Chapter Seventy-Four: Marriage Blocked
He seems to like Chen Xiaoyun.
Even if he can marry him as a wife by virtue of his identity, it is estimated that it will be difficult to fall into his favor.
As a wife who stands in the way between her husband and the woman he likes, not only does she not get the favor of her husband, but it is also rare to gain the respect of the people in the house. Is such a wife really worth it? Is his liking for Lin Tiankuo enough to make him willing to bear all kinds of grievances every day in the future?
Song Yihan clearly knew that the answer was: no.
She likes Lin Tiankuo, if Lin Tiankuo doesn't have a favorite person, it is indeed her good match, and her father has also revealed to her that he is willing to promote this marriage. She is confident that she will be able to combine herself and her father's help after marriage, and win Lin Tiankuo's love and respect.
But now that Lin Tiankuo has a favorite person, she hesitated. Choosing a marriage partner was originally a gamble, and since she had to gamble, she would definitely choose the one with the best chance of winning.
Lin Tiankuo is not a suitable marriage partner, even if he likes him, he has to give up. So who else is suitable for marriage?
She set her eyes on Lin Zehai.
Previously, she had been paying attention to Lin Tiankuo and had not paid attention to others. Now take a closer look at Lin Zehai and find that he is also a handsome son. He has just entered the palace and has no cronies in the court, and if he marries him at the moment, the household department can also give him some help in the court.
Marrying Lin Tiankuo is the icing on the cake, and he may not necessarily be grateful. But Lin Zehai is different, his marriage is a relief for him, and he must be moved.
For a moment, Song Yihan thought of the sweetness of her marriage to Lin Zehai.
However, isn't this Lin Zehai a little stupid? His eyes kept staring in the same direction. She looked curiously at Lin Zehai's gaze......
Chen Xiaoyun!
It's Chen Xiaoyun again!
Looks, family background, reputation, what can she compare to herself? Are the eyes of these princes covered with some kind of excrement?
The more she thought about it, the more angry she became, and she didn't notice that the pudding she had only eaten had fallen to the ground. She came back to her senses when the maid came to help her clean the pudding from her feet.
In the disgruntled eyes of everyone, she pulled out a smile and apologized: "I'm sorry, I didn't serve it properly, the pudding slipped out of the plate." ”
"I don't know how to praise it, and Sister Han gave me inspiration." Lin Tianqing was helping Song Yihan shift everyone's attention to herself. "It's smooth! This is the best word to describe the taste of the pudding. ”
"The word eighteen sisters is very apt." Lin Yin looked at the plates on the table, each of them was empty, and even the boys had eaten them all, which was enough to see everyone's love for it.
"Miss Chen can make so much delicious food, I don't know where this cooking skill comes from?" Zhao Zhixin asked everyone's doubts.
It's finally here!
Fortunately, she had prepared for this question, and she replied calmly: "By chance, I found an ancient book that recorded the recipes of many dishes. Because of curiosity, I tried a simple one. Later, I gradually liked cooking, combined with practice in ancient books, and gradually I was able to cook some food that was not recorded in ancient books. ”
"It's the same experience as my aunt." Lin Fei sighed.
"Yes, I also heard that my aunt can cook food that no one else has ever seen before, because of an ancient book."
"Miss Chen is such a good opportunity."
Li Yi was embarrassed by their praise again, and thought: A few aunts and grandmothers, if you have any requirements, just say it directly, I am very weak to praise me like this.
She wasn't worried about any malice at the moment, because Lin Tiankuo was there. She believes that Lin Tiankuo will not sit idly by and watch herself being framed by others.
Lin Tiankuo rarely made a sound on the side, and only communicated with Zhao Gongzi occasionally because he was nervous. Although the plan was drawn up by him, and it is currently going well, he still can't take it lightly.
His facial expression was well controlled, indifferent, but his palms were already slightly sweaty.
He had a marriage experience in his previous life, and Song Yihan was not the only wife and concubine in the house. But he had never experienced such nervousness, and he knew that he was so nervous, so he couldn't come......
Zhao Zhixin was dissatisfied with the fact that several princesses used Princess Wen'an's reputation to elevate Chen Xiaoyun, and deliberately quipped: "The princess praises Miss Chen so much, she will definitely be able to find her in-laws smoothly in the future." ”
Lin Yin didn't seem to hear the sourness in her words, and praised along with her words: "Yes, the entire capital can't find someone with better cooking skills than Miss Chen, she must be very popular." ”
Lin Tianqing answered with a smile: "I remember that someone deliberately ran to my father and said that he would marry a daughter-in-law in the future, and he must find someone who is good at cooking." ”
Zhao Zhi was stunned: Lin Tianqing's words seemed like a joke, but he involved Chen Xiaoyun with the prince. Who in the entire capital doesn't know about the prince? Was her move intentional or unintentional?
She stole a glance at the prince, who was chatting with her eldest brother as if he hadn't heard it.
Song Yihan is different from Zhao Zhixin's uncertainty, she probably knows Lin Tianqing's intention to match Lin Tiankuo with Chen Xiaoyun, but where can the prince's marriage be decided so easily? Just because Chen Xiaoyun can cook, can he marry the prince? Joke!
If Lin Tiankuo really likes it, he can run to the emperor to intercede for her, and be a side concubine. Could it be that the three of them were the "support" invited by Lin Tiankuo to build momentum for Chen Xiaoyun?
"Haha, you also joke about the prince's brother's troubles!"
Lin Tianqing didn't say the word "prince", but Lin Yin took the initiative to bring it up. They must have been pre-discussed. Do you want to fulfill the prince and Chen Xiaoyun? Zhao Zhixin deduced the most reasonable one, but she couldn't accept the answer rationally.
"Sister, stop joking, how can the prince's marriage be so rash!"
Hey? Who stole my lines? Lin Fei, who was supposed to speak, was very confused.
It was Lin Zehai who made the noise, and he heard the princess pulling Lin Zehai and Chen Xiaoyun together, so he hurriedly stopped it.
Ever since he knew that the man was going to arrange for him to meet Chen Xiaoyun alone, he had been uneasy. He was worried that the two would not be able to meet alone, and he was worried that the two would be found to have a private meeting, and Chen Xiaoyun couldn't bear the gossip of others.
He didn't know what the princess was doing this, but he couldn't accept it.
"Second brother, it's inconvenient for us to intervene in the small talk between women." Lin Tiankuo stopped his sister who was about to speak with his eyes.
"The lesson of the royal brother is that it was I who heard about the marriage of the imperial brother, which disturbed my sister and the young ladies. I apologize to you. "As long as you don't discuss Chen Xiaoyun's marriage, everything is easy to say.
"Second Emperor Brother doesn't have to be like this, it's true that we didn't think it through." Lin Yin finally found a chance to speak, and hurriedly "reprimanded" Lin Tianqing: "Eighteen sister, you are too Meng Lang, you dare to take out anything and joke!" Hurry up and apologize to the prince's brother! ”
It's time to show off my acting skills! Lin Tianqing was faintly excited.
Brother Prince, people are about to be labeled as "brutal and willful", you are responsible for finding me a good husband.
Lin Tianqing seemed to have been reprimanded like this for the first time, and was stunned for a moment before she realized that her sister was talking about herself.
She was affectionately excited: "I don't want to apologize!" What is clearly said is the truth! ”
"Whether it is true or not, the marriage of the prince's brother should be decided by his father. How can I make fun of it? Hurry up and apologize! Lin Yin's tone gradually became stern.
