The queen looked forward to it, and finally looked forward to the end of the New Year, and after discussing with the emperor, she set the first day of February as an auspicious day, and immediately sent Wenxin to the palace to arrange a wedding room. Tu Yan said that the bed frame in Lin Qingyun's house was already very good, and it was not convenient to move, so he took the vine courtyard as a happy room, and Lin Qingyun temporarily moved to live in the wing room for a few days.

Watching the people busy every day, Aunt Wenxin does not touch other government affairs except for the dispatch of the wedding room. In the blink of an eye, on the last day of the first lunar month, Wenxin dismissed the maids, sat alone in the inner room with Lin Qingyun, and took out a book to stuff it for her.

Wenxin was also a little embarrassed, and said with a smile: "It stands to reason that I shouldn't teach this thing, but the queen is afraid that the princess will be uncomfortable, and the princess will have a round room with the prince tomorrow, and the queen is still waiting to hug the emperor's grandson." This is an important thing, and it is estimated that there is also under the princess's box, but I am afraid that I am embarrassed to look at it. ”

Lin Qingyun heard these words, even if he didn't read the contents of the booklet, he knew the meaning, his face was slightly red, and he bowed his head and said nothing.

It's not that she is embarrassed by this booklet, but she suddenly comes to someone to tell her about making out with someone tomorrow, how can she be comfortable? Moreover, although she and Tu Yan exchanged hearts and minds, and they got along with each other day and night for three years, they never had too close times, how could they not be nervous.

Wenxin took the responsibility, and the side didn't elaborate, only told her which postures were conducive to pregnancy, and then went out.

Lin Qingyun opened the booklet and looked at it a few times, but inexplicably felt hot, and casually stuffed it under the pillow and refused to read it again.

Since the early morning of the first day of the new year, she and Tu Yan have not seen each other until dusk, dressed up and helped into the wedding room, sitting on the wedding bed. At this time, the room was furnished as when she was newly married, her eyes were full of red, but her mood was no longer as calm as when she was a newlywed, her nervous hands were sweating, and she looked left and right from time to time. When she got married, she took off her hijab, and she didn't repeat it this time, and her red clothes were all re-sewn, which was different from the wedding dress. The material is the floating brocade given by the queen's mother, the tribute of Gaochang, the sun shines on the light and shadow floats, and the rain does not stick, which is very rare.

Today's round house is a great joy, although Tu Yan did not set up a wine banquet, but several princes and brothers from the clan came to say that they were happy to beg for wine. No matter what the person who came thought, he was overjoyed, and he ignored it and prepared a banquet to drink with the guests.

Everyone knew the proportions and didn't disturb him too much, so he only let him go to the cave room, and joked: "* A moment is worth a thousand gold, seventh brother, don't live up to the good spring." ”

"Brothers, you are gone." Tu Yan pretended to be half drunk, resigned from everyone, and was supported by Le Gonggong to go to the vine Luo Courtyard.

As soon as he entered the hospital, everyone and others saluted and congratulated: "The prince is very happy." ”

"Reward!" Tu Yan pushed the door in, the room illuminated by the dragon and phoenix candles was bright, opened the bead curtain and stepped into the inner room, and the shadow of the big red wedding bed made his heart soft and comfortable.

He can still remember the scene at the time of the wedding, after three years, how similar the scene has been.

"Wei Qing is tired of waiting?" Tu Yan's attitude was the same as always, which made Lin Qingyun less nervous.

When Tu Yan approached, he smelled the smell of wine on his body, and frowned unconsciously: "Who did you drink with?" Didn't you have a table today? How much did you drink? Can the head be uncomfortable? Before he finished speaking, he heard Tu Yan laughing, and couldn't help but stare at him with disgust: "What are you laughing at!" ”

Tu Yan looked at her appearance by the bright candlelight, which was better than three years ago, when her face was still a little immature and green, but now she looked at it delicately blooming, fragrant and charming.

Lin Qingyun's face was hot when she was stared at, and she lowered her eyes to avoid her gaze.

Tu Yan took her hand and whispered: "Hold the hand of the son, grow old with it." Only Qing will accompany me in this life, and I will not be disappointed! Without waiting for her to react, Tu Yan said again: "Let's rest in peace." ”

Lin Qingyun was dragged into the account with a red face, and the details inside were unspeakable.

When I woke up the next day, my pillow was empty, and I still had residual warmth. Lin Qingyun couldn't figure out what time it was, stretched out his hand to open the red tent, the sun was bright on the window, and he opened his mouth to call the egret, but he saw that it was in vain. As soon as he touched the smile on the other person's face, he didn't get angry.

Tu Yan hurriedly made a gesture in front of the bed, and even apologized: "It was me Meng Lang last night." ”

Lin Qingyun heard him mention it, but he felt that he was still uncomfortable, but he asked him without looking away: "What time is it?" ”

Tu Yan reached out and pulled up the brocade quilt to cover her shoulders that had slipped out, and replied in his mouth, "Just now." It's okay, lie down more, and if you're hungry, I'll have someone bring you food. ”

"Where did I get to that? You go out, call the egret in, I'm going to get up. Sleeping in broad daylight is spread out to make people laugh. ”

Tu Yan smiled: "Who is laughing? Don't worry, Aunt Wenxin got up early and went back to the palace. When she left, Aunt Tattoo also specially explained that she was not allowed to wake you up and let you rest more. ”

Lin Qingyun noticed that the white silk spread on the bed last night was gone, and knew that it was the tattoo that was taken away for the queen to see, and he didn't realize that it was awkward again.

Seeing this, Tu Yan had no choice but to go out and summon the egret in to serve.

Because of the round house, the emperor also specially compared the wedding to Tu Yan for a month's leave, and the queen sent a message to ask for peace three days later. In the past three days, there have been no outsiders to disturb them, purely for the little couple to be alone. After the initial day of unease, the two of them were as comfortable as before, talking about current affairs, or reading and painting every day. After experiencing the blending of water and milk, they became more and more intimate with each other, thinking of each other all the time, and they could know their meaning with every look and movement, as if nothing in the world could separate the two.

It's probably a portrayal of the words "like glue and paint".

Lin Qingyun and Tu Yan each sighed: How fortunate it is to have this person in this life.

Three days later, the two went to the palace to say goodbye. In Fengyi Palace, the queen was very happy when she saw the intimacy and harmony between the two, and she was afraid that Lin Qingyun would be burdened by saying that she had an early child, so she only picked up the words on the side. Privately, I asked Tu Yan how he was doing, and when he learned that there was no discomfort, he became more and more happy.

"Princess Celestia is here."

As the palace maid reported, Princess Yongjia came in with An Le, saw each other, and sat down.

The queen beckoned An Le to sit under her, and while observing her eyebrows, she asked the eldest princess, "How is An Le's illness?" Last time, you said that there was a way to get to the root of the disease, how is it now? ”

The eldest princess smiled: "Don't worry, the queen mother, she is happy." It is also said that Fan Shu has the ability, although the root of this disease is known, but it is not so easy to get rid of, who knows that he has found a way in the end. Since the beginning of the New Year, An Le's girl has slept very well, and she has never been sick once. For the sake of safety, I asked Na Fan Shu to stay for another two months, and now I entered the palace to report the good news to the queen mother, but I also wanted to bother my younger siblings. ”

When the queen heard that Anle's illness was really cured, she smiled and said: "It's really a double happiness, and I will send someone to tell your father in a while, so that your father will be happy and happy." What bothered your brother and daughter-in-law? ”

The eldest princess said: "Hong'er is seventeen years old this year, I was looking at him two years ago, and I looked at it, but I thought that the girl in the family was good, and I found someone to talk about it in the old year, but I met Guoxiao." There were a lot of old years, but fortunately, I inquired about the girl who was also delayed because of national filial piety, and did not say goodbye. Qingyun has a relationship with Nafu, so I want to ask Qingyun to take the trouble to go and explore the tone of that house. ”

"Is it the dealer?" Lin Qingyun immediately guessed. There are many people who have dealings with the prince's mansion, but there are few people who have dealings with her, and the Jia family is relatively close to the Zhuang family. According to the personality of the eldest princess, she will not choose the daughter of the Jia family as her daughter-in-law, then there is only the banker.

The eldest princess smiled: "It is the fifth girl of their family, who is one year younger than Hong'er. ”

Lin Qingyun is not so surprised, the Zhuang family is a scholarly family, with a profound heritage, and the fifth girl Zhuang Shixiang is a young woman in the long house, with a very lively temperament, good appearance, and quick poetry, I don't know how many people want to marry. She knew more, and immediately said: "If the eldest sister really has the heart to ask for marriage, she should come to the door quickly, before the national filial piety, several families came to the door to ask for the fifth girl, because the national filial piety was not good to mention it again." Last year, just out of filial piety, there are two more families to the door, the family is good, only their family does not pay much attention to the door, the most important thing is the aunt's own ability to learn, and the two families are not in the capital, the old lady is reluctant, but the son of the family is slightly younger than two years old, so he has not yet agreed. ”

"Maybe it's Hong'er's blessing." The queen is naturally very clear about the dealer, and she also thinks that this family business is well chosen, so she immediately instructed Lin Qingyun: "Since your eldest sister entrusts you, then you have to work hard, if this matchmaking is done, let your eldest sister seal a thick thank you matchmaking money, and Hong'er will marry in the future, let him thank you well." ”

"Where can I use my big sister to thank me, this is Brother Hong'er's big deal, I will go to the dealer tomorrow." Lin Qingyun also thinks that this family affair is good, and she really has the heart to promote it.

I handed over the post to the dealer that day, and went to the door early the next morning.

The old lady of the Zhuang family and the wife of the two rooms greeted them, and there were a few sisters of the Zhuang family, everyone sat down and said a few words of gossip, Lin Qingyun swept the three sisters of the Zhuang family with a smile, and said in the words: "I came today, but I have something to say to the eldest lady." ”

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law looked at each other and asked the three sisters to go to their own devices.

Only then did Lin Qingyun say what he meant: "Don't hide it from the old lady and the two wives, I came here today to be entrusted by someone." Princess Yongjia fell in love with the five girls in your family and wanted to marry Brother Hong, so she asked me to come together. Brother Hong is seventeen this year, one year older than the five girls, he has been practicing martial arts since elementary school, and now he is training in the army. The eldest princess has been strictly upheld since she was a child, and Brother Hong has not let go of anyone, and she never goes to those bastard places outside, so she definitely doesn't have to worry about her character. ”

The eldest lady glanced at the old lady and said with a smile: "It is the blessing of the five girls to be liked by the eldest princess." ”

The second wife didn't open her mouth, after all, she was the daughter of the big house, she just listened.

But the old lady said the truth: "The marriage of the children is the most important, and she should ask her father what he means." The princess allowed us to take counsel and counsel. ”

"This is natural, you just have to inquire, this is not in a hurry, but it is just discussed, whether it should be or not, give me a letter." Lin Qingyun was a matchmaker for the first time, even if she hated to ensure that the media could not facilitate it, but in the end, the girl's family would be dissatisfied in the future, so she could only inquire about it slowly now, and after weighing it, she felt that it was appropriate, and the two families said that it was a good thing for the relatives.

Back in the house, Tu Yan asked about the result.

She said: "How can the matchmaker be successful once, I went to mention it, and they want to inquire about Brother Hong'er's human nature in private." It's going to take a month to work hard, and I'll ask you when the time comes. The five girls of the dealer are sixteen this year, if they really respond, they can't hold back for a year or two no matter how reserved they are, I'm afraid that they will be small this year, and they will get married next year. ”

Tu Yan said: "Even if there is a reply, it is estimated that it will be April or May." The eldest son of the Zhuang family participated in this year's examination, and the energy of the Zhuang family is on this. ”

"When you mention it, I think about it, the twelfth is my sister and Lu, and the dealer chose the day to go to the Lin family to hire. I'll have to go back early to help. Thinking about it, he said: "That Zhuang Li is nineteen this year, and the dealer will definitely set the date of marriage this year, if it is double happiness, it will definitely be April and May." I have to have people take care of everything they add to the makeup, so that they don't have to worry about it. ”

"There are still two or three months, and it's enough time to clean up in one day." Tu Yan pulled her to sit down beside her and asked her, "You have mentioned before, what kind of private club do you want to open in Beijing?" Tell me more about it. ”

"It's just a thought on my head. Nowadays, people in the world have a lot of requirements for women, one of which is that they can't show their heads lightly, and what pastime can they have when they are bored at home all day? Why is everyone's backyard so messy, except for how easy it is for aunts and girls to have quarrels, I'm afraid that they are also bored at home. Wouldn't it be nice to have a place where the ladies could have fun, private and safe? ”

"If you have an idea, why don't you do it?"

"I didn't have an identity or ability before, but now I can't be idle." Lin Qingyun looked at him wonderingly: "You don't always mention this for no reason, what's wrong?" ”

"I heard a foreigner talk about tea parties and salons a few days ago, and I asked a few words curiously, and I thought it was very interesting, and I remembered what you had said. I think your idea is very good, I'll look for the place, you just have to draw a picture of the house first, and then I'll find someone to polish it. ”

"You are willing to work, I am happy to be relaxed. The place is not too big, I plan to use the money given by my father-in-law when I got married as a makeup for my sister, I still have sixty or seventy thousand spare money in hand, and the rest is in the antique jewelry grange......"

"And me. Besides, it doesn't cost that much silver. Before the Zhen family raided the house, several families were implicated, some were dismissed, some were demoted, and the houses of each family in Beijing were confiscated, and some were sold for silver. If the house is good, only slightly changed, if not, we push the reconstruction. ”

Lin Qingyun held his hands and said solemnly: "Then it's hard work." ”

Tu Yan smiled and nodded her nose: "You go and do Miss Lin's work." ”

On the twelfth, Lin Qingyun came to the Lin family early, and several girls from the Zhuang family, Jia Sanchun, and Baochai Xiangyun all came, and a group of young sisters gathered in one place with indescribable excitement and cheerfulness. Everyone knew that the dealer was going to hire today, and they knew that Zhuang Li was still taking the exam today, so they joked about Daiyu. Daiyu coaxed her face and only hid behind Lin Qingyun.

Lin Mansion is full of guests today, and it is extremely lively.

Daiyu's ceremony, Lin Qingyun attended as the host, Zhengbin invited Jia's mother, Yousi is Xichun, and the praiser is Sister Feng. Today is the dealer's hiring, the dealer's girls deliberately avoid, in addition, Daiyu is the closest to the Jia family. After the ceremony began, everyone took their place and came according to the procedure, Jia Mu looked at the slim Daiyu, as if she saw Jia Min at the beginning, and her heart fluctuated for a while, and she was extremely reluctant in her heart.

Jia's mother said: "Your father picked up the word for you: Yuxi, I hope you will live a harmonious and happy life in the future." ”

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little sad, the audience gathered around to laugh and praise Daiyu. Suddenly, someone from outside shouted: "The dealer is here!" Everyone joked again, and Daiyu, who was making trouble, blushed, just dodging. It didn't take long for the big lady of the dealer to arrive.

The Lin family didn't have a female dependent, and Lin Ruhai entrusted Lin Qingyun with the matter earlier, after all, he was a big man and it was not good to talk to the eldest wife of the Zhuang family. The dowry was discussed by the two families in the morning, but it was nothing, only the ladies who came to watch the ceremony looked at it once, praised it, and were envious and jealous.

After a busy day, after the guests dispersed, Lin Qingyun was busy greeting and packing up his things, and put the dowry into the warehouse that he had cleaned up earlier. The other sisters also went back, but Lin Qingyun told Tu Yan in advance that they would stay with Daiyu tonight.

Daiyu had already changed her clothes, and seeing that she was busy coming and going, it was easy to see that she was busy, and immediately brought a cup of tea: "Sister sit and rest, and leave those things to the next people, why bother to bow down to everything." My sister wasn't like this at home before, could it be that her behavior has changed after she got married? As he spoke, he began to tease her.

To say that Daiyu's temperament is the most narrow, occasionally angry and scathing, partial life makes people hate not love, but in hindsight, I still think she is cute.

Lin Qingyun teased her: "I saw that you were just stunned, what were you thinking?" Shouldn't it be because of the banker's eldest son? I know my brother-in-law-to-be is taking an exam today. ”

"What a prospective brother-in-law, I'm not worried about him!" Daiyu was poked at the center, and the more she argued, the more chaotic she became, so she simply held her face and hid.

Lin Qingyun looked at Daiyu and smiled: "Now that the wedding date is set, April 20th, at that time, the results of the palace examination of the eldest prince Zhuang must also come out." The father-in-law used to praise him, but now that he is a parent, he has become a lot of picky, and the father-in-law is reluctant to let you go, and he sees the eldest son of the dealer as the enemy who takes the daughter. ”

Daiyu has both the shyness of getting married, and the reluctance and worry of leaving home: "If I go out in the future, there will be only one father in the family, and there is no one to accompany me, how lonely it will be." Sometimes I even want to ......"

Lin Qingyun can understand the unfinished words, although Daiyu doesn't like someone to occupy Jia Min's position, but seeing Lin Ruhai alone, it is inevitable that her heart will be shaken, and she always feels that she is not filial. She is not good at saying this kind of thing, it is Daiyu's mother, and Daiyu has to be in charge of everything. In fact, there is an aunt in the Lin Mansion, but the aunt is not the master, let alone standing side by side with Lin Ruhai, she has no right to be a housekeeper, she has no right to go out to socialize, and even caring about Lin Ruhai's life and other things are restricted.

Inevitably, it was even more sad to continue talking, she mentioned the marriage of Yingchun: "The second girl went out at eighteen, and Rongguo Mansion must have been very lively that day. I also met Miss Shi today, she has been married to the Wei family for two or three years, why hasn't there been any movement? ”

Shi Xiangyun is the same age as Daiyu and is fifteen this year.

Daiyu shook her head: "Her uncle and aunt are still in the field and haven't come back, and I don't know how to discuss it with the Wei family." Last year, when I went out of the country to filial piety, many people did happy events, and I didn't look very good when I saw her, and it was not easy to ask. She has always been close to Sister Bao, but last year, for some reason, the two of them became estranged again. The sisters are all older, if the family is well managed, like the third sister Bao sister, seeing the sisters out of the cabinet one by one, how can I feel good. I just hope that my sisters will have a good life. ”

As if he remembered something, he said, "Sister, can Sister Zhibao's brother marry?" Sister Bao's sister-in-law's maiden family is also a royal merchant named in the household, and the family is a kind of osmanthus, and all the bonsai in the palace are enshrined by their family, which is called the osmanthus Xia family. It is said that the new sister-in-law is very powerful, not only dominating Sister Bao's brother, but even often quarreling with Aunt Xue. That time, I went to Nafu and saw Xiangling...... is the girl that their family bought when they went to Beijing, she was originally a concubine for the Xue family's uncle, but now she is with Sister Bao. I asked the third sister, only to find out that the new sister-in-law couldn't tolerate Xiangling, so she made a lot of trouble. Although the new sister-in-law did something wrong, the Xue family was too unparticular, and the main room did not enter the door, but she first set up wine and concubines. ”

"There's a lot going on in that house. How's your dowry going? Now that the big gift is over, it's time to get ready for the wedding dress. Lin Qingyun twisted the words back.

Daiyu nodded: "The materials sent by my sister earlier are excellent, and Mama Zhou said that it is a very rare floating brocade, and even there are a number of things in the palace, so it is good to use them to cut wedding dresses, and there is no need to embroider many complicated patterns." Embarrassed, he didn't mention it, and ordered Zijuan to take a list and hand it to her: "This is what my father prepared for me, I just think it's too rich, but my father said that I am the only one in our family......" Daiyu was silent for a long time, and suddenly asked her: "Sister, you said that if I want to have a son for the Lin family in the future, will the dealer agree?" ”

Lin Qingyun was taken aback: "Why don't you pick a suitable successor in the Lin clan?" ”

"Exactly there is no fit. I thought if it was mine...... Daddy would have liked it even more. Daiyu just thought about it in her heart, and didn't dare to say it, firstly, the girl who had not left the pavilion talked about what kind of child, she was too ashamed, and secondly, she was afraid of arousing Lin Ruhai's mind, but in the end it didn't work out. How important are the heirs to every family, and who is willing to pass on their heirs? What's more, he didn't even have his own surname.

Lin Qingyun paused and said, "Don't think about this for the time being, wait for the door, if your husband and wife have a good relationship, you can mention it in private and see what the eldest prince says." ”

Daiyu also knew the reason, and nodded silently.
