What favor are you fighting for?The empress's harem has won a lot of business

Chapter 275 - The Lin family is happy
"You two are just being too careful. Why isn't a good girl lively at all?"

Gu Yu is okay, Li Xia took a step back in fright, and said cautiously.

"My maidservant has just come to be a first-class maid. I am afraid that I will not be able to serve you well and make the empress angry. If there is something wrong with this maidservant, please don't take it to heart."

Lin Ximeng shook her head: "No, you don't have to do this, just do whatever you want."

She looked at the parrots hanging on the porch, then got up and went to the back to look at the little pets she raised, touched this one, kissed that one, feeling very emotional for a while.

"I still remember that when I entered the palace at the beginning of the year, I was nothing. I liked kittens and didn't dare to raise them. Later, I finally raised a snowball. That cat died soon due to illness, and I stopped raising it later because I was sad. "

"Now I have all kinds of animals here, but none of them are as obedient as my Snowball"

In other words, now that I have the most noble life, I feel very nostalgic about the past.

"Forget it"

Lin Ximeng stretched her waist, and her whole body was exhausted.

If you don't give birth, you won't give birth, let's just lie flat in this life, and the goal set at the beginning can be regarded as realized.

It was almost noon, and it was time to eat.

Lin Ximeng suddenly got good news, saying that Lin Zhengxiao's marriage was settled.

"Which family is the girl from?"

Gu Yu shook her head: "I haven't heard of this, if you are curious, you might as well go out of the palace to have a look."

Of course you have to go out.

Lin Ximeng is already a noble concubine, a real assistant to the Sixth Palace, she doesn't even need to hand anyone a sign to go out.

So the next day, which was the last day of the first month, Lin Ximeng changed into plain clothes, took a light carriage, and left.

Lin House.

Lin Zhengxiao was already able to set up a family, but it was still that simple mansion.

But the atmosphere in the mansion is much better than before.

Mother and Second Aunt happily watched Lin Zhengxiao go up and down every day, socializing with the ladies and wives in the capital.

These aristocratic families in the capital have extremely keen sense of smell, and of course they know that the future Lin family is the real upstart.

So when talking and laughing, I can't tell the kindness.

Their level is so high that even Mrs. Lin herself can't tell that she is being flattered, but she just feels that she is being flattered.

After going back and forth, many people made friends with each other.

This time the girl, the future daughter-in-law of the Lin family, was selected from a fourth-rank Hanlin Dianxiu family.

"Why did mother choose such a family?"

After getting off the carriage, Lin Ximeng went straight to her mother's room. There was no blame in her tone, it was just an ordinary daughter's concern.

Mrs. Lin smiled: "Of course it's good to look at that girl, a white and tender little girl, she is lovable just by looking at it."

"It's much more likable," Lin Ximeng smiled.

"That's right, it's a pity that I only have one son, otherwise I would marry them and watch them surround me every day"

Lin Ximeng leaned beside her mother, and muttered for a while that I wanted to see that girl too.

Mrs. Lin tapped her head.

"You, you, better take care of yourself, don't just look at Ninth Prince Shu Shizi every day, where is your own child?"

"Mother has told you so many times, to persuade the emperor to enjoy the rain and dew, you can't occupy the emperor"

"It doesn't matter whose child it is, there must be some. The emperor always has a child to inherit the country."

Lin Ximeng repeatedly said no, and Mrs. Lin had no choice but to shake her head.

"You, you, look at your sister Xiyan, she is already pregnant."

"So fast?"

Speaking of Lin Xiyan.

Although she was born in the Lin family, because of her previous experience, she didn't have to think about marrying into a high family, she had to marry at a low level.

Ordinarily, she could only marry a merchant or a lower-level craftsman, but the Lin family was the Lin family after all.

Some large households in the more remote suburbs of Beijing are also rushing to ask for it.

The second aunt made thousands of choices, and finally chose a rich peasant family. The family's surname was Guo, and they were well-known local wealthy families.

In addition to hundreds of acres of land, there are two hills planted with peach, plum and apricot trees, and four fish ponds, each of which is more than half an acre in size.

The most important thing is that the son of that family is both civil and military, and looks good. It is said that he even worked as a thousand households in the garrison in the suburbs of Beijing, so he has some prospects.

The second aunt carefully selected, and cousin Xiyan was also satisfied.

Lin Ximeng once questioned that family, why the Tangtang Gengduzhi family would be willing to marry such a woman.

As far as she knew, these scholars had no family property yet, so they had hard bones, sour and rotten, and they would rather starve to death than serve the rich and powerful.

It was later discovered that the old man of the Guo family had received favors from his father. Of course it was not a big deal, but he remembered it in his heart.

This marriage is also a match made in heaven.

It has been almost a year since Lin Xiyan got married, and the second aunt was worried every day that her daughter would be bullied or looked down upon by her in-laws.

As a result, every time Lin Xiyan came back, her little face was flushed.

She also said in private that her husband loves her so much that he even takes care of the daily meals himself.

The Lin family finally let go of the heart that was in their throats.

Now that Lin Xiyan is pregnant, it is another happy event, and the second aunt has fulfilled her wish.

It is precisely because of this that the pressure is on Lin Ximeng.

Lin Ximeng was troubled.

He never expected to escape the emperor, the ministers, but not his own mother.

"It's not that I don't want to have a baby, mother, don't ask, it will happen naturally when the time comes."

The mother poked her daughter on the head.

"You child is disobedient, the emperor really spoiled you"

The mother and daughter are intimate again, the only regret is that they still haven't seen the little girl.

After returning to the palace, Lin Xi dreamed for a while, and decided to meet Lin Zhengxiao.

The siblings met in the Imperial Garden, and Lin Ximeng asked straight to the point, have you seen the girl from the Huo family?

Lin Zhengxiao, who was originally serious, turned red up to the neck in an instant.

"seen"

"Yes, unfortunately I haven't seen it, when will I bring it for me to meet?"

Lin Zhengxiao raised her head immediately, with a nervous expression.

"Xiaoxiao is timid, she will be scared when she sees the empress"

Lin Ximeng: "..."

Look, this is so guarded before she gets married.

"No wonder you suddenly said that you want to get engaged. Last time I went home, my mother was still worried about choosing a daughter-in-law. Then there was news of the engagement."

"So it was you who saw it yourself"

Lin Zhengxiao blushed even more, scratched her head and had no place to put her hands and feet, and finally twisted her hands.

"Mother also likes it very much. She took the lady and talked a lot, and made an appointment to go to incense on the third day of every month."

Lin Ximeng finally understood the twists and turns. It turned out that they met when they were offering incense. Whether they were elders or juniors, the more they looked at each other, the more pleasing they were, and they recognized each other every time they came and went!

The next thing is also a matter of course.

"Okay, we'll see each other in the future anyway, you remember to treat him well, since I'm timid, I'll disappear"
