Chapter 15: Memories of the Past (11)

In the early morning of the next day, most of the guests left after breakfast.

Lin Zongbian and the others should have been like this, but now that Mu Beiting's marriage was a major event, Lin Zongbian began to think of an excuse to delay Pan Huan, in order to let Mu Beiting and Xun Daier get along for more time.

After some contemplation, he finally had an idea in his heart, and then he formally made a request to Xun Yue to bother in Xun Mansion for a few more days on the grounds that he wanted to write a "History of the Evolution of Silk Craft".

To be able to get the master of the "Ten Thousand Book Tower" to personally write a book for the silk line, Xun Yue was naturally overjoyed, and immediately agreed.

Of course, except for Mu Beiting, the rest of the brothers in the alliance said goodbye and dispersed. Xun Yue knew the meaning of Lin Mu and the others, so when he saw Mu Beiting leaving to accompany him, he didn't think much about anything else.

Since then, in order to create an opportunity for Mu Beiting to meet Xun Daier alone, Lin Zongbian has been pestering Xun Yue and his wife to ask questions every day, except for eating and sleeping, and the rest of the time is called "Collecting writing materials".

A few days ago, Xun Yue and his wife explained in detail with great interest, but later, the topic of silk textile was already speechless, and their interest slowly declined.

Lin Zongbian saw that this topic had dried up, so he shifted the topic to the garden landscape. It's a pity that although Xun Yue and his wife live in Gusu, they are not knowledgeable and have weak appreciation ability. More often than not, Lin Zongbian was talking, and the couple were listening, and under such a toss, they also earned an extra seven or eight days.

During this period, Mu Beiting used the excuse of going out every day, or visiting friends, or visiting famous scenery, but no matter what kind of excuse, in the end, he went out from the door, climbed over the wall, and the person he saw was always Xun Daier.

After a few days, the two of them got to know each other better, and they both had a heart of seeing each other late, and their feelings became closer and closer, like glue, but Lin Zongbian's hard work was not in vain.

On the other hand, in order to be able to become his eldest brother's lifelong happiness, Lin Zongbian not only helped him delay time, but also tried his best to attack Xun Yue and his wife.

He speaks wisely, and all topics must be led by him, and when he talks about Xun Dai's children a few times, he recommends Mu Beiting to Xun Yue and his wife with words that are like a breeze blowing willows.

However, Xun Yue's attitude has always been obscure, often talking about him left and right, and does not talk about it, while Mrs. Xun looks at her husband with the head of the horse, and does not show the slightest trace.

Lin Zongbian looked at his face and knew that Xun Yue was most likely dissatisfied with his eldest brother, and he was afraid that his words would be too wrong, but he would arouse the suspicion of Xun Yue and his wife, so he didn't mention it again.

As the saying goes: "If you walk by the river for a long time, how can you not get your shoes wet." ”

Mu Beiting and Xun Daier's underground love affair was finally broken by others.

On that day, a servant of the Xun family was pruning flowers and branches in the garden, but accidentally bumped into Mu Beiting and Xun Dai'er who were having a tryst.

Originally, with the strength of Mu Beiting's internal strength, there was a person within five zhang of Mo Shuo, that is, there was a rabbit, and he could also perceive it clearly. It's just that at that time, his mind was all focused on Xun Dai'er beside him, so his alertness inevitably decreased greatly, so that he didn't know it when he was being spied on.

When the servant got such heavy news, he naturally didn't dare to delay, so he immediately ran away and hurriedly reported to Xun Yue.

When he heard the news, Xun Yue was drinking tea, he held the teacup that had been brought to his lips for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, he was instantly furious, and immediately smashed the teacup in his hand to the ground, and told the servant to shut up and keep it secret, and then found his wife's room to inform him of the incident.

Mrs. Xun looked at her angry husband, and couldn't help but laugh for a while, and persuaded: "The love of men and women is a matter that comes into being, in the past, you were worried about your daughter's marriage all day long, but now that your daughter has met true love, why do you have to put on a horizontal eyebrow and stare at it?"

Xun Yue snorted heavily, and said disdainfully: "Where am I worried that my daughter can't find her husband's family, what I'm worried about is that my daughter can't find a good husband's family!

Mrs. Xun glanced at her husband and said with a smile: "In my opinion, this Mu Beiting is very good! I have heard that this person is extremely decent, chivalrous, and has a high martial arts, and he also has a high status in the rivers and lakes, and is very admired and loved by the world. By the way, didn't he help you out of the siege again and again at the banquet that night?"

Xun Yue said angrily: "What kind of rivers and lakes do you want your daughter to follow a martial artist who has no fixed place to live a life of exile? What is the use of having strong martial arts? In today's peaceful and prosperous world, it is only right that you can find a stable and wealthy husband to live!"

When he said this, his heart became more and more angry, and he unconsciously raised his voice and said: "You said that the siege was lifted? Hmph! In retrospect, I am afraid that all of this was a conspiracy they had planned in advance, a conspiracy to try to get close to Dale!"

Looking at her husband who was emotional and outrageous, Mrs. Xun immediately persuaded gently: "You don't have to speculate and make assumptions, our Dai'er was raised in the deep boudoir, even if the two of them have feelings for each other, it must be after they met at the dinner that day." ”

Xun Yue glared at his wife, and said fiercely: "Lin Zongbian entangled the two of us every day on the grounds of collecting materials, so that Mu Beiting had the opportunity to get close to Dai'er, what do you say this is not a conspiracy?

Mrs. Xun said worriedly: "You don't want to offend Lin Zongbian, this person is both an official and a chivalrous name, no matter which one he is in, he is a pivotal figure." Besides, he has collected so much material that he may not be able to write a book, and I have heard that his writing is also excellent..."

Xun Yue snorted coldly again, although he was angry in his heart and complained frequently in his mouth, but if he really tore his skin with Lin Zongbian, he wouldn't dare.

Mrs. Xun saw that her husband's anger had decreased slightly, and then continued: "The characters we looked for in the past, Dai'er didn't even look at them. In my opinion, I'm afraid that she has real feelings this time... Well, in fact, I really think this Mu Beiting is quite good..."

Before she could finish speaking, Xun Yue immediately interrupted: "She is in charge of the marriage matter, this Mu Beiting is absolutely unacceptable, I have made up my mind, you don't have to say more." ”

Seeing that her husband was so resolute, Mrs. Xun also knew that it was useless to say more, so she had to advise: "You are so strong and arbitrary, don't hurt Dai'er." ”

Xun Yue said: "I'm afraid it's inevitable to hurt her heart this time, but after a long time, she will naturally understand my good intentions." ”

Mrs. Xun wanted to say something more, but her lips closed for a long time, and she finally held back, only turning into a long sigh.

Xun Yue ignored his wife's reaction, and after bowing his head and thinking for a moment, he muttered: "Even if it's a send-off, you can't lose your courtesy..."

Mrs. Xun couldn't hear what he said for a while, so she asked, "What did you say?"

Xun Yue raised his head suddenly and said, "You go and tell the kitchen to cook a few more dishes for dinner, and we will see him off today." ”

Mrs. Xun was shocked and hesitated: "This... You're going to chase customers?"

Xun Yue did not deny it, but said: "I have my own words at that time, you don't have to worry." ”

Mrs. Xun hesitated: "I'm afraid it's not good to do this, or..."

Xun Yue waved his hand and interrupted: "This matter is not discussed, just do it according to my wishes, you go down and arrange it!"

Mrs. Xun hesitated and wanted to persuade again, but when she raised her eyes, her husband's resolute eyes made her dispel her thoughts. She had to obey her husband's order, slowly got up and went out the door, and went down to make arrangements.
