Chapter 22: The Poetry Society
The old lady spared no effort to loudly dislike the big house and the group, Mei and Lin Tian on the side listened to it in their ears, although their faces were still silent, the corners of their mouths couldn't help but rise slightly, and Lin Lang and Lin Ke's skills were obviously not as good as her parents, and the disgusted expression jumped on their faces, as if the big house of the Lin Mansion had done something harmful.
"And your second girl", Mrs. Lin took turns counting the people in the big room, and finally her eyes fell on Lin Jue who was sitting in the corner, "You are not young now, you can no longer act like a child, this is the most virtuous and virtuous lady in the capital, if you have nothing to do, don't go out, so as not to give people the impression that the girls of our Lin family don't understand the rules......"
It's almost over, isn't it just that I'm afraid of affecting Lin Lang's family? also pretended to be really as if it was for her good. Lin Jue said secretly in his heart, but he still had a respectful look on his face. She's been sitting here for almost half an hour, so she can almost find an excuse to leave, right? Looking at the faces of this group of people like this, she could not eat for the next few days, it was disgusting to the extreme.
Just as Lin Jue was looking for a reason to leave early, Nangong Yi suddenly appeared at the door of the main hall with a stiff face. Seeing this person, Lin Jue suddenly had the curiosity to stay and see what he was doing here.
"Old lady, the Yuanwei Hou Mansion sent someone to send an invitation......
Nangong Yi walked into the main hall and felt Lin Jue's gaze on the side, the expression on his face remained the same, but he respectfully bowed to Old Madam Lin.
But in stark contrast to his indifferent expression, the whole hall exploded because of his words. Except for Lin Jue, everyone's eyes widened, for fear that they had heard it wrong, especially Lin Lang, who was sitting next to the old lady, and the gentle timbre that he had deliberately maintained became sharp because he was too excited.
"What do you say? An invitation from the Yuanwei Hou Mansion? The old lady was the first to react, but her tone still couldn't hide her joy and surprise.
"The Yuanwei Hou Mansion just sent someone to send an invitation."
Nangong Yi repeated lightly.
"The invitation is handed over ......", the old lady's face could not hide her joy, and even her voice trembled slightly. Yuanwei Hou's mansion, this is the mansion of today's holy eldest brother, one of the most powerful families in Yuejing City, such a family, in this capital full of officials, just a Taibuling mansion, no matter how you climb the relationship, you can't get in touch with such a wealthy nobleman, but this time they actually sent an invitation in person?
"Did anyone say anything?" , Mrs. Lin asked while carefully looking at the big red invitation.
"On the eighth day of the first month of this month, the princess of Yuanwei Hou, Lord Miao, will hold a poetry meeting in the pear garden at home, and I hope that the young masters and young ladies of our Lin Mansion will be able to participate in it when the time comes."
Nangong Yi said concisely.
"Yuanwei Hou Mansion, why did you suddenly hand over a post to our family?" , Mrs. Lin is happy, but after all, she has lived a handful of years, and her mind is much more meticulous than that of the younger generation.
"Grandmother, it must be because of the third brother, ......", Lin Lang answered on the side, "Brother Qiong is not only born a talent, a young man, but also deeply loved by today's saints, and is also the companion of the six princes, the lord of Miaojun will take the initiative to hand over the post, it must be because of the third brother......"
"How can this kid boast about his brother like this?" Mei pursed her lips and smiled.
"The second daughter-in-law, the third girl is right, this Yuanwei Hou Mansion can hand us a post, presumably because of Brother Qiong." Seeing that what Lin Lang said was reasonable, Mrs. Lin also believed it. After all, this is just a poetry meeting, and people look up to the Lin family, so they handed over the post, is there any conspiracy that can't be achieved?
Hearing that Mrs. Lin agreed with her point of view, Lin Lang was full of joy, it was Yuanwei Hou Mansion, and all the people who came to the poetry meeting on the day were from the high-ranking families in the capital, if she could get acquainted with a few, then her life would be very different in the future, and in case she met her favorite ...... Thinking of this, the girl who was just beginning to fall in love couldn't help blushing slightly.
"Grandmother, can I go too?"
Seeing his sister Lin Lang's face full of joy, Lin Ke raised his head and asked. He is ten years old this year, although he is not as smart as his second brother Lin Qiong, but he is still much better than Lin Yu, and because of this, his usual schoolwork is also much heavier. Lin Ke was afraid that Mrs. Lin would not let him go to the poetry club for the reason that he would focus on studying, and stay with these elders all day long, how boring and boring it would be, Lin Ke had long thought that there would be an opportunity for him to go out and make more friends with the sons of the noble families in the capital, just like his eldest brother Lin Qiong. Thinking of Lin Qiong, Lin Ke's heart was filled with envy.
"Of course you can, Brother Ke has also grown up, so it's time to go out and see ......", the opportunity to go to Yuanweihou Mansion is not available every year, and Mrs. Lin naturally agreed to her good grandson's request.
This side was jubilant, but as soon as Mrs. Lin turned around, she saw the Lin Jue brothers and sisters sitting next to her, and the expression on her face couldn't help but stagnate, how could she forget that there are still these two broom stars and troublemakers in this Lin family?
No, she must not let these two people appear in the Yuanwei Hou Mansion, otherwise, with these two people here, the Lin family will definitely become the laughing stock of everyone that day. The third girl, Lin Lang, has also reached the age of saying that she is married, if something goes wrong at this juncture, it doesn't matter if Lin Jue breaks the jar anyway, but Lin Lang's family affairs will definitely be affected, which is also the last thing Mrs. Lin wants to see.
However, Mrs. Lin, who had just returned home from the south, didn't know what happened at the Lantern Festival Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month this year, and naturally she didn't know what happened to the Chen family of Taichang Temple Qing half a month ago, otherwise, she would definitely kill Lin Jue alive on the spot.
"Old lady, look at Yu'er......"
"Brother Yu is going to participate in the autumn siege in the fall, so it's better to concentrate on learning at home and don't walk around. Otherwise, Brother Qiong'er is already famous, and he, who is an elder brother, is still a white body, and it doesn't sound good to say! ”
As soon as Chen was about to speak, he was blocked by Mrs. Lin.
"There are also two girls, who are not young anymore, and they will be more female celebrities at home during this time, otherwise if they get along well in the future, they will not have any skills to accompany them!"
The old lady's few words seemed to be caring, but they directly blocked Lin Jue's brothers and sisters at home.
But this is what Lin Jue wants this time. She never believed in such a thing as pie falling from the sky, and the Yuanwei Hou Mansion handed over a post to invite them to participate in the poetry meeting for no reason, or the poetry meeting held by the Miao County Lord, what good things could be? Half a month ago, she remembered the events at the eldest princess flower party vividly. However, Lin Lang, who stayed in the south and squandered Zhonggong's money and enjoyed the life of fine clothes and food, naturally didn't know about it. Since this Lin Lang is so eager to try, then this sin will make her bear it on her behalf.
