It snowed in the evening, not heavy, and stopped after a while.
Lin Yu walked through the corridor and walked to the outside of Bao'an Garden.
Lin Yunyan knew he was coming, so she hurried out to greet him and said with a smile: "Wan Yue just warmed some wine."
Lin Yu smiled.
Entering the yard, he did not enter the house, but stood under the tree.
"I just came here to see you." Lin Yu said, the cold wind blew in his face, making his voice a little hoarse.
Lin Yunyan looked up at her father.
The relationship between father and daughter is not as close as that between mother and daughter, but she knows in her heart that her father loves and cherishes her.
She was about to leave the government, and her father was reluctant to leave her, but he also gave her his best wishes.
"I'm not marrying far away," Lin Yunyan said softly, "I'm only half a city away."
Lin Yu laughed again when he heard this.
Raising his hand and gently rubbing his daughter's head, as if she was still young, Lin Yu said: "When Yun Jing and Yun Fang come over to accompany you later, you sisters can talk. I won't drink anymore. Just drink as much as you can."
What? Let Xu Jian come and have a drink with me on the day I return home."
Lin Yunyan rolled her eyes and said: "You can't drink him. You haven't drank since the Chinese New Year."
Lin Yu couldn't laugh or cry.
The emotions that were originally in my heart were quickly dissipated.
However, he is also the father-in-law of Mount Tai. No matter how good Xu Jian is at drinking, what can he do?
"If you can't drink it," Lin Yu joked, "then ask him to bring candied haws."
Speaking of candied haws, Lin Yunyan naturally thought of the scene in the backyard of Taohe Zhai, where the three of them were sitting at a table, each making a bunch of candied haws.
Speaking of which, it's really funny.
Lin Yu returned to teasing, and also said a few words of explanation: "It is said that the marriage was arranged by the Holy Spirit, but we all know that this marriage is your own choice and choice.
For people of our status, marrying someone we are satisfied with is not difficult, but it is not easy either.
Yun Yan, since you have this kind of fate with him, then cherish it more.
I'll be relieved if you live well."
Lin Yunyan looked at her father, her eyes sore. She pursed her lips and nodded heavily.
After all, it was freezing cold, so Lin Yu did not let Lin Yunyan blow the cold wind all the time. He asked her to go back to the house first, and walked slowly and slowly to the front yard along the way she came.
The snow has stopped long ago, the clouds are still heavy, and the sky is not completely dark, but if you look up, you can tell that there will be no moon or stars tonight.
This corridor connected Zai Shou Yuan. Lin Yu walked around and could hear the voices of people talking and laughing in the courtyard.
The old lady was looking forward to tomorrow's wedding and was very excited.
This is not surprising either.
Ever since Lin Lang left the cabinet, there has been no red event in the government.
Lin Yu did not bother Mr. Duan and walked straight to the study.
The room was warm, so he warmed his hands by the charcoal basin, then walked to the desk and pulled out a scroll from the painting vat.
There are traces of friction on the string, indicating that the painting has been opened frequently.
On the scroll, the young woman has smiling eyes, is gentle and tranquil, and if you look closely, you will see that her facial features are very similar to Lin Yunyan's.
His fingers brushed over the figure in the painting. This was a portrait of Shen Yun painted by Lin Yu himself.
"Ayun," he whispered for a long time, "our Yun Yan will get married tomorrow."
In Bao'an Garden, Lin Yunjing and Lin Yunfang arrived one after another.
Wan Yue spread a thick quilt on the Arhat's bed and let the three sisters go and make trouble.
Everyone said that they were going to cry before getting married, but the three of them looked at me and I looked at you, but none of them cried. Instead, they laughed.
In the end, Lin Yunfang said a few words that meant "I can't bear to leave", and then she just smiled again.
When sisters get along, there will always be endless things to talk about.
After all, getting married is a kind of separation. Gradually, it is inevitable that some childhood memories will be mentioned.
It all happened when you were six and I was three. Lin Yunfang is the youngest. He can’t remember the details even if he raises his head. Lin Yunyan has two lifetimes stacked together. It’s been too long and I can’t think clearly. Only Lin Yunjing is this person. The eldest sister has a good memory and is attentive, and she talks a lot.
The night is getting darker.
Lin Yunfang, who loved the excitement the most, was the first to feel sleepy.
She tilted her head and leaned against Lin Yunyan, and her speech became more straightforward: "Second sister, I think you are so happy. You are happy from the bottom of your heart."
"Yes," Lin Yunyan said with a smile, "I'm very happy."
Lin Yunfang asked again: "Where is the eldest sister? Will the eldest sister be happy when she gets married?"
Lin Yunjing was stunned for a moment.
She has a more reserved temperament and doesn't like to express these things originally, but there is a red Double Happiness sticker on the window and a red wedding dress hanging on the hanger. Thinking of what Lin Yunyan said, her emotions are naturally infected.
"I will be happy," she smiled shyly, "I am satisfied with the current marriage, so I will definitely marry happily."
Lin Yunfang laughed when she heard this. She laughed heartily, but because of her sleepiness, she looked more innocent.
"What about me?" She said vaguely, words that she would not say casually on weekdays, "Can I have a satisfactory marriage?"
She is the youngest.
All the sisters got married within six months, leaving only her.
As long as she can remember, she has been the tail behind her sisters. She has never been "alone".
These days, she is happy that her sisters have found husbands, but she is also worried about the unseen future.
Especially last year, she suffered such a "blow-up" in friendship. Not only did she stop eating due to choking, but she also became more and more dependent on her sisters.
Lin Yunyan and Lin Yunjing exchanged a look.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Will it make you unsatisfied in your marriage?"
"You have two brothers-in-law. Let them stop outside our house when the time comes. Don't let matchmakers come to our house if you are not a suitable young master."
"The eldest brother-in-law is a member of the Xinke Hanlin Academy, and the second brother-in-law is a general." Lin Yunfang covered her lips and yawned, "That's bad, no one can come..."
After she finished speaking, she couldn't resist the sleepiness and fell asleep with her eyes closed.
Lin Yunjing straightened the quilt for her and teased Lin Yunyan softly: "It's broken, no one comes to the door, and I can't get married."
Lin Yunyan laughed silently, laughed for a while, and then whispered: "There must be someone who can come in."
Her former third brother-in-law, the grand-nephew of her grandmother's mother's family, was able to come in through the gate with such swagger that she was related to him.
This is a good marriage.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Once again, she must change the bad past and insist on holding on to the good things that should exist.
After the twelfth lunar month, she would have to prepare for the new year. Then she would mention it to her grandmother and find a way to get her third brother-in-law to come to Beijing.
Lin Yunjing thought that she would have to get up early tomorrow, so she stopped talking and urged Lin Yunyan to go to bed.
The lamp was blown out and the room became dark.
Lin Yunfang beside her was already asleep, breathing softly.
Lin Yunyan's sleepiness was very light, and she couldn't help but think of Xu Jian.
It should be said that during these days, when she had free time, it was difficult for her not to think of Xu Jian.
After realizing that she liked Xu Jian more than she expected, this realization also led her to sort out their years of getting along and supporting each other.
Putting aside those cruel and painful experiences, only the daily bits and pieces were left, which were very small. If she didn't try so hard to recall, she might not be able to remember them. Even some fragments were put together, and she was not sure whether she could remember them.
wrong.
But she liked those memories.
Even though it might have gone wrong, it was what she wanted deep down in her heart, so she was able to put that scene together.
When she looked back at the memories she had pieced together, she could feel many emotions that she had never discovered or thought about at the time.
At this moment, Lin Yunyan thought of the fireflies in the mountains.
It was difficult at that time, otherwise I would not have walked the mountain road at night.
With a lot of worries on his mind, he pushed his wheelchair through the mountain path, but inadvertently, he and Xu Jian saw tiny bits of light.
At that time, I didn't have time to appreciate it, nor was I in the mood to appreciate it, but the scene was beautiful after all, and it was so deeply engraved in my mind.
Now that I think about it, she actually stopped at that moment.
She stared at the whole field of fireflies for a moment, fearing to disturb them, so she stopped her already light steps.
She only paused for a short while, and then heard Xu Jian call "Ayan".
She regarded the voice as a reminder and an urging. After she came to her senses, she pushed the wheelchair forward.
They walked into the fireflies, and the fireflies danced out of the way. When they walked out of that section of the road, she turned around and the fireflies dispersed.
But...
Lin Yunyan's eyelashes blinked.
Did Xu Jian really want to rush her at that time?
When she turned back to reconstruct the scene, she remembered that Xu Jian was leaning sideways, and his hand was on her hand holding the wheelchair, and his warm fingers melted away the coolness of the night dew in the mountains.
, his voice is soft and gentle...
He seemed to be admiring the fireflies.
And when they were in it, the stars were about to disperse, and one or two stopped on Xu Jian's shoulders.
It's weak, but also touching.
Lin Yunyan couldn't tell whether it was yes or no, but she thought she could give Xu Jian an answer.
Suddenly, she remembered that it was not the first time she and Xu Jian had seen fireflies flying.
When they were still in the capital, there was such a scene on summer nights in the back garden of Fu Guogong's Mansion.
There are not as many as in the mountains, but they are rare in Beijing.
When Lin Yunyan discovered it, she lamented to Xu Jian, who attributed it to "there are many trees but few flowers in the Duke's Mansion".
She pushed Xu Jian to see her without any help or a lantern. When she came back, she tripped and hit her feet on the wheelchair, causing her to scream in pain. Finally, Xu Jian took some medicinal oil and gave it to her carefully.
rub.
It was just a little bruise, and even though it was rubbed away, it didn't affect her ability to move around. But she was lazy and cowardly, so she lay on the couch for three days and couldn't move any more than Xu Jian, the one who was really injured.
Yes.
At that time, Xu Jian had a cooler temper. With his current temper, he would most likely say something sinister.
But no matter what kind of temper Xu Jian is, he is the one she is familiar with, the one she trusts, the one she likes, and the one she can't let go of.
Spring, summer, autumn and winter, year after year, all that is accumulated is spring rain.
Lin Yunyan fell asleep in her memories.
In the dream, there are still so many stars.
She could hear her own heartbeat, and she knew that her emotions were gradually surging in her heartbeat. She opened her eyes when the sky turned pale, curled her fingers, and calmed her breathing.
When Wan Yue came to call her, Lin Yunyan sat up.
Lin Yunjing and Lin Yunfang also woke up. Although they were sleepy, they were more excited.
Lin Yunyan took the time to freshen up, packed up and went to the ancestral hall.
Lin Yu was already waiting for her.
When the father and daughter met, they didn't say any greetings, they just smiled.
Lin Yunyan kowtowed to her ancestors and then went to the women's shrine to pay her respects. This time, she looked at her mother's tablet for a long time.
My father said that my mother must be watching her from heaven.
Lin Yunyan believed it.
Her memory of her mother is shallow but profound, but many of the things she can grasp today come from her mother's blessing.
Her position as princess, the empress dowager's preference, and the emperor's turning a blind eye to all matters big and small were all just because she was Shen Yun's daughter.
But she thought her mother might have regrets.
Li Shao, whose mother risked her life to save her, eventually caused her and Xu Jian to be buried in the fire.
Lin Yunyan took a deep breath and thought to herself that she had to live up to her expectations and not make her mother regret it again.
When leaving the ancestral hall, she held the imperial edict conferring marriage.
It's already dawn.
Back at Bao'an Garden, Lin Yunyan had just sat down and drank some hot tea when laughter and laughter came from outside.
She put on her wedding dress while laughing, and Mrs. Chen combed her hair.
The congratulatory speech was already memorized by heart, but Mrs. Chen choked up again, her eyes were red, and the ladies who were anxious to watch the ceremony made fun of her to prevent her from crying on her happy day.
The Jin family also arrived.
Jinning was taller than at the beginning of the year and ran faster. He rushed in with two round legs, but he was still very flexible. He bypassed the tables, stools and so many people, and jumped directly into Lin Yunyan's arms.
She raised her head, her big eyes were gleaming, and she said in a childish voice, "Sister Yun Yan is so beautiful."
Someone teased her: "The brides are all beautiful."
Jinning said: "Sister Yun Yan is the most beautiful."
Children's words are crisp and lively.
Mrs. Chen couldn't help but laugh. This smile suppressed all those emotional emotions.
She pulled up Lin Yunyan's long hair, combed it carefully, put on the phoenix crown, and adjusted it bit by bit to ensure it was perfect.
After that, she had to go forward again.
As the person in charge of Uncle Chengyi's house, she can't stay in Bao'an Garden all the time. There are so many guests and so many things waiting for her today.
There is no shortage of people around Lin Yunyan, and the bride is always the center of the day.
She talked to her sisters and listened to the auspicious words from relatives and friends who were watching the ceremony. She slept little last night, but she was always in good spirits.
No matter how many people came in or out, no amount of charcoal pots could hold back the heat, but Lin Yunyan didn't feel cold. There was a fire in her heart, burning hot.
When the time came, Lin Yunyan went to Zaishouyuan first.
Little Mrs. Duan held her hand tightly. For a moment, she couldn't say anything straight, and she couldn't say anything about the situation. She just pursed her lips and looked at her, with thousands of words in her eyes.
"It's almost here, the auspicious time is coming soon."
"Go ahead and see if the wedding team has arrived?"
"Come, come, the groom has arrived at the entrance of the alley!"
"Everyone blocking the door is ready and gearing up."
News is coming in one after another, making people look forward to it.
Lin Yunyan also turned to look out the window.
The sun had already risen, and when it came in through the window lattice, it was scattered by the red double happiness, and became more and more mottled, just like the stars in her memory.
She waited for her wedding in this patch of dotted fireflies.
