Chapter 17 Wen Suiwan’s misty life
Lin Xingwei had no idea about Wen Suiwan, but her second aunt had a lot of ideas. After the birthday party, she immediately sent a letter to her eldest cousin in Yanshan Academy, asking him whether Wen Suiwan was married, what her family background was, and what her parents did. , how many people are there in the family, and what their conduct is like...etc., it is more detailed than checking the household registration.
When the sisters-in-law found out, they laughed at their second aunt for a long time. After laughing, they felt sad for each other.
Mrs. Pei felt sad and said dejectedly: "You and I don't have a daughter, Ran Ran is already engaged, why are you asking about these? They are of no use."
Mrs. Zhen cast a "what do you know" look and said: "Such a talented person, of course we have to find out the details. Our family can't use it, so we can marry other little girls. Today, the Prime Minister's Young Envoy Huang Jia came to give When my father congratulated me on his birthday, he was full of praise for Mr. Wen. His eldest daughter is sixteen years old. She is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. She is virtuous and respectful, so she will definitely be a good match for Mr. Wen."
Mrs. Hou raised her eyebrows and asked, "My second brother-in-law still wants to be an iceman?"
Mrs. Zhen said: "What's wrong with this? Huang Jia and my husband have a good relationship. If we help to get this matter done, he will definitely be grateful to us."
Mrs. Pei said: "I don't know what Mr. Wen thinks, but Huang Jia's daughter is not as good-looking as our maid. Do you think Mr. Wen can like someone with such good looks?"
Mrs. Pei glanced at Mrs. Zhen and said: "The third brother and sister are really superficial. Marriage is based on talent and character and family background first. Appearance is secondary."
This is in line with Lin Xingwei's wishes, but if two people are on a blind date, they will naturally look at appearance first. If the other person's appearance suits your taste, then you will be interested in knowing the other person's talent, character and family background. If you don't like the other person at first glance, the rest It's all empty talk.
Therefore, regarding her marriage, Lin Xingwei plans to go out more and make friends first, and then develop a relationship over time, so that she will not be too demanding about attractive appearance.
Now these words are all empty talk. You must first break off the engagement with Wei Mingji and then take action.
Mrs. Hou sighed: "As soon as I met that child today, I felt that I was destined. His facial features are similar to those of the two brothers, which is really surprising."
Mrs. Pei's eyes lit up: "Ran Ran said the same thing, and she even came to ask me if I was a relative of ours."
Taigong Lin and Mrs. Lin went to rest early, and the third uncle was drunk and lying on the table, still not awake.
The second uncle was sitting with Lin Xingwei checking accounts to see how much the banquet cost today and how many gifts were received.
Hearing the conversation between the women, Lin Huaifeng suddenly raised his head, hesitated for a moment and suddenly said: "If you don't tell me, you still don't think so. I feel like, uh... there are so many similar people in the world, so it's not surprising. .”
Lin Huaifeng waved his hands and lowered his head again to take stock. He felt that this man looked more like his deceased eldest brother Lin Huaishan, but he was afraid that his widowed elder sister-in-law would think too much about it, so he did not mention it.
Lin Xingwei saw what his second uncle was thinking and winked quietly. On the grounds that it was too noisy here and they needed some peace and quiet to count the accounts, they moved the accounting scene to the next door cabin.
As soon as the uncle and nephew entered the room, Lin Xingwei hurriedly pulled Lin Huaifeng to sit down: "Second uncle, Mr. Wen's surname is Wen and his name is Lin. He looks like a member of our family. Is he really related to our family? What did you think of? wrong?"
"Oh, please don't hold me back... I just have some small guesses, please don't pester me, I'm leaving." Lin Huaifeng shook off Lin Xingwei and was about to go out, but Lin Xingwei stepped forward and blocked the door.
Lin Xingwei pestered: "I didn't ask anything, I just think Mr. Wen is good-looking, so I'm talking about it."
"It's unethical to talk about other people's rights and wrongs. Didn't your mother tell you?" Lin Huaifeng pretended to be displeased and reached for the door.
"This is not a discussion, I'm just curious. My uncle said that Wen Lin's uncle is Jizhou Mu Wen Sui. Does that uncle know what his father's name is?" Lin Xingwei blocked the door hard and kept pestering.
Seeing that he could not escape, Lin Huaifeng had to sit down silently, "Mother Wen has been a widow for twenty years. Who knows who her husband is? I heard that her husband died early and the child was still a posthumous child. It is not surprising that Mr. Wen takes his mother's surname. He is named after his mother in the world. There are so many people in 'Lin', what does it have to do with our Lin family?"
Oh, it turns out that my father is also dead.
Lin Xingwei's gossip heart was a little disappointed. Originally, she had imagined a drama about the Lin family's illegitimate child, but she didn't expect that Wen Suiwan's father died so early. It had nothing to do with the Lin family.
According to the second uncle, everything was just a coincidence.
Two or three days later, my eldest cousin also received a letter from Yanshan Academy. It said: "Mr. Wen is a student of Master Han. My son has read Mr. Wen's articles, which are wonderful. Masters from the East praised him as a rare talent." , the child took Mr. Wen as an example and vowed to study hard and hope to become an official and serve the court as soon as possible, so as not to disgrace the Lin family."
Lin Xing sighed slightly, his eldest cousin went off topic and missed the point of his second aunt's question.
Without finding out the details about Wen Suiwan, the second aunt completely ceased her activities, her great desire to be an Iceman was completely extinguished, and the family's gossip mentality towards Wen Suiwan was completely over.
As the New Year approached, Madam Hou received an invitation from Ouyang, the wife of Guangluxun Cao Rong, saying that she had a new basket of snow pears and asked Madam Hou to bring her daughter to taste it.
Lin Xingwei was still muttering a little, every household was very busy during the Chinese New Year, and there was only a basket of pears. If Mrs. Ouyang was interested, she could just ask someone to send some over. Why did she have to invite someone over?
Mrs. Hou had already dressed up and sent Yuzhu to urge Lin Xingwei.
Mrs. He gave Lin Xingwei a long dress of golden Thai blue embroidered with clouds and aqua blue orchids. Lin Xingwei lifted the hem of the skirt and turned it around twice, her heart tightening with disgust.
This kind of dark blue dress looks old-fashioned for my mother, let alone a young girl with hair extensions.
Mrs. He said: "You can wear whatever you want at home, but be more simple when going out."
Mrs. Hou is a widow, so she can dress more simply, but Lin Xingwei doesn't need to, she is in her prime and waiting to get married.
After walking out of the door, Lin Xingwei saw that her mother and she were wearing "parent-child clothes." However, Mrs. Hou was wearing a purple-blue dress, which was darker than Lin Xingwei's clothes. They looked as dignified and simple as mother and daughter.
Luofu hitched up the carriage and waited in front of the main entrance. When he took the mother and daughter out, Cao Ruicen's carriage was already waiting nearby.
Seeing Mrs. Hou and Princess Youning coming out, Cao Ruicen hurriedly got out of the carriage and saluted the two with a smile.
Cao Ruicen smiled so hard that his eyebrows curled up: "I went out to do some shopping. I knew that Mrs. Nanyang Marquis and Lord Youning were going to my house for a banquet, so I waited here specially."
"Mom, I want to ride in a carriage with sister Ruicen." Lin Xingwei asked Mrs. Hou.
It is more comfortable for two little girls to sit together than for the solemn Madam Hou to sit together.
After Mrs. Hou nodded, Lin Xingwei followed Cao Ruicen into the Cao family's carriage.
