Dress to be a celebrity

As the sky was getting darker, Huan Ling got up and lit a few more candles, which illuminated the room as brightly as day, and the candlelight penetrated to the outside of the courtyard, casting deep shadows of the carved wooden windows on the ground.However, there were no lights in the courtyard, and the candle light could not be seen in the farther place, and it was extended into a deep darkness.

The future of this family is the same, only the place where Huan Ling's candle light shines is slightly bright, and the sky is full of darkness any farther away.

How regretful Huan Ling was in his heart for not persuading his grandfather and sister, Huan Ge only felt more heartbroken and regretful.His grandson at least had a clear conscience, which he didn't even dare to ask himself.When I first married my granddaughter, I only thought about "marrying a talented young man, how can I marry a young prince", but now it is said by outsiders, it is like the person who robs the ear and steals the bell, who was caught on the spot and ripped off the cotton in the ear, only to know his past destiny How conspicuous is the act of clinging to and selling grandchildren for power, and how stupid and ridiculous in the eyes of others.

At this time, he couldn't even laugh, so he could only swallow his bitterness, sat in the hall that had already been tidied up, and asked, "Has Mr. Song come out? Are you going to Brother Ling?" Watch outside the children's courtyard, and when he comes out, bring him, no, invite him to come to me."

His grandson had told him that the Song Dynasty had a good character, but he always refused to believe it. He blindly judged others by himself, suspecting that others were looking at the power of his hometown; Who dares to come and see him?

On the contrary, this young man who had an old grudge with his family because of their marriage, and who was treated coldly by Huan Ling because of his marriage, came here regardless of the previous suspicions.

He also didn't dare to compare his grandson to such stunning beauties as Long Yangjun, Zhou Xiaoshi, Han Zigao, etc., because people would be overwhelmed by his beauty, regardless of his future.Song Shi took the initiative to visit them at this time, so it can be seen that he only remembers kindness and does not care about benefits...

Sure enough, it was different from him.

Huan Ge got up sadly, straightened his clothes, walked outside the door to greet Song Shi who was led in by his family, and said "thank you" face to face.

Thank him for being able to come to see them at this time, thank him for not caring about the matter of retiring the engagement, thank him for giving up his own reputation and future to defend their grandparents at court, thank him...

As a grandfather, he first thanked him sincerely on behalf of his grandson, and begged him to take care of his grandson in the future, so that he would not easily abandon him because of marriage.

Mr. Huan sighed: "My grandson follows me in temperament. He is very stubborn and sometimes unreasonable, but you can learn from the sun and the moon with your devotion to Mr. Song. The old things are all the old man's fault. Fortunately, Huan Ling stopped him." , it’s not enough to cause a catastrophe, as long as you hate or scold me, the old man is willing to bear it, but my unworthy grandson..."

He raised his eyes to look at his grandson's courtyard, and arched his hands towards Song Shi: "Sir Song, the three leaders in the world are rare in ancient and modern times, and the future must be prosperous in the future. I will entrust my unworthy grandson to you."

Song Shi couldn't accept the old man's great gift, so he hurried forward to support his arm, put one hand on his back, forcefully pushed Mr. Huan's back up, and dragged and hugged him back to the chair. After pressing it firmly, I cupped my hands and replied: "Don't worry, old man, I am not the kind of person who waits for chaos and abandonment, and my family does not seek to cling to any powerful person. To be honest, Huan Ling entered my family's ancestral hall early, and paid homage to the ancestors. It's already mine."

He said it very sincerely, it was in line with what Elder Huan Ge wanted, but for some reason, Elder Huan Ge felt even more sour in his heart, even more uncomfortable than before Yuanniang married into the palace.

Song Shi didn't have a clairvoyant eye either, so he didn't know that his heart was sore.In order to reassure the old man, let him leave Beijing without worries, and called "Grandfather" on the spot, saying: "My parents, brothers and sisters-in-law have also recognized this marriage, and I will take good care of Brother Huan in the future." , don’t teach grandpa to worry in his hometown.”

Huan's grandfather said in shock: "You, your family..."

Song Shi thought of his parents' open-minded reaction, and compared Huan Ge, who wanted to lock him back in the closet after Huan Ling came out, couldn't help being a little proud, and nodded with a smile.He also thought about whether to offer tea to his grandfather when he formally met his in-laws, and then remembered that the tea was handed by his sister-in-law when they entered the door, so he put his hand firmly in his sleeve.

It's all about confession, and was about to say goodbye, but there was a cold wind blowing from behind, and the sound of footsteps blew along with the wind, and it didn't stop until it landed beside him.

Huan Ling stood beside him, and comforted his grandfather with the same sincerity: "Grandfather, don't worry, Yue Huan... Uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters-in-law are all enlightened people, and now they are willing to treat me as their own son."

These two people are just like the orchid court jade tree mentioned in the book, standing together against each other is more pleasing to the eye, and you can't find a single fault when you look left and right.

However, this contrasting shape makes Huan Ge's old eyes feel sad, seeing it is worse than not seeing it.But after all, he is an old man, and he has to hold up his chest. Since he is willing to bow his head and admit his old evils, he sees his grandson standing side by side with Song Shi at this time and says: "From now on, there will be no one in my family in Beijing." , my grandson will be entrusted to Mr. Song."

The grandson also has a credible entrustment from the Song Dynasty, and the granddaughter marries into the royal family, so in the future, she can only rely on good luck.

Huan Ge stayed up all night, and wrote a long letter to his granddaughter, telling her that her grandfather would no longer be able to take care of her, and told her to act cautiously in the future, following King Zhou's wishes, and asking her brother if she didn't understand...

The next morning, he asked his daughter-in-law to hand over the sign, and delivered the letter into the palace, and when he turned around, he summoned his children to preside over the division of the family.

He and his eldest son's family are going back to their hometown, but Huan Ling can still work in Beijing, and his parents are also buried in Beijing.He made the decision to leave the tablet of Huanling's parents, and took out two stacks of sheets he copied when he was packing up the tent, and said to his children and grandchildren, "Separate the long room from the second room while I'm still here. The house is for Brother Ling, and all the gold and silver playthings in the warehouse are also for Brother Ling, and there is a house outside the Imperial Academy for Big Brother, you live with me for the property of your hometown, and I will be yours after a hundred years."

Although he resigned from office, his majesty is still there, no matter how he wants to divide the family, the children dare not comment.What's more, if they leave the capital this time, unless the king of Zhou has a chance to ascend the throne in the future, they may find it difficult to return to the capital.

The Huan Pavilion veteran divided the family property, and all the children and grandchildren of Dafang were driven out, leaving Huan Ling alone, looking at him hesitantly.

Huan Ling stood in front of him with his hands down, and responded with a rare submissive attitude in the past few years: "My grandson will be cautious about matters in the court, and will take care of my cousin and Yuan Niang, so as not to worry my grandfather. Grandfather also has The grandson will respectfully obey other orders."

His grandfather thought over and over again, and finally said what he said from the bottom of his heart: "Recently, I remembered what you advised me before Yuan Niang entered the palace. I already know that you are better than me as a grandfather, and I don't need to order other things. It's just, just you It's not unreasonable to live in Song's house all day... This house has been given to you, you can ask him to move here with you."

At any rate, the young couple lived alone, which was more comfortable than living under the eyes of their parents.

He told his grandson one last thing to worry about, and urged the whole family to leave the capital.

Because the king of Zhou fell out of favor, his resignation was inexplicably dishonorable, and few people in the court came to see him.Mr. Huan Ge wanted face very much, he didn't want to post all the posts but only saw Liao Liao people coming, so he simply refused to tell his relatives and old friends, only his two grandsons saw him off, and the family quietly embarked on the road back home.

After seeing him off, Huan Sheng also came to say goodbye to him, saying that he was going to move to the Imperial College.

Firstly, the students of Guozijian were supposed to study in the prison. Before that, he was the grandson of Mr. Ge, so he could move back home. Now that his grandfather returned to his hometown, he should go back to be a student honestly; Brother Tian took Song Shi home to live with him, and he still remembered the stupid things his own brother did that day, so he didn't have such a big face to see him.

Huan Ling knew that Song Shi didn't care about these things, but also knew that the elder brother was shy, so he agreed: "In that case, I will thank the elder cousin for his kindness first."

Huan Sheng had also memorized the "Parrot Song" he shared with Song Shi, and he knew that he and Song Shi were deeply in love, so he said with a smile: "It's nothing. This big yard is deserted if we live alone. We should move to the Imperial College The small courtyard outside is convenient for husbands and wives to meet and see the children every day."

They also took advantage of these two days to pack up their things and hired a few carts from outside to transport them away. This formerly bustling Minister's Mansion really became deserted.Huan Ling couldn't live alone, seeing the desolation in his eyes, and would rather move to the Song's house, which is a little further away, but there is one more thing to do before leaving——

He personally went to buy roasted pig's head, incense candles, fresh flowers, and steamed pastries, and asked someone to guard at the gate of the museum bureau, and asked Song Shisan to stay with Huan's family later.

Song Shi had long heard that his family was leaving Beijing today, but he couldn't ask for leave to see him off, so he immediately rode to Huan's family after he was on duty.All the plaques on the gate of the Minister's Mansion have been taken off, and no new ones have been hung, and there is no usual scene of traffic and visitors outside the gate, which makes people feel a little sad.

What should be even more sad is that Huan Ling who lived alone in this yard after his relatives moved out.

Seeing that the small door next to him was open, and no servant answered, he simply pushed open the small door by himself, and a figure who was so quiet that he wanted to blend into this cold courtyard ran into his eyes.

Song Shi stepped on the threshold and forgot to step over. Instead, he stepped on the door frame and jumped inside. He closed the door and asked, "Your family has gone back?"

You are the only one left alone waiting for me in this house?

Huan Ling nodded, and stretched out a hand to him: "Even my eldest cousin has moved to another courtyard now, I really can't live in such a big courtyard by myself, Shi Guaner..."

Song Shi followed the way of a little bird depending on others, and his compassion was so great that he could agree without his asking: "If you are afraid of living alone, I will stay with you!"

Huan Ling was originally not afraid of living alone, nor did he want to stay in this empty courtyard, but Song Shi was willing to stay with him, so he naturally couldn't ask for it, let alone object, so he pulled him with a smile and said, "Okay, then you Accompany me back to change clothes first, and then accompany me to meet my parents."

He paid homage to his ancestors at the Song family, and he also asked Song Shi to pay homage before his parents' spirits, so that the marriage could be considered formal.

He had already prepared a big red wedding gown in the style of the Song Dynasty, this time he didn't need to use a big red official gown to pretend to be a wedding gown, both of them could wear red clothes to pay homage.He took Song Shi back and changed his clothes, opened the ancestral hall by himself, and led Song Shi to kneel in front of the incense table where the sacrifice wine and vegetables were set...

Although there are servants in the family, how can there be servants who take care of the master?Besides, now Manjing knows that he and Song Shi are good friends, and even his grandfather and elder brother don't care about it. Naturally, others have nothing to say.

This time, there were no praisers, no one outside to salute, and no congratulations from relatives. It was not as lively as the Song family's sworn ceremony.But when Huan Ling bowed down, he was even more excited than before - because he was only a righteous brother when the Song family sworn in. This time, after bowing to Tiandi, they are truly husband and wife witnessed by Tiandi's parents.

He took a roll of paper from the incense table, rolled it out, and wrote the names of the two neatly on the front of the roll. The handwriting was thick and powerful like never before, and the back of the paper was soaked with ink.

Song Shi knew what he was writing, but he seemed to be fascinated watching his brush strokes on the paper, and he didn't stop him at all when he finished writing the names of the two people.

After Huan Ling finished writing, he put down his pen, hung the piece of paper in front of the hall, looked at Song Shi with a smile and said: "My family's old family tree was brought back to my hometown by my grandfather. From now on, the two of us will start to rewrite this family tree, so it will be passed down from generation to generation." ?”

Song Shi turned his eyes away, dawdled his gaze at the family tree for a while, and finally choked out a sentence: "This one is enough."

In the future, if they raise a child or something, let him go to the big family tree of his hometown. It is enough for the two of them to write a single sheet.
