Chapter 41: Wei Ruolan
Lin Song didn't know what Prince Zhongshun thought.
But I knew that Shi Yonghuai was really a talkative person. He became interested in talking to him from the beginning. From ancient times to the present, he talked about everything.
Lin Song chatted with him for a long time before they parted.
Shi Yonghuai held Lin Song's shoulder and kept talking: "I didn't expect this banquet to end so quickly. Zi Song, when will you come to my house? We can chat for three days and three nights."
"I'm afraid it's too abrupt." Lin Song laughed.
Shi Yonghuai thought of Lin Song and Xiang Yun's marriage, and smiled and said, "That's true." After saying that, he mentioned other things.
The female guests all had to gather together when it was time to leave.
Daiyu and Shi Xiangyun walked closest, while the girls from the Shi family were farther away, but they were all laughing and chatting together. Princess Nan'an's youngest daughter was also chatting and laughing with them. This little daughter was even more delicate than Daiyu before.
Among the crowd, it is like a glass lamp with thin ice. It does not need to be blown by the wind. It will break by itself over time.
Several ladies walked behind, watching a group of little girls laughing and joking with each other.
Lin Song and Shi Yonghuai stood beside the carriage with their hands down, not daring to speak rashly. When everyone got closer, Fang bowed their hands to greet them one by one.
Princess Nan'an let Lin Song go over. She held Lin Song's shoulder and looked up and down, smiling:
"Looking at his stature, I'm afraid some people will believe him if he says he's weak." After that, he pulled Daiyu over and said:
"They don't look like siblings, they are clearly brothers."
Daiyu covered her mouth and smiled.
Lin Song also smiled and said: "I am one year younger."
Princess Nan'an looked at it carefully and said with a smile: "The more I look at it, the better it seems to me. He looks good, and he looks smart. He will definitely be able to study with peace of mind. Your family will definitely have another Tanhua."
After saying that, she asked the maid to take out the gold and silver coins such as "The Number One Scholar" from her purse. She put it in Lin Song's hand and said:
"Good boy, I didn't bring anything good, so don't take it personally."
"The elder has given me a gift, and Zi Song is very grateful." Lin Song said, thanking him again and again, which earned Princess Nan'an a burst of praise.
Seeing this, Mrs. Shi Jia even said: "Your true son will be just as good if he is raised by the concubine."
Princess Nan'an still looked at Lin Song and said, "The competition is over." Then she looked at Shi Yonghuai and smiled again:
"Whether it's Yonghuai or not, everything is good."
After saying that, she took Daiyu's hand again and looked up and down. Daiyu lowered her head shyly, and she also smiled and said: "Good boy, don't be shy. It won't hurt anyone who sees you."
As he spoke, he sighed for a while and talked to everyone for a while before leaving.
Wait for everyone to turn around.
Halfway through the carriage, Su suddenly said in the carriage: "Stop."
The carriage stopped, and Lin Song, who was riding a horse and walking slowly with the carriage, also stopped, looked at the carriage and asked:
"Madam, what's the matter?"
"Song'er, please come in." Su's expression was solemn and her voice was serious.
Lin Song hurriedly got off his horse and entered the sedan. As soon as he entered, he heard Su said:
"I see that Princess Nan'an has a crush on Yu'er."
"It's impossible, don't worry too much." Lin Song said quickly, seeing Daiyu also frowning.
Lin Song went on to say: "I also know a little bit about Nan'an Prince's Mansion, but there are no boys of the right age in their family. The one who is closest in age to my sister is also five years older than her."
"It's not Nan'an Prince's Palace." Mrs. Su sighed, remembering what Princess Nan'an had said before Lin Song came, and continued:
"He's her nephew, his name is Wei Ruolan, and he's the right age. I followed their hands and looked at them from a distance, and they looked really good. From what they said, he's also a good boy who can do both literature and martial arts.
, the family foundation is also good, and both brothers are good. My mother-in-law went there again last year..."
Lin Song couldn't listen, and his face slowly darkened.
Wei Ruolan, he knows.
He has read the Gengchen version, and the summary at the end of the chapter in the Gengchen version says: "The unicorn worn by Ruolan in Shepu in the following dozens of chapters is exactly the same as the unicorn. The outline lies in this chapter, and the so-called grass snake and gray line are thousands of miles away.
outside."
Therefore, like most people, he believed that the talented and beautiful man in Shi Xiangyun's judgment was none other than Wei Ruolan.
The more he believes that this 'talented and handsome man' Wei Ruolan is not a good match.
Just as she was thinking about it, Daiyu said, "I won't marry him."
"Well said." Lin Song immediately clapped his hands and said with a smile, "How old is your sister? Why are you so anxious?"
"You are still one year younger." Su Shi sighed softly.
"Men are afraid of getting into the wrong profession, and women are afraid of marrying the wrong man. If I marry the wrong man, I can divorce and remarry, or marry someone to my liking. If she marries the wrong woman, her life will be ruined. How can she be better than me?" Thinking of marrying the wrong man, he is a wolf.
, I went to Huangliang. Lin Song waved his hands repeatedly and said:
"This matter must not be rushed. There are so many men in the capital, so just pick slowly."
Hearing this, Mrs. Su sighed: "That is indeed a good boy."
"Good luck, he and Feng Ziying are the first two to fail." Lin Song refused more simply.
Su Shi glanced at Daiyu, who looked away shyly and ignored them.
Lin Song smiled and did not continue.
The carriage slowly drove into Lin's house.
Lin Song returned to his White Jade Pavilion alone, and Xier Xiangling greeted them one after another. Lin Song smiled and went in with them. As soon as he entered, he saw a thick letter on the table.
When I opened it, I saw that it was all written by Jia Huan.
He was so devoted to the performance of Journey to the West that Jia Cong and Jia Lan were not interested in studying and rewrote Journey to the West together.
Now that it has been adapted to "The Three Treasures Don't Forget the Origin, The Four Saints Test the Zen Heart", Lin Song could only applaud their progress. He read it roughly and revised it a little. After finishing it, he asked Xi'er:
"How are the costumes going?"
"Brother, I'm still asking." When Xi'er heard the question, she couldn't help but laugh. She stood up and took out a pig-faced mask. Holding the mask, she said:
"I asked them to follow the picture you drew and try every possible means to make it. They carved it out with wooden boards. But what does it look like?"
Lin Song took it and took a look.
It was indeed Zhu Bajie's face in his impression, and it was still painted. But the person who made it was lazy and made the mask into a pig face with big ears. It couldn't be worn on the head at all.
Lin Song looked at the board and thought that if the mask was made of wood, his scalp would be broken off after one performance. If it was hot, Lin Song thought about it and said with a smile:
"Xi'er, how about you follow this picture and make a pig-headed hat that can be worn around your neck. You don't need to have a pig's nose. It only has two pig ears to highlight the fact that it is Zhu Bajie. That's enough."
As Lin Song spoke, he drew a black hat on the paper. The brim was decorated with a gold hoop. A man with a pig nose wore a hat with pig ears as big as cattail fans on both sides. He was carrying a rake.
, wearing a short black monk's robe, exposing his big belly.
Xi'er looked at it and said with a smile: "It's not difficult to make it. The difficult thing is that it won't look like a real ear, it just looks similar."
"The resemblance is enough." Lin Song said with a smile.
Xi'er said: "Then we can do it slowly and playfully. If it doesn't look right, brother can't blame us."
"Of course not." Lin Song said. He put the letter aside, took out his book, and memorized it while copying it.
This is his homework for this month.
After finishing copying, it was getting dark. Lin Song took his homework and went to the study room where Lin Ruhai was.
Lin Ruhai was about to eat when he heard someone reported that Lin Song was coming, so he asked someone to remove the food. Before Lin Song saluted, he said:
"Sit down."
Lin Song sat down.
Just when she was about to speak, Lin Ruhai said again: "I already know about Wei Ruolan's matter. Yu'er is the best. The marriage is not urgent. I have informed Baolinghou and we will discuss it after Yu'er and the hairpin queen."
Lin Song just put his homework on the table and gave it to Lin Ruhai to check. He read it over and nodded with satisfaction.
He then said: "Today I met Prince Zhongshun."
"Don't pay attention to the people who are loyal to the palace." Lin Ruhai sneered and said, "Just treat them as dead."
"Well, the kid really didn't pay much attention to him. He just had a fight."
"No..." Lin Ruhai, who was casually flipping through Lin Song's homework, suddenly clenched the paper in his hand, and his voice instantly became eight degrees colder:
Chapter completed!
