After Youshi left, Lin Daiyu sat silently for a moment, her fingers trembling slightly holding the letter paper.

"Sister, what's the matter?" Lin Moyu came back, seeing Daiyu's pale face with tears still on her face, she was shocked, and hurriedly asked Xueyan who was standing beside her.

"Today, Grandma You from the Rongguo Mansion came to say something, and the girl has become like this." When Youshi spoke, she turned away the maids on the left and right. Daiyu sent her maids out as well, so Xueyan didn't know Affection.

"Brother Mo, it's my sister who has troubled you." Daiyu said and shed tears again.

"Why did my sister say that? Although she is feeling better, she can't help being so sad." Lin Moyu hurriedly stepped forward to comfort her.

"Today my grandmother sent Grandma You from the East Mansion to talk about a marriage with Brother Mo."

"Which girl are you talking about, but we are not allowed to touch this Rongguo Mansion." After Lin Moyu finished speaking, she regretted her slip of the tongue and hurriedly asked:

"Which girl is grandma talking about?"

"It's about Sister Yun, who is from the same family." Daiyu sneered. People who came to propose marriage these days have almost broken through the threshold. She wholeheartedly wanted to choose a good one for Brother Mo, so she hesitated. It actually attracted Shi Xiangyun.

"Didn't the historian just commit a crime and be sent back to his hometown? How could grandma tell me about her?"

"So it was originally."

"This marriage is impossible." Lin Moyu shook her head.

"Sister-in-law Rizhu came to mention this matter the other day, but I refused and didn't tell you. Today, Grandma You came prepared."

Daiyu said that she sent You Shi, the letter written by Lin Ruhai and his wife, and unfolded it for Lin Moyu to read.

"It's my father's own handwriting. It's just that my grandmother sent these, what is it for?"

"Written in black and white, grandma won't allow us to refuse." Thinking of this, Daiyu felt desolate, couldn't help but add to her grief, and wiped her tears with a handkerchief.

"Originally, what my father and grandmother discussed was my sister's marriage, but now they want to apply it to me?" Lin Moyu gradually understood.

"That's right. I'm the one who got you in trouble. Now I can't think of a solution. My eldest sister has always had a lot of weird ideas. You might as well ask her."

Xie Yan was just taking a rest, and after listening to Daiyu's story, he couldn't help frowning and said:

"This is difficult."

"Where does the uncle say this? It's just an old letter from my father. Now that it's in the hands of my sister, it's okay to burn it. There's nothing to worry about. Mo Geer's new high school is full of noble girls, so why bother with the same honor?" Marriage at the national government. Which girl is it? Aren't they all engaged?" Lin Hanchuan asked Daiyu after hearing this.

"It's Sister Yun, and the fourth younger sister is also waiting in the boudoir." Daiyu took advantage of the situation to repeat Youshi's words.

"Ma'am, my father-in-law's mother-in-law and the old lady have a long history of correspondence, and Mo Ge'er was succeeded as his heir before his father-in-law died. If these letters were put on Mo Ge'er, no one else would be suspicious. It would be easy to deal with these, It is hard to guarantee that the old lady will not leave a few more letters. When it is spread out, outsiders will not know about it, and I am afraid that it will hinder the reputation of Brother Mo."

"Destroying evidence is not a gentleman's act. Since it is my father's legacy, I should obey it." Lin Moyu also disagreed with the method proposed by Lin Hanchuan.

"You know it's a trick, but you still want to get in?" Lin Hanchuan wondered, what is Mo Geer thinking in his head?This is not modern. If you are not satisfied, just get a divorce and it will be over.How many literati have put their lives to choose a high school to marry, how can Brother Mo be so stupid, the Rongguo Mansion is in danger now, it is good not to hold back.

"What Brother Mo said is reasonable. Since Father-in-law agreed before his death, this marriage cannot be postponed. As sister Daiyu said just now, there are still two young ladies in the Rongguo Mansion who are waiting in their boudoirs. I don't know what their temperaments are?" Xie Yan heard. , have other plans, asked.

"There is only one member of my grandmother's family, the fourth younger sister in the East Mansion. She was brought up under the old lady's knees since she was a child. She is cold-tempered on weekdays and not close in the East Mansion. In Rongguo Mansion, apart from the second sister, there are also She doesn't have much contact with the other sisters, she only reads paintings and calligraphy in her own room. The other one lives in the Rongguo Mansion. She used to be a historian with two lords. Later, the rest of them returned to their original places, but the grandmother was reluctant to part with Sister Yun. , leave her in the mansion to be with the second elder brother." Seeing Xie Yan's serious question, Daiyu thought about it and said truthfully.

"To be with the Second Master Bao of Rongguo Mansion? How is this Miss Smith's appearance and character better than your fourth sister?" Xie Yan had a lot of meaning when he heard this, and couldn't help but play with it.

"The appearance and talent are much better than the fourth younger sister, and I was very good with me when I was young." It's just that they got married later.

"What does Brother Mo think?"

"Parents passed away, so it's natural for the two sisters and brother-in-law to decide. But from what my sister said, this fourth girl is very quiet and courteous."

"Actually, being married to the Rongguo Mansion may not be a bad thing." Xie Yan pondered for a while and said.

"Why did brother-in-law say that?" Daiyu asked hastily.

"Mo Ge'er is valued by His Majesty now, so we have to be more careful about this marriage. If you choose a marriage from a high family, it will inevitably arouse His Majesty's suspicion. If the family is too low, and bring a small family of jade into the mansion, I am afraid that it will be harmful to Mo Ge'er." Difficult future will help you." After entering the officialdom, the wives of the back house often communicate with each other, if they are too high-ranking, they will be ridiculed.

"But my grandfather's family is also the family of the Duke's mansion, so is there any problem with Brother Mo's future?"

"Marriage with the Rongguo Mansion is an increase of relatives. Even if there is no such marriage, the Rongguo Mansion is our in-laws, and we cannot get rid of it. Besides, the imperial concubine and empress have passed away, and the two families of the Rongguo Mansion are separated. It is not what it used to be."

"So, this marriage has to be concluded? Although Miss Si is a good person, her relatives are not easy to get along with." Lin Hanchuan was still a little dissatisfied. Rongguo Mansion would raid the house in the future.

"This fourth young lady is valued by the two elder sisters, and her appearance and character are also good. She has a cold temper, so she will only be in contact with the two young masters in the future." Lin Moyu said after hearing Xie Yan's analysis.Lin Ruhai wrote the handwritten letter by himself. No matter whether it refers to his sister or himself, he is willing to obey his father's promise and fulfill the wish of Lin Ruhai and his wife.What's more, the situation forced me to do it.My sister has promised to be a good family, so there is no need to make trouble again.

"What, the Lin family is looking for the fourth girl?" Mother Jia was startled, and asked Li Wan in front of her.

"The housekeeper's daughter-in-law of Lin's mansion is indeed talking about the fourth younger sister, and the old lady listens well."

"How is this possible? At the beginning, she was talking about Girl Yun, so it has nothing to do with the fourth girl. From the beginning to the end, she was never mentioned by name." Mother Jia clutched her chest, feeling a little out of breath.Yuanyang hurriedly stroked her chest and thumped her back. It took a while for Jiamu to come back, and sighed, "Exchanging girl Yun for fourth girl quietly, who else can there be besides Zhen's daughter-in-law in Dongfu? You have to go to you again." Go to Sister Lin's house and explain this matter carefully, Si Yatou is still young."

Li Wan had no choice but to agree.It is the fourth younger sister who wants to come to Lin's house, otherwise, even if Mrs. You is very capable, he will not be able to control the Lin family siblings.It is inevitable to suffer another grievance, and to be angry in two places.It's just because the fourth girl is young?Isn't it natural to talk about marriage after Jiji?

The news of Lin's replacement was spread all over the Rongguo Mansion.

"Sister Bao, why are you talking about it? Except for painting, how can the fourth sister compare to me? Sister Lin was not close to her before, so why choose her instead of me." After hearing the news in the chai room, several things were dropped.Baochai flirted with Ying'er, and Ying'er hurriedly put away an antique vase. Seeing this, Shi Xiangyun stopped in embarrassment.

"Don't worry, Yun'er. I think the housekeeper's daughter-in-law heard it wrong. The old lady has already sent her sister-in-law to Sister Lin's house, and she will reply in a short time." How could this kind of thing be wrong? road.

"What kind of servants does the Lin family use, and this kind of thing can be misrepresented." Shi Xiangyun sneaked a glance at Lin Moyu from behind the screen. Although he had a deep love for Jia Baoyu, he did not reject marrying Lin Moyu.Among the sisters, she was the first to get engaged, but she was the most frustrated when she didn't want to get married.

Li Wan had no choice but to go to the Lin Mansion again, met Lin Daiyu, and said straight to the point:

"The eldest girl ordered the housekeeper's daughter-in-law to come to the door yesterday. She must have mistaken the name. The old lady mentioned Sister Yun, not Siyatou. The old lady said that Siyatou is still young, so she might not be good enough for Brother Mo."

"Fourth sister is a few months older than our brother Mo." Daiyu laughed.

"It's just that the old lady insisted that she got the wrong person, and ordered me to come over and explain it to the girl. At least the eldest girl will let me have an answer."

"My parents clearly stated in the letter that they want to be married. The marriage between the two surnames of Lin Jia is not about Brother Mo and the fourth younger sister. If the old lady is unwilling, we Brother Mo will not force it. I will choose a woman from another family as my wife. Sister-in-law don’t have to be embarrassed, just report to the old lady truthfully.”

Li Wan dawdled and refused to go back, so Daiyu left her to eat at the mansion.

But after all, he couldn't avoid it. Seeing that it was getting late, Li Wan had no choice but to take a carriage and return to the mansion.

"What does Miss Lin say? I can't make a mistake this time, right?" Aunt Xue was also waiting for news in Jiamu's room. When she saw Li Wan coming back, she hurriedly asked.

"The eldest girl said she asked for it for Brother Mo, she is indeed the fourth girl, and there is nothing wrong with it."

"How is it possible? It must be that Zhen's daughter-in-law in the East Mansion had evil intentions. She was jealous of Yun's marriage and changed her to Si Yatou without authorization. You can explain it to Lin Yatou again. How can Si Yatou compare to Yun girl?" After Jia's mother finished speaking, she ordered her daughter-in-law to call Youshi to confront her in court.

"Old lady, I've said it several times. The eldest girl had no choice but to show me the letter from my aunt. She said it was true. What my aunt and aunt said clearly was the marriage between the Lin family and our Jia family. "Yun girl's surname is Shi. The eldest girl said that if the fourth girl is unwilling, she will not force her, and she will find another family for Brother Mo." Li Wan explained to everyone for a long time. It's not a matter of getting the name wrong.

"What a daughter-in-law, Zhen, I entrusted you to marry Yun girl, how did you become a fourth girl?" Jiamu asked, out of anger when she saw Youshi.

"Where did the old lady start from? Didn't she tell Brother Mo about Miss Yun? What does it have to do with our fourth girl?" Youshi said as if he didn't understand.

"You told Miss Lin the day before yesterday about Miss Yun? What did Miss Lin say?" Mother Jia asked in disbelief.

"It is indeed Miss Yun. At that time, the eldest girl just cried when she saw the handwriting of my aunt and aunt. I finally persuaded her, and only said that brothers and sisters should discuss it. I reported the truth to the old lady the day before yesterday." You Shi Seeing that Jia Mu was furious, she picked herself up completely.I was very happy in my heart, looking at the situation, the Lin family must have agreed to the fourth girl's marriage.
