Traveled through time and became the darling of the whole family

Ye Qingyin was still in shock as she followed Ling Bingqing to Ling Sichen's study.

"Do you want to chat by yourselves? Or do you want me to be beside you?" Ling Bingqing asked.

Ye Qingyin looked at the study door, not knowing what to do...

"Ayin?" Ling Bingqing looked at Ye Qingyin for a long time without any response.

"Squeak~" The study door was opened.

Ling Sichen heard someone coming outside, but there was no response at the door. Curiosity made him go and open the door. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Ye Qingyin and Ling Bingqing standing there.

"Ms. Ye...Ms. Ye." Ling Sichen stuttered a little.

"Ayin said she had something to tell you, so I brought her here." Ling Bingqing said.

"Please... please come in." Ling Sichen moved to the side, made room, and made a gesture of invitation with his hand.

"Ayin?"

"Ah Qing, I want to talk to Master Ling and the other two about something."

"Okay, then you guys chat, I'll go to the yard over there and drink tea and wait for you."

"Yeah." Ling Bingqing walked over with Zhenzhu.

Ye Qingyin took Xiaoxue into the study.

"Madam, Miss Ye San is here." A maid came forward to report.

"Ayu? Isn't she still sick? Why is she running around?" Jiang Xu said.

"Please come in." Tao Ling said.

"Mother, where is my sister?" Ye Ziyu came in and saw Jiang Xu and Tao Ling sitting in the front hall.

"You're just getting well, and you're running around out here." Jiang Xu scolded.

"I need to find my sister for something urgent." Ye Ziyu was anxious.

"Is there something urgent? Ah Yin went to Bing Qing's place. You can go find her there."

"Yes." Ye Ziyu bowed, "Then I will go find my sister first, and then come to meet Madam Ling later."

"Haha, no need to be polite, go ahead." Tao Ling said with a smile.

"This child is spoiled. Nothing can be discussed until we get back." Jiang Xu said.

"It's okay. There must be something important that's why she's in such a hurry to find A'yin. Let's continue to try this new pastry. It was sent by Zhizhi." Tao Ling took a piece of pastry and handed it to Jiang Xu.

Jiang Xu took the cake and tasted it. "Zhizhi's cooking skills are really good."

"Yes, I love all the cakes she makes. The sweetness is just right."

Ling Bingqing waited in the yard for a while, and suddenly saw Ye Ziyu. She stood up and waved, "Ayu."

"Aqing." Ye Ziyu walked over.

"Are you well? Are you going out so soon?"

"Where's my sister?"

"I'm talking to my brother in the study. What's wrong? Did something happen?" Ling Bingqing saw that Ye Ziyu looked anxious.

Ye Ziyu didn't answer her and walked towards the study. Just as she was about to knock on the door, it opened.

"Ayu?" It was Ye Qingyin who opened the door, with Ling Sichen behind her.

Ye Qingyin came out and held Ye Ziyu's hand, "What's wrong with you? Why did you run out?"

"Have you...finished your talk?" Ye Ziyu asked.

Ye Qingyin glanced at Ling Sichen and nodded, "Yeah."

"Sister, I have something to tell you."

"I just happen to have something to say to Bingqing." Ling Sichen spoke. Ye Ziyu glanced at Ling Sichen and then pulled Ye Qingyin towards the yard.

Ling Sichen returned to his room, and Ling Bingqing followed him in. "Brother, what do you want to tell me? Did Aqing agree?"

"You wait here, and then go find them after they finish talking." Ling Sichen said, then sat down at the desk and ignored Ling Bingqing, unable to hide his smile.

"What?" Ling Bingqing was confused.

*

"Ayu, what's wrong?"

"Sister, are you going to agree to the marriage?"

"The Emperor's marriage is not something we can influence."

"But you don't like Ling Sichen, and Ling Sichen is too weak and not worthy of you. You will meet someone stronger and better in the future."

"Don't talk nonsense." Ye Qingyin covered Ye Ziyu's mouth, "You are still in Ling Mansion now."

"Hmm... Hmm..." Ye Qingyin let go of her hand.

"But sister, you two don't like each other, how are you going to live together for the rest of your life? The emperor is really a fool, he has no moral principles, he said we can have free marriage, but now he wants to grant a marriage." Ye Ziyu said.

Ye Qingyin was silent for two seconds, "Actually, Mr. Ling... likes me." Ye Qingyin whispered the last few words close to Ye Ziyu's ear.

Ye Ziyu was shocked when she heard this, "He...he...his heart."

Seeing that Ye Ziyu was about to speak out loud again, Ye Qingyin reached out and covered Ye Ziyu's mouth.

Ye Ziyu patted Ye Qingyin's hand, "Don't be so loud."

Ye Ziyu nodded, and Ye Qingyin let go, "Are you saying that Ling Sichen likes you?"

Ye Qingyin nodded, "Well, I didn't know originally, but he just expressed his feelings to me."

Ye Ziyu: ??? What? Ling Sichen likes Ye Qingyin? I remember that in the novel I read, Ling Sichen saved a woman on the way to disaster relief, and the two fell in love with each other and got married. Damn (‵o′)凸, the novel I read is really different from this...

Seeing Ye Ziyu standing there in a daze, Ye Qingyin waved her hand in front of Ye Ziyu, "Ayu?"

Ye Ziyu came back to her senses, "So what do you think of him, sister?"

Ye Qingyin thought for a moment, "I can't say I like him for now, but he's a good person. I want to get along with him first. I plan to propose to mother and Madam Ling that our two families make an engagement before the emperor grants the marriage, and then I will get along with Master Ling first. If we don't get along well, we can find a reason to cancel the engagement. This way, it won't be considered as disobeying the emperor's order. Sister, what do you think?"

Ye Ziyu was surprised that in ancient times, as far as she knew, many arrangements were made by parents and matchmakers. It was never said that the two parties would get along well after a marriage was arranged, and then cancel the engagement if it was not suitable. No matter which party proposed to cancel the engagement, it would have some impact on the other party, and the woman was usually the most affected.

"Will mother and Mrs. Ling agree?" Ye Ziyu asked.

"I talked to mother yesterday, and she said I should make the decision myself. I just told Master Ling about this idea, and he said he would follow my opinion," said Ye Qingyin.

"Then let's go talk to Madam Ling together." Ye Ziyu said.

The four of them went to the front hall together.

Tao Ling saw the four people coming together and asked, "How is it?" She looked at Ling Sichen, fearing that her own boy would not live up to her expectations and cause her to not have such a good daughter-in-law for nothing.

"Mrs. Ling." Ye Qingyin bowed. "Regarding this arranged marriage, I have an idea. Please listen to it before making a decision."

Ye Qingyin told Tao Ling her idea, "Ayin is smart, this is a good idea. Don't worry, Ayin, if you don't want to fulfill the engagement in the future, just tell me directly and you can find a reason to cancel it." Tao Ling smiled. Ye Qingyin proposed this method, which proved that her son still had a chance.

"Then I'll have my master come to propose marriage some other day, and then we'll finalize the marriage." Tao Ling said, "Ayin, get along well with this brat first. If there's anything you don't like, just tell him directly if he does something wrong. If he bullies you, come find me."

Tao Ling really likes Ye Qingyin more and more the more she looks at her.

"Okay, now that we have discussed this, I will go back and tell the master." Jiang Xu said, "Then I will take the two children back first."

"Okay." Tao Ling stood up to see him off. "No need to see me off. We are so familiar with each other."

Tao Ling kicked Ling Sichen, "What are you doing standing here?"

Ling Sichen staggered after being kicked and walked to Jiang Xu, "Madam Ye, I'll take you there."

Ye Qingyin was amused by Ling Sichen's expression, and followed Jiang Xu with Ye Ziyu.

After the three of them got on the carriage and left, "What did Ayin say to your brother?" Tao Ling asked curiously.

Ling Bingqing spread her hands and said, "I don't know either. Ah Yin said she wanted to talk to me alone, so I didn't go in."

"You little brat, I'm telling you, treat Ah Yin well. If you dare to bully her, I'll beat you to death. But don't lose my future daughter-in-law."

"I know, I know. I will definitely treat her well."

"You should learn some martial arts from your sister, otherwise how are you going to protect Ah Yin in the future?"

"Ayin is very strong and she knows martial arts." Ling Sichen said.

Tao Ling slapped Ling Sichen on the back, "Mom, why did you hit me?"

"You kid, do you still expect Ah Yin to protect you in the future? Do you have any shame? You are a man."

"I know, I know. I'll learn it."

"You, take good care of your brother. I don't ask him to be very powerful, but at least he can protect you." Tao Ling said to Ling Bingqing.

"I understand, mother. I will train my brother well." Ling Bingqing said with a smile and looked at Ling Sichen.

Ling Sichen felt that something was wrong from Ling Bingqing's expression.
