Chapter 21: Choosing an auspicious day

Jia Zhengong said frankly: "Of course, this still needs to be said." My uncle and cousin won't rob the woman I love. It's a big deal, I'll introduce him to another talented and good-looking girl. ”

Wang Xiaohua waved his hand and said: "You can do it yourself, there is nothing for me here, so go back and choose a good festival as soon as possible!" ”

Jia Zhengong waved his hand and said, "Okay, thank you for your hard work, goodbye!" ”

Lan Yupei was afraid that Yu Wensi would carry it with Wang Xiaohua, so she quietly went to the Pingjiang Prefecture Government Office to discuss countermeasures with Han Donglang, and just arrived at the gate of the official office, she suddenly saw Han Donglang and a woman walking upstairs, and hurriedly followed up. Seeing the two of them stepping into Yu Wensi's bedroom, he immediately closed the door and hurriedly stuck outside the door to eavesdrop.

"Lord Han, I went out for a walk, and I didn't ask about the sweetheart you were looking for, but I accidentally heard some privacy, which seems to have something to do with the blue jade pendant you mentioned. You said that Yu Pei is your own uncle, Wang Xiaohua is your mother's own nephew, and he fell in love with Zhang Xiaoli on the night of the Lantern Festival, but his parents went to Zhang Xiaofang's house to propose marriage, asking Xiaofang to marry Wang Xiaohua, and did not want Zhang Xiaoli to marry into the Wang family. I thought it was a little strange, so I hurriedly went to the neighbors to inquire, and stole a little-known secret, I wonder if you already know? ”

Han Donglang asked curiously: "What secret, come quickly." ”

Wang Xiaohua was born to Wang Caishun and Miao Xianglian, they were lovers who grew up as childhood sweethearts, and they couldn't get married because of their parents' opposition, but before she married Zhang Lianyu, she and Wang Caishun had a husband and wife, so she was pregnant before marriage, and after being pregnant with Wang Caishun's child, she married Zhang Lianpu, which means that Wang Xiaohua was not born to Lan Yupei. In order to take revenge on Miao Xianglian, Zhang Lianyu seduced Wang Caishun's wife and gave birth to Zhang Xiaoli, ostensibly an abandoned baby picked up, but in fact it was his own flesh and blood, no wonder people in the village said that he was a woman over a man. Zhang Lianyu and Miao Xianglian gave birth to a Linglang Zhang Jianshuo. And Wang Caishun and your uncle have never had children. Fortunately, this pair of young people who look at each other have no blood relationship and can get married at any time, but their parents oppose it. ”

Han Donglang was shocked when he heard this, and asked hoarsely: "Where did you get the news from, is it reliable?" Are you sure? Lying will tear your mouth apart, and you will even kill your head, you know? ”

"If you want to lie, it's not me, I inquired in a store on the street, believe it or not."

Lan Yupei, who was outside the door, heard that the secret was known to outsiders, and hurriedly left the Pingjiang Prefecture Government Office, returned home in a panic, and locked herself in the bedroom and fell into deep thought.

Han Donglang sighed and said, "I have heard a little about this matter, but I have not tried to verify the truth or falsehood. But you are a newcomer, and you are not familiar with the place, how can you inquire about such a mysterious privacy? Maybe you're a professional detective, and your ability to drag people into the water is good enough, so I'll obey you, and if you don't have anything to report to me, then you should go back. ”

"Of course, I heard that there is a Ling Ai named Lin Manying who went to Wang Xiaohua's house, as if it was for a lifelong event."

Han Donglang said lazily: "I also heard that Lin Manying went to Wang Xiaohua to help him introduce him to his crush. This is not privacy, don't talk about them, it's time to eat, I'm going to investigate the case in the afternoon, you go back and continue to look for Han Chenxing, once there is news, run to tell me immediately, the reward will not be less for you. ”

"Well, I'll keep trying. Good bye! ”

The next morning, seeing Wang Xiaohua who came to Xizizi, his mood calmed down a little, and he took Xiaohua's hand and stepped into the threshold, and before he sat down to catch his breath, he didn't have time to make a cup of tea and hand it to him, so he anxiously tugged at the cuff of his shirt and asked, "Did his parents agree?" What did he himself say? Have you chosen a wedding date? When will the bride price be delivered to my home? ”

Xiaohua quipped: "Look at you monkey anxious, as if you want to throw yourself into his arms immediately, I don't know if your parents agree." If his family can marry such a good daughter-in-law as you, they want to laugh in their sleep. ”

"My father and his father are friends, how can I disagree, I told my parents about this last night, as long as his family agrees, my family willingly marry me."

"That's good, May 1st is your wedding day, hurry up and get married! I'm also going to tell your parents, his family will send a bride price to your house tomorrow morning, I have to go out the day after tomorrow to have something, and half a month later it happens to be your wedding day, and I can come back in time. ”

"Okay, you can squeak with my dad. Or I'll go tell my dad myself. If you have something to do, go back first! ”

"Okay, then I won't bother Lord Lingzun, goodbye!"

Three days later, Zhang Xiaofang hurriedly came to Wang Xiaohua's house, Lan Yupei hurriedly came out to greet her: "Miss Xiaofang, Xiaohua went to study with a teacher from afar after the provincial examination, and came back in about ten days, and said that the wedding date is set for May 1, I want to send a bride price to your family in the next few days, I don't know if Ling Zun agrees, please ask me to tell me, okay?" ”

Xiao Fang asked in confusion, "Really?" Why is it so fast, the wedding day is not sloppy, is it called Mr. to choose? My father and mother have no opinion, the bride price is free! ”

Lan Yu Peile said: "The wedding date on May 1 was chosen by Mr. Shanghao, and there are many people who can get married.

You're happily waiting to be the bride. ”

Xiao Fang smiled and said, "Well, I know, I'll go home and prepare to go." Thank you and goodbye! ”

Five days have passed in a blink of an eye, and Yu Zhuxiao heard that his cousin Jia Zhenxuan was going to marry Lin Manying as his wife, and he was so angry that he promised to be the matchmaker of himself and Manying, but now why does he want to marry Manying. I was so angry that I couldn't eat breakfast, so I hurriedly walked towards my aunt's house.

Jia Yihan saw Yu Zhuxiao coming to the door angrily, and hurriedly took his hand and stepped into the threshold and asked, "Yuzhu Xiao, what's wrong with you?" Who's you off? ”

"It's not your son-in-law, Jia Zhenxuan! It's so deceitful that he should come to me at once. ”

"Okay, wait a minute." Jia Yihan walked towards Ling Lang's study in a panic.

Yu Zhu Xiao also hurriedly followed, Zhen Gong heard the footsteps, hurriedly opened the door, saw the cousin behind his father, knew that the paper could not hold the fire, and blocked his father from the door with a wave of his hand, and pulled Yu Zhu Xiao into the door.

Yu Zhuxiao stood at the table and asked angrily: "Jia Zhenxuan, you promised to introduce Lin Manying to me, why do you want to marry her yourself." ”

"Cousin, don't be anxious, listen to me slowly. Manying and I are classmates in private school, and asked Wang Xiaohua to protect the media, but she said that the person she likes is me, and no one else will marry, and I have been secretly in love with Manying for many years, but I don't know if Manying likes me, and I have been buried in my heart until Xiaohua went to help you be a matchmaker, and I didn't know the truth, so Xiaohua pushed the boat down the river and fulfilled me and Manying. Please don't be angry, there are good girls, and I have already helped you find a girl who is both talented and good-looking, and is two years younger than Manying, sixteen years old this year, and four years younger than you. And knowledgeable, proficient in four books, five classics and six arts, embroidery skills are also famous, one in a hundred, is the average family background, ordinary people's children, I don't know if you like it? ”

"Whose girl, how does she look? Is it tall? Do you also live on this street? ”

"You have seen it twice, it is my sister Jia Lingfeng's good sister, the two of them often read and write poems together and embroider flowers, they look like flowers and moons, and have the temperament of Di Xian, if they can marry you, it can be said that one is Langyuan Immortal, and the other is beautiful and flawless. Just remember it, you came to my house and met her. ”

Yu Zhuxiao pondered for a moment and said: "I remember, when I entered and went in your house and collided head-on, the melon seed's face was white and red, glanced at me, turned around and ran away, isn't it?" ”

"Yes, she is the daughter of the salt merchant Zhang Lianyu, named Zhang Xiaoli, her appearance is impeccable, like a flower like jade, her skin is like clotted fat, she is talented, she is smart and studious, she is proficient in painting dragons, embroidered phoenixes, calligraphy and paintings, etc., and she is outstanding, you must like it when you see her today. Besides, Manying doesn't like you, and the twisted melon is not sweet, so Wang Xiaohua made a favor and introduced Manying to me, please don't care about the villain, if you are interested in Miss Zhang, I will immediately ask Ah Mei to invite her to come to my embroidery building, how about it? ”

Yu Zhuxiao hesitated for a moment and said, "It's better to wait until you get married to arrange this matter, don't be in a hurry now." ”

"Don't wait, Cao Cao Cao will arrive, her voice floated into the room, next door is my sister's embroidery building, the two of them may have any new tricks to embroider today, we might as well go and see."

"yes, okay." Yu Zhuxiao tidied up the gown, picked up the comb on the table and combed the bangs, straightened up and came to Jia Lingfeng's embroidery building with Jia Zhenxuan.

Jia Lingfeng suddenly saw a talented cousin coming to the embroidery building, and immediately stood up and asked in surprise: "Cousin, I usually warmly invite you to come to the embroidery building to guide the embroidery patterns and help select the embroidery thread. Is it a private interview with the embroidery picture? Xiaoli and I are trying to embroider a picture of a bamboo bird, if you have any good suggestions, please put them forward. ”

Yu Zhuxiao stared at Xiaoli and asked, "What a Peugeot girl, it's eye-catching, which daughter?" Do you embroider a picture of a hundred birds singing in the morning? I hope you and Cousin Ling Feng embroider a splendid pattern of a hundred birds contending and a hundred flowers blooming, and a hundred flowers competing for beauty under the embroidery picture, and a hundred birds soaring above the flowers, chirping non-stop, and joyful, can you embroider it? If so, how long will it take? ”

Zhang Xiaoli hesitated for a moment, looked at Jia Lingfeng and asked, "Can you embroider such a pattern?" How about I'll do it, with you as the main player? ”

Ling Feng glanced at his cousin and said, "Xiaoli, you are modest, who doesn't know that your embroidery skills are exquisite and skillful, but they are just hidden." I'll be the deputy, embroider according to you, and embroider the pattern that my cousin said about a hundred birds and a hundred flowers blooming in ten days, how about it? Have faith? ”
