The capital is a melon field, I happily eat melons

Chapter 121: Eat One Melon After Another

Bai Xiao told the general everything that had happened recently.

Recently he and his wife have been having conflicts over the marriages of his two daughters.

The general wanted to marry his daughter to his favorite student, but his wife wanted his daughter to find one herself.

This search was quite surprising, as their eldest daughter fell in love with a scholar.

Everyone has been arguing about this matter for several days, and no conclusion has been reached yet.

When Lin Mo heard this, he narrowed his eyes and suddenly felt that this plot was particularly familiar.

[Why do I feel like this is a plot from a novel? A young lady from an official family falls in love with a poor scholar. This plot should be written by Miss Su!]

Bai Xiao: [Miss Su has already started writing, so you don't have to worry about this. Miss Su keeps up with current events, and she is also a good friend of the eldest lady of the Taiwei Mansion. When this matter just started to take shape, she had already started preparing to write the storybook.]

Lin Mo said with emotion: [Amazing! Not only did she get to eat the melon, she also made money. This Miss Su is the most amazing! Su Hanlin really gave birth to a good daughter! ]

Everyone present: ...Just ate another melon, right?

Su Hanlin who was suddenly called out:...How come this is about my daughter again!

Why are there so many twists and turns in this morning's news?

But everyone was very happy and excited to hear it, and the three princes even came over secretly.

The prince unceremoniously pushed aside his two younger brothers and took the best position.

Looking at the resentful eyes of his two younger brothers, he said euphemistically: "As the crown prince, I need to know more things. You have to understand and be considerate of me."

The Second Prince and the Third Prince: ...Brother, do you still remember how serious you used to be?

Lin Mo felt really comfortable lying down and eating melon, and she started to expose her father's shortcomings without any hesitation.

[I think this general should learn from my father. Although my father is quite old-fashioned in public, he is definitely humble in front of my mother.]

[If he made my mother angry, he would go out and buy a gift that day and then write a long love poem. I once caught him writing a love poem. I never thought that he was writing a love poem with such a cold face. I thought he was reviewing official documents.]

Bai Xiao also echoed and said: "I admire your father. He is good-looking and can make people happy. The most important thing is that he is not the kind of person who is nice to everyone. He is only nice to your mother. Such a man is rare!"

[With your father's looks, if he wanted to take a concubine, there would be no telling how many girls your age would come after him. The commander really needs to learn from your father how to make his wife happy. Otherwise, it would be so embarrassing to be kicked out every other day. If he wasn't embarrassed, then the night watchmen would be embarrassed.]

Minister Lin and Grand Marshal: ...We really appreciate your concern for us. Can you please change the subject?

Minister Lin's image over the past few decades has been destroyed today.

In many of his previous appearances, he was portrayed as a fair, strict, and cold-faced genius.

He knew that he was too handsome. People who are too good-looking sometimes have trouble doing things. If you smile every day, people will think you are easy to bully.

This is why Minister Lin has maintained his cold-faced image for so many years, and it has become a habit for him.

He only smiled more in front of his wife, but most of the time he avoided smiling at his children. After all, he still had to maintain a certain dignity in front of his children.

I just didn't expect that all these years of hard work would be ruined now. Can't this bitch just eat other people's melons?

Now everyone is imagining how Minister Lin coaxes his wife.

Tsk! I thought I was going to eat someone else's melon this morning, but I didn't expect to eat Minister Lin's melon. This is really a pleasant surprise!

Lin Mo and Bai Xiao haven't stopped talking this morning.

Bai Xiao even started talking about the scholar.

[In fact, the scholar was a good person, just a little bit obsessed with money, but a gentleman should earn money in a proper way, and he had never done anything bad.]

Lin Mo disagreed and said: [You can't say he's good just because of this, right? To judge a good person, look at the overall picture. Does he respect women? Will he flirt with other women? Does he have any female confidantes? ]

When the general heard the questions asked by Lin Mo, he gave her a thumbs up in his heart.

Right, right! These are the important points! This was the most satisfying sentence he had heard this morning.

Although Mr. Kobayashi's personality is a bit erratic, he is still a good person.

Everyone was paying attention to Bai Xiao's answer.

Bai Xiao investigated carefully and said: [This man respects women, doesn't flirt with women, and doesn't have any female confidantes. The only thing he loves is money. In short, this man is not bad. The most important thing is that he is willing to spend money on the young lady! ]

Lin Mo didn't quite understand this sentence. [What do you mean by this? What do you mean by being willing to spend money on the young lady? ]

Others didn’t understand either. So what if they spent money?

Bai Xiao let out a "tsk" sound, he really felt that Lin Mo was not smart at all.

[Do you know how hard it is to get a miser to spend money on you? Money is life to that scholar. He is willing to spend money on the young lady, which shows that he is sincere to her! ]

[And the scholar is quite talented. As for why he is only a scholar after so many years, it is because he spent all his time making money and did not have time to take the exam. If nothing unexpected happens, he should be able to pass the next imperial examination.]

Lin Mo was speechless. How much does this man love money? He actually refused to be an official just for money.

Emperor Xuande began to doubt his life after hearing this. Is making money more important than taking the imperial examination? Is there anything wrong with this scholar's outlook on life?

Wouldn't it be good to be an official of the Yong Dynasty?

Everyone present was particularly interested in this scholar. It was the first time they had seen someone who loved money so much.

In order to make money, he didn't take exams and even gave up being an official. I don't know how much money he has made now.

Lin Mo asked this question for everyone, [He didn't even take the exam to make money, so how much money has he made over the years? ]

Bai Xiao: [It is definitely not much for you, after all, you are all rich people for generations, but for ordinary people, the money that scholar earns is enough for them to live a worry-free life. If they don't spend lavishly, they can definitely live a stable life.]

Wow! That’s amazing! This is like starting from scratch!

Lin Mo now really admires this scholar.
