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

Xue Yuan didn't understand and waited quietly for Bai Youxin to say the next words.

Bai Youxin put down the teacup and asked, "Brother Xue, what do you think of the fourth young lady of the Su family?"

Xue Yuan was not stingy in praising Su Shunci, saying that her vision and ability were not inferior to those present today.

Bai Youxin added, "Miss Su is fifteen years old this year, and has reached the age for marriage. I stayed here today to remind Brother Xue that this is an opportunity."

Xue Yuan was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "When did Bai Shaodong start to act as a matchmaker?"

Bai Youxin continued, "I'm not joking. Doesn't the Xue family want to marry into the Ning Palace?"

"Don't blame me for not reminding Brother Xue. The Third Madam of the Shen family loves this concubine very much."

Xue Yuan shook his head and said, "Miss Su Si is the biological sister of His Royal Highness Prince Ning and Madam Shen San, and the cousin of the future Crown Princess. How can the Xue family, a mere merchant, be worthy of her?"

Bai Youxin laughed, "Brother Xue seems to know nothing about the fourth daughter of the Su family. Then I'll be honest with you, she will not marry into an official family."

Xue Yuan was stunned, "What do you mean?"

Bai Youxin analyzed the situation with her, "Firstly, the fourth young lady of the Su family is a concubine of the Pingning Marquis's mansion, and she was driven out of the mansion by the Pingning Marquis, which means she is no longer related to the Su family."

"Don't think that she lives in Prince Ning's mansion now, but if you really want to compare, she is not considered a member of the Su family."

"Besides, she has been doing business all along, and now her business is growing bigger and bigger. Any prominent family in the capital would be reluctant to marry her. If her family background is low, she can't have a say in the Ning Wang Mansion, and if her family background is high, she will look down on her background."

"Besides, I think this Fourth Miss Su is ambitious and will not be willing to give up her business and be trapped in the inner house."

"So, if a well-known merchant family proposes marriage, it will be more likely to win. Although the Xue family is a merchant family, their ancestors were also scholars. They have a good reputation and a good family tradition."

"This is an opportunity for the Xue family to move to the next level!"

As Bai Youxin analyzed the situation step by step, Xue Yuan put away the smile on his face and began to ponder over her words.

If what Bai Youxin said is true, then this is indeed an opportunity.

And to be fair, he did have some admiration for Su Shunci.

If such a person were to marry into the Xue family, let alone her background, her ability alone would be an opportunity for the Xue family to move to the next level.

Xue Yuan thought so in his heart, but his thoughts did not show on his face.

Instead, he looked at Bai Youxin inquiringly, "Bai Shaodong said this to me today, is it just because he feels sorry for me being single?"

Bai Youxin was amused by Xue Yuan's words, "Brother Xue, you are joking. You are arrogant and ordinary people are not worthy of your attention. You are not pitiful at all."

Knowing that Xue Yuan would be suspicious, Bai Youxin said, "To be honest with you, Brother Xue, the Bai family and the Lin family are going to get married."

"I'm telling you this for my own selfish reasons. I'm afraid that Fourth Miss Su will marry into another family and affect the Lin family's shipping business."

Xue Yuan was stunned and asked, "The Bai family and the Lin family are getting married? Could it be Bai Shaodong and Lin San Shaoye?"

Bai Youxin nodded, confirming Xue Yuan's guess.

Xue Yuan lowered his head and pondered for a moment. If Bai Youxin and Lin Wuchen were really discussing marriage, then it would not be surprising for Bai Youxin to do this.

There are not many people doing shipping business now, but that doesn’t mean others don’t want to do it.

The Xue family was fine, as they had always been on good terms with the Bai and Lin families. They also had a bottom line and had been well-behaved businessmen for generations.

But if Su Shunci married into another family, she would run into someone who had no principles and would only disrupt the market. With the help of Su Shunci and the power behind her, perhaps they could muddy the waters of shipping.

You may be able to catch fish in muddy water, but you may also not even catch a single shrimp.

Bai Youxin saw that Xue Yuan took it to heart, so she stopped talking. Everything should be done in moderation, not too much.

Before leaving, she told Xue Yuan, "Brother Xue, please keep today's events confidential. I don't want my words to be spread to the Lin or Su families."

"Brother Xue, you don't want the Su family to think that your proposal of marriage is a decision made after weighing the pros and cons, right?"

Without waiting for Xue Yuan to agree, she walked out of the private room. She believed that Xue Yuan was a smart man and would not say anything that he shouldn't.

After Bai Youxin left, Xue Yuan sat alone in the private room for a while.

It was really a bit abrupt to rashly go to Prince Ning's mansion to propose marriage. He thought about it and suddenly came up with an idea.

When he stood up and walked out, he told the servant waiting at the door, "Prepare the car and go to Lin's Company."

Just as the servant was about to reply, Xue Yuan stopped again, hesitated for a moment and said, "Go home first."

If he went to Lin's Trading Company at this time, Lin Wuchen might suspect Bai Youxin.

To be on the safe side, Xue Yuan waited for three days before going to Lin's Trading Company to find Lin Wuchen.

When he entered the room, Lin Wuchen was busy in the warehouse. When he heard that Xue Yuan had arrived, he hurriedly ordered him to go to the study.

Then Lin Wuchen washed his hands and quickly went to the study.

As soon as he entered the room, he smiled and said, "Brother Xue is a rare guest. Someone serve tea."

Xue Yuan stood up and said, "Did I delay Brother Lin's business?"

Lin Wuchen motioned him to sit down, and he sat down behind the desk, saying, "As you know, our business is full of trivial matters. You came at the right time. We will not stop until we are drunk at noon with the fine aged Huadiao wine we brought from the south yesterday."

Xue Yuan did not refuse and smiled heartily, "Then I will have a treat today. I just wanted to eat that."

He didn't explain his purpose, and Lin Wuchen didn't ask.

He ordered people to prepare wine and food in the hall, and also brought some wine.

The best Shaoxing Huadiao wine was warmed up by the staff before being sent over.

The two of them drank three bowls of wine in a row before Xue Yuan began to plan his words in his mind, preparing to explain his purpose to Lin Wuchen.

Lin Wuchen happened to be talking about the banquet that day, and Xue Yuan took over the conversation.

"Speaking of the banquet that day, I have another request for Brother Lin."

Lin Wuchen drank three bowls of hot wine, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead. Hearing this, he said cheerfully: "Brother, what's the matter? With our relationship, don't even bother asking for help. As long as I can do it, I will do my best to help you."

"But if I can't do it, please don't make it difficult for me."

Xue Yuan smiled and said, "I will not embarrass Brother Lin. This is not a business matter, but a lifelong event for me."

Lin Wuchen was stunned. "Lifelong event? Brother, you don't want me to help you find a matchmaker, do you?" He poured another bowl of wine for Xue Yuan and asked, "Brother, which girl did you fall in love with? Why did you find me?"

Xue Yuan took the wine poured by Lin Wuchen and drank it in one gulp.

Then he said, "I said that this person is none other than the fourth young lady of the Su family. Because Brother Lin has a close relationship with the Ning Wang Mansion, I would like to ask Brother Lin to help go to the Ning Wang Mansion to test the waters."

"I wonder if Brother Lin is willing to help with this?"
