Chapter 386 Another year of Shangyuan Chapter
Lin Jingyou shook his head. "Second brother, you think the appointment is too simple. I think the emperor will give land and farms, and also gold, silver and jewelry."
"Oh, oh, that's fine, that's fine. It's like it suddenly fell from the sky." Lin Jingcheng said, as if in a dream.
"So, my aunt lives in the palace? Will I be able to see her again in the future?" Lin He asked.
"Of course, she probably doesn't know you're here, otherwise she would be waiting for you here. My current status doesn't make it convenient for me to go directly to the harem to see her, but I'll send someone to give her a message and tell her." Lin Jingyou said.
As expected, the emperor found out the next day after they arrived in Beijing, and rewarded Lin Jingcheng with a lot of gold, silver, jewelry and other things.
Shen Wanning also heard that the Lin family was coming to the capital, and she couldn't wait to meet them and tell them about life in the palace.
Seeing that Shen Wanning was not unfamiliar with them even after becoming a princess, the Lin family relaxed.
In addition, Shen Wanning also told Lin He that the emperor and the prince had given her many manors and shops, and she would pick out two of them and let Lin He open Qianweilou and Mingyuelou in the capital.
But before that, they had to buy dairy cows and plant some peppers on the farm.
Ever since the Lin family came to the capital, Shen Wanning has been running out of the palace every day, which made the queen extremely jealous. Once, she even went out of the palace in person to pick up Shen Wanning and take her back to the palace to see what the family who saved Shen Wanning looked like.
Fortunately, Aunt Zhang was sociable and had a pleasant conversation with the Queen. The Queen felt much better when she learned that Shen Wanning had not suffered much in the common people.
Finally, by December, the Princess Zhenguo Mansion was completed. At Shen Wanning's strong request, they finally moved into the Princess Zhenguo Mansion before the Chinese New Year.
The emperor sighed, "Since the Princess's Mansion has been built and you are anxious to move out of the palace, I will have the Imperial Observatory calculate a date and set your wedding date as soon as possible!"
"Thank you, father!" Shen Wanning said happily.
"I knew it, girls cannot be kept at home when they grow up. You've only been back for a short time and you're already in a hurry to get married." The emperor said helplessly, shaking his head.
"Even if I get married, it will be in the princess's residence. I can go to the palace to visit my father and mother at any time, so it doesn't count as getting married!" Shen Wanning finally showed some of the cuteness of a little girl.
After the Imperial Astronomical Observatory compared their horoscopes, they calculated a few auspicious dates for the next year and presented them to the Emperor and Empress. The Empress ultimately chose the eighth day of the fifth lunar month, which was neither too hot nor too cold, just right.
Finally, on New Year's Eve, Shen Wanning was required to attend the state banquet because she was a princess. Lin Jingyou was also allowed to attend the state banquet at the palace because he was engaged to her.
Bidding farewell to the old and welcoming the new, the whole world celebrates.
After the banquet, the emperor and empress climbed up the city wall to watch the fireworks together.
Brilliant fireworks bloomed in the sky, making the originally dark sky even more colorful and picturesque. The sound was deafening. Thousands of households were enveloped by the fireworks, and people from all directions couldn't wait to come out to enjoy this magnificent spectacle together.
Under the fireworks, Lin Jingyou held Shen Wanning's hand tightly and whispered in her ear, "May you and I have this day every year."
Unlike modern times, people in ancient times usually spend New Year’s Eve with their families, so there are not many pedestrians on the streets.
The Lantern Festival is the busiest time of the year, with men and women going out to admire the lanterns, exchange gifts, and express their love.
On the Lantern Festival, Shen Wanning had already made an appointment with Lin Jingyou to go out together to enjoy the lanterns.
As for the two boys, Lin Jiang and Lin He, they both said that they had something to do, so they did not go out with Aunt Zhang and the others.
Shen Wanning and Lin Jingyou walked hand in hand through the crowd, with many guards standing by to protect their safety.
This was a request from the Emperor and Empress. They had to let her go out with the secret guards, otherwise they were worried about her wandering around outside so late. Especially during the Lantern Festival, when there were many people outside, they were even more worried about people with bad intentions.
Shen Wanning held a fried skewers in one hand and the sugar-roasted chestnuts that Lin Jingyou had peeled for her in the other. "Third brother, look, aren't those Mingzhu and Xiaojiang? Should we go up and say hello?"
Lin Jingyou shook his head and said, "Let's not go. Xiao Jiang and Ming Zhu's relationship hasn't been finalized yet. If we go there rashly, I'm afraid Ming Zhu will be embarrassed."
"Third brother is right, but they are both not young anymore. Shouldn't we finalize the engagement? I wonder if the Yue family will agree to this marriage!" Speaking of this, Shen Wanning became a little worried again.
"I don't think the Yue family cares about the other party's family background. Moreover, for the Yue family, marrying Miss Yue into a wealthy family is not a good choice. So if they really propose marriage, the possibility should be very high." Lin Jingyou analyzed.
"What third brother said makes sense. It's just right now that my parents, eldest brother and sister-in-law are all in the capital. We might as well let them propose marriage as soon as possible and settle this marriage." Shen Wanning said.
"Okay, I'll mention it to my parents when we get back." Lin Jingyou picked up a handkerchief and wiped her mouth.
"Third brother, after we get married, will our parents stay in the capital?"
Lin Jingyou shook his head. "I'm afraid not. They're not used to life in the capital. If they come and stay here occasionally, it would be a novelty. But they've been dealing with the land all their lives. If they stay at home all the time, they'll probably feel uncomfortable."
"Then I can let my parents go to the farm, and they can do whatever they want with the land over there. I don't want my parents to go back." After saying the last sentence, Shen Wanning lowered her head.
After all, the Lin family was the one who had stayed with her since she came to this era. If they couldn't stay together forever, she would feel a little lost.
Lin Jingyou spoke earnestly and slowly, "Wan Ning, everyone has their own life. Dad and Mom have lived their whole lives in Daqing Village, where they have familiar friends and relatives. If they come to the capital, even with your protection, many noble ladies will still look at them differently. Do you want Dad and Mom to be unhappy?"
Shen Wanning shook her head. "I don't want to. I understand what Third Brother means. It's just like when I was in Daqing Town, I had a very easy and happy life. But after coming to the capital, I have to deal with those ladies. I find it very annoying, but sometimes I have to perfunctorily deal with them."
"I'm glad that Wan Ning understands. If I have time in the future, I will try my best to accompany you back to visit them." Lin Jingyou said, touching her head.
The two went to the river again, followed the crowd, and each released a lotus lantern to pray for blessings.
