Lin Defa was sweating coldly. He just casually said that he would deal with the eldest lady first. How could he have a daughter-in-law?
The fact that his son Lin Hao likes the eldest lady has long been an open secret of the Lin family.
As a father, he is not stupid. Of course he can see that his son likes the eldest lady.
I originally thought it would be best for the two of them to get together, but now it seems that it is just unrequited love for my son!
Also, the eldest lady came from the first disciple of that venerable person, and was a princess in that place. How could people think so highly of a small family like the Lin family?
The eldest lady clearly wants her son to stop thinking about her this time.
As a father, he understands.
Lin Defa suddenly thought of the branch clan that had been guests at home these past two days, the Mu family.
Mu's ancestors were kind to the Lin family, so the Lin family's ancestors gave the Mu family a name, and they joined the Lin family's main clan. They were considered a branch clan, but they were not related by blood.
He remembered that the current head of the Mu family, Mu Song, had a young daughter who had just grown up and was also a guest at the Lin family these past two days.
When Mu Song brought her to visit, he took a look and saw that the girl was timid, but she looked pretty and pretty.
Forget it, just her!
As long as the eldest lady can dispel her doubts about her son, it doesn't matter who he is.
Lin Defa lowered his head, "That child is from my branch of the Lin family. I have been engaged to Quanzi since I was a child. Now that I have just grown up, according to the customs and rules here, I can be engaged."
Lin Qingrou raised her eyebrows and smiled, "That's very good. Brother Hao will be very happy if he knows the news."
She counted with her fingers and said, "Three days will be a good day. Then I will ask Brother Hao to come back and we will get engaged that day."
Lin Defa was stunned, knowing that it was too hasty, but he had no choice but to apologize and reply with a smile: "The eldest lady has a clever plan. You said that it will be a good day in three days, so it must be a good day. That's it."
After coming out of the room, Lin Defa hurried straight to the guest room to discuss the engagement with Mu Song.
Lin Qingrou stood at the window, watching his hurried away figure, and knew that the so-called baby kiss was just nonsense made by Lin Defa.
He was so anxious because he was rushing to find someone who could get engaged to Lin Hao.
Oh.
She didn't care who was engaged to Lin Hao, and she didn't bother to find out whether the other party would be happy marrying Lin Hao.
For her, without Lin Hao, she can easily fall in love with Brother Xingchuan!
Lin Qingrou was lying at the window, her mind filled with Liu Xingchuan's gentle and handsome face, and the more she thought about it, the redder her face became.
"Brother Xingchuan, I want you so much. Even if I use some means, I still want you to fall in love with me!"
"As long as you fall in love with me, even if you wake up one day in the future, it will be too late."
Lin's guest room.
"Dad, when are we going back to the mountains?" A girl with braids timidly asked her father who was drinking tea beside him.
Mu Song looked at his daughter's soft and frail look and felt a headache. "Tao girl, dad brought you to my house this time just to let you stay and learn Gu skills. Why do you want to go back just after you came here?"
"Dad, I don't want to learn voodoo, those insects are so scary." Mu Taotao couldn't help but shudder as she spoke.
Mu Song held his head and said, "Girl, you have been too quiet and introverted since you were a child. This is not good. You will be bullied when you go out in the future. Besides, we are Miao people. How can we do it if we don't know the magic of bewitching? We are not allowed to be bullied when we go out.
People die laughing!”
Mu Taotao pouted her little cherry mouth and said coquettishly: "Dad, I really don't want to learn. How about we go home?"
"No! You have to learn. When will you learn, when will you come home?" Mu Song categorically rejected his daughter's coquettishness.
Just then, Linde arrived.
"Brother Mu, are you talking to your daughter?"
"Master Lin, please sit down quickly!" Mu Song quickly stood up to greet him and brought him tea and water.
Lin Defa sat on the main seat, his eyes were like lightning, and he looked at Mu Taotao up and down.
This girl looks delicate and frail, and does not have the charm of the Miao women. Maybe she has been in the mountains for a long time, but she has a little more aura.
"Brother Mu, I came to see you this time with an unkind favor."
"Master, please speak."
"My son Lin Hao has fallen in love with your daughter." Lin Defa said straight to the point: "I'm here to propose marriage."
Musong's face stiffened a bit.
Propose marriage?
Propose marriage with just one mouth?
"Don't worry, as long as your daughter marries my son, my Lin family will never treat her badly, let alone the Mu family."
"Haven't the Mu family always wanted to learn the Lin family's secret voodoo skills? As long as you marry your daughter, I will pass on the voodoo skills to you, the Mu family. This way, you won't be able to hold your own in the Miao territory."
Lin Defa is very confident.
Mu Song brought his daughter to the Lin family. If it sounds good, he is here to visit relatives. If it sounds bad, he is here to secretly learn the art of voodoo.
Since he wants to learn voodoo, fine, he can use his daughter in exchange.
"I don't want to get married, I'm still young..." Mu Taotao protested in a low voice.
Lin Defa laughed loudly, "Not too young, not too young. You are already eighteen. You have to follow our previous rules. You are now a mother!"
"Besides, girls will get married sooner or later. Marry someone with better conditions while you are young. Otherwise, when you get older, you will have to let others pick and choose you."
"Besides, it's not like your father doesn't know the status of my Lin family in Xiangcheng. As long as my Lin family is here, I can protect your Mu family's prosperity and wealth."
"Little girl, marry my son and you won't have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of your life."
Mu Song was silent for a long time, and finally managed to squeeze out a sentence, "Master, why don't you let the two children get in touch first?"
"There's no need to get in touch! My son just likes your daughter! I, the father, have come to propose marriage to you in person, so what are you worried about?" Linde laughed and said: "If you don't have any objections, then this marriage
I made a reservation, three days later..."
"What? Three days later?!"
The Mu family father and daughter were shocked.
You don’t drive ducks like this when you put them on the shelves, do you?
Lin Defa increased the stakes, "In this case, on the day of the engagement, my Lin family will give your Mu family a betrothal gift, one million in cash, twenty black pigs, thirty chickens, forty ducks, fifty geese, six
Ten acres of mountainous land, seventy fruit trees, eighty pounds of venison, plus ninety grams of gold..."
Mu Taotao finally couldn't bear it anymore and muttered: "Are we going to open a breeding farm?"
Lin Defa smiled arrogantly, "Don't you, Mu, like to live in the mountains? These things will be enough for you to eat for a long time."
"My father will not agree..." Mu Taotao whispered.
Unexpectedly, the next second, the slap in the face came so quickly.
Mu Song looked at Lin Defa steadily, "It doesn't matter how much the betrothal gift is, but I'm asking you, if my girl marries your family, can your family really take good care of her?"
Mu Taotao looked at her father with shock on her face, feeling that her father was so strange at this moment.
