202. The Day of Uncertainty X
Lin Xue became serious, thought for a while and said, "Dad, don't worry, I have promised to let him make his own decisions about Feng'er's marriage, and others will not have a chance." ”
Old Man Lin was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "That's fine, Feng'er's achievements in the future will definitely not be low, and ordinary girls are really not worthy of him." ”
Lin Xue smiled and didn't say anything, it was also for this reason that she promised Li Feng not to interfere in his marriage.
At noon, Lin Xue met Li Qi at the door, followed by Li Fu with a happy face, saw Lin Xue arched his hand, and said, "Third brother and sister, congratulations, Feng'er has been admitted to the lifter, I think our Li family will soar in the future." ”
Lin Xue tugged at the corners of her mouth, and was very disapprehensive of what Li Fu said, it was her son who was admitted to the promotion, and she wanted to take advantage of the rest of the Li family.
"Big brother, is there anything wrong with you coming here? If you don't have to, go back first, we still have something to do at home. Lin Xue said unceremoniously.
Li Fu's face sank and said, "Third brother and sister, I'm here to congratulate you, how can you drive people away." ”
Lin Xue pulled Li Qi over from behind and said, "Big brother, Feng'er is coming back soon, we have to help him celebrate, I really don't have time to entertain you." ”
After speaking, Lin Xue walked in and locked Li Fu out of the door, Li Qi pointed to the door and said, "Xiaoxue, what are you doing here, big brother, he also has good intentions." ”
"What kind of intentions, it's clear that you're here to take advantage, I don't want to stay under the same roof with this kind of person." Lin Xue said as she walked inside, "The head of the house, my father didn't say anything." ”
Li Qi sat down, poured a cup of tea for Lin Xue and said, "Dad was very happy after hearing this, and said that he would personally go to the village entrance to pick Feng'er back, by the way, Xiaoxue, Dad also said that he wanted to hold a banquet in the old house to celebrate Feng'er, and I agreed." Li Qi said that in the end, his voice became quieter and quieter, and he was too excited at that time, so the old man agreed to mention it, and by the time he reacted, it was a foregone conclusion.
Lin Xue pointed at Li Qi and sighed, "Forget it, then let's do it in the old mansion, but the money in charge is paid by their father, or by us, and who will draw up the menu." ”
Li Qi scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "Of course the money is ours, my mother said that I would give her an extra fifty taels of silver for the venue fee, but I refused, and my father also said that my mother would be punished." ”
Lin Xue sneered twice, when Li Ping got married last year, the Wang family forced them to take out twenty taels of silver as a congratulatory gift, and now that they think about it again, they really want money.
"Xiaoxue, what do you want." Li Qi raised his right hand and shook it in front of Lin Xue.
"Nothing." Lin Xue slapped his hand down and said, "Master, let me tell you, I just threw away our family's money, and I won't cheap others, and I will pay the venue fee, and I didn't ask to hold a banquet in the old mansion, if my mother is not convinced, let him tell his father to go." ”
"I know, I know." Li Qi patted Lin Xue on the back and said, "Okay, Xiaoxue, don't be angry, didn't I refuse it all?" Don't worry, you won't make any trouble if you have a father. ”
"That's for the best." Lin Xue said impatiently.
In the next few days, Lin Xue and Li Qi started a big purchase in the town, vegetables, rice, noodles, oil, and trucks were delivered to the old house, at first Wang was full of joy that she could at least scavenge half of these things, but she didn't expect the old man to order that no one could move these things, even if the banquet was not used up, the rest would be sent back to Lin Xue's house.
Wang looked at the things piled up in the kitchen with a gloomy face, looked around to see that there was no one, picked up a bundle of vegetables and threw it on the ground, and stepped on it fiercely with his feet, "Let you eat, let you eat, isn't it just a lifter?" What's the big deal, when Ping'er's son grows up, he will definitely be able to come back with a top prize, and see how proud you are one by one. ”
After Wang finished venting, he kicked the rotten vegetables into the firewood, turned around and walked out, and the old man appeared ghostly beside the old lady, looked into the kitchen, and said, "Old woman, what were you doing in there just now?" ”
Wang looked at the old man in horror, patted his chest and said, "Old man, you scared me to death, I just went to the kitchen, what else can I do." ”
"Really." The old man looked at the Wang family suspiciously, and said after half a salary, "It's okay if you don't do anything, I warn you that if there is a problem in Feng'er's banquet, I won't spare you." ”
"Got it." Wang walked back to the upper room with his little feet, and muttered in a low voice, "The dead old man will play a majestic role in front of me." ”
The old man sat on the kang, saw that Wang's face was unconvinced, sighed and said, "I know you feel sorry for Ping'er, but Feng'er has a chance and it is good for the whole family, you can't take a long-term view." ”
"What good can it be." Wang said disdainfully, "Li Feng's little rabbit cub was not close to us at all by her mother, you see that the third child has earned so much money and has not said that he will honor us a little, then his son will not be able to take care of us." ”
The old man was silent all of a sudden, what Wang said was exactly what he was worried about, the reason why he insisted on holding the banquet in the old mansion this time was to mend the relationship with Li Feng.
Wang's eyes rolled, and he whispered in the old man's ear, "Old man, in fact, there are other ways to win over Feng'er, let's find him a daughter-in-law, isn't it over, isn't there a saying, if you have a daughter-in-law, you forget your mother." ”
The old man glanced at the Wang family and said hesitantly, "This method is not very good, after all, Feng'er's father and mother are here, and it is not our turn to call the shots, and it is not easy to find this candidate." ”
Wang smiled mysteriously and said, "Old man, you forgot, my cousin is married to an official, and her little granddaughter is just sixteen years old this year, so she is more than enough to match Feng'er." ”
"The eunuch's family is good." The old man stroked his beard and said, "Old woman, then you can tell your cousin to see if she is willing to marry her granddaughter." The old man said this, but in his heart he felt that there was no problem, Wang's cousin-in-law, that is, a petty official with sesame mung beans, was still in a remote mountain village, there was no oil and water at all, and his life was very hard.
Wang nodded and said, "Old man, my cousin must be fine with it, but the third daughter-in-law is very shrewd, what if she doesn't agree." "The Wang family had this idea before, but Lin Xue was so tight that she didn't have any room to exert herself.
The old man knocked on the table and said, "Let's take a look first, if Feng'er is really disobedient, then use this method, and then I will deal with the third daughter-in-law." ”
Wang was overjoyed, remembered one thing again, and said, "Old man, that money can't fall into the hands of the third daughter-in-law, I still want to buy a house for Ping'er." ”
"Okay, feel free to do so." The old man waved his hand and fell into deep thought again.
Three days later, Li Feng's carriage arrived at the entrance of the village, Li Qi lit the firecrackers that had been prepared, and after a loud crackling sound, Li Feng stepped down from the carriage.
"Dad, mother, uncle, aunt." Li Feng shouted in turn.
Lin Xue's eyes turned red all of a sudden, and she took Li Feng's hand and said, "Feng'er, you are finally back, my mother is about to kill you, I have lost so much weight, and when I go back, my mother will make up for you." ”
Li Feng withdrew his arm in embarrassment and said, "Mother, so many people are watching." ”
Lin Xue patted him, "Look what's wrong, when a mother cares about her son, I'll see who can say anything." ”
"Okay Xiaoxue, let's get in the car, let's talk about it when we go back." Richie persuaded from the sidelines.
Lin Xue touched her tears and climbed into the carriage, Li Feng and Yunyun also sat on it, and the others got into other carriages.
When he walked to the old house, Lin Xue's carriage was stopped, and the old man shouted outside the car, "Feng'er, come down quickly, let grandpa see, our family has a person this time, it's really brilliant." ”
Li Feng glanced at Lin Xue helplessly and said, "Mother, then I'll go down first, you wait for me at home." ”
Lin Xue nodded, the old man came out in person to invite, if she didn't let Li Feng go, she wouldn't be scolded to death, hey, Old Man Lin and the Hua family were also anxious to see Li Feng, it seemed that they could only wait longer.
After Li Feng went down, Lin Xue thought about it and walked out, she still accompanied Feng'er, under the car, Lin Xue poked Li Qi and said, "Master, you and Yunyun will go back first, and Feng'er and I will come back later." ”
Li Feng had already followed the old man into the upper room, Lin Xue strode over, pushed open the door and looked, good guy, everyone is here, even Li Chengdu rushed back from the town.
"Dad, mother." Lin Xue screamed, and casually found a stool to sit down, anyway, she was here to accompany Li Feng, and it didn't matter if the others ignored it.
The old man put all his thoughts on Li Feng, took Li Feng's hand and asked him to take out the pastries in the cabinet, and personally took one and handed it to Li Feng.
Li Feng hurriedly took it, stuffed it into his mouth, and said vaguely, "Grandpa, I can come by myself, it's all a family, why are you so polite." ”
The old man nodded and said with a smile, "That's right, Feng'er said it well, and there is no need to be polite between the family." ”
Li Feng was vigilant, and didn't dare to take the old man's words casually, the two of them had a conversation, and Li Cheng suddenly said, "Brother Feng, you are eighteen years old, and you have been admitted to the Juren again this time, you should also consider marrying a daughter-in-law to come back, otherwise others will think that there is something wrong with you." Li Cheng was dissatisfied with Li Feng, and he was very dissatisfied with Li Feng's entrance examination, thinking that he only got it through the back door, and he didn't have real skills at all.
Lin Xue's eyes immediately turned to Li Cheng, and asked this question suddenly, and the relationship between Li Cheng and Feng'er has always been bad, it must not be out of concern, that is, it is the idea of fighting ghosts again.
Lin Xue said coldly, "Eldest nephew, Feng'er's marriage has me as a mother to worry about, you don't have to worry." ”
