Chapter 269: Garden Party = Blind Date?
After Chang Tianlei finished telling General Chang his thoughts, General Chang was stunned. Since Chang Tianlei came back, although the Chang family, including him, knew that he had grown up and matured a lot, they didn't expect that Chang Tianlei could think so far.
"Hehehehehe, good boy, grow up. In the future, I will become a family, and I don't have to worry about grandpa. General Chang smiled and patted Chang Tianlei on the shoulder, and walked away, leaving Chang Tianlei alone, standing in the courtyard for a while and not understanding what his grandfather meant just now, you didn't even agree to the choice of daughter-in-law, how to talk about starting a family.
General Chang ignored Chang Tianlei's confusion, although he had some intentions in his heart and had the idea of fulfilling Chang Tianlei, but since Concubine Lan arranged for Chang Tianlei to go to a garden party, it was better to let him go around, if he was not firm in his heart and changed his mind, he would not be able to complain about him.
Lin family.
"Grandmother, Xiao Qi has come to greet you." Lin Yuewei happily ran into Mrs. Lin's house.
"Hehe, come in." Old Madam Lin's voice was also full of joy.
"When my grandmother saw Xiao Qi, she forgot about us all outside the clouds." Lin Yueyu, the second son-in-law of the Lin family, is eighteen years old this year, studying in the academy on weekdays, and just today is resting, and he followed his sisters and brothers to greet the old lady early in the morning.
"You have a lot of strange words," Mrs. Lin was in a good mood and smiled a little, "You are busy on weekdays, and Xiao Qi can accompany my old woman from time to time." Are you still jealous as a brother? ”
"Where do you dare," Lin Yueyu looked scared. "Xiao Qi, my brother has a good thing here, I gave it to you, you have to say a few more good words about my brother in front of my grandmother." He pulled the youngest brother of the family to his side, took out a lamb carved from white jade, and placed it in his hand.
"Second Brother Xie Lu." Lin Yuewei was not polite at all, and put it away directly. With a grin, he walked up to Old Madam Lin.
"Look, grandmother." Hand the white jade lamb to Old Madam Lin.
"It's a nice thing, you can keep it for fun." Old Madam Lin nodded with a smile and said. "However, I'll have someone weave a red rope for you later."
"Hmm." After Lin Yuewei finished speaking, he sat down beside Mrs. Lin.
These third generations of the Lin family. They all envy Lin Yuewei's good luck. The position next to Mrs. Lin is covetous, but many people want to sit down, but apart from him, others rarely get this kind of opportunity.
"Grandmother's complexion is really getting better and better." Lin Qingxue. Lin Yuewei's own sister. sat relatively close to Mrs. Lin. Speak to her first.
"That's it. What good things did Grandmother get? Or is there something good? "Lin Qinglan, Lin Yueyu's sister, the third oldest among the girls of the Lin family.
"You guys. You'll be staring at my ideas," Mrs. Lin was in a good mood surrounded by so many grandchildren, "However, this time it's not your share, you can't drink the wine given by others." Old Madam Lin said to a few young ladies of the Lin family.
"Grandmother, since it's wine, and we're adults, we should be able to drink it." Led by Lin Yueyu, the four or five young masters of the Lin family looked at Mrs. Lin with bright eyes.
"You can't do it even more." Old Madam Lin shook her head and said, but she refused to tell them why.
"Alright, don't pester grandmother anymore." Lin Qinglan saw several brothers and brothers playing with their grandmother, and hurriedly stopped, "That's the wine for grandmother to nourish her body, do you want to rob it?" ”
As soon as her words came out, everyone present was honest.
"Grandmother, what kind of wine is that, isn't it delicious?" Lin Yuewei couldn't quite understand the meaning of wine to his brothers, and asked with some curiosity, "I also want to drink with my sister." Lin Yuewei said amazingly.
Second Young Master Lin Yueyu, Third Young Master Lin Yuefeng, Fourth Young Master Lin Yuefan, Fifth Young Master Lin Yuetao, listened to his words, and all set their eyes on Lin Qingxue. The only person who can let him call his sister here is Lin Qingxue.
"Not me." Lin Qingxue hurriedly waved her hand, she didn't have the kind of wine Lin Yuewei said in her hand, and she secretly hated Lin Yuewei for actually calling that country girl her sister, and where did she put her face as a sister, and her resentment towards Lin Zhu deepened.
Except for Lin Qinglan, everyone else was a little puzzled, this is in the Lin family, can Lin Yuewei still call others like this?
"Alright, don't look at her." Old Madam Lin relieved Lin Qingxue with her words, "The wine sent by the people, except for the wolfberry wine that your mother and I drunk, the others are all with your grandfather." ”
The others just stopped.
"Grandmother, why haven't we heard that the seventh brother has another sister?" Fourth Young Master Lin Yuefan, Lin Yuewei's brother, asked curiously.
"Didn't anyone tell you?" Old Madam Lin was puzzled, this matter should not be a secret in the Lin Mansion.
The young masters of the Lin family shook their heads in unison.
"Actually, it's not a big deal." Mrs. Lin told Lin Yuewei what happened after he went missing in Tianyou Temple.
"The bamboo girl got something from your mother, and she felt that she couldn't get it, so she brought her home-brewed wine. It tastes good, and your mother and I feel much more comfortable drinking it. "Mrs. Lin has learned the benefits of drinking wolfberry wine often, and she has indeed never drunk a better wine than the wolfberry wine sent by Lin Zhu, so she automatically changed Miss Lin to Bamboo Girl, this kind of intimate title.
Only then did everyone understand what had happened.
After Lin Zhu's matter was over for a while, Mrs. Lin talked about the purpose of bringing them together.
"Princess Changmin wants to hold a golden autumn chrysanthemum garden party on September 20, and she also sent a post to our family, so you can all go when the time comes." Except for Lin Yueze, the eldest son of the uncle Lin Boxiang's family, and Lin Qingyue, the eldest daughter of the Lin family, who are married, the others have not yet married.
The second young master Lin Yueyu even talked about the change of marriage color, and his family didn't want him to see others, which became a heart problem for the second lady Wu.
Old Madam Lin also wanted to take advantage of this opportunity, if he could take a fancy to it, it would be the best.
The third eldest of Uncle Lin's family, Lin Yuefeng, is two years apart from Lin Yueyu, and it is almost time. Lin Jiqiu, the fourth eldest of the Lin family, is a concubine, his eldest son, the fifth young master Lin Yuetao, and Lin Shurui's eldest son, the fourth young master Lin Yuefan, are in the same year, both of them are eleven years old, but Lin Yuefan is older, and the two of them are still young, so they are not in a hurry, so they go along, just to see the world. There are other concubines who are too young to participate like Lin Yuewei.
The highlight is on the ladies of the Lin family.
The Lin family has two concubines, Lin Qingping is thirteen years old and Lin Qinghui is eleven years old. The second eldest family of the Lin family, the concubine Lin Qinglan is fourteen years old, and the concubine Lin Qingfang is twelve years old. The third elder of the Lin family, the concubine Lin Qingxue is ten years old, and the concubine Lin Qingwei is ten years old and Lin Qingxue is two months apart. The fourth elder of the Lin family, Lin Qingrui is nine years old, and there are two younger sisters, Lin Qinglu, and Lin Qingwen are even younger.
So in the end, the people who really want to go are Lin Yueyu, Lin Yuefeng, Lin Yuefan and Lin Yuetao. The girls are Lin Qinglan, Lin Qingping, Lin Qinghui, Lin Qingxue, Lin Qingfang and Lin Qingrui.
The Lin family alone can go so much, it is conceivable that the officials above the fourth grade in the capital may be easy to count, but their family members have a few ladies and talents of appropriate age, but it is difficult to count.
The garden party hosted by Chang Min Gong is actually a blind date conference, but except for a few close people, no one knows what to do, the main purpose of this conference is to choose a suitable wife for Mu Qiyue. If it breaks out in advance, there must be many families who are unwilling to let the daughters of the family come out.
After all, the sewage on Mu Qiyue's head has not been cleaned up yet, his reputation has always been very bad, and few parents are willing to marry their carefully raised daughter to a person who has been expelled from the house and has bad conduct.
And it was rumored in the capital that Mu Qiyue was already overwhelmed, so he was even more abandoned from the selection of his son-in-law.
Princess Changmin also knew this, so she concealed Mu Qiyue's presence that day.
"Imperial aunt, this is not very appropriate, I still don't want to go." After Mu Qiyue knew Princess Dao Changmin's plan, he hurriedly found her home and politely declined her kindness.
"What, your wings are stiff now, and you don't listen to your aunt's words?" Princess Changmin didn't pay attention to his refusal at all, but first buttoned him up with a big hat.
Mu Qiyue sighed in his heart, and said in his heart, who taught the imperial aunt this method of taking the lead, she didn't know this trick before.
"Of course you have to listen to the words of the imperial aunt." Mu Qiyue said flatteringly. In addition to the emperor and Mu Qingqi, Princess Changmin is the elder who treats him best, and she will always carefully see his various situations, when he is bullied by his own brother and misunderstood by his parents, she will always comfort him gently, so although Mu Qiyue does not listen to his parents, he still listens to Princess Changmin's words.
"Then it's decided, if you don't come that day, be careful that I let the emperor go to you." Princess Changmin put down the threat, leaving Mu Qiyue speechless.
He estimated that the emperor and Prince Qi must have participated in this plan, and they couldn't wait to see his jokes.
are all people he can't refuse, despite this, Mu Qiyue secretly decided in his heart that he wanted to find an opportunity to embarrass them, such as Zhuji sake this autumn, and give them later.
The emperor who was sitting in the palace, and Mu Qingqi, who was sitting in the palace of King Qi, suddenly felt a chill coming from behind. I turned my head to look, but I found nothing. They all shook their heads, taking it as their own delusion.
However, Lord Changmin also assigned Mu Qiyue a task, that is, he was responsible for all the fruits needed for the garden party, and Princess Changmin specifically mentioned the special watermelon.
This made Mu Qiyue very embarrassed, how could there be watermelons in September? Isn't that hard for him?
Mu Qiyue, who had nothing to do, had no choice but to hit Lin Zhu's mind again. (To be continued......)
