After Wei Yuanting returned to Wei Mansion, Wei Lin was much better. But he still pretended to be weak and curled up on the couch. When Wei Yuanting entered his room, he half-opened his eyes and said pitifully, "Dad...where have you been..."
"Are you awake?!" Wei Yuanting heard the call and stepped up to sit down.
Wei Lin nodded slowly twice, then closed his eyes to rest. Wei Yuanting was startled, and he felt more and more that the expert had justified his words: Wei Lin had just been hired by Jiang Mansion, and Wei Lin's life was definitely saved after the ceremony was fulfilled. Thinking about it, Wei Yuanting said again: "There is an expert who pointed out that as long as you marry the person you are destined to marry, you can get better."
Hearing this, Wei Lin pretended to be surprised: "I don't... I already... have a crush."
"I know." Maybe it was because he really felt sorry for Wei Lin's current discomfort, Wei Yuanting said softly, half coaxing him, "You and that kid from the Jiang family are destined, I have already gone to be hired and get married the day after tomorrow. "
"Dad..."
"You take a good rest, if you feel better, you will go to meet your relatives in person the day after tomorrow." Wei Yuanting said, "I didn't want you to go, but it's customary, so if you can go, you should go by yourself... If it's because the etiquette is not good, what happened? Bad pool, dad really…”
He only said half of what he said, and he didn't know why he couldn't continue. He turned to find him and said, "It's a pity that your mother doesn't know where she went..."
"It's okay." Wei Lin smiled weakly, "Thank you Dad for making it happen."
"Then you rest first, and the servants will stay outside." Wei Yuanting said, "I'm going to arrange the wedding."
"Um."
After Wei Yuanting left, Wei Lin was left alone in the room. He sat up hastily, trying to move his body, but although the poison was cured, the wound on his butt was not healed, and he suddenly cried out in pain, "Ouch!"
The servants outside had their ears pricked up, for fear that Wei Lin would shout from inside that they wouldn't hear. Hearing Wei Lin screaming at this moment, the servant immediately pushed open the door and said, "Second Young Master!"
Wei Lin's reaction was quick, and he didn't care about the flesh wounds on his body, and fell directly on the couch, gritting his teeth in pain. But when the servant walked to the edge of his couch, he immediately regained his composure, opened his eyes weakly and said, "Yes... there are cockroaches..."
"Huh?" The servant was stunned for a while, then looked around for a while, but couldn't see anything.
The servants of Wei's house are very serious about cleaning on weekdays, and there is no food in this wing, so how can there be cockroaches. The servant thought about it and asked tentatively, "Could it be that the second young master is wrong? There are no cockroaches in the wing room, right?"
"Probably..." Wei Lin said, coughing, "cough, cough... I'm hungry..."
"I'm going to prepare immediately," the servant said, turning around and leaving.
Wei Lin finally relaxed when he heard the door closing, and returned to his grinning expression. It was so painful to collapse on the couch just now, he reluctantly rubbed his back, but it was not as useful as Zhong Yi rubbed for him that day.
He wondered what Zhong Yi said to make Wei Yuanting seem unsuspecting, but no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't think of a reason. So Wei Lin didn't think about it anymore, and turned to thinking about the future marriage.
The Wei Mansion was decorated with red silk everywhere, and even the lanterns at the entrance were changed to red. The matter is urgent, relying on the servants in the house alone, there are simply not enough manpower. Wei Yuanting dispatched fifty of the elite soldiers stationed outside the city, and made a special trip to help Wei Lin with this matter. There were a lot of people who stayed in Jiang Mansion before, one was to help him, and the other was to keep Jiang Ye. If Jiang Ye repented temporarily and ran away before the wedding, wouldn't Wei Lin's life be at risk? Although Jiang seems to be very willing, but someone like Wei Yuanting has to guard against these possible unexpected situations.
Wei Yuanting looked at Wei Lin's complexion much better, and he was even able to stay and walk in the next night. He really admired the expert and was completely unaware of the fraud.
At the same time, the Jiang Mansion was overcast.
Jiang was also desperate, I was afraid that Wei Lin would have some shortcomings, but the people who stayed behind Wei Yuanting were determined not to let him leave Jiang Mansion for half a step. The front door and the back door are all guarded, and the housekeepers need to check again and again when they go out to buy some things. He knew that Wei Yuanting was afraid of his escape from marriage.
But where is he still thinking about escaping marriage, he is all about Wei Lin's safety.
Mrs. Jiang cried and cried all night, and finally managed to restrain her sadness under Jiang Min's communication. Jiang also looked at the appearance of his parents again. He already had some gray hair, but it seemed to be more after this day.
If he really believed in the destiny, it would be worth it to save Wei Lin's life.
"Father, mother." Jiang also thought about it for a long time, but decided to tell the matter.
The whole family was eating at this time, and the atmosphere was extremely solemn. No one spoke, only the sound of chopsticks touching the porcelain bowl could be heard. Jiang Ye broke the silence as soon as he spoke, and the second elder of the Jiang family looked up at him, waiting for the next.
"I'll tell you the truth about this matter." Jiang also hesitated for a moment and said.
Jiang Min has been in a panic at home for the past two days. He looks like Jiang, and he can't get out of the Jiang residence at all. At this time, when he heard his eldest brother speak, it wasn't that he couldn't see the relationship between the eldest brother and Wei Lin, so he looked at Jiang Ye with some expectation: "Brother, do you really want to say it?"
When the two brothers said this, Madam Jiang and Master Jiang had doubts on their faces.
Master Jiang said, "What's the matter?"
Jiang also picked up the teacup on the table and drank all the tea in it in one gulp: "General Wei's youngest son is my comrade-in-arms."
"I know you know each other, but you can't..." Master Jiang said halfway through his mouth, but he didn't say the following sentence. Mrs. Jiang followed: "Yes, even if you know each other... This is going to ruin the happiness of your life."
Jiang also shook his head and said seriously, "No, it's not."
He said, got up from the dining table, walked to the side and knelt down, the rocker was straight, and continued:
"Father, mother, his name is Wei Lin, and he has saved me many times on the battlefield. And it's not just that, it's because my son is unfilial... I've already made a private life with him."
"What did you say?!" Master Jiang asked loudly, shaking the chopsticks in his hand.
Jiang was not afraid at all, and continued: "Even if I love him, he loves me too. Right now, his life is at stake, let alone marrying him, he can be given his life."
"You guys! You guys!" Mr. Jiang was so angry that he couldn't speak smoothly, "I don't know how to be ashamed! It's against the family!"
Mrs. Jiang started to cry with a "wow" and said something intermittently, but others couldn't hear a single word clearly.
Jiang also wanted to speak, but Jiang Min suddenly stood up, walked behind Mr. Jiang, and gently said to him, "Father, don't make yourself angry..."
"Why don't you get angry with your brother for doing such a thing!" Master Jiang scolded.
"It's my fault..." Jiang also lowered his head and whispered.
If it were other things, Jiang also knew that even if he was a little more willful, it would not be so. But this is the most unfilial thing, so he can't shirk. There are three kinds of unfilial piety. No offspring is great. If he chooses to be with Wei Lin, it will be impossible to have any more offspring.
But what can I do? The relationship is a qualitative change at a certain moment, and it is too late to think about the consequences.
He had nothing to say other than admit his mistake.
Jiang Min quickly persuaded: "Father, don't just worry about being angry. Mother, don't cry, please listen to Min'er say a few words?"
Mr. Jiang was so angry that his face was blue, and he didn't say anything, just acquiesced.
"Since the general has opened his mouth, our Jiang family, even if they have some money, are ordinary people, and they will definitely not be able to provoke them." Jiang Mun said, "Since this is the case, anyway, the big brother is destined to marry big brother Wei, then he two Wouldn't it be better if a person has feelings? You think, if the eldest brother has no feelings for that person, is a man, and enters the Wei family, then the eldest brother will marry a few more concubines, won't the eldest brother be trapped in the Wei residence for the rest of his life? If that's the case, the big brother is too pitiful! At least now, although he is forced to helpless, it is better for big brother to be with the person he likes than to be with the person he doesn't like."
Jiang Min said, winked at the kneeling Jiang also, and continued: "Besides, eldest brother Wei also knows Min'er. He is a very nice person, so he won't treat eldest brother badly. If our family has the backing of the Wei family, The benefits are endless. Dad, don't be angry. Tomorrow eldest brother is going to get married, so it's good for everyone to be harmonious."
Jiang also never imagined how his younger brother could be so eloquent now. In the past, he was clearly a little brat who couldn't even deal with the kiln sister in the kiln house. After so many years, he now speaks in a eloquent manner, which is staggering.
Although Jiang Mun was speaking to help Jiang Ye, everyone could see that, but he had to say that what he said was true and made sense.
Right now, the Jiang family has no choice at all, and General Wei and the others really can't afford to offend them.
Mother Jiang pondered in her heart, indeed, if she also likes that person, it's not too bad. She didn't know when she stopped crying, wiped the tears from her face with silk, and said to Master Jiang, "Master, Ben'er is right... I don't ask for anything else, I just want to have a good life. "
Master Jiang was silent for a long time, and finally sighed and said, "Get up and eat."
This is probably to forgive Jiang Ye. Jiang also had a happy expression on his face, and cast a grateful look at Jiang Min, and quickly got up from the ground and sat back on the table, very attentively serving his parents: "Father, mother, eat more..."
"As long as you are doing well, Mother will ask for nothing." Mother Jiang's eyes were still red as she looked at Jiang Ye.
Parents always care about their children in their hearts, whether it is the eldest son or the younger son, they are always distressed. When Jiang also went to the battlefield, Jiang's mother cried quietly several times, for fear that some day officers and soldiers would come to give them pensions.
"Mother, I know." Jiang also said, "I only hope that my parents, and Ben'er, will be safe and happy in this life."
"Brother, you really sound like an old man when you say that." Jiang Min said with a smile.
"Fuck you, eat!" Jiang Ye gently tapped Jiang Min's head with the end of his chopsticks.
Mr. Jiang didn't speak for a while. He waited until the meal was almost finished before finally asking, "I remember General Wei, it should be the Shangzhou Army."
"Yes." Jiang also nodded.
"Then do you want to go to Shangzhou with you?"
"I don't know, maybe." Jiang also replied with a frown, "But Shangzhou is very close to Xiangcheng, so if you want to come back, you should be able to come back at any time."
It was only when Master Jiang mentioned Shangzhou that Jiang also remembered that Wei Lin was going to work in Jiangling. He always felt that something was wrong, a little weird, but no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't come to a conclusion. Wei Lin's dying matter completely messed up his mind. Seeing Wei Lin still alive right now is more important than anything else.
As he thought about it, Wei Lin's smiling face appeared in his mind, and when he thought about how weak he was when he was injured, he only felt distressed for a while, and suddenly began to regret letting the emperor reward Wei Lin with twenty big boards.
- You live well, and I will never hit you again.
