Chapter 7: Greeting the Three Princes
The steps of the three of them about to leave were stopped by Fan Jin, "Mrs. Lin, I'm afraid this is inappropriate, even if you are in a hurry, it is not as fast as the third prince will arrive in Liyang City tomorrow, is it possible that you still have to tell him in front of the third prince that Xi'er is your daughter-in-law?" ”
"Tomorrow?"
"The Holy Lord asks for the marriage to be completed as soon as possible, so we won't worry about the affairs of the Jiang family, Mrs. Lin!" Fan Jin moved away to make way for Meng Yingcheng, "Zhichun, send Mrs. Lin and Gongzi Lin away." ”
The footsteps of the three of them froze in place, and the silent answer at this moment already showed that the marriage had reached the point of no return.
"Mrs. Lin, Mr. Lin, please two of you!"
Lin Jinchao was still a little reluctant to look at Jiang Lanxi, and Meng Yingcheng tugged at the corner of his clothes to signal that it was time for him to let go.
Only Jiang Lanxi and Fan Jin were left in the hall, Fan Jin sat back on the main seat again and said with disdain: "Don't struggle, just your little bit of caution is what I experienced in the early years, you still get married obediently, so as to protect the Jiang family and your father's safe return." ”
Jiang Lanxi raised her eyes and said unwillingly: "Mother, you and your father have three daughters, why did you choose me?" You also grew up watching me, so you really don't have any affection for me? ”
"This marriage is the love between you and me!" Fan Jin's face was expressionless, his expression was indifferent, "I have handed in your name, so you can't escape the marriage, unless you have any ability to go through the sky, otherwise you will welcome the third prince at home!" ”
Jiang Lanxi was once again imprisoned in the bedroom and guarded by two servants, and even the sleeve silver did not have the right to leave the house at will, and the two of them were like being in a tiger's den, and it was impossible to escape.
"Miss, what should I do now? Are you really going to marry a disabled prince? ”
Jiang Lanxi was not flustered at the moment, as if accepting the reality, but as if she was unyielding to fate, she just looked at the box of peach cakes on the table that had not yet moved, and said lightly: "Sleeve silver, do you know why I asked you to buy this peach cake?" ”
"It's Miss, you said that you can ask Lin Gongzi for help when you go to the house in the north of the city, but now even Lin Gongzi can't help us!"
Jiang Lanxi shook her head slightly, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly, "That's just one of them, this box of peach cakes in front of me is my last way to escape." ”
Sleeve Silver tilted her head and looked at Jiang Lanxi puzzled, "What does Miss mean, Sleeve Silver doesn't understand!" ”
"Do you remember what happens when I eat walnuts?"
Sleeve Silver immediately replied nervously: "Miss, you forgot that you are allergic to walnuts, you will have red spots on your face when you eat walnuts, and sometimes you will be out of breath, that time the old lady saved you for seven days before it got a little better." ”
"That's the way?"
"Method?"
"Yes, everyone in the house doesn't know what I look like I'm allergic to, so I plan to take advantage of the peach crisp allergy, and then uncover it in front of the three princes tomorrow, a woman like me who has a strange disease and an ugly face will naturally be disliked by them, and this marriage will naturally fall on other sisters."
After hearing this, Sleeve Silver still looked worried, "However, after all, this endangers Miss's life......"
Jiang Lanxi's hand gently patted the door of Sleeve Yin's head, "Have you forgotten what I have done for so many years?" I'm the only disciple of Lan Wuxu, the god doctor of the rivers and lakes, how can I lose my grandfather's face, I'll grasp the degree, let it go! ”
Sleeve Silver wanted to say something, but Jiang Lanxi had already picked up the peach crisp and put it in her mouth and bit it gently, the aroma of walnuts instantly filled the tip of her tongue, and this taste of love and hate made Jiang Lanxi still feel a little nostalgic.
The sun was shining, the trees were shading, Jiang Lanxi was uncomfortable and almost didn't sleep all night, and finally stayed up until dawn to dress up early, quietly waiting for the arrival of the third prince.
Fan Jin was busy inside and out, and Liyang Chengkou also arranged for the reception, and after everything was ready, Fan Jin and all the ladies in the house stood at the door respectfully waiting to greet him.
Jiang Lanxi covered half of her face with a scarf, revealing only a pair of stunning peach blossom eyes, Fan Jin only thought that she was concerned about the rule that men and women could not see each other before getting married, so she didn't pay much attention to the other half of Jiang Lanxi's face.
Jiang Lanying, who was standing beside Jiang Lanxi, quipped: "The eldest sister is really blessed, she is going to marry a half-disabled person, and the younger sister has to thank the eldest sister for sacrificing herself to fulfill the righteousness of the Jiang family." ”
Listening to Jiang Lanying's yin and yang weird tone, Fan Jin explained to her the whole story of this marriage, otherwise she would not be standing aside so peacefully today and making a lively appearance.
The corners of Jiang Lanxi's mouth under Jiang Lanxi's face rose slightly, "My sister said this a little early, it is estimated that the Jiang family will have to thank my sister well!" ”
Jiang Lanxi's voice sounded vague, completely different from her usual light voice, but Jiang Lanying only felt that she had cried all night because of her marriage, and she only felt more proud in her heart.
Two or three carriages slowly drove from a distance, and the father-in-law immediately reminded everyone of his dignified attitude, and then stepped forward and said respectfully: "The slave greets the third prince." ”
