Chapter 258 Yun Family Affairs
The night passed.
In the polar edge of Mobei, you can vaguely see the wild oasis and the smoke of shepherds.
Si Li was dressed in a red robe, like a ball of flame at night, walking alone on the desert hills.
Under her palm, an extra head appeared out of nowhere.
Going all the way south, her next destination is Xianling City.
……
……
Bailian stayed up half the night. Although the real voice in the dream last night had completely disappeared, those words were deeply touching. Imprinted in his heart.
It was as if there was an inexplicable force urging him to complete this mission quickly.
My head aches.
Even though I meditated for most of the night, I couldn't calm down my consciousness.
In two days, the Gui Marriage wedding team will arrive at the Yun family.
In the past two days, Bai Lian did not leave the Yun family residence, and only exchanged letters with Fang Geyu.
Fang Geyu’s other two guest monks were still staying in the inn. Lin Guiyuan was taken to the secret room of the Ten Thousand Dao Immortal Alliance by Li Beifeng. She must have had other plans.
Although Fang Geyu didn't tell him explicitly, Baili'an had already guessed something.
She is preparing to fight back.
Mencius did not write a letter, as if he was really afraid of the legendary ghost Youlang. He never appeared again after we parted that night.
But Bai Lian knew that Mencius was not an ordinary person. It might be difficult for others to enter this ghost house in the inner city, but if it were him, he would definitely have his own way.
Meng Zifei looks simple, but is actually complicated. Balian can't see through it, so he can only be wary of it secretly.
In the past two days, Bai Lian also learned the story of the Yun and Tao families.
In addition to his wife, the Tao family also has three concubines, and this time the person who bears the mark of ghost marriage is one of the three concubines, a member of the royal family, named Tao Ziyan, who is the daughter of the family. Three girls.
Tao Ziyan has been in her twenties. Although she was born from a concubine, she is tall and graceful. She is very beautiful. She is also the leader of the younger generation of the Tao family in talent and learning, and is deeply loved by the master of the Tao family.
The three daughters of the Tao family are outstandingly talented, quiet and gentle. As they grow older, the wealthy families in this city all fall in love with Tao Ziyan.
Of course this includes Yun’s eldest son, Yun Shulang.
The Yun family and the Tao family are family friends, so Yun Shulang and Tao Ziyan naturally became childhood sweethearts. The young master of the Yun family is five years older than Miss Tao family. He has loved and pampered her since she was young, taking care of everything in every detail. .
The marriage between the two families was a natural one, and the two became a match made in heaven in the hearts of people in the border town.
The Yun family has a large brocade business and is the most prosperous merchant in the border town. More importantly, the Yun family's wife's family has a close relationship with the army in the border town.
If we really calculate it carefully, the Tao family is still ahead of the Yun family.
The Tao family is naturally very happy.
And Yun Shulang loves her for being beautiful and sensible.
The two families hit it off immediately, and the marriage was decided early on.
Bailian felt something strange.
Logically speaking, Tao Ziyan is now twenty years old. For ordinary people, she has long passed the age of getting married and having children. If the two families really decided to get married in the early years, why has it been delayed until now? marriage?
As far as family background is concerned, the Tao family is really eager to have their daughter marry into the Yun family as soon as possible, so that when the dust settles, Tao Ziyan can be the young lady of the Yun family in peace and contentment.
In this case, it is very likely that the eldest son of the Yun family delayed the marriage intentionally.
But why did he delay the wedding?
Bailian once asked Yun Shulang this question.
While crying bitterly, Yun Shulang's answer was: "I have read poetry and books since I was a child. I consider myself knowledgeable and determined to study at Baimu Academy in the inner city, but I fail every year." No matter what He is better than me in both knowledge and talents. It’s shameful to say that the man’s heart is at work. Shulang thinks that if he doesn’t get admitted to Baimu Academy, he won’t be qualified to marry Ziyan.”
< br>
Of course, Balian wouldn't believe his nonsense.
If this is really the case, why should we propose marriage so early?
If you really meant it, you wouldn't be so cowardly and let your girl be criticized and looked down upon for nothing.
Although the marriage between the Tong Xiaoyun and Tao families will hardly play any role in the subsequent battle.
But Bailian is accustomed to careful calculation and pays attention to details. Even a wisp of dust is worthy of repeated deduction and observation.
What's more, this ghost marriage seal comes from a strange place.
The Yun family has reservations again, which will only make the next situation between him and Fang Geyu unknown and dangerous.
Yun Shulang couldn't ask anything, so Bailian asked the servants in the mansion.
The servants of the Yun Mansion knew that Bai Lian was a cultivator and were respectful to him. However, when he asked about Yun Shulang's marriage, they talked about other things, obviously not interested in the master's private matters. Would love to talk more.
They were extremely respectful to Bailian, but they also knew in their hearts that the life of this little fairy who had transferred the ghost marriage seal was probably in danger.
Yougui Lang has a reputation for being vicious, and one ghost can kill ten thousand soldiers in the city!
If a random cultivator could accept the Ghost Man, then the Ghost Master would not have been wreaking havoc on the world for three thousand years.
No matter how powerful a person is who is about to die from a ghost disaster, they will not take it seriously. At most, they will do enough to save face, but they still want to know some gossip.
That's really sorry.
No.
As a loyal servant of the Yun family, he would not do anything stupid that his master would hate.
The inquiry failed, and Balian was not frustrated.
He found a hoe and small scissors from the demolished house, and spent the entire afternoon accompanying the maids and maids in the mansion to weed, cut flowers, and chop wood and carry water.
In the evening, I helped cut vegetables and cook in the kitchen.
He is serious in his work, gentle in his treatment of others, and has no airs at all. With his good cooking skills, in less than half a day, he has become one with the maids and maids in the mansion and even the tough old ladies in the kitchen.
Of course, with Balian's temperament, he didn't deliberately want to please anyone, he just wanted to make a start, and quietly set up a conversation or something.
But after the afternoon passed, the effect was so good that he was a little surprised.
He rolled up his sleeves and tilted his spoon in front of the kitchen stove. The whole room was full of oil smoke, which could not block the crowd of women surrounding him. They were holding melon seeds in their hands, cracking them carefully, and their full eyes were wandering around Bailian. On the body, the group of big, round-waisted old women could not be driven away by waving brooms.
A group of warblers and swallows, whispering and laughing.
Every time he asks a question, he will get three answers.
The kitchen, which has the heaviest fireworks and the coldest atmosphere in the house, is quite lively tonight.
After all this excitement, Bai Lian understood everything about the Yun family's marriage.
It turns out that Yun Shulang was not unwilling to marry Miss Tao.
But the eldest son of the Yun family is romantic by nature, playing the trick of hiding a beauty in a golden house.
Yun Shulang is five years older than Tao Ziyan. In his early years, Tao Ziyan's face and bones had not yet grown, and she still looked like an immature child.
Although the two families were on good terms, Yun Shulang only looked after her as his sister and had no other thoughts at that time.
That year, Yun Shulang was in his best years as a young man. In that season when spring flowers were blooming and everything revived, he met a folk woman wearing a coat by the lake.
A young man in bright clothes and an angry horse, with a beautiful face and flaming flowers.
In this world, the most indispensable thing is the stories of young men and women who meet and know each other.
