MTL - Love Like the Galaxy-Chapter 71

The funeral was held in the He House the next day, and the Lou and He family set a wedding date seven days later. Naturally busy people from the Eighth House and He Family turned their backs on their horses, and the Cheng family also had a 'very' restless life.

First of all, the emperor was very thorough in 'carrying out his father's duties', bypassing the He family on the day of the funeral, and the next day he came to hire the eldest of the royal clan, the eldest prince of Ruyang. Captured from the Three Talents View, the old man dressed in red and green as the main media, the two guests were Yu Hou and Wu Da, the bride price ranged from gold and silver utensils, pearls, jade and brocade to 16 kinds of whole chicken, duck, seafood, and dried goods. Everything.

The emperor wanted to join the guard of honor with half the number of feather forests to have a good time, but he was persuaded by his close ministers. Marquis Yu said, until the day when Ling Budo officially gets married, Your Majesty will still have a chance to show his enthusiasm. General Wu is not good at words. the emperor.

It’s better to buy a mansion with a more spacious front lane than if you can’t even stand at the door today!”

Cheng Shi wiped the sweat from his forehead, thinking to himself: If I knew that the youngest daughter was so lethal, he would have brought her with him when he killed him. It is better to choose a good son-in-law early than today. To a group of guests whose titles are far higher than their own, bow and salute one by one! This is the rhythm of directly upgrading the circle of friends!

The old prince of Ruyang couldn't stand the noise in the front yard, so he quietly slipped to the side corridor to rest, and soon a beautiful young girl seemed to be in a pond The beautiful little koi swam aimlessly over.

"Goodbye, old lord." The little girl's voice was like a young bird, her expression was charming, she respectfully gave the old man a big gift, and then a small group sat down on the side of the corridor. .

King Ruyang saw that she was dressed in ordinary clothes, with half-old summer robes, and in his heart he thought she was the little maid of the Cheng mansion who came out to hide, so he sighed towards the front yard: "Ling Budo has a very holy heart, In the future, such scenes will be inevitable, and I don’t know if your daughter-in-law can handle it.”

The girl looked at the old prince: "...My father Cheng Xiaowei."

King Ruyang: "...How many daughters does your father have?"

"One."

King Ruyang looked at the girl up and down, and smiled: "So you are the future bride Cheng Shaoshang, hahaha, your tired granddaughter cried a lot yesterday, and accidentally let me see already."

Seeing his easy-going demeanor, Shao Shang sighed boldly: "Yuchang County Master is, I have heard people say it. Alas, it is also the honorary status of the County Master, and she is too reserved. If she chases her all the way to the border town, maybe Lord Ling will agree." It's useless to cry when you hide at home, or you can honestly have a crush on you. Since you're already in love, how can you not make some achievements? The first principle of chasing men's collection is 'shameless'.

King Ruyang never thought that such words would come from a little girl with such a look, he looked at Shaoshang again, and smiled: "If it were you, would you go after him? "

Shao Shang did not hesitate: "Of course. If you don't do your best for this kind of lifelong event, you will regret it in the future. If you do your best, you can give up if it doesn't work."

In her life, she despised the kind of coward who "wants in her heart but doesn't take active actions, and only uses expressions to hint and wait for others to help". Either hold back, or fight hard, what is it? She didn't dare to confess to the neighbor Bai Yueguang, so she simply covered up the wind and rain, so that no one could see her intentions, and she would not cause trouble to others.

"You are still young, I don't know how things in this world are so easy." The old prince sighed, "Many times, even if you can think clearly, you can't live through it."

Shao Shang looked up at the blue sky and sighed: "Actually, you can live without thinking." She smiled, turned her head and smiled, "His Royal Highness, you It's so nice, kind, and easy-going. It's as simple and unadorned as the ears of wheat in the field, and it's incomparably precious; it's not necessarily an ordinary person, but it's what the people of the community rely on." She felt that she was really talented.

King Ruyang listened to him a lot, but it was rare to see such a fresh and refined one, he laughed and said: "I'm just an adult cultivating in a Taoist temple, I'm used to being lazy, no Love to talk about breaking the rules."

Shao Shang nodded: "Well, is His Royal Highness also Taoist temple these days?"

"Naturally. The weather is getting hot every day now, and it's better to stay in the city than the Taoist temple."

"Does the county master also live in the Taoist temple with the prince?" Shao Shang looked at a summer chrysanthemum in front of the courtyard.

King Ruyang's expression changed.

"If not, then the county master went to the Taoist temple to cry and let His Royal Highness see it. Otherwise, why would you 'inadvertently' ask His Highness to see you." Shaoshang still looked forward .

King Ruyang stroked his long gray beard, looked at the girl for a long time, and sighed.

Shao Shang was proud of his heart and pretended to be modest: "His Royal Highness and the county master are ancestors and grandchildren, so it is inevitable that one leaf will obstruct one's eyes."

"You little girl, you think I can't see it." The old man laughed, "How old am I, what tricks you girls are doing, I can't see it!"

Shao Shang looked at him suspiciously, thinking that you were so surprised just now.

"What surprises me is that you can explain it in one sentence." The old prince sighed with a smile, "You are bold and have a good mind. It turns out that Ling Budo likes you! Said 'Three Talents', do you know what 'Three Talents' are?"

Shao Shang smiled and said: "I know, it is to keep wealth, love wealth, and get rich by promotion!"

"Nonsense!" King Ruyang laughed angrily.

"Apologize for a crime, don't blame my lord!" The little girl smiled slyly and brightly, holding Bai Shengsheng's small fists to plead guilty again and again, "The three talents are 'heaven, earth, and man'. I know what Lao Xianweng means, everything goes as it is, people cry when they want to cry, laugh when they want to laugh, but it doesn't really matter." Isn't Lao Zhuang so mean.

The old man smiled slightly, thinking that this little girl was bold and sweet, not only interesting but also able to detect people's hearts, the word 'Old Fairy' was very pleasing to him. Thinking of this, his expression suddenly sank, and he said coldly, "Why did you deliberately come to chat with this old man today?"

Shao Shang was startled, and immediately showed confusion: "Old Fairy, you are really amazing, you can see through it at a glance. Well, the little girl wants to ask, how did Mr. Ling talk to you? "

The King of Ruyang hesitated: "This... Zi Sheng has grown up in the palace since he was a child, and he is no different from several princes, just like the son, grandson, and nephew of the old man."

Shao Shang smiled wryly: "Marriage is still a good match. You see, I can't say what he can say, and I may not be able to communicate with people at will. Today I still meet you so easy-going. Dear one."

King Ruyang saw her melancholy expression, and felt pity in his heart: "Xiaowei Cheng is also a hero, you don't have to be ashamed. The old man tells you that your majesty and the queen knew that Zisheng was going to get married. The joy cannot be suppressed, as long as you are sincere, docile and obedient, no one can make things difficult for you."

After persuading him, he looked at the girl and hesitated, "Many people only look at the appearance, but don't know what's inside, alas, I'm afraid that the first person who will embarrass you in the future will be Ling Budo... "

Shao Shang was puzzled, ah, and before he could open his mouth, he saw two beautifully dressed maids approaching, one left and one right to help the old man get up slowly. Before the old prince left, he turned around and smiled at her: "You will understand later."

—The fact is, you don't have to wait, the second day after the employment, Shao Shang felt it, not only her, but the entire Chengfu.

Since the ceremonies have passed, Ling Budo is like the future husband-in-law of ordinary people, frequently visiting the door, and then, just like the Ice Age in ancient times forcibly visited this idle early summer festival, The instant noodles that were just cleaned out were useless.

Ling Budo didn't really show up, but he was a bodyguard of six bodyguards and another team of more than ten people. No matter whether he needed it or not, as long as he went out, two sturdy horses could be replaced. The famous horse and the tall and dignified carriage made of black heavy iron always accompany him as usual—he was raised by the emperor and empress with the honor of princes and nobles, and he was used to these.

He didn't pay attention to dressing up, just a simple single robe and a green bamboo crown, which could be worn on his sturdy body like a lighthouse burning with ancient flames. Classical and beautiful, majestic but not to be taken lightly - he didn't mean it, but how could ordinary people dare to speak frivolously in front of him.

The first day he visited, Cheng Shi and his wife warmly invited him to have dinner together.

A secret guard kneeling behind Ling Budo was about to draw his dagger and stepped forward. Fortunately, Ling Budo raised his hand to stop it early, otherwise the handmaiden's hand would have been chopped off. Cheng Shi was embarrassed and apologized repeatedly.

Ling Budoubt said: "It's okay, it's just a small matter, Uncle Cheng, please don't take heavy responsibility, just leave her alive."

Cheng Shi: ...Actually, I didn't want to take responsibility.

Shao Shang said in surprise: "At your house, the maid will die if she spills the soup."

Ling Budo looked at the girl with her head on the side, with a gentle expression, and smiled: "The law in the palace is strict. It is a capital offense to act carelessly as a guest."

This time it was Mrs. Xiao's turn to be embarrassed, and she said with difficulty: "The family is not strictly controlled, and Lang Jun is a joke."

Shao Shang bypassed Cheng Shao Gong in the middle, and smiled upward from the back: "That's because Zi Sheng is so beautiful, if I were that little maid, I would peek at you."

Ling Budo also leaned back slightly, and the more she passed, Shao Gong smiled at the girl, raised the corners of her eyes like a phoenix tail, and said softly: "I only show you, not others. ."

Cheng Shaogong was expressionless and went directly to see the younger sister. Shao Shang's face flushed red, in fact, she was also a little bit overwhelmed.

After finally serving the dishes, everyone can finally bury their embarrassment in the food.

It was like an icicle in the middle, from the gossip Cheng Shi down to the broken mouth Cheng Shao Gong, who dared to talk.

Among the people, only Mother Cheng behaved as usual and smiled. She has been courting an indifferent and beautiful man for most of her life, and she has long been accustomed to it. Cheng Taigong didn't like her being talkative, and she didn't like her troublesome, so she dealt with it appropriately in front of Ling Budo, because she always smiled and remained silent, not even taking a step. Besides, eating without talking is nothing. Mother Cheng only treats beauty like delicacy. The more she eats, the more she has an appetite. If Cheng Shi didn't stop her, she would have to add a third bowl of rice.

After sending off Ling Budo, everyone in the Cheng family breathed a sigh of relief. Vows to make up for today's family meeting.

"This son-in-law is better at talking than Yao." Cheng Shi rubbed his stomach, his face turning green.

Shao Shang was very gloating at the misfortune, and said leisurely: "I didn't know how happy my father was when he got this marriage, I asked you to break off the marriage, you are still not happy, now I finally know It's not easy."

"What? Break off the marriage?!" Cheng's mother was anxious, roaring like thunder, "You stupid and ridiculous father and daughter, such a good husband and son can't be found even with a torch, you still Pushing three and resisting four, after only a few days of full food, you don’t know how good the smell is! Whoever of you dares to withdraw from the relatives will walk over on the body of the old man!”

Cheng Shi hurriedly said: "No refund, no refund! Yesterday even the dowry was given, and this marriage cannot be refunded! Don't worry, mom!"

Cheng Shaogong muttered unhappily: "It's not necessarily perfect, but she looks better..."

Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Cheng's mother with a violent shout: "Shuzi should be beaten! It's not enough to look good, you want to go to heaven, your boy is to give birth three times again, I can't cast such an appearance!" Cheng Taigong is not as good as Ling Budo, so she gave him a lifetime of food and drink in a low voice.

Shao Shang watched cheerfully, the twin brothers were doubting Cheng's mother's marriage foundation, what a big dog!

"Alright, alright, in the future we will make Ling Budo our ancestors. Don't worry, mom, this son-in-law can't run away! Well, you should go to rest, Hu Dude, what are you doing standing there!" Cheng Shi hurried out to end.

After sending Mother Cheng away, Cheng Shi sighed: "I heard that Ling Budo is here this afternoon, didn't you lead him to introduce him to your brothers? What did you three do? Say it all."

The three Cheng brothers glanced at their parents, then at each other, and then began to complain in turn.

Cheng Yong said: "I showed Mr. Ling the meaning of the new interpretation of the article 'Carving insects and seal carvings, and strong men do not do it'. He pointed out several inaccuracies in his son's writing."

Mrs. Xiao looked at her husband and said solemnly: "Since you have pointed it out, you can make a good change, and it will be of great benefit in the future."

Cheng Yong bowed his head.

Cheng Song said: "My son led Lord Ling to the martial arts field, and then he broke his son's strong bow of 100 stones and pierced through the two sides of your new Atsugi archery target." How can he teach his sister-in-law a lesson when his sister is bullied, hey, he is so worried!

Cheng Shi looked at his wife and said sternly: "Now you know that there is a heaven in the sky, study archery and martial arts well in the future, don't play nonsense anymore."

Cheng Song said dejectedly.

"That, I don't need to say it." Cheng Shaogong looked left and right, pretending not to care, "The child has something else to ask his parents for advice, what..." He smiled bitterly Said, "Father and mother, do we have to set up another engagement banquet?"

As soon as she said this, she and Mrs. Xiao looked at each other with sadness. When he got engaged with the Lou family, Cheng Shi took Lou Yao and introduced them to his old friends one by one during the banquet. Could it be that this time he wants to come back as they are? ! Then he said, 'I'm sorry, my family has a new husband-in-law, everyone knows each other', thinking about that scene makes me ecstatic.

Mrs. Xiao was dissatisfied for the first time: "His Majesty is too anxious to hire!"

"Why don't you do it?" Cheng Shi hesitated, "Just keep it simple."

Mrs. Xiao glared at him: "When I got married with Mrs. Lou, I made a big deal, and when I got to Lord Ling, I kept it simple. If you favor one over the other, you are a vegetarian when you are His Majesty? Well, not only do we have to do it, but also Gotta do it."

"Okay, it will be after the Lou family's marriage." Cheng Shi turned his head and said to his daughter with a smile, "Curly, think about it carefully for my father, and when Ling Buxuan comes to the door again, I will Go to your place to eat. Our elders are here, and you are not easy to talk. How, you are both enlightened and considerate for your father, well, that's it!"

Mrs. Xiao frowned and said, "My lord, I'm afraid this is out of courtesy."

"It's okay to ask someone to accompany you to curl up, what can you do." At this moment, Father Cheng suddenly looked like a philosopher, "In life, you have to make choices all the time. Madam, If you insist on having a meal with Ling Budo in the future, I won't eat with you. You can only pick one of me and Ling Budo."

Mrs. Xiao blushed angrily, the four brothers and sisters almost laughed madly, and hurriedly lowered their heads to hide their expressions.

—Cheng Shi was very pleased that he finally found a suitable way to get along with his son-in-law.
