Chapter 135 I Give Winter Clothes to the General

Looking at the brocade that Lin Xingwei sent over, Mrs. Lin had an idea, and said, "General Wei's parents are far away in Beihai County. I heard that the adoptive parents in the capital are very strict with him. From now on, Ran Ran will show more love to him. , People’s hearts are fleshy, if you treat him well, he will naturally treat you well. Go to the cloth shop and choose some satin that young people like, and send it to General Wei, so that he can make winter clothes.”

"Should I send it over?" Lin Xingwei felt that she had heard wrongly. Just now, her grandmother said that there is no need to deliberately greet her.

The second uncle said in a choked voice: "It's not you, should I?"

Lin Xing pouted dissatisfiedly, got up and backed out.She also doesn't understand men's preferences, so she wants to ask her cousins ​​to accompany her.

Lin Chengyu hadn't come back after entering the court, only Lin Tingyu was at the mansion, after Lin Xingwei agreed and chose a satin suit for him, Lin Tingyu reluctantly agreed to go to the cloth village the next day to help her see the details.

Lin Xingwei and Lin Tingyu picked the color of the cloth together, Lin Tingyu said: "Ran Ran, don't you know how to divination, the previous calculations are accurate, why don't you count the marriage between you and General Wei this time?" Can't make it?"

Lin Xingwei said lazily: "It should be possible to succeed this time, but the process will be more bumpy."

"Why?"

"The hexagram said so, and I don't know why....Elder cousin, you should be careful recently, you will have good luck, and be careful not to be punished by His Majesty."

Lin Tingyu raised his hand and flicked Lin Xingwei's forehead, "Don't talk nonsense, I never make mistakes, I do things diligently, how can I be punished by His Majesty? I never chat and laugh with other women, where did I come from?" Good luck?"

"It's fine if the cousin doesn't believe me, I just made a guess along the way." Lin Xingwei pouted.

The satin has been selected, a piece of bright-colored floating brocade, a piece of blue and dark fretwork satin, and a piece of rice soup-colored cotton cloth for lining.

Lin Tingyu took the fabric he had chosen and sent someone back to the mansion, Lin Xingwei settled the bill and the two left the fabric shop.

Lin Tingyu also wanted to accompany her cousin to the Wei Mansion, but was rejected by Lin Xingwei. This was the first time she went to see Wei Mingji in an open and honest manner. Although she didn't know what to talk about, it would be even more inconvenient to talk if there was a cousin around. up.

Lin Tingyu sent Lin Xingwei to the gate of Wei's mansion, and then reluctantly left after giving thousands of instructions.

Lin Xingwei asked Luo Fu to carry three pieces of cloth to call the door of Wei Mansion. Before he got close, the guard at the door trotted up to greet him, saying that General Wei had just left the court and returned to the mansion, and the Princess came just in time.

It's good that people are here, otherwise I have to make two trips.

Not long after the guards went in, Bao Shang came out to welcome Lin Xingwei and Luo Fu in, and the two young soldiers behind him shared the cloth in Luo Fu's arms.

Bao Shang took Lin Xingwei into the living room.He said: "My general is offering incense in the mourning hall, the princess can wait here for a while."

"Fengxiang?" Lin Xingwei was a little puzzled, and a bad question arose in his heart, and he asked softly, "But which relative of the general passed away?"

Bao Shang smiled and said: "No, our general is happy after talking to the princess about the engagement, and comforts the ancestors about the engagement."

That's what it should be. I only said a satisfied daughter-in-law in my early twenties, so I should comfort my ancestors.That being the case, let's wait, Lin Xingwei sat on the seat, and a guard brought hot soup and snacks.

She looked around boredly. There were two rows of flower branch lamps on the left and right leaning on the red lacquered pillars with one bucket and two liter arches. smoked cage.

There is also a small tea table next to the desk. The tea sets on the table seem to be well-made at first glance.What attracted her most was a gold-plated tea cage with the pattern of flying dragonfly, as if the scent of dried tea came out of the hollowed-out gap.

After all, he is a child from a rich family. Everything is exquisite, and it feels very precious just by looking at it.

The Lin family also had some valuable and valuable things, most of which were rewarded by the empress, or sent by the Su family for their daughter, which was far less rich than the Wei family's own production and sales.

Wei Mingji finally came, he was dressed in plain clothes, striding in with a smile on his face, "Why did you come here so silently, I thought you would not see me until the chrysanthemum appreciation feast tomorrow. "

Lin Xingwei stood up and saluted, and said with a faint smile, "It's getting cold in late autumn, my grandmother was afraid that you didn't have any winter clothes, so she asked me to send some, and I went to the cloth shop to pick them myself..."

After the words were spoken, Lin Xingwei felt that the cloth was a bit redundant, and the Wei family was as rich as Wei, so how could they be short of winter clothes.

Wei Mingji happily looked at the three rolls of cloth on the desk. He walked to Lin Xingwei and sat down, touched the cloth with his hand, and asked softly, "Are you afraid that I don't have winter clothes or grandma is afraid that I don't have winter clothes?"

Lin Xing whispered: "...it's grandma."

"I hope it's you who are worried about me... You have a very good eye, and all the colors I like. I will find a tailor to make new clothes today." Wei Mingji said softly.

Lin Xingwei nodded awkwardly.

Wei Mingji suddenly said seriously: "You have nothing else to say to me?"

"Ah?" What do you say?Lin Xing was stunned for a moment, and said, "Has the general had lunch yet?"

Wei Mingji laughed loudly, and said: "Not yet, it's not yet midday. Why don't you stay and have lunch with me today? I'll ask the chef to cook what you want to eat."

Lin Xingwei looked up at the sky, it was still early, he was indeed nervous and asked the wrong thing.She raised her eyebrows calmly, got up and said: "No need, I have to go to the village to do something today, so don't bother me. I'll go first."

She bypassed the desk and walked outside.Wei Mingji got up and chased after him, blocked Lin Xingwei's way under the corridor, hesitated for a while and said: "I have nothing to do today, why don't I accompany you to the village in the countryside."

Bao Shang, who was next to him, lowered his voice and said, "Several adults have agreed to come to discuss matters with the general in the afternoon..."

Wei Mingji stared at him, and Bao Shang stopped talking.

Lin Xing smiled lightly and said, "My Zhuangzi is right there, I won't run away, wait until next time, and next time I will take the general with me."

Only now did Wei Mingji have a smiling face, and after sending Lin Xingwei out the door, he asked several times, "Don't forget the chrysanthemum appreciation banquet in the Lu Mansion tomorrow." "Why don't I accompany you to the Hou Mansion for dinner? Come back" "The fabric you chose is very beautiful, I plan to make a wide thick cloak"...

Except for going to the Hou Mansion for dinner, which was pushed by Lin Xingwei as "another day", she silently agreed to the rest.

Now that the Empress Dowager is still in her filial piety, if the news of the two families discussing marriage again spreads out, is discussed by the common people, and the courtiers participate in the performance, it will be very difficult for His Majesty to favor Wei Mingji any more.

After all, there were several other adults in the Cao family who were punished by the court for secretly discussing the appointment of their relatives. There are lessons learned from the past.

Lin Xingwei boarded the carriage and left. Wei Mingji watched the Lin family's carriage at the gate of the mansion in silence for a long time before turning around and entering the mansion.
