It is a big event for a woman to get married. There is a folk saying that marriage is a second reincarnation, and there is some truth in it.
A good husband is extremely important. Old Madam Wei turned to ask Wei An for his opinion: "What do you think?"
Wei An is different from ordinary girls. She is not limited by these things. She has experienced things and is not as ignorant as those noble ladies waiting to be married. If she is asked to decide her own future, she can do it.
Old Mrs. Wei also fully respected her opinion.
Wei An herself didn't know either, so she told Mrs. Wei honestly: "Young Master Lin is very good, but..."
A "but" means that you haven't put any thought into it.
Old Mrs. Wei looked at Wei An quietly and encouragingly, asking her to continue speaking.
Wei An leaned on Old Lady Wei's lap, his voice becoming very low and deep: "It's just that I don't know how to get along with him."
She has lost the ability to love someone.
Things like loving someone are just too tiring.
All her girlish expectations of her husbands were gradually worn away by Peng Caichen's coldness and calculations.
So much so that when she recalls that marriage now, what impressed her most was the difficulties caused by her mother-in-law and sister-in-law. As for how she got along with Peng Caichen
She really didn't remember any of it.
Mrs. Wei didn't say anything for a while, and then she said, "Sometimes, grandma always feels like you have a heavy burden on your heart. You are just a child. All those things in the past were just a dream."
She touched Wei An's head and whispered, "You have to give it a try. If you don't try, how do you know if you can get out and live a new life? Do you want to be trapped in a cage for the rest of your life?"
How is that different from going to jail
Wei An's voice was low and without any emotion, but it revealed his exhaustion: "Third Master Lin is certainly very good, but he... I don't know him very well. I don't know what kind of person he is, what he likes..."
What a little girl! Old Madam Wei couldn't help but laugh: "Silly girl, what's the big deal? There are many girls in the world who know nothing about their future husbands before they get married. Feelings are developed through getting along with each other. As time goes by, you will naturally become familiar with each other."
Yeah
Will you then discover his unknown side and slowly become like your mother, worrying about his many trivial matters
Wei An was a little confused.
Old Madam Wei knew that it was too difficult to think things through at once, so she patted her hands and said, "Don't be so nervous. They just came to ask for your opinion first, and it's not even a formal visit. Master Xie's excuse is that she wants you to come to the palace to make her a scent to calm her nerves. This matter cannot be spread outside. Whether it succeeds or not depends on you."
Concubine Lin Shu really gave Wei An enough face and consideration.
Afraid that it would ruin her reputation.
But in fact, this was not what Concubine Lin Shufei herself thought of. She was thoughtful during her pregnancy, but she always felt that her thinking had become dull and she could not think of many things.
Just like my younger brother said, he fell in love with Wei An.
Her first reaction was happiness, feeling that she had finally done her part for her mother in the underground.
Her mother died early, and as an elder sister, she took advantage of the opportunity of the selection to enter the palace under the harshness of Lady Qinghe, not for the sake of climbing up the wealth and status, but for her younger brother.
The wife of the Earl of Qinghe's methods were not very clever, but why would a wife need any clever methods to torture illegitimate sons and daughters
As long as they don't particularly care about their reputation, they will basically remain indifferent and pretend that illegitimate sons and daughters don't exist, just keep a distance from them.
But the wife of the Earl of Qinghe was different. Not only did she keep her distance from illegitimate sons and daughters, she also had to be angry with the dead and make things difficult for the illegitimate children.
When they go out to visit guests, they are dressed up and wear exquisite clothes, but when they return home, they eat and wear poor things.
Bastards are not allowed to study.
Instead, those maids were placed in the rooms of the illegitimate sons very early on.
She knew from a very early age that if she could not resist, she would be married off casually like those other sisters. And what about her younger brother
It was like a piece of mud that could not be helped. Finally, when Uncle Qinghe finally lost his patience, he became the fish on someone else's chopping board.
Later, she finally climbed to a high position little by little with the help of Prince Linjiang, and took advantage of this to make Emperor Longqing treat her brother well.
Later, Young Master Lin finally became a successful person and became the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, becoming very powerful and influential.
But he was never satisfied with his marriage.
Lady Qinghe Earl tried every possible means, and although she did not harm Third Young Master Lin in any way, no one from a really good family with a worthy family background was willing to marry him.
No matter how good Young Master Lin is, he still has a legal mother above him. Who knows how he will live in the future
My younger brother himself doesn't care much and doesn't worry about his marriage at all.
She had talked to her brother about this matter countless times, but he never took it to heart and acted as if it didn't matter.
She talked and said it, and then scolded him, but it was all no use.
Gradually, she began to lose hope, but now her brother came to her and told her awkwardly that he already had someone he liked.
At first she was shocked, and looked at her brother with both joy and worry, wondering if he would mention those girls from the Music Bureau or those girls from improper families, whether she should agree or not.
Who knew that the person he was talking about was Princess Shouning of the Dingbei Marquis’ Mansion.
Princess Shouning certainly knew that this little girl was truly a tough character.
But Concubine Lin Shu liked such ruthless characters. When she heard it was her, her eyes lit up, and her heart, which had been lifted up in her throat, instantly settled back into her stomach. She was just about to put her hands together to thank the Buddha.
She was so overwhelmed by the huge surprise that she could not think too much. She immediately thought about how to make this marriage happen without making a fuss. She immediately thought about asking Emperor Longqing for grace to grant the marriage.
It was Third Master Lin who stopped her. He said with some embarrassment and annoyance, "I, I haven't asked them what they think. If I report it like this, it would be too rash and abrupt."
What if they don’t want to
Wouldn't that damage their reputation
Concubine Lin Shu finally realized what was going on and couldn't help but smile: "Even I didn't think of this. Thanks for reminding me. Otherwise, wouldn't it be embarrassing for others? What you said is that for such a big matter, the two families should have communicated privately first. They should know each other's attitude."
Only in this way can they become a perfect couple instead of a pair of resentful lovers.
Young Master Lin heaved a sigh of relief, and Concubine Lin Shu did not waste a moment and called in her confidant, Xie Shiyi, and gave her a lot of instructions, and then asked her to go to the Wei family.
