Zhang Ailan's 2007 life officially began.
Because there's a wedding banquet tomorrow, I was assigned to help out in the kitchen that evening, preparing dishes.
Working until late at night, I was so hungry and tired that I fell asleep next to the bucket of dirty water.
Meanwhile, Lin Yu and Lu Xueqing were already in bed, preparing to sleep.
Just before going to bed, Lin Yu received a call from Liu Zhongyi.
Tomorrow is the Mingmu Assembly, and as agreed, Lin Yu and Liu Siyun will hold their wedding ceremony at the assembly.
Since it was a promise, Lin Yu naturally wouldn't go back on his word and immediately agreed.
Back in the bedroom, Lin Yu thought for a moment and decided to tell his wife about it, so he slowly began, "Wife..."
"Hmm..." Lu Xueqing was already drowsy at this moment.
Lin Yu said, "I'm going to the Liu family manor tomorrow to act in a play with Siyun..."
"What? A play..."
"Yes, it's just pretending to get married!" Lin Yu explained.
"..."
"Wife, wife?"
Asleep...zzz!
Lin Yu shook his head helplessly.
Never mind, I'll talk about it tomorrow morning when I have some time!
Lin Yu then collapsed and began to sleep soundly.
Perhaps I was too tired, because when I woke up, the sun was already high in the sky.
Lu Xueqing has already gone to work.
Lin Yu jumped up and checked the time.
Depend on!
We almost wasted time!
He quickly got up and tidied himself up.
He put on his most expensive Seven Wolves suit. He dampened a comb, brushed off the spiky hairs, fastened his tie, and hurried out the door.
When he arrived downstairs, Zhou Xiaotian saw that he was dressed like this and knew that he was going to do something important, so he personally drove the Bentley over.
Lin Yu opened the car door and got in.
Zhou Xiaotian asked with a grin, "Young Marshal, what important matter are you planning to attend to today?"
"Yes, I'm going to get married!"
Zhou Xiaotian: (⊙_⊙;)
marry?
What's going on?
Doesn't the young marshal already have a wife?
This...this...
Although I was very confused, I didn't dare to ask!
At Lin Yu's instruction, Zhou Xiaotian quickly started the car and headed straight for the Liu family manor.
Meanwhile, the Liu family manor was brightly decorated with lanterns and colorful streamers.
The parking lot outside the manor was already full of luxury cars.
Today is the Mingmu Conference, held once every thirty years by the Mingmu faction in the Northern antique world.
For over a hundred years, although the branches of the Mingmu School have been scattered throughout the country, all branches have gathered in Guanzhong to hold a joint conference every time the Mingmu Conference is held.
This is both a legacy and a mission!
The ancestors of each branch swore an oath together before the statue of the founder when the Mingmu Sect was established hundreds of years ago.
Never betray the Mingbian faction!
Moreover, all branches know that Liu Zhongyi is already seventy years old, and it's time for him to hand over the reins at this Mingmu Conference.
According to ancestral teachings, the seal of office can be passed on to one's own descendants first.
However, there was another rule from our ancestors: the heir must already be married.
As everyone knows, Miss Liu, the only son of the Liu family, is still unmarried.
Although the various branches didn't say anything, they were already eyeing the situation covetously in secret.
The leader of the Mingmu faction wields immense power. Holding the seal allows them to establish industry rules, create associations and alliances, and even achieve industry monopolies.
This is something every antique-collecting family would want to do, and Old Master Liu could have easily done it, holding the palm print in his hand.
However, he did not do so, and it seems that he intentionally did not want to expand his business, but only wanted to stay in Guanzhong.
In their view, holding this palm print in his hands was a complete waste.
Now, the opportunity has finally arrived.
Since Miss Liu is unmarried, they can rightfully demand that the Liu family relinquish their leadership.
Some families, several months in advance, began contacting Liu Zhongyi, intending to form a marriage alliance with the Liu family.
Liu Zhongyi had his own thoughts on the matter, but his granddaughter remained devoted to Mr. Lin, and he couldn't bear to pressure her into marriage.
But now, the die is cast and the die is cast.
Perhaps a fake marriage between the two would be the best outcome for the Liu family.
This would both fulfill his granddaughter's wish and preserve Liu's position as the head of the family.
Early this morning, members of various branches arrived one after another, full of anticipation, only to find the Liu family's house decorated with lanterns and streamers.
Most of the hope was instantly extinguished.
If Liu Siyun gets married today, it will be a natural thing for her to inherit the family seal.
They have no chance!
Some of the outstanding members of the branch families were extremely dejected. Liu Siyun's beauty was well-known, and many people came with high hopes, intending to propose marriage to the Liu family in public and win the heart of their beauty.
This plan has completely failed!
The most painful thing was for Sun Deqi and his son.
When the father and son woke up, they were completely bewildered to see the courtyard decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations.
Upon inquiring, I learned that Liu Siyun is getting married today!
Enraged, Sun Botao kicked a lantern to pieces on the spot, the '囍' character particularly glaring.
You see, Liu Siyun was practically his for the taking, and now that the duck he had in his grasp was about to fly away, how could he not be angry?
He immediately wanted nothing more than to find that adulterer and tear him to pieces!
Sun Deqi narrowed his eyes. He had coveted the palm seal for many years and was naturally unwilling to give it up so easily.
So he took his son back to the guest room to discuss it.
"Son, don't rush. Let's find out which family's son Liu Siyun is going to marry! I think the other party must have offered a good price, otherwise that old fox Liu Zhongyi would never have agreed!"
