Chapter 171 Hairpin
Chapter 171 Hairpin
Time flies, Lin Yaoyao's birthday is getting closer, and the Lin family starts to get busy.
On the first day of May, Lin Zhengping returned home with a gloomy face, and Qu Manrong and her group followed him back.
Originally, Lin Zhengping had made up his mind that they would not come back and asked Lin Yaoyao to go and meet them.
But no matter how long he waited, how much he looked, he only saw the letter delivered, but no sign of his daughter.
Now he completely realized that his daughter had made up her mind to accept the marriage!
It was a waste that he even took most of his family fortune with him, and his daughter didn't even know his good intentions at all.
But no matter how angry he was, he couldn't be angry at his daughter. He was just angry at himself for being a useless father.
If he was a little bolder, he would have directly thrown the imperial edict on Feng Yutian, and the marriage might have been called off.
The remaining poison in Qu Manrong's body has been almost cleared, and she came back specially to attend her daughter's coming-of-age ceremony and wedding.
Although Nan Yin did not come with them, she brought a gift with her. It was a birthday present she specially prepared for Lin Yaoyao.
But when Lin Yaoyao opened the box, she was really speechless by this birthday "gift".
Whose nice person gives a box of bugs as a birthday present?
Fortunately, she was not afraid of these poisonous insects, otherwise she was really afraid that she would be frightened and go berserk.
According to the elders, Lin Yaoyao's coming-of-age ceremony was to be held in a grand manner.
But she rejected it outright.
It was just a birthday, she didn't want to be so tired and deal with so many guests.
That would give her the illusion that it was not her birthday but someone else's birthday.
At her insistence, it was just a family meal together and some gifts from family members.
Especially when she thought about getting married in a month, she gave up the idea of having a big wedding.
Seeing that she insisted, the others had no choice but to agree with her.
But everyone felt that she was being unfairly treated, and the birthday gifts they prepared for her were a bit heavier.
It was Qu Manrong who pinned her hair herself.
Originally, Qu Manrong had been refusing, thinking that she was not a blessed person and should not be the one who wears a hairpin.
She was afraid of bringing her bad luck to her daughter.
But Lin Yaoyao insisted.
She knew that Qu Manrong was actually very moved, but because of this unfounded superstition, she could only suppress the thought.
"Mom, you did have a rough life in the first half of your life, but that doesn't mean you are a person without happiness!
Now all that is over, from now on you will only have sweetness after bitterness, and everything will turn out well.
This shows that you are a blessed person, and you will definitely be a very blessed person in the future!"
The old lady also echoed.
She has experienced life and death, and is more open-minded than anyone else, otherwise she would have been unable to let go when she was young.
"Yes! Manrong, you are Yaoyao's biological mother, you deserve to be the one who pins her hair!
Blessings are given by yourself, and you have to believe that Yaoyao is a very blessed person.
From now on, our family will have a happy ending and live every day in peace and stability!"
Lin Zhengping also followed suit to persuade.
Qu Manrong looked at all her relatives with red eyes, hesitating and unable to make a decision.
"I...can I really?"
"Of course! It's my birthday, so whatever I say is fine!"
She stuffed the white jade hairpin that Feng Nanchen had someone send her into Qu Manrong's hands, then squatted in front of her and asked her to pin her hair.
Qu Manrong originally wanted to be more formal, but considering that her body had not yet recovered, Lin Yaoyao simply chose to squat in front of her.
What's formal or not? We don't care about those unnecessary rituals. She is a rough person and has no sense of ritual.
Otherwise, if Feng Nanchen dared not show up at her coming-of-age ceremony today, she would have been furious.
Although there is no love between them for the time being, they will eventually spend their lives together.
The coming-of-age ceremony was the most important birthday ceremony for women in ancient times, and Feng Nanchen, as her fiancé, should be present.
Someone came to Prince Chen's Mansion early in the morning and presented the gift that Feng Nanchen had carefully prepared.
But he himself did not show up because he had something else to do.
Lin Zhengping's face turned black at that time.
He looked down on this future son-in-law and really didn't want to agree to this marriage.
But this is all his personal business as a father.
But now, your daughter's birthday is so important, and you, as her fiancé, don't even come. This is your problem, Feng Nanchen!
What does Prince Chen's Mansion mean?
My daughter hasn't even got married yet and you already don't care about her like this. How can she live a good life in the future?
Is this an attempt to intimidate your own daughter?
Lin Zhengping was very angry.
If today wasn't a good day for his daughter, he would definitely rush into the palace and beat up Feng Yutian, the culprit.
He had wanted to do this for a long time.
Look at this “good” marriage he has bestowed upon us. This is the virtue of the Feng family!
If Lin Yaoyao hadn't stopped him in time, he might have thrown away even the white jade hairpin.
It's a piece of junk, as if no one can afford it!
It was a rare occasion that the family finally sat together again, and everyone was free of any burden.
This reunion dinner was the first time I had such a great time.
"Sister, can I have a drink?" Lin Youan asked.
Brother Lian Nianzhi can drink, so he also wants to drink when he sees him. He wants to toast Lin Yaoyao with a glass of wine.
Firstly, he wanted to wish her a happy birthday, but in his heart he also wanted to wish his real sister a happy birthday.
On a day like this when the family is reunited, it is hard for him not to think of the past.
Whenever he and his sister celebrated their birthdays, their parents would prepare a bowl of longevity noodles for them with a poached egg underneath.
Every time it was my sister’s birthday, she would secretly save the eggs for him to eat.
The same goes for his birthday.
The parents saw it all but did not stop them. Instead, they smiled and watched the siblings getting along.
But all the beauty that once existed has now become a memory and an unattainable dream.
"Drink it, come on, uncle will pour it for you!"
Lin Zhengping has always felt that boys should not be spoiled and should learn to drink from an early age.
And you have to train yourself to drink well so that you can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk!
Otherwise, you might get drunk by accident in the future and make irreparable mistakes!
Alcohol and sex are the most misleading!
When he heard that Lin Youan wanted to drink, he immediately took the wine jug and poured him a glass of fruit wine.
But Lin Youan's eyes were still on Lin Yaoyao.
My sister doesn't agree and she won't drink it.
"Drink it, An An is a man, he really needs to learn how to drink."
"Then An An wishes Sister a happy birthday. I wish Sister everything will go well in the future, may she look forever young, and may all her wishes come true."
He secretly said in his heart: "I also wish An An's sister will have no worries about food and clothing in her next life."
After saying that, he drank the wine in one gulp. When others wanted to stop him, it was too late.
In an instant, he was choked and started coughing violently, and his face turned completely red.
"An An, I forgot to tell you that although this wine is just fruit wine, it is actually quite spicy..."
Didn’t you see that she only took a small sip and left it there without touching it?
