Chapter 19 Thank you!
He practices hard, is thrifty, kind-hearted, righteous, and responsible.
This is Zhao Lingyin's evaluation of Lin Xiu since such a long time of contact.
She personally experienced his hard work in practice.
In the royal capital, other dandy eat in Tianxianglou, Zhaiyuelou, etc., with all kinds of delicacies and delicious wines. They can count two or even dozens of taels of silver for a meal. They eat vegetarian noodles worth three cents a bowl, which is his thrift.
As for him treating the beggar to dinner, he gave the woman money without any doubt. It was not his waste, but it just showed that he was kind-hearted.
The Qing officials and officials seek justice for the people and are not afraid of power, which shows that he is righteous and Zhaiyuelou put down his identity and earned money to support his family, which reflects his responsibility and responsibility.
There is another thing that Zhao Lingyin didn't say, that is Lin Xiu's shortcomings. In addition to awakening a little late in the magic, he was also a little lustful, but in Zhao Lingyin's opinion, this is not a problem.
As long as he has seen his sister, there will be no other women in his eyes.
She has such confidence.
Tag!
The middle-aged man's chopsticks fell on the table. His daughter's evaluation of Lin Xiu surprised him. He had never heard such an evaluation in her mouth.
After Zhao Lingyin made an evaluation of Lin Xiu, she explained each one again.
The middle-aged man picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and then smiled and said, "It seems that Lin Ting taught a good son. Such a person is rare among the powerful and noble children of the royal capital."
Zhao Lingyin looked at him and asked, "So, does your father want to abide by that engagement?"
The middle-aged man nodded and said, "Originally, what I thought was that if Lin Xiu, like other playboys in Wangdu, had poor character, even if he didn't want the reputation of the Zhao family, I would cancel this engagement. But as you said, his character is so noble, how can our Zhao family speak without trust?"
Zhao Lingyin didn't say anything else. She originally strongly opposed this engagement.
She knew most of the powerful and noble children in the royal capital. She believed that none of these people was worthy of her sister, but as a woman, no matter how talented she was or how noble her status was, she would eventually get married.
Among all the men I knew, if I had to choose one, it would be Lin Xiu.
It is obvious to all that he is good at his character. Even if his talent for cultivation is a little worse, as long as he urges him more, his ultimate achievement will not be too bad.
After deep thought, the middle-aged man stood up and said to Zhao Lingyin: "Since that's the case, you and I will go to the Lin family."
...
Lin Xiu and Sun Dali spent a full two hours shopping on the street, doing a lot of things and buying a lot of things.
He used to be very resistant to shopping. It was a helpless move to accompany girls to go shopping. If they did not satisfy their desire to shop, they would not discuss life in depth with him.
But if you take the initiative to go shopping, your feelings will be completely different.
He bought a jade tobacco pipe for the doorman Lao Huang, a gold hairpin for A Yue, and two high-quality silk cloths for the cook Wang Aunt. Even Sun Dali got a pair of steel arm guards.
When Lin's Mansion was at its worst, everyone who insisted on staying was his family, so he naturally had to be more attentive to his family, so Lin Xiu prepared gifts for each of them.
It was already afternoon when Lin Xiu and Sun Dali returned home.
As soon as he walked into the house, he saw several figures coming out of the room. Two of them were Ping Anbo and Mrs. Ping Anbo, the other two, one was Zhao Lingyin, and the last one was a middle-aged man.
The man was about the same age as his father, Ping Anbo. He looked gentle and friendly, and felt a familiar feeling between his eyebrows and eyes.
When Uncle Ping An saw Lin Xiu, he hurriedly said, "Xiu'er is back. Haven't you come forward to see your Uncle Zhao yet."
Lin Xiu instantly guessed the identity of the middle-aged man and couldn't help but feel happy. Could it be that the Zhao family has come to break the engagement? This is really great. He can't wait to ride a horse!
Lin Xiu strode forward and said to the middle-aged man: "I have met Uncle Zhao."
The middle-aged man looked at him with admiration and nodded, "Not bad."
He didn't say much, but just smiled and said to the Ping Anbo couple: "We'll go back first and come to visit again next day."
Ping Anbo and his wife sent the middle-aged man out of Lin's mansion. Lin Xiu stood there blankly because she was too happy, with her mouth raised, which shows that he was in a very happy mood at the moment.
Finally, this hindering marriage finally ended. From now on, no one can stop him from galloping!
Zhao Lingyin looked at him and asked lightly: "Are you happy?"
Lin Xiu couldn't hide his excitement and said, "Of course, you don't have to have any burden. I don't blame you at all. Although the engagement has been cancelled, everyone is still friends..."
Zhao Lingyin frowned: "What kind of engagement is cancelled, why should we cancel it?"
Lin Xiu looked at her frowning brows, and suddenly a feeling of something bad suddenly surged in her heart, and asked, "What are you here today?"
Zhao Lingyin said: "For the sake of your marriage with your sister, my sister is not in the capital now. When she comes back, it's time to let you get married."
It seemed like thunder exploded in his ears, and Lin Xiu's mind was blank.
"What, what..."
Zhao Lingyin looked at him and asked, "Don't you want to?"
Lin Xiu remembered that he said he was unwilling to be pressed against the wall last time and he swallowed and asked in confusion: "No, I'm just curious. Your sister is so outstanding, marrying a prince or a nobleman, or even a prince is enough. Why do you decide me..."
Hearing Lin Xiu mention those people, Zhao Lingyin glanced at the corner of her mouth, without hiding the disdain in her eyes, and said, "They are not worthy."
Lin Xiu was puzzled: "I'm worthy?"
Seeing Zhao Lingyin looking at him with a strange look, Lin Xiucai realized that his words just now were indeed a bit cheap and explained: "I mean, my family has fallen, and I am not worthy of you..."
Zhao Lingyin said: "These are not important."
Lin Xiu asked helplessly: "What's important?"
Zhao Lingyin said: "You are a good person and have passed my test."
“…”
Lin Xiu didn't expect that he would be sent a good person card one day. He asked with a confused look on his face: "What's the test?"
Zhao Lingyin said: "Although you have a little less talent in your cultivation, you are hard-working, thrifty, kind-hearted, righteous, responsible and responsible, and can be considered a good person."
Lin Xiu looked surprised.
He didn't expect that Lingyin's evaluation of him was so high. She understood him, but she actually understood him!
Lin Xiu's face turned slightly red and said embarrassedly: "Foreign awards, fore awards, I just did a little insignificant thing..."
Zhao Lingyin looked at him and said, "It's insignificant to you, not to them. If you didn't stand up, that girl who died in vain would suffer an unjust injustice after her death."
Lin Xiu explained: "Someone always has to stand up, I just can't stand it..."
Zhao Lingyin nodded and said, "There is that woman. If it weren't for you, that child would be in danger of his life."
Lin Xiu said: "There are only a few taels of silver on the left. It is easy for me to make money. Even if I am cheated, I will not lose much. A few taels of silver may save a life, which is quite cost-effective."
Zhao Lingyin said again: "There is something I can't understand."
"What's up?"
"Why are you willing to spend a few taels of silver to treat the beggar to dinner with a bowl of vegetarian noodles?"
Lin Xiu smiled and said, "Their lives are in a daze and hopeless way. Isn't it interesting to give them an unexpected surprise occasionally?"
Zhao Lingyin was speechless for a moment and could only say, "You are such a strange person."
Lin Xiu looked at Zhao Lingyin, smiled, and his heart was filled with joy.
In this strange world, it is a blessing to have someone understand him so much.
Unfortunately, she is a woman. If he were a man, Lin Xiu would definitely be a disciple of him and lead her to be a confidant in life.
But soon Lin Xiu couldn't be happy. He stared at Zhao Lingyin and asked, "Is this why the Zhao family is willing to marry your sister to me?"
Zhao Lingyin glanced at him and said, "Otherwise, you should thank me. If it weren't for me, my father would have planned to cancel the engagement."
