Chapter 346: The Theory of Wives and Concubines
A farce delayed the business, and after settling the Liu family, Xue Li agreed to come back tomorrow.
According to Liu Yuanwai's thoughts, in fact, there is no need to be so troublesome, the son-in-law is famous, and he is so courteous, he has no choice, you will take the silver ring away today. lest the night be long and dreamy, and cause trouble in vain.
But Xue Li said that the ceremony could not be abolished, and his father-in-law came to preside over it, and the two families had to see each other.
The next day, Song Guogong Xiao Yu ran again, this time Liu Yuanwai opened the door and personally stood at the entrance of the street to greet him, and even the Longmen County Order acted as Xiao Yu's guide, and the pomp and circumstance can be said to be the only one in the county.
In the living room of the Liu family, the guests and hosts of the two sides sat down, and the Longmen County Commander sat at the bottom.
Xiao Yu: "The old man is two years older, so let's call Brother Liu Xian." ”
"Don't dare, don't dare, Liu Yuan is a grass people, and Xiangye is high." Liu Yuanwai hurriedly got up.
"Where, there are no officials here. Today is for the children's affairs, only to talk about family affection, don't be divided. Xiao Yu is very easy-going, "Brother Liu Xian, the dog Xue Li, the word is benevolent." Back then, it was you and Xue Li's biological father, Xue Liangxian, who made a marriage contract for two children together. ”
"I never thought that Brother Xue Railxian was sick, and that was the situation in Xue Li's family, Xiao Yu, as Xue Li's father-in-law, came to the door on behalf of Brother Xue Railxian today, fulfilled the agreement of the year, picked up Ling Yan, and let them get married. What does the virtuous brother think? ”
Liu Yuanwai recalled the year and sighed: "I think back then, when Xue Xian's nephew was two years old, my inner son was pregnant, and I was friendly with Xue Liangxian's brother, so I decided on this family business. Later, Brother Xue was unlucky, originally I wanted to take Xue Li's child to the family, but unfortunately I couldn't do it, and then I heard that others were lost, and I also went to Brother Xue's grave to worship. ”
"Wow, my friend's orphan is now an adult, and the young man has made great contributions, Brother Xue Rail, you can look at it."
"Thank you Brother Xiao for trekking, my Liu family has no opinion on this marriage, everything is arranged by Brother Xiao."
As he spoke, he turned his head and ordered, "Come, tell Madame, please come out." ”
Xiao Yu nodded, and then explained, "There is still something to explain to Brother Xian. At the beginning, Xue Li went out of the mountain and went to the territory of Liang Shidu to make contributions, and originally wanted to destroy Liang Shidu and dedicate it to the Tang Dynasty, but later saw that Liang and the Turks were friendly, so he turned to borrow the Liang State to consume the Turks. ”
"In this way, you can only hide the secret development of Liang Guo, but I don't think that this child is a civil and military scholar who is favored by Liang Shidu and marries his daughter to him."
Forced by the situation, Xue Li could only reluctantly marry Liang Shidu's daughter and become the concubine of Liang Guo. This ......"
Hearing this, Liu Yuanwai hurriedly waved his hand and said: "It's okay, a man's husband, when you make a contribution, you will inevitably encounter some twists and turns." ”
Xiao Yu explained: "Brother Liu Xian misunderstood. Now, Liang Guo has returned to the Tang Dynasty, Xue Li can't abandon the princess of Liang Guo who is marrying Ming Media, right? National affairs have nothing to do with my daughter. What's more, the two have already given birth to a daughter. So ......"
Liu Yuanwai's face changed, and he got up and asked, "What does Brother Xiao mean by this?" Could it be that the little girl is small? Brother Xiao, although my Liu family is not a big family, they only have a few acres of thin fields in this small Longmen County. But it's also a serious person. I have raised the little girl for more than ten years, and I ordered a baby kiss with Brother Xue Liangxian back then, firstly, I wanted the two families to continue to get along, and secondly, I also wanted my daughter to have a good home in the future. ”
"This doll, if Xue Li has the sincerity to marry, our Liu family will make a promise. But if you want my daughter to be small, it is absolutely impossible. We are not as noble as the princess of the Liang Kingdom, but we also have our own backbone. ”
Xiao Yu waited quietly for him to finish, got up with a smile and grabbed his arm and explained, "I misunderstood Brother Liu Xian." According to the rules, Xue Li and Ling Yan have a marriage contract first, so before the two of them get married, whoever the family arranges for him to marry is considered a concubine, only Ling Yan is Xue Li's wife, we still understand this etiquette. ”
The reason why Zai Xia opened his mouth was to ask for a favor for the woman of the Liang family. Not to mention her identity, just to say that she married Xue Li at an unknowing, took care of the child wholeheartedly, and gave birth to a daughter. ”
"So, can you discuss with Brother Liu Xian, as well as Ling Yan, to give the Liang family woman the identity of a flat wife?"
"But don't worry, Xiao is here to assure you that when Ling Yan passes through the door, she is definitely a wife, and Xue Li does not dare to treat her in the slightest, if Ling Yan suffers the slightest grievance on our side, Xiao personally arrests Xue Li to make amends to the Liu family."
Foreign Minister Liu breathed a sigh of relief, I see.
Turning his head to look at Xue Li, "Virtuous nephew, is this what you mean?" ”
Xue Li stood up and saluted and said, "Uncle Liu, forgive me, the woman of the Liang family has been with me for three years, at first I was unwilling, but how can people be ruthless?" As the years go by, there are naturally feelings. ”
"Taking the Liang State and returning it to the Tang Dynasty is a state affair, if the state affairs are over, I will abandon others and take them as a tool for things, Xue Li can't do such a thing. Therefore, I can only come to ask Uncle Liu for understanding. ”
At this moment, a woman wearing a hijab ran out of the back hall, "I do." Daddy, you can't blame the Xue family brother for this. Don't say that you can let your family be a flat wife, even if you are a wife. After all, she is a princess, if she hadn't married someone, the Xue family's brother might have been very dangerous in the Liang Kingdom. ”
Xue Li nodded to Liu Yinhuan movingly, and the other party hid behind his father shyly.
Liu Yuanwai laughed and said: "Silly boy, is it an unreasonable person to be a father? ”
Turning his head to Xiao Yu, he said, "Brother Xiao is too worried, this matter is a trivial matter, Xue Li can think like this, doesn't it mean that he is affectionate and righteous?" With such a son-in-law, I have nothing to worry about. As for the wife and the wife, don't treat the little girl lightly, and we won't have any opinions. ”
The misunderstanding was solved, everyone was happy, Xiao Yu praised Liu Yuanwai's generosity, Liu Yuanwai praised Xiao Yu's meticulous and thoughtful, and the two sides had a good business blow.
Since Xiao Yu was going to take Xue Li back to Chang'an for marriage, a local family banquet was held under the arrangement of the Liu family on this day. Basically, all the heads and faces in Longmen County came.
After eating, and taking the two newcomers to worship Xue Li's parents again, Xiao Yu and the others set off.
The girl of the Liu family said goodbye to her parents with tears in her eyes, and Xue Li also looked back with a lot of emotion, this place where she was once born may not come back for many years.
During the whole process, the people of the Xue clan in Hedong did not show up, and they were busy dealing with Xue Lun and others in Jiangzhou. According to the clan law, they did not say that they really killed Xue Li's uncle and cousin, but only removed these people from the family tree. Then he withdrew all the family's funding and sent the gang back.
Rao is like this, and Xue Lun was also scared of a serious illness. Since then, their reputation in Longmen County has been stinky, and everyone knows that they are Xue Li's relatives, but no one dares to get involved with them, for fear of causing trouble.
Because they couldn't stand the white eyes and criticism of the local people, within a few years, the families moved away, not knowing where to live.
Xiaojiazhuang outside Chang'an City, the New Year is about to begin, it seems that the festive atmosphere of the world is full, and the New Year's flavor of Xiaojiazhuang is more sufficient.
A handsome young man riding a white horse inquired all the way and looked for Xiaojiazhuang. Before he could get close to Zhuangzi Shili, all his identity information had already been investigated. The instructions above are two words - release!
