Chapter 9: See You Again
"And what does it mean to postpone the wedding?"
When my grandfather became more and more angry the more I thought about it, my grandmother asked in a low voice.
My grandfather was asked, and he couldn't answer for a while.
Yes, now that the prince has been deposed, it is not good for the Yanguo Mansion, if the Yanguo Mansion wants to minimize its losses, it should rely on the holy decree and try its best to marry Gan Tang back.
No one in the world knows that the third lady of the Xichuan Bian clan spoke very well in front of His Majesty.
Ah, wait.
Grandfather suddenly opened his mouth, and thought of a logical wrong thing, his third daughter-in-law said very much in front of Jinshang, went to two letters, and Jinshang completely stopped giving Gan Tang the intention of marriage, according to the preferential treatment of his third daughter-in-law over the years, there is no reason to go back on his word.
Why did you write the marriage decree later?
Is there something hidden here?
My grandfather carefully recalled the time when Lu Xun came to Xichuan.
When Lu Xun first came to Xichuan, he did not reveal that he was a proclamator sent by the imperial court, and he always asked to see the elders of the Bian family with the courtesy of his juniors.
But during that time, the elders of the Bian family all had a lot of opinions about him because of Lu Xun's discussion of relatives in Yan Long, so even if Lu Xun saw the Bian family, the Bian family who protected the calf was also sneering at him and didn't listen to his explanation at all.
Later, in Shanhua Temple, Lu Xun ran to see Gan Tang, and after separating from Gan Tang, he came to the Bian family with Jing Tiao to plead guilty, and he was beaten very hard.
Moreover, because the elders of the Bian family felt that Lu Xun was too arrogant and rude, and he was a person who beat him under the hall where people came and went, many people saw his embarrassed appearance.
But even though he didn't even have face, Lu Xun was still not angry, and still humbly asked the Bian family not to talk about Gan Tang, and gave him another chance.
Lu Xun's trip to Xichuan can be said to have carried out the beating of Lizheng to the fullest, and later he also got Gantang's understanding, which made Gantang relieved.
Now to push the timeline, in February, Lu Xun was urgently called to leave Xichuan, and he didn't have to hear Gan Tang loosen his mouth with his own ears, but the letter from the Bian family was sent out not long after Lu Xun left Xichuan, and it is possible that Lu Xun knew about it early.
Therefore, there is no need for him to ask for marriage, just wait for Gan Tang to go to Yan Longgan's house, and then go to propose marriage.
The Bian family has a very bright mind, but at this moment, they can't connect what has happened recently in the most reasonable way.
"Go and write another letter to Lao Si and Da Lang, and ask them to figure out what happened to Yan Long first before anything else." With a wave of his hand, my grandfather was about to write a letter.
Gan Tang listened to the discussion of the elders in the family for a long time, and she stood up and said, "Grandpa, grandma, let me go to Yanlong." ”
"Tang'er, you don't have to worry about this matter, you can stay at home with peace of mind, and when this matter is clear, you are talking about other things." My grandfather kept his voice down and was as kind and kind as possible.
"Grandpa, it is a big deal to resist the decree and disrespect, and now Your Majesty has just abolished the prince, we don't know the reason, but Your Majesty will not be in a good mood, if you rashly let the fourth uncle and the eldest cousin submit the petition for resignation to Your Majesty in front of the case, I am afraid that Your Majesty will be angry."
"I watched my grandparents and grandparents during this time, my uncles and aunts were busy for my business, and I also thought a lot, no matter why the Yanguo Mansion wanted to marry me into the door, no matter whether I would eventually enter the Yanguo Mansion as a wife, I am now grown up, and I should also experience some things, and I can't always hide behind my grandparents, uncles and aunts."
"So, grandpa, let me go to Yan Long to find the fourth uncle and eldest cousin. It is said that although I have enshrined my father's eldest brother's super tablet in Shanhua Temple, the Gan family is in Yanlong, my father's eldest brother's clothes and mound, and the spirit card is also in Yanlong, I am about to get married, and I should personally go to the incense and pray, otherwise my father's eldest brother has a spirit in the sky, and it is time to scold me. ”
Gan Tang didn't speak fast, and when she talked about her father and eldest brother who died early, she even smiled, and her posture of looking forward to Shenfei was like a girl who didn't know how to worry.
Grandfather looked at Gan Tang with pity, for many years because the Bian family was stationed in Xichuan, so it was difficult for my grandfather and Gan Tang's mother to see each other, I thought it would be difficult to meet, as long as the other party was well, I didn't want to fly to cause trouble, so that he could once again experience the pain of the white-haired person sending the black-haired person, and then the black-hearted man also wanted to destroy his daughter's only remaining bloodline, and he was even more angry.
My grandfather will always remember how thin and depressed Gan Tang was when he was taken back to Xichuan by the Bian family who went to mourn.
That scene made him feel distressed for many years, so even if Gan Tang could get married, he still wanted to protect Gan Tang under his wings.
It's not that I didn't regret it, I shouldn't have listened to Gan Tang in the first place, and went to Yan Long to inquire about Lu Xun, which led to what happened later, but my grandfather knew that if I did it again, he would still follow Gan Tang's wishes.
"Good boy, our Bian family doesn't know how to write the words in their blood, since you want to practice, grandpa will let you see the world."
Of course, my grandfather was reluctant to let Gan Tong suffer, and he would try his best to let Gan Tong grow up in a safe environment.
In the next few days, my maternal grandparents carefully prepared all the matters for Gan Tang's food, clothing, housing and transportation to Yan Long, and it was not too much to compare it to Gan Tang's dowry.
In addition, the third lady also assigned Gan Tang two kung fu waitresses to serve her closely to protect her safety after going to Yanlong.
The day of leaving Xichuan Shang Yan Long was set on the third day of the seventh month.
On this day, she came out of the barracks to see her off, and the little girl, who had always been optimistic and lively, was still red-eyed when Gantang's convoy was getting farther away.
Gan Tang's mood was not good, she really left Xichuan, her reluctance in her heart reached the peak, and she couldn't cry in the carriage.
Halfway through the trip, her mind gradually broadened.
On this day, the convoy traveled to a town called Fengyang City, because of the bad weather, Gan Tang decided to stay in Fengyang City for one night, and then go on the road tomorrow when the weather is good.
Coincidentally, Gan Tang and the others were about to enter the inn, and it rained heavily in the sky.
Gan Tang's maid was busy hugging Gan Tang into the upper room of the inn.
"Girl, slave has taken out your clothes."
"Girl, drink a bowl of ginger soup to get rid of the cold, so as not to get sick again."
Gan Tang drank ginger soup first, and then changed into clean clothes, "You also drink some ginger soup to resist the cold, and change your wet clothes as soon as possible, don't wait for me when the hot water is delivered, take a bath by yourself, we have to protect ourselves on the way." ”
When going out, the most important thing is to protect your body, Gan Tang caught a cold not long after he went out, and he rested in a nearby town for several days before he was able to continue his journey.
The maids saluted and said yes, and after placing Gantang, they took turns to re-groom and dress up.
In the evening, the inn ran to the hall to bring food to Gantang and them.
Gan Tang sat in the room and didn't come out to see people in person, but she heard the hall say, "I'm sorry sisters, just because tomorrow is our annual Heavenly Doctor Festival in Fengyang City, and the chef of our store was sent by Fengyang Hou to cook medicinal soup. ”
"Heavenly Doctor's Day? But the festival of commemorating the Yellow Emperor and Qi Bo? ”
The inn ran the hall to send food for the inn late to make amends, and said a few more words, I don't want any of Gantang's waitresses to know about the Heavenly Doctor's Day.
This waitress is called Mu Xiang, one of the two maids that Gan Tang's grandparents and third aunt found for her to protect her safety, and the other girl is called Mu Li.
These two girls are both skilled in martial arts and medicine, and they both belong to the hanging of Hui Zhilanxin, so they are very yearning for the Heavenly Doctor Festival that they have only seen in books.
"Two playful little girls, don't want to go to the girl and say that they want to see the excitement tomorrow, although Fengyang City is not far from Yan Long, but it's better to arrive at Yan Long early."
Mu Xiang Mu Li came out of the women's barracks, and the first order she pursued was to unconditionally obey the orders of her superiors.
As soon as Gan Tang's housekeeper spoke, the two of them accepted the look of yearning.
Gan Tang sat in the room and couldn't help laughing, she also wanted to satisfy Mu Xiang and Mu Li, but it was the Mid-Autumn Festival soon, she wanted to go to Yanlong City on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, and go to Qimang Mountain to worship her father and eldest brother, so if the weather was good tomorrow, she would definitely have to hurry.
On the second day, the weather cleared.
After the convoy packed up, the waitresses welcomed Gan Tang down the inn.
When Gan Tang got into the car, he turned back to Mu Xiang Mu Li and said, "Mu Xiang Mu Li, you two can ride horses, if you can catch up with the convoy at noon, I will allow you to go to the venue to have a look." ”
Mu Xiangmu Li was overjoyed, and was busy thanking them for the awkward etiquette that had been urgently trained.
"Girl, you're too much to do with them." Looking at Mu Xiangmu Li's back, the housekeeper said angrily.
Gan Tang smiled slightly, "Mama, I have a few servants from your drunken son by my side, as well as the guards personally selected by my grandfather for me to protect, so let the two of them play." ”
"The girl is sexual." The housekeeper is helpless.
The convoy was driving towards the gate of the city, and Gan Tang took the book given to her and was about to read it, when she suddenly heard Mu Limuxiang's eager voice outside.
Without waiting for Gan Tang to ask, Mu Li Muxiang was full of tacit understanding, and opened his mouth together, "Girl, we have seen the prince of Yanguo." ”
Gan Tang suddenly heard the words of the prince of Yanguo, and almost didn't hold the book.
She came to Yanlong from Xichuan, and what she said to her grandfather was true, but there was one thing she didn't say, that is, she wanted to ask Lu Xun personally why he did these things.
Since the Bian family began to plan her marriage, she and Lu Xun are obviously in love, but there have been so many twists and turns, and her heart is like frying fire every day.
She was moved by Lu Xun's concern for herself for three years, so she boldly said that she was happy that he wanted to marry him, and she was pleasantly surprised that Lu Xun personally went to Xichuan to ask to marry her, so she forgave the oolong incident that caused the incident because of the distance of thousands of miles.
She still had expectations for Lu Xun's character, so she decided to be bold once, cut off all external barriers, and came to Yan Long to ask Lu Xun face-to-face why she married herself in such a hurtful way.
Since Gan Tang had this idea, he would think that after he came to Yan Long, he would say what Lu Xun should say and how to phrase it, so that he could get the answer he wanted.
No, the two of them would see each other so suddenly.
