Chapter 114 Prince Jing
Lin Yuxi looked at the portrait in her hand over and over again, and the doubts in her heart snowballed. She raised her head, confusion and curiosity flashing in her clear eyes, and then she took another maid, Wanyue, and hurriedly walked towards her sister-in-law's main courtyard.
"Sister-in-law, how come this portrait of Prince Jing is here with us?" Lin Yuxi asked impatiently as she entered the room, shaking the portrait gently in her hand, as if she wanted to find the answer from the piece of paper.
The mistress of Rongguo Mansion, Lin Yuxi's sister-in-law, Zhang Yanran, was sorting out the account books. When she heard the words, she looked up and saw the portrait in Lin Yuxi's hand. A flash of understanding flashed in her eyes. She put down the work in her hands, smiled and walked to Lin Yuxi, took the portrait and looked at it carefully.
"Oh, this was sent by Prince Jing himself." Zhang Yanran explained with a hint of joking in her tone, "It seems that our Prince Jing has already caught the eye of our little Yuxi."
Lin Yuxi blushed when she heard this. She glanced at her sister-in-law in a reproachful manner and said, "Sister-in-law, don't talk nonsense. I'm just curious, how could a person of Prince Jing's status think of sending a portrait to us."
Zhang Yanran smiled, took Lin Yuxi's hand, and asked her to sit next to her. "In fact, this is also a kind gesture from Prince Jing. He heard that our family wanted to choose a son-in-law for you, so he took the initiative to send someone to deliver the portrait. He hopes to give you a chance to choose."
Lin Yuxi was stunned. She didn't expect things to be like this. The prince of Jing, a high and mighty figure, would actually take the initiative to send the portrait to the original owner. This made her feel surprised and pity for the original owner.
You have to know that in the plot, the original owner didn't even look at these portraits, but was persuaded by Wanrong and chose Lin Hai.
"But why did he do this?" Lin Yuxi murmured, not knowing what kind of answer she wanted.
Zhang Yanran patted the back of her hand gently and said, "Silly girl, don't you understand? Prince Jing is interested in you. He hopes to give you a chance and give himself a chance. But Prince Jing also said that we should not feel burdened. If you didn't fancy him, he wouldn't bother you."
Lin Yuxi was silent for a while, with a complex emotion in her heart. She had never thought that the Prince of Jing would take the initiative to send a portrait and be willing to be selected by her. This made her feel honored and a little overwhelmed.
"Sister-in-law, I...I don't know what to do." Lin Yuxi said in a low voice, with a trace of confusion on her face.
The sister-in-law held her hand and comforted her softly, "Yuxi, you don't have to worry too much. Although the prince of Jing is of noble status, since he is willing to send you a portrait, he really wants to get to know you. You can take a look at his portrait first, and then get to know his character and talent. If you think it's suitable, you can consider it."
Lin Yuxi nodded, and her heart gradually calmed down. She picked up Shen Minghui's portrait again and looked at it carefully. Shen Minghui in the portrait had a heroic look between his eyebrows and deep eyes, as if he could see into people's hearts.
He had an extraordinary temperament, as if he was born noble and elegant. Lin Yuxi couldn't help but be attracted by his portrait, and a blush appeared on her face at the right time.
"Sister-in-law, I think... I think Prince Jing seems to be very good." Lin Yuxi spoke shyly, her voice barely audible.
Seeing Lin Yuxi's little girl's expression, Zhang Yanran naturally understood what she meant, and a clear smile appeared on her face.
The Prince of Jing is indeed an excellent choice. If his status was not so high, they would be afraid that if Yuxi was wronged in the future, they would not be able to come to his house to complain. Their family would definitely choose this person as the first sister's wife!
So when they received the portrait later, they knew that Prince Jing was also interested in their Yuxi, and that man repeatedly assured them that if it worked out, he would definitely treat Yuxi like a treasure in his palm, and if it didn't work out, he would not bother them and disturb their lives!
Only then will they take advantage of the situation and push people to my little sister!
Now that I see that Yuxi also has a good impression of him, this really can’t be better!
"That's good, Yuxi. You can try to get in touch with him and see if he suits your taste." Zhang Yanran smiled, but her eyes were already gleaming with anticipation.
……
While Lin Yuxi was chatting with her sister-in-law to decide on the candidate for her future husband, Xu Wanrong thought she had won the game and returned to her room early.
She was so excited that her cheeks flushed, and she had already played out various future scenes countless times in her mind. She thought that after her careful persuasion, Lin Yuxi would definitely listen to her advice and choose Lin Hai as her future husband.
In this way, she could naturally follow Lin Yuxi into the Lin family as a dowry maid, and thus realize her secret wish.
Lin Hai, Lin Ruhai, that gentleman with a refined demeanor that reflects the moonlight, whose talent overflows like flowing clouds, and who is deeply in love with Jia Min, a gentle and considerate husband, will become hers in this life!
As for Lin Yuxi, who looks like Jia Min, let her be the housekeeper of their family in this life and watch them live happily together!
However, in order to make her devote more to the family, she was merciful and gave her a daughter! After all, Jia Min only had one Lin Daiyu in her life, right?
In order for her daughter to have a good life in the future, with the support of her parents' family, I believe she will also raise her future sons well, right?
Thinking of this, Xu Wanrong couldn't help laughing. She was really a smart time-traveling girl. She could come up with such a brilliant idea! It was a pity that she could only temporarily suffer and become a maid. But it didn't matter. What was hers would not escape sooner or later!
"System, do you think my plan can succeed this time?" Xu Wanrong asked softly, with anticipation gleaming in her eyes.
The childbearing system was silent for a moment, as if analyzing her plan. Then, a mechanical yet gentle voice sounded in her mind: "Based on the current situation, your plan has a certain chance of success. However, please note that the future is always full of variables, and you need to be prepared to deal with various situations."
Xu Wanrong felt a little uneasy after hearing what the system said. But she quickly cheered herself up and encouraged herself secretly: "It doesn't matter, as long as I work hard, I will succeed! Lin Hai is so outstanding, Lin Yuxi will definitely like him."
In the following days, Xu Wanrong became even busier. She secretly observed Lin Yuxi, asking her indirectly when she would be able to settle down, while continuing to communicate with the child-bearing system to seek more help and advice.
She even began to secretly practice some essential skills for a dowry maid, such as needlework and cooking, in case of emergency.
However, just when Xu Wanrong thought everything was going smoothly according to her plan, a sudden piece of news instantly shattered all her beautiful fantasies. It turned out that Lin Yuxi did not choose Lin Hai as she imagined, but someone else. This news struck Xu Wanrong like a thunderbolt. She could not believe her ears, and could not accept this cruel reality.
"Who are you talking about? Who is the young lady going to get engaged to?"
"The Prince of Jing!" Wanyue looked at Xu Wanrong in confusion. The young lady was going to marry into the royal family and become the prince's consort. When the prince became a prince in the future, their young lady would be the princess of Jing. What a wonderful thing!
Why does Wanrong look like she's about to collapse?
What's going on here?
