Chapter 68: The Lin Family's Plans

When Lin Xin heard about it, he didn't speak. They all knew about this matter, when Lin Yue was given to marry the fifth prince, the emperor told Lin Rufeng that he intended to marry the third princess to Lin Xin. As Lin Xin, who was born in a family of military generals, marrying a princess and being a concubine is by no means a good return. Because the attached horse of the Mingyue Dynasty can only be attached to the horse for life, hang a loose post, and lead the Yulu, and there is no chance to fight with the leading soldiers in this life.

They didn't open their mouths because they knew, but Lin Yue didn't open their mouths because they didn't expect it.

She didn't expect that she had calculated the King of Freedom and actually helped these brothers. From the beginning, she was just thinking about how to break the marriage contract with the five princes, and as for the rest, she really didn't think about it.

The family finished eating in silence, but An Yuyan and Lin Rufeng asked these children to stay, and when they sat down and served tea, An Yuyan said, "Leaving you behind, I have something to say to you." As he spoke, he looked at a few of them before continuing, "Although Yue'er's marriage is scheduled for November, her dowry should also be prepared." A few of you are brothers, and you can give some from your name to Yue'er, okay? ”

Lin Xin has a few shops or Zhuangzi or land given by Lin Rufeng and his wife under his name, but Lin Yue, who is a daughter, does not. Originally, An Yuyan had prepared a little, but now Lin Yue was going to marry King Xiaoyao, and this dowry had to be added a little more.

"You don't need two brothers to come out, just give Yue'er a few shops and a Zhuangzi from my name." Lin Yi said.

"No need," Lin Xin said with a refusal face, "This is a little bit of my heart for my sister." Lin Ping disagreed.

"With the two elder brothers," Lin Yi said with a smile, "With the little money in the army of the two of you, it will be difficult to support your wife and children in the future, so you can count on that little thing to make up for it." I also took it out to my sister, so I wasn't afraid that I would suffer myself in the future? But I, in the past few years, have been dedicated to business, and I have added a lot of things, and it's nothing to give some to my sister. You two don't fight. ”

Lin Xin and the two were about to say something, but Lin Yi continued, "What's the matter, are you thinking about giving it to Yue'er now, and then when you get married, I'll send you some good ones?" I know, you two are just giving Yue'er ten shops, and the profit is not as good as the one I give her. ”

Lin Xin and the others laughed angrily at him, but they also knew that Lin Yi had a way of doing business, and at the moment, which of the shops and Zhuangzi under his name was not profitable, not as good as them, and he was dedicated to being in the army, and he rarely looked at these, so it would be good if he didn't lose money, so he would not fight.

Lin Yue glanced at Lin Yi, yes, Lin Yi looked anxious and straight-talking, but he was a very brainy person, how could he not go to the test to gain fame and stay at home all the time. At the moment, it seems that he is not going to take the test, but he can't take the test, the emperor is already very jealous, Lin Xin and Lin Ping have taken the merit test, and they have a position in the army, if Lin Yi goes again, I am afraid that the emperor will hate him even more. Hearing him say this, it seems that his mind is all about doing business.

Seeing this, An Yuyan said, "Okay, let the third child add some dowry, and the two of you will be exempted." Alas, if you don't want to marry the King of Ease, why do you need to add Yue'er's dowry. ”

"It's not a big deal, look at what you said, mother, I'll be happy to send it. In the future, when my brothers get married, I will also give it away. Lin Yi shrugged and said, he originally planned to marry his brothers in the future, and when his sister got married, he would give them some, after all, although he is an official, his salary is not high, and it is very hard to feed a large family. When his father and mother advised him not to join the army, he still hated it. But then I figured it out, so I devoted myself to business, and I also contributed to my family.

An Yuyan nodded and said, "Yi'er is a smart person, and he has done a good job of this businessman in the past few years. I left you today to tell you about your father's and mother's plans. ”

When a few heard about it, they looked at An Yuyan and waited for her to say.

"Yue'er's marriage is no longer up to us, and her marriage to King Xiaoyao can more or less ensure the peace of our Lin Mansion." An Yuyan said slowly, "But our Lin family's power in the army can't last any longer. I heard your father say that the emperor has already told him that he intends to send the third prince and the sixth prince to the army for training, and I think he also intends to let the royal family control the military power. In order to prevent the marriage of several of you from being decided by others like Yue'er, we want to make your marriage pre-booked. An Yuyan looked at her sons, and seeing that they had no objections, she continued, "Xin'er, as the eldest son and eldest grandson, for the peace of Baolin Mansion, my mother hopes that you will meet the granddaughter of Taiping." ”

Taiping Hou is the emperor's concubine, the protector of the lord has merit, when the old man returns home, the emperor specially named him as the prince, although he is not in the court, but the influence is quite profound.

"I talked to the young lady of Taiping Houfu that day, and I intend to give her daughter to you." An Yuyan continued, "Although Taiping Hou is no longer in the court, who in the court does not give him face. Marriage with their family can also ensure the peace of our Lin Mansion. Moreover, they are a family of literati, which saves the palace from worrying that we will marry other generals. ”

"As for Ping'er," An Yuyan looked at Lin Ping, "Our original intention was to let you marry a woman from an ordinary family, this is to weaken the power of our Lin family." It's also a way to protect yourself. ”

"And Yi'er," An Yuyan said to Lin Yi, "You have never been famous and devoted to business, our original intention was to let you continue to do business and marry the daughter of a businessman." Although the status of the businessman is not high, only with money can the Lin family have no worries about food and clothing. ”

"Now Xin'er is old enough to get married, so you have to get married as soon as possible, as for the two of you, although I intend to help you settle down, but you can't be in a hurry at the moment, if the one in the palace looks at us and sets up a marriage for the three of you at once, I'm afraid it's not good." An Yuyan looked at Lin Rufeng, and saw that he motioned for him to go down by himself, Fang continued, "I have already told you what I and your father mean, you two, you can pay attention to the woman you can like, you can come and talk to me." As for the daughters of the ministers of the DPRK and China, don't think about it. ”

Lin Yue listened, it's not a taste, this marriage event has to be calculated like this. That Lin Xin is fundamentally chosen by his parents, Lin Ping and Lin Yi are better, at least within a certain range, there is still a chance to choose by themselves. Don't they have a favorite person in their hearts? And thinking about it from another angle, if Miss Lin doesn't like Ye Ning, but likes an ordinary man, then An Yuyan will let her? I'm afraid that I didn't object to Miss Lin and Ye Ning at the beginning, just because of Ye Ning's identity.
