Chapter 108: The ancestral hall welcomes the new family
Chen Shihong felt sad in his heart, and he also knew that it was useless to say anything now, but he wanted to say it and defend himself.
"This girl, please tell Miss Cao, I, I ......" Chen Shihong originally wanted to swear an oath to the mountains and seas, but suddenly blocked his throat and couldn't speak.
At this time, Miss Chu arrived in the back hall, saw Chen Shihong, was full of joy, and saluted Chen Shihong and said, "Chen Xianggong, you are here." β
Chen Shihong nodded, took a deep breath, and said to Miss Chu: "Miss Chu, I should have accompanied you today, just because I have not finished handling some government affairs, and it is rude, please forgive me and the girl." β
"Chen Xianggong, you are the lord of a county, so naturally you have to put official affairs first."
Chen Qiushui saw Miss Chu looking at Chen Shihong with affection, so he thought and said, "Chen Xianggong, I have long heard that you are a talented man, since you have come here, why not write a poem?" β
Chen Shihong said that he didn't have the ability to write poems in seven steps, and he was called a genius, but everyone saw that he was the magistrate and gave him a high hat.
Speaking of which, seeing that Miss Chu was wearing a sword at her waist, she still made a poem.
"I am accustomed to wandering in the rivers and lakes, and I will start from the beginning. Love and hate are always hard to stop.
Zhou Liuyun looked at the eyes, and Qi Yun's sword was cold. Some people are worried about the sea. β
After Chen Shihong finished writing, he said to everyone that in a hurry, there may be a rhyme, and I ask everyone to forgive me.
Miss Chu naturally won't pursue these, even if this is a limerick poem, it is also a good poem that has never been seen in her heart.
As for Chen Qiushui, her martial arts are better than poetry, and she thinks that this poem is not bad, so she didn't say whether it was good or bad, but said to Chen Shihong: "I still understand before, but some people are worried, and it doesn't seem to be compatible with Miss Chu." β
Chen Shihong said that he substituted himself for a while, and he was no better than Miss Chu, who went to swim with a sword, and was worried when he saw the waves.
Miss Chu smiled and said, "Actually, it's not bad, this sea and waves, I will also worry." When Miss Chu said this, her face turned red, and Chen Qiushui hurriedly picked up and said, "I understand, Sister Chu is worried about Chen Xianggong, if the East China Sea is uneven, this Haining City will be affected." β
Miss Chu hummed softly, Chen Shihong saw this situation, but sighed, it is true, if the East China Sea is restless, the fishermen around here will not be happy, this fish are all fresh, they have to go to the sea every day to fish, if the East China Sea is unstable for a few days, they must go outside to fish in order to make a living. When the time comes, it will be really unpredictable.
Everyone just responded for a while, but they were not interested, Chen Shihong saw this, thought of Miss Cao, and could only sigh in his heart.
Miss Chu observed her words and looks, and also told what she saw on the way, Chen Shihong listened to it with relish, and when she heard Miss Chu's righteousness, she felt that Miss Chu was also a good match.
He waited for Miss Chu to finish speaking, raised the teacup, replaced the wine with tea, and toasted Miss Chu with a glass.
Miss Chu said that if there is peace today, but these magistrates are not very competent, they dare not do anything for this prosperous world, all they think about is how not to have an accident, if there is really something, they can't handle it, and they don't go to the court, they want to cover it up.
Miss Chu was worried that if she covered it up like this, it might cause a big disaster in the future.
Chen Shihong thought so, saying that there are still too few useful officials in the imperial court, and if the saints can be eclectic, select talents, let the sages reign, and retire from the unscrupulous, the world can be stable for a long time.
"Chen Xianggong, how can there be so many sages." Chen Qiushui took the words and said disapprovingly.
"There are 20,000 people in this court, even if you choose one out of 10,000, you can use 20,000 people." Chen Shihong said this, and told Chen Qiushui that in this Haining County, it is not difficult to choose a virtuous person, but a virtuous person, one has no name, and the other has no title, so he can only be the same as Shengdou Xiaomin, and the sun rises and rests.
Chen Qiushui thought about it, and was about to say that it was the reason why Chen Shihong wanted to become inflammatory, but in Miss Chu's face, he could only say: "Chen Xianggong, what you said is good, but Chen Xianggong, it's too boring to talk about this, let's talk about something fun." β
Chen Qiushui smiled and said to Miss Chu, "Miss Chu, are you going to find the Excalibur, or are you going to stay here and wait for the marriage to be completed?" β
Miss Chu lowered her head in shame and looked at Chen Qiushui: "Sister Chen, you're making fun of me, I'm going to be angry." β
"This is not a joke, this is a serious matter, since your marriage contract is decided, it is natural to prepare for this matter. Are you two going to have to wait a few more years? β
Siyun also said at this time: "Yes, master, girl, you two should also get married early, lest the saint be crowned when the time comes, and it will not be beautiful at that time." β
Chen Shihong was reluctant to get married so soon, saying that this matter still needs to be decided by his parents.
Although Miss Chu wished to hurry up, she was not easy to urge because she was a woman.
Chen Qiushui led the topic to literature, Chen Shihong talked about it all the time, and Lin Duowen, who had been silent, also took this opportunity to consult Chen Shihong.
In this way, when it was time for dinner, there was naturally a separate room for men and women, and that night, Chen Shihong went back.
Chen Qiushui lived in the Xiulou, but she didn't say anything about Chen Shihong, so as not to worry Cao Chifeng, she asked Cao Chifeng about it, and Cao Chifeng also told Chen Qiushui about her life experience.
After Chen Qiushui heard this, he pitied Cao Chifeng even more, and he had to find a way to find a wishful husband for Cao Chifeng.
On the fourth day of Chen Qiushui's arrival, someone from the academy came to visit again.
Chen Jingjing and Nie Yunfeng were chatting, and the doorman sent a post, Chen Jingjing looked at the name on it, and said suspiciously: "Tang Jin and Sima Deyi, these two juniors, why haven't I heard of it, Yunfeng, do you know each other?" β
After Nie Yunfeng heard this, he said to Chen Jingjing: "This is the person of your Lin family, how could you not have heard of it." β
"Yes, yes. I didn't expect Brother Quan's guess to be true. β
Chen Jingjing asked the maid to invite Yin Lihua to greet her with her.
When she arrived at the gate, Chen Jingjing looked at Tang Jin and looked at it, and sure enough, her eyebrows were similar to Lin Quan.
Tang Jin couldn't help but be happy when he saw Nie Yunfeng, and saluted Nie Yunfeng and said, "Scattered people, see you for a long time." β
"Ah Jin, I really didn't expect to see you here, this is Mrs. Lin."
When Tang Jin saw Chen Jingjing, his expression was complicated, and he made a blessing salute to Chen Jingjing, and then Sima Deyi also saluted.
Chen Jingjing also told Sima Deyi that she was a female dependent, and it was difficult to receive foreign guests, so she had to let Lin Duowen come to meet her, and asked Sima Deyi to forgive her.
Sima Deyi was not surprised, and said that it should be so.
Chen Jingjing asked the housekeeper to take Sima Deyi down, and then went to the backyard with Tang Jin, and met Yuan Lihua on the way, Yuan Lihua looked at Tang Jin and said suspiciously: "Why did Bingmei come back?" β
"This is not Bingmei, it's Miss Tang."
Yuan Lihua also came to her senses and didn't say anything more, when the group arrived in the backyard, Nie Yunfeng asked Tang Jin if she knew her life experience.
Tang Jin nodded, Chen Jingjing took Tang Jin to the ancestral hall, opened the lock, and said to Tang Jin: "Your father was worried about you before he died, and he told me, if you return to the Lin family, I can't be biased, I want to treat you as my own." Now that you're finally back, your father can be under the Nine Springs, and he can be blind. β
Tang Jin didn't know what to say, looked at the rows of divine lords in the ancestral hall, and asked Chen Jingjing: "Are these the gods of the Wei family?" β
Chen Jingjing nodded and said to Tang Jin, "Yes, it seems that your mother has already told you everything." Wait until the first month of next year, in front of everyone, recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors. β
Tang Jin didn't answer, but just put incense on these god tablets.
After the incense was finished, Chen Jingjing took Tang Jin to the secret room behind the ancestral hall, where there were portraits of Wei Baiyun and his wife, Wei Sisi's three brothers and herself, and Liu Xin's portrait.
Tang Jin looked at Wei Sisi's portrait, and wondered in his heart, Lin Quan and Wei Sisi didn't look at each other much.
But she didn't dare to ask more, after bowing to everyone three times, Chen Jingjing also saluted and prayed: "Grandparents, parents, Tuo Lie's blessing, the Liu family is finally here, and I also ask you to have a spirit in the sky, bless these four children, a safe life, no disease and no disaster." β
After praying, the two of them left.
Closing the door of the ancestral hall, Chen Jingjing took Tang Jin to her room, Yuan Lihua also entered, but Nie Yunfeng returned to her residence.
Chen Jingjing asked Tang Jin about it, Tang Jin told him about his life in Xirong, and after Chen Jingjing heard it, she sighed and said: "Over the years, you mother and daughter have suffered." β
Tang Jin said that there was nothing bitter, Tang Sai'er was very good to himself and did not let himself suffer.
Chen Jingjing asked Tang Jin if he was married, and if this Sima Deyi was her fiancΓ©.
Tang Jin hurriedly denied it, and then stopped talking, Chen Jingjing saw that she was reluctant to say, so she didn't force it, and was ready to ask Nie Yunfeng when the time came.
Next, Chen Jingjing asked the maid to ask Lin Duo to smell it, and after Lin Duo smelled it, he stood outside the door and asked what was the matter.
"Come in."
Lin Duowen had no choice but to come in, saw Tang Jin, and when he was about to salute, Chen Jingjing said to Lin Duowen: "This is your eldest sister, you still don't want to see it." β
This confused Lin Duowen, he stayed there, Chen Jingjing smiled and said, "You kid, this is your eldest sister." β
"My sister is above, please bow down to my brother."
Lin Duowen was in a panic, and his words were wrong, Chen Jingjing saw his panicked appearance, and said to Lin Duowen: "You kid, you are too panicked." I won't tell you the origin of your eldest sister, you just need to know that she is your father's eldest daughter. β
After Lin Duowen calmed down, he felt that there was nothing left, and according to his father's status, it was not surprising that he suddenly had any brothers and sisters.
