When the news reached Lin Jinrong's ears, it was already time to light the lamp.
Lizhi couldn't help but sigh: "After so many choices, I chose a marriage like this." Apart from being a legitimate daughter and having both parents, she really didn't want anything. She couldn't be compared with Sun Hongli at all.
"It can only be said that everyone has their fate." Lin Jinrong was actually confused. It was not that she didn't know about this earlier, but she didn't know that the Heng family was in this situation. She also couldn't understand what Mr. Lin San was thinking. This Velveteen was completely inconsistent with
Mr. Lin San must have a good family background, a generous dowry, and a good character. We can only suspect that Aunt Huang found out about this person herself and got it through Mr. Lin San, or maybe, in fact, they
He hid some things from Mr. Tao in private.
Before Lin Jinrong could figure it out, Aunt Huang came and presented her sweet-scented osmanthus balls as usual.
Although Aunt Huang applied powder, she couldn't hide the haggard look on her brows. Aunt Gui, Li Zhi and others came up to congratulate her, but they didn't see how happy she was, and she smiled very reluctantly. Lin Jinrong was secretly surprised, thinking that Aunt Huang was like this
I am not necessarily satisfied with this marriage. Could it be that Mr. Lin San made it happen by himself? So I was a little curious: "My aunt is very happy. My wife said that she will have a hairpin soon."
Aunt Huang reluctantly held the corner of her lips and smiled, and said cautiously: "I want to ask the girl for help. I told the girl earlier that I wanted to share the worries of the master and his wife. The girl took pity on the slave and even helped the slave to change his clothes."
I have returned the money and earned some money. Now is the time to use that money. I also ask the girl to be a good person and help the slave to pass the money in front of the wife."
There are fixed rules for the marriage of young masters and girls of the Lin family. The dowry of a girl is double that of the young master, and the dowry of a direct descendant is nearly twice as high as that of a concubine. Lin Yizhi is a concubine, and his father-in-law’s fortune will not exceed a thousand guan, and
Not all of this money will be used for wedding wealth, but also for the gifts for the four seasons and eight festivals and wedding banquet expenses. In order to make the wedding beautiful, matrons usually let the wedding banquet take up the majority. What really falls on the wedding wealth is not
In the future, how can Lin Yizhi live a good life just by relying on the Ping family's several hundred acres of land and one shop? He will have to rely on others to supplement him.
Frankly speaking, Lin Jinrong agreed with Aunt Huang's approach, but was unwilling to be the lobbyist for Aunt Huang. What she and Lin Jinyin originally planned was that Aunt Huang would ask Mr. Lin San to come forward, as if it was Mr. Lin San who was helping Lin.
Yizhi's support will allow Mr. Lin San to also support Lin Shenzhi in the future. Now that Aunt Huang wants her to come forward, how can she make Tao mad to death? So she smiled and said: "I hope that fifth brother will be well."
Yes, but it’s not appropriate to talk about this matter on behalf of my aunt. Why don’t my aunt go and ask her father to come forward and say that he subsidized it? Then everything will be solved, right?"
It's okay that she didn't mention Mr. Lin San. When she mentioned Mr. Lin San, Aunt Huang's tears flowed down uncontrollably. She covered her face with a handkerchief. It took her a long time to catch her breath, but she refused to even mention Mr. Lin San.
No, he just said: "I would rather ask the girl to ask you. If the girl refuses to say anything, I understand your difficulties. I will go to the wife and tell you. If the wife is angry and wants to punish the slave, I will admit it."
Lin Jinrong couldn't help but sneer: "Auntie, are you threatening me? Has my aunt fallen asleep before it gets dark? Just tell me, even if there is a quarrel, no one will even say anything wrong about my wife, or ask where the money comes from.
My aunt will probably say that it was given by the master, so why did the master give her so much money? What great achievements has my aunt made? I remember that a few days ago, my aunt was still crying about poverty."
"No, miss, you misunderstood!" Aunt Huang sobbed and whispered: "The miss is the clouds in the sky, and the slave is the mud on the soles of your feet. How can I dare to threaten you? Even ten brave slaves would not dare to borrow a slave. Slave
It's just that I have no choice but to do this, and I know that the girl is soft-hearted and sensible, so I have to do this. Girl, if you let me go this time, I will remember your love for the rest of my life."
Desperate? Does Aunt Huang's words imply anything? She would rather treat her with both soft and hard tactics than ask Mr. Lin San. What does this mean? Although Aunt Huang tried her best to pretend to be pitiful, she could also tell that she was really sad. Lin Jinrong was silent for a long time.
, after weighing it again and again, Fang said: "When does Auntie want me to tell my wife?"
Aunt Huang hurriedly said: "You can do whatever is convenient for you. I have a total of five hundred taels of silver in my hand, but I just want to leave it to the fifth young master as a betrothal gift, and I don't want to use it for the sake of honor."
As long as the wife agrees, this money will be given to the fifth young master by the wife."
"Let me think about it." Lin Jinrong didn't expect that she would really let go at the critical moment. After thinking about it, she realized that she had to let go. Just imagine, if Aunt Huang didn't take the money at this time
He came out and passed the Ming Road, but kept it for Lin Yizhi to quietly subsidize Lin Yizhi in the future after he got married. He could only use the Ping family's dowry to talk things over, but that was equivalent to giving money to the Ping family. If
If Mr. Ping is easy to talk to, that's good. If Mr. Ping is not easy to get along with, the family will be uneasy. Therefore, it is wisest to let go at this time. It seems that you will suffer a small loss, but in the long run, you will take advantage.
Seeing her answer, Aunt Huang felt that the weight in her heart was half gone, so she stood up and left. After leaving the door and returning to the room, she cried again.
Lin Jinrong sat in silence for a moment, then got up and went to look for Lin Jinyin. The wedding day was approaching, and Lin Jinyin was inspecting the dowry she had embroidered under the lamp. When she saw something happy, the corners of her lips could not help but rise. When she saw her sister suddenly coming, she couldn't help but
Somewhat shy, he pretended to be calm and ordered Loquat to put the things away, and asked: "Why are you here?"
Lin Jinrong teased her: "I was afraid that my sister would hurt her eyes because she stayed up late doing needlework, so I came here to see if there was anything I could do for you. I can't do anything big, but I can't give away small handkerchiefs, socks, shoes, etc.
I can help you with something like that."
Lin Jinyin spat: "What are you talking about? Didn't Lychee just bring over a bunch of handkerchiefs this morning? Say, what's the matter?"
Lin Jinrong stopped chatting and talked about Aunt Huang: "It seems that she is not satisfied with this marriage. Her sadness and disappointment are not fake. I am thinking, is there anything in this that we are not satisfied with?"
Do you know?"
Lin Jinyin muttered: "This marriage is indeed a bit bad, not as good as the ones my mother saw before, but fortunately it is not too outrageous, just passable. But you are right, there must be a reason for this.
It's a pity that his father didn't tell her. Mother Gong checked and found out that the person beside him didn't know the reason... That's all. It's done. There's no need to ask any more questions. The truth will come to light when the time comes. Just promise her that, and let me do the talking. I want to go out.
Mother feels sorry for me and will not refute me. If you try to persuade me from the side, things will be over in peace."
"That's what I mean. Otherwise, I'm really afraid that my mother won't be able to bear it anymore and there will be another scene. She really knows her mother's temper and knows that her mother doesn't bother to swallow her money." Lin Jinrong sighed softly and said
Leaning his head on Lin Jinyin's shoulder, he whispered: "I really can't let go of my sister..."
Lin Jinyin whispered: "I can't bear to leave you either. From now on, my mother and brother will be left to you to take care of. You have to remember to persuade your mother more to let her be more open-minded and suppress her temper. Big
Auntie, although the second aunt is sometimes hateful, she is not a treacherous or evil person. Look at the benefits in everything and don't be too petty. I hope you can learn to deal with the slippery ways of the eldest aunt and the deceptions of the second aunt.
Anyone can use whatever method... Hey, I'm teaching you to be bad. Where can you find a sister like me?" Lin Jinyin said with tears at the corners of her eyes.
Lin Jinrong hugged Lin Jinyin's arm and whispered: "I know my sister loves me, so don't worry, I will take good care of my mother and seventh brother."
Lin Jinyin wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and joked to Lin Jinrong: "Let me tell you something. Today I heard my mother and Gong's mother discussing sending gifts to my second uncle's house in Taiming Mansion and writing a letter. Can you
Do you know what to do?"
Lin Jinrong said: "I don't know, my sister told me."
Lin Jinyin pinched her nose and smiled: "Silly girl, I asked my second uncle and grandma to help you find a suitable family. Mother said that the first thing that matters is good character."
Lin Jinrong couldn't help but smile.
A few days later, Mrs. Tao arranged for someone to insert a hairpin for Velveteen's son. Lin Jinyin advised Mrs. Tao that winter was about to begin and asked her to take care of herself. Taking advantage of Mrs. Tao's sadness, she mentioned the matter. Mrs. Tao
Sure enough, she was furious: "She, an aunt who was born as a humble servant, actually saved so much money? What do you think of me?" She grabbed the teacup at hand and was about to smash it down when Lin Jinrong held her hand.
Lin Jinyin also hugged up, and the two sisters pressed Mrs. Tao tightly to sit down. You said something to each other, and slowly persuaded each other: "The matter has reached this point. No matter how much trouble my mother makes, nothing can be changed. Of course, she can be helped."
Losing face once, but what good does it do to us? It's only this once in a lifetime, so why not go with the flow and make her happy? Face is all for showing off to others, and with this little money to supplement it, the wedding can be more decent.
, and no one can fault my mother. She might as well do the math, what is the money provided by the public school enough for? If I don’t use the ready-made ones, does my mother have to use her own money to supplement it?"
Mrs. Tao remembered what Mrs. Lin had said through her maid last time, and she slowly became angry and obeyed. She gritted her teeth and said, "I'll help her!"
A few days later, the Taing family wrote a note and posted it. Among the dowries listed above, the first ones were a pair of bronze tripods and a pair of bronze Yi. Master Tao read it, pondered for a long time, and understood the key points.
, couldn't help but laugh loudly, the grievances of the past twenty years were wiped away, and the mood was waning: "It sounds so nice, but we got married for a mere plaything."
Mother Gong said seriously: "Madam, what you said is wrong. If this ancient bronze Yi and ancient bronze tripod were sold for pawns, they would be worth a lot of money. This dowry is actually not too thin. Apart from family status,
She is also a legitimate daughter, with a clean net worth and a generous dowry. The master actually thinks that this marriage is a good one, and the old master does not find fault with it."
Tao sneered and said, "Exactly. Why should I be angry with something like this? Why doesn't he die?"
Gong's mother said sternly: "Madam, you should be careful. If this marriage would never happen in ordinary times, the Heng family could only do it because they fell in love with the master. I think they are not a trouble-free family."
Mrs. Tao said calmly: "It's understandable if you want your daughter to marry well. It's just a pity that you chose the wrong person."
