Chapter 317: Indignation
Seeing his son so frustrated, Second Master Lin also felt a little distressed. But what can it be, who in the capital doesn't know that General Youzhou and his wife came to the door with a dowry, and the Gu family even accepted the gift, this family affair is a certainty, and it can't be changed anymore.
"Ting'er," Second Master Lin stretched out his hand and patted Lin Zhiting's shoulder, and comforted him hard: "Don't think about it, you have no fate with Gu Jiujie." ”
As soon as he heard Second Master Lin's words, Lin Zhiting's face turned even paler, he looked at his father with a begging face, and muttered, "No, Dad, no." I have a fate with her. You promised me...... You said yes...... Dad, you can't ...... like that."
Listening to his son's dejected nonsense, Second Master Lin was distressed, irritable and angry. Can he be blamed for this? It was obviously Gu San's Wang An, and after agreeing to him, he changed his hexagram. There is also the unreliable one of the fifth child, patting his chest and taking care of it in front of him, but now it's good, the Gu family has received the bride price from the Anguo Mansion, and they haven't heard any news.
The Gu family has one daughter and two Xu, which is simply unforgivable! Doesn't this take their Lin family in their eyes? As soon as Second Master Lin turned around, he went to the outer study, intending to go to Lin Xiang to complain. He felt that this matter couldn't be settled like this, and he had to ask Scholar Gu for a law school anyway
Second Master Lin was indignant, and the man in his forties ran to his father to complain, and the more he complained, the more angry he became, and he couldn't wait to go out directly to Gu Mansion to find a scholar Gu Xue's theory. He thought that Lin Xiang would be as angry as him, what kind of personality Lin Xiang had Lin Erye couldn't be clearer, he was stubborn and arbitrary, according to Lin Erye's opinion, Gu Fu did this, that is, he didn't give Lin Xiang face in public, and he, the father who was bound to repay him, definitely couldn't stand this anger.
Ran Goose didn't expect that the seventy-year-old Lin Xiang listened to his son's narration calmly, and just nodded lightly, "I know." This matter was originally your fault, and since Scholar Gu had already refused, you shouldn't let the fifth child go to the Gu family again. ”
"But father," Second Master Lin opened his mouth and wanted to retort: "Ting'er, he likes that Gu Jiujie, and he won't marry her a few times." You know, Nicholas kid ......"
"You're getting better." Lin sneered at his son and directly interrupted him: "Zhiting is a seventeen-year-old child, you can even let him threaten you." ”
"My son originally thought that Gu Daxue's Mansion and our family are also a good match," Second Master Lin's face was a little red, but he still argued strongly: "And Gu San is also outstanding among the sons of Gu Daxue, and the fifth brother has been buying property in Ningling for more than a year, and he has helped to make it a lot easier." ”
"You also know that your fifth brother mostly relies on him for help in Ningling," Lin Xiang replied coldly: "This was originally a good chat about a package of deals, the Gu family is convenient for us, in the future, Gu San will be transferred back to Beijing, we can make returns according to the rules, and not involving too much of each other is the cleanest and neatest cooperative relationship, don't you understand?" If you really have an in-law relationship with Gu San, and he has a lot to do with your fifth brother's business, do you think to yourself, is this him holding you, or are you holding him? Or maybe it's too deep and not beneficial to both parties. ”
"But father......" Second Master Lin opened his mouth again to try to distinguish again, but was unceremoniously interrupted by Lin Xiang.
"No, but!" Seventy-year-old Lin Xiang has been in a high position for many years, although he is old, he is still very imposing, he stared closely at his son's eyes, and said very decisively: "There is no need to mention this matter, I have my own plans for Zhiting's family affairs." ”
Lin Xiang's attitude, Second Master Lin naturally didn't dare to continue arguing, he was silent for a moment, and said with some embarrassment: "But Ting'er, this kid has always been stubborn, he has been in love with Sister Gu Jiu for a long time, and he has begged me several times, and now he ......"
"Love?" Lin Xiang suddenly laughed as if he had heard some big joke: "It's just a child who is less than twenty years old, what do you know." He was just happy when he saw it, and he just saw that Sister Gu Jiu was beautiful, and it faded after a long time. You go with him, Gu Jiujie gave Mu Zhengyi to the Anguo Mansion, if he has the ability to offend the Anguo Mansion, then let him go, go to Mu Zhengyi to rob people, I don't care, I just don't have this grandson. Don't think you can blackmail me. ”
"I see." Second Master Lin smiled bitterly, turned around and prepared to leave.
"Let me remind you," Lin Xiang didn't raise his head, and at the moment when Second Master Lin was about to step out of the door, he added another sentence: "Gu Jiujie is ordered to the Anguo Mansion, if you want to seek the law for your son, you must also pay attention to some proportions." The Gu family and the Anguo Mansion are in-laws, and the emperor has nothing yet, and others are even less qualified to open their mouths to talk about it. Don't let the Mu family hold a grudge against us for such a thing, if the old woman in the Anguo Mansion really wants to play tricks, even the emperor will give three points. ”
"Yes!" Second Master Lin nodded, turned around and went out.
After his footsteps disappeared completely, Lin Xiang threw away the pen he had been holding in his hand and snorted coldly: "Hmph!" Gu Zhengze! ”
Regarding this one-woman and two-Xu oolong, the Gu family was worried that Second Master Lin would make trouble, and Second Master Lin was indeed very unwilling. But the Gu and Lin families have a consensus on this matter, that is, since the marriage between Gu Yilan and Mu Zhengyi has been confirmed and will not change, it is best to know the dispute between the Lin family and the Gu family in private, don't make too much trouble, so as not to alarm the Anguo Mansion and provoke the old lady who is a little unscrupulous in the Anguo Mansion to come forward, and I am afraid that the matter will not end well.
However, in fact, this matter could not be hidden, and Mrs. Mu got the news on the second day of her employment. Because on this day, Gu Yilan's letter to Mu Hongsheng asking for help arrived in the capital. Now that everyone in the Anguo Mansion knows that Gu Sanye once promised the Lin family in private.
It's just that Gu Yilan, who is in Ningling, has lagged behind, and she doesn't know that she doesn't need to write to Mu Hongsheng for help at all, because when Mu Hongshang received the letter, she was already the eldest granddaughter-in-law of the Mu family.
Can I get a refund after receiving all the dowry?
"Sister Gu is really worried in vain," Mu Hongsheng smiled: "But the eldest brother is happy, holding Sister Gu's one-line letterhead, smiling stupidly, as if he has a treasure." ”
"Mother," Mu Erfu's skirt was slightly worried: "The matter between the in-laws and the Lin family ......"
"What's our business?" Old Madam Mu had a stiff neck, and she had a posture that didn't care about herself: "Just pretend not to know." Anyway, the Gu family has already accepted our dowry, and it is impossible to withdraw from our relatives. The date of asking for the name and the text has been set, and it must not be changed, so I don't care so much! ”
