Chapter 251
Chapter 251
Although it is said to go north, it is not possible to go north immediately.
After Kong Jiayi asked people to pack up their things, and gave instructions to the family's housekeeper about the affairs of the house, he led Lin Ye and Lin Lingyu northward!
In fact, at the very beginning, Kong Jiayi wanted to keep Lin Lingyu to watch the house, otherwise, if she didn't come back for more than half a year, if any guests came to the house, the female relatives couldn't let the housekeeper entertain them!Although it is said that the housekeeper's wife of Xunyan Yushi Lin's family has a high status outside, but in Lin's family, she is a real servant, how can a servant entertain the master!
Even for Grandma Liu who went to Jia's mansion in the original book to play the autumn wind, although she first asked to go to Zhou's family, it was the master Wang Xifeng who finally met them.This is still the Jia family where servants who have served the elders have more face than the young master, let alone the Lin family. As long as it is about the backyard, no matter how big or small, it must be reported to Kong Jiayi first. What to do with Kong Jiayi's order, the Lin family will absolutely not allow it, and the servants will decide on their own.
But Lin Hai's words woke up Kong Jiayi. Lin Lingyu is now 12 years old. Kong Jiayi has been busy with Lin Ye this year, so he pays less attention to Lin Lingyu and Lin Yu.I didn't expect to wait for Lin Ye's marriage to be completed. Lin Lingyu is 13 years old. Although it is not too late to see others at this time, but some have missed the best time. Generally, people look at others when they are 12 years old. .
When they arrived in the capital, even if Kong Jiayi was busy with Lin Ye's marriage and had no time to take care of Lin Lingyu, he could still ask Jiang Shi to take Lin Lingyu out on a blind date!Let everyone in the capital know that there is a young lady in Lin's parents' room who is already a beautiful girl, and it's time to see her. Those who are willing to sign up as soon as possible.
In short.It's better than Lin Lingyu staying at home in Jiangnan!Girls always have a sense of belonging, especially girls in ancient times.Even those old girls who have delayed their apricot flowering period are willing to be someone else's step-wife.
And Jiangnan.With Lin Hai's official position and family background, there are only a few well-matched families.
The Wang family, that is, Kong Jiayi's grandfather's family, has connections with Kong Jiayi.There is no need to kiss and kiss for the time being.
The Fan family are already relatives, so why bother!Moreover, the son of the Fan family is the eldest son of the right age.And the Lin family already had a young lady married to the second wife of the Fan family.If the eldest family's daughter-in-law is the Lin family's young lady again, well, what do you make others think!
There is still one.It is the Zhen family.The eldest son of the second wife of the Zhen family is only two years older than Lin Lingyu.Very suitable.According to Emperor Xuande's current "sacred favor" for the Zhen family, in the eyes of outsiders, the marriage between the Lin family and the Zhen family can be regarded as a well-matched couple.
But anyone who has read the original book knows that the Zhen family was finished earlier than the Jia family. It is said that after the new emperor came to power, the first one to die was the Zhen family, like the Jia family.They can only be counted as the third batch, Lin Hai will not let his only daughter go to the tiger's mouth!
To sum up, after Lin Hai thought about it, he decided to go to the capital city to find his son-in-law. Compared to the capital city, where hundreds of officials gather, there are more well-matched families.Although he's not here, there shouldn't be any problem with Mr. Lin and Jiang's watching. Besides, it's just watching first. He will go to Beijing in May next year. It's fine to see for yourself when the time comes. up!
but talking
Now that Lin Ye is eighteen, it's time to arrange a marriage in this age, but because Lin Ye is going to take a scientific examination, Lin Hai and Kong Jiayi are all looking forward to Lin Ye's title on the gold list, so they postpone this matter.
Originally, Miss Yuan's family was only 15 years old this year. Even if she postponed it for a year, she would only be 16 years old. It would be fine if she got married at 16 years old.But the most important thing now is that the young lady of the Yuan family who is betrothed by the Lin family is the eldest daughter of the Yuan family, and there is also a younger sister who is a direct daughter and a younger sister who is a concubine who is going to get married!
There is a three-year difference between the first-born sisters, and they are only engaged now, so it's okay.The key point is that the concubine is only half a year younger than Miss Yuan's family. If the concubine's sister on top of her head doesn't get married, her marriage will naturally be impossible.
If it took a year or two, the eldest daughter might be able to afford it, but as a concubine, she definitely couldn't afford it.In this day and age, it's okay for a man to procrastinate for a year or two, but it's absolutely impossible for a girl.
Although Mrs. Yuan doesn't like this concubine, at least she tolerates her because of her reputation. After all these years, she has feelings for raising a puppy and cat. Let her master show her I went to a farming and studying family, and the other party already has the status of Juren!Mrs. Yuan has also prepared the dowry and so on. Of course it will not be a very good thing, but she has also prepared 32 liters.
Mrs. Yuan also didn't want to ruin her reputation at the end of the day, and she was very anxious when rumors came out of abusing concubines.But it's not easy to send someone to Lin Jiaming to talk about this kind of thing, and he is still in the south of the Yangtze River. Even if you want to send people, it will take more than a month to go back and forth.
The marriage between the Lin family and the Yuan family had been finalized for several years, but if the Lin family did not hear the news of the marriage, Miss Yuan would also suffer unnecessary speculation and gossip.
Both of these things are unacceptable.
The two families wanted to get married. If the Yuan family's reputation was damaged due to the Lin family's negligence, it would be bad for the relationship between the two families.
Kong Jiayi is also a mother, so of course she knew that Mrs. Yuan might be a little anxious. Therefore, when she went north to the capital, she specially sent someone to ride on a fast horse to Beijing, first to report to the Lin family, and to send a message to the Yuan family. The Lin family is coming back to Beijing to marry your girl!I will not deliberately drag your girl into an old girl.
After Jiang got the letters from Kong Jiayi and Lin Hai, he started to make arrangements.
The first thing is to send someone to clean out the house. If it is this house, there is a story in the past.
When Lin Hai got married back then, the Jiang family refurbished a large courtyard on the east side of Lin's mansion and used it as a new house.When waiting for Lin Shen to get married, the problem will come!
Lin Hai, the eldest son, will inherit the Lin family business in the future, and this house will belong to Lin Hai in the future.After Master Lin and the Jiang family die, the two brothers Lin Hai and Lin Shen will separate, and Lin Shen will move out of this mansion and find a place to live outside.
So the Jiang family had a hard time with this issue. If Lin Shen's yard was renovated, would Lin Hai have any objections?But if the decoration is not good, then the Du family is gone, will the Du family have any objections.
And where should this yard be chosen!The main courtyard facing the gate is where Master Lin and the Jiang family live. Lin Hai can only move in here after Master Lin dies, and Lin Hai's courtyard is on the east side.
According to the rules of space, Lin Shen's yard was finally chosen to be on the west side, so as not to appear particularly crowded.
But here comes the question, choosing Lin Shen's courtyard to the west, will it give others the feeling that the two brothers are fighting in a ring!One is on the east side and one is on the west side.
The Jiang family has been troubled by this for a long time, and finally resolved it. They chose Lin Shen's courtyard to the west, but compared with Lin Hai's east courtyard, it was a little more inclined to the south, and it was farther away from the main courtyard. This showed that Lin Hai was in the courtyard. status at home.
While having people clean up the east and outer yards, the Jiang family notified the Yuan family that her eldest daughter-in-law had returned to Beijing with her eldest grandson and granddaughter and was preparing for the wedding. Go out, so as not to spread rumors and cause trouble.
At this time, the Yuan family was also worrying about when the Lin family would propose to arrange the marriage. As the woman, they could not take the initiative to propose it, but their girls, especially the second girl, couldn't wait.
Although the Yuan family also felt that the Lin family would not just embarrass themselves through understanding the behavior of the Lin family, they also knew that Lin Ye's parents, including him, were now in Yangzhou, Jiangnan, so they were not sure.
Now that the Lin family has finally clearly put the marriage on the agenda, the Yuan family is naturally very happy. As for the Lin family's statement that the marriage will be delayed until May next year, they can understand it. After all, if Lin Ye has a They have a good future, and their faces are also bright, and seeing that Lin Hai will go to Beijing to report on his work in May next year, it can't be better to arrange for his parents to be there when his father goes to Beijing to report on his work!
So after Kong Jiayi brought the two children to the capital, the two families quickly reached an agreement on various matters in private.
As for the bright side, Kong Jiayi and Mrs. Yuan thought about everything in detail for the sake of the happy marriage of their precious son and the jewel in their hands. Every detail had to be considered in several ways, so it dragged on for two months. I just had a rough idea.After all this tossing, everyone naturally knew that the two families had begun to discuss the marriage, and they all knew how much the two families attached importance to this marriage, so those messages that were still in their infancy were easily obliterated.
When the news of Lin Ye's high school came out, everyone paid homage to Yuan's family. This changed from being a son-in-law to a son-in-law in a short time!The grade has been raised several grades at once.
But don't look at the fact that a Jinshi is just two more exams than a Juren. Some people can't pass the exam in their entire life, and they can only be a Juren in their entire life.At the beginning of the founding of the country, Juren was quite popular, but now, fellow Jinshi are not popular, let alone Juren.
Lin Ye passed the Jinshi examination, and according to the family background of the Lin family, the future of the Yuan family's Miss Feng Guanxia is just around the corner, and it has completely become a matter of time!How can this not make everyone envious and jealous!
It's a pity that such young talents, no matter how much you envy and hate them, you can't find many of them!
I can only sigh, Miss Yuan's good luck!
