Chapter 307
"My parents have already said to the outside world that before the age of twenty, they will not arrange a marriage for me."

Lin Ruhai was very satisfied when he heard this, he patted Mai Fan on the shoulder, and said to him: "Then you just wait for two more years, even if you pass this subject, the best grade is nothing more than being dismissed." Hanlin."

"The first hurdle for young people to enter the officialdom is to study. It is very good for you to marry later and spend all your energy on reading more books."

"Since you are my student, don't worry about marriage. If you are really single, my daughter is suitable for you..."

Before Lin Ruhai finished speaking, Mai Fan answered excitedly: "Thank you teacher for agreeing! Thank you teacher for entrusting my junior sister to me."

"Master Lin, don't worry, I'm willing to wait for Sister Lin to grow up. When she reaches the right age, you will hand her over to me. I will definitely have no second thoughts."

"Look at my father, there is only my mother."

"Don't look at our Xue family as a merchant, but there is no habit of taking concubines."

"If the teacher marries his beloved daughter to me, I, Xue Pan, promise that we will be a couple for the rest of our lives, and we won't even have a girl by our side."

"This!" Lin Ruhai was stunned. Didn't he say he was dead? The other party has already arranged the marriage?
And isn't it up to the parents to discuss big things like engagement?
Why now let him, a little bastard, scratch Dao Dao down?
Earlier, Lin Ruhai was worried that Mai Fan couldn't wait to run away, but now seeing that Mai Fan had the same thoughts, his eyes turned into a confrontation between father-in-law and son-in-law.

When people look at things from a different angle...

Can looking at a lover be the same as looking at a son-in-law? ?
Lin Ruhai was naturally picky, but at the same time, he was more interested in Mai Fan.After all, this is close to one's own identity.

But in the same way, his explanation of the palace examination is more detailed.

In Lin Ruhai's description, Mai Fan saw the image of a tolerant, intelligent, suspicious but hard-working emperor.

Such an emperor must be pragmatic, and he likes down-to-earth courtiers.

It's okay for him to be clumsy, but if his performance is exaggerated, or if it is empty talk, it will be fatal.

Hearing this, Mai Fan knew what style he should choose and what he should focus on in his articles.

Because the Lin family has just entered Beijing, there are still many things to be dealt with and settled in the family.

After Mai Fan got the answer from Mr. Lin, he left early after only one meal.

After Mai Fan left, Lin Ruhai made arrangements for the family affairs, and when he returned to the inner courtyard, he told his current wife about his plans.

This gentle woman has been by Lin Ruhai's side for three or four years, and she has always been gentle and gentle and abided by her duty.

Although she doesn't appear to be very close to Lin Daiyu, she does her best in terms of her upbringing and food and clothing.

It is also this sense of proportion that makes Lin Daiyu very comfortable when getting along with her. The harmony in the backyard makes Mrs. Lin feel very comfortable. No, the result he and this lady wanted also appeared. .

After hearing Lin Ruhai's thoughts, the new lady thought about her husband's student again.

Suddenly found that it seems to be a very good choice.

In the eyes of outsiders, it is definitely a low marriage for the daughter of a third-rank official to marry the son of a merchant.

But only those closest to them know what kind of marriage is best for their children.

One is that the master’s student is a good student himself. It sounds like it’s a matter of time before he passes the Jinshi department. Grind it out.

The second is that the two families know that they are still members of the same faction. With the relationship as a bond, the connection is a little stronger.

The third is that the Xue family is rich enough. Their Lin family has five generations of princes, and they have never been poor since the previous dynasty.

No matter how rich the dowry is, a lady of gold and jade cannot marry a poor family, unless she is without father and mother, otherwise, she may not be able to live together after marriage.

Only wealthy people raised in the same environment can understand the meaning of using and exchanging flowers.

Fourth, no matter how good Mai Fan is in the officialdom, he needs the help of the Lin family. In less than ten years, he may not be able to escape the influence of the Lin family.

Therefore, Lin Ruhai's stepwife agreed immediately, and took the time to talk to Lin Daiyu, so that she would also be prepared.

If it is possible, from now on, I will touch her indistinctly and let Lin Daiyu look at her. If the eldest girl doesn't like it, it won't be too late for the master to push her back.

Things were arranged so orderly by Lin Ruhai.

When Mai Fan returned home, he said to his father full of information: "You can make arrangements for me. In two years, I will go to my teacher Master Lin's house to propose marriage."

Xue Jue, who was drinking tea with his wife and children in the backyard, squirted the tea out with a puff.

The three people in the room were frightened by Mai Fan's astonishing words and stayed on the spot.

After Mai Fan recounted what he said in the study with Mr. Lin today, the whole family became excited.

Except for Xue Jue who knew a little about Lin Ruhai's thoughts, the whole family was overjoyed.

The same goes for Xue Baochai, she is no longer the self-important girl in the red building who doesn't know anything about foreign affairs.

Over the years, she has watched her brother study hard, and she has also seen how the children outside treat their Xue family.

She also had a lot of thoughts in her heart.

But the news that her brother brought back today made her feel a very secret joy in her heart.

Because if Mr. Lin's guess is correct, and his brother really passed the Jinshi examination, then her identity is the younger sister of the two Jinshi, not the girl of a merchant family.

As for her own marriage, Xue Baochai is now fifteen years old, and it is impossible for the young girl Huaichun to say that she doesn't care.

Everyone became excited because of this news, the entire Xue family is now waiting for the announcement of the imperial court.

This is no longer a process of watching the list.

The governor of Shuntian Prefecture in the capital started the action, and the servants under him reported one by one.

The distance between their Xue family and the government office is not too far, but according to the order, now they hope that the sooner they report, the better.

The first two or three list Jinshi are notified from the back to the front.

Sometimes it’s not necessarily a bad thing that your family hasn’t received yours after the other family’s papers are finished.

Mai Fan is quite calm today, he is still sitting in the study with the homework that Lin Ruhai left for him.
