Chapter 587 Fake Marriage
When soldiers come, we'll meet them head-on; when water comes, we'll dam it. Following the secrets taught by the pockmarked man, we must stay calm and not panic in the face of trouble.
"But Miss, you can't not be anxious."
Longjing is young and impatient, so Qin's approach is quite clever in some ways.
"She wanted you to marry Young Master Wei in place of Lin Yue'e, but she herself had no right to bring up the matter of a substitute marriage, so she devised a plan to get the Wei family to bring it up on their own initiative."
Thus, Qin Shi and Lin Yue'e remained uninvolved, and it was Lord Wei who brought it up to Lin Shusheng.
"The Wei family is a powerful and influential family in the capital, with a deeper foundation than the Lin and Qin families. Once they gain something, Miss, you will be sold out!"
Longjing was so angry that her face turned red. Qin was really too despicable!
"Looks like you've also realized that my scumbag dad is unreliable."
Lin Yuesha continued peeling the grapes, stuffing the glistening grapes into Longjing's mouth and laughing, "This is the capital, not the north. It's hot here, you little girl, calm down."
"Miss, you're still laughing? Don't you realize how serious the problem is!"
With grapes stuffed into his mouth, Longjing helplessly emphasized that they had to take this seriously and come up with a plan to avoid resistance.
White tea was slightly better, more patient than Longjing tea. She asked, "Miss, do you have a solution?"
"No."
This was somewhat different from what Lin Yuesha had anticipated. If it were Qin Shi who decided to marry her off, her scumbag father and Old Madam Lin might object. However, if the Wei family brought it up with her scumbag father, there would be no room for negotiation.
What grandparent-grandchild relationship, father-daughter relationship? They're more plastic than plastic. Who has any use to them? It's the eldest daughter of the Lin family.
"Actually, what I fear most is not the Wei family mentioning it."
If she doesn't want to get married, no one can take her in. Is there nowhere in the world she can't find a place to belong? The small Lin family mansion simply can't confine her.
Lin Yuesha was worried about another issue.
"Miss, I understand."
Longjing suddenly realized that in the afternoon, Miss and Qin Nanyan were chatting and the Wei family was mentioned. Qin Nanyan specifically mentioned that the Wei family's daughter, who was also the elder sister of Young Master Wei, was the current Empress, the mother of the nation.
If the Empress's younger brother is getting married, then a marriage decree must be issued. If so, and the young lady refuses the marriage, it would be a serious crime of disobeying the imperial decree!
Longjing was anxious; he couldn't even swallow the grapes in his mouth, and his heart was burning with rage.
"Just remember this: as long as I don't want to get married, no one can force me."
Lin Yuesha was very determined on this point. At worst, she would just stand in the pockmarked man's camp and raise the banner of rebellion!
But these were just some thoughts in her mind. No wonder men are ambitious. The pockmarked man was right. As long as you reach the highest position and are powerful enough, you won't need to compromise with anyone.
At first, Lin Yuesha thought that having some money would allow her family to live well in Chenjia Village, but reality gave her a harsh slap in the face.
As she climbed higher and higher, eventually arriving in the capital, she still couldn't take control of her own life.
"Lin Yue'e can fill out the marriage application herself."
Don't even think about letting her replace you; that's absolutely impossible.
"Now the Wei family is willing to take over, but all of this was secretly arranged by the Qin family. They are too vicious."
Bai Cha couldn't help but curse. Luckily, it was discovered in time; otherwise, with the Wei family pulling such a stunt, their side wouldn't even have had time to react.
"It's not Qin's fault for being vicious, it's your young lady's fault for being too soft-hearted."
Lin Yuesha first looked for the reasons within herself. Although she had managed to win over Xiao He after arriving at the Lin residence, she was still in a very passive position, as she had no capable subordinates.
In the capital, her foundation was too weak, and she rarely had the opportunity to go out, making it difficult to find capable subordinates.
This is something that could have been planned for in advance, but Lin Yuesha hadn't considered it, and she needs to reflect on it.
People who have received modern education find it difficult to engage in violence or to scheme against others with malicious intent, which forces Lin Yuesha to always respond to their attacks. This aspect of her personality is a weakness.
By taking the initiative and annihilating the Qin family without leaving a single survivor, the Qin family had no time to cause any trouble.
"Miss, of course you can't be blamed for this. Is being kind a mistake?"
Bai Cha remained noncommittal, not bothering to scheme against Qin Shi, because in their eyes, Qin Shi was already a dead person.
"Even on her deathbed, she still caused trouble for the young lady, really..."
Longjing was seething with hatred, but there was nothing he could do.
Lin Yuesha rubbed her chin. Her only worry was that the marriage would be arranged so that her family would not be implicated. If her stepbrother passed the imperial examination and became an official in the court, she couldn't afford to offend everyone.
"Actually, your young lady already has a way to escape."
Lin Yuesha came up with a terrible idea, but figuring out who she would scam was crucial.
"What method?"
Bai Cha and Long Jing came over, but the two of them, being rather dim-witted, couldn't come up with an answer no matter how hard they tried.
"Why don't I just get married first before being forced into a marriage?"
Lin Yuesha laughed. Even if the Empress's own brother was paralyzed, he wouldn't marry a woman who had been married before. So this move was a true preemptive strike that perfectly broke the deadlock.
"Miss, you haven't reached the age of marriage yet!"
Bai Cha was taken aback. After thinking it over, he realized that this method was indeed the best.
"Will the Wei family and the Qin family wait until I come of age before making arrangements?"
Lin Yuesha rolled her eyes and gave Bai Cha a flick on the forehead. She must have been eating and drinking her fill with the muscular maid; her brain had completely shut down.
So, I've figured out how to deal with this. The question is, who should I marry?
Before reaching marriageable age, one cannot have sexual relations; it is best to hold a ceremony and have a fake marriage.
Lin Yuesha thought about it for a long time. She didn't know anyone in the capital. Why not ask Xu Da?
"Miss, Lord Xu has already suffered enough by being mistaken for a homosexual. Please let him go!"
Longjing spoke earnestly, saying that Lord Xu was indeed a good person, but one shouldn't always target the same person when trying to cheat others.
Lin Yuesha: ...
What's wrong with her maid? She's siding with outsiders. Shouldn't her safety be the most important thing? The reason Lin Yuesha chose Xu Da was that she thought if she confided in Madam Xu, Madam Xu, being chivalrous, would definitely take action to harm her son first.
The fake marriage had little impact on the man, but Lin Yuesha herself lost her reputation.
Sigh, reputation is just something that doesn't matter; it's all meaningless.
"Miss, you have a great idea."
Bai Cha didn't think there was anything wrong with harming Xu Da; instead, she wondered if there was a better candidate. In the end, she found that the pockmarked face was a good one.
“Miss, Young Master Yun treats you well. Although his appearance… let’s not talk about his appearance for now. He has no relatives, so you won’t have a wicked mother-in-law if you marry into his family. Isn’t that good?”
If it were a real marriage, Xu Da would be the better choice, as his family is harmonious and Madam Xu especially likes Lin Yuesha. However, if it were a fake marriage, the person to be married would have to be simpler. Madam Xu likes her young lady so much, what if she secretly encourages things and thinks that the fake marriage will become real?
To be on the safe side, choosing the pockmarked face is better than choosing Xu Da.
