At the end of November, it was already very cold, but the people of Shifang Village did not hide at home to avoid the cold, but stood at the head of the village in twos and threes, talking about this important event, Cao Sanyang's house came from Lu's cry again, and everyone was so frightened that they hurriedly shrank their necks and scattered.

"Golden Egg, is your mother crying again?" The little friend asked with concern.

Jin Dan wiped his nose and nodded: "I don't dare to stay at home, you come with me to the mountains to play with my sister, my sister baked bread, but it is delicious." ”

When it came to eating, the children were very interested, and no longer asked them questions that the children did not understand, and ran up the hill with the golden eggs.

The mountain is full of pale yellow, today's weather is not good, the little whirlwind is passing among the thin saplings, Lindsay Yu in a white silk jacket is painting white ash on the tree, carrying a small wooden bucket, her face is stained with a little ash, Widow Wu is learning from her on the other side, looking up at her face from time to time.

"Big sister, go back and rest." Widow Wu said carefully.

Lin Saiyu just smiled and said, "You go back, I'll do it for a while, and it'll be over today, and tomorrow I'll go and bring some swill, and the pig will run out of food." ”

Widow Wu looked at her for a long time, wanted to say something comforting, but didn't know what to say, and muttered, "Eldest sister, don't be sad. ”

Lin Saiyu raised her head and smiled when she heard this, and said, "I'm not sad......" This is far-fetched after all, Widow Wu couldn't bear to look at it anymore, and hurriedly turned back, but saw a person walking down the mountain, brocade clothes flying, hurried, and hurriedly shouted: "The big official is here!" ”

Lin Saiyu was stunned when she heard this, and watched the man gradually get closer, and stopped when he took a few steps in front of him, because Mrs. Su scolded them for all the disasters caused by meeting before marriage, so since the case was closed, they have not seen each other again, it has been more than ten days, he has lost a lot of weight, his eye sockets are deep, and he has obviously not slept for a long time.

"I'll be gone in a few days." Su Jinnan said slowly, unable to hide the sadness in his eyes, his eyes were entangled on the woman's face, as if he was greedy like a farewell.

Lin Saiyu held back her tears, was silent, and her hand carrying the keg trembled slightly.

"My mother is looking for you again, right? Don't listen to her, even if you want to, I won't agree, don't worry, even if you are old, I will support you, don't be afraid, I will grow old with you. Seeing the reluctance and despair in the woman's eyes, Su Jinnan stretched out her hand and gently straightened her wind-blown head.

"Don't be afraid, I can feed myself! I'm afraid that I will have to raise you then! Lindsay Yu grinned, but tears fell down her eyes.

Widow Wu on the side burst into tears when she saw it, turned around and walked away, whimpering in her mouth: "God, you have done evil!" ”

Looking at the woman's tears, Su Jinnan stretched out his hand to gently help her wipe them away, and the two of them watched silently, only the mountain wind was whistling in their ears, and they didn't hear his voice, I don't know how long they stood there, and a noisy footstep came down the mountain, which dispersed the concentration of the two.

I saw seven or eight maids and servants hugging Mrs. Su and struggling to climb the mountain, seeing that they were all shouting about the big official, the big lady, Su Jinnan's face changed, he distanced himself from Lin Saiyu, walked towards the old woman Su, and said: "Mother, do you have to harm the big lady here?" ”

Before she finished speaking, she saw Mrs. Su gasping and stopping, and said, "No, no, hurry, take the eldest lady down the mountain......" No matter how strong her body is, she is finally an old man, and she can't speak after walking for half a day, but fortunately, the housekeeper next to her said: "Quick, big official, take the holy decree!" And the big lady! Hurry up, everyone has arrived. ”

Lin Saiyu was stunned for a moment, her hand had been held by Su Jinnan, she was stunned by the sentence of receiving the holy decree, and said with a wry smile Is this time a good thing or a bad thing? The oncoming wind mixed with snow particles hit her face, Lin Saiyu couldn't help shrinking her neck, looking at Su Jinnan, who was holding her hand tightly and walking in front of her, she couldn't help but smile and wipe away her tears.

As soon as I walked down the mountain to the entrance of the village, I saw a large group of officials and family members rushing over from Hulala, most of whom were unfamiliar faces, except for the Cheng'an County Order.

"Oh, big lady, we'll see you again!" A strange voice sounded violently, making Lin Saiyu stunned, raised her head, and couldn't help but feel dizzy, could it be that she crossed again? Isn't this person in front of him the eunuch who summoned him into the palace to see the Queen Mother? Today, he is still wearing the same red python coat and three-mountain hat, still with a smile on his face, and he can't help but cover his chest and want to gasp for air.

"Flowers!" Su Jinnan noticed her strangeness and hurriedly whispered.

"Big lady, don't you recognize our family?" Eunuch Zhang said with a smile, but saw a trace of sadness flashing on the woman's face, he, who was mixed in the palace, immediately understood what was going on, and said with a smile, "The eldest lady is in good spirits today!" We won't recognize it! ”

Lin Saiyu came back to his senses, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute: "My lord praised it!" She couldn't remember the eunuch's last name.

"Oh, don't talk about it, our family is in a hurry, and we still missed the good day of the eldest lady!" Eunuch Zhang said with a smile, while showing the holy decree in his hand, "Jiangning Mansion Su Clan and son Su Jinnan take the decree." ”

The incense case had already been prepared, and Old Madam Su immediately took Su Jinnan and Lin Saiyu to kneel down at the entrance of the village, and listened to the eunuch Zhang say slowly: "...... You are industrious, so you pass the place, solve the hardships of the small people, be humble and peaceful, and do things that benefit the people, I investigate and understand, and I feel the queen mother's thoughts, wives, heirlooms, and the weight of sacrifices, Cheng'an Cao's family is a slave because of poverty, not a traitor, and many good deeds, benefiting all the people, and being promoted to the daughter-in-law of the Su family......"

In fact, this is the case, it is a coincidence, the emperor has been feeling uneasy since he received Wang Anshi's letter, and heard that the Empress Dowager Cao's condition was aggravated, so he went to visit, looking at the uncertain eyes of the imperial doctors and the caution when taking medicine, his heart was even more depressed and sad, at this time the Empress Dowager Cao woke up, and saw the emperor's appearance and comforted.

After saying some words, Empress Dowager Cao suddenly changed her words and said, "I heard that the Cao family is not allowed to be a wife?" Now that you have found a good family, you can only be a concubine? ”

The emperor was busy talking about the reason, seeing that the Empress Dowager Cao frowned, he couldn't help but feel even more sad, the Empress Dowager Cao was silent for a moment, and then said: "The official family, the mourning family has not asked you for anything, even if you want to use Wang Anshi, who changed the method of the ancestors, the mourning family did not force you not to use it, but this is one thing, the mourning family must you agree." ”

The emperor was stunned, he already knew what the Empress Dowager Cao was going to say, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised, the Empress Dowager Cao was so interested in the woman she had only met once and had been rewarded and punished? hurriedly agreed, what the Empress Dowager Cao asked for was this, and the emperor had already moved his mind, so he naturally responded at this time.

"Niangniang, why are you so interested in that Cao family?" The Emperor couldn't help but ask his curiosity.

Empress Dowager Cao smiled slightly, but there was a bit of bitterness in this smile, sighed, and said: "The mourning family was impulsive, ruined the marriage of the Cao family, and also harmed the Liu family." ”

Said the emperor was even more confused, Empress Dowager Cao patted his hand, the reason to say, it turned out to be a coincidence, the emperor's second sister Shu Guochang Princess heard that the Empress Dowager Cao was not in good health, so she entered the palace to see, this princess is also a hobby Guan Pu, in a meeting of women in the house, and that Song Yulou pounced a few handfuls, as a result, the princess was not lucky that day, and lost more miserably, it stands to reason that Guan Po won or lost according to the destiny of heaven, should not complain about people, the princess is not good at fighting, happy to win, unwilling to admit if she loses, and it is more coincidental that Song Yulou has recently lost a few games, and her hands are tight, also forgot to take care of the princess's face, and she was not polite, the princess was naturally in a bad mood if she lost.

There was a young woman dressed as a woman on the side, and said something with a smile, what is this Song Yulou is the most treacherous, abusing her mother-in-law at home, and interacting with a man with a family outside, the princess is very comfortable, no wonder she loses, this woman turned out to be cheating! So I kept it in my heart and went to the palace to talk to the Queen Mother, and told the anecdote.

Empress Dowager Cao didn't like such a person the most, so she asked who it was, when she heard that it was Song Yulou who made Cao was divorced and married into the door, Empress Dowager Cao almost couldn't get up in one breath, she was careful this time, and told the palace people to go out to inquire to see if the situation was true, the palace people inquired for a few days, and nothing else was confirmed, but Liu was indeed sick at home, and what Song Yulou said at the beginning was also confirmed, and Empress Dowager Cao was sick this time and did not touch the light of this matter!

"Damn! There is such a wicked woman, didn't she say that she was docile and virtuous? How to behave like this! Come on, pass on Liu Yanzhang to see you! The emperor's face changed angrily, and he stood up and shouted.

Empress Dowager Cao stopped, sighed and said: "Official, as the saying goes, it is difficult for a clean official to decide family affairs, if it is not a mourning family, then why is the Liu family here?" Official, don't be impatient. ”

The emperor sighed, pressed the matter for the time being, and passed down the holy decree, saying that it was to compensate the Cao family, but in fact, it was to find comfort for himself.

Lin Saiyu didn't know these things, and only understood the last sentence in the clouds, and he was still a little confused, so he saw that Mrs. Su and Su Jinnan had already knocked on the order to thank her, and they were also busy knocking down, Eunuch Zhang ordered someone to help them up, and said with a smile: "Congratulations to the big official, congratulations to Mrs. Saying that, the little attendant behind him held a tray and put a piece of jade, and said: "Our family is poor, and we have a little courtesy, and I hope that the big officials and their wives will laugh." ”

Su Jinnan was so panicked that he hurriedly took it and thanked him, the words of the holy decree had been spread, I don't know who set off the cannons, and after a while, the entire Shifang Village resounded in a row, and under the call of Steward Su, a song of the Empress Dowager Xie and Emperor Xie and the Empress Dowager Shengming sounded, which made this eunuch happy.

On the third day of the lunar month, more joy was added to the New Year's flavor of Shifang Village, Lu's family, who was dressed in a red golden robe, stood in the center of the courtyard with his waist crossed, commanding the hanging flower cloth lamps to set up tables and chairs, and the people who brushed the pots and washed the dishes and vegetables in the yard walked around, and a load of meat and vegetables was carried to the backyard, and the horse-drawn carriage sent out 6 continued to come back, and the relatives who came down, regardless of distance, were wearing new clothes, with a look of fear and envy on their faces, and they cowered into the gate of Liu's house. Full of thirteen dowries, some of the timid ones softened, and were pulled into the guest room, holding the window, and saw the picks keep coming in, with a red lacquered wooden box tied with red ribbons, with these picks, the brightest merchant in Shifang Village will shout: "Guanshi County Lord Yin and his wife send the eldest lady a gift, eight horses of silk and satin, six boxes of jade ornaments...... "Cheng'an County ......", "Beijing Sinong Temple Lord Wu ......", "Beijing Old Servant A Yuan ......", "Lord Shilang ......", "Jiangning Banshan Old ......"... … The sound was incessant, through the noisy front yard and in the middle of the hall, all the way to the backyard.

Lindsay Yu, who was dressed in a bright red new dress, sat in front of the mirror, several brides were combing her hair, reading greetings, because she kept hearing the shouts in the front yard, and unconsciously smacked, and suddenly saw the bride who had put on makeup slid down a line of tears, and was so frightened that she hurriedly wiped it with a handkerchief.

"Eldest sister, such a pomp, we have never seen a bride in our lives......" Lady Xi Niang picked up the words, carefully comforted, and carefully covered her tears with powder, "Eldest sister, I will cry when I leave home, don't cry now." ”

Lin Saiyu smiled, shook her somewhat sour neck, and said, "I didn't expect these Elixirs...... I'm happy. As he spoke, his eyes were sour, and he could hear the gongs and drums outside, and he knew that it was the troupe invited by the Lu family to start singing.

Since this wedding alarmed the imperial court, coupled with the reward of the Queen Mother, Cheng'an County was bent on pleasing him, and the Su family was bent on making up for the previous fright, and the Lu family breathed a sigh of relief, and it was not to spend their own money, so they could go badly.

The Su family's welcoming team followed by two sets of suona teams, and there were more than a dozen servants who scattered the money and candy, and walked twice along Cheng'an County, and the artillery battles rang non-stop on the way, so that the ears of the people watching the ceremony were deafened, and the people who watched the ceremony were deafened.

The Su family's house in Lao'er Village is newly decorated inside and out, the sound of artillery battles outside the door is shocking, coupled with the endless congratulatory gift procession, only attracting people from all neighboring villages to see, relatives and friends who are constantly coming and going are brightly dressed and generous, according to Mrs. Su's original meaning, this marriage will be held in Jiangning in the future, but after this incident, Mrs. Su summoned all her relatives from all walks of life in Jiangning in order to get angry, and it was done in Cheng'an!

The relatives of the Su family rushed away, some of them came after sleepless nights, including many officials, the Su family chartered a restaurant, which was specially used to entertain visitors from afar, the well-informed Cheng'an County Order, and even the governor of the Daimyo Mansion looked at it with a smashing tongue, it turned out that the Su family was so rich!

In front of the hall, Su Jinnan stood side by side, Mrs. Su smiled and picked up her hijab with a machine, so that everyone could straighten it again, Lindsay Yu couldn't help but laugh, this time the ceremony was much more complicated, under the guidance of the master of ceremonies, one by one to visit the ancestors of the Su family and the relatives who crowded a room, after the ceremony, the competition jade felt that her waist was about to break, and then routinely held the concentric knot, and dragged Su Jinnan back to the room with a smile on his face.

"Be content, it's already good, or you'll be more tired." Su Jinnan saw her tiredness, and laughed in a low voice, which made Lin Saiyu laugh too, it turned out that the ecstatic Old Lady Su had planned to let them go around the city three times, so frightened that Su Jinnan and Lin Saiyu hurriedly said good things to dispel her idea.

"Okay, you're tired today, so I'll go again after meeting Jiang Ning." Mrs. Su said with a smile, making the faces of the relatives present look like ashes.

When I arrived in the room, it was another hot spot, scattering tents, buns, acacia wine, picking flowers, untying the green buttons, throwing a wine glass, and finally only this couple was left in the cave room.

"Mom, I'm tired!" Lin Saiyu sat on the bed for a while, as soon as the words fell, there was one more person beside him, listening to Su Jinnan's clear smile, he suddenly became nervous again, next, do you want a cave room?
