Daughter of aristocratic family

Chapter 111 Patrolling the Streets
  Along the way where the Jinshi patrolled the streets, there were flags and drums clearing the way, thunderous cheers and the sound of firecrackers.
  The people watching the excitement threw flowers, handkerchiefs, fruits, and purses to these new scholars.
  "Tan Hua Lang, catch my flower." A bold girl shouted loudly.

The common people threw flowers to the new Jinshi, out of love and good intentions, Zhao Yin would not refuse, but the angle the girl threw was too tricky, and Zhao Yin couldn't catch it at all.

But his action of picking up flowers made the people excited, "Tanhua Lang, pick up my flowers."

"Pick me up, mine is a peony."

"Tanhua Lang, look here."

In the hearts of some women, Tanhualang is more popular than the number one scholar, even though the number one scholar is also a handsome man.

Zhao Yin is already handsome, and even more elegant in his Jinshi uniform.

In addition, he is the most popular person in Jinke, with both talent and appearance. What woman wouldn't like him?

Li Lingjuan, who was sitting on the top floor of the No. 1 Scholar, saw Zhao Yin coming on horseback. She leaned half of her body out of the window and shouted loudly: "Brother Zhao, Brother Zhao, I'm here."

Her shout attracted everyone's attention.

Mrs. Zhao Cui's face darkened, and she winked at Tong Xi and Tong Le. Two maids stepped forward, one covered Li Lingxuan's mouth, and the other grabbed her arm and forcibly dragged her away from the window.

Zhao Wangshu sighed secretly. It would be ugly for Li Lingjuan to continue to stalk her when it was clear that she was rejected.

"Brother, brother, you must catch my flower." Zhao Wangshu threw the flower over with all his strength.

Zhao Yin had seen Li Lingjun before, but he ignored her and even wanted to pull his horse to the other side.

It was his sister who was shouting at this moment. She immediately leaned over the horse, stretched out her hand, caught the flower, and pinned it on her hat.

His move caused the girls to throw flowers, purses, handkerchiefs, and fruits at him even more frantically.

The person who threw the fruit had good eyesight and hit the fruit directly between his eyebrows, creating a red dot, which looked like a cinnabar mole.

But it also hurt Zhao Yin. He raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, and the red spots became even redder.

"Brother, you are even more handsome now." Zhao Wangshu shouted loudly.

"Tan Hua Lang, your sister is very cute." Zhou Ye, the number one scholar, said with a smile.

Zhao Yin glanced at him and said calmly: "I have a brother-in-law."

Zhou Ye laughed twice and said, "I also have a sister."

"Marriage matters require the orders of the parents and the words of the matchmaker." Zhao Yin said seriously.

Zhou Ye stopped talking. The more he spoke, the more misunderstanding he got.

Men are getting married when they are college students, and women are getting married when they are college students. Zhao Yin used to concentrate on the imperial examinations, but now that he is the top pick in high school, the matter of getting married is put on the agenda.

Zhao Yin said: "At the beginning of your official career, you should not delay your career because of your children's personal affairs."

"Why are you preparing to become an official and reach the first rank before getting married?" Zhao Cui asked with a straight face.

"Then you are not looking for a wife, you are looking for a wife." Zhao Wangshu was at the side making up for the damage.

Zhao Yin was very helpless that his sister was getting into trouble at this time. "I didn't say that we would get married so late. We will talk about this after I have made some political achievements."

Mrs. Zhao Cui stared at him for a long time, "Brother Yin, you're not still thinking about the Fan family girl, are you?"

"No." Zhao Yin immediately denied it, "I forgot about it a long time ago."

"Just forget it." Mrs. Zhao Cui believed it.

But Zhao Wangshu didn't believe it, and secretly reminded Zhao Cui, "Grandma, brother lied, he pinched his sleeve." "I know, I deliberately didn't expose him." Zhao Cui said with a smile.

"Just let him worry about you like this?" Zhao Wangshu asked with a worried look on his face.

Mrs. Zhao Cui took a cup and took a sip of tea, "Give him another half a year, and then let him go and see each other."

"I'm afraid that my eldest brother will be upset. What he doesn't get will always be remembered and become an indelible cinnabar mole. This is unfair to the future sister-in-law." Zhao Wangshu said.

"Even though we are young and affectionate, we have to let it go when it's time to let it go. If your eldest brother is confused, just wake him up." Zhao Cui said in a deep voice.

After hearing this, Zhao Wangshu nodded slightly, but felt a little worried in his heart. It was impossible for his family to let Zhao Yin not get married, but Zhao Yin would not compromise easily for Fan Jinyao.

She knew very well that if it was not dealt with in time, it would not only affect Zhao Yin's future, but also cause unnecessary trouble to the entire family.

The next day, she went to the study to talk to Zhao Yin, "Brother, I have something to tell you."

Zhao Yin put down the book and looked at Zhao Wangshu, "Yue'er, I know what you want to say to me. You don't have to say anything. I will try to put it down."

"Brother, don't lie to me or yourself." Zhao Wangshu is not that easy to fool.

Zhao Yin was silent for a moment and whispered: "I thought I would spend my whole life with her, but I didn't want something like that to happen suddenly. I know it's impossible for her and me to be together, but that love is hard to let go of for a while."

"Brother, you haven't spent much time with her. Is our affection really as deep as you think?" Zhao Wangshu asked.

Zhao Yin was silent, and Zhao Wangshu continued: "What you love is not Fan Jinyao, but the Fan Jinyao in your imagination. You beautified her."

These words hit the nail on the head, Zhao Yin was stunned and fell into deep thought.

He didn't seem to be aware of this problem, but when he thought about it carefully, it was indeed the case. When he recalled the little moments of getting along with Fan Jinyao, he found that those memories had become too good to be true after the precipitation of time.

Zhao Wangshu looked at him quietly. She knew that only if Zhao Yin thought clearly and understood could he get out of the confusion.

"Maybe you are right, I love her the way I imagined her." Zhao Yin said with a bitter smile.

"Brother, there are many beautiful things in life, but not all of them are worthy of persistence." Zhao Wangshu said.

Zhao Yin was silent again for a long time, and finally nodded, "You're right, I really shouldn't continue to indulge."

"Brother, I'm waiting for you to marry me a good sister-in-law." Zhao Wangshu stood up and left with a smile.

Zhao Yin watched Zhao Wangshu's leaving figure and drank tea slowly.

He has realized that he has been immersed in fantasies about Fan Jinyao and ignored the truth in reality. He understood that it was time to let go of the past and face reality.

While the Zhao family was anxious about Zhao Yin's marriage, the Li family was also anxious about Li Lingjuan's marriage.

Li Lingjuan fell in love with Zhao Yin, and the Li family was happy to see it succeed. However, after the interview, Zhao and Li made it clear that they did not want to be the in-laws of their children.

"Lingjuan will be pregnant next year, but the marriage has not been settled yet. You are not in a hurry, I am," said Mrs. Li Cui.

"Why are you so anxious? I used to be just a scholar, and Linggui's marriage was either high or low. Now I'm about to be appointed an official. Linggui is the daughter of an official family, so it's not easy to find a marriage." Li Jin said.

"Then you look for Lingyi carefully. You must find someone better than the boy from the Zhao family." Mrs. Li Cui was very angry at the Zhao family's refusal to marry. Her daughter is so good, is she not worthy of the boy from the Zhao family?

Li Jin was silent. Zhao Yin was the most talented person in the imperial examination, and he was the seventh grade official when he was awarded the title. It was actually quite difficult to find someone better than him, but he couldn't tell his wife and daughter this.

Ouch, I'm so worried.
