Chapter 170 Mutual Love
Princess Jing was speechless.
She was just the daughter of an ordinary wealthy family, and in front of those noble ladies, she was at most a beautiful girl from a small family. The reason why she could become a princess was simple: Prince Jing liked her.
The simplest and most difficult reason.
For this reason, Prince Jing would rather be scolded by the late emperor and lose his favor.
After all she had experienced, how could she stop her son from marrying the girl he loved?
"Since Shuo'er likes her, I will go to the General's Mansion in person tomorrow to test their opinion. The last time I asked someone to propose marriage, Mrs. Lin didn't agree." Having said that, Princess Jing became a little angry again.
She actually looks down on such a good eldest son!
I was so angry that I didn't want to go.
But her son likes it - Princess Jing swallowed her anger silently.
The prince is right, it’s because his son likes it.
After dinner, Prince Jing and his wife washed and undressed, then lay side by side and discussed things until very late before going to bed.
The next morning, spring light filled every corner of Ping'anfang, and birds on the branches sang happily. Princess Jing sent someone to the general's mansion to deliver a letter.
Lin was a little surprised when she received the invitation from Princess Jing that she would be visiting.
Although the two families live close to each other, they don't actually interact much. Why did Princess Jing suddenly come to visit?
Could it be that he came here to ask for a thank-you gift?
This guess flashed through his mind, and Lin shook his head.
Over the years, she has seen that Princess Jing is a straightforward person, so it wouldn't be that serious.
Lin became curious, and when Princess Jing came, she was obviously much more enthusiastic than usual.
Princess Jing suddenly gained confidence.
Judging from Mrs. Lin's attitude, the marriage will definitely be successful.
The beautiful maid served tea and left, and Lin invited Princess Jing to have tea.
"I also said that I would go to the palace today to express my gratitude to the prince."
"Mrs. Lin was talking about the startled horse yesterday?" Princess Jing smiled and waved her hand. "There's no need to thank me for that. Anyone who sees a situation like that would help if they can. Besides, we're neighbors."
"It may be a piece of cake for the prince, but it helps the general's mansion a lot." Lin said politely, becoming more and more puzzled.
Since it has nothing to do with what happened yesterday, why did Princess Jing come to visit? It couldn't be just a simple visit, right?
The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and just as Lin's curiosity was about to get out of control, Princess Jing finally revealed the purpose of her visit: "Yesterday, Shuo'er brought the second young lady back, and I happened to see her. I suddenly realized that the two children are quite a good match. Shuo'er is twenty years old this year, and the second young lady is seventeen. It's time for them to talk about marriage. What do you think of pairing the two children up?"
Lin was stunned.
Princess Jing came to ask for Ah Hao’s hand in marriage on behalf of her son?
Is her memory confused? She clearly remembered that Prince Jing's Mansion had proposed marriage, but she rejected it.
So this was the second time - Lin suddenly felt a little proud and a little moved.
Look at Prince Jing’s Mansion. Their son is so weak, but they are not afraid to marry a strong and capable wife. They are much better than those families.
It’s a pity that Prince Jing is weak.
Lin thought of this in time and pinched her thigh secretly.
calm!
"The two children are of similar character, appearance, family background, and age. It's rare that they know each other so well. Mrs. Lin has watched Shuo'er grow up, so she should know that Shuo'er is reliable..."
Lin listened to Princess Jing's list of her son's strengths and sighed silently: It's a pity that Prince Jing is weak.
"What does Mrs. Lin mean?" Princess Jing said, then picked up the teacup and took a sip.
I've said everything that needs to be said, and I've kept my attitude to the lowest possible level. If the General's Mansion still doesn't want to, then I can only say that my son has no chance with Miss Lin Er.
Lin didn't refuse outright: "The prince is indeed a top-notch talent among the younger generation in the capital, but for such a major matter, I still need to discuss it with my mother."
More importantly, ask your daughter what she means.
Prince Renjing had many advantages, but his frail health was the only one that Lin disapproved of. However, she would not make decisions for her daughter without authorization, especially after discovering that she was more thoughtful than she was.
She never thought that parents necessarily knew more than their children.
"Of course. I'll wait for news from Mrs. Lin." Princess Jing put down her teacup and stood up to say goodbye.
As soon as Princess Jing left, Lin ran to the old lady and happily told her about Princess Jing's proposal. "I was worried that no one would come to propose marriage, but I didn't expect someone to come today."
The old lady saw things more clearly than Lin: "Don't be complacent, in the short term, it may only be Prince Jing's Mansion."
Lin's smile faded: "What's the matter?"
"If I remember correctly, this is the second time Prince Jing's family has come to ask for Ah's hand in marriage, okay?"
Lin nodded.
"So what do you think? Princess Jing must marry Ah Hao as her daughter-in-law? If she had another daughter-in-law, she wouldn't even enjoy her meals."
"Impossible." Lin still had some self-awareness.
The old lady glared at her daughter and said, "Then tell me, why did Prince Jing's Mansion come to propose marriage again after you rejected them?"
"Yes, why?" Lin was at a loss.
The old lady was very disappointed: "Because of Prince Jing!"
Lin was still confused.
The old lady had no choice but to point out: "The most likely possibility is that Prince Jing is in love with Ah Hao, and Princess Jing is proposing marriage a second time for the sake of her son."
Lin suddenly realized: "So that's how it is."
It's so!
"They are a perfect match in every aspect, and what's even more rare is that he really likes Ah Hao. It can be said to be a good marriage." said the old lady.
Lin couldn't help but remind him, "But Prince Jing is not in good health."
The old lady glared at her and said, "You're not going to refuse directly, are you?"
"No, I have to discuss it with you and ask Ah Hao's opinion."
The old lady's stern expression softened.
Although my daughter is not very smart, at least she doesn't make decisions on the whim.
The old lady called out, "Duofu, please ask the second young lady to come over."
The head maid Duofu quickly rushed to Luoyingju and invited Lin Hao over.
"Grandma wants to talk to me about something?" Lin Hao had a vague guess in his mind, but he didn't show it on his face.
The old lady glanced at Lin and said, "Prince Jing's wife came over today and expressed her desire to ask for you in marriage on behalf of Prince Jing. Ah Hao, what do you think?"
Young men and women are at the stage of falling in love for the first time. Is Prince Jing the only one who is moved?
The old lady doesn't think so.
When two people are of equal social status and love each other, that is a true good marriage.
Under the gaze of the old lady and Lin, Lin Hao blushed uncontrollably and said obediently, "I will listen to my grandmother and mother."
Lin stared at her daughter suspiciously.
That’s not right. That’s not what Ah Hao said last time.
"Ah Hao, tell me what you think first. After all, this is your lifelong event. You can't just listen to the elders."
The old lady rolled her eyes at Lin and said, "What you mean is that she is willing. As the elders, please quickly finalize the marriage."
"Grandma, mother, I'm going to see my eldest sister." Lin Hao fled in panic because of the old lady's words.
Lin pinched herself and finally realized: "Ah Hao likes Prince Jing?"
When did this happen!
