Volume 1 Yang Guandong Goes Chapter 86 The Wedding of the Shi Clan
"The son is young and dignified, and he is in the age of amorous youth, what is the sin of loving the woman he likes! It's just that the slave family doesn't have this blessing, and the son clearly pities me, but pretends to be fine! β
Liu Nan'er wiped away the tears on her face with a handkerchief, and her mood calmed down a little.
"I'm not afraid of Miss Nan'er's jokes, there is already a woman in Khotan in the Western Regions who has a marriage contract with me! There is a girl in Loulan who is looking through the autumn water, waiting for my return! There is also a beautiful woman in Chang'an, the western capital, who has made a private life with me, and the appointment will never be lost! Miss Nan'er looks beautiful and beautiful, even if Jincheng is reluctant, she can only watch it from afar! Your Jiangdong Liu family is not an ordinary family, and now Sister Ling and my second brother will be married to Qin and Jin again! Such an old friendship and the relationship between in-laws are related to the honor and disgrace of the family, even if Jincheng is affectionate, he will not dare to provoke Miss! β
In order to make this poor and lovely in-law sister die for me, I told her all the romances that I had caused all the way east.
"Sure enough, it's a merry affair! Childe is really temperamental, laughing at the slave family! β
My silly sincerity was finally exchanged for a beautiful woman's laughter.
"If you can bring the slave family with you when the son goes north, these beautiful sisters will help you collect them!"
"Accepted? How does Miss Nan'er receive it? I couldn't help but ask curiously.
This problem that has been bothering my heart can be solved by someone, of course, I am willing to listen to it.
"For a wife, a concubine, and a maidservant, hehe, the slave family doesn't want any title, and it is enough to always accompany the son-in-law to solve problems for the son!"
Liu Nan'er laughed and said, Wu Nong's soft words, which are as sweet as water, are intoxicating, but I was so frightened by her vain arrangement that I jumped off the horse.
"Miss Nan'er, this land south of the Yangtze River is full of scholars and heroes, as long as Miss wants to find what kind of man she can't find, why do you have to rely on me!"
"The son is wrong, the daughter of the scholar clan does not marry the common people, it is the style of the Jiangnan world, and it is a matter of honor and disgrace to the clan. Who would dare to marry such an ominous widow as me! The mother's parents will eventually grow old, every time they think of the bitter shadow of the green light, the long night, the hardship of life is worse than death, the slave family has nothing to love, until I meet the son! β
Speaking of the sad part, Liu Nan'er whined again.
Before the age of twenty, my life was full of family affection and happiness, and I can't imagine what kind of life Liu Nan'er lived on the surface, but I have a heroic heart to save beauty.
"Miss Nan'er, say it! How can I help you except take you as a wife! β
Seeing such a charming and moving Liu Nan'er so lonely and helpless, the pride of helping her get out of the sea of suffering spontaneously arises.
"Take me to the Northland, take me to the Western Regions, even if it is the Hu people who sold me to the shepherd on the way, the slave family has no complaints!"
Liu Nan'er has already made up her mind, if she doesn't agree to help her, if something happens in the future, I will regret it for the rest of my life.
"I'll have no problem taking you to the Western Regions, my mother, Mrs. Khotan, likes a beautiful and clever girl like you! But there are rules for business, and it is an iron law set by my grandfather decades ago that I am not allowed to take my female dependents on the road, and how dare I exceed the rules! β
Thinking of this rule in the team, I can't help but feel difficult.
"Brother in the family! Brother! Childe! You promised to help the slaves! After listening to my words, Liu Nan'er jumped out of the carriage and hugged me incoherently.
"Miss Nan'er begged, how dare Jincheng be a bystander again! Hehe. But how can it take you on the road? Grandpa will definitely not be allowed to travel with my caravan! β
"Don't worry about this son, the slave family has already thought about it! After the eighth sister got married, I went back to Jiangbei to beg my father, and asked him to send me a few family members, three or two accompanying girls, and prepare a few carriages to go on the road first! We can make an appointment to wait for you at an inn in Hexi, at that time it was far away from Jiangnan, and your grandfather and grandfather were embarrassed to drive me back even if they hated the slave family! β
Liu Nan'er grinned, revealing her style of Miss Liu's daughter.
"Didn't you leave home secretly and tell Mrs. Liu? Can your dad promise you that? I was surprised.
"My father has always felt sorry for Nan'er, if he knows that the slave family entrusts you, the eldest son of Yimen, he will definitely do his best to fulfill us!" Liu Nan'er looked at me infatuatedly and said.
"Sister in-law, I just promised to help you, but I didn't promise you anything! In the future, when you come to the Western Regions, let my grandma find another husband for you, anyway, the Hu people in the Western Regions will not care if you have ever been married! When that happens, you can't blame me! β
I scared her, and I couldn't help but think of Sha Mihan, if this Liu Nan'er was married to him in the future, this stupid big man would have to go crazy.
"Will the son be willing to give up the slave family?" Liu Nan'er smiled and returned to the car.
"Don't talk to anyone about our meeting today! During this time, the slave family will no longer see the son, so as not to change halfway! Childe designates a place, and the slave family will take the first step and wait for Childe there! β
Remembering what important matters were not made clear, Liu Nan'er lifted the curtain and said softly.
"Find a painter named Bai Xuan in the Thousand Buddha Cave in Mingsha Mountain, Dunhuang County, Hexi, and say that you are the family of Master Yi Linfeng, and he will arrange a place for you to stay!"
I rolled over and replied loudly.
Originally, considering that the horse thieves in Hexi were rampant and barren for thousands of miles, they wanted to arrange a rendezvous in Chang'an, and there was a good response on the road.
But considering that Miss Shangguan Yanxi may still be waiting for me in Chang'an City, it will be embarrassing when everyone meets, so I will give up.
Mrs. Liu herself is an old man in Longxi, and she should be no stranger to the world's style and landforms in Hexi.
The beloved seventh daughter is away from home, and this old rich man will definitely make careful arrangements, and I don't need to worry too much.
"Nan'er has written it down! On the way back, Childe must remember to pick up the slave's house! β
Liu's carriage ran slowly again, and Liu Nan'er waved the champa in his hand at me, shouting with tears in his eyes.
"Don't worry, Miss Nan'er! The north is not as good as the south of the Yangtze River, and the lady has to take care of it on the way! β
Immediately watching Miss Nan'er's carriage fade away in the middle of the road, I had a soft feeling in my heart that I had never felt before.
This widowed sister entrusts her future life to me, a wanderer, how rash!
However, the gentleman has promised to cross her out of the sea of misery, so let this poor beautiful woman be regarded as his own sister from now on.
After returning to Longxi Manor sullenly, Qin Chong and Sha Mihan were helping the master in the back kitchen to chase the grazing cattle and sheep all over the mountains.
There are only a few days left in the wedding day of Wuwei, and the whole manor is shrouded in a festive and lively atmosphere.
Those farmers who are attached to my manor have successively sent all kinds of new vegetables, fruits, chickens, ducks, fish and eggs to celebrate the young master's wedding.
Grandpa and Uncle Che have changed into vermilion satin wide coats, and are shaking their feather fans to check the preparation of every link in the manor.
They are also like the old men of the local gate lord clan, their faces are full of rouge powder, red and fragrant, which makes people look absurd.
"Grandpa, why don't you put on the fat powder!"
Seeing my grandfather like this, I quickly handed over my mount to the guy who was sweeping the floor, and walked forward with a loud smile.
"Hey! O Jincheng! It's called following the locals! On the day of the first day, not only will I smear these things, but your grandfather, Uncle Su, you, Chang'an, Wuwei, and all the maids and men in our entire manor will be smeared, if nothing else, just to celebrate! Ha ha! β
Grandpa's smile didn't matter, the rouge that had just been wiped on his face fell to the ground in large chunks, and the vicissitudes of life like a fairy wind were so bad that people couldn't bear to look at them directly.
"Didn't you say that you would go to Tai Academy to pick up Wu Wei? Why did you just go out and come back? β
Grandpa remembered what I had told him about leave just now, and asked curiously.
"Oh! When I went out, I forgot to bring some silver taels with me, so I went back to get it! "I casually made up a lie.
Now at this moment, I can't mention Liu Nan'er's northward journey to my grandfather for half a sentence.
Although the old man is open-minded, if he knows that his eldest grandson wants to elope with Mrs. Liu's widowed daughter, his grandfather will definitely not agree.
So far, I haven't figured out how to talk to my grandfather about it.
It's better to wait until Liu Nan'er and we meet on the sandbank this autumn, and let this clever woman tell him personally.
With my grandfather's compassion, he will not embarrass the hard-working daughter of his deceased family, at most I will be punished with flesh and skin.
On the day before Wuwei's wedding, my grandfather and Uncle Su, who went to Wuyue and Tanzhou to purchase silk and satin, finally returned.
In addition to the goods purchased and retained by local merchants in Jiankang, there are a total of 10,000 horses of silk, which is the largest number of western transportation in the past ten years.
The silk cloth has been collected and is now stored in an inn in Xiapi County, Jiangbei.
The carriages and horses for the northbound have also been arranged, and there are still a dozen or so men left to take care of them there.
As long as Wuwei's wedding is over, the caravan will set off across the river and take advantage of the midsummer of Jianghuai to speed up to the north, so as not to suffer the hot and humid mosquitoes and flies in the southeast summer.
And the Liu Mansion in Jiangbei temporarily lived in the Liu Mansion in Jiankang City a few days in advance for the convenience of the eighth daughter Liu Keer's relatives and relatives.
Marriage has always been dominated by men, so on the day of the wedding, all the old relatives and protΓ©gΓ©s of Mrs. Liu, as well as those who are also overseas Chinese, all came to the Longxi Manor with floats and horses.
Fortunately, thanks to Liu Nan'er's pre-arrangement, we, the new Jin clan, were able to have no obvious faux pas and shabby when these VIPs came to the door.
