Chapter 65
Su Yinyin heard the news as soon as she returned to the capital.
Blessed people.
The famous little matchmaker.
All the arranged marriages are excellent.
When these words were spoken, not only did the people of West City know about them, but many people in the capital had heard about them.
From the earliest marriage between the Cheng and Zhang families, now their children are old enough to help with the cooking.
The two families went from being at loggerheads to being in-laws, and now they are completely different from the past.
After that, there were many marriages that are so enviable.
The Li family in the orchard on the outskirts of the city took in a son-in-law, and they are living a happy life.
The man inside kept saying that he was lucky to have listened to the advice and married into the wife's family, otherwise he would not only have a wife and children now, but would probably have become a homeless person after the restaurant went bankrupt.
Although it was a joke, the guys they worked with before almost became beggars.
Not to mention the past two years.
The wedding of Yufeng at the He family's pharmacy, and the marriage of Li Zhuangyuan and the princess.
All of them have attracted much attention.
Su Yinyin's name had long since spread throughout the streets and alleys because of these things.
There was a long queue of people who wanted her to marry them.
Not to mention the dim sum shop she opened, people from all over the capital lined up to buy their snacks.
There are even people who come to Xicheng specifically to buy snacks, which shows how capable she is.
It is most appropriate that such a person was chosen to participate in this year's winter festival.
Many neighbors looked at the Su family with envy.
Little did they know that the emperor and empress couldn't help but shed tears when they saw Su Yinyin's special recipe.
They knew that the prince's health would get better and better, it would definitely get better.
If it weren't for Su Yinyin, the prince wouldn't be able to supervise government affairs, and it would be a question whether he could stay healthy or even leave the palace.
Now there is a special recipe, which is not only suitable for the disease, but also because it was prepared by Su Yinyin herself, Yuan'er will definitely eat it.
They no longer have to worry about their children's health.
The two people who were supporting the Wanlong Kingdom to its downfall rarely had such vulnerable moments.
"Don't cry, we are finally going to see the child."
"Yeah, this is a good opportunity."
The two had wanted to meet Su Yinyin for a long time.
Although they had never seen her, they had heard a lot about her portrait and stories.
Compared to many people who think she is a matchmaker, the two of them value her character and intelligence more.
He has been studying with the prince since he was young. He is smart, has good writing skills and beautiful handwriting.
Also, when she handles things, she is neither humble nor arrogant, but polite and decent. Many young ladies and young men trained in big families are not as insightful as her.
It is said that household chores are the hardest to settle, but in her hands, everything can be done.
The emperor and empress believed that Su Yinyin was definitely the most suitable princess consort.
Of course, it’s also because Yuaner really likes it.
Su Yinyin sat at home, listening to her friends talking about what they were saying. She was already cramming her etiquette skills.
Fortunately, the palace sent someone to teach me, but the more I learned, the more I realized it didn't seem like it was only used during the winter festival.
The palace maid smiled and said, "It's always good to learn more."
Looking at the other person's eyes, Su Yinyin understood.
But aren't these things happening too fast?
She and Li Ruiyuan were just getting started.
It didn't take me long to figure it out.
Little did she know that the palace had already prepared everything, just waiting for her to give in.
Seeing that she accepted the status of Crown Prince, all progress must have been accelerated.
It just so happened that Li Yuqing had not left Beijing yet. As a princess, she was most familiar with the palace etiquette, so she followed to help and give instructions.
But more often than not, she still pulled Su Yinyin in shock: "Really? It's really you."
Although I had guessed it before, it was still incredible to see the road being paved in the palace now.
The palace is meticulous in its work, so it's not without reason that they send people to teach so many etiquettes.
No matter how you look at it, it seems like he can't wait.
At this point, Su Yinyin nodded: "That's what happened anyway."
"So what do you think?"
Su Yinyin thought about it, told what happened over the years, and finally said: "Now I understand, no matter who he is, he is my good friend who I have played with since childhood."
Then the relationship gradually deteriorated.
The first time she wanted to stay away from Yuan Rui was when she realized this feeling.
But I didn’t go very far, as I still had a lot of awkward thoughts at that time.
Then she realized that Yuan Rui's identity was even more different than she had imagined.
My thought at that time was that I was really leaving this time.
No matter what feelings you have for him, don't think about it anymore and don't let it spread.
But how can one control emotions?
There is no need to say what happened afterwards.
So many people have emotional entanglements, some are sincere, some are hypocritical.
From this, she realized that it was useless to escape blindly, and Li Ruiyuan would not let her escape anyway.
And she had to admit that selling misery was really effective if it was sold to the right people.
It worked for her anyway.
She knew that feeling all too well.
He grabbed a piece of driftwood and tried to climb up.
But for people like them, even the act of turning over is very difficult.
How much she wanted to hold on to her parents and brother, how attached she was to her family.
That's how much Li Ruiyuan is attached to himself.
This kind of attachment is exactly what she needs.
Not very healthy.
But it really gave her a sense of security.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. I made some new snacks. Do you want to try them?" Su Yinyin made up her mind and didn't think about anything else.
Li Yuqing nodded immediately.
Of course you have to eat it!
This is a snack made by the future Crown Princess.
And it tastes so good.
Thinking about it this way, the prince is really lucky.
The court was also preparing for the winter festival.
November 16th.
Su Yinyin was picked up by people from the palace in a dress.
The other members of the Su family watched anxiously, feeling that something was wrong.
Are you taking it away now?!
Commander Su tried even harder to slow down, and Su Xian also had the urge to snatch his sister away.
They always felt like they had fallen into a trap.
Is this really the Winter Festival?
It's just the winter festival, right?
Commander Su was thinking hard at the Military Affairs Department.
Madam Su was still in a daze while making snacks.
Su Xian slammed the table in the Shan Family Academy and said, "Not good."
Su Xian's teacher looked at his beloved disciple and asked, "What's wrong? Is there something you don't understand?"
In the next provincial examination, Master Su Xian hopes that his beloved disciple will pass the examination and win the first place.
There cannot be anything that you don’t understand.
Su Xian gritted his teeth and said, "It's not a matter of scholarship."
But he looked at the book in his hand again: "It's also a matter of scholarship."
If the royal family really wants to settle the relationship between my sister and the prince.
Then he should study harder and become a supporter to his sister in the future.
Otherwise, it would be very dangerous for a girl like him to marry into the royal family.
When he was taking the exam to become a scholar, he studied hard in order to pay less tuition.
Now I have to study harder for my sister.
Master Su Xian discovered that his beloved disciple seemed to be working harder?!
If this continues, not to mention becoming the first place in the provincial examination, there is a high possibility that he will even become the top place in the imperial examination.
Su Yinyin was brought to the palace first. The palace servants serving her were actually from the Hot Spring Palace, and they were obviously transferred here specially for her.
The other party whispered: "Don't worry, Miss Su, we will take care of everything."
Su Yinyin nodded. She was more curious at the moment. Ancient people attached great importance to sacrifices, and she didn't know what the process of the winter sacrifice was.
Not only was she curious, but the common people who were also summoned into the palace couldn't help but look around.
Some of them are very old, some are well-known for their virtue, some have raised many orphans, and there is even an old farmer who is very good at farming among them.
Everyone was excited to have the opportunity to attend this year's Winter Festival.
But before they could think more about it, they heard someone come to report that the queen wanted to summon them.
Everyone quickly stood up, straightened their clothes, and stood respectfully.
Before the sacrifice, the Queen had to summon many people, including female officials and royal relatives, all of whom were waiting to meet her.
When it was finally their turn as a group of common people entered the main hall, many people looked over, many with smiles, and reassured them not to worry.
"The Queen is kind and compassionate, and will not be harsh."
"Just go in and pay your respects, and you can come out after receiving your reward."
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is here too, don't forget to pay your respects."
The prince is also here.
Su Yinyin followed everyone into the main hall.
The furnishings of the main hall are somewhat similar to those of the temporary palace, and the layout is similar to that of the East Palace. Once you enter it, you don't feel too cramped.
Su Yinyin followed the others to greet them, and heard a gentle and generous female voice saying, "Stand up."
Su Yinyin looked up and happened to meet the eyes of the Queen, who was in the highest position.
The queen was dressed in luxurious attire, but her eyes were extremely gentle when she looked at her. Although it was the first time they met, they were not strangers to each other.
When Su Yinyin looked up again, she saw Li Ruiyuan standing behind her.
I have confirmed countless times that this is the prince, and I know it even more this time.
He was wearing the crown of a prince, which was completely different from usual.
But she also knew that this was still Yuan Rui who had helped her rescue the young couple.
No matter which one it is, it's him.
Seeing this, the Queen couldn't help but smile again and waved to Su Yinyin: "Little matchmaker Su Yinyin, I have heard of your name for a long time. Now I finally see you."
Su Yinyin stepped forward, and the queen held her hand, her eyes full of appreciation: "Just stay with me."
Is this appropriate?
Su Yinyin subconsciously looked at Li Ruiyuan, but seeing that his eyes were on her, she simply looked back.
Li Ruiyuan moved inside and gave her the seat next to him. The meaning was self-evident.
"Good child, stay with me." The queen said with a smile.
Recently, everyone in the palace has been following Yin Yin's recipes to prepare food, and it turned out to be very effective.
Yuan'er's health has improved over the years, and it is even better now.
Su Yinyin also felt that Li Ruiyuan's face had more flesh than before, and he looked more majestic. When she stood beside him, she couldn't help but ask, "Have you grown taller again?"
Li Ruiyuan lowered his head: "Well, you raised him well."
The two children were whispering to each other, and the queen's smile grew even wider.
The knot in her heart that had been bothering her for many years was finally untied.
The winter festival team set out, and Su Yinyin stayed by the queen's side.
After returning to Beijing, all the civil and military officials in the court knew about this woman named Su Yinyin. She was very beautiful and tall. Although she was not very old, she had her own principles in doing things.
Many people were in the hall. Whose daughter was this? Could she be the candidate for Crown Princess that the Queen had mentioned a few days ago?
After learning about her family background, he couldn't help but say, "To say that her family background is not high is too low."
"She has a reputation as a matchmaker. Are you asking her to help bring the Crown Prince along?"
The prince is over seventeen years old and it is time for him to get married.
Amidst all the doubts from all sides, Su Yinyin was frequently summoned to the palace, mainly to talk to the Queen.
Forget about these.
It was known that during the spring ploughing next year, Su Yinyin would accompany the emperor, empress and prince to plant new seedlings.
The new seedlings they selected are called beets, and their roots can be used to make sugar.
When this news came out, most people were confused.
Why.
Why Su Yinyin?
At the same time, I couldn’t help but ask, what are beets?
Fortunately, there are answers to both questions.
Beet is a crop that can be used to make sugar. Remember that last year sugar merchants disrupted sugar prices because they were afraid of this thing.
Having said that, many people recalled what happened at that time.
At that time, it was said that new crops would emerge and produce more and better sugar.
Someone else said that this thing was proposed by Su Yinyin. She always makes desserts and has tried many kinds of sugar. Among them, beet sugar is the best, so she recommended it to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
That’s right, Su Yinyin and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince have known each other for a long time, and they are childhood sweethearts!
The story begins with the marriage between the Cheng and Zhang families in the third year of Ansheng!
Almost overnight, everyone in the streets and alleys of Beijing knew about this incident.
It is absolutely impossible to say that the prince had no hand in fanning the flames.
Su Yinyin even felt that Li Ruiyuan was a little too anxious.
When Sister Zhang came to see her with the child, there was still shock on her face.
It turns out that the person who persuaded her to be with her husband that night was the prince?!
Is that how they met?!
Su Yinyin thought to herself, in fact, it was earlier than that time.
But she was a baby at that time, so it was better not to tell her, otherwise it would be too weird.
After Sister Zhang sighed for a while, she added, "I took you with me during the winter festival and during the spring plowing. Even if you don't get married, you should get engaged."
No one in the court dares to oppose this matter now.
After all, the emperor and empress’s intentions were very clear, and they both supported Su Yinyin.
Besides, such important beets were also her credit, not to mention that no one could change the prince's mind.
Miss Zhang understood that as long as Su Yinyin nodded, this matter would be accomplished immediately.
Friends were shocked by this.
This was especially true for the two stores, as well as the several branches that Su Yinyin had previously negotiated with, all of which gave in almost immediately.
If the future Crown Princess wants to open a branch, she must be given the place.
Therefore, Su Yinyin didn't dare to bargain, for fear of being accused of taking advantage.
Sister Lan, who was accompanying Yin Yin to prepare for the branch, felt even more dizzy.
An Guilan and Su Xian's relationship has basically been settled, and they will have their wedding tomorrow autumn.
In Madam Su's words, once the marriage is settled, she can prepare for the exam with peace of mind.
After spending this period of time together, Lan Niang has become a member of the Su family.
Lan Niang thought her life was good enough.
But the recent changes caught her off guard.
How come my future husband's family is still related to the prince?
Is the young man who often comes to the store to look for Yin Yin the prince?
Are they childhood sweethearts?
In short, these things always seemed unbelievable to her, and it seemed like she was lying when she talked about them.
But that's the way it is.
Moreover, the palace now sends gifts without telling anyone else. Everyone knows that the palace is very satisfied with Su Yinyin and is just waiting to marry her home.
Yinyin was still preparing for the branch store as usual: "It's still early, there's no need to rush."
When Li Ruiyuan heard this, his eyes darkened. He looked at her and said, "Why are you in a hurry?"
"Are you anxious?" Su Yinyin asked directly.
"Of course." Li Ruiyuan looked at her and said, "I want to get married on the first day you don't reject me."
This progress is too fast!
Su Yinyin felt that the two of them were not on the same channel at all.
After a while, Li Ruiyuan said, "We can put the marriage on hold, or should we get engaged first?"
Su Yinyin had seen many weddings, but she had never seen one so anxious: "Your Highness, are you so anxious because you can't find a wife?"
This was of course a joke. How could a prince not be able to marry a wife? It was just that he couldn't marry the one he wanted.
Seeing Li Ruiyuan's earnest eyes, Su Yinyin said, "I'm getting married before my branch is even opened. What should I do in the future?"
"Just drive it as usual." Li Ruiyuan said directly, "What's the big deal?"
Su Yinyin didn't say anything and continued to fiddle with her ingredients. Seeing that Li Ruiyuan noticed something was wrong, Su Yinyin simply said, "Do you know what requirements my husband must meet if I want to get married?"
I didn't intend to say this now.
It’s just that Li Ruiyuan moved too fast.
The road was also paved smoothly.
For her now, it wouldn't be wrong to walk with her eyes closed.
But she knows there are still obstacles along the way.
Li Ruiyuan looked at her and suddenly smiled: "You have arranged many marriages over the years."
Yeah, what's wrong.
Li Ruiyuan shook his head: "You talk, I listen."
Su Yinyin put down what she was holding and looked directly into the other person's eyes: "I know you are the prince."
"I also know that you are the heir to the Wanlong Kingdom."
"But my husband cannot take a concubine, and he cannot even have the thought of doing so."
This is impossible not only for the royal family, but also for ordinary noble families.
"So you have been procrastinating during this period of time." Li Ruiyuan pointed out the problem directly.
No matter what happened in the palace or what he did, Yin Yin passively accepted it but never took the initiative.
She was waiting, waiting for her enthusiasm to fade, waiting for opposition from the court.
I waited and waited, but got nothing.
After all, none of the previous events would have led to this.
Su Yinyin knew that this was ancient times and that the situation in the royal family was different, but this was her requirement. If the other party had any ulterior motives, she would leave immediately.
Li Ruiyuan held her face and said word by word: "You have arranged many marriages over the years. I have been watching and learning."
"How can there be anyone else in this life except you?"
"I'll be angry if you promise to have someone else."
Not just angry, but furious.
There is nothing better than having someone you love all to yourself.
He would never let anyone stand between them.
Su Yinyin did not feel flattered by Li Ruiyuan's answer, but was more surprised that he had guessed it long ago?
The bad thing about childhood sweethearts is that there are no secrets at all.
I thought this was a killer move.
Su Yinyin stood on tiptoe and held the other person's face. After a while, she said, "I believe you."
This is also the advantage of childhood sweethearts.
No matter how many things Li Ruiyuan has on his mind, he will definitely fulfill what he promised.
There is no doubt about this.
A silly smile appeared on the boy and girl's face.
It’s great to have childhood sweethearts.
The two hands were secretly held together and then quickly let go before returning to the Su family.
It seemed that their marriage was settled.
Xiao Hongniang's marriage was also settled.
When the palace heard the good news, the emperor and the empress could not hide their excitement.
The Su family was not surprised, but also worried.
It seems that the family must work hard to pass the imperial examinations and get promoted, otherwise how can they support their daughter.
The new year has come, it’s the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
Su Yinyin's coming-of-age ceremony at the age of fifteen was held in the palace.
The Queen Mother invited Madam Su to come into the palace to complete the ceremony together.
The court was no longer surprised by the emperor and empress's attitude.
After learning about the relationship between the prince and Su Yinyin over the years, everyone knows how important Miss Su is to the prince.
Without her, there would be no prince today.
After Su Yinyin came of age, the Queen wanted them to get engaged. After she refused many times, the Queen finally put the matter on hold.
She also wants to open more Su’s Dim Sum branches and make more delicious dim sum.
There's no need to be so anxious.
Finally, the two families decided to prepare for the wedding first, get engaged after two years, and get married after three years.
A long, long time later, when history books mention Li Ruiyuan and Su Yinyin, they will say that they were not only a match made in heaven, but also created the most prosperous hundred years for the Wanlong Kingdom.
The recipes left by Su Yinyin and the legend of matchmaker have lasted for thousands of years.
