Chapter 546, Xiaotongfang with the ball 24
After Magistrate Lin finished asking, his hands were shaking with anger.
His family is small, and there is only Lin's sister, so naturally the baby is as painful as it is.
However, his family was not rich back then, and when he had to go to Beijing to catch the exam, he couldn't take care of Lin's.
In addition, they had always trusted Li Xiucai, so they left with confidence.
Who would have thought that Li Xiucai looked honest, but in fact he had no opinions of his own at all, he did whatever he said, and he didn't even try to stop his daughter from being sold.
Prefect Lin was so angry that he dealt with these two in private.
On the other hand, Zhou Qin quietly came to the prefect early the next morning, intending to report Lu'er's situation to the prefect Lin.
The prefect Lin interrogated Mrs. Li last night, only to learn that the precious niece actually went to someone else to be a housekeeper.
He was glad that the child was not sold to a brothel.
But he felt sorry for a good child who actually became a low-status roommate.
Just thinking about his niece's suffering made Prefect Lin feel bad for Zhou Qin.
But Zhou Qin was used to doing business, so he was very thick-skinned, and he still talked nicely to prefect Lin.
"It's a surprise for Lu'er to follow me. But since you're back, you should still host the wedding for us. After all, Lu'er only has your natal family at the moment."
These words reached Zhifu Lin's heart.
He originally wanted to take his niece back, raise her for a year first, then add a generous dowry to her, and finally find a good family for her to marry.To make up for the pain she has suffered all these years.
But who would have thought that his poor niece was not only married, but also pregnant.
This made it difficult for prefect Lin.
Seeing that he was still refusing to agree, Zhou Qin had no choice but to kneel down on one knee, clasping his fists and saying, "Master Lin, to be honest, I sent someone to the capital to inquire about you a month ago."
At that time, Zhou Qin didn't know the situation of prefect Lin, nor did he know whether he would win the first prize.
But at that time, he had already decided to give Lu'er a title, so he was looking forward to the Lin family's well-being.
Now that the Lin family really becomes an official, he will give Lu'er and the child a serious status.
Prefect Lin was moved by his sincerity.
He is not an ignorant person, so he can see that Zhou Qin really cares about his niece.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have asked for it early in the morning.
Fortunately, there are not many people who know that Lu'er is a housekeeper, so it can be remedied.
Prefect Lin suggested, "Since you have the sincerity, send Lu'er back at night."
"If you really want to marry her, let your mother bring a dowry to make the engagement. Three matchmakers and six engagements, all of which are indispensable."
Zhou Qin nodded happily, "Okay, junior, let's do it now."
"You and the second elder haven't seen Lu'er for a long time, so it's good to let her stay with you at home. But she is pregnant now, so it's not good to wait too long for getting married."
Although saying this will make the Lin family hate it.
But Zhou Qin was afraid that they would not let them go, so he could only kindly remind them that the marriage should not be delayed.
However, he still made up for it, "Although we need to get married quickly, our two families are close to each other. After we get married, Lu'er can go back to his grandfather's house to live for a while."
After hearing this, Zhifu Lin and the two elders of the Lin family felt happy.
That's right, although the girl is married, there is no rule that a married daughter cannot return to her natal family.
And Zhou Qin, a boy who seems to be quite upright, will come to trouble if he thinks about it.
So the Lin family reluctantly agreed to this marriage.
Zhou Qin told his mother about it when he got home.
Mrs. Zhou also felt miraculous.
Before, she had always wanted to help her son get married as an official, but she did not expect to get married.
And this time it's a senior official.
The more Mrs. Zhou thought about it, the more beautiful she became, and she even began to rejoice that she treated Lu'er well back then.
Although Lu'er is only the cousin of the Lin family, the prefect of Lin only has one biological sister, Lu'er's mother, so this relationship is really close and cannot be kissed any more.
And the magistrate is in charge of all matters of their generation, much better than those little sesame officials.
The more Mrs. Zhou thought about it, the more beautiful she became, so she hurriedly asked someone to prepare the dowry, and happily went to propose marriage the next day.
She specially learned the way of raising marriage from officials and eunuchs.
Including those who are hired by the three media and six hired, they all follow the rules.
The Lin family could see that Mrs. Zhou was upright, so they agreed with a smile.
At night, Zhou Qin wanted to send Shuyan Shangshen back.
Shuyan Shangshen saw that he was reluctant to leave all the way, and said amusedly, "I will go back to live for half a month, we will get married next month, why are you still crying?"
Zhou Qin smiled wryly, "You are a full man who doesn't know how hungry a man is. I think I will sleep with you in my arms every day, and I don't know how sweet your sleep is."
"But today you went to Lin's house, but I have to sleep alone for half a month, how good it is. As a husband, I will definitely not be able to sleep at night for half a month~"
Look at the face of this profiteer, he is used to pretending to be pitiful.
Shuyan Shangshen touched his face and said, "Then you just bear with it, you will always be in a commotion for what you don't get. Then you will miss me more."
What he said made Zhou Qin think wrong.He immediately said with a cheeky smile, "That's done, then I'll bear with you for my husband, and then on the wedding day, my wife will provide for me? Huh?"
Shuyan Shangshen knew that he was thinking wrong, so he went in with a smile without explaining.
When the Lin family saw her coming back, they felt distressed.
"My Lu'er, are you okay? It's your grandmother who made you suffer."
In fact, after the Lin family went to the capital, they wrote letters back.
It's just that those letters were torn up by Li Shi, and Li Xiucai sent back some fake news.
So Lu'er never knew that there was a letter from her grandmother.
Shuyan Shangshen knew that all this was not their fault, so naturally he would not blame them.
Instead, he comforted them and said, "Grandma, please stop crying. Your health is urgent."
"Although Lu'er did suffer in those years, the third master treated me very well. Look at me, I have gained weight and my skin is also very good."
Mrs. Lin saw that her face was rosy, and she really didn't look like she was suffering.
In addition, when he heard about her pregnancy, he asked concerned, "How many months old is the child? Is it harmful?"
"It's been three months. I was a bit sick before, and I couldn't eat anything with a smell. Now it's all good, and it tastes good. I just miss my mother."
After saying this, the second elder of the Lin family felt even more distressed.
"It's our fault that we didn't find out about your mother's illness in time. From now on, this will be your mother's family. In the future, if you marry the Zhou family, you will be the right lady. If the Zhou family dares to bully you, come back and we will give you call the shots."
Shuyan Shangshen nodded and said yes, then snuggled into the arms of old lady Lin, "Thank you grandma~"
After hearing this, Mrs. Lin felt even more distressed.Immediately went to arrange her dowry.
Back then, the Lin family was poor and couldn't afford much dowry for their daughter.
Now that the life of the Lin family is better, they can buy a dowry for their granddaughter.
However, there are many grandchildren in the family, and some must be left for the grandchildren, so the dowry can only be paid by Mrs. Lin.
Zhou Qin thought of this, so he asked someone to bring the dowry over overnight, saying that he wanted the dowry to come out of the Lin family.
When the Lin family saw this, they were immediately overjoyed, thinking that this young man would indeed come to trouble.
