170. Postscript 04
Mei was very happy to confirm that her son really liked Chu Jin and she was extremely satisfied with the choice of daughter-in-law. However, when her son asked her how she would organize this marriage, Mei suddenly frowned.
When Lu Jun saw this, he said nervously: "Why, you don't want me to marry Chu Jin?"
Mei glared at her son: "It's not that I don't want to, it's that you often bullied Chu Jin when you were a child. I'm afraid Chu Jin won't like you!"
Lu Jun was so guilty that he was so guilty that he began to feel wronged after he was guilty and muttered in a low voice: "How could I bully her? It was all my second brother who bullied her, and I was supporting her."
Mei sneered, "You are only seventeen years old, and your memory is starting to be bad? Who used to want to play with Brother Zhao, and Chu Jin despise others? Just because you made Chu Jin cry, Brother Zhao has been so angry with you. You are still pretending to be in front of me, do you still want to get married?"
Lu Jun thought!
He surrendered and said, "I used to be ignorant, but now I am sensible. Mom, please help me."
Of course, Mei Shi wanted to help her son. Last night she had already figured out how to match her son and Chu Jin. With the relationship between the two and the two families, Mei Shi was not worried about Jiao. Zhao Yanping would object. The key lies in Chu Jin's attitude. Jiao and his wife both love their daughter. As long as Chu Jin nodded, the marriage would be settled for 80%!
Then why did Chu Jin like his son?
Mei's eyes fell on her son, looking up and down, the more she looked at her, the more she became disgusted.
Lu Jun was uncomfortable when his mother saw him, so he sat down and asked, "What are you looking at?"
Mei sighed, "I'm wondering what you have to make Chu Jin look at him differently, so I won't mention his temper. Chu Jin doesn't hate you, she is all generous, and you can't recite poems and lyrics. The only thing that can be used is a good martial arts." She also has a good face that inherited her husband, but she won't say this, so as not to let her son feel complacent.
Martial arts?
Lu Jun suddenly felt hopeless. Chu Jin stayed in the inner house all day long. How could he have the opportunity to show his martial arts in front of Chu Jin?
That night, the circling was a small skill, but Chu Jin looked faint and was not uncommon.
Mei thought of a plan and said to her son: "Spring is in full bloom, and the young men like to go to Juchang and Cuju. Are you the best at playing football? You can arrange two teams to compete. At that time, I invite you Aunt Meng and Chu Jin to watch the game together. You can perform well, Chu Jin may like you."
Lu Jun frowned and said, "How could she like it when she played football so hard and sweaty?"
Mei said, "You are stupid. No matter how much you sweat, Chu Jin is far away. What can she see? But you kick it well and kick it out with a romantic and elegant person. Chu Jin may be moved."
Mei also had a childhood in her prime and knew what the little girl liked during her life. Her son's face was a natural benefit.
Lu Jun was half-believing and half-doubting about his mother's plan.
By mid-March, the weather was getting warmer, and the young men who had been holding on for a winter went to Juchang to exercise their muscles.
The Cuju style has become popular in the past dynasty. Because it can strengthen the body, this dynasty also encourages men to play this. Children from poor families can kick their own space by themselves. The court also found a place to build the Juchang. Any competition organized by the court was held here. When there was no competition, who would want to play it? Just leave the wallet field. It not only strengthens the body, but also creates an extra income for the court.
Lu Jun is a master of football. Without him getting in, a team will invite him.
Lu Jun happily agreed and immediately told his mother about his days when he went home, on the 20th of this month.
Mei said, "Well, I'll go and ask your aunt tomorrow."
Twenty is a rare day of rest. Gillian originally wanted to take the children to the suburbs with Zhao Yanping, but Mei suddenly invited her to see Cuju. Gillian, who had never seen that thing, became interested. When she learned that it was a group of young men's competition, Gillian felt moved. She wanted to see her future husband for her daughter. Juchang was a good place.
"Can we go?" Gillian was more worried about this.
Mei smiled and said, "Of course, there are stands around the theater, and men and women are separated. Some young men compete and invite elders and sisters to cheer. This is like a theater. The more people support the audience, the more exciting the actors on the stage sing."
Gillian understood and agreed, "Then I will take Brother Zhao, Chu Jin, and Brother Fang together."
Mei joked: "I only take care of the children, don't want your officials?"
Ah Jiaoying said to her, "The children are almost getting married. You are not serious. I will ask him when he wants to go, and if he doesn't go, he will find something to do by himself."
Mei Shi said: "Well, I'll ask Brother Jun'er his father and the old lady."
Gillian said in surprise: "The old lady still likes to watch this?"
Mei smiled and said, "I didn't like it before. I'm not old and I have nothing to do. He likes to go wherever there is fun."
Gillian was quite envious. It would be great that she would have the spirit when she got old.
In the evening, Gillian announced the incident at the dinner table.
Chu Jin's eyes turned slightly, not too happy, but she didn't say she couldn't go.
Meng Zhao and Zhao Fang were both willing, but Zhao Yanping was left without saying anything.
Gillian looked at him.
Zhao Yanping didn't like the excitement, and he wanted the whole family to go out for a quiet outing, but Gillian and the children were looking forward to watching the game in Cuju, so he had to nod: "Go together."
At night, Gillian leaned against Zhao Yanping and asked him if he had watched the Cuju competition before.
Zhao Yanping had never seen it. He was born in the village. He started working in the fields at a very young age. When he grew up, he had various responsibilities and did not have the leisure of Cuju. When he arrived in the capital, he could get in touch with some things that wealthy families played with. However, Dali Temple was busy with official business, and big and small things in the palace might also involve his own family. Zhao Yanping still had no time to watch the fun.
Gillian pinched his strong arm and guessed: "You are so tall and strong, if you have practiced, you should be playing well."
She didn't say anything, Zhao Yanping was pinched and turned over, and he used his endless strength to his wife.
Gillian scolded him with unsteady breath and hugged him.
On March 20, the family came to Juchang in two carriages.
To book a football game, you have to pay for money, and to go in to watch the show, and the seats are divided into good or bad. Zhao Yanping and his two sons don’t care. They are planning to buy a place for Gillian and her mother, and they must be seated by the official family.
Before he could pay, everyone in the Duke Liguo's mansion arrived, namely Duke Lu Tai, Minister Lu, Mei and Lu Jun brothers.
Because his parents had already exposed his worries, Lu Jun began to blush when he saw Chu Jin, deliberately hid behind his father, not daring to let the Zhao family see his strangeness.
Chu Jin originally wanted to take a look at him secretly, but now it's fine, I can't even see it, let alone have to secretly.
"You are so happy." Mr. Lu mocked his apprentice first, "Is Dali Temple so leisurely?"
Zhao Yanping lowered his eyes in shame.
In front of the old lady, Gillian didn't dare to speak for her husband. Chu Jin felt sorry for her father and said to Lu Tai's fair voice: "Don't blame my father, I asked him to come. He was busy with cases every day and finally had time to have time to have time."
When Mr. Lu heard this, he taught Zhao Yanping a lesson that he was just busy with errands and neglected to accompany his children, and that he was not a good father.
In short, I have to pick a few thorns from my disciples.
This is also the usual attitude of Mr. Lu towards his children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. When Zhao Yanping first became a disciple, he did not have such treatment. In recent years, Mr. Lu has increasingly regarded him as his grandchildren.
Zhao Yanping could only bear it.
Mr. Lu went to pay the money, and Zhao Yanping hurriedly went to fight. Both of them wanted to pay the money. Mr. Lu was upset about how many taels of silver, did it?
In the end, it was the money paid by Zhao Yanping, because Mr. Lu was not as strong as him and could not compete with him.
Jiao and Mei were both laughing, and Chu Jin laughed too. Suddenly, she noticed a line of sight and turned her head suddenly.
When Lu Jun, who was hiding behind his mother, immediately retracted his head when he saw it, but he was already taller than Mei's. The slender and upright young man insisted on shrinking his head, but instead became the place where there was no silver.
Chu Jin couldn't guess what he was hiding, so he followed the elders in silently.
Zhao Yanping and others went to the male guest, Jiao Jiao, Mei Shi, Chu Jin and the maids around him sat on the female objective stage, because there was no official wife with a higher status than them today, so they sat in the best position.
More than twenty young men have stood in the center of the venue, one team wearing red clothes and the other wearing white clothes, and their foreheads are tied with forehead bands of the same color.
Chu Jin sat next to her mother. When Mei introduced that Lu Jun was a white team, she looked at the young men in white clothes and was looking for them. Someone inside shouted "Lu Jun" and waved to a position. Chu Jin looked along the way and saw a young man in white running from a distance. His handsome eyebrows were clever and his spirit was radiant. He ran in the wind. The white clothes flew with his agile figure, and his whole body seemed to be glowing.
Chu Jin couldn't help but see it.
Why didn’t I find this person so pretty when I was a child?
Mei often sees her son, and she will never lose her mind for her son's glory. She leans forward slightly and goes to see Chu Jin quietly. Seeing the little girl staring at her son intently, Mei smiles while sitting upright again. Her son's skills have not yet been revealed, but this "beautiful man trick" has already shown results.
Lu Jun mixed into his Cuju team and greeted his companions before he looked at the viewing stage inadvertently.
Chu Jin in his eyes was wearing a cherry-pink sakura, and a white long skirt was exposed under his clothes, just like a pink and tender cherry blossom blooming on the stage. Even though she was wearing a veil and blocking half of her face, Lu Jun could still imagine her beauty.
Relying on the distance, Chu Jin guessed that he couldn't see him and didn't hide anything.
The Cuju competition began soon.
Chu Jin's eyes never left Lu Jun again.
Although Lu Jun had no idea, he knew that his sweetheart was here. For his plan to marry, Lu Jun took out all his skills. He jumped high in the air and quickly broke through the other team's siege. His white figure was like a dragon, and he was the most eye-catching in the audience.
Gillian couldn't help but exclaim to Mei: "I usually heard Brother Zhao say that Jun Ge'er had excellent martial arts skills. When I saw him today, I realized how outstanding Jun Ge'er was. Look at the other young masters, they were all overshadowed by Brother Jun."
Mei said modestly: "What is the ability to play football? I like your brother Zhao more. He is gentle and has the talent of the top scorer. How many girls like us brother Jun, and all the girls are annoyed him. Chu Jin, don't you?"
Chu Jin's face became hot, and she didn't know whether to nod or shake her head.
She had indeed annoyed Lu Jun and wanted him not to come to his house to find his brother again, but after the night of the Lantern Festival, Chu Jin secretly looked forward to Lu Jun coming to his house. But two months passed, and Lu Jun never came once.
Gillian understood his daughter's hesitation as being embarrassed to admit that she annoyed Lu Jun, and replied to Mei with a smile: "Brother Jun is not yet enlightened yet. When he is two years older, he will know how to please the girl he likes."
Mei sighed deliberately: "I hope there will be that day."
Chu Jin listened next to her and felt confused. What kind of girl would Lu Jun like? He liked to bully her when he was a child. Although he is getting better now, it should be all about brother-sister relationships. He just treats her as a sister to take care of her. When he meets a girl he really likes, will he be like a father to his mother and he will be reluctant to let others suffer grievances?
I imagined that Lu Jun would suddenly lose interest in watching the game in the first championship because of which girl completely changed her appearance.
At the end of the game, the white team where Lu Jun is located won without any suspense.
Mei waved to her son.
Lu Jun hesitated for a moment and ran over.
After some intense exercise, the young Lang Jun's face turned red. He was afraid that Chu Jin would see the sweat on his face, so Lu Jun deliberately stood on his mother's side.
"What's the matter with me?" Lu Junwei panted.
Mei just wanted to observe Chu Jin's reaction. As a guise, she asked her son if he had a winning chance.
Lu Jun smiled and said, "There are twenty taels of silver. They will take the money to go to the restaurant to drink later, and I won't go."
Gillian said suspiciously: "Why don't you go?"
Lu Jun secretly glanced at Chu Jin and touched his head and said, "It's not interesting to be drunk. If you win, you'd rather play chess with your grandfather."
Mei Shi snorted: "You are sensible, okay, go and change your clothes."
Lu Jun glanced at Chu Jin again and ran away regretfully.
After all, Ajiao is also the wife of the Dali Temple Minister. Lu Jun's eyes were too obvious when he glanced at his daughter. Ajiao wanted to deceive himself as a misunderstanding. Realizing that Lu Jun actually had a crush on his daughter, Ajiao looked at Mei with verification.
Mei understood her eyes, nodded with a smile, and leaned into Ajiao's ear and whispered: "I only know that it is not convenient today, I will tell you in detail the next day."
Gillian was completely stunned. When did this young boy Lu Jun get his clue?
