Chapter 53: The Newcomer
Early the next morning, Lin Wanjin was dressed and taken by Xiao Su to Deshou Temple, and heard that it was the bride who wanted to recognize her relatives. When they arrived at Deoksugou Temple, they didn't wait long, and a maid came to report that the eldest young master and the eldest young grandmother were about to arrive.
Lin Wanjin sat with Lin Wanyu and other young ladies and young masters, turned their heads to look out, and saw a couple of newlyweds wearing festive clothes walking towards the hall.
Lin Tan is a typical ancient man, with a slender figure, and it is rare that his appearance is not particularly outstanding, and his facial features are correct. It's just that his young age gives people a sense of calmness, and the whole person seems a little silent and not energetic, Lin Wanjin thinks that it may be that he is too obsessed with it, and there is a feeling of an old master. Today, a rare cramped and shy expression appeared on his face, which attracted everyone's side attention.
The Guo family standing beside him was much more normal than what Lin Wanjin saw last night, at least Lin Wanjin thought so. At this time, although Guo's face is also wearing heavy makeup, it is much better looking than last night's, Guo's appearance is not outstanding, and it is most appropriate to describe it as a beautiful woman.
However, Guo's deepest impression on her is that she is calm and atmospheric, although her eyes are a little shy and nervous, but her every move is atmospheric and beautiful. Just looking at the satisfaction in the eyes of the old lady and the Li family, and the smile on the corner of their mouths, they knew that they were satisfied with the Guo family.
A pair of newcomers, first to the old lady and the old lady to ask for a kiss, and then the Li family and Lin Bozong, all the way down, soon to Lin Wanjin and these juniors. Because Lin Tan is the eldest of the children in the family, the Guo family should give them a meeting gift for their younger brothers and sisters.
Lin Wanjin secretly counted the number of people, and I don't know if the Guo family has prepared so much.
Then, these realities she was worried about, and after a circle, the gifts that Guo prepared for them were the same, and it seemed that every gift was liked by everyone. Lin Wanjin glanced at the Guo family, who was bowing his head respectfully and bowing his head to answer the old lady's question, it is not simple, it is also, can it be an ordinary person who can be so satisfied with the Li family's selection as the eldest daughter-in-law.
What Lin Wanjin received was a few delicate trinkets made of gold with a cute appearance, something that the little girl would definitely like. She looked at the people around her, obviously quite satisfied with what Guo gave her, and the one that her sister-in-law called was sweet, and Lin Tan couldn't help but give Guo Shi a satisfied look.
After the confession ceremony was over, it was time for them to go to the ancestral hall to worship, and after everyone had eaten, there was nothing to do with Lin Wanjin.
On the way back, Lin Wanjin was still thinking that the young ladies and young masters of the Lin Mansion were all about the same age, and I was afraid that the mansion would be very lively during this time. Those who should be married should be married, and those who should be married should be married, but Lin Wanling didn't know what would happen.
During this time, Lin Wanling's grounding has been lifted, and last time she and Lin Wanke came to listen to Zhuyuan looking for Su Qing with a smile, looking at her appearance at that time, was it a wish fulfilled? However, I haven't heard that the Li family has set up a family affair for her during this time.
Lin Wanjin always felt that something was wrong, and she couldn't think of where it was for a while, just when she arrived at Tingzhuyuan, she just happened to see Qingtong, she rolled her eyes, and motioned for Baizhu to call Qingtong.
After a while, Qingtong came upstairs, and after seeing the ceremony, Lin Wanjin ordered the matter to go down.
In the following days, the Lin Mansion seemed to be quiet all of a sudden, and there was no change for Lin Wanjin. Except for the fact that there was one more person following behind the Li family when he was greeting, there seemed to be no change. Guo's life seems to be very smooth in the mansion, even the Li family is not too critical of her, and she does a good job, and the taciturn young master is also rare to be considerate of people, and he talks more.
Lin Wanjin didn't have much contact with Guo, but she always felt that there was some disharmony between Lin Wanyu and Guo, although on the surface the two of them seemed to have nothing to do. However, every time Lin Wanjin saw the two of them together, she always felt that something was wrong, it stands to reason that Lin Wanyu was going to get married soon, so she wouldn't offend her only sister-in-law at this time.
Guo doesn't look like a stupid person, will he be confident that his husband and mother-in-law will leave his own sister and daughter behind when he first gets married, and stand on her side?
The most important thing is that Lin Wanjin doesn't believe that Lin Wanyu would do such a thing, even if she is dissatisfied with Guo, she must be able to endure it and remain silent or plan to move. You must know that the Li family cultivated her as a clan wife, and she is a woman who wants to be in charge of the family in the future, how could she do such an impulsive thing.
This time, I asked Qingtong to inquire about Lin Wanling, and maybe I could also inquire about the matter between Lin Wanyu and Guo by the way. Qingtong's ability, Lin Wanjin did not doubt it, and soon she came to report.
"Miss, the slave maid heard that there has been no movement on the third lady's side recently, but ......" Qingtong was a little hesitant, she didn't know if this was useful, and she was afraid that the useless news would be reported to Miss, but it would cause Miss trouble.
"Just what?"
With Lin Wanjin's approval, she took a deep breath before she spoke. "It's just that the slave maid noticed that Aunt Lu's sister-in-law has been here three times recently."
"Aunt Lu's maiden sister-in-law? Three times? When is it? Lin Wanjin sat up, ordinary aunts, even if they have the credit of giving birth to children, do not often get the opportunity to visit their mother's family. And it's three times so many, and it's rare for other aunts to see their mother's family once a year. Unless it was originally the son of the Fuzhong family, and was favored by the old men as an aunt,
"Yes, once was not long after you came back from the Eldest Princess's Mansion last month, once was half a month ago, and once was three days ago." Seeing Lin Wanjin's interest, Qingtong told the news more carefully.
"Can you tell what you're here for?"
The slave didn't inquire, every time the man came, he was alone in the room with Aunt Lu, and there was no maid inside. Why don't you ask again? ”
Lin Wanjin was silent for a while, shook her head, and said softly. "No need, then Aunt Lu is doing things in the house?"
Qingtong shook her head, "No, Aunt Lu is not a child of the Fuzhong family, her family used to open a noodle shop outside." ”
"Once upon a time? And now? ”
"This slave doesn't know either, it seems that someone in the Lu family has been favored by a certain big official and has become a cronie of that big official, so their family has not opened a noodle shop anymore."
Lin Wanjin fell into deep thought for a while, and Qingtong didn't speak again, so as not to disturb her thoughts, and kept standing aside.
