Chapter 116: Marriage Proposal
Lin Yi helped the old lady of the long room to sit down in the inner room, and made a cup of hot tea with her own hands and sent it to the old lady of the long room, "Grandmother, you drink some hot water to stabilize your mind." ”
The old lady of the long room drank half a cup of tea and lay on the soft couch with her eyes closed.
The third wife of the clan knew that the situation was not good, so she stopped asking the old lady of the long house, and withdrew with Linshuang.
After about a stick of incense, the old lady of the long room was able to take this breath.
"It's really too deceitful," the old lady of the long room hit up as long as she thought about the lump of qi in her chest, "It turns out that they are thinking about my Zhuangzi, and that's it......" said and glanced at Lin Yi beside her, "I actually opened my mouth and asked to marry six girls." ”
Lin Yi thought about many possibilities, but she never expected this to be the result.
Mother Bai next to her was also stunned, "Asking to marry Miss Six?" Is that a child of the clan? ”
The old lady of the long room sneered, "It's really self-sufficient, don't say it's just an idle gentleman, even if he is serious and motivated, he has already married the main family in the past, let us six girls be the steproom...... Also delusional. said that he didn't know each other to get married, but in fact, I think it was premeditated. ”
It stands to reason that she and her father only came to Beijing from Fujian, and she has no special reputation, so it is impossible to attract people to ask for relatives casually, and the Lin family came to ask for it because they wanted to use their father, and then there were distant relatives of the Chen family or the Xiao family, and there was a reason.
In order to save people, you can use money, but you can't joke about the life events of the six girls.
The old lady of the long room said: "I have already refused, let them break this idea." ”
The old lady of the long house had never been so angry.
"Our family is a hero of the country's military exploits, and we have also been bullied like this by these idle clans, so you can imagine how the ordinary people will see them. In the past, next to my Zhuangzi was also the field of the idle clansmen, and they would come to my Zhuangzi at every turn to borrow long-term laborers and tenants, and when the year came, as long as the harvest on my Zhuangzi was good, the descendants of those clans would definitely go to my Zhuangzi to eat and take. During the New Year's holidays, Zhuang Tou is most afraid of these people. I put up with all this, who told our family to be greedy for good land in the morning. I didn't expect them to have to inch in now......"
Lin Yi finally knew why the old lady of the long room frowned when she heard the word clan. But now it was not the clan that killed people, but the young master of the Ge family who killed the subordinates of the clan.
In the evening, the old lady of the long house tactfully told the third lady and Linshuang of the whole thing about the result of the whole thing.
Lin Shuang's face turned pale when she heard this. "Huo" stood up suddenly. Walked to the old lady in the long room and knelt down, biting her lip, "Ask the old lady to talk again, as long as they can release the young master of the Ge family, I will ...... I'm willing to marry ......"
The third wife of the clan also stood up when she heard this, "Silly girl, what nonsense are you talking about." ”
Linshuang raised her head with a determined expression. "I mean, really, this is a matter that started with our family, and it would have been solved if it had been done that way. Not only can the young master of the Ge family be released, but our family can also raise its head in Sanhe County. Said with a sad smile, "Otherwise, if we shrink aside, who will dare to associate with our family in the future, if I marry in the past, the worst result will be to be divorced back to my mother's house, is it possible that the brothers in the clan will not be able to support me for the rest of my life?" I...... It's not just a matter of talking...... I really do. ”
The third wife of the clan was full of tears on her face.
The old lady of the long room slapped her palm on the low table, "Nonsense, our Chen family is really being held like this?" Not to mention sending it to the field, it has reached the point of selling sons and daughters......" said and coughed urgently.
Lin Yi hurriedly went to smooth the back of the old lady in the long room.
While everyone was talking, Chen Yunyuan came back from the office and sat on the chair next to the old lady in the long room, "Fortunately, the Ge family and the Chen family have been dealt with, and this case is temporarily pressed in Tongzhou, if the case is finalized and reported to Shuntian, it will be troublesome." ”
Whether it will be finalized or not, now it depends on whether the clan will bite or not.
Linshuang said: "Old lady, while it's still too late, the old lady will come forward again......"
Lin Yi didn't wait for Lin Shuang to finish speaking, and stepped forward to help Lin Shuang up, "Grandmother has other ways, don't worry." ”
The third wife of the clan threw a grateful look at Lin Yi.
Lin Shuang almost bit her lip and bled out, raised her head to look at Lin Yi beggingly, Lin Yi shook her head and pulled Lin Shuang aside to sit down.
Chen Yunyuan said: "I asked someone to go to the Tongzhou Yamen to say it, don't dare to say anything else, our family can always know the situation of this case as soon as possible." ”
The third wife of the clan said, "Then I'll bother Uncle to listen to it." ”
The adults still had something to discuss in the house, Lin Yi pulled Lin Shuang to the room, Lin Shuang looked at Lin Yi, "I don't hide it from my sister if I have something to say, even if I marry me, I won't regret it, now I'm afraid that people won't want to marry me." I knew that the old lady and my sister would be implicated, and my mother and I said that we would not come. ”
Lin Yi shook her head and said: "They have already calculated, if you don't come, grandmother will come forward to help when she hears the news, and ordinary people still ask for it, let alone their own family." "The old lady's Zhuangzi in the long house is something they have been optimistic about early on, and her marriage is also being calculated.
I don't know if the whole thing started on my grandmother and her.
……
Xiao Xiao invited Lang Zhong to adjust the recipe for the old lady of the long room, Lin Yi served the old lady of the long room to eat, and asked Mother Bai to move the incense burner in the house, "Grandmother should not use incense these days, so as not to cough worse." ”
The old lady of the long room nodded, "I'm used to using incense, and I'm not used to removing it for a while." ”
Lin Yi smiled: "Grandmother used to love pickles, but now she hasn't touched them for a few months. ”
Mother Bai was also beside her, "The old lady will listen to Miss Six, it must be true." ”
When Mother Bai and the people in the room retreated, the old lady in the long room sighed, "What do you say about this matter?" ”
Lin Yi lowered her head when she heard this, "Grandmother is also in a dilemma, and I can't think of a result." ”
The old lady of the long room closed her eyes slightly, "You girl is the roundworm in my stomach." You know everything I think. As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to tidy up Lin Yi's sideburns.
Lin Yi said: "Now it is becoming more and more clear that this is a trap that has been dug a long time ago, just waiting for our family to jump, the light one is going to take away my grandmother's Zhuangzi, and the heavy one doesn't know what will be implicated." If it were normal, my grandmother would have kept silent about it, and asked my father to stay away from it in order to protect herself. But now that the clan is implicated, if the trouble is not good, it will be the lives of the young master of the Ge family and Linshuang, and the grandmother can't turn a deaf ear. ”
The old lady of the long room sighed when she heard this, "It's better for people to be confused, and now you understand in your heart that it will be uncomfortable." Your father's official career is now smooth, if our family can be safe and sound, and with the help of the Yuan family and the Zheng family, not to mention anything else, your father can at least become a court official. ”
Even if it weren't for that, I'm afraid it wouldn't be that easy.
"I think about it, our guilty people in the clan ......"
The old lady of the long room didn't speak, and Lin Yi said, "Isn't it the aunt of King Kangjun?" Before, the granddaughter contradicted Mrs. Zhou. Now the second aunt is going to tell the fourth sister to King Kangjun again. ”
Since you are going to get married, you will naturally stand on a rope.
"I have the ability to come to my wife, but now I even count you."
Lin Yi comforted the old lady in the long room, "It's not the same, right now, the eldest uncle and the second uncle are afraid that my grandmother will find me a good family." "It's small to compare Lin Wan and Lin Fang, if you lean on a big tree, the plan of the eldest uncle and the second uncle will be very difficult even if it doesn't fail.
In the eyes of the two uncles, it is best that she can't get married, and even if she does, she has to pave the way for Linwan and Linfang.
The old lady of the long room took Lin Yi's hand, "If you were someone else, you would probably have died of worry about this, you are still happy when you look at it on weekdays, but you understand it in your heart," she said with a long sigh, "Your father just said that this time to reward the meritorious heroes, the emperor will choose a woman from the meritorious heroes to enter the palace to show his gifts," the old lady of the long room said very slowly, "There has been such a practice before." ”
Lin Yi's eyes widened, which means that she is very likely to be selected into the palace.
"After entering the palace, it is the separation of flesh and blood, your father just said, before the will is settled, you must set your marriage, so as not to be caught off guard in the future," the old lady of the long room said, "I originally wanted you to be young, and slowly help you pick a good family affair, but it is too late, so I will ask you, what do you think of the brother of the Qi family?" ”
When I first saw Qi Erlang, I thought he was a calm and upright person, and later after Mrs. Qi Erlang asked for a prescription, she knew his temperament better.
Lin Yi didn't speak, and the old lady of the long room nodded, "It's hard to say anything else with the temperament of the Qi family, I will definitely do my best to protect you if something happens, if not, I won't have any more dealings with the Qi family before you get married." "If Mrs. Qi Er didn't come to Chen's house to apologize, Qi Erlang didn't take medicine, and the old lady of the long room was very satisfied with Qi Erlang for this alone.
When Lin Yi heard this, she only felt that her cheeks were hot.
The old lady of the long house said: "After you get married, I will think about your father's affairs, and your father will also mean this, and he will not use your marriage to climb higher." Wait until the apricot list is released, and it is no surprise that the Qi family will come to the door to propose, and when the time comes, our two families will change the Geng post, and the palace is choosing someone, and you will not be chosen. "Second Mrs. Qi likes Lin Yi more and more, and recently she has frequently said to the old lady of the long room, for fear that after the last time, the old lady of the long house will not agree to this family business.
And now the situation of the Chen family is different from before, Chen Yunyuan has become a member of the Ministry of Ministers and has passed to the long house, even if Qi Erlang is on the apricot list and marries the Qi family, it is not considered a high marriage.
Her business is planned, but what is Linshuang going to do?
Knowing Lin Yi's thoughts, the old lady of the long room said: "People are selfish, if this matter involves you, I will be the first to refuse to ......."
"Grandmother," Lin Yi said softly, "I have a solution, I don't know if it will work." ”
