Rebirth Of Proud Noble Daughter - C206
These were the words that Lin Shu had heard the most during this period of time. The thing that Madam Lian was most worried about now was even Yao’s marriage, it was true that her aunt was worried about her nephew.
Aunt Lian would come over to Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion whenever she had the time, and chattered along with Madam Lian. No matter which family’s young lady was from, no matter which family’s young lady was from, they couldn’t find a few that were suitable for her. Even if there really was one that was suitable, that year, they didn’t even need to borrow Yao to say they didn’t want to.
However, even with Yao being present, he had already figured out the personality of the Aunt Lian, and had long thought of a way to deal with it. No matter what Aunt Lian said, she only said one sentence, “If you like any girl from any family, you can just come and ask for her hand in marriage. In any case, I won’t admit that I’m her wife, and at that time, marrying that girl to be your companion would make you happy in your heart.”
When he said that, how would Aunt Lian dare to ruin another’s girl. She was also a mother, and her heart was fleshy. If another’s girl was a widow for life, wouldn’t she be hated to death?
Because of this, she secretly cried a few times with Madam Lian.
It was unknown how many times Lin Shu had said these exhortations, but now, she only said a few words, “… I’ve already told you before, no matter how much you and Aunt think of her, you must at least have the Brother Yao’s respect for her, for this kind of thing we need to talk about fate, if Cousin does not like her, what can we do? She said that my cousin has already become a High Scholar, and his Lian Family is wealthy, how can he be afraid that Brother Yao will not be able to marry him? ”
This year’s Spring Festival was over, and he had not reached the Hall Competition stage yet. However, Lian Yao had told Aunt Lian that he was confident that he would be able to make it to high school. At that time, it would be up to the emperor to arrange for him to become a government official.
The release of the list was at the beginning of April, and there would only be a few days left before the appointed time. When that time came, the Emperor would personally preside over the Hall Competition.
Actually, Lin Shu had said that she thought that it was really lucky to even have Yao in the first place. It happened once every three years, and once every three years, even when Yao had just become a High Scholar and was going to participate in the event, regardless of whether or not she could go to high school, it would be possible for her to gain some experience in the event of Yao being in the second place.
Although his rank was not close to the top, he was still someone who could be an official in the imperial court. His Lian Family was something that could be used by merchants for generations, and it was not easy for him to become an official old master, yet he took the initiative to ask the Emperor for permission to go to the Maoxian.
Where is Maoxian? In Sichuan Province, it was very remote and extremely poor. None of those high school students wanted to go there, some only wanted to find a casual job, some wanted to reach a high position, rise to the top, and some wanted to show their face in front of the emperor … There really was only one person who wanted to go to the Maoxian.
When Lin Shu heard this news, she was stunned. It didn’t seem like such a thing had happened in her previous life.
She only felt that she was slightly sorry to Aunt Lian, Aunt Lian treated her very well … It’s not the kind of fake one, it’s really good.
Among the elders, her mother was the best, and her second was the Aunt Lian.
Indeed, on the second day, Aunt Lian came to look for Madam Lian. She cried until she was out of breath, her eyes were red, she held onto Madam Lian’s hand, and choked with sobs: “Tell me, why is my life so bitter? She finally managed to get his youngest son out. Why would he want to go to that kind of place? It’s in a remote area with many bandits. If something really does happen, what do you think I should do with your brother? ”
Madam Lian was a bit anxious and did not sleep well the entire night, but after she talked to Lin Shu for a while before Aunt Lian came, she started to advise Aunt Lian instead, “Sister-in-law, the children are already old, no matter what, let them be. When we are old enough to be their elders, it will not be good for us to help them make decisions … At that time, no matter if this path is easy or not, the Rao Geer will choose to walk his own path. Gritting his teeth, he could only continue walking forward. Let’s just leave it as it is, since Rao Geer is still young, don’t you think so? ”
Lin Shu stood at the side, giving Aunt Lian tea and a handkerchief.
“I know, I know, if I knew earlier, I would have definitely made his marriage. Building a family, building a family, getting married first, consider it as him really going to the Maoxian, there is someone by his side that can take care of him, he only has one or two servants by his side, and if he goes to the Maoxian, I’m afraid he won’t even be able to eat a hot bowl of soup. Tell me, how can I not be worried?”
The Aunt Lian who was usually strong and strong, was actually so weak when mentioning her son. “I originally came to the capital for him, to you and Sister Shu, but now that he has gone to the Maoxian, the marriage agreement for Sister Shu has been set, what do you think I should do alone in the capital?”
She had originally planned to take a look at the capital to see if there was any suitable business there, after all Lian Family was such a big business, and doing business with Lian Family was not impossible, but after coming to the capital, she discovered that doing business with Lian Family was not that simple. It was not enough to have a mere Assistant Minister with Third Rank as a backer.
Moreover, Lin Pei had taken a lot of silver from their Lian Family. But if it really happened, Lin Pei’s official language would be smoother than anyone else’s … This Lin Pei was completely different from them, and now that she had understood, he had already written a letter back to Yangzhou. Even his uncle had to slowly cut off Lin Pei’s road to riches.
“There are some things that I, as an aunt, cannot say. If Sister-in-law thinks that the capital is good, then why not stay a few more days. If you think that the capital does not have Yangzhou, then go back to the Yangzhou.
“However, I will still help him keep a few things in mind when it comes to the marriage at Rao Geer. There are a lot of good girls, let’s not rush this!”
After thinking about it for a long time, on the day that Yao had set off, Lin Shu still did not send him off.
Although Lin Shu and the rest did not come, they still gave many things to Yao Gang. Some of them were prescriptions to treat cold, some were ointments to treat wounds, and some were snacks to the Ru Yi Zhai. In any case, all sorts of random things could be found on Yao Yao’s path.
As for Lin Hui, when it came to the day that Yao Yao was about to leave, First Madam had already sent people to stare at her down, afraid that she would cause trouble.
However, Lin Hui didn’t seem to know about this matter.
It just so happened that the next day was the day Lin Qian would be having her feast. Originally, Lin Shu and the others were betrothed ladies, so they shouldn’t go, but since they were Lin Qian’s cousins, they could be considered relatives of the Duke Andong Palace. Hence, there were not as many rules as the First Madam and her sisters.
When it came to wealth, the Duke Andong Palace was far from having access to Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion, and only after dozens of years, the first few people to become officials in the Duke Andong Palace were able to become rich, and their families gradually became rich. The furnishings in the hall were all yellow and pear-shaped, unable to bear a careful look.
However, the Duke Andong’s wife did not know where he got his confidence from, especially after these few years where his husband was able to speak a few words in front of the Emperor.
Even when Lin Shu and the others went to the front of Duke Andong’s wife to pay respects, she only made a sound from his nose.
On the other hand, when Lin Jia went over, she was holding Lin Jia’s hand and asking non-stop.
Lin Jia saw that the Duke Andong’s wife was not very good to his sister and his attitude towards her was not very good either.
When Lin Qian walked onto the road, everyone’s attention was drawn to him, she was dressed brilliantly, and was afraid that even though she had taken out all the good stuff, the pearls on her head were already filled to the brim with four or five, making him look like a nouveau riche.
When Duke Andong’s wife saw her current appearance, the despise in her eyes couldn’t help but show, but he thought that this was the first time his own wife was having a banquet, so he couldn’t say anything.
Lin Qian had entertained guests with the Second Madam before, so she did not reveal much about this.
With this, Duke Andong’s wife’s complexion became slightly better.
Not long after, Zhang Yuanqing also came over. Now that she was doted on by the Third Prince, he became like a proper Third Princess and even wore a set of red clothes.
However, when others saw this, they didn’t dare to say anything … One must know that the Elder Zhang had received orders from the Emperor to go to Fujian.
On the other hand, when Lin Jia saw it, she could not help but praise: “Lateral Consort Zhang is dressed so elegantly today! If I am not wrong, the embroidery on the clothes should be made with golden threads, right? ”
Because the gold was fragile, after the gold was dyed with the Juan silk, the golden silk was also a bit weaker than normal. If an ordinary embroidery lady were to embroider the golden silk, the thread would not be able to sew two needles.
So when embroidering clothes with golden threads, not only did he need to embroider his mother’s skills, but he also needed to thoroughly temper the embroidery process before taking them out.
Zhang Yuanqing slightly nodded his head and said, “Sister Lin really has good eyesight. Worthy of being someone from the First Princess Pingning Palace. These clothes were given to me by the empress …”
Lin Shu felt a little nauseous watching the two of them singing at the same time. She merely tugged on Lin Hui’s hand and said softly, “Let’s go out for a walk?”
