Chapter 135: Dressing
"Xiyue, it's not good to blame me, I didn't tell you everything, it will cause you uneasy. Jiang Ming stroked Ling Xiyue's hair.
Ling Xiyue is actually very uneasy, she was a carefree young lady a year ago, because she has a goal to strive for, she will change so quickly, but only when she is alone, she will show her weak side.
No matter how strong her heart is, this weakness is innate, and it is the instinct of man to be protected.
And the rapid expansion of Wuhou Mansion has also brought great pressure to Ling Xiyue, Ling Xiyue will often play petty with Jiang Ming in order to transfer the pressure, she knows that no matter how she plays petty, Jiang Ming will tolerate her.
Now that both of them have spoken, any pressure will be much easier after having the other half to share. The amazing thing is that even if both parties share half of the pressure with the other, the pressure on both sides will be much easier and they will have more motivation to face the future.
At the end of March 101 in the martial arts calendar, Jiang Ming and Ling Xiyue held a big wedding.
Weddings are not very grand, people in this era don't like too grand weddings, because the pressure of survival is oppressive in everyone's hearts, even if it is a Void Family, there is no reason to invest too much for a wedding, unless you are ready to turn the wedding into a blood feast.
The people invited to the wedding were all relatives on Ling Xiyue's side, after all, Jiang Ming was alone in this era, and the only friend he made was Yun Xu.
Ling Wenjin's family also sent some people, their relationship with Ling Wenjin is not the same lineage, so they usually don't have much contact, and after Ling Xiyue developed, they didn't deliberately climb relatives, just because they were also more familiar with the cultivation of real martial arts, and when dealing with these people, Jiang Ming has always been very embarrassed, he is really not good at this.
However, although the people of the Ling family are relatively weak, none of them are comparable to Ling Wenjin, but Jiang Ming is still full of respect for them, and they did not give up hope in the darkest era of martial arts, which led to the miracle of Ling Xiyue, Ling Xiyue once wanted to help them, but they also refused. They just took away a copy of the exercise rubbing given to them by Ling Xiyue, saying that they were prepared for danger in times of peace, and they couldn't let the martial arts cut off hope.
They didn't just talk, but really did it, if it wasn't for this wedding, their real whereabouts would be difficult to grasp, they didn't accept material gifts, and there was only one picture: if Ling Xiyue failed, they would take the classics that Ling Xiyue gave them, and they would revive martial arts in the future. If Ling Xiyue succeeded, they would just cut off their family's great future, and they could still afford this price.
From them, Jiang Ming also understood one thing: greatness has nothing to do with strength, only with the realm.
Regardless of Ling Xiyue's success or failure, these honors and disgraces have nothing to do with them, they gave it up themselves, just to give the martial arts one more way.
Jiang Ming did not persuade them to choose, only respect.
Perhaps, it is precisely because of the existence of such people in the human race that the martial arts can keep the fire in the darkest years until the dawn comes.
In Ling Xiyue's boudoir, a woman full of charm is dressing up Ling Xiyue, she is no longer young, but the charm on her face compares many young girls. Ling Xiyue's makeup has always been very repulsive, after all, she is naturally beautiful, what else do you want to dress up for? It's all superfluous, but today is different, even if it can't add luster to her appearance, she can let her sweetheart see her intentions.
Tidying up your makeup is a sign of respect for your sweetheart.
"Shizuki, how nice it would be if you were my daughter. The middle-aged woman carefully looked at Ling Xiyue in the mirror, and did not hide her affection.
"Mrs. Shui Wu, if you want to be my mother, just marry my father directly, I don't reject this kind of thing, besides, my father has nothing to do all day now, he only knows how to teach children to practice swords, and it would be good if someone could accompany him. Ling Xiyue said.
Mrs. Shui Wu smiled: "I would like to, but your father is the only one in his heart, and he is already full, and he can't tolerate anyone else." However, it's normal for a strange woman like your mother to occupy all of a man's heart!"
The heart is already full...... Ling Xiyue can understand this feeling, after all, her heart is also occupied by one person, but she has been dead for more than ten years, and she can still occupy all of a person's heart, which can only say that her father is a seed of infatuation.
However, looking at her father's lonely appearance every day, she still felt that it was better for him to find a new person.
"Mrs. Shui Mist, you just said that my mother is a strange woman, do you know my mother very well?" Ling Xiyue was a little curious, her mother died at a very early age, she couldn't even remember what her mother looked like, only a small box contained some of her mother's relics, and she lost some because of her playfulness.
Because her mother died too early, she should have cried a long time ago, so she didn't feel too sad when she mentioned this, but she was a little curious about her mother's past.
"She is a very beautiful woman, no one knows where she comes from, but it should be a lady cultivated by a big family! The elegant and pure aura on her body is obvious, like a chess piece cultivated by the Holy Realm family for marriage. Mrs. Mist recalled.
"A chess piece used for marriage?" Ling Xiyue was a little puzzled by this evaluation.
Mrs. Shui Wu smiled: "A man's favorite woman is the kind of lady who is beautiful, and it is best to be proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, because there are many people with exquisite appearances, but there are fewer people with outstanding temperament, and your mother's temperament can only be cultivated by a big family for hundreds of years, such people are the most easily loved by men, and it is the best as a bargaining chip for political marriage." ”
"So, did my mother escape?" Ling Xiyue had already made up a drama in her mind that Miss Qianjin was unwilling to be at the mercy of fate, ran away from the family, and then fell in love with a poor boy in the countryside.
"I can't say this clearly, but your father and your mother are together openly, although they didn't publicize it, but they didn't hide anything, those Saint Realm families have unfathomable methods, and it's still very simple to catch a child who has escaped!" Lady Shui Mist said, "However, considering that the cause of your mother's death was illness and death, and Ling Wenjin had already expected it, maybe your mother had a hidden illness and was given up by the family." ”
Ling Xiyue was a little disappointed in her heart, which was far from the story in her heart. However, she also understands the energy of the Holy Realm family, as long as she spends some money to buy some intelligence from the intelligence organization "Heaven and Earth", then a person's information is easy to find, not to mention that her mother has outstanding appearance and temperament, and she has not yet hidden.
Then, maybe it is really as Mrs. Mist said, she may be of noble birth, but she was given up by the family! Ling Xiyue thought that Mrs. Mist's words were not unreasonable.
"By the way, just temperament, it shouldn't be a strange woman!" Ling Xiyue asked.
Mrs. Shui Mist said with a smile: "Of course not, what is really a strange woman is her wisdom, becoming the city lord of Hengyang City, the plan to develop the blood desert was arranged by your mother when she was alive, and the establishment of the Bishui Pavilion by me was also arranged by her, otherwise although your father has the support of people in the martial arts lineage, it is impossible to complete the transformation of the blood desert so quickly, and ordinary city lords can't even fully control the city lord's mansion in a year!"
"It turns out that the reason why my father is so appealing is also due to you!" Ling Xiyue exclaimed, and then realized that something was wrong.
"Yes, I spread the benefits of the blood desert transformation in advance before your father took office, but there were many bandits, so no one did it, and after your father cleared out the bandits, of course everything was logical. Lady Mist said to herself.
Everything was arranged by my mother, and Misty Canyon recognized me as the master, and my father did not doubt it...... Several things suddenly appeared in Ling Xiyue's mind at the same time, causing Ling Xiyue's face to suddenly turn pale.
"Tide moon, tide moon. Seeing that Xiyue's face was a little unsightly, Mrs. Shui Wu shouted anxiously.
"I'm fine. Ling Xiyue quickly regained her composure, no matter what, today was her big wedding day, and everything else had to be postponed.
