Madam Chang sniffed and flicked the silk handkerchief in her hand to hide the faint redness between her brows. "It's all in the past. What's the point of telling you about it?"
"It's been a long time since the Chang family has had trouble raising children. I'm not the only one being laughed at. Besides, your father has already helped me kill a lot of people. What else can I be dissatisfied with?"
Mrs. Chang coughed uncomfortably when she realized she had said too much. "Oh, it's just a small matter. I'm warning you, little brat."
"Whatever others say, it's none of our business. But if you don't feel sorry for your own wife, it will be too late when others start to feel sorry for you!"
Mrs. Chang slapped Chang Huaijin on the shoulder one after another, until half of his body was numb. He only stopped after dodging backwards with a grimace.
Originally, Lin Chunhuan had some doubts about this matter, but now seeing Mrs. Chang's attitude, although Master Chang didn't say anything, it seemed that he agreed, and for a moment, the uneasiness in his heart was mostly gone.
He raised his hand, called Caiyun over and gave her a few instructions.
Lin Chunhuan waited until Caiyun walked out the door before coming forward and bowing to Master Chang and Madam Chang, which startled them both.
Master Chang Manor has been dealing with the royal family for many years. Although people in the martial arts world don’t care so much about the so-called rules, they also know what they can and cannot do.
As people from the underworld and elders, they could choose not to bow to the princess, but they wanted the princess to bow to them in return. Not to mention that they were not married yet and she was not a real daughter-in-law.
Even after getting married, the ceremony is performed according to common etiquette, and there is no rule of kneeling.
After all, there is a difference between the ruler and his subjects, and this is not something that can be ignored by those who claim to be people of the world.
Therefore, Lin Chunhuan's action frightened the couple. The owner of Chang Manor jumped to the side and did not accept the greeting. Mrs. Chang was even more swift and stepped forward to grab Lin Chunhuan's hand, not forgetting to slightly turn her body to the side and ask, "What are you doing, Princess?"
"You are a princess, you must not kneel!"
"If you want to kneel, I will definitely treat you to tea on the day you marry Huai Jin!" Mrs. Chang said a few words and helped Lin Chunhuan up. There was more heartache in her eyes when she looked at her, "Good girl, you have been wronged."
"To have such kind parents-in-law, Fu An is not wronged."
In the interval of speaking, Lin Chunhuan turned his gaze slightly and looked at Chang Huaijin beside him, but the other party lowered his head and stared at his toes, wondering what he was thinking.
"Okay, okay!" Mrs. Chang smiled so hard that the wrinkles on her face deepened a little, but it couldn't hide the brightness that emanated from her. "We came here this time, not only to see you, but also for an important matter."
"Fu'an, although you and Huaijin haven't officially married yet, you now have the blood of our Chang family. Don't blame me for being rude. In my eyes, you are already a member of my family. In this case, there are some things that mother will say directly."
Lin Chunhun raised her eyes slightly, and straightened her back the moment she met Madam Chang's gaze. She could tell that what Madam Chang was about to say was likely to be extremely important.
As expected, Madam Chang patted the back of her hand and took a deep breath. "I've discussed with your father that your wedding banquet will be held in the princess's mansion this time. We've even prepared everything!"
"I just came to say hello to you today. Tomorrow morning, our Chang family will officially propose marriage!"
Lin Chunhuan was stunned for a moment, obviously not understanding what Mrs. Chang meant. "This... didn't Huai Jin explain it to you clearly? Didn't he already send the betrothal gifts..."
The border soldiers' wintering cannot afford any mistakes. At this time, Lin Chunhuan doesn't care about the interests or whether he can save face.
Since she has made the decision, anything can go wrong, but this batch of winter clothes and food must not go wrong!
"It's clear!"
Fortunately, before Lin Chunhuan could finish her words, Madam Chang had already taken over the conversation with a smile, "Although Huai Jin said that the betrothal gift was winter clothes and food for 300,000 soldiers on the border, there was no need to prepare anything else."
"But you are a princess of the royal family after all. How can you be treated like this?"
Mrs. Chang took a deep breath and said, "Winter clothes must be sent, but your betrothal gifts must also be prepared. You will know tomorrow morning."
"There's only one thing Princess needs to know. Although we at Cangjian Villa are not short of money, affording all the winter clothes, food, and medicinal materials is really a huge expense."
Lin Chunhuan pursed her lips slightly.
She knew this would be the result from the beginning. Of course, if because of this reason, Chang's parents disliked her and gave her some setbacks in the future, she would accept it.
But before she could express her fearlessness in facing death, Madam Chang patted her hand and changed the subject, "So, for your wedding this time, we have to think of a way to prevent those three mountains, four gates, and seventy-two sects from paying the full amount of gifts. That won't work!"
"By the way, Princess, tell me, if Mother uses your reputation as a royal princess as a publicity stunt, would your father, the Emperor, disapprove?"
Lin Chunhuan: “…this.”
"Of course!"
Things went even more smoothly than Lin Chunhuan had expected. The next morning, before she had time to ask anyone to change clothes, she saw Caiyun running in breathlessly, "Father...Father..."
"Catch your breath first before you talk. What nonsense are you talking about, father-in-law?" Lin Chunhuan scolded with a bad smile.
But Caiyun didn't seem to relax at all when she heard that. Instead, she shook her head repeatedly. She finally took a deep breath and said, "It's the Chang family!"
"The Chang family has come to propose marriage! They've completely blocked the roads in front of our princess's mansion. Not only can carriages not pass, but even pedestrians can't get through. Both the east and west streets are completely blocked."
"You hadn't gotten up yet, and the Chang family had instructed us not to disturb your rest, so we waited outside. By that time, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had already arrived and was greeting Master Chang outside."
"Anyway, Princess, please go out and take a look!"
Snap...
The pearl pendant that had just been picked fell to the ground with a crisp sound. Lin Chunhuan blinked and was unable to come back to his senses for a long time.
What kind of scene would it be if the gate of the princess's mansion could be blocked!
Lin Chunhuan didn't have to be curious for too long. The moment the door of the princess's mansion opened, a large black box piled up in front of her.
Jewelry, celadon, jade, silk, satin, incense and fine wine.
Almost all the good things that people can think of can be found in the boxes in front of them, and each item is of extremely high quality. It is the kind of good thing that will cause scramble even in the harem!
It was such good stuff that was piled in front of Lin Chunhuan like cabbage at this moment.
