Chapter 6 Hidden merit and fame

　　　Even if I have the intention to speak in detail, I really want to speak, but I don’t know where to start.

 Fortunately, my sister's palms were warm, giving her courage little by little through the intertwined hands.

"That Mr. Su," Lin Yunjing said, "you know, I took a look behind the screen twice before and knew his appearance and stature, but I can't say anything else about him."

Looking at Gao Gao, the two elders had a thoughtful mind, and the marriage pushed forward.

"I know this is the case," Lin Yunjing continued, "My mother also said that I am already good, and there are many who have never even looked at it."

 After saying a few words, Lin Yunjing stopped again.

Lin Yunyan did not rush.

She could tell that the eldest sister was not hesitant, but that she knew too little about Su Ke and couldn't even tell her what age she was.

"I can't say anything good about him, nor can I say he's bad, but I just..." Lin Yunjing bit her lip and said decisively, "I just think there's something wrong with him!"

"Marriage is about fate," Lin Yunyan said, "I just believe in one sentence, 'Marriage is about fate.' If the eldest sister sees something wrong with him, it must be because you are not destined."

Hearing this, Lin Yunjing's tense shoulders relaxed a bit.

The younger sister supported without hesitation, which put a smile on her face.

"I'm afraid I'm willful." Lin Yunjing relaxed a little, and her thoughts became smoother. "He is the direct son of the Duke's mansion. Although he is not in his turn to inherit the title, he still has a noble status. His eldest uncle said that he is good at martial arts." , literary talent are pretty good.

In our own situation, we knew that I had never treated me at home, but my father was out of the way. On the first back of the door, I was climbing.

If I can explain Mr. Su's problem with reason and truth, I can still fight for myself, but I can't explain anything and can only rely on a feeling. How can this be done? "

It was precisely because of these considerations that she buried her uneasiness and hesitation in her heart.

Lin Yunyan said: "Since the eldest sister feels something is wrong, she still has to speak to grandma."

"If we haven't discussed the marriage yet, it probably makes sense," Lin Yunjing shook her head, "But after all the horoscopes have been combined, we have to wait until the wedding date is set. Unless there is something serious about right and wrong, grandma will not agree."

Lin Yunyan blinked.

 There is indeed great right and wrong. It would be a show to take Su Ke's outhouses and servants out for a walk.

 But that alone is not enough.

Xu Guogong's mansion repeated its old trick and asked Su Ke to kneel at the door of the uncle's mansion for three days and three nights. The Lin family would also be very passive.

Who made grandma want her face and skin for decades?

 Her family has never practiced the ability to tear people apart.

"I have a way here," Lin Yunyan whispered, "As long as the wedding date is not decided, there is always the possibility of turning around. I will do my best to stop my grandmother. The method may not look good, but it will never damage the reputation of the eldest sister. Sister, just do what I do, don’t give in.”

Lin Yunjing looked directly at Lin Yunyan.

 The specific method, my sister did not say.

 But Lin Yunjing just believed her.

First of all, they have had a sisterhood for more than ten years. When they were young, we had quarrels over trivial matters, and they also apologized to each other seriously. The relationship they grew up with was not polite at all. Superficial skills can't be beat.

Secondly, my sister is the princess and a popular person in front of the Queen Mother. She must have more ideas than him.

Nodding solemnly, Lin Yunjing said: "There is always a voice in my heart telling me that this marriage is not possible, just go ahead and do it, I won't back down!"

As he spoke, the room gradually became dark.

“It’s going to be a thunderstorm,” Lin Yunyan stood up, “I’m going back first, sister, please relax.”

Lin Yunjing sent her out and whispered: "If you want me to do anything, just tell me. I'm not good at it. It's not a big deal to go to my grandmother's house and cry miserably."

Lin Yunyan burst into laughter.

　What is Lin Yunjing's ability to cry miserably?

 It was clear that my grandmother was thin-skinned. When the younger generation’s eyes turned red, she couldn’t sit still.

 But no matter how hard she sat still, she would not regret the marriage for no reason.

As we entered Bao'an Garden, there was a thunderous sound, and soon there was a heavy downpour, and most of the summer heat was gone. Mother Ma poked her head and looked at Dongcijian several times, frowned and called to Wan Yue, and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong, Princess?"

 Why did you sit under the window as soon as you came back and stare at the dark sky?

 Is this thunderstorm so beautiful?

"I had a nightmare while taking a nap earlier," Wan Yue replied. "The way I looked when I woke up scared me. Before leaving the palace, Grandma Wang also told me that the princess had dreamed of something bad. If you have nightmares again in the past few days, you must ask the imperial doctor to prescribe a prescription to soothe your nerves. "

After hearing this, Grandma Ma sighed.

 She is Lin Yunyan's nanny. She has taken care of her personally for so many years, so she knows the situation best.

A nightmare that can make even Cining Palace worry, the princess must have dreamed about the fire again.

"I haven't had a bad night's sleep in a few years..." Mother Ma muttered, "I still have to let the kitchen cook something delicious. If you eat well, you will be in good spirits!"

"Mother."

Mammy Ma was giving instructions to Wan Yue when she suddenly heard Lin Yunyan calling her, so she hurried in and asked with a smile: "Princess, do you have anything to say?"

"There is something," Lin Yunyan motioned to Mother Ma to come closer, "Mom sent someone to give Chen Gui a message quietly."

Mama Ma was stunned: "If the princess has anything to say, she can just tell the third master directly, why go through Chen Gui?"

 “He’s easier to talk to.”

After listening to Lin Yunyan’s general remarks, Mother Ma had an idea.

 The moonlight is getting darker.

The floor tiles paved with bluestones were in disrepair. Lin Xun, the third master of the Chengyi Mansion, got off the sedan chair. He was unprepared and his shoes got wet from the outside to the inside. He couldn't help but frown.

 The waiter came out to greet me. When he saw the situation, he immediately admitted his mistake with an extremely sincere attitude.

Lin Xun said nothing and followed the waiter upstairs.

The waiter knocked on the private room and said inside: "Uncle, the third master is here."

Chen Gui hurriedly stood up, nodded and bowed to Lin Xun, and offered him the main seat.

"I invite you here tonight because of the matter of Laoshi Alley in the south of the city." Chen Gui poured the tea with his own hands. "I have thought about it over and over again. I have to explain the pros and cons to you clearly."

Lin Xun listened very carefully.

Chen Gui had already talked about the pros and cons in the previous episode, but this was the first time he heard about the cons. The more he listened, the more sincere he felt.

When people become sincere, business looks more like that.

 “I’ll think about it again.” Lin Xun did not make a decision immediately.

 “It should, it should,” Chen Gui smiled, “Eat first, eat first.”

 After having enough wine and food, Chen Gui sent Lin Xun off.

With the warm summer night wind blowing on his face, he wiped his face and said to the boy next to him: "Go and answer a message. I have already told you both good and bad things as he told me."

 The boy responded and left.

 Chen Gui stood there, thinking secretly.

Even though he was walking outside, others would respectfully call him "uncle", but Chen Gui knew his own worth. He and Lin Xun's wife, Mrs. Chen, had already been together for five years, and now they were just showing off their shamelessness.

Therefore, the third lady asked someone to deliver the message and asked him to have a good talk with the third master. Chen Gui agreed without saying a word.

Originally, since the third lady was interested in this business, she could make the decision herself. As long as she convinced the old uncle and his wife, there was no need to care whether the third gentleman hesitated or not?

It just so happened that the third lady wanted to hide her merit and fame deeply and would not let him mention it to the third master.

The Third Madam worked so hard for the Third Master’s face!

On the other side, after getting the news that Lin Xun was going to the main courtyard as soon as he returned to the house, the fake third lady and the real second girl Lin Yunyan also set off.
