Chapter 2079: A Divine Decree Descending from Heaven
The next day, early in the morning, Min went to Sweetwater Lane with the dowry, and the smile on his face did not change, and he almost beat the gongs and drums, hoping to let the whole city know.
Lin Zhang's husband had just died for a year, and when she looked at Zhou Ximei's red skirt sitting in the position of the housemother, she felt particularly dazzling, and couldn't help but say: "The second girl's family affairs were messed up last time, and I looked at the second brother and sister as if they were wearing this red skirt, how can they not be unlucky, and they still wear this one today." ”
Everyone could smell the smell of gunpowder on her body from a distance of three miles, Wang Shi turned his head to look at it, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, what kind of eyes are you, the second sister-in-law last time was a peony dark bottom pattern, this time the pattern is a rose." But the style looks like it was bought at the same store. ”
Now that Zhou Ximei has silver on her body and her waist is hard, she naturally wants to buy whatever she wants, she couldn't afford to wear it before, or she was reluctant to wear it, but now she has too few clothes to change her clothes a day. But I was afraid that the people of the Lin family would be suspicious, so I thought of a way to buy the same skirt of the same color and different patterns, hide it from the world, and satisfy my vanity.
I didn't think that Wang's eyes were really poisonous, and I could see it at a glance, Zhou Ximei was dressing, and when she saw that the old man was also staring at the clothes, she was afraid that he would be suspicious, so she hurriedly said: "The fourth brother and sister remembered wrong, and I also wore the same dress that day." This is not thinking that the Luo family came to the door today to ask for marriage, how can they also dress more festively, so as not to lose the face of the Lin family. ”
In the end, I didn't forget to satirize Lin Zhang's plain clothes.
How can anyone come to the door to dress up in plain clothes? What's more, there are happy events in the main family, but it just so happened that Lin Zhang's widow and son, how could he have the heart to pay attention to these details, and went to the second room according to his usual clothes, but he didn't expect this at all. Now that she is talking about it, Lin Zhang's is so angry that he is about to reason with her.
At this time, the maid ring outside the door came to report that the people of the Luo family had arrived.
"Quick, go get some tea." Master Lin hurriedly went out to answer.
Several sisters hid behind the screen with Lin Mei, you look at me, I look at you and smile secretly.
"Eldest sister, what does my brother-in-law look like?"
Among the sisters, Lin Xing didn't have much impression of Luo Sicheng, so she asked.
Peach urged narrowly: "When you look tall and handsome, right, eldest sister." ”
Seeing her sister joking, Lin Mei looked calm and waveless, and glanced at her with disgust, "As long as you talk a lot, what do you look like, don't you see it when people come?" ”
As soon as the words fell, Father Lin's joyful voice sounded: "The old lady doesn't need to be polite, please take a seat." ”
Lin Mei peeked from the edge of the screen, Daddy Lin was helping Grandma Gu to sit on the upper seat, that is, the position where Mrs. had just sit, Min was sitting on the chair on the right next to Lin Zhang, and Luo Sicheng was standing behind his mother, just facing the screen.
Lin Mei didn't expect the voyeur to be knocked squarely, so she quickly lowered her head and retracted it, and couldn't help but feel slightly hot at the root of her ears. Scolded: What is there to hide, is it possible to be afraid of him!
Naturally, the villagers should also be homely when they meet, reminiscing about the past, especially when the ancient grandmother is older, she is more willing to talk about some things in the past.
It was not easy to get to the point.
"I never thought that after so many years, our two parents are now going to become in-laws, seeing that God is like this, our two families are destined."
Father Lin was also full of emotion, and said: "Who said it wasn't, our family's first restaurant was bought from the Luo family, if there was no Luo family's help, our Lin family might not have to take many detours." ”
The matchmaker saw the stitches and said with a smile: "I didn't expect the two families to have such a relationship, as the saying goes, the moon guy is popular, whoever it should be is who, it can't be wrong, and it can't be changed." Congratulations to Mr. Lin, Mrs. Gu is now two friendly neighbors who have become in-laws, and the little brother of the Luo family is handsome and chic, showing talent; The girl of the Lin family is gentle and elegant, with a dignified appearance, it is a good time for men to get married and women to get married, or let's set up the marriage book today? ”
Everyone was amused by the matchmaker's usual pleasing words!
Grandma Gu smiled from ear to ear, happily took out a birthday eight characters from her sleeve, and handed it to the matchmaker: "I'll bother you with this." ”
The matchmaker smiled and asked Master Lin for the woman's birthday, and said a bunch of flattering words, and Father Lin nodded with satisfaction and took out Lin Mei's birthday.
Because the two families have already discussed, the provincial matchmaker has a lot of things, and the collection and the name asking are carried out at the same time.
Once a matchmaker's divination skills, Min took out a dowry list and handed it to Father Lin, and said with a smile: "The preparation is a bit hasty, and I also ask my father-in-law to take a look." ”
Father Lin can not read, but he is still very satisfied when he sees that the paper is neatly written on a page.
At this time, I saw Steward Xu running to report in a panic: "Master, master, there are many officers and soldiers outside the door who let you go out to receive orders." ”
"What" Daddy Lin thought he had misheard, and hurriedly asked, "What did you just say?" ”
Steward Xu repeated it again.
Everyone was stunned, there was no one in the Lin family who was an official in the court, how could there be a holy decree?
Daddy Lin suddenly thought that Meizi also entered the palace like this last time, could it be that he wanted to announce Lin Mei's entry into the palace again, or was it at this juncture? My heart was tight, and I hurriedly called Lin Mei out to ask.
"Could it be that you are going to enter the palace to cook for the nobles?"
Lin Mei raised her eyebrows and thought the same, but the day after tomorrow is Chongyang, and it's too late to enter the palace now? Looking at everyone's nervous expressions, he shook his head and said: "I don't know, it shouldn't be, my private recipe has long been handed over to the steward of the imperial dining room, or let's go to receive the order first, so as not to offend the people from the palace." ”
"Yes, yes. Receiving the order first, Steward Xu went to put the incense case on the table. Daddy Lin came back to his senses at this time.
Luo Sicheng's eyelids have been jumping since he got up this morning, and he laughed at himself for being too nervous, but he didn't expect the sudden holy decree to cause inexplicable panic, as if something big had happened.
Walking to Lin Mei's side, while everyone in the Lin family was walking out, she took care of her kung fu and whispered: "But what happened to the business?" ”
Lin Mei shook her head: "I'm wondering too." ”
Seeing the panicked and sad faces of the Lin family, he smiled at the old man led by him: "Master Lin, don't be afraid, this time is a happy event, quickly put the incense case in place, and after announcing the holy decree, the miscellaneous family has to rush back to the palace." ”
When everyone heard that it was a happy event, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and according to their identities, they knelt behind Master Lin and waited for the decree to be announced.
"Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said: The daughter of the Lin family is smart and agile, dignified and virtuous, noble and thrifty, diligent and supple, and the beauty of the foreign wisdom and the general of Shenyu can be called a match made in heaven,......"
Hearing this, Lin Mei's brain was completely messed up, and she gave marriage, but she didn't think it was actually a marriage.
After the prince read the holy decree, he smiled and waited for Master Lin to receive the decree, but he didn't expect him to kneel on the ground and not react at all, could it be that he was happy and stupid? It is no wonder that the small people in the market and the general are married, or the emperor gives them marriage, what an honor.
"Master Lin, get up and take the order! Congratulations! ”
Father Lin didn't dare to take it, and said with a sad face: "Father-in-law, how is this good, the little girl has already booked someone?" ”
Wang Gonggong didn't expect that there was such a place, and he was stunned for a moment, didn't General Liu say yesterday that the women's family hadn't booked yet? How could it be so fast, and hurriedly asked, "When was it ordered?" Why haven't you heard of it? ”
