A concubine enters the mansion? Reborn, three matchmakers and six engagements to marry the Prime Min

Su Qingyu did not change her clothes, she just put on a fox fur cloak.

When I walked in, I saw Lin Wuchen staring at the blue and white porcelain teacup in his hand in a daze, with a bit of confusion between his brows.

"Do you like our teacups?" Su Qingyu teased.

Lin Wuchen came back to his senses, looked at Su Qingyu with a wry smile, and seemed to want to say something but hesitated.

Su Qingyu sat down next to him and asked, "Is it about Fourth Sister's matter?"

Ever since Feicui died on the day of the palace coup, Ah Ci was heartbroken and it was always her third cousin who accompanied her and comforted her.

He guessed that there weren't many things that could make his third cousin look like this, and most likely it was because of his fourth sister.

Lin Wuchen put down the teacup in his hand, and after a moment's silence, he said, "I may not be able to wait until you give birth. I have to go to the south."

Before, he had always wanted to wait until Su Qingyu gave birth before going south to deal with his own affairs. Even if he couldn't help much when his cousin gave birth, he still wanted to wait until both mother and child were safe before leaving Beijing.

They are cousins ​​who grew up together and are just like real siblings.

So when he said this, he actually felt extremely guilty.

Su Qingyu looked at Lin Wuchen inquiringly, "Cousin, what's going on?"

Lin Wuchen had been holding this matter in his mind for a year, and he really wanted to talk to Su Qingyu about it.

He took a deep breath and said, "Cousin, do you know the Jinshang Bai family?"

Su Qingyu nodded, "I know. A lot of the brocades of the Su family's silk shop came from the Bai family. Fourth sister started her own business, and you also helped introduce the relationship with the Bai family."

"Later, I heard from Fourth Sister that you changed her supplier. She hasn't cooperated with the Bai family for more than half a year, right?"

Lin Wuchen nodded and said, "The head of the Bai family is called Bai Jingming. He is over 40 years old and has no son. He only has one daughter named Bai Youxin."

"Bai Youxin has been traveling around the country with the master of the Bai family since she was eight years old. She was trained as the young master. All the merchants in Jiangnan know that the Bai family will be looking for a son-in-law in the future."

Su Qingyu's expression became serious. "What is the relationship between Bai Youxin and my third cousin?"

Lin Wuchen sighed helplessly, "It didn't matter originally, but... now it may be inseparable."

Su Qingyu was confused by what he said, and without waiting for her to ask, Lin Wuchen continued talking.

"In the winter of the year before last, I went back to Yunzhou Prefecture. I happened to meet Bai Youxin when she went to check out the Bai family's shop in Yunzhou Prefecture. To express my gratitude for the Bai family's previous help, I treated her to a meal."

"This is a common thing. Although she is a woman, she is also the daughter of the Bai family. Normally, she does not care about the distinction between men and women."

"Also, the young masters from several other merchants in Yunzhou Prefecture were also present that day."

"After three rounds of drinks, they suggested going to the pleasure boat to drink. When I got on the boat, I vaguely felt something was wrong. I don't remember anything that happened on the pleasure boat. When I woke up again, I was naked in the cabin, and I vaguely saw Bai Youxin outside."

"When I went out, I heard the master and servant talking. The maid next to her complained that she was too brave and had given so much to help me. She also said that her family had already found a marriage for her. Now, I'm afraid there will be more twists and turns."

Su Qingyu's brows furrowed more and more tightly, "Have you asked her? This doesn't explain what happened to you."

Lin Wuchen said in a low voice: "There was blood on the bed, and I checked afterwards. It was the young master of the Zhao family who gave me that kind of drug in the restaurant in order to get me to help."

Su Qingyu stretched out her hand and rubbed her swollen brow. "What happened next? Have you talked about this with Miss Bai? What did she mean?"

Lin Wuchen said: "When I chased her out, she had already left. Later I wrote her several letters, but she didn't respond. I heard that Bai Jingming was not in good health this year, and the other branches of the Bai family were in a lot of trouble."

Su Qingyu roughly understood what was going on, so she asked, "What does the third cousin think now? Does he want to marry into the Bai family?"

If my third cousin dared to marry into the family, my eldest uncle would probably be so angry that he would break his legs.

Lin Wuchen shook his head and said, "It's not like he married into the family. Two years ago, Bai Jingming's concubine gave birth to a son for him. The child was directly registered under the name of the wife and was to be raised as a legitimate son."

"So the Bai family is not looking for a son-in-law now, but marrying off a daughter."

"After all, I am sorry for Miss Bai's behavior. I plan to go to Lin'an in person and ask her what her plan is."

He had thought it through. If Miss Bai had her own plans, he would not be responsible. He would make up for the Bai family in other ways, and explain the whole matter to Ah Ci after he came back. If Ah Ci was still willing to marry him, he would marry her with three matchmakers and six betrothals, and never let her down for the rest of her life.

If Miss Bai needed him to be responsible, he would not say a single word to Aci and would find a good family for her.

After hearing what he said, Su Qingyu couldn't help but feel conflicted.

From the perspective of Miss Bai, she had suffered a great injustice. Both the Lin family and the third cousin should give them an explanation.

But when I think of Ah Ci, I feel that it is unfair to Ah Ci. Why should Ah Ci have to rank behind Miss Bai?

Thinking of this, Su Qingyu couldn't help but blame Lin Wuchen, "Cousin, it's not that I'm on my sister's side. It's you... since you have this past, you really shouldn't mess with Fourth Sister."

She now even hopes that Aci has no feelings for her third cousin at all, and when her third cousin gets engaged to the Bai family, she will find a good marriage for Aci.

Lin Wuchen had a complicated expression and said helplessly: "I didn't expect it..."

He had never expected to fall in love with Ah Ci. He had only helped her out of pity for the little girl and out of consideration for his aunt and cousin.

By the time he realized what he was thinking, it was too late.

So he didn't want to wait any longer, whether he was dead or alive, he wanted to give himself a quick death.

Su Qingyu initially blamed Lin Wuchen, but when she saw him like this, she felt distressed.

I could only comfort her, "Then go quickly. Don't worry about me. There are so many people at home."

Lin Wuchen nodded, gave Su Qingyu a few more instructions, and then left the Shen family.

After leaving the Shen family, Lin Wuchen prepared to leave Beijing. He told Su Shunci that he would go to Lin'an to check the accounts of several shops, and also told his subordinates that if they were undecided, they could ask the fourth cousin.

Su Shunci didn't think much about it and told Lin Wuchen to go out without worry, and she would help take care of the trivial matters of Lin's business.

Lin Wuchen left Beijing two days later. When the carriage drove out of Xihua Gate, he lifted the curtain to look outside. He hoped that by the time he returned to Beijing, everything would have been settled.

But what he didn't know was that a quarter of an hour after he left Beijing, an inconspicuous carriage with green curtains entered the city.

The person in the car was the young lady of the Bai family, also the daughter of the Bai family, Bai Youxin.

The driver was a middle-aged man. After entering the city, he turned around and asked, "Miss, shall we go directly to the house in the capital?"
