I do fortune-telling in ancient astrology

Madam Ouyang burst into tears as she spoke, and said: "It's because I'm spoiled, thinking that he is the youngest and has fathers and brothers to take care of him, so I just want him to be happy in everything. Who would have thought that he would suddenly want to become an official?" Official, if you don't have enough energy, you can't keep up with it. Even a small county magistrate is a coward. We parents in Tong County can't help you. If you want to transfer him to the capital, you can't do it. Didn't work hard..."

Mrs. Ouyang's sobs became louder. Lin Xingwei looked at her mother, who also looked concerned. She took Mrs. Ouyang's hand and asked, "My two nephews have been studying in Yanshan Academy for many years. He was recommended, but his second nephew was still unaccounted for. Zhi Ang was younger than the two of them, so he was able to be a county magistrate from a foreign country. If he couldn't be transferred to the capital, why didn't my sister find a wife and go to Tong County? Accompany him, or recruit some disciples for him to go to Tong County to guide him?"

Mrs. Ouyang wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and sighed: "That's the only way."

Lin Xingwei slowly stuffed two sticks of firewood into the small clay stove, she really wanted to say: If possible, I will go to Tong County to accompany Zhi Ang.

People at the time were conservative in thinking, even if an unmarried daughter-in-law could serve her future daughter-in-law, she could never stay alone with an unmarried husband.Therefore, after this thought flashed through Lin Xingwei's mind, he didn't think about it any more.

Mrs. Hou gave Mrs. He a wink, and Mrs. He got up and said softly to Lin Xingwei: "Master, let's go and make some snacks for the two ladies."

There are a lot of snacks in the small kitchen, and they are just brought by the messenger.

Lin Xingwei understood, this is to say something that others can't listen to, and sent them out on purpose.

Lin Xingwei fed another two pieces of firewood into the stove, then got up and bowed and walked out gently.

Mrs. He followed Lin Xingwei all the way into the boudoir, and the two sat opposite each other.Lin Xingwei's room was not as warm as that of her mother's. She insisted on being young and wanted to exercise her body, so she removed the brazier after the year was over.

Lin Xingwei gave Mrs. He a hand stove, and seeing her faltering expression, she urged: "Ma'am, if you have something to say, just say it."

Mrs. He twisted and sat forward for a while, glanced at Lin Xingwei, and sighed a long time, "Why did Mrs. Ouyang, the Princess, come to our house today?"

Don't they move around a lot, what's so strange about that?Lin Xingwei didn't think there was anything wrong.

"I came here to ask for someone!" The wrinkles on Mrs. He's face were full of disgust, "Mrs. Madam Hou is going to ask Your Majesty the Queen to transfer Mr. Zhi Ang to the capital."

Lin Xing lowered his eyes slightly, "Why is my mother willing?"

"Old lady, I have followed Mrs. Hou for so many years, and I have never asked anyone for my own affairs. The marriage between the princess and Mr. Zhiang has not been settled for a long time. The rumors in the capital are bad, and the lady has no choice but to enter the palace to beg His Majesty and Queen. I gave Mr. Zhiang a humble post as a county magistrate in Xiangxian County, and in exchange for the Cao family to host an engagement banquet in the same county, this is the first time Madam begs for someone for the princess."

Holding the stove with both hands, Mrs. He looked sad, and said: "Now Mrs. Ouyang comes to beg Mrs. again. If Mrs. refuses to agree, she is afraid that the Cao family will make trouble in the princess's marriage. If she agrees, she will owe others favors."

"Mr. Cao and his wife can't do things with all their hard work. Who can our wife, a widow, ask for? It's just to ask her natal family." Mrs. He sighed.

Lin Xingwei felt so guilty, she pursed her lips, and said, "Even if mother asks Your Majesty and Queen again this time, Your Majesty and Queen will not agree, after all, Zhi Ang has only been in Tong County for half a year, and has not made any achievements."

Mrs. He said: "Don't say that Mr. Zhiang has only been in the place for half a year, but there are only a handful of people who want to be transferred to the capital or enter the imperial court all their lives. But if Mrs. Hou asks, the queen will definitely agree. I just know that the queen will definitely Will promise, Mrs. Hou is not willing to ask."

He said again: "Our wife is a low-marriage, and Nanyang Hou's mansion is also an empty shell at present. If it owes favors to her natal family, what can Madam Hou do to repay it? The reason why the Princess and General Wei can retire smoothly is because General Wei has gone too far, and the second reason is that our Marquis House has never owed His Majesty, Queen and Taiwei House, so they cannot threaten us."

Mrs. He knelt forward and took a step forward to grab the princess's hand. It was cold and dry, and Mrs. He's hand was even more piercing.There were tears in Mrs. He's eyes, "Mrs. Ouyang seems to be the same sister as our wife, but when it comes to matters related to our own interests, we can use each other. Madam is too strong, but she repeatedly bends down to beg for help for the princess. The old woman looked distressed. The old woman said these things to the princess, just to let the princess know what to do. If Mrs. Ouyang and our family are divided because of the transfer of Mr. Zhiang, the marriage between the princess and Zhiang may be difficult. Mishap happened."

The corners of Lin Xingwei's mouth twitched, he didn't say anything, and didn't know what to say.Even if someone went to Tong County to teach Cao Yi how to do things in person, Mrs. Ouyang would not give up on this matter according to her temperament.

When Mrs. Ouyang left, she couldn't see any expression, and she didn't know what the two wives said after Lin Xingwei left.Mrs. He followed Mrs. Hou to serve again.

Lin Xingwei was lying on the stone table in the small pavilion in the backyard, blowing the cold wind, watching a few dead leaves swaying in the wind on a big poplar tree in the distance.Why is her marriage so bad?

What if Mrs. Ouyang still wants her mother to enter the palace to intercede?If the mother does not agree, will she and Cao Yi not be able to get married?She wanted to marry Cao Yi and didn't want to embarrass her mother.

Lin Tingyu came over and flicked a jujube on Lin Xingwei's forehead, "What are you thinking about?"

Lin Xingwei didn't even lift his eyelids, and mumbled weakly, "Cousin, I'm probably going to divorce the Cao family again."

Lin Tingyu laughed twice, and sat on one side, "What should I do? I'm not surprised at all when I divorced Cao Yi."

"Why?" Lin Xingwei finally raised his head, sat up straight and looked at Lin Tingyu, "Elder cousin doesn't like Cao Yi either?"

Lin Tingyu was still a little puzzled, "Don't you know? No one in our family thinks highly of you and Cao Yi except grandparents. Apart from Cao Yi's family background being better than yours, how else can Cao Yi be worthy of you? You and Cao Yi discussed marriage at the beginning. I was not at home at the time, or I would be the first to stand up against it."

Lin Xingwei's face was even more dejected than before. He cast a sideways glance at him and said, "Just because you have a prejudice against Zhiang, doesn't mean that the whole family has a prejudice against him. Zhiang is a very nice person."

Lin Tingyu didn't shy away from it at all, insisting on poking Lin Xingwei's heart with a knife, he said: "If you don't object, you don't want to spoil your good mood. Back then, the whole city was full of uproar over the divorce between you and Wei Mingji. Dare to propose marriage to you? Just at this time, Cao Yi proposes marriage to you, and my aunt has no choice but to catch Cao Yi and marry you off quickly."

Lin Xing looked at him with a dark face, "Am I so unbearable? Are you afraid that you won't be able to get married? Mrs. Ouyang regards Zhi Ang as a precious lump. If I am really so unbearable that I can't get married, the Cao family will still have a crush on me?"

Lin Tingyu curled his lips and said: "That's Cao Yi's incompetence. I can only blame Mrs. Ouyang for protecting Cao Yi so well that he can't do anything. He can't study, he can't practice martial arts, so there is no one. Which family is willing to marry him, and it turned out that his family fell in love with your ability to manage the house and the influence of your aunt's family, and you fell in love with Cao Yi's weak temper and easier handling than Wei Mingji, so it's a hit and miss!"

Lin Tingyu said again: "Don't stare at me, I have met several adults in the court these days, and I know a lot about Cao Yi, although there is a lot of water in it, but most of it should be true .”

"When Cao Yi first arrived in Tong County, he said that a great person specially greeted Danyang County and asked them not to spread Cao Yi's family background to the outside world. Therefore, the county magistrate of Tong County didn't know that Cao Yi would be the son of Master Cao, so he treated him harshly. .”

"Later, you and Mrs. Ouyang went to Tong County, and Cao Yi's background could not be concealed. Now no one dares to treat him harshly, but he is a county magistrate who is completely empty-handed. Tong County County In the name of letting Cao Yi heal his wounds, Ling refused to let him do what he was doing, and confessed like a god."

"At first, Cao Yi didn't agree to let Mrs. Ouyang transfer him. Now he can't do anything about it. He wants to come back. Ah, yes, I heard that Cao Yi's place of exile has changed from Xiang County to Tong County. The county was asked by Wei Mingji in front of His Majesty? Why did he want to speak for Cao Yi? Can he get Cao Yi back if he can get him there?"

Lin Xingwei's face darkened, "The big cousin hasn't taken office yet, so the news is so well-informed. These adults are also, after eating and drinking, they have nothing to do, and start talking about other people's good and bad!"

Lin Tingyu was serious and looked like an elder, and said: "Ran Ran, don't be angry with your brothers. Mrs. Ouyang asked everyone she could for Cao Yi's transfer. How could others not know about his family's family? I saw me again on the scene, and knew that I was your cousin, so I deliberately told me about it."

"I guess Wei Mingji's willingness to talk to Cao Yi must be for your sake. If you don't want to see Cao Yi live a miserable life in Tong County, then go and ask Wei Mingji to find a way to help you, but you Think about it, for a person who can't even manage local affairs, is being transferred to the capital harming him or helping him?"

Lin Xingwei's face was no longer dark, only the cold paleness remained.She looked at Tingyu lazily, and asked leisurely: "Why do you have to be an official? If you can't be an official, can't you not? Can't you entrust the virtuous and capable people to do practical things for the people of the world?"

Lin Tingyu slapped Lin Xingwei's forehead again, "How can a family like the Cao family tolerate mediocrity in their children? No matter what, they want to find a job."

Lin Xingwei covered his forehead that was hurt by bullets, and said anxiously: "Cousin Han Chuang has studied hard for more than ten years, and now he has a half-job, so he can stand on the high platform and watch other people's suffering from a distance."

She got up angrily, tripped over Lin Tingyu's long leg when she was leaving, kicked Lin Tingyu's calf angrily, and went back to her room.
