I do fortune-telling in ancient astrology

Chapter 35

Compared with Fang's, Mrs. Lu's voice is not too pleasant, like an oriole, Lin Xingwei hopes that Mrs. Lu can say a few more words.

Madam Hou looked at Madam Lu with a slight smile on her face, glanced at the two uncles, and said, "Since that's the case, my family has no objections, so let's discuss a date."

Wei's father squeezed out the brightest smile on his vicissitudes dark face like old bark, a little embarrassed and embarrassed, said: "My son is busy tomorrow, and I want to get married as soon as possible. I took my son and Youningjun Please have a look at the Lord's horoscope, the most auspicious day is the first day of February, but Mingji is too busy to wait so long, so he said...tomorrow..."

"Tomorrow?..." Mrs. Hou couldn't help raising her voice, "How could you be in such a hurry? Even if you have prepared everything else, you can't be the only guest at the banquet, right? Our lady's guests have not been notified yet!"

Father Wei looked at Wei Mingji's handsome and serious face with embarrassing eyes, and Wei Mingji said: "Mrs. Hou, don't be upset, this junior has already found out which of your ladies' guests you can invite and which ones you don't have to invite, you have drawn up a list, and sent someone to send the invitation card .”

He raised his hand to signal Bao Shang who was behind him, and Bao Shang stepped forward to put a roll of bamboo slips on Mrs. Hou's case, and even opened it himself.

The two uncles also got up and surrounded them to visit together.

Hearing this move, Lin Xingwei frowned. Since he had already started drawing up the guest list, why didn't he discuss it with the Lin family, in case something went wrong...

Snapped!Madam Hou slapped the table with her palm, stared at Wei Mingji, and asked, "Why are there only these? Since they are relatives of my family, Wei Mingji, why don't you discuss with us?"

Lin Huaiyue looked at the guest list, tilted his mouth, and said in surprise: "My father and mother's birthday, the banquet guests are more than this."

The hall was momentarily embarrassed and surprised to the point of silence.Wei's father, Wei's mother, and Lu's couple all looked at their son Wei Mingji, apparently they did not expect Wei Mingji to draw up the Lin family's guest list without discussing with the Lin family.

Wei Mingji still did not change his countenance, and said loudly: "The younger generation will go to war in a few days, the wedding is held in a hurry, everything is simple, and there are not many guests invited by both parties. If Mrs. Hou doesn't believe it, Shang, you also send our list to Hou Take a look, madam."

As soon as Bao Shang was about to leave, Mrs. Hou became angry, "You don't pay attention to our Lin family! Marriage matters are decided by you alone! Master Hou and I only have one daughter, and no one can despise the Lin family. Treat her poorly! I will report to Your Majesty and Queen right away, and this marriage will be over!"

Lin Huaifeng looked sad and wanted to cry, and said with a sob: "Our three brothers and sisters in the Lin family have only two sons and one daughter in total. Not to mention how much my elder brother who passed away loved Ran Ran, even our uncles took this daughter Hold it on the tip of your heart. Wei Mingji, you are trying to gouge out the hearts of our whole family!"

Although the two aunts did not speak, they also wept secretly.

The two cousins ​​also stared angrily at Wei Mingji, begging him for an explanation.

Fang's plump face was about to fall to his chest, he hesitated and asked: "Erlang, you can't do this, how can you be so hasty in matters of marriage? Let's postpone the wedding..."

General Lu, who hadn't spoken for a long time, coughed dryly, and finally said, "This is a major event in your life. My father will support you whatever you want, but you can't underestimate the Lin family."

Mrs. Hou breathed a sigh of relief, calmed down, and said: "We are not willing to marry this marriage, and you two don't have a deep relationship. My family Ran Ran is quite capricious, and she is not good enough for General Wei. General Wei is busy When you get up, Shenlong can't see the end, don't let this marriage delay the general's future, just let it go."

He said again: "All the betrothal gifts of the Wei family, if you can take away now, take away, and if you can't take away, I will send someone back later."

Lin Xingwei hid his hands in his sleeves, secretly rubbing the half jade that Wei Mingji had given her, lowered his head and lowered his eyes without saying a word.

This is also a knife slashing the butt, opening the eyes.Don't say that this is the ancient times that paid attention to etiquette, or that it was a family of high-ranking officials and wealthy families. Even if it is placed on ordinary people today, there are very few flash marriages that happen so quickly.

Mrs. Lu said: "Mrs. Hou, don't be angry. Such a big matter is not just to let it go. I have to ask Princess Youning what he thinks about this matter."

Fang Shi was so angry that he touched his chest, and looked at Lin Xingwei expectantly.

Lin Xingwei raised his head, glanced at Wei Mingji, who was as bright as the moon, and said silently: "I agree with my mother, I have no relationship with General Wei, and we have only met a few times. Take it seriously, to hold the wedding hastily is also to wrong General Wei."

Lin Xingwei took out half a piece of jade from his sleeve and put it on the case, and said, "General Wei, please return my glazed bracelet."

Wei Mingji's stubborn expression finally eased a lot. After a moment of silence, he got up and said, "Madam Hou, can you find another secluded place, I want to chat with Madam Hou alone."

Although Mrs. Hou's face was gloomy and solemn, she could still satisfy this requirement, and she set off to walk outside, wearing a blue cloak that was blowing in the wind, and Wei Mingji followed immediately.

Lin Huaiyue said: "Ran Ran, why don't you go and listen?"

Lin Xingwei's long eyelashes flickered twice, his eyes turned to look at the leaving figure of his mother and Wei Mingji outside the door, and said: "Since General Wei wants to talk to his mother alone, my niece will not go with me."

Fang smiled happily, turned around and said to a woman holding a black lacquered brocade box behind her, "A Tao, send it to the princess."

Turning her head around, she said to Lin Xingwei: "This is a string of garlands personally made by the old woman for the princess. When meeting for the first time, it should be treated as a greeting gift. Regardless of whether we can become a family with the princess, the princess should not hold back and shirk. "

Atao put both hands of the brocade box on Lin Xingwei's case, and then retreated behind Mrs. Fang.This brocade box is black in color, covered with a layer of Kesi moiré satin, and the edges are painted with yellow lacquer flowers, which is uneven to the touch and has a three-dimensional effect. The chain buttons are made of gold filigree.

The gifts from the Wei family were both luxurious and expensive, and they were extravagant. Just such a box containing things is so exquisite, with luxurious materials and complicated workmanship. I don't know what is inside.

Lin Xingwei also didn't know what a garland was. After slowly opening the brocade box, she saw that it was a necklace, but it was made of clam, agate, and pearls threaded with gold thread. There were also many beads that Lin Xingwei didn't know. Very luxurious.

Fortunately, it was indoors. If it was placed outside under the sun, it might blind her eyes.

Lin Xingwei closed the box with trembling hands, pushed it forward an inch, and said, "Madam Fang's gift is too expensive, I can't afford it, please take it back."

Mrs. Fang smiled and said: "It is not the materials that are valuable, but the old woman's heart. From the box to this garland, I made it myself. The county chief pushed it, but it will hurt you." The old woman's heart is broken."

Wei's father was ashamed and said: "Princess take it, my son is so rude, it should be my family to apologize to the princess and Madam Hou."

Lin Huaiyue flipped his sleeves and said, "What are you doing with you old couple? Didn't General Wei grow up in your Wei family all these years?" After speaking, Lin Huaiyue glanced at the Lu couple.

Lu Yi looked calm, not ashamed or ashamed, and said indifferently: "My son's behavior has its own reasons, and it has nothing to do with who's upbringing."

Mrs. Lu said: "Uncle Lin, don't be upset, let's wait for the result of Ming Ji's discussion with Mrs. Hou."

Lin Huaifeng said: "Before the results come out, let the three children go out first, so as not to let them hear some complaints between the elders, which will damage the dignity of the elders. Tingyu."

Lin Tingyu was suddenly noticed by his father, and he was taken aback for a while, then quickly came back to his senses, "Ran Ran, let's go out first, brother has something to say to you."

Lin Xingwei hurriedly got up, ignoring the extremely expensive garland, and after saying goodbye, she followed her two cousins ​​and escaped.
