Chapter 18
That night, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse. After the family had eaten, they went back to rest. Old Master Wen looked at the clerk and tried to speak, but he stopped. Finally, he turned silently and slipped away like a rabbit. Only Wen Yiqing followed him with his tail.
Behind Wen Mianmian, she wanted to eat that delicious snack.
Wen Shumian and Wen Lingxiao and his son arrived at the study room, and the sky outside became even darker.
Wen Lingxiao sat down and smiled and said, "I didn't expect my sister would like to get together with her grandfather. After my sister recovered from her serious illness, she changed a lot."
"If my sister hadn't noticed that her grandfather was wrong this time and asked hard and hard, she would have been quite passive."
Speaking of his daughter, Wen Shunmeng was very proud. He picked up the teacup on the table and slapped it, and said with a smile: "The abbot of Yuanen Temple said at that time that Mianmian would have great blessings when she woke up, but now it seems that it is true."
"Why haven't you heard that the man next door has been in trouble recently?"
Regarding this, Wen Lingxiao immediately added a halo to her sister, "Didn't it mean that my sister is lucky now? Maybe it's just that she has benefited from the next door."
The clerk smiled, "It's right."
As for your own daughter, that is definitely the best. A person who has been in trouble will be lucky because he has an engagement with her daughter. Isn’t it the credit of her daughter?
The father and son looked at each other and laughed. Fortunately, the emperor was not here at the moment. If he were there, he would really doubt whether the father and son still have the ability to protect the territory of Dongshu.
Looking at his son who had not realized that he had a problem, Wen Shuneng took out the note he received today and handed it to Wen Lingxiao. Wen Lingxiao only took a look and his face looked very ugly.
The note only said that it was about the old man in the mansion. I knew the details. I met in the backyard of the Baihui Building at the first update tonight.
"Baihui Building is the second prince's property."
Wen Lingxiao's brows froze slightly, and he stood up and bowed, "This matter was my son's negligence."
The shadow guard who was investigating the news of the General's Mansion has always been in his hands. Recently, due to the complicated military affairs and lack of energy, such a big mistake has occurred.
When I thought of the second prince stabbing him to the emperor first, I couldn't help but take a breath...
The candle in the room was jumping uneasy, the clerk raised his eyes and said coldly: "The border is turbulent, and the Southern Qi has been exploring the border frequently recently. The military affairs are the top priority. You can leave the information to Wei Feng."
Wei Feng was so proud to cultivate his documents, and his loyalty and ability were beyond doubt.
Wen Lingxiao knew the importance of this arrangement and did not feel dissatisfied with it, so he bowed to say yes.
Next, the father and son started to discuss the opportunity. The night became even darker. In a moment, the sound of gongs came from outside the mansion, accompanied by the long shouts of the guest: "The sky is dry, be careful of the fire candles."
!”
The father and son in the room gradually stopped as the shouts of the husband. About half of the incense stick passed, and footsteps sounded outside the study. The person came was Wei Feng who was mentioned by Wenshu Mian just now.
Wei Feng was thirty years old, with pretty eyebrows and slim figure. He walked in and bowed, "Reporting to the general, the person waiting in Baihui Tower was Qin Gong, the adviser at the Second Prince's Mansion."
The ward clasped his lips slightly, "Have you given all the notes?"
Wei Feng nodded, "I personally delivered it to him."
The clerk smiled reluctantly, "Wei Feng, from now on, you will take over Shadow in full."
Wei Feng was stunned for a moment, and saw that there was nothing wrong with Wen Lingxiao's face, so he hurriedly bowed excitedly, "I accept the order."
The candle in the study of the general's mansion was soon extinguished. At this moment, Hua Jingsheng from the second prince's mansion was holding a blank note and puzzled.
The strategist stepped forward carefully, "Maybe the general did an article on paper to cover up his eyes and ears?"
Hua Jingsheng handed the note back to the strategist. Based on his past experience, the strategist made a fire-cured smoke and soaked in water. After a while, the note was scrapped or not.
Hua Jingsheng's anger gradually arose, "What did you do? This is what I mean to make this prince not waste his time and be a bastard."
The strategist knelt down in a hurry and did two things in succession. He probably couldn't save his job.
“Get down.”
Hua Jingsheng looked at his back while crawling, his eyes showing viciousness...
The next morning, the rising sun rose, and it was another day when the concierge of General Wensheng's mansion was proud. The woman next door came with a snack box again.
There is no need to communicate this time. In the jealous eyes of the doorman next door, Shunzi and Jinzi took the food box with a reserved attitude, turned around and sent it in, and rushed out and waited. Now is not the time to fight with the other side.
Today is the day when officials of the Annan King's Association's Rites come to visit and get hired. As the general's mansion, they cannot be embarrassed.
On such a big day, the teacher asked for leave for a day and came to his house for a son-in-law.
"Girl, get up soon, my son-in-law is coming later."
Caiyun lives inside, Wen Mianmian sleeps so hard that she doesn't know what day it will be. She lifts her eyelids with difficulty, but can't hold on to close it anymore.
Lingguo looked anxious and bent down to pull the quilt. "Girl, all the snacks next door are delivered, you're getting up soon."
After a moment, the curtain was lifted open, and the dressed up was a little grand, Mrs. Wen stepped in, "Oh, why is Mianmian still asleep? Get up and do her makeup quickly."
According to Dongshu's rules, when discussing a marriage, both men and women should come out to see each other in person. When the girl who is allowed to marry on the day of the next recruitment date, they will go out to look at each other with their future son-in-law, which will save Li Daitao from being confused.
Mrs. Wen didn’t know that Wen Mianmian had met Hua Jingyun, and thought that she would have to dress up well this first time.
Wen Mianmian was dug out by two girls, Lingguo and Lingcao, and said pitifully, "Mother, I don't have to dress up, just put on my clothes."
"I haven't had the hairpin."
"Don't dress up before I get enough? Hurry up." Mrs. Wen began to direct the girls in the house to get busy. Half an hour later, a quietly cute Wen Mianmian stood in the sun.
Mrs. Wen walked around Wen Mianmian and was very satisfied, "Mianmian looks like your father, but looks like a girl with a hairpin."
As she smiled, her eyes turned red and she pressed her eyes. If her sister had a spirit in the sky, she would be so happy to see the beauty of Mianmeng!
"Come on, my mother tells you the rules for meeting today..."
After saying a few words, I suddenly heard a noise outside the yard, and some footsteps heading towards the front yard. Just as I was wondering, Lingcao Huan ran back happily, went to the front, bowed his knees, and spoke with a smile.
"Madam, girl, King Annan came with the Lord of the Ministry of Rites, and the general and the eldest son were entertaining in the front yard."
After a moment, Mama Liu also came. When she saw someone, she smiled and said, "It was Mr. Pei, the Minister of Rites, who came in person and brought seventy-two betrothal gifts. I saw it really, the seventy-two betrothal gifts are all full.
