I do fortune-telling in ancient astrology

Although Grandpa Lin was dissatisfied with Wei Mingji as his grandson-in-law, he still reluctantly gave Wei Mingji 50 taels of silver as a meeting gift, and his grandmother also gave Wei Mingji a string of glass beads on her wrist.

Fortunately, in ancient times, glass beads were rarely worth a few dollars. In modern times, glass is the least valuable thing. Lin Xingwei can buy a dozen of such glass bracelets for 20 yuan.

Wei Mingji came here in a hurry this time, he didn't prepare a gift for everyone, he was a little ashamed and dared not accept it, but Lin Cheng'an said that we are all a family, our grandparents will also be General Wei's grandparents in the future, Wei Mingji accepted it graciously , and kowtowed three times to the old couple.

Mrs. Lin had a sullen face. After all, he didn't say those nasty things in the past. He should have reluctantly accepted Wei Mingji as his grandson-in-law under the education of Mrs. Lin.

Wei Mingji, Lin Tingyu, and Lin Cheng'an drank wine and ate until the time was up, and then left. The three brothers and sisters sent Wei Mingji away.

Lin Cheng'an put one hand on Lin Xingwei's shoulder, and said: "This gentleman misunderstood him before, and thought he was a fierce man. Although drinking and chatting is not as elegant and talkative as Wen's elder brother, he is also bright and cheerful. man of."

Lin Tingyu looked at the back of Wei Mingji riding away on the big horse, and said: "Well, he is hearty, but sometimes when his eyelids sink, I can't help sweating, and he is less gentle, Ran Ran, you will train him more in the future." Teach him to be kinder, so that he can make more friends."

"You actually asked him to be gentle. Didn't the elder cousin forget that he is a military general and governs Shangdu Mansion. Wei Mingji's smiling face to us is already embarrassing him, so don't ask him to be gentle or not." Lin Xingwei asked Lin. Tingyu rolled his eyes.

Lin Cheng'an said: "As an official, you must have some majesty on your body. We still need to learn more from General Wei. But I can see one thing. Wei Mingji frightens the world outside, but inside the tiger turns into a kitten. We slowly got it right."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

"What did the second cousin say!"

Lin Xingwei was ashamed and angry, and wanted to go back to the Marquis' Mansion, Lin Chengan hooked Lin Xingwei's shoulders, and said, "You've done a good calculation for your elder cousin, or you can do it for me too, to see how my luck has been lately, Is it going well?"

Lin Tingyu took a hard look at the two siblings, angrily bumped away Lin Cheng'an and Lin Xingwei, who were clasped shoulder to shoulder, and squeezed through the two without looking back.

"Big cousin, let Ran Ran give you another divination to see if your bad luck is over!" Lin Chengan shouted towards Lin Tingyu.

Lin Cheng'an wentssip and learned that his cousin was also punished by his aunt, so he chased her all the way to ask the reason.

Lin Xingwei was clever, and the topic went back and forth before returning to Lin Tingyu. Lin Chengyu said: "Master Qin complained to His Majesty that his cousin made his daughter bewitched, and his daughter didn't want to eat or drink. Cousin is going to give her daughter an explanation! Your Majesty wants the two families to discuss it, and the Queen Mother will get married after the filial period is over."

Lin Xingwei leaned forward and back with a smile.

The light in the mother's room was still on, so Lin Xingwei tiptoed over and eavesdropped by the window for a while.

Inside, Mrs. He was combing her mother's hair, and there was Mrs. He's voice, "You can't blame the princess for Mr. Wen's affairs. The princess is a girl with no intentions. If you are tricked by Mr. Wen, you won't be wary."

After a long silence, Mrs. Hou said: "Where am I Princess Qi, I am Lord Qi. He was entangled with Wen's daughter before marriage, and I didn't even know it."

"The first time that Wen Lin appeared in Hou's mansion to celebrate father's birthday, I thought he was very similar to Lord Hou. Later, I asked my brother to investigate him secretly and found out his identity. Lord Hou actually lied to me about this. 20 years!"

Lin Xingwei guessed right, she suffered for her father.He helped his aching knee, feeling extremely wronged.

Through the window, Lin Xingwei could hear his mother's long sigh, and said again: "If Master Hou is still alive today, and such a big son comes to the door to recognize his father, maybe I really don't know what to do."

Mrs. He said again: "The most important thing about this matter is the Tailord and Taifuren. If they find out, they will definitely not let it go. Mr. Wen's entry into the clan has become a certainty."

"So what? As long as I don't nod, there's nothing they can do. Unless it's for Wen Lin, the whole family's future will be lost. Father and aunt are confused, and the two uncles are not confused."

"After the princess gets married, I will tell His Majesty that my second uncle Huaifeng will inherit the title. I will live my own life with peace of mind. Let the second uncle deal with Wen's mother and son. It has nothing to do with me."

The mother was categorical, she had already thought of a way out for herself, and Song An was that way out.

During the Chrysanthemum Appreciation Banquet in Lu's Mansion that day, cousin Su Ji also mentioned that Mr. Song An visited the Taiwei's Mansion from time to time and sent many treasures to his uncle and grandfather.

Lin Xingwei listened silently by the window for a while, then went back to his room.

She made an appointment with Cao Ruicen to go to Jingshui Tower to listen to Guan Xingyun's play tomorrow, so she should go to bed early today.

On the second day, Cao Ruicen picked up Lin Xingwei in an unremarkable carriage at the Hou Mansion. The two disguised themselves in the carriage, put on veiled hats, and entered Jingshui Tower through the back door.

Obviously, it is possible to go there aboveboard, but Cao Ruicen is afraid of being scolded by Mrs. Ouyang, so he always avoids some people.

Since the father and brother of the Cao family were punished by the Holy Master for their engagement to the Fang family, they have kept a low profile for a while.

Fangzhou Mu was reprimanded and had already gone back to Bingzhou with his wife and daughter. I heard that Cao Yi was still at home in the capital, drinking heavily every day, and even Mrs. Ouyang couldn't persuade her.

During this schedule, Cao Ruicen wanted to avoid any suspicion, so as not to bring trouble to his family.

These days, Cao Ruicen occasionally came to the Lin's house to sit with Lin Xingwei or Lin Chengan, and the others didn't want to go out.

It was still in the Lu Mansion the day before yesterday, when Lin Xingwei said he would take her to the Jingshui Tower to listen to a play, that's when she came out.

Lin Xingwei led Cao Ruicen to the attic, and sat in a box where he could see the outside but not the inside.

As long as you open the window, you can see the stage, because the attic is slightly higher, and the people on the stands below cannot see the people in the attic box.

This is a special box reserved for nobles in the Jingshui Tower, but Guan Xingyun pointed out that it is for Lin Xingwei's exclusive use, so no one else can enter.

After sitting down in the box, the two girls took off their caps to reveal their true faces.

The servants and maidservants in the Jingshui Tower all knew the rules of Princess Ning in serving, so they put down their tea and snacks, and went outside to guard.

Guan Xingyun has already appeared on the stage. Cao Ruicen usually likes to listen to Guan Xingyun's plays, but today he was absent-minded. After looking around in the stands downstairs, he said softly to Lin Xing: "Princess, my brother Yao wants to see you, so it's right there .”

Lin Xing was slightly stunned, and followed Cao Ruicen's gaze. Cao Yi was sitting on the stand with his back to them, one person at a table and one cup of tea, looking extremely panicked.
