Lin Yun chatted with Ning Heng for a while, then stood up and said goodbye.

Ning Heng persuaded him: "Brother Yun, just have a meal at my place and then go back."

Lin Yun said with a smile: "Today is my engagement day. I am going to the academy again tomorrow. I have to go to the girl's house first and say goodbye to her."

Ning Heng said in surprise: "Brother Yun is getting engaged today? I wonder whose girl it is?"

"She is a girl from the Qin family of the Ministry of Industry's repairman, a great matchmaker protected by your ancestors."

Ning Heng smiled and said: "That is a great joy. Later I will ask someone to prepare a congratulatory gift and send it to your house as soon as possible."

Lin Yun waved his hand and said, "I'm going to the academy tomorrow. If you want to give a gift, just wait until I get married in the future."

Ning Heng said anxiously: "How is that possible? This gift must be given. I will send someone to deliver it to your house early tomorrow morning."

Seeing that Ning Heng insisted on sending it away, Lin Yun did not refuse. Anyway, they were almost the same age, so he could just send it back when the other party got engaged.

After coming out of Prince Xuan's Mansion, Lin Yun did not wait for the old miracle doctor, but directly took Zhong Yi and Xiao Mo on horseback to the Qin Mansion in the east of the city.

…

Qin Mansion, back house.

After sending the official matchmaker away, Qin Ye returned to the living room and sat down, drinking tea and thinking about his thoughts.

Since accepting the care of Prince Yoshitaka, he has been living in anxiety almost every day. Now that Keqing girl finally has someone to belong to, he can breathe a sigh of relief.

However, the young man named Lin Yun seems to be a little frivolous. There is no reason why he would come to see the woman before the marriage is decided.

"I will teach him a lesson someday, let him study hard and get rid of his frivolous bad habits, so as not to miss that girl Keqing."

Qin Ye was thinking about something when he suddenly saw Butler Tao running in and reporting to him: "Master, our uncle is here."

As if his butt was burned by fire, Qin Ye stood up and said: "Nonsense, the marriage has just been finalized, why is he here again?"

"My uncle said that he will go to the academy to study tomorrow, and he wanted to come and say goodbye to our girl."

Qin Ye said anxiously: "This is unreasonable. Go tell him and ask him to go back quickly and study with peace of mind."

"Sir, my uncle has brought many gifts. Do you want to see them?"

"Um."

Qin Ye stopped being angry when he heard this and looked at Butler Tao with confusion.

Butler Tao shouted loudly toward the door: "Bring it in quickly."

Not long after, more than a dozen servants came in carrying several large wooden boxes.

After the servant put down the box and exited, Butler Tao smiled at Qin Ye and said, "Sir, our uncle saw that life in the house was difficult, so he sent you a thousand taels of silver, ten bolts of silk and satin, and thirty bolts of linen.

There are also various leather clothes, as well as tableware, tea sets and other daily necessities.”

After Butler Tao finished speaking, he stepped forward to open a mahogany box and saw rows of silver ingots neatly stacked inside the box.

Qin Ye's eyes widened when he saw it.

Over the years, due to special reasons, he has been keeping his tail between his legs. Although he holds a plum job as a construction engineer in the Ministry of Industry, he does not dare to have the slightest thought of corruption, which makes his life very tight. Now with this

A pen of silver finally solved his urgent need.

Butler Tao opened another box, revealing dazzling fine silk and satin. Butler Tao smiled and said: "Sir, our uncle also said that if you need anything in the future, please send someone to tell him, and he will try his best.

I’ll help you get it done.”

"A good son-in-law is interested,"

Seeing the satisfied look on Qin Ye's face, Butler Tao hurriedly said: "Sir, please take a look at the matter that my uncle wants to see our girl~"

Qin Ye said with a smile: "It's not like meeting them once. You go and make arrangements for them."

"Yes, sir."

Butler Tao turned around to leave, but Qin Ye said from behind him: "Tao Yi, please give the uncle's Geng Tie to the girl, and then ask the maid to serve her carefully."

"Old servant understands."

…

In the study, Qin Zhong held a writing brush in his hand, lying on the desk and carefully reading the post.

Next to him, Qin Keqing was holding a piece of paper and was reading it carefully. What was written on the paper was the study plan Lin Yun made for Qin Zhong, which made her feel very novel after reading it.

Just as she was looking at it, there was a sudden rush of footsteps outside the door.

Qin Keqing looked up and saw her maid Baozhu pushing open the door and walking in, saying anxiously to her: "Girl, I just heard from the servants that an official matchmaker came to our house to propose marriage to the master."

"ah!"

Qin Keqing exclaimed, then stood up and said, "Baozhu, what did the master say?"

Baozhu: "I heard that the master has already agreed to this marriage and even changed the marriage certificate."

Qin Keqing's face changed drastically when she heard this. She opened her mouth to say something, but she swallowed the words when they reached her lips.

Qin Zhong raised his head and asked Baozhu: "Sister Baozhu, who wants to propose marriage to my sister?"

Baozhu: "I don't know who this slave is."

Qin Zhong looked at Qin Keqing and said, "Sister, can I go and find out for you?"

Qin Keqing said angrily: "If you dare to talk too much about your post, I will punish you with ten more posts."

"oh,"

Qin Zhong shrank his neck in fear and quickly lowered his head to continue writing the post.

At this moment, a man's voice sounded outside the door, "Is the girl in there?"

Baozhu said hurriedly: "It's Butler Tao."

Qin Keqing walked to the door, looked outside, and saw Butler Tao holding a Geng Tie and smiling at her: "The girl is very happy."

Baozhu walked out from behind Qin Keqing and asked Butler Tao: "Old steward, who proposed marriage to our girl?"

Butler Tao smiled and said, "You have all seen that person. He is Lin Xiucai who came here yesterday."

"ah!"

Baozhu and Qin Zhong both exclaimed in surprise, while Qin Keqing was stunned, but his heart became much more relaxed in an instant.

Qin Zhong put down the brush in his hand, ran out and asked Butler Tao: "Old steward, are you saying that Brother Lin wants to be my sister-in-law?"

Butler Tao nodded and said with a smile: "Exactly, Mr. Lin is from Suzhou, and his family is engaged in silk and spice trading. His uncle is Lin Ruhai, who is a former convict and is currently the salt inspector of Huaihe and Huaihe Rivers. Mr. Lin is coming to Beijing this time.

, is escorting Lin Ruhai’s wife and daughter to Beijing to visit relatives. His aunt is the daughter of Mrs. Shi of Rongguo Mansion.”

Qin Zhong: "Old housekeeper, Brother Lin doesn't seem to be older than my sister, right?"

"Mr. Lin is thirteen this year, three years younger than our girl. However, this marriage has been decided by the matchmaker of Prince Xuan."

After Butler Tao finished speaking, he handed the Geng Tie in his hand to Qin Zhong, turned around and left.

As soon as he left, Baozhu said anxiously: "Girl, what should we do? That Lin Xiucai is from Suzhou. If the girl marries him, won't she have to live in Suzhou?"

Qin Zhong handed the Geng Tie to his sister and said, "I think Brother Lin is good except that he is a little younger. It would be great to be my sister-in-law."

Qin Keqing blushed and took the Geng Tie, stuffed it into her sleeve, and said to Baozhu, "Let's go back first."

Qin Zhong heard this and said happily: "Sister, then I don't need to post this post, right?"

Qin Keqing turned around and said: "If you are too talkative, add three more, and you can rest only when you are done."

"ah!"

Qin Zhong walked back dejectedly, and just as he was about to sit down, he heard his servant shouting from outside: "Master, Mr. Lin wants to see you, do you see him or not?"

Qin Zhong glanced at his sister and didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Qin Keqing said coquettishly: "If you want to see me, go and see me. What do you want me to do?"

After saying that, she took the orb and left.

Qin Zhong said hurriedly: "Qing'er, go and bring Brother Lin in."

"Okay, I'll pick you up right now."
