Chapter 112 Making a Marriage
The old lady of the Lin family has seen everything in the world. Based on her understanding of her grandson and niece, she knows the general idea of the matter without asking.
Facts are one thing, but human feelings are another.
The Song family had sacrificed their reputation and their kinship, so they had no choice but to give in. On the way back, the old lady had figured it out.
After the old lady showed up, Yang calmed down. Reason told her that they couldn't make things awkward, as it would not be good for anyone.
No one cared about Lin Changqing's feelings, or put his feelings first.
After entering the old lady's yard, only a few masters were left in the house, and their trusted old servants were left to guard the gate.
Song Chan had completely turned into a weak little girl at this moment, just wiping tears secretly to gain sympathy.
Mrs. Song said something about Song Chan's side. Yang was afraid that Lin Changqing would get impulsive, so she took over the conversation. She was on an equal footing with Mrs. Song, so they could talk about anything.
"Okay, the matter has been made clear. Chan'er is still an unmarried girl. Even if Chang Qing didn't do it on purpose, she should be given an explanation for this."
After listening to what his grandmother said, Lin Changqing stood up. He was the victim!
Yang hurriedly stood in front of him and said, "Mother, a woman who is married with a formal matchmaker is a wife, and a woman who is married without a matchmaker can only be a concubine."
Mrs. Song was not happy when she heard this. "How can you say that I, the legitimate daughter of a prefect, want to be your concubine?"
Yang sneered, "If you can do it, why can't I say it? Even if he comes to be a concubine, my son will feel wronged. It's good that he doesn't want to do it, so that we can save trouble."
"Aunt, you have to take charge of Chan'er!" Mrs. Song asked the old lady for help.
The old lady was also angry. She didn't love her own grandson, but loved a stranger? But she couldn't say anything angry. "Don't cry. This is not the decision. Sit down and discuss it. This is the attitude to solve the problem."
"Grandma, I don't like my cousin. I don't want her to be my wife or concubine." Lin Changqing said with his neck stiff.
"Shut up, it's all your fault that caused this trouble. Go to the ancestral hall and kneel down as punishment." The old lady yelled at Lin Changqing.
It was a good idea to leave now. Yang took Lin Changqing to apologize to the old lady and pushed him out. As for the punishment of kneeling, it was just for show.
What followed was a game of interests, and Mrs. Song took the opportunity to send Song Chan out as well.
"Madam Song, I asked to take a concubine, but my son said he didn't want to take one. Why do you still want to marry your daughter to me? Aren't you afraid that she will be left alone?"
She hated her daughter for not making progress, and she also hated the Lin family for not being appreciative of her. It was just an empty title. Since she had decided to burn her boats, Mrs. Song could only grit her teeth. "My daughter's reputation has been damaged. If not marrying into your family, where else can she marry?"
"It is impossible to marry in a formal way."
"My daughter will never be a concubine!"
The situation was at a stalemate and no one was willing to give in.
Aunt Feng was standing silently behind the old lady, and no one noticed her presence.
"Old lady, Madam, Madam Song, I apologize for my crime and want to interrupt you."
An aunt interrupted, and the old lady actually nodded, "Don't talk about anything that has nothing to do with this matter. If you have any good ideas, you might as well tell me."
Aunt Feng came out and bowed to the guests before she slowly said, "There's no need to delve into what happened today. In the final analysis, it was Miss Song who was wronged and had to marry into the Marquis's Mansion. It's not appropriate for the Second Young Master to take a concubine before he is engaged as the legitimate son. These two paths are not smooth, and it's hard for the young couple to get along. We are all close relatives, and no one wants to see this situation where both sides suffer. Why don't we try the third path?"
Yang's lips curled up slightly, with a hint of sarcasm, "There is a third way?"
"The two children have no romantic feelings for each other, and have no actual contact, so there is no big obstacle. My son Chang Yuan marrying Miss Song as his wife is the third way. Of course, it depends on the opinions of the old lady, the madam, and Mrs. Song." Aunt Feng said with a smile, and silently retreated behind the old lady, as if she had just come up with an ordinary idea and the result had nothing to do with her.
Yang had a strong personality, so the old lady naturally liked to have this gentle and kind concubine serving her, and was willing to satisfy her as long as it was not excessive.
Lin Changyuan is eighteen years old and has reached the age for engagement, but Lin Changqing, as his elder brother, has not yet settled down, so naturally it is not his turn.
"Chang Yuan is already a scholar, so it will be no problem for him to pass the next imperial examination. Wenqing can consider it." The old lady looked at Mrs. Song, and it would be fine as long as she agreed.
After the old lady spoke, Yang remained silent. Feng's plan was very good. This was a perfect opportunity for them and their son.
If Song Chan was not so outrageous and Lin Changqing hated her so much, Yang would have approved of the Song family's marriage. Now she just wanted to get rid of this unlucky person, and she didn't care much about the mother and son. She couldn't stop it, because Lin Zhi would definitely like to see this situation.
Although Lin Changqing is a legitimate son, he has no achievements and his future is really limited. Although Lin Changyuan is a concubine's son, he is ambitious and has the support of his Yue family. He will have a bright future and may be able to make plans to inherit the title in the future.
Mrs. Song thought about it and made up her mind, "Parents all over the world are pitiful. For the sake of my own children, what is my face? Let him be a bastard, I just hope they can live in harmony in the future. Marrying a bastard is really wronged for my daughter. Aunt, I just ask you to take care of Chan'er more."
What's embarrassing about that? They are just trying to save face, as if they are the victims and feel wronged.
"Chan'er is a good child, but she needs to control her temper and change it. Being someone's daughter-in-law, it's inevitable that she will suffer some grievances." The older you get, the shrewder you are. The old lady is not given away for nothing.
Mrs. Song looked embarrassed, "Yes, I'm used to being spoiled at home, so I need to be more restrained."
"What happened?" Lin Zhi walked in slowly and calmly.
The old lady looked at her son who came just in time, and then looked at Yang, meaning that she should let Yang speak.
Yang felt tired, so she skipped the process and only talked about the result. Lin Zhi didn't care anyway.
"This is a good thing. We will be even closer relatives." Lin Zhi knew that his wife and cousin were still unhappy, so he didn't say much. This was the best result, and he looked at Feng with gratitude.
Except for Feng, everyone else was not in high spirits. After talking for a few more words, they dispersed.
......
Yang did not return to the yard, but went directly to the ancestral hall to visit Lin Changqing who had been wronged.
"It's a blessing that I didn't marry you. I can't care about anything else." After all, Song Chan was not her biological daughter-in-law. Yang could see her if she wanted to, or not if she didn't want to.
It would be better if she didn't marry him. Lin Changqing could only take care of the present.
"Who saved me today? Did mother ask?"
"Your aunt's people."
"No wonder an old servant looked familiar. It turned out that my aunt really went to the restaurant. I thought I was seeing things." Lin Changqing didn't think much about it.
