Chapter 287: Clearing the Barriers
Wang Xin is going to the government tomorrow, and he can't come to see him off, and Erni can't come when she is sick, so he will give the gift first. Mr. and Mrs. Xia Laohan and Mr. and Mrs. Xia Si, Mr. and Mrs. Xia Tie and Mr. and Mrs. Xiong Bao each had a piece of silk, as well as some food bought in the shop.
He did it on purpose.
Xia Tie and Xiao Yang's faces were flushed with anger, the gifts of their parents and brothers were actually the same as those of their relatives...... But seeing Xia Laohan's warning eyes, he didn't dare to speak.
Seeing off the Xia family and the others, the Xia Zhu family finally calmed down.
The two courtyards of the Zhao family were also opened, and there was not much work, and they were completed in two days. Now, the two courtyards have finally become one.
The Zhao family invited a guest, Ye Feng, Xia Shan, Wang Xin, Cai Jiangzong, Xia Zhu and several Changfeng in the army, and those who had daughters-in-law also invited daughters-in-law.
Xia, now known as Mrs. Zhao, entertained her ladies wholeheartedly.
Xia had been a big girl in Houmen before, she knew books and etiquette, spoke properly, and had a temperament better than many people's wives. The ladies and wives who looked down on her, a country widow, were impressed and did not dare to despise her anymore. Xia also began to move around with the wives of the generals in the army, sometimes with a few children.
Although Xia Li is a drag oil bottle, he has a good color, and now he has a good stepfather, and there are more people who come to kiss him, Zhao Liang and Xia both found excuses to refuse. There are more people who say goodbye to Dani than before, and the conditions of some families are really good, so Xia Zhu and the Li family are not sure which one to choose.
On March 20, someone from Hanjiang Mansion came to say that Ye Laoguo was suddenly seriously ill, and Ye Feng was so frightened that he hurriedly went to Hanzhong Mansion. The old man is no longer awake, and there is no medicine stone. Ye Feng couldn't, so he had to go to the Gulan Temple to offer incense and ask the Buddha for his blessing......
At the end of March 29, Ye Feng rushed back to Xiangshan Mansion City. He came with him, as well as the chief soldier Lord Lu and the provincial governor of the province to punish the punishment and press the rub envoy to press the rub envoy Zeng.
At the beginning of this year, Zeng Lin had been promoted from the deputy envoy of the Department of Punishment and Rubbing to the Envoy of Rubbing, and he was a third-grade envoy. At the same time, the emperor also issued a holy decree for Liu Changzhao and Zeng Qingqing to marry.
Zhao Liang returned home early, and his eyes narrowed into a slit with joy.
Xia Shi and Xia Li were sitting under the porch and watching a few children circle around the tree like bears.
Xia stepped forward and smiled, "Why did the master go down in advance?" ”
Zhao Liang glanced at Xia Li and smiled at Xia, "Hurry up and prepare, there will be a distinguished guest at home tomorrow......"
Xia smiled and asked, "Who?" ”
Zhao Liang asked Zhao Niuniu to lead her two younger brothers to play in the yard, and he beckoned Xia and Xia Li into the main house. said, "General Lu of the provincial capital, according to the rubbing, Lord Zeng will come to our house tomorrow to talk about family affairs for Lord Ye and Lili." Lord Lu represents the Ye family, and Lord Zeng represents our family. ”
Xia was overjoyed, she had been looking forward to this day. Put your hands together and say, "Amitabha, this matter is finally settled." And he said, "So fast, why didn't you give us any news in advance?" ”
Zhao Liang said, "Lao Guogong was seriously ill, Lord Ye went to the Gulan Temple to offer incense and pray for blessings, and Master Yuhui, who was still there, made an exception and calculated a hexagram for Lord Ye. said that if he finds a girl who belongs to the rat and lives in the east, he will marry in the Year of the Tiger and marry in the Year of the Dragon, and he will definitely be able to prosper the family. Master Ye thought that since he could prosper the family, he would be able to cure his husband's illness...... Lili happens to be a rat and lives to the east of Lord Ye. He rubbed his hands together and smiled, "Lord Ye specially invited Master Zeng to support our family, because he put Lili in his heart, and he was afraid that she would be wronged a little." ”
Although Zhao Liang didn't know in detail, he also guessed that this was a drama played by Ye Feng and the old man. Before, he had been thinking about what Ye Feng would do to marry Xia Lizheng, a famous matchmaker from a humble background, and let his family accept her. It's a good idea, and no one can say anything. However, it is really not easy to convince the old man to cooperate with him......
Xia Li lowered his head and twisted the handkerchief, pretending to be embarrassed. This is the method that the ancestors of the Ye family came up with, and they told her before.
The old man was so sick that he couldn't send people back to Beijing all the way to let other children marry Chongxi's daughter-in-law, so he had to be nearby. not only forced Ye Feng's mother and grandmother to agree to the marriage and could not raise objections, but also made an excuse for Ye Feng, who had never wanted to marry, to suddenly marry, and also made this marriage of great disparity logical. After all, Ye Feng was born in a high-ranking family, and he was excellent, so it was unreasonable to marry a stepdaughter from a five-rank petty official. Moreover, it can be regarded as saving face for the Queen Mother, and he doesn't want to marry this daughter-in-law, so he has to marry it for filial piety.
Zhao Liang said again, "Hurry up and prepare, don't slack off your guests, and handle the matter of leaving smoothly." ”
Thinking that Ye Feng would call his father-in-law in the future, Zhao Liang was so beautiful.
Tomorrow they will only come to meet, they will not eat, they only need to prepare tea, and then put out all the good ornaments at home, and try to decorate them as rich and festive as possible.
The main courtyard was so busy that people turned over on their backs, and Xia Li pretended to be shy and went back to his room.
Ye Feng cleared all obstacles and came to ask her for a kiss.
Her heart was overflowing with sweetness, and she sat on the beauty couch and looked out the window. The spring light outside the window is just right, and the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant.
She suddenly thought of her past life...... It was also such a beautiful afternoon, she was in class, and Ye Feng came to pick her up at school.
The two got into the car, Ye Feng looked at her with pity and said, "Lili, in the future, I will be your brother and your relative." No matter when or what difficulties you face, you have me, and you will always ......"
When he told the news of her father's death with difficulty, Xia Li fell into his arms and cried in the dark...... Accompanied by Ye Feng, Xia Li gradually walked out of the pain, and since then he has been "dependent on each other".
At first, he was her dependent brother, and after the age of sixteen, she began to have a crush on him until he died...... After so many years and two lifetimes, they are finally going to get married......
Xia Li smiled, tears overflowing in his eyes.
Several children ran through the moon gate with a slump, and Xia He shouted loudly, "Eldest sister, eldest sister, is Brother Ye really going to be a brother-in-law?" ”
Xia Li wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and walked out of the house and said, "The voice is quieter, others will laugh when they hear it." ”
Xia Ju covered his mouth and laughed, "I like Brother Ye as a brother-in-law." ”
Xia He and Zhao Niuniu followed, "I like it too." ”
As she was talking, Dani ran in and asked, "Lord Ye is going to be a divorced son-in-law?" ”
She went home and passed by the backyard wall of Zhao's house and heard Xia He's loud voice.
Xia Li glanced at Xia He and said, "Look, the voice is so loud, everyone else hears it." ”
Xia He laughed embarrassedly.
Xia came over and whispered to Dani about the situation. He also told her that the matter was not decided yet, so don't talk about it yet.
After dinner, Xia Zhu's family and Xia Shan came, and their excitement was no less than that of the Zhao family.
The next day, all the masters and subordinates of the Zhao family were wearing new clothes, and the two dogs and one bear did not go to training, they were combed smoothly, and the bears were also wearing floral clothes. Lord Lu and Master Zeng said that they wanted to see them.
