Chapter 238: Brainstorming
Old Madam Lu was taken aback and glared at Wen Yi in disbelief.
Wen Yi's face flushed slightly, but she didn't look away, her eyes became more and more determined: "Just do it, what have grandmothers and I been worried about for the past two days?" I was worried that after Brother Liu went on the expedition, there was no master at home to take care of him, so he asked the third aunt's family to take advantage of it, and I was worried that after Brother Liu left, if there was a good one, King Kang would force me to marry another. At present, Brother Liu has not left yet, so it is better to take advantage of the few days left to get married quickly. The granddaughter got married, and she was able to take care of Brother Liu's family, and she was not afraid that the prince of Nakang would dare to be delusional anymore The granddaughter believed that with Brother Liu's skills, she would definitely be able to return safely, but she was worried that someone would secretly calculate. As long as the granddaughter breaks off the person's thoughts, Brother Liu doesn't have to worry about someone stabbing her in the back when she is facing the enemy" She looked at her grandmother with a bit of pleading in her eyes: "Grandmother, granddaughter knows that this is too hasty, but in addition, what other way can it be done once and for all?" β
Old Madam Lu let out a long breath, thought for a while, and sighed: "I just said that it is a pity that I did not enter Beijing with you, and I will complete the marriage for you early, not that the eastward journey is imminent, and the time is too short to prepare for the wedding, but that it means...... If you had been married early in the morning, then the prince of Kang would not have done so many things behind his back, and he might not have to go to war when he traveled eastward. I regretted the mistake of that day...... In fact, although my body is weak, compared to your uncle and grandmother, it is not so bad, she can survive smoothly to the capital, why can't I? As for those children, they are not as important as you...... It's just a few complaints from my old woman about herself, and she doesn't want to marry you off quickly. She patted the back of Wen Yi's hand and said earnestly: "Grandmother is only your granddaughter, who has been raised so much since she was a child, and she has thought about it countless times, what will you be like when you get married...... If it weren't for the procrastination of Changfang's behavior and insincerity, I wouldn't have left the things that the family had prepared for you a long time ago, and only went to Beijing with a soft to marry you. But Rao is like this, the work in the past few days has been really too hasty, where can I prepare properly? If you don't take care of everything at your wedding, won't your grandmother regret it for the rest of your life? β
Wen Yi's heart was slightly sour, she held back the tears that overflowed her eyes, fell into Mrs. Lu's arms, and choked up: "Why did my granddaughter want to leave her grandmother so early...... It's just that the prince of Nakang is too pressing, and the prince is on his side...... The crown prince is the prince of the country, and now the emperor is not in good health, and most of the political affairs are handed over to the prince. The granddaughter is just a weak girl, although the long house is a high-ranking official, but it is unreliable, and Brother Liu has only obtained the martial arts position from the fifth grade, if the prince of Nakang is repeatedly forced to force each other, how can we stop it? The granddaughter would rather die than marry such a treacherous person, and besides, the granddaughter and Brother Liu already have a marriage contract, how can she be treacherous? Under the measure, as long as I can live peacefully with Brother Liu for the rest of my life in the future, the moment of the wedding day, my granddaughter will not care about it......"
Old Madam Lu frowned, and she was hesitant in her heart. The granddaughter's idea is also reasonable, and she also hopes that her granddaughter and grandson-in-law will be able to be harmonious and beautiful and peaceful in the future. It's just that if the granddaughter gets married at this time, in case Liu Dongxing has a good ...... Isn't there even a room for manoeuvre? Do you want your granddaughter to be like yourself, a young widow? I still have a son, but my granddaughter ...... In the past few days, I don't know if I can give birth to an heir
She looked at Wen Yi and her heart wavered.
Wen Yi looked at her, somewhat understood her concerns, and said with a miserable smile: "Grandmother, granddaughter said shamelessly...... If Brother Liu died, his granddaughter would not marry someone else...... got married early, and his granddaughter is still his person, otherwise...... Isn't it for nothing that he bears a name, but is not even one of his people? β
Old Madam Lu's eyes turned red when she heard this: "There are only grandmothers and you in this house, why do you want to read those rules and etiquette?" β
Wen Yi shook her head: "It's not for the sake of etiquette, this is the true words of my granddaughter...... Does grandmother remember that dream of her granddaughter? His granddaughter was destined to marry him, and he and I were originally a long-cherished marriage. The granddaughter ...... in her heart It's just him, and if he were someone else, he wouldn't be happy in this life......"
Mrs. Lu's eyes were hot, she closed her eyes, and said after a while: "That's it...... That's it......" She took two deep breaths, and her face softened: "In your dream, he came back safely, and later he was promoted, and if you want to come to this expedition, he will also return safely...... It is necessary to do it early and late, and it should be done earlier...... also got a matter on my grandmother's mind. β
Wen Yi saw that although her expression was indifferent, there was a hint of Qi between her eyebrows, and she couldn't help but feel a great pain in her heart, knowing that this decision would make her grandmother sad, but she was just ...... She really didn't want to put it off any longer.
As Li Chunxi said, she had too many worries about her marriage, first of all, she was worried about the number of etiquette and the affection of the clan, and she didn't dare to urge Changfang to set a wedding for herself as soon as possible; then worried that the time was too hasty, and he didn't think that he could actually marry Liu Dongxing in advance; Then he was worried that the prince of Kang would rely on the power of the crown prince, so he thought of asking for help from the crown princess Du Yuanru; And now, I have to worry about whether the crown princess will be implicated by herself and blamed by the prince, and choose to find another place to live in seclusion......
In fact, all these concerns are not worth mentioning at all. She will care about the face of the long house and the affection of the clan, but few people in the long house care; The time to prepare for the wedding is too short, but everything can be simple; As long as he marries, he doesn't have to deliberately avoid the prince of King Kang, and naturally he won't involve Du Yuanru, and the prince will not marry a married woman to his cousins. All it takes is a wedding and all the problems will be solved. What else is she hesitating here?
It is because of her repeated hesitation that she will be taken advantage of
Wen Yi looked up at Mrs. Lu and reluctantly squeezed out a smile: "Grandmother doesn't have to worry, the wedding only needs to ensure that the three books and six ceremonies are complete, everything is simple, and the granddaughter doesn't care." When ...... arrived," her face turned red again, "After Brother Liu went on the expedition, the second brother also got the official and was about to take office, and the granddaughter took her grandmother over to live with her." Didn't you say that you would have to stay in the capital for a few more months? When Brother Liu comes back safely, let us also do our filial piety in front of you. β
Old Madam Lu stroked her hair gently, sighed, and straightened up, with a solemn expression: "Okay, since we have decided to do the marriage, let's hurry up and come up with a charter, this is not a few days." How sooner or later will it take for the eastward journey to return from the camp? β
Wen Yi stood up, thought for a while, and said, "Send a letter to your godmother's house and invite her back." Her nephew, Brother Luo, is a close friend with Brother Liu, if there is anything, Brother Luo knows, and Brother Liu will know. The Luo family firm has always had a wide range of roads, maybe there is a way to help us prepare everything."
Old Madam Lu immediately nodded: "That's it." I also brought the silver, one thousand taels for the marriage is enough, and the rest of the silver tickets will be pressed to the bottom of the box for you. Marriage can be simple, but the marriage can not be ambiguous, we don't want the scenery on the outside, but the inside must be rich enough. Don't persuade me......" When she saw Wen Yi opening her mouth to speak, she stopped one step ahead, "I can't watch you get married, my grandmother is already remorseful, don't fight with me about other things." I don't have to worry about food and clothing in my hometown, as for your seventeenth brother, he still has clan property, which is enough for him to eat and wear for the rest of his life."
Wen Yi opened her mouth, but closed it. How much to marry, it depends on the grandmother's meaning, if her old man and younger brother live a tight life in the future, will she still stand by and watch?
The matter was settled, and Mrs. Lu hurriedly sent someone to invite Mrs. Luo Si and Mrs. Li back, and asked people to send letters to Nie Heng and Luo Mingmin. Mrs. Luo Si was the first to laugh and said: "The old lady is really resolute, I got the news before the child and I got home, but this is a happy event, even if the time is rushed, it must be done thoroughly." β
Mrs. Li glanced at Wen Yi and sighed secretly, but she still had a smile on her face: "It's okay like this, the marriage of the nine girls has been delayed again and again, and it will be done early, and it will save you a lot of dreams at night." It's just that the Liu family doesn't know what to do, does the eldest son of the Liu family know? β
Nie Heng's eyes only stared at Luo Mingmin: "Does he know?" Don't know yet, right? "My face is a little unpleasant.
Luo Mingmin touched his nose and answered his question: "He doesn't know it now, but he will know tomorrow." The imperial court set the five armies to start in early April, and the fourth day of the new year will be assembled, and from the beginning of the new year, the soldiers will go home to reunite with their relatives for three days. Yesterday, the incident reached the camp, and Dongxing had already asked for leave, and he would return to the city in advance tomorrow to deal with household chores, which was specially approved by the military department. He did a good job in the camp, and he was appreciated by his superiors, if he wanted to ask for a few days off to get married, it would not be difficult to come, even in the army, there would only be good words, and maybe he could invite a few famous generals to come and support the scene. β
Wen Yi was sure when she heard this, so she lowered her head and stood aside quietly, without speaking.
Old Madam Lu opened her mouth for her: "That's easy to do." If you want to come to the east, you won't object? Now it is difficult to use all the family and everything that is needed for the wedding, and they have not been purchased completely, I don't know what can be done, as long as there is no lack of etiquette, it is not okay to be rough. β
Mrs. Luo Si said: "The shopkeeper of our shop has always been a capable person, do you think he can do this?" She turned to Luo Mingmin, "I remember some time ago, whose family wanted to marry their daughter, but they had to postpone it?" Those things for marriage are not even needed for a while. β
Luo Mingmin said: "It is a nephew of Lu Changcheng of Jingzhao Mansion, because he wants to marry his two daughters in a month, the family is too busy, so he can only concentrate on preparing for the marriage of the eldest daughter, and the marriage of the concubine is handed over to our firm." It was done, but an elder in his daughter-in-law's family was gone, and the marriage would be delayed until a year later. After a year, many things will have to be repurchased again, so it is better to use them first. Now those things are placed in the warehouse, from the sedan chair to the bucket of children and grandchildren, etc., are complete, that is, the things ordered by others, and the marriage has twists and turns, which is a little unlucky. β
Wen Yi thought to herself, if there are twists and turns in the marriage, who can compare with herself? I don't know who is more unlucky.
She meditated here, and the old lady Lu had already spoken: "Regarding the twists and turns in the marriage, our nine girls will not lose to her, and the things are not used, as long as the things are good, it doesn't matter if they are ordered by others, I am afraid that his family will ask for it again." β
Luo Mingmin said with a smile: "Everything is good, our family's business house is the first time to do a happy event for the official family, and the shopkeeper is very attentive, but it's a pity that his family is picky about the things we do for the concubine are too valuable, not only do they refuse to pay the final payment, but they even have to get the money back." In this case, we simply responded to him, and just gave the things to Gu Jiu's sister" and winked at Wen Yi: "It's a coincidence, because the person who is going to marry his concubine also happens to be an official, although it is only a seventh grade, but the things prepared by the business bank are just right for the occasion, but it's a pity that the grade is wrong...... By the way, there is also a set of phoenix crown xia veils missing. He looked a little annoyed, "This is prepared by the Lu family themselves, and that thing can't be driven out in a few days." β
When they heard this, they were a little worried. Wedding etiquette, other things can be done, or borrowed or bought, but the wedding dress is the most important, it must fit, otherwise it will be a joke. In addition, Liu Dongxing is now an official, and when making clothes, he has to consider the issue of rank. At this time, even Wen Liang couldn't help but say: "In the past few days, where can I find Feng Guanxia?" Or...... Tell the long room, the fifth sister must have prepared a set, there are still some days before she gets married, and it's too late to make another set, please borrow her clothes from the ninth sister first, okay? β
Wen Yi smiled bitterly and said, "The fifth sister will never agree...... And this kind of thing...... Whether she refuses to refuse or not, as long as we open our mouths in the sixth room, she can hate me for the rest of her life, so why bother to recruit her? After thinking about it, "I still have a big red sleeved robe, just embroider some auspicious patterns on it, and a few days of hard work are enough." β
Nie Heng suddenly asked: "Brother Liu is now a serious military attache from the fifth grade, I don't know if I can ask the court for a decree?" β
Luo Mingmin slapped his thigh: "Yes, he got an official position that day, so he handed over the fold to ask for an envelope, but he was in a hurry at that time, so he asked me to notify him once I got the letter." It's just that the Ministry of Rites is so busy now, and others are not there, so naturally it is left aside and no one cares, and I am thinking about whether to ask someone to dredge it. When he asked for the seal that day, he made it clear that he had a fiancΓ©e, and if the official clothes were all down, wouldn't he be more glamorous than the wedding clothes if he wore official clothes to marry? β
Mrs. Luo Si said with a smile: "There are big red sleeved robes, with a xia veil, which is not bad, as for the phoenix crown, there are many gold bead shops in Beijing, and there are many people who make these things all year round, find a good craft, just buy it." β
Everyone, you and I, have discussed all the things to be used for the wedding, although they are a little hasty, and the things may be a little rough, but there should be something, and there is no shortage of anything. It's just the same worry: the imperial court doesn't know when it will give Liu Dongxing the official uniform and the xiaxia veil.
Seeing this, Wen Yi's heart moved, and she remembered someone.
