Chapter 520: Forced to Marry
This time, Mrs. Xiao personally met Li Xiang, and hundreds of people up and down the Xiao family stood outside the gate in an orderly manner. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
When Li Xiang saw this situation, he was startled, could it be that something happened to Xiaojiazhuang? It was still Master Xiao who drove the crane west.
Li Xiang got out of the carriage and was about to ask his father-in-law Xiao Million beside him, when he saw Xiao Million's eyes glancing inside the gate. Li Xiang followed his gaze.
"Ahem...... "Mrs. Xiao coughed and walked out slowly with a stick.
"Master Li is here, and the humble house is full of brilliance. I've been waiting for a long time, I don't know if Lord Li's old covenant can be taken seriously? Mrs. Xiao squinted his eyes and said something.
Seeing this, Li Xiang couldn't help but gasp, looked at Xiao Taigong suspiciously, and said, "Old man, what kind of thing are you talking about, I, Li Xiang, a seven-foot man, spit foam and a nail, how can it not count!" ”
"That's good, come on, change my uncle's clothes." As soon as Mrs. Xiao's words fell, the two maids walked towards Li Xiang with the groom's official service in both hands.
Seeing this, Li Xiang suddenly realized and said with a smile: "What do I think is the matter? I wear it, I wear it, and I'm going to get married today, but I don't have a thing on my mind. Hahaha......"
After Li Da Bridegroom was dressed, he kowtowed three times to Xiao Taigong with a smile, but kowtowed to Xiao Wan again and shouted "Dad"! Xiao Million, who shouted from his father, trembled.
This ritual is very simple, that is, to go through the motions and comfort the people of the old Xiao family. When Li Xiang stepped in the door, Mrs. Xiao stopped him.
"Li Xiang, you are now the son-in-law of my Xiao family, as the saying goes, a son-in-law is half a son-in-law. Right now, you want to fight the country, even if my Xiao family smashes the pot and sells iron, I have to support our army to win the battle, don't you say? ”
"Yes, yes, yes." Li Xiang felt that he was about to cry in the face of such an open old man, and he couldn't wait to hug Mrs. Xiao and kiss him.
He came to visit today for two things, one was to ask the Xiao family for money and food, and the other was to marry the daughter of the Xiao family.
Mrs. Xiao stroked his white beard, nodded with satisfaction, and said: "As the saying goes, the country is easy to fight, but it is difficult to sit on the country, I heard that you fought well in Shaoxi Mansion and Jiang'an City, and even our Chongqing Mansion has spread all over it, saying that the Great Song Dynasty has a Xiao Li Tanhua, and the Mongolian Tartars can only run away when they see Xiao Li Tanhua, which is gratifying." Saying that, Mrs. Xiao pretended to be happy.
Li Xiang frowned when he heard this, the play that the old man sang, what he said did not match the preface.
"Okay, the old granddaughter Xiao Meier, that is, your wife, is now pregnant, dare to ask how to settle it?" Xiao is too fair.
It turned out that it was for the sake of the unborn child, and the Xiao family was too anxious.
"Placement? Of course, my Li Xiang's child follows me, as for the prince or the princess, it can only be decided after Mei'er is born, by the way, what about Mei'er? As he spoke, Li Xiang looked around.
"She is cultivating in the house, and it is windy outside, so she is afraid that she will catch a cold, so she walks and goes into the house to talk." Mrs. Xiao smiled and pulled Li Xiang towards the hall,
The living room and the front yard were already full of wine tables, Li Xiang followed Mrs. Xiao and the Xiao family to eat in the hall, while the back of the Xiao family ate in the front yard.
Especially those young girls who have not yet come out of the cabinet, they are chattering about Li Datanhua, who is famous all over the world. From time to time, there is a warbler and a swallow language, which is very pleasant.
"Brother Li is outstanding, talented, and really the most talented man in the world."
"Needless to say, he is now the son-in-law of our Xiao family, and we will be relatives of the emperor in the future."
"Uh......, I'm going to marry her when I grow up." A pink and tender little Lori devoured the white jade fingers of the onion and muttered to herself.
"Oh, Xiao Ling'er, you are not yet thirteen years old, you are thinking of spring, and you are not afraid of other people's jokes!"
"Xiao Ling'er is really not ashamed, if you want to marry, we will marry, and it won't be your turn to queue up......"
The older sisters made fun of Xiao Ling'er, and it was not difficult to find jealousy in their words, however, Xiao Ling'er pouted her cherry lips and said unconvinced: "People didn't say that now, when they grow up, ......, my mother said that the emperor has three palaces and six courtyards, and three thousand wives?" Also, people can memorize all the poems of Brother Li, hum! Are you okay? ”
A superb Lori has fallen, Li Datanhua is really harmful, if he knows about this matter, he will definitely be so beautiful that he can't sleep for three days.
When the woman in blue was about to make fun of Xiao Ling'er, Xiao Million raised her voice and said: "Today is the happy day of the Xiao family, and it is also the happy event of my family's beauty. If the men of the Xiao family are interested in joining the army and fighting the country with Li Xiang, they should sign up quickly. Declare in advance that the army has military laws, and the family has family rules, and if anyone violates the military order, there will be no forgiveness for killing! ”
When the man of the Xiao family, who was originally eager to try, heard that there was no forgiveness for killing, he couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, and sat back on the bench, not daring to come out. Only seven of them were still standing, their faces showing fortitude. Seeing this, Xiao Million nodded with satisfaction. It seems that there are still a few men in the Xiao family who are ambitious.
"Okay, good boy of the Xiao family! The seven of you eat first, and wait for Li Xiang's summons at any time. With that, Xiao Million walked into the hall with a smile.
The Xiao family forced Li Xiang to get married, which is also reasonable, just ask who will go bankrupt to help an outsider, in this feudal society where there is no name and no status, it is understandable for the Xiao family to let Li Xiang give Xiao Meier a name, and she is also pregnant with Li Xiang's "seed"!
Seeing that Li Xiang boldly agreed, the Xiao family struck while the iron was hot, wanting to install the juniors in the army to consolidate the power of the Xiao family. This trick can be described as: cunning.
Imagine that Li Xiang will be the emperor in the future, and the descendants of the Xiao family will make war exploits and should be rewarded. There must be someone from the Xiao family as an official in the court, who can shake the Xiao family in the future.
Li Xiang didn't know that this was something that could not be changed. He just wants the people of the Xiao family not to be arrogant, unruly, misguided, and unable to get off the stage.
At the banquet, Li Xiang personally appointed the juniors of the Xiao family, Xiao Qian, and Xiao De as personal guards, because these two had learned kung fu and had good skills. The remaining five remained in the city to take care of logistics.
Xiao Taigong is very satisfied, the march and battle are no better than others, it is a real sword and a real robbery, and there is no room for falsehood.
The remnants of the seat were removed, and Li Xiang was helped by two maids to Xiao Meier's room, and then he was hazy and drunk, and the poetry of "Li Shixian" improvised poetry.
"I don't know when I sleep in spring, mosquitoes bite me everywhere, I make a **** sound at night, and the virgin becomes a sister-in-law."
Xiao Meier sat alone in the gauze tent, glanced at Li Xiang with affection, and said angrily: "The official said that the concubine is a woman who does not abide by women's morals, corrupts the style of the Xiao family, and is not worthy of ......staying with the officials" Saying, Xiao Meier cried aggrievedly, and said: "The concubine is also self-aware, if the official ......, you can leave, let the concubine and the unborn child depend on each other......
