"Uncle, aunt, you know that I have always been optimistic about the marriage between Big Brother and Sister Li. To be honest, I came here only after Sister Li's approval."

When Lin Acai said this, she looked at the two elders in front of her. The two elders of the Li family were naturally happy to see their daughter have such a destination, and they were happy and satisfied in their hearts.

Mrs. Li, in particular, took Lin Acai's hand and wiped away her tears: "Good child, your efforts and hard work are seen by your uncle and aunt. Sister Li is lucky enough to meet you, which means that God treats her well. She should be content."

Lin Acai felt a little embarrassed by what she said, and quickly brought the conversation back to the point: "Aunt, Uncle, regarding Sister Li's marriage to my eldest brother, if you have any requirements, please let me know. After all, I am young and have little experience, so if there are any shortcomings, you two elders will have to bear with me."

In fact, the matchmaker hired by Lin Acai had come once before, and that time she only brought two boxes of betrothal gifts.

This time, Lin Acai sent over eight boxes.

In Kyoto, this treatment is only available to the relatives of fourth-rank officials.

Although Li Tingye had successfully entered the Hanlin Academy and became the youngest Hanlin scholar in the academy, this was only a few days ago.

Therefore, the two elders in the Li family could see that Lin Acai attached great importance to this marriage, and they were naturally happy for their daughter.

……

Everything went smoothly, and Lin Acai and the two elders from the Li family found an auspicious day for their wedding, which was set on the eighth day of the next month.

……

With this good news, Lin Acai went straight to Yucai Restaurant to find her sister Li.

When Li Caiyu saw Lin Acai coming over, she didn't say anything. She just stood there looking at her with a silly smile. She instantly knew what this girl was up to.

So, after briefly explaining a few things to the shopkeeper, he took Lin Acai to a private room on the second floor and sat down.

"…You have been looking at me with a silly smile since just now. Tell me! What on earth do you want to come to me for? It can't be that your elder brother…"

Before Li Caiyu could finish her words, Lin Acai couldn't hold it in any longer and quickly explained:

"The eighth day of next month is the day you two will get married. From now on... I will have to call you sister-in-law."

Li Caiyu bit her lip and looked at Lin Acai opposite her with a red face. Lin Acai frowned in disbelief. It was the first time she saw Sister Li like this.

"Sister Acai... Fortunately, I listened to you and gave him a chance, which also gave me a chance to be reborn.

...You know what? Even if that man were standing in front of me right now, my heart wouldn’t change much.”

"..."

It seems that I, Lin Acai, made the right bet at that time.

The best way to forget a relationship.

Sure enough, it is about approaching a new relationship.

While Lin Acai was thinking, she didn't expect the person sitting opposite her to stare into her eyes and change the subject:

"Sister Cai, what is your relationship with those people who came to the restaurant a few days ago? Why do they seem so close to you?"

It was just a coincidence that day. She had just returned from a visit to the flower market with her elder brother Lin Shiqing, and ran into a large table of guests in the restaurant who were talking to Lin Acai with their hands and feet.

But after she came back, these people suddenly left.

Looking at the excited eyes of those people when they went out, Li Caiyu felt very suspicious.

I happened to have some free time today, so I mentioned it in front of Lin Acai.

"..."

Lin Acai actually wanted to tell Sister Li her true identity.

But she knew that the time was not right yet, and she didn't want to involve too many people before everything was known.

So I could only reply to Li Caiyu as I had agreed with my brother before:

“…Actually, they are all my former fellow villagers. I intentionally called them together for a get-together.”

Li Caiyu: “…Oh, so that’s how it is.”

To Li Caiyu, these words seemed a bit far-fetched.

But since Sister Acai didn't want to say it, she didn't dare to ask any further.

……

After leaving the restaurant.

Lin Acai sat in the carriage, and the past few years since she traveled here flashed before her eyes like a kaleidoscope.

It was like a dream.

Reaching out to open the car curtain, Lin Acai looked at the extremely real scene outside the window, feeling a mixture of emotions.

"Sister Acai?"

A pair of eyes met hers outside the car window and a cry of surprise was uttered.

Lin Acai pulled her thoughts back and looked at the person clearly, only to find that he was Ji Linchuan who had disappeared for several months.

Now that you have encountered it, you cannot choose to turn a blind eye. Maybe this is God's will.

"Brother Dachuan... What a coincidence, I met you here."

Lin Acai made small talk, trying to ease the awkwardness between the two of them.

"Sister Acai, how are you doing recently? I heard that you and Prince Xiao are married."

At first glance, Ji Linchuan still looked as bookish as before, but this time the look in his eyes was no longer as bright as before, but noticeably dimmer.

"…Yes, Prince Xiao and I are already married. Brother Dachuan…has his family moved to Kyoto now?"

I heard before that Ji Lingchuan and You Chengjing assisted the Jinyiwei in investigating a case of officials embezzling grain and fodder. Now the case has been solved. I heard from my brother that both of them have been highly valued by the emperor and have been given very important official positions.

"A few days ago, the emperor appointed me as the Minister of Rites and I have my own residence, so I brought my family from Xinghua Village here as well."

"Brother Dachuan finally got what he wanted. He was well-read and finally got promoted to a higher position and brought honor to the family. I am really happy for the village head grandfather."

"..."

Got what you wanted?

Ji Linchuan felt heartbroken when he heard these words.

What he wished for was more than just promotion.

In fact, ever since the day he started studying hard, he had been thinking about the scene of marrying the woman in front of him when he passed the imperial examination.

But I didn't expect that Cheng Yaojin would appear halfway.

He actually completely snatched away his sweetheart.

"...Brother Dachuan...I have something to do today, so I won't talk to you for now. Please go back and tell the village head that I will visit him in person someday."

Lin Acai noticed that the man in front of her looked increasingly strange, and she thought something was wrong, so she couldn't continue the conversation.

So he quickly found an excuse and left.

"Okay... I will definitely bring it to Sister Acai. Please go ahead, Acai."

After saying goodbye, Lin Acai hurriedly got into the carriage. As the carriage moved slowly forward, Yu Jie looked back and found that Master Ji was still there watching her daughter leave.

Suddenly I shuddered.

Ever since she followed the girl, Young Master Ji discovered that he was truly deeply in love with her.

It’s a pity that there is only one such good girl in her family.

It can only belong to Prince Xiao.
