C193 (1/2)

Waiting for Lin Shu to open the letter, she discovered that three silver notes that were worth a hundred silver taels had fallen out, and other than that, there was nothing else.

Lin Shu was stunned, and Yun Dou was also stunned. She asked in a low voice, ”How did this happen?”

She thought that this was Young Master Lu's letter of love for her young lady. After all, according to the rules, they were not allowed to meet before the marriage.

Lin Shu looked again, the letter was empty, ”I think it must be the new year money that Uncle Jingtang gave me!” In her heart, she felt that it was somewhat strange, but she was mostly disappointed. It was just that even she herself did not realize it.

Actinin Qin said softly: ”Miss, I will help you collect these silver taels!”

Madam Lian would always give her money from time to time. Although it was not a huge sum, but in total, she was like a rich woman.

Lin Shu nodded, ”Then let's put it away!”

Because this year's Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion had three girls who were going to be married off, the New Year wasn't very lively and even brought about a bit of depression.

Not to mention that Lin Pei had only gotten a good performance this year. It must be known that ever since he had entered the service, his performance had always been excellent, so his Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion was a little gloomy.

Lin Qian, however, was a little happy. She couldn't bear to see everyone from the Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion wandering around for the Fifth House and the Fifth Uncle, and she even pulled on Second Madam's sleeves as she whispered: ”Mother, do you think Fifth Uncle will enter the Cabinet?”

Wanting to enter the Cabinet was not easy, even the Elder Jiangge had previously said that Lin Pei had hope, but how many scholars had Daqing Dynasty? There were many people who had hopes of entering the Cabinet. It was easier said than done …

Second Madam shook his head, ”How would I know? A few times ago, your father mentioned this to me, and told me to go to the Jiang Family to probe your character. How could you not know what kind of character your father has? If not for your Fifth Uncle finding him, how would he be able to think of this matter? ”

”Actually, whether your Fifth Uncle can enter the Cabinet or not is not up to your great-uncle to decide. I think this matter is suspended in the air, your Fifth Uncle's performance is very good this year, and the other Department's Assistant Minister is favored. Originally, when the Department's President was very old, everyone thought that the position of the Department's President would belong to your Fifth Uncle, but now that this happens … ”It is hard to say who the position of the Office's President is.”

Actually, even an inner chamber woman like her could see that Lin Pei's actions last year were a little strange. It's fine if he didn't visit home often, but he also repeatedly committed small mistakes in the imperial court … Now that the Elder Zhang was old, it was the most critical time, so how could Lin Pei make a mistake?

However, Lin Qian was obviously very happy, ”If Fifth Uncle cannot enter the Cabinet, I wonder what will Sister Shu be so arrogant for in the future …”

In fact, these few years, it was not Lin Shu who had acted arrogantly, it was Lin Shu who saw her true face and chose to distance herself from her. But previously, she did not know how many good things she had taken from Lin Shu and the Madam Lian, and they were all gone in a moment.

This was exactly what he meant!

Second Madam patted her hand and said softly: ”You, when will you grow up? How can you not understand such logic? Your uncle and your father are both unreliable, if not for the support of your Fifth Uncle, I am afraid that even a first-rate Honorable House would not be able to stand in line and become destitute like that Duke Chengan Palace. You are a lady with the Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion, could it be that you will have face once you leave this place? ”

She was very smart, knowing that she could not write the words Lin, she wanted Lin Pei to enter the cabinet, and even become the main assistant.

Lin Qian curled her lips and said: ”But I … But I just can't stand Lin Shu's look … ”

The Second Madam laughed, in truth, she had not liked Lin Shu all these years, but she was not Lin Qian, so his reaction was not that obvious, ”Why are you getting angry at her? After eight or ten years, she will be the only one who dares to provoke you. There is no need to be unhappy now, it does not seem petty. It is exactly the same as Lin Lian! ”

Lin Qian thought for a while, and thought that the best way to marry someone was through the Lin Family. Once Lin Hui married someone, she would become her wife, but how could the Huaiyin Palace compare to the Duke Andong Palace? Not to mention that in a few years, she would become a Duke Andong’s wife.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but straighten her back a little, ”Mother, you are the best to me in this world!”

Now, she didn't even dream of marrying into the imperial family anymore. Forget about everything else, she just looked at Zhang Yuanqing, and heard people saying that Zhang Yuanqing didn't seem to be doing well … That's right, none of the imperial women seemed to be doing well, and now she finally understood this logic.

Seeing that she was no longer crying like before, Second Madam patted her back and said, ”In this world, if I don't treat you well, who will? Although the Duke Andong’s wife was tricky, how many years could he endure? ”After ten or twenty years, you have the final say in this Duke Andong Palace. Whatever she does to you today, you can just return it back to her. If you keep thinking this way, no matter how hard she tries to make things difficult for you, you will still have hope in your heart.”

”At that time, County Prince s of the Duke Andong Palace will be working outside all day, could it be that they can still meddle in the affairs of the Inner Palace?” This was also why her Grand Madam's temper was so bad, and why she had always followed his lead. She believed that one day, she would make a comeback, and that she would return all the suffering and suffering she had endured.

She was not a kind-hearted person!

With this, Lin Qian would be peacefully preparing for marriage in the mansion.
