Chapter 373: Back to the door
"I've seen my uncle, I've seen my aunt." Luo Sicheng's two nephews heard the footsteps and hurriedly stood up to greet them.
Although they had met a few times before, Lin Mei really didn't know what their names were.
Lin Mei smiled and nodded with Luo Sicheng, and then listened to him and said, "This is Ting Yu, Ting Wei, the son of the eldest brother." ”
The brothers look very similar, but their eyebrows and eyes are very similar to Min's, more beautiful and delicate than Luo Sicheng, the difference is that his brothers' eyelashes are long and curled, which makes their eyes look more energetic.
The coughing sound in the inner room kept coming, and then, a housekeeper came out of the house, Lin Mei had just met, and she was the one who searched for Xipa.
"Sir, madam, old lady, please."
Luo Sicheng didn't say anything, just nodded, took Lin Mei's hand and walked towards the inner room.
There was Grandma Gu lying in the bed, and Luo Sicheng's little sister-in-law Guo Zhang's was sitting next to the bed, she was holding the decoction and waiting for her aunt to take it, Min turned her head and told the maid something, and saw that the youngest son came over with the bride to say goodbye, and hurriedly said to Grandma Gu: "Mother, Brother Cheng and Sister Mei have come over to greet you together." ”
Grandma Gu only looked at Luo Sicheng and Lin Mei with her eyes, she was really a talented woman, and after taking a few breaths, she could speak: "The bride recognizes her relatives today, how can she lie down all the time, help me up." ”
Lin Mei hurriedly said: "Grandma is unwell, it is important to lie down to recuperate." She raised her eyes and was surprised, although Grandma Gu was sick, but her body was still in good spirits before, and she was like a sallow and dying face now, and only a handful of bones were left in her withered and thin body.
It's coming, it's coming, and finally seeing the most distressed grandson marrying a daughter-in-law, Grandma Gu smiled with satisfaction: "Okay, good, you two have to ...... well"
Grandma Gu had just drunk the medicine, couldn't say a few words, and after coughing a few times, she fell asleep again in a dazed state, and everyone retreated lightly.
"Two months ago, Grandma Gu was fine, what kind of illness did she have this time?" Lin Mei asked in a melancholy voice with a gloomy expression.
Min Shi looked melancholy and said, "Lang Zhong said that it was wind cold." ”
Guo Zhangshi smiled bitterly: "Time is not forgiving, birth, old age, sickness and death, everyone will have such a day." ”
Lin Mei bowed her head and was silent, and after a while, she smiled and comforted a few words, quite a bit of the Luo family's daughter-in-law.
The recognition ceremony is very simple, there are not many members of the Luo family, and they are all familiar faces, Lin Mei only needs to salute and serve tea, hold the shoes and socks prepared in advance, as well as the purse of the gold coin and three or four jade ornaments.
In the next two days, in Luo's house, Lin Mei found that Guo Zhang's family not only loved to find their own accidents, but also on the side, they were okay, they could sew clothes and cook, make soup and stew, and their two daughters also learned to be very regular.
Lin Mei, who originally wanted to show her performance, was also used by Min's mother-in-law on the grounds that there was no size for three days of marriage. was kicked out of the main courtyard, but she herself stayed by Grandma Gu's side all day long, and she didn't go out easily if she had nothing to do, let alone pick the thorn of the new daughter-in-law.
What Lin Mei can do is to stay in the house and tidy up the dowry box, and pack the gift box for Luo Sicheng.
It is about the harmony of yin and yang, Luo Sicheng feels that the sky is very good on this day, the whole house is full of birds and flowers, heaven and earth are harmonious, and the corners of his mouth are smiling all day, just thinking about finishing things quickly and returning to the house; Even if it can't be, as long as the two of them are in the same room, it's good.
In the early morning of the third day of the wedding, Luo Sicheng looked at Lin Mei worriedly on the side, looking at her wilting head and drooping head, quite distressed, and gradually regretted it, today I want to return to the door three times, and I shouldn't have been like Meng Lang last night.
Lin Mei lay on the table with a sore body, shaking her wrist and holding the porridge bowl, and she couldn't help but cry in her heart - he shouldn't have seen the books in the cage last night, and he shouldn't have been obedient and cooperative.
The couple got off at the gate of the Lin Mansion, and the sisters Lin Tao and Lin Xi greeted them at the door.
After getting out of the car and seeing the ceremony, the group of mermaids walked to the house, but there were more than a dozen cages in the courtyard of the front hall, and there were still red ribbons hanging on them, if I remember correctly, this was a dowry gift from the Liu family.
Why are you still at home?! Lin Mei pondered.
Lin Mei secretly glanced at Luo Sicheng, who had a normal complexion, and was indifferently calm, as if she hadn't seen anything, but she seemed a little weak-hearted.
The two of them entered the main courtyard and saw that Father Lin was sitting in the hall, and he knelt and kowtowed to the two of them with a smile.
Father Lin looked at Luo Sicheng with a smile and said politely: "My plums didn't cause trouble to the house, right?" ”
Luo Sicheng's answer was very good: "Sister Mei is polite and sensible, gentle and obedient, and the old and young in the family love her very much." ”
Lin Mei lowered her head and rolled her eyes, privately thinking that she had been in the room the most in the past two days, and she had very few times to behave, and I don't know how he could see that the old and young in the family loved it very much? !
"Seeing that the two of you have finally achieved positive results, I am relieved to be my father." Father Lin stroked his beard and smiled at Luo Sicheng: "It's time for you to take office, and it's time to pack up and go on the road." No matter where you take office in the future, you have to take care of this child Meizi. ”
"Daddy...... I'm not going to go with him this time. Lin Mei hurriedly explained: "Grandma Gu is sick, Sicheng is not at ease, and I am not at ease, in case ...... Although Grandma Gu is now a member of the Guo family, she has little impact on Luo Sicheng's career, but after all, she is a grandmother, and I stay for Sicheng to do my filial piety. ”
Father Lin pondered for a moment and said: "Your husband and wife have just become married, if they are separated for a long time, it will inevitably give birth to suspicions, and there are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is the greatest, you will only cause gossip if you stay in Luoyang, and when you are not a husband and wife." I look at my in-laws' grandmother, where is Guo Xiaodi's family to take care of, Guo Xiaodi has the best face on weekdays, and it is not the turn of the Luo family's grandchildren to shake the pot and hold the sails, you still go with you, so Sicheng will also be taken care of. Besides, as for me, if there is something really going on with my grandmother, I will take care of you two. ”
Lin Mei understands Daddy Lin's plan, the Luo family has finally come out of a jinshi, and the career is legitimate, although the ancient etiquette is based on the clan, but the Guo Luo family has a blood relationship, and they help each other together, as long as Luo Sicheng's career is smooth, he will be blessed and shared. So no matter whether the Luo family or the Guo family will never let Luo Sicheng be held back, the Guo family must take the initiative to take the lead in the aftermath of Grandma Gu, after all, where is the ancestral genealogy, and then there is the Min family following the advance of filial piety, even if Luo Sicheng is not in the house, no one can make a mistake.
Although Father Lin said this to Lin Mei, his eyes looked at Luo Sicheng, Luo Sicheng's heart was clear, and after a moment of silence, he said: "Father-in-law is extremely worried. I just took office, the affairs must be cumbersome, and then listen to the uncle, grandma must be sent back to Yangshu Village for burial after her death, where the old house also needs someone to handle it, I originally wanted to take the time to deal with it, if there is Sister Mei by my side, I will take care of it for me. ”
To tell the truth, Luo Sicheng has been a "monk" for so many years, and he really wants him to return to his former life, and he is reluctant to give up.
Father Lin wanted this sentence, and after hearing this, his expression became more amiable, and he said a lot more with Luo Sicheng.
Lin Mei was dragged by her sisters to feast in the inner hall, Lin Tao stared at Lin Mei with a pair of eyes, but she was dressed in a red silk woven wide-sleeved skirt, combed with a sky-high wishful bun, a simple magnolia hairpin, low-key and luxurious, and the whole person was very popular, so she was satisfied with this marriage.
Lin Mei looked at her like a little old lady looking at people, pointed to her forehead, and asked, "Have you seen enough, tell me what happened to the dowry in the hospital?"
