lin Qi won her heart more.
The two glanced at each other and couldn't help laughing, and the atmosphere immediately became more harmonious.
Lin Qi, who left, quickly found her eldest sister at the banquet, and saw that Lin Long was leaning over to talk to Ye Zhong's family, she quietly stepped forward to approach the eldest sister and whispered, "Sister, you come with me." Without waiting for Lin Long to reply, he raised his head and whispered to Ye Zhongshi and smiled, "Aunt in-law, borrow my sister for a while." ”
"You girl, what are you polite to me?" Ye Zhongshi smiled and made a gesture to go and go.
"I know that my aunt is the best." Lin Qi has always had a sweet mouth, and the intimacy aroused made Ye Zhong's smile even more.
Lin Long was pulled up by his sister and apologized to Ye Zhong, "Mother-in-law, I'll see what the hell this girl is doing, here's mother-in-law will deal with it first, and I'll be back later." ”
"Don't worry, I'm here, there's no chaos." Ye Zhongshi said with a smile.
Lin Long was relieved to let her sister pull her out, but because of the large number of people at the table, she was not good at asking questions, and as soon as she went outside, she hurriedly said, "Qi'er, why are you pulling me in such a hurry?" ”
"Sister, I want to tell you something, but before I say it, you just come with me." Lin Qi also deliberately sold Guanzi.
Lin Long looked suspicious, he didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in his sister's gourd, but in the past two years, his sister's temperament has been much calmer than before, so she didn't plan to stop her, "Don't go in such a hurry, be careful of the fetus in your womb, can I still stop you from ......"
"Sister, if you don't hurry up, you're going to miss a good show." Lin Qi replied as he sped up.
Lin Long's doubts became more and more numerous, what is my sister planning to do?
Who knows, when the two of them were about to reach the corner, Lin Qi suddenly stopped her steps, fortunately, she had been paying attention to her sister's actions, so she didn't bump into her head, and was about to say a few words to make her sister remember for a long time, but she heard her sister's voice that was not big but had a little excitement, "Sister, look over there." ”
When she heard this, she didn't know what her sister wanted to see for herself, but she still turned her head to look at the past with her eyes suddenly wide and stunned.
I saw that her own brother, who had always been unpretentious to women, was actually talking to a young woman with a smile on his face at this moment, and it could be seen that he was in a very good mood now, and even when the two were chatting energetically, they could see Lin Dong's slightly raised eyebrows.
As for the young girl, she couldn't see her face because her back was on her, but the goose-yellow dress was very familiar, and she couldn't recognize this person who had visited her before?
The girl of the Xuanping Marquis Mansion, she immediately guessed her identity in her heart.
She stood in the corner and stared at them like that, but they didn't realize it, what did that mean?
"Sister, you see, our brother has finally opened his mind and knows how to please other girls." Lin Qi's excited whisper sounded in his ears again, "Sister, I see that these two people are playing, whose family is this girl?" I don't say sister, you can't guess......"
"The girl of the Xuanping Marquis Mansion, her name is Xuefei." Lin Long interrupted her sister's words with a smile, and sure enough, she successfully saw her sister's expression that she could swallow an egg when she opened her mouth, and she pulled her sister to hide in the corner of the wall, so that the two people over there would not find out that they were peeping.
"Sister, when did you know?" Lin Qi came back to his senses and asked in a whisper, but his expression was slightly depressed, he thought he could scare the eldest sister, but now he knew that he was the one who knew at the latest.
"Not long ago, Mrs. Xuanping Marquis led her to visit me." Lin Long didn't plan to hit his sister too much, and immediately briefly said what happened before.
Lin Qi suddenly realized, so he knocked on his head, "Look at my elm head, she is today's guest, how can you not recognize ......her, sister?"
Lin Long hurriedly pulled down his sister's "self-abuse" hand, "Okay, people often say that you are stupid for three years when you are pregnant, you are just pregnant, and it will be even more stupid to knock again, when my brother-in-law comes back from his errand, I don't know how to explain to him how you become a fool." ”
"Sister, you make me happy again." Lin Qi protested, but compared to the sisters' bickering, what was in front of her was the big thing, and she sneakily pulled her sister to peek at the situation over there, "Sister, you see how compatible they are, our brother is now the champion, and the girl in the Xuanping Marquis Mansion is a famous lady, in my opinion, this is really a match made in heaven, and a good marriage that can't be found with a lantern, as long as we come to the door to propose, the Xuanping Marquis Mansion will agree to it as soon as possible......"
At the moment, her eyes seemed to be dreaming.
Lin Long knocked over with a chestnut, woke Lin Qi up from her sweet dream, and saw her sister looking at her, so she said, "I said, can you think long-term and deeper?" Their family agreed to marry their daughter, so our family had to marry her? Qi'er, this child's family affairs are in a hurry, what if there is something wrong with this girl from the ancient family? After we get married, it will be too late for us to find out, which is related to the happiness of my brother's life, and it is also related to the major event of our Lao Lin family's inheritance, and we must not be careless. ”
"Sister, don't you like this ancient girl?"
"It's not a question of whether we are optimistic or not, but we don't really understand Miss Gu's personality now, how can we know whether she is suitable for Brother Dong? Is it suitable to enter our Lin family as a housewife? ”
"Sister, I think the two of them are quite suitable, men and women are good-looking, a match made in heaven, the key is that Brother Dong likes it."
Lin Qi argues for her own brother, her sister sometimes likes to complicate things, the combination of these two loves is better than blind marriage and dumb marriage, right? She is happy now, and she is even more glad for her persistence, otherwise she would have married someone she didn't love, and now she is afraid of washing her face with tears every day.
Lin Long has never been an emotional person, just look at her original agreement to marry Ye Xuyao, there is not much emotional element in it, even if the husband and wife are loving and harmonious now, but it can't hide their respective purposes for getting married, "Qi'er, you think too simply, Brother Dong's wife is related to the rise of our Lin family, I would rather marry him a suitable woman from a low-income family than choose an unsuitable woman from a high-ranking family......"
"Sister, listen to me, now that our brother has finally come out, how can he go to a low-door girl? There is no loss of identity. Lin Qi said, "Our family finally looked forward to this opportunity, after moving the marriage of the younger brother to the palace test, didn't it also save to marry a decent girl who can afford to support the door?" This ancient girl is from a good background and good-looking, and it is rare that she has a good temperament, and on this basis, I strongly advocate setting her. ”
Lin Long's brows furrowed even tighter, although she also had a very good impression of Gu Xuefei, but this girl didn't give her the feeling of being at home at first sight like Su Miaojue back then, so she still has reservations. But when she raised her eyes and saw her brother's smiling eyes, she hesitated a little, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that Lin Dong had a good impression of Gu Xuefei.
She really couldn't bear to do it, but she hurriedly decided to get married without an in-depth understanding, which is not her usual style.
Taking a deep breath, she said, "Have you considered Erniang?" ”
Lin Qi was peeking in, and suddenly heard his sister's question, and hurriedly turned his head to look at the eldest sister with a serious expression, "Erniang will definitely agree to this marriage, don't you know that she dreams of marrying a high-ranking girl for her brother, this ancient girl doesn't meet Erniang's standards......"
"Let me ask you, what is Erniang's origin?" Lin Long interrupted his sister's words.
Lin Qi stood dumb on the spot, what is Lin Lu's background? As long as you pay attention to the gossip of the Lin family, everyone knows that her background is not good, which is the most criticized. Now Lin Dong is the top student in high school, I am afraid that Lin Lu's background will be brought out again, after all, these gossip high-ranking families and ordinary people like to hear about it.
Lin Long saw that his sister was coming back to her senses, so her expression softened, "Erniang's background has always been her biggest weakness, how many people can really look at her without a trace of pride and prejudice?" After a pause, "This ancient girl is of noble birth and has been trained by the court since she was a child, do you think she can accept Erniang, the future mother-in-law, without any guilt?" I look at the suspension. What Erniang paid for us, we can't forget it even today, if we can't be a woman who really respects Erniang, don't think about entering the door of our Lin family. ”
was poured down from the head by his sister with a basin of cold water, Lin Qi's mind calmed down, he thought about the problem too superficially before, but he didn't take his second mother into account, "Sister, I was too excited for a while and didn't think much about it, but I think this ancient girl shouldn't be the kind of person who has a set in front of her face, and she can't deny that she is not suitable for Brother Dong just because she is of noble birth, right?" ”
"That's why I said, we'll have to take a closer look." Lin Long concluded, "Just because Brother Dong treats her differently, I will look down on her and hope that she will not let us down." ”
"Sister, I knew you wouldn't beat mandarin ducks." Lin Qi clasped his sister's arm affectionately.
Lin Long pinched his sister's nose, but his eyes looked at the two over there again, with thoughtful eyes in his eyes.
The two sisters were also quiet when they left, and they did not alarm Lin Dong and Gu Xuefei.
At this time, the banquet has already been half in Thailand.
When Lin Qi sat down, Quan Meihuan hurriedly pulled her and asked, "Why are you here now?" This banquet has been eaten to a great extent. ”
"Something delayed." Lin Qi replied in a low voice, and did not mention the matter of Lin Dong and Gu Xuefei, isn't she clear how many catties and taels her own mother has? It's better for her mother to mix less with this matter, and in the end, she won't be a person inside and out.
Over the years, she has the best relationship with her mother among the three sisters and brothers, but even so, she can still tell it very clearly, the main mother of the Lin family is Erniang Lin Lu's family, so her mother can't go past Erniang in the affairs of the Lin family, otherwise the family will be restless.
"You have to be careful, this is just pregnant, if there is a case, I will see how you explain it to your son-in-law." Quan Meihuan said worriedly.
"Mother, don't worry, I'm not the first child, I have my own measure." Lin Qi said with a smile, even if she is impatient, but this is the concern from her family, and she has always been very useful.
Quan Meihuan saw her like this and knew that she didn't listen to her words, it's okay, it's useless to talk more, just pay more attention to yourself, so she didn't mention this matter anymore, her eyes just slipped past Gu Guo's family, she took her daughter's hand again, motioned for her to come closer, and said in a low voice, "Have you seen the concubine of the Xuanping Marquis Mansion?" I think this girl is really good, and it would be a good thing if I could promise you a brother......"
"What? Mother also takes a fancy to her? Lin Qi said with a look of surprise.
"Also?" Quan Meihuan also looked at her daughter in surprise, "What? You've seen her. ”
"It's not a coincidence, I just saw her outside, and I have a pretty good impression of her, she is knowledgeable and polite, and she is also compatible with Brother Dong." Lin Qi said with a smile.
Quan Meihuan said happily, "I see that is the same, how many girls have I seen tonight, she is the most suitable for her eyes, Brother Dong married her, it is really a beautiful thing......
Lin Qi covered his mouth with a smile, "This matter hasn't been left yet, mother, you're thinking too long." ”
Quan Meihuan's smile suffocated, and she looked her daughter up and down, "What do you mean?" ”
"You and I don't have to say anything about this marriage, my sister has to have the final say." Lin Qi waved his hand and said, "My sister didn't nod, no one can be the master, Brother Dong has always listened to my sister the most, followed by Erniang, and then it's my turn, so if this marriage can be successful, my sister is the key." ”
Quan Meihuan abandoned her children and remarried, so she has the least voice in the minds of her children, Quan Lu's is not a biological mother after all, and she always feels a little afraid of doing things, so Lin Long, the eldest daughter, has the most say in the affairs of the Lin family.
The hard days of those years created the strong character of the sister and brother, but at the same time, it also established Lin Long's absolute prestige in the Lin family, and the eldest sister is like a mother, which is probably what it means.
When Quan Meihuan heard her youngest daughter's big truth, the look in her eyes dimmed a lot, her own son wants to marry a wife, can't she, who is a mother-in-law, even say a word? couldn't help but complain, "Brother Dong is out of my belly, can I still harm him?" ”
"Mother, are you going to be confused again?" Lin Qi hurriedly intercepted her words, and said with a serious expression, "Don't say this quickly, let my sister and brother Dong hear it, do you still want to be good?" If you really care about Brother Dong so much, you shouldn't have left in the first place, if it weren't for the hard support of my sister and Erniang, you would still be saying these words here? The grass on the grave of my brother is only taller than yours. ”
My mother is not good at this, and if she doesn't beat for three days, she will go to the beam to uncover the tiles, for fear that others will not know her past black history.
"I, I'm ......" Kwon Meihuan was dizzy and crying, and when her daughter said this, her heart suddenly felt uncomfortable.
"Today is Brother Guang'er's full moon banquet, if you cry here, how will my sister behave?" Lin Qi looked around, and hurriedly whispered to persuade his mother, "Okay, okay, I said too much just now, mother, don't take it to heart, anyway, listen to me, don't interfere in the matter of Brother Dong's wife, otherwise the person who can't please you in the end must be you." After a pause, he said, "My sister said that the wife married by Brother Dong must respect Erniang, and whoever does not respect Erniang is not qualified to enter our Lin family." ”
Kwon Meihuan looked at her little daughter with wide eyes and disbelief, "Did your sister really say that?" ”
These words sounded more painful to her than heartbreaking, her biological daughter actually thought about an outsider in every way, she was the one who gave birth to her.
Lin Qi nodded, and said in a heavy tone, "Mother, Erniang's efforts over the years, if you don't see it, it doesn't mean that it doesn't exist, she is now the head mother of the Lin family, and a daughter-in-law who disrespects her mother-in-law marries into the door is definitely not the blessing of my brother, nor is it the blessing of my Lin family." ”
No matter how optimistic she is about Gu Xuefei, if Gu Xuefei can't pass this level, then everything is, and everything is prosperous, which is the foundation of revitalizing the family business.
Quan Meihuan really sat in place honestly this time, eating the tasteless dishes in front of her with blank eyes, and all these bitter fruits were brewed by her.
Lin Qi also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, his mother's consciousness is not bad, but this brain has to be confused from time to time, which makes people worry.
The end of the full moon banquet also went quite smoothly, and no one made any moths, so Lin Long was full of smiles when he saw off the guests.
Gu Guo and his daughter Gu Xuefei came over to say goodbye to Lin Long, and it happened that Lin Lu also paced over.
Seeing this, Lin Long took the opportunity to pull his second mother over and said to the Gu family's mother and daughter, "Mrs. Gu, Miss Gu, this is my second mother's ......."
"Mrs. Ye, we have met with Mrs. Lin." Gu Guo smiled kindly.
Gu Xuefei pursed her lips and smiled beside her mother, saying hello to Lin Lu's family.
The reason why Lin Lu's family came over was to see Gu Xuefei again, for this young girl, her good impression increased again and again, and after nodding to Gu Xuefei, she looked at Lin Long with a smile, "Mrs. Gu is not wrong, we met by fate before the banquet." ”
The smile on Lin Long's face was suffocated, and then everything returned to normal, "It turns out that we have all met, but I have done it too much." ”
"Mrs. Ye's kindness, how can it be such an extra move?" Gu Guo said with a smile, and affectionately pulled Lin Lu to speak, "Mrs. Lin, we'll get together another day." ”
After this banquet, she can see that Lin Long has a lot of respect for her, the second mother who was born as a prostitute, and it can be seen from the seat that Quan Meihuan's biological mother is not as high as Lin Lu's seat, and Lin Long also gave her a special solemn introduction to Lin Lu's before, which once again shows that Lin Lu's name is not in vain in the Lin family.
can become the main mother of a house, won't she even have this little vision? So she changed her previous slightly frivolous and polite attitude, and instead socialized with Lin Lu's affectionately. Since she has the heart to promise her daughter to Lin Dong, she can't make a high profile.
The Lin family is not as easy to handle as she imagined, but even so, the Lin family, which lacks foundation, still has to rely on them to Xuanping Houfu, which is a good thing for her daughter, and it is not ashamed to marry into the Lin family.
"That's a certainty, a certain ......" Lin Lu's impression of Gu Guo's is also quite good.
The two have the same purpose, and they really see each other at this time.
Quan Meihuan, who was not far away, saw this scene, and the uncomfortable energy in his heart turned upwards one by one, and he couldn't wait to step forward to replace Lin Lu's position.
Lin Qi glanced at her biological mother, and hurriedly pulled her to prevent her from going to bad things, sometimes people have to have self-knowledge, and her mother just lacks this self-knowledge.
"I see that this ancient girl also has a lot of respect for your second mother, it seems that this marriage can be successful." Kwon Mi Ring Road.
"Mother, I said this, don't worry about it." Lin Qi said impatiently, how can my mother be an elm head, such a simple truth can't be explained.
Quan Meihuan closed her mouth unhappily, feeling extremely wronged.
Seeing off the people of the Gu family, Lin Long sent a few more extremely heavy guests, and then handed over the task of sending off the guests to the next person, and turned around and walked back with Lin Lu's family.
Lin Lu smiled and whispered what happened to Lin Dong to Lin Long.
Lin Long suddenly stopped, with unconcealed joy in his eyes, "Really? Make no mistake, right? ”
"Can't be wrong, a waiter Mo secretly told me today, I have also seen the sheets, there is nothing wrong, Brother Dong has really grown up, it seems that Imperial Doctor Zhang's medicine really works." Lin Lu couldn't help but be happy.
Originally, she was extremely worried that Lin Dong would not be humane in the future, what should she do? The incense of the Lin family can't be broken, and Lin Dong is almost twenty and crowned and still hasn't moved, she is so anxious to die, and it's hard to ask, let alone arrange for a girl to teach and wait, for fear of self-defeating.
But now she is relieved, Lin Dong's body is finally fine.
"That's good, it's been a lot of good things lately, hurry up and find a suitable wife candidate for Brother Dong, and become our own baby, we can feel more at ease." Lin Long was sincerely happy, "Grandfather and father can rest assured when they see us doing well in the sky." ”
As the eldest sister, she has the responsibility of taking care of her younger siblings, but now that her sister has found a good relationship and lives a happy life, and her younger brother is a high school champion and a good ancestor, she is about to marry a good wife to support the door.
At the mention of Lin Ze, Lin Lu's eyes were wet, and he took out a handkerchief and wiped his tears, "That's right, I'm looking forward to hugging my grandson now......"
"When I marry my daughter-in-law, my grandson will not be far away." Lin Long smiled and patted Lin Lu's hand and comforted.
Lin Lushi stopped crying at this time, but still pressed the corner of his eye with a handkerchief, "That's what I look forward to, by the way, Gu family girl, what do you think?" I think this girl is really good......"
"Yes, sister, what do you think in your heart?" Lin Qi also hurriedly walked over and asked.
Quan Meihuan, who came with her youngest daughter, stared at her eldest daughter's face tightly, and the nervousness in her heart meant that she cared about Lin Long's answer, "I also think that this ancient girl's family is good, and if she can marry Brother Dong, she will also be a talented and beautiful woman......"
Lin Long glanced at Quan Meihuan and didn't say anything, Quan Meihuan's scalp was numb, and he couldn't say the next words, so he could only close his mouth and stand aside.
After a long time, Lin Long said, "This ancient girl can't do it." ”
"Why not?" Lin Lushi, Lin Qi, and Quan Meihuan all asked in unison.
Lin Long stretched out his hand to hold Lin Lu's hand, and said solemnly, "Erniang, I don't think she respects you very much, such a princess and daughter have too high a self-esteem, and they will marry in the future, I am afraid that you will still rely on her to be a man, just this point, I don't agree with Brother Dong marrying her." ”
Everyone was stunned, Lin Qi was thoughtful, but Lin Lu's eyes were full of tears, but she was disappointed in her heart, she didn't expect her eldest daughter's observation to be so subtle, I was afraid that even Lin Lu's didn't find out that she was treated lightly, but the eldest daughter could see through it at a glance, and her heart was suddenly not a taste.
"Sister Long, it's hard for you to think so much about me, it's worth it for Erniang to have your children in this life." Lin Lu wiped his tears again, "But could it be that you are mistaken, I looked at the ancient girl very politely, and she did not show a contemptuous attitude towards me......"
"Erniang, that's because you preconceived so you didn't discover her hidden thoughts." Lin Long said, "When you greeted her just now, the way she looked at you betrayed herself, or she wouldn't despise you in person, but deep down she definitely didn't think so." Erniang, you have contributed a lot to our sister and brother to today, so we don't want to wronged you and be angry with others. ”
"Sister, I also think you are making a bit of a fuss, this ancient girl's character is still good, she doesn't know the real situation of Erniang in our family, and she probably has heard a lot of gossip about other people's gossip, and it is not necessary that she will have preconceived notions." Lin Qi is still optimistic about Gu Xuefei, "Another thing is that Brother Dong likes her, and just by virtue of this, she is better than other girls." ”
At the mention of the fact that Lin Dong likes Gu Xuefei, Lin Long's expression also became solemn, from Lin Lu's mention to her about Lin Dong's spring dream just now, it seems that it is inseparable from Gu Xuefei, in this way, Gu Xuefei is indeed superior to other girls, at least she can make Lin Dong feel for her.
"Sister Long, I know you are doing this for my good, but Erniang also thinks that it is too arbitrary for us to veto Miss Gu like this?" Lin Lu's family didn't want Lin Dong to be sad and sad, but now after listening to Lin Long's suggestion, her liking for Gu Xuefei has dropped a notch, but she really regards Lin Dong as a son, of course she doesn't want her son's love path to be unsmooth, and he will marry a wife he doesn't like in the future and suffer for a lifetime.
Quan Meihuan didn't dare to say good things for Gu Xuefei, this time she stood aside and watched with interest, and then heard that Lin Lu's was still saying good things for Gu Xuefei, is this Lin Lu's a fool? Everyone treats her like this, is she still in the mood to excuse others?
Seeing this, she felt that she had really thought too much before, what was she fighting with a person of Lin Lu's temperament? What's there to fight about? It's ridiculous to think about it, like a clown.
Thinking of this, she finally said a fair word, "There is indeed no problem with this ancient girl's character, but she still has the common disease of the princess's daughter." ”
In other words, some things are engraved in her bones and are difficult to change, for example, she can't change the problem of selfishness, no matter when, she will plan for herself first.
Lin Qi glared at his mother, didn't he tell her not to interject? Why didn't she listen to persuasion, Brother Dong's marriage really couldn't be her turn to point fingers.
Lin Lushi just looked at it and didn't say anything, she would never refute Quan Meihuan unless she was confused and did something that harmed the interests of the three children.
Lin Long looked at his mother deeply, and nodded unexpectedly in agreement, "This time my mother is not wrong, Gu Xuefei is not a treacherous and cunning person, but she has a common problem that all high-ranking daughters have, that is, she thinks too highly of herself. ”
The backgrounds of Gu Xuefei and Lin Lu are really different, so it is no wonder that Gu Xuefei will not really put down her body to face Lin Lu, after all, no one in the education she has received since she was a child is that everyone is born equal.
Quan Meihuan won the approval of her eldest daughter, and for a while the sadness and sadness in her heart were swept away, and she felt full of joy, so far, she realized that it is not difficult to regain the hearts of her children, the key is not to think about selfishness.
Lin Lu and Lin Qi glanced at each other, they couldn't refute Lin Long's words, even if she was not the daughter of the princess, she also understood that such a high-ranking concubine generally had long eyes on the top of her head.
"But Brother Dong's ......" Lin Qi was also reluctant to ask his younger brother for it.
Lin Long thought for a while and said, "Originally, I didn't care about this ancient girl, but it is rare that Brother Dong likes it, then I will see if I can beat her first, if she can figure out that she wants to respect Erniang, I don't want to beat the mandarin duck, after all, I can also see that this ancient girl is very happy with our brother." ”
A happy marriage is the most satisfying, this is the state she is experiencing now, if it weren't for the special situation of her own family, it would not be her turn to make decisions about her brother's marriage. Besides, she also doesn't want to see her brother hurt by love, and the word love is not so easy to break.
"That's fine, I'm for it." Lin Qi immediately took a stand.
Lin Lu and Quan Meihuan naturally have no differences, although these two are elders, they each have flaws, so they rarely stand on the identity of elders to speak.
Everyone was discussing this marriage, but Lin Dong walked over, saw that his relatives were there, and stepped forward and smiled, "Sister, you call me?" ”
Lin Long walked out with a smile and pulled Lin Dong closer, "Today, our sister and brother have not been able to talk properly, there are too many guests, and my sister has not had time to talk to you in detail......
"Sister, what do you want to say just yet? How dare I hide it from you? Lin Dong said with a smile.
This smile was too similar to his father's appearance before his death, and everyone, including Lin Long, was stunned and couldn't come back to his senses for a while.
"Brother Dong is becoming more and more like his father." Lin Long, who was the first to return to his soul, said in a lost way, if his father was still there, he would definitely feel relieved to see today's scene, but it was a pity that the tree wanted to be quiet and the wind did not stop, and the son wanted to raise but his relatives were not there.
"Happy days, sister, don't be sad, my father saw that we were doing well in the spirit of heaven, and his old man must be happy." Lin Dong opened his mouth to persuade several of his closest family members.
"Yes, not sad." Lin Long then smiled and said, "Brother Dong, my sister has something to ask you," Seeing her brother's gaze on herself, she thought about it and asked directly, "What do you think of that ancient girl?" ”
"What do you think?" Lin Dong didn't expect the eldest sister to ask this question straight to the point, and his head was stunned for a while, so he could only repeat the eldest sister's words in a daze, his cheeks were slowly covered with redness, and even crawled to the root of his ears so red that he wanted to drip blood.
This silent picture is better than sound, what else is there for everyone present to understand? They are all from the past, why don't they know that Lin Dong is moved by the girl of the ancient family?
After a long time, Lin Long spoke, "Okay, Brother Dong, sister understands." ”
Lin Dong's face turned even redder, and he wanted to open his mouth to explain, but he didn't know what to say, so it was best to keep his mouth shut. If it weren't for that spring dream, he wouldn't have any thoughts about Gu Xuefei, but men are like this, but it was this Gu Xuefei who made him appreciate the love between men and women.
Quan Meihuan thought about the unwillingness of her first marriage and Lin Ze's early death, and sighed and said, "Marriage is not just reluctant, and neither of you will be happy in the end." ”
Lin Lu also nodded thoughtfully, just like she fell in love with Lin Ze all her life, and in the end she could only get a false name, of course, she also had low self-esteem about her background, she was not worthy of being Lin Ze's wife, so now she has become the mother of the Lin family, and she can only be grateful for God's gifts.
The Lin sisters didn't say anything more, and this emotional matter has always been uncontrollable.
In the dead of night, Lin Long nestled in her husband's arms and suddenly asked faintly, "Xu Yao, when was the first time you had a spring dream?" ”
When Ye Xuyao heard this, he looked at her with a puzzled and vigilant expression, "What are you asking for?" ”
Lin Long suddenly got up from his arms and looked at him, half moonlight and half shadow bedroom, she couldn't really see his face, and then leaned on his chest, "What?" Can't tell me? ”
"Who remembers the old past?" Ye Xuyao turned over and didn't want to answer.
Lin Long grabbed his arm reluctantly, "Xu Yao, just tell me about it, I promise not to be jealous, is this okay?" ”
Ye Xuyao stretched out his arm and hugged her into his arms, "Aren't you tired after a busy day today?" Don't think about it, go to bed. ”
"Can you tell me about it?" Lin Long said coquettishly, "I want to know what men were thinking at that time?" ”
"I really want to know?" Ye Xuyao suddenly raised his eyebrows and looked at her, "I want to know what is your reason?" Seeing his wife like this didn't look like he was jealous, so his expression gradually became serious.
Lin Long saw her husband's serious appearance, so she said all the careful thoughts in her heart, "It's not for Brother Dong, I want to know what he really thinks in his heart." "Tell my husband what happened today." You said that Brother Dong's reaction was not because of that ancient girl? I have a bit of a grudge against this ancient girl, but I can't stop my brother from liking her. ”
Ye Xuyao lay flat at this time, squinting at his wife with a complicated expression, "You think too much, even if this Gu Xuefei believes that she is the daughter of the princess and really enters the door of the Lin family, she will not dare to be disrespectful to your second mother, unless she doesn't want to stay in the Lin family." ”
Lin Long said, "I know, but I'm afraid of wronging Erniang." His eyes raised slightly, "Do you say yes?" ”
Ye Xuyao looked at her deeply, and then talked about his first spring dream.
Lin Long's eyes widened when he heard this, and he looked at him in disbelief, "You didn't lie to me?" You can't just make me happy, right? ”
When she knew him, he was past the age of the crown, how could it be her?
"Believe it or not." Ye Xuyao's old god looked at her on the ground and said.
In fact, he didn't open his mind too early, and he has a habit of cleanliness, looking at everyone who is dirty, how can it be possible to have that kind of desire? Especially the prostitutes in Qinglou, he didn't even want to get involved.
In fact, to be precise, when he first saw Lin Long, she looked like a ghost, and he couldn't have thought anything about her? Or even avoid it. Later, the moment he saw her Fleur out of the bath, he began to realize that she was a girl, a young beautiful girl.
After that night, he often had her in his dreams.
Later, he would choose her as his wife, in fact, this aspect was also a factor, but he didn't tell her this for so many years.
Lin Long didn't expect such a casual question to blow up a surprise from her husband, she suddenly wrapped her hands around Ye Xuyao's neck, pecked him happily on the lips, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect you to like me so much at that time." ”
Ye Xuyao was teased by her like this, his face immediately flushed with blood, turned over and ignored her, "Sleep." ”
Lin Long was amused, and leaned close to his ear and exhaled, "Tell me more, Xu Yao, okay?" Well? ”
As for whether she succeeded later, only God knows.
However, the next day, the smile on Mrs. Xiangyang's face did not stop when she got up and made up, which showed that she was in a very good mood.
Even the eldest maid who was waiting for her scrambled to ask, "Grandma is in a really good mood today, but what is the happy event?" ”
"What joy can there be? Your grandmother, I am so happy every day. As soon as Lin Long was interested, he fought with them.
Just when the master and servant were joking and saying that they were happy, a pair of very similar and beautiful twins pushed the curtain in, and as soon as they came in, the twins looked at Lin Long very tacitly, "Mother, let's not go to the clan ......."
"Mother, I don't want to go either." Xiao Wu, who followed his brother, also learned the same way.
Lin Long glanced at the two twin sons, stepped forward and hugged Xiao Wu into his arms, and said softly, "We Xiao Wu don't have to go, as for your two brothers," she looked up at Xiao San and Xiao Si, and smiled, "Then it's definitely going to go." ”
"Mother, I don't want it." Xiao Si stepped forward and hugged his mother's thigh.
"Mother, didn't you say that we won't go to the clan until our birthday is over?" The junior also hurried to follow the example of the junior to hug his mother's other thigh.
Lin Long looked at the two sons who were playing Laipi, and deeply felt that they would not be able to learn any rules if they left these two sons by their side, which made her even more determined to mention that her two sons would go to the clan school in advance.
The eldest and second came in a hurry just in time to see the younger brothers playing scoundrels, the two of them looked at each other and smiled, stepped forward and pulled one by one, and pulled the third and fourth children off their mother's thighs.
"Mother, leave the arduous task of sending the third and fourth children to the clan school." The boss Ye Yaoting smiled brightly.
"That's right." The second child, Ye Yaohui, immediately agreed.
Pit brother or something, of course he has to spare no effort.
Lin Long glanced at the four sons who were "in love with each other", nodded with a smile, and walked forward with Xiao Wu in his arms, "Xiao Wu, let's go see if my brother is up?" ”
Seeing their mother take the fifth brother away to see the sixth brother, Ye Yaoting and Ye Yaohui both moved their knuckles, regardless of the sound of the two younger brothers killing pigs, and forced them out of the South Park.
Since she took her daughter to attend the full moon banquet in the Xiangyang Hou Mansion, she has been waiting for Lin Long's news, but seeing that the Ye family's second full moon banquet is about to arrive, the Lin family and Lin Long were stunned and didn't make any moves, which made her wonder and feel deeply uneasy.
Gu Guo's uneasiness also infected Gu Xuefei, she hadn't slept well in the past ten days, and every day she hoped that the Lin family could send someone to the door to propose marriage, but every day was just empty waiting, and the Lin family didn't move at all.
She is young and does not have the patience of her mother, "Mother, do you say that the Lin family doesn't like me?" ”
"Silly boy, don't say such unambitious words in the future, you are the daughter of the dignified marquis, and the Lin family is still high in marrying you." Gu Guo scolded his daughter for not being confident.
"But we also met, and the Lin family didn't send anyone to propose marriage, what kind of attitude is this?" Gu Xuefei twisted the handkerchief and asked what was in her heart, "It was clear that they were very satisfied with me that day, I could see it, but why didn't there be any follow-up?" ”
"Son, this marriage is in a hurry, the more anxious it is, the more useless it is." Gu Guo comforted his daughter and said, "Even if the marriage is decided now, if you want to get married at the earliest, you will have to wait until the beginning of spring next year, and your brother's marriage will be done immediately." ”
"How did you say anything about me?" Gu Jing listened half of the outside, didn't listen to half of it, smiled and lifted the curtain to come into the warm pavilion, and first asked his mother to say goodbye.
"Brother came just in time, my mother wants to marry a wife for you." Gu Xuefei covered her mouth and smiled.
"I think my sister hates to marry." Gu Jing heard his mother mention his sister's marriage, so he took it out and made a joke, who knew that his sister's face immediately turned red and lowered her head to be shy, and suddenly his eyes were round, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Who is the person who wants to marry the little sister?" ”
"What nonsense?" Gu Guo reprimanded his son.
"Mother, do you and my little sister have something to hide from me?" Gu Jing sat down and asked with a serious face.
Gu Guo glared at his son, "It's okay, you hurry up and do your business, I haven't finished talking to your sister and myself." ”
Gu Xuefei was silent, lowered her head and picked up the flowers in the basket and began to embroider.
Seeing this, Gu Jing knew that it was impossible to hear the answer from their mouths, so he snorted slightly and got up and left.
"You really don't know who your brother is with?" Gu Guo stroked his forehead and looked at his son's back helplessly and walked away, "I really don't know if your future sister-in-law can lower him?" Otherwise, I'm sorry for my parents. ”
The future daughter-in-law's mother is her handkerchief, so she naturally doesn't want the two families to have a feud in the future.
"Mother, you're thinking too long, I'm afraid my brother won't be able to hurt my sister-in-law by then." Gu Xuefei comforted her mother.
The mother and daughter were talking in the back room, but Gu Jing asked some clues from the mouths of his subordinates.
I didn't expect that the person who beat his sister's idea would be the champion of the new department, and at this moment there was a cold smile on the corner of his mouth.
