lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Three Marriage!
On the second day, Long Er was discussing matters with the shopkeepers in the hall of the Long Mansion, and a guy in the home restaurant was desperate to see him.
Long Er went to see him outside the hall, and the man gasped and said loudly, "Second Lord, it’s not good, something has happened. That... that... there was a matchmaker who brought a betrothal gift to hire. The old man thought it belonged to the second master's family, so he accepted it without asking more questions, but later when I read the offer letter, it belonged to someone else's family..."
Long Er frowned and shouted: "What did you say?"
The guy swallowed and said loudly: "Daddy received the wrong offer!"
The wrong offer?
Long's face twitched, can this thing be received wrong?
Know that if a man and a woman make a marriage appointment, if the woman accepts the man's offer letter, even if she agrees to the marriage, the woman's family will send the Geng Tie and the return gift with the man's Nian Geng's character to the man, and the marriage will be firmly established.
Now that Ju Mu'er has accepted the offer and accepted the offer, he has agreed to marry Mu'er to another family. He Long Er and Ju Mu'er agreed and decided not to count.
Things sounded terrible, but Long Er's heart was extremely calm. The more difficult things he encountered, the more calm he became.
Long Er called Chief Tie out of the hall, saying that he was out in a hurry, and asked Chief Tie to greet the shopkeepers first. Then he sent another young man to find Madam Yu, and another young man to prepare the carriage.
Everything is explained. He called Li Ke, and then asked the man: "Is the man still at the wine shop, and Dad Ju is waiting for me, right?" If not, Dad will not be alone. He came, but called a guy who was not familiar with him over to report.
"Yes, yes. Dad is blocking them there."
Long Eryi waved his hand and said to Li Ke: "You take someone to ride a horse first, and see what's going on. Keep everyone there and wait for me to arrive. If someone moves rough, don't be polite to them."
Li Ke agreed and led the people and set off quickly.
Long Er took the guy to the side door to wait for the carriage, and said to him: "Clarify things."
The guy was relieved at this time, and seeing that the Long Er scheduling arrangements were extremely secure, he immediately had a backbone, and his speech became more sharp: "This morning, two matchmakers led the people with big and small The box gift package came here. Because Madam Yu said that after the two days were set up, she sent someone to hire first. When the old man saw the matchmaker came, he thought it was someone from the second master's house, so he went inside without asking more. Please. The two matchmakers didn’t say much, they just kept saying congratulations to the old man. The old man poured tea for them and invited us to take a seat. He hurriedly called us over to greet him. He went back to get the preparations in the morning. Good Geng Tie and return gift."
He said that, Madam Yu rushed to her, the carriage was also ready at this time, and several people got into the car and rushed to the restaurant. The guy met Madam Yu, and briefly talked about the previous things, and then continued: "I don't think I can blame my father about this matter. I stayed with the two women and talked to them. But they didn’t show anything wrong. Later, the old man came out and gave them Geng Tie and the gift in return. He also asked them why they came so soon. Mother Yu just said that today and tomorrow will be a good gift. Day, but he thought it was the day after tomorrow."
Mother Yu nodded: "It is true that today and tomorrow will be good days, but I told Father Ju that I will personally go and confirm the date with him before the next gift. And the gift is important. , I will go with the mother-in-law. I don’t know that today is because there is a pair of satin. I think the mother-in-law’s pick is not good, so I want to go to the shop again, and according to Erye’s horoscope, the future will be better. I I wanted to order something again today and then go and tell Dad Ju to give a gift in the future."
The guy at the wine shop hurriedly said to Long Er: "Second Lord, this is no wonder my father. He told the two women in this way, and the two women did not say that they came for other families. Just talk about how to be good today, the etiquette is complete, and then it’s time for a happy event. They took the old man’s things, stopped drinking the tea, and didn’t talk much. They were leaving. At this time, the old man opened. It’s dumbfounded to look at the job offer that is well wrapped."
"Which one is it?" Long Er asked coldly. Although he had suspicions in his heart, he still had to make sure.
"I listened to my father chasing out and shouting, he was wrong and wrong, why is it the Yun family."
Long Er's eyes narrowed slightly, and the man in the wine shop shrank with fright with his angry and mighty look, and the car fell silent for a while.
After a while, the guy Ai Ai said again: "When the old man saw that the name on the job offer was wrong, he hurriedly chased it out, saying that he had received it wrong, and he wanted to return the gift and ask for the Geng Tie and the return gift. But those two But a woman played a rogue, saying that it was the betrothal gift who wanted to withdraw and then retired. She also said that when Geng Tie returned the gift and went out, there would be no reason to look back. She said that the marriage was settled and that the father waited for the sedan chair to come. The old man argued with them for a long time, and we also went up to help stop people, but the two women came with a few small servants and were not afraid of us. They were reluctant to return things and even shoved them. Get up and rush to leave. The old man was in a hurry and copied a stick to stop them. After a while, the girl also made a noise. The girl knew about it, so she reasoned with them, and the woman heard it. Obediently, Dad and us and those little servants were also pushed away. Later, it was really violent, so Dad called me to invite the second master."
Long Er didn't speak, the man looked at Madam Yu. Mother Yu sighed and didn't know what to say. She has lived such an old age, and she has never heard of such an oolong thing of receiving a wrong offer.
The few people were speechless, and quickly rushed to the hotel restaurant.
At this time, there was no noise outside the shop, only two Dragon Mansion guards were guarding the gate. When they saw Long Er arrived, they hurriedly called out "Second Master".
Long Er held his hand and walked into the shop first.
There were many people in the wine shop, all standing. Two wives in red and five young men in blue stood in the corner, holding red cloth and red paper in their hands in return. Old man Ju flushed, and stared at the people with a stick in his hand with another wine shop assistant. Li Ke and the two guards stood guard on both sides, pushing the wife and them in the corner. And Ju Mu'er stood beside Old Ju, holding her bamboo stick, her face also very bad.
Long Eryi entered the house, Li Ke and several guards called out in unison: "Second Lord."
Father Ju seemed to see the savior, and he almost did not cry: "Second Lord, I received the wrong one, but I didn't let them go, I stopped them."
Long Er nodded, but looked at Ju Muer.
The cloth towel wrapped around her head is gone, and she has hair scattered. Apparently, she didn't get up when these women came, and the noise awakened her. She came out urgently without combing her hair. Long Er walked over and touched her tangled hair with his fingers affectionately: "How come out like this?"
"Second Lord." Ju Muer whispered to him, anxious and imploring.
Long Er didn't respond to her, but said to Madam Yu: "Thank you, Madam, take her down, and come out again when you pack up. I'll wait here."
Mother Yu responded, and quickly came over and took Ju Muer down to comb her hair.
Long Er turned around, pulled a chair, slapped it heavily in front of the two matchmakers, then sat down calmly, staring at them coldly.
All the people in the room are standing, only Long Er is sitting. He is a bit shorter, but he is the most vigorous. The two women were stared stiffly by him, and looked at each other without daring to say a word.
Long Er didn't speak, and the others didn't dare to speak. The room was quiet. Father Ju was actually a little tired. He was wondering if Long Erye was here, and whether his stick should be put down, but when no one else moved, he didn't dare to move.
After a while, Mother Yu came out with Ju Mu'er. She combed her hair and added a cotton outer garment, which looked better. Long Er watched her approach, and said: "Sit down."
Mother Yu hurriedly moved a chair for her, but Ju Muer shook her head instead of sitting. She walked behind Long Er and touched his shoulder. Long Er stretched out his hand to hold her, only feeling that her five fingers were cold, he couldn't help frowning.
Long Er turned his head and glanced at Father Ju. Father Ju knew he was in trouble, and he couldn't help feeling a little guilty when he was seen by the future son-in-law.
Long Erdao: "Father, sit down."
Papa Ju glanced at his daughter, and if the daughter is standing, then he is also standing. He shook his head and did not sit down, and Long Er ignored him.
Long Er turned his eyes back to the two women, stared at them, and uttered three words: "Hand it over."
These three words are very light, but they are so cold that the two women tremble. They glanced at each other, hesitated for a long time, one of them tremblingly put a red paper envelope on the side table. The other waved his hand and asked the servants to put the woman's return gift on the table.
Father Ju rushed forward with two strides, grabbed the paper seal and returned, opened it and looked at it seriously, and exclaimed, "This is the Geng Tie I prepared." He looked at Long Er in surprise, and he chased him with the stick. For things that don't come back, Erye will be done with three words, and sure enough, people are still different from people.
Long Er didn't look back at him. He stared at the two women, but stretched out his hand to Old Man Ju: "Where are they?"
"Huh?" Father Ju, who was still in ecstasy, didn't react.
"Appointment letter and gift letter."
"Oh oh." Father Ju quickly took it out, and rushed over to give it to the two women.
Long Er said: "Give it to me."
Father Ju was taken aback, but he turned around obediently and gave Long Er the offer letter.
Long Er opened it and looked at it seriously. He sneered when he saw the name "Yun Qingxian". When he smiled like this, the women became even more stiff.
Long Er looked up at them and asked softly: "Do you know who I am?"
The two women nodded sharply.
"Very good." Long Er said slowly, "So you can have an explanation when you go back." After he said, he raised his hand to tear up the letter of appointment and shattered it, and threw his hand on the two women. before.
The women paled in shock.
A woman bit her scalp and said: "Mrs. Yun said that it was the marriage that the girl Ju had agreed to herself. We also take people's money to do things. The gifts and appointments are all rules and regulations." They were also afraid. After getting into trouble, I quickly got rid of the relationship.
"I didn't." Ju Muer said, her hand hanging beside her clenched into a fist, "I didn't allow her."
"It wasn't that Mrs. Yun personally came to talk to Mrs. Yun, and then did the girl give her permission? If not, Mrs. Yun and Mrs. Yun would not be so arrogant." The woman said, watching carefully. One glance at Long Er.
Ju Muer gritted her teeth and said: "She has been here, but I didn't allow it."
Father Ju also said: "The Lord Yun had been here a few days ago, but Mu'er was injured to recuperate. I didn't let him see him. He didn't say anything at the time. Why did you come out of this stall?"
The mother-in-law was still waiting to speak, but Long Er glanced sideways and forced her words back abruptly. Long Erdao: "It doesn't matter who came, and it doesn't matter whether Muer was allowed or not, why didn't you ask, did I allow it?"
The two women suddenly bowed their heads and dared not speak again.
"Isn’t that the servant of the Criminal Ministry, Yun Qing Xianyun? Who is his father-in-law? Oh, it’s Lord Ding Shangshu Ding. Who else is there for that bunch of relatives, senior officials and faction brothers? Ding Shangshu’s father-in-law, former Shoufu Master Yang? It seems that there are also Liu Yushi, Zuo Shaoqing, Sima Tongzheng." Long Eryue said the colder, "I can still recite the name of twenty or so, but you can't listen to it. Understand."
The two women shrank back so hard that they didn't dare to look up.
"It's just..." Long Er continued, "Don't say that these officials are officials, even when they arrive in front of the emperor, I have to ask the last question carefully. I am happy with Muer and we are mutually determined. For life, the elders of the two families talked about marriage in detail and bothered to make trouble. Then how could the Yun family do such sordid things to cheat and grab the marriage?"
The charge is so serious that a woman wanted to argue again, but she opened her mouth, but did not dare to say a word.
Long Er patted the back of Ju Mu'er's hand, and said, "Mu'er, the women said that you allowed Mrs. Yun to marry her as a concubine. But I also said, I personally made an appointment with you, and you will marry my Long’s family to be my wife. Since we are different, you might as well make it clear in front of everyone, who are you going to marry?"
The women quickly raised their heads and glanced at Ju Mu'er. What the second master Long said was different. In fact, they have no words at all. Who dares to speak now? He also said so badly, one is a concubine and the other is the wife of the house, which is obviously a sarcasm. The women naturally knew how Ju Muer would respond.
Sure enough, Muer responded: "I want to marry the second master."
Long Erdao: "The voice is so small, the women's ears are not very good, I am afraid that they will not be able to hear clearly, can you speak louder?"
Ju Muer bit her lip and couldn't help leaning against Long Er, raising her voice and saying again: "I want to marry the second master."
Long Er nodded in satisfaction and asked the two women: "Can you hear me clearly?"
"I heard you clearly, I heard you clearly." The women nodded and bowed.
"Then, there will be no more misunderstandings, saying that my family Muer allowed the Yun family's marriage, right?"
"No more, no more."
"Very good." Long Er nodded. He turned his head to look at the red cloth bags and large boxes on the table, and asked Father Ju, "Is this what they brought?"
Papa Ju should "yes".
Long Er asked again: "Is it all here?"
Papa Ju should "yes" again.
Long Er waved his hand: "Throw them all out and smashed them."
Father Ju was taken aback, did he ask him to smash it? Before he could react, the guards of the Long Mansion had already stepped forward, took those things and went out, smashing them with a crackle.
Old man Ju scratched his head. The first reaction was wasteful, and the second reaction was that they both managed to clean up? The front of the shop must also be kept neat and clean.
Long Er didn't know that Old Man Ju wanted to switch to the other side completely. He was relieved by the sound of smashing things.
He smiled, looked at the two wives coldly, and glanced at the few companions, then adjusted his sleeves, and slowly said: "That’s it, you can go back and talk to that cloud The government has replied."
The women's faces were pale, and they only dared to nod their heads.
Long Er said again: "But, I still have something to ask you to bring me." He looked around and saw that all those people were listening carefully, so he smiled, "Please help me The matchmakers in the whole city have told me that this girl who lives in the restaurant in the south of the city is my daughter-in-law and my second wife in the Long Mansion. Whoever eats a dog will dare to help other people to ask for a kiss and send things. Send it here, I'll let him go around. If you don't want to stay in this city, just come and try."
As soon as he said this, the two women knelt down with a plop, kowtow and begged for mercy. They said that Mrs. Yun family had called them earlier and asked them to prepare three books and six ceremonies. They said that Miss Ju agreed to the marriage, and Master Yun knew about it and gave them a reward. It was originally negotiated that they were prepared a year ago and gave a gift later in the year, but recently it has been spreading that it is the Dragon Mansion who is going to give a gift to hire. Then Mrs. Yun said, let them settle the marriage anyway. They had collected money early, and did not dare to offend the Yun family, so they thought that they might as well be hired first. If they received the gift of someone, they decided to kiss the other family. They were dizzy for a while. Don't dare anymore.
They were chirping and begging for mercy, but Long Er didn't want to listen. He waved his hand and yelled: "Go away."
The women immediately lost their voice, looked at each other, and then quickly ran away with the servants.
Father Ju finally breathed a sigh of relief at this time. He laughed and wanted to say thank you to Long Er. He just moved up, but when he saw Long Er turned his head and said to Ju Muer: "You come with me. "
Ju Muer didn't dare to say no, and Ren Longer obediently took her hand and walked toward her backyard.
At this moment, her heart is mixed, and she is happy that Long Er has settled this oolong affair, but also worried that her marriage with Long Er will change. By now, Long Er knew her intention to beg Long Er.
If she were him, she would be extremely angry at this time. After all, she was using him in the whole thing. She was forced to marry. She needed a strong backing and a husband who could contend with Yun Mansion. In order to achieve her goal, she even threatened him with the grievances of Shopkeeper Lu.
Ju Muer feels that her actions are really mean and shameless. If he scolded her now, told her that he would not marry her, and announced that the marriage was cancelled, she would definitely not say anything. She felt that she had no face to ask him for anything.
Long Er took her all the way to her room. He sat down, but did not speak. Ju Muer stood by and dared not make a sound. After a while, Long Er asked Ju Muer to pour him a cup of tea.
This time, Ju Muer didn't bother about it anymore, didn't make fun of it, and just quietly poured a cup of tea for Long Er quickly.
Long Er picked up the cup, drank it slowly, and looked at Ju Muer, who was standing aside nervously, and ordered another cup. Ju Mu'er touched the cup and filled him up again.
Long Er didn't drink this time, only asked: "Why don't you ask me if I drink it?"
"Second Lord, is the tea good?"
"Not bad."
Ju Muer blinked, feeling a little warm in his eyes.
"Second Lord, can I give you a shoulder punch?"
"Okay." Long Er answered quickly, took her hand and placed it on his shoulder.
Ju Muer seriously beat him, beat him for a while, and gave him a pinch again. His shoulders are strong, and it is actually quite hard to pinch, Ju Muer pinched, feeling unspeakable sadness in his heart. While spitting on herself, she still longed to marry him. She longed for his protection.
At the beginning, she plucked up the courage to ask for a kiss because she happened to have such an opportunity. She felt that it was God’s arrangement. Otherwise, how could something like that happen at that time? He gave her a reason and a bargaining chip. So she became her husband-in-law candidate? His temperament is a bit bad, he loves rectifying people too much, but she just trusts him for no reason.
She knows that he will not hurt her, not only will he not hurt her, but after this period of time, she also knows that he can protect her, and that he is willing to protect her.
Maybe there is no chance, but she really wants to marry him now.
Ju Muer endured the soreness in her eyes, maybe it was the last time she pinched his shoulders, she pinched very seriously.
Long Er suddenly shook her hand backhand. Ju Muer wanted to call him, but she found her throat was choking and she couldn't call it out.
At this time, she heard Long Er asking: "How did she force you?"
Ju Muer closed her eyes, cleared her throat, and finally could say: "She told my father to take care of her body." He knew it, and Ju Muer felt despair infiltrating her little by little In my heart.
