Chapter Twelve Proposal

"Dadada..."

"Dad, you call me?..." Mingyue said as she pushed open the door and stepped into the study. In addition to Ming Xiu, there were Lin Yuantu and his wife Jia.

Ming Xiu and Lin Yuantu seemed to be in the mood to have a good time. When Mingyue pushed open the door, there were still happy smiles on their faces.

This is the first time in several months that Mingyue has seen such a bright smile on Mingxiu's face. Then Mingyue bowed to Lin Yuantu and Jia, "Mingyue has met Uncle Lin and Aunt!"

"Yue'er doesn't have to be polite!" Lin Yuantu looked at Mingyue with a kind smile on his face and kept nodding, "Yue'er, uncle is watching you grow up. When you were young, you came to play with Xiang'er every now and then.

Once, Xianger Sisi and she ran to the deserted mountains in the north of the city and got lost and didn't come back overnight. Our two families were looking for the whole city...

When I found you, you limped down from the mountain with Sisi on your back. Xiang'er's bastard kept crying. At that time, I knew that Yue'er, you will be more successful than Xianger in the future...

Brother Ming, look, I was right back then? In recent years, the Ming family’s business has been booming with Yue'er. But my Lin family... is regressing little by little! If Xiang'er is half as promising as Yue'er, I can close my eyes with peace of mind..."

"If Brother Lin doesn't say anything, don't keep praising him. This child doesn't praise him, he won't be able to do it right once he praises him..." Although Ming Xiu said this, his proud look of stroking his beard was obviously very useful.

Mingyue stood on the side and lowered her head, but she muttered in her heart. The current situation is so strange and depressing, Lin Yuantu came to praise him. Even if he thanked him for saving Lin Sisi, there was no need to do this, right?

"In the past, Yue'er had been walking around often, but she has been walking less in the past three years... Sisi sometimes said that Brother Yue hasn't been here for a long time..."

"What are the words of the master? Yue'er has grown up and is busy helping Brother Ming. It's not like our Xianger, you know how to have fun all day long..."

"That's true!"

Listening to the old couple singing and reconciling, Mingyue muttered even more. What is this...what do you want to do?

"Brother Ming, if I remember correctly... Yue'er should be nineteen years old this year, right?" Suddenly, Lin Yuantu asked with some thoughtfulness while touching his beard.

"Well, I'm nineteen years old. In a few months, Yue'er can perform the crown ritual..." Ming Xiu returned hesitantly, but his eyes were secretly aiming at Mingyue.

"Yes... In the blink of an eye, the children are all grown up... At the age of nineteen, you can get married. Brother Ming, you and I are friends of eight blessed families, and everyone knows the relationship between the Ming family and the Lin family. I have a heartless invitation here, hoping that our two families can become a family. I wonder what Brother Ming wants?"

"Hiss--" Ming Xiu's hand shook and he immediately pulled off several of his beards.

Mingyue, who lowered her head and remained silent, suddenly had a glimmer of light in her eyes, "Here's here..."

Mingyue’s most worried thing is that she has come. She has praised her all the time before and brought up old things that he had forgotten, and insisted on Lin Sisi. At that time, Mingyue had a premonition, but now, the premonition has come true.

Mingyue was not very impressed by Lin Sisi. Since she came through time, she rarely walked around the Lin family. Lin Sisi is a famous sick lady. She hasn't heard about what happened to Miss Lin's family in a month. The people of Xiantai Mansion are still a little uncomfortable.

In my memory, Mingyue did have a good relationship with Lin Sisi when she was young. Lin Sisi was three years younger than Mingyue. When she was young, she often followed Brother Yue's call from her brother Yue behind her butt.

Although I was also a weak scholar before traveling through time, I was only a little weak, but it was not as exaggerated as Miss Lin. Miss Lin was indeed becoming more and more beautiful as she grew, but to be honest, Mingyue didn't want to take the plate of this medicine jar.

Perhaps Ming Xiu also had concerns about this, and after listening to Lin Yuantu’s proposal, he did not make a statement for a long time.

Lin Sisi is not blamed for being weak and sick, and she never thought about it. If Mingyue and Lin Sisi get married, the burden will fall on the Ming family. With the Ming family's financial resources, this was not a big deal.

But Mingyue is the only seed of the Ming family. Lin Sisi's physique is a problem whether she can have a child. Besides, even if she can have a child, if the child's body is in line with her mother, wouldn't the Ming family be ruined?

Ming Xiu raised his head and glanced at Lin Yuantu with a vague look. He and Lin Yuantu are brothers who have been sworn brothers. Do you deserve me, my elder brother?

"Brother Ming, I know what you are worried about. Half a month ago, even if I like Yue'er, I will only accept him as an adopted son and will not let Sisi interfere with Yue'er.

But it’s strange that since the serious illness half a month ago, thanks to the ginseng you sent, Sisi’s illness is not only cured by medicine, but also her body bones are getting better and better every day. I specially asked Dr. Duan to see him two days ago.

Doctor Duan said that Sisi's pulse is peaceful and peaceful, which is a great auspicious pulse. People with this pulse will definitely be free from illness, disaster, and prolong life. If you don't believe it, please ask Doctor Duan to give Sisi another pulse!"

After hearing Lin Yuantu’s explanation, Ming Xiu’s face suddenly became better, “Brother Lin’s words, how can I not believe it? Sisi’s child is also suffering from life. She has been weak and sick since childhood and has been wandering around the gates of hell so many times…”

"No, my daughter is pitiful..." Jia also said while wiping her tears, "I got angry when I was pregnant with her, and it was only a few taels of pounds when I was born. It was said that I was destined to have a relationship with the Ming family. If I had no ginseng from the Ming family, I would probably not be able to overcome this final hurdle...

Fortunately, it’s better now. I just went to Baoquan Temple two days ago and asked Master Huiyuan to criticize his life. The master also said that Sisi had many disasters before she was sixteen years old and had many misfortunes.

But as long as you pass the last great disaster at the age of sixteen, you can avoid disasters and avoid disasters, and have more blessings and longevity. If you cannot avoid them, you will not only suffer disasters, but also be implicated..."

"Madam, don't say anything when everything is over!" Lin Yuantu suddenly interrupted Jia's words, turned his head and said to Ming Xiu with a smile on his face, "Brother Ming, I know you have concerns in your heart, but I only have such a daughter.

Moreover, I have always been optimistic about Yue'er since I was a child and knew that Yue'er was a good and filial child. If Yue'er could marry Sisi, I would use the six shops of the Lin family as a dowry. Moreover, if Sisi was in good health and had no money for a year, Brother Ming could take a concubine for Yue'er to continue the incense of the Ming family. I, Lin Yuantu, would never have a word of gossip!"

"Where is Brother Lin's words? Sisi is well-educated and well-behaved. If it weren't... that would be a good match for ordinary people. Don't mention the dowry. Brother Lin is interested, just come here... What other words do you and my brothers say..."

etc--

Mingyue's heart skipped a beat in an instant. How could this be finalized in just a few words?

"Cough cough--" Quickly, Mingyue covered her mouth and coughed lightly to show her existence.

"Look, we two are just looking at our own thoughts and have not asked Yue'er yet. Yue'er has always been independent. Yue'er, what do you think about this?" Lin Yuantu stared at him with a smile as if he was looking at his son-in-law. His eyes made Mingyue feel a little creepy.

Mingyue knew in her heart that Lin Yuantu really optimistic about herself and liked her. But... she still had some grudges in her heart that she married Lin Sisi and Mingyue.

"This... Uncle, Sisi and I have known each other since childhood, so their character and appearance are naturally the best choice. But over the years, we have been a little neglected. I think... it's best for the two to get married, or... don't worry, let us both go everywhere first?"

Although this world is also a feudal dynasty, the people are still quite open. There is no saying that women cannot show up in public, and there is no need for parents to order them and matchmakers to do so.

Many young people with conditions are in a free relationship. Even if they are not in a free relationship, they will arrange a blind date to get to know each other.

The reason why Lin Yuantu was so anxious to finalize with Ming Xiu was mainly because Mingyue and Lin Sisi had already known each other. In his opinion, blind dates and other things have passed. I don’t know if they are so familiar with each other.

However, Lin Yuantu did not refute Mingyue said this. After thinking about it, he nodded silently.

"What Yue'er said is reasonable. After all, playing together when she was a child is definitely different from growing up. Sisi rarely goes out in the past few years. Now she has recovered, so it's okay to go out for a walk occasionally. Yue'er, you should also come to visit her often. I have rarely seen you in recent years."

"Okay uncle—"

"It's getting late, Brother Ming, then let's say goodbye first. For younger generations, you and I have to worry more about it..."

"That's natural, Brother Lin, please-"

He smiled and sent Lin Yuantu out of the house. It was not until the carriage disappeared at the corner of the intersection that Ming Xiu slowly closed his smile. He turned his head and looked at Mingyue, "Yue'er, come with me."

The two returned to the study room, Ming Xiu poured a cup of tea and took a sip, "Yue'er, do you don't like Lin Sisi?"

"It's not that I don't like it, nor is it like it. My impression of Miss Lin... was still when I was a child. So I mentioned the marriage rashly, to be honest, and I was just a little resistant..." Mingyue didn't play the edge and replied honestly.

"Isn't it because of Lin Sisi's physical problems?"

"I have some concerns, but when I saw Miss Lin a few days ago, I saw that she looked rosy and full of blood, and she didn't look like she was in a bad state. Perhaps what Uncle Lin said might be true. But marriage matters should be more cautious.

In addition, the crisis of the four major gangs outside has not been resolved, and the Sendai Mansion is now in turmoil. It is indeed not appropriate to talk about this matter at this time, right? Why don’t you wait for the future and talk about it later?"

"You have always been independent, and I will not be your ruler in this matter. You are the only son in the family, and the foundation of the Ming family will be handed over to you in the future. So you can do your marriage by yourself.

If you really have a heart, and tell your father, you don’t have to choose Lin Sisi. The lady of the lady from the Immortal Palace, you are worthy of it..."

"Yes, the child knows it, nothing is wrong, the child takes his leave..." For some reason, what appeared in Mingyue's mind at this moment was Miaoyin. I haven't been to the Qinyin Chess Club for a long time, and Mingyue suddenly had the urge to go out.
