A concubine enters the mansion? Reborn, three matchmakers and six engagements to marry the Prime Min
Chapter 364: A cornered dog will jump over the wall
Lin Wanyin looked up at Lin Wuchen, waiting for his answer.
In Lin Wanyin's opinion, Lin Wuchen would definitely do his best to promote this marriage. After all, Su Shunci's progress in the past year was all brought up by him. Lin Ziyu was also his younger brother, and he knew both sides well.
Lin Wuchen's smile froze for a moment, then he said, "They are not suitable. Their personalities are not suitable. The fourth cousin is lively, and our fourth child is also lively. If we bring them together, the roof of the Lin family can be lifted up."
Now, it was Bai Sulian's turn to have her smile froze.
Although my daughter is not a noble lady, she is also capable of both housework and housework. She can open a shop to make money and manage household affairs.
Why does it sound like Third Young Master Lin's words make it seem like his daughter is being disliked?
Lin Wuchen was such a perceptive person that he knew he had said the wrong thing the moment he finished speaking. He looked at Bai Sulian's expression and knew that she had misunderstood.
He hurriedly walked up to Bai Sulian and said apologetically, "Aunt Lian, that's not what I meant."
"I don't mean to say that my fourth cousin is bad, but this marriage matter still needs to be carefully considered. We can't be so hasty. We have to see if our personalities are compatible."
Bai Sulian thought, how do you know they are not a good match? Don't you have to introduce them first and get to know them after some contact?
The Lin family is the wife's family, and they know everything about it. The fourth young master of the Lin family is about the same age as Ah Ci, so this is a good match that you can't find even with a lantern.
She didn't expect her daughter to marry into a wealthy family. Even though she was sworn cousin to the Song family, she had no intention of using this relationship to pave the way for her daughter to marry into a wealthy family.
She just wanted her daughter to marry into a family that she knew well, with reasonable parents-in-law and a considerate husband. It would be even better if her family could support her daughter in doing business.
No matter how you think about it, the Lin family is a good choice.
Although Su Qingyu didn't know why Lin Wuchen spoke so impulsively today, she also knew that what Lin Wuchen said made sense.
Then he began to persuade her, "Mother, Aunt Lian, we can't rush this. You can't just match them up. You need to ask Fourth Sister what she thinks about this matter."
"In my opinion, we should ask our fourth cousin to come to the capital after the New Year so that the two of them can meet in private and then make plans."
Lin Wanyin and Bai Sulian nodded and both said that this was a good idea.
Bai Sulian thought for a moment and said, "Ah Ci is still young. If you ask her whether she likes it or not, she won't understand. Let them spend a few days together. As long as they don't get tired of each other, I think this marriage will be a success."
As a mother, she was afraid that Su Shunci was too young to understand these things and would miss out on a good marriage.
Lin Wuchen blinked twice, thinking that what Bai Sulian said was wrong. But he tactfully kept silent, planning to go back and send the fourth child to the south, not allowing him to return to Beijing within a year.
As for Su Shunci's marriage... he will help her look for it slowly, and she will always find a suitable one.
At noon, everyone had lunch in Yushu Hutong, which was cooked with the cold-water fish that Su Qingyu had brought today.
While eating the fish, Lin Wuchen teased Su Qingyu, "It has to be Elder Shen who has the solution. I haven't been able to catch this fish this year."
Su Qingyu knew he was joking and was used to bickering with him.
"So what did you get? It's not like you're just eating for free on New Year's Day without paying anything, right?"
Lin Wanyin glared at Su Qingyu, "How can you talk like that? You are being disrespectful to your cousin."
Although it was a reprimand, there was also a hint of fondness in his tone.
Lin Wuchen smiled and said, "Aunt, please don't say anything bad about her. If you say anything bad, she will come after me."
Then he said to Su Qingyu, "How can I eat for free? I made you some Fujian preserves, Huangyan tangerines, and Shaoxing wine."
"Take your portion back directly later."
Su Qingyu was carefully picking out fish bones, and upon hearing this, she said, "That's good enough."
After lunch, Su Qingyu told Lin Wanyin about the news from Northern Xinjiang and reassured her, and then she took the things given by Lin Wuchen back to the Shen family.
From the 25th day of the twelfth lunar month, we were busy all the way to the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month. The festive atmosphere became stronger and stronger, diluting the panic of the people during the cold disaster.
On the 29th, Su Qingyu got up in the morning and distributed New Year's rewards to the managers who worked for her and were in charge of the dowry.
After that, the servants in the mansion were given two extra months' wages. On the morning of the first day of the new year, the masters would distribute New Year's money.
Therefore, every New Year is the happiest time for the servants. Sometimes, if the master is happy, the rewards they receive may even be several years' monthly salary.
In the evening, everyone in the Shen family was gathering at the old lady's Qingyuan Residence for dinner.
Suddenly, news came from the palace that the emperor summoned Shen Zhixiu to the palace.
Entering the palace at this time is most likely related to the border war, and Su Qingyu has already gotten used to it.
In the evening, Su Qingyu was choosing jewelry to wear for the New Year, when Shen Zhixiu walked in slowly.
Su Qingyu turned to look at him, "You're back? Why are you so late?"
Shen Zhixiu had a cold air about him and didn't dare to get too close to Su Qingyu.
While changing into his regular clothes at home, he said, "I have good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?"
Su Qingyu raised her eyebrows slightly, and her bright eyes showed a questioning look.
"Good news? Did my brother bring back good news?"
"So what's the bad news? He's hurt?"
Shen Zhixiu shook his head and said, "Good news, you guessed it right. Today, there is a victory report from the Northern Frontier. The emperor was very happy and said that this is a very good omen."
"As for the bad news, the emperor has rewarded the Li family handsomely."
Su Qingyu stopped what she was doing and unconsciously fumbled for the ruby hairpin on her hand, "A big reward? How much?"
Shen Zhixiu said: "Princess Yongjia was given more land and a lot of gold, silver and jewelry. In addition, Li Jingchuan was given a peerless sword."
Su Qingyu held her breath and said, "They are taking the reward, so they are not afraid of hurting their backs."
Shen Zhixiu changed into casual clothes, walked to Su Qingyu, picked up the hairpin and compared it with her head.
"You are more suitable to wear jade or oriental pearls. Rubies are a bit old-fashioned."
She half-leaned against the dressing table and said nonchalantly, "Do you think Princess Yongjia will be happy with this reward? The more the emperor rewards her, the more she will be unable to sleep at night."
Su Qingyu thought about it and realized that this was true. The more achievements Li Yunzhou made, the more panicked Princess Yongjia would probably feel.
Suddenly, he thought of something and blurted out, "Will she do something to my brother if she panics?"
Shen Zhixiu knew she was worried, so he put his arm around her shoulders and comforted her, "When a dog is desperate, it will jump over the wall. You can't stop it from jumping. When it jumps, you can just beat it. Don't worry."
Su Qingyu laughed out loud at his words and punched him lightly, "Third Master, what kind of metaphor is this? But it's quite insightful."
Shen Zhixiu grabbed Su Qingyu's hand that was hitting him and pulled her into his arms.
"Don't think about it. Go to bed early. Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, and there are a lot of things waiting for you."
