In the Su family, Zheng Yue'e was busy preparing for the betrothal gift and wanted to go to Beijing with her family to propose marriage. This time she wanted to wait for Su Sanlang to get married before returning.
In addition to preparing the betrothal gift, there are also many things to arrange at home.
Next year's Third Year's Day is the Chamber of Commerce, and the Su family has a lot to prepare for. In addition to having enough goods in stock, they also need to arrange the people.
In the capital, Lin Junruo did not go back to the Lin family after arriving at the palace. Instead, she invited her father to come to the palace.
When Lin Xunzhong heard the news about his second daughter, he stood up in shock.
"Father, you should know by now what kind of concubines the women in the house are, right?" Lin Junruo poured tea for her father: "This power is in your hands and you must cherish it. Nowadays, you can't put a grain of sand in your eyes."
Man, now that the marriage is brought up, our Lin family has to think about it."
Lin Xunzhong picked up the tea cup and could no longer control his hands shaking.
There are only two legitimate daughters. Not to mention the eldest daughter, if the younger daughter marries into the Su family, the Lin family will really have to think about where to go.
The most important thing about this world is that nine out of ten things are incomplete. My official career is smooth, but it is a pity that I have no successors. The children and grandchildren in the house are hard to describe.
"It's not the daughter's place to say these things, but they are her father's bloodline after all. If we can't bear them taking advantage of the situation to cause trouble, we have to think in the long run. It will be a good thing for the Su family to cultivate a capable person among the descendants." Lin Junruo.
explain.
Lin Xunzhong is now in his fifties. Although he cannot be said to be in his prime, he is extremely reluctant to give up his career if he wants to become an official.
Seeing that her father was still hesitant, Lin Junruo stopped trying to persuade her. She also knew that it was not easy for her father to get to where he is today, but the back house was not stable, and the Han family did not have the ambition to take charge of the back house. If something went wrong, it would be a big deal.
"How will the Su family handle this matter?" Lin Xunzhong asked.
Lin Junruo smiled: "Father, why should you worry about this matter? Although you have never met Mrs. Su, your daughter and Jun Yan are both familiar with the Su family. When Mrs. Su is doing things, you can wait with peace of mind, and you will not let others say
It’s not appropriate to come out.”
At this point, Lin Junruo paused for a moment before he had to say: "It's good that you know this. If the back house knows, it will definitely be self-defeating. When the time comes, no matter whether it is the Lin family or the Su family, it will be a small matter. I love the Su family very much now."
Seriously, if it makes you feel uncomfortable today, the Lin family will not be able to reap the benefits."
Speaking of the Su family, Lin Xunzhong had to admire him. Not only were he a member of the civil and military sect, but Master Xiao Su who was beside the emperor should not be underestimated. The people did not pay much attention to the capabilities of the imperial guards, but who in the court was not afraid of them?
Lin Xunzhong left the palace full of worries. On the way back, he was thinking about the affairs of the Lin family. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Han waiting at the door.
"Master." Mr. Han is in his early forties and is well-maintained. Although his appearance is not outstanding, he has an aura that is as light as a chrysanthemum. This is why Mr. Han can firmly take over as the head of the family after the death of Lin Xunzhong's wife.
One of the reasons for motherhood.
Lin Xunzhong hummed: "Is something wrong?"
Mrs. Han accompanied Lin Xunzhong to the study. After entering the study, she asked the servants to leave and brought a cup of tea to Lin Xunzhong: "The master has been busy with government affairs. As a wife, he put aside the affairs of the second lady.
It’s gone, now I’m afraid I won’t be able to hold it down anymore.”
Lin Xunzhong picked up the tea cup and brought it to his mouth, raised his eyes and glanced at Mr. Han, hiding it from himself. At this moment, it seemed that the news was really well-informed.
"The second young lady was walking outside, and the sudden pregnancy was a big or small matter. As a mother, I wanted to persuade her to abort the child to avoid humiliation to her reputation, but when I went to look for her, she had disappeared. It was not easy.
When we found it, alas, the children had already been born." Han sat next to her and whispered softly: "I can't do anything about it, and I met the Junxian in the house to discuss marriage, so I suppressed the matter.
"
Lin Xunzhong put down the tea cup: "That's it."
"But two days ago, my wife received news that the second young lady was picked up by the Su family. What should we do? Could it be that the child is a bloodline of the Su family?" Han looked at Lin Xunzhong's expressionless expression.
He looked a little worried: "Master, if this is really the case, the young lady of the Lin family must not be despised by others."
Lin Xunzhong nodded: "It makes sense."
Han felt that she was holding her breath and could not go up or down. She was worried: "When the emperor opened Enke, Junxian was considered a disciple of the emperor. Now he is still at home. Master, can you please invite the Su family?"
Help find a vacant son?"
"Okay, you can go back. I know this well." Lin Xunzhong sent Han away, with his eldest daughter's words in his mind.
The Han family was beating around the bush and wanted to find a position for Jun Xian, but what could the Su family do? Not to mention the Su family, the people in the court believed that those who are capable should be promoted, and those who are capable will not be buried. Likewise,
, Those who want to take over the porcelain work without diamonds can only invite disaster.
The biggest regret in my life is that my first wife only gave birth to two daughters. The three sons in the house are all from the Han family, and their qualifications are mediocre. Even if I look at it myself, they will not be able to enter the officialdom.
However, all three sons are obsessed with official careers, and so is the Han family. It seems that he really has to consider becoming an official.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival in August, Chen Yu left the family affairs to Su Cheng and Min Yuchan, and took Lin Junyan and his daughters-in-law to Beijing.
Sihai Freight had already transported part of the betrothal gift to Beijing. Chen Yu didn’t bring much with him this time. He was chatting and laughing along the way. Su Fangfei and Su Yunuan brought Nian back home, and Nian Ci and You’an came back.
I couldn't be happier, after all, it was the first time for Fang Fei and Yu Nuan to travel far away.
The daughters-in-law took turns coming to Chen Yu's carriage to play mahjong with Chen Yu to relieve his boredom. The servants waited on the young master.
There was no need to rush too much, lest everyone get tired and panic.
Just when they were coming to the capital, I don't know when there were rumors in the capital that the second lady of the Lin family and Prime Minister Su had a secret affair and had children.
When Lin Junruo got the news, she immediately went back to the Lin family, went straight to the back house and slapped the Han family twice, and then went into the palace to see the Queen Mother to express her love.
Here, Su Sanlang also came to the emperor and explained the twists and turns of the matter.
Xiao Qiyu naturally wanted to side with Ya's father. Speaking of the fact that the flood control was planned by others, in the final analysis, was it not to do things for the imperial court?
"Your Majesty, there are rumors circulating that grandma is on her way to Beijing with someone. In any case, the Lin Mansion must have an agenda for spreading such rumors. Let's see what happens." Su Qianxiu said.
Xiao Qiyu looked at Su Sanlang: "My father, you can rest assured. On the day of your wedding, you will be bound by decree. Except for Lin Xunzhong, everyone in the Lin family will be embarrassed. I know it well."
Su Sanlang shook his head helplessly: "Qianxiu is right, there are many people staring at the Su family, but not many can act like the Lin family. Let's wait and see."
In October, Chen Yu and his family arrived in the capital. The carriage stopped outside Su Sanlang's Prime Minister's Mansion. When a group of women and children got out of the car, they heard someone shouting: "Did you see that? Second Miss Lin Mansion."
We’re back together! What a shame!”
Chen Yu paused, glanced into the crowd, raised his hand and took Lin Junyan's hand, and slowly walked into the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
It really doesn’t stop! The Lin Mansion’s back house is also a piece of shit!
