Chapter 289 Marriage 1
After the spring outing, news spread that Shen Zhan was going north with the Black Banner Army. Ye Lingwu was trapped in the Jinghe Hall because of a leg injury, and she was receiving the instructions from Mother Xuan every day before she left the pavilion. She didn't know about it until the day of the wedding banquet.

Outside the flower window is the courtyard full of spring scenery. Ye Lingwu pushed open the windows on all sides of the main house of Jinghe Hall one by one, and the spring breeze slowly entered the house. Mrs. Shen took a breath and said with a smile: "The wound on your leg It’s all over so soon? Why don’t you take a good rest in the house. "

Ye Lingwu said: "It's been a long time ago. If I continue to lie on the bed, I will go crazy before the wedding banquet. The old lady should not drive me away."

Old Mrs. Shen said bluntly: "You are just tired. Do you keep in mind what Mother Xuan said to you these days?"

Ye Lingwu nodded, and replied, "It's all in mind."

The old lady Shen said with satisfaction: "Just remember, the Jiang family is not an ordinary family. After you enter the door, you must abide by the rules everywhere, and treat your parents-in-law carefully. I met that old lady of the Jiang family for a while at the engagement banquet. Gentle and kind, I think it will not be difficult for you to be a daughter-in-law, even if they are not in the capital in the future, you still have to send greetings from time to time."

"Understood, old lady." Ye Lingwu listened to the training patiently, then knelt down in front of the tea table, opened the new tea brought by Cheng's family at the engagement banquet, moved the teapot full of water to the stove, and started making tea.

Old Madam Shen looked at the tea bucket with the Cheng family's totem engraved on it, and said, "Since we know about your engagement banquet, they must be on their way back to Beijing."

Ye Lingwu raised her lips and smiled: "Yes, I think the third girl is the happiest, after all, after the second brother left, the third girl was sad for a long time."

Old Mrs. Shen's face was downcast, and she replied: "Will she be sad? The child only has herself in her heart. Now she is married to the Pei family, that is the Pei family, and has nothing to do with the Ningbei Houfu."

Ye Lingwu pursed her lips tightly, and said nonuo: "But old lady, no matter how you say it, the third girl is still the third lady of the Hou Mansion, and even more so your own granddaughter."

The old lady Shen said with a cold face: "When she shamed the Ningbeihou Mansion and her parents, she never thought that she was a girl from the Ningbeihou Mansion. She was spoiled since she was a child, since she likes Pei so much Huai, then let her suffer enough to understand the importance of her parents' fate."

Ye Lingwu was silent, she knew how old Mrs. Shen behaved, and knew that no matter how much she tried to persuade her at this moment, it would be useless, so she simply said nothing.

After a while, the fragrance of tea filled the air. Ye Lingwu got up and brought the prepared tea to Old Madam Shen. Second Uncle is going to resign from his official position in the court and take up the post of magistrate of Fu County?"

"Your second uncle thinks that his official position in the court is too idle. It happened that the county magistrate of Fu County resigned last month because of greed for money, so your second uncle asked His Majesty for a job. It's ridiculous to say this." Mrs. Shen Sad way.

Ye Lingwu smiled and said, "Why is that ridiculous? I really envy Second Aunt."

Old Mrs. Shen frowned, took a sip of hot tea, and asked, "Why?"

Ye Lingwu said: "Second uncle and second aunt are still loving after being together for more than ten years. Second aunt is depressed and depressed. Second uncle can apply for a job as a small county magistrate in Fu county without hesitation. Outsiders may think that second uncle Confused, but Ling Wu believes that the second uncle must be a good parent officer."

Old Mrs. Shen rolled her eyes and smiled: "You are becoming more and more able to talk, so it's very good, so I can feel more at ease when I marry the old lady of the Jiang family."

Ye Lingwu lowered her head with a smirk.

On the night when Shen Ci and Cheng Guyuan returned home, Qin Mingyu held a banquet in Haitang Zhai himself.

Originally, he wanted to hold a family banquet, but when Qin Mingyu thought that the second-bedroom couple would go to Fu County, the unfilial son Shen Zhan led the Black Banner Army to the north, and the unfilial daughter Shen Pan'er married into the Pei family. Divide into five pieces.

She hastily pulled out a thin cotton handkerchief from her sleeve, picked up a corner and carefully wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and spat: "A bunch of heartless people. Especially Wan Zhou, who left my mother alone in the capital."

Mother Fu saw Qin Mingyu crying sadly, and comforted her: "Mistress, don't be sad. It's not bad for Lord Hou to resign from the position of Zhu Kingdom. His Majesty's health has become worse and worse over the years. The court seems to be calm but undercurrents are surging. Mistress But go to the palace and talk to the queen more, if Lord Hou really resigns from the position of the Zhu Kingdom, you can also retreat to the northern border with Lord Hou, away from the disputes in the court."

Qin Mingyu stopped crying, and said in thought: "Your Majesty, how can you easily let the boat go to the northern border? How is doing so different from making the crown prince the heir apparent?"

Fu's mother said: "His Royal Highness has done a lot for the court these years, and he is very popular among the people. Sooner or later, he will be the crown prince. It is difficult for the queen to speak. The mistress just gave the queen a step. Your Highness succeeds to the throne, and you are also a hero."

Qin Mingyu slowly raised his eyes to look at Fu's mother, and said, "What you said is reasonable, but if the crown prince fails to succeed in the future..."

"Mistress, don't worry, even if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince fails to succeed to the throne, with the presence of Lord Hou, others will not be able to do anything for you."

Qin Mingyu's eyes deepened.

In a blink of an eye, the feast came.

Originally, I was worried that the banquet would be deserted, but at the banquet, the few members of the Guanfeng Mission learned the bad habits from nowhere.

Old Mrs. Shen, who doesn't like to be lively, happily drank half a jar of wine, and didn't go back to the Jinghe Hall to rest until she was slightly tipsy.

Ye Lingwu was also quite happy in her heart, but she ate a few more in a daze, her cheeks were burning red and her head was dizzy.

She propped her head up and looked at the laughing young man in red on the opposite seat, with mixed feelings.

——The tired, coquettish and rebellious young man in memory seems to have changed a lot, but fortunately his smile is still bright and hot.

The room was too dull, and Ye Lingwu didn't stay long before letting Rongxiu help her out of the room to get some air.

In the cool night, the master and the servant walked along the small path of Haitang Zhai. After walking for a long time, a female voice suddenly came from behind.

"Sister Lingwu."

Ye Lingwu froze and turned to look.

A gust of wind immediately blew towards the face, bringing the aroma of fruit wine. With the help of the moonlight, Ye Lingwu could see who was coming.

"... Sister Guyuan?" Ye Lingwu said in a small voice.

Cheng Guyuan had a smile on her face: "Long time no see, you didn't make it to the engagement party that day, I hope sister Lingwu is not to blame."

Ye Lingwu said bluntly: "Sister Gu Yuan was joking, it's the best of wishes for you to rush back to Beijing."

Cheng Guyuan's smile gradually faded, and she sighed, "I'm ashamed to say that we only found out about sister Pan'er's wedding banquet after the fact. I heard that she was married to the son of a wealthy businessman in the capital. Jing Yan was very angry when she heard about it. I don't know if I'm angry that the news came too late, or because I'm looking forward to my younger sister's marriage."

Ye Lingwu lowered her eyes.

Unexpectedly, about Shen Pan'er's marriage, the second uncle and second aunt actually told Shen Ci and the others later. It seems that the second aunt really hated this marriage with the Pei family.
