Chapter 289: Hearty Pink
Lin Xiaomi closed her eyes. In fact, she and Taohong had a fairly harmonious relationship, at least after they became rich.
If she has other things, she will help. Third uncle and third aunt are more grateful and understanding than second uncle's family. But, marriage is really not possible!
It is a matter of life and death, but she arranged the couple's marriage at random. If things don't go well, not only will she be blamed by everyone, but she will also ruin Taohong's life.
Taohong is not the type to swallow her anger, if there is a quarrel, she will definitely run to the Marquis's Mansion. She may even have to help her clean up the mess frequently.
Besides, why would a good family marry her? It must be because of the Marquis's Mansion, and they wanted to find support from the Marquis's Mansion, or they had something to ask for.
Isn't this just a joke?
In fact, it would be better for Taohong to find a man with a rich family and an honest character. She felt that although Wanxiu's in-laws were a little difficult and poor, the man was very suitable for her.
When the best of the best meet the best of the best, can life be good?
Lin Xiaomi had a headache and pondered for a while: "Taohong, mother is right. I am in the Marquis' Mansion and cannot leave the inner house unless necessary. In the past few months since I got married, except for going back to my parents' home to buy things a few times, I really haven't left the house once. Tell me, where can I introduce someone to you?"
"I heard that there are many families in the city who want to marry you. How about we meet again?"
Lin Taohong's face fell. She had already rejected him, so why would she still want to meet him?
"Sister Xiaomi, is it really impossible? I trust the one you introduced."
But I don't trust you and the other party! She really doesn't know many people in Fucheng.
"Since ancient times, children's marriages have been decided by their parents and matchmakers. When a woman gets married, it's like she's reborn. How can I, your cousin, decide your lifelong relationship? Besides, I really don't have anyone suitable."
Yang's face was full of disappointment: "How about you ask the prince if there are any unmarried friends among his friends?"
"Third sister-in-law, how do you think that unmarried young masters can fall in love with our Taohong?"
Yang was speechless after being retorted by Wang. Wasn't it because she had no other choice that she wanted to find them?
Xiaomi must have a way. No matter what, Ningzhou Prefecture belongs to her family. How difficult could it be to find a marriage partner?
With Xiaomi around, who would be so blind as to dare to marry her and bully her daughter Taohong?
But, they don’t want to!
Yang was very depressed. Her dream of becoming an old lady was shattered.
"Taohong, I think that when you get married, the most important thing is to find someone who treats you well and whom you like. If you really don't like him, then find someone who treats you well."
Lin Xiaomi said what she really meant. She really wanted her to be well. This cousin was definitely not suitable for a big house. Those people would eat her to the bone.
"Fucheng, is there really no such thing? Sister Xiaomi, can't we be companions and support each other?" Taohong begged.
Support your sister, Lin Xiaomi almost burst into swearing.
I have to find you a family so that you can support each other.
Her cousin is really generous.
"Yes, Xiaomi, no matter what happens, won't there be many cousins present on the day when the prince gets married? Wouldn't it be good to strengthen the relationship between the relatives?" Yang pleaded.
Lin Xiaomi's face turned cold. The mother and daughter didn't understand what she said and refused to listen. She was annoyed by their constant pestering.
"Aunt, most of the people who came to welcome the bride that day were from the capital. After I got married, they went back. As for the relatives in the prefecture, they were all the prince's family.
Third Aunt, except for my father-in-law, all of them are illegitimate children. Excuse me, are you willing to let Taohong marry a illegitimate child?"
Yang really wanted to say that she was willing to give it up. Even though he was a bastard's son, his life was better than that of the landlord's eldest son.
Just as he was about to speak, he was interrupted by Lin Xiaomi.
"Even if you want to, I can't do anything about it. Their marriages are all decided by the old marquis. Even my parents-in-law dare not arrange a marriage for them without grandpa's permission.
Third Aunt, tell me, how should I ask for help to find a husband for Sister Taohong? "
Yang looked pale.
"Even if it's someone else's family, the elders make the decision on marriage, so why would it be my turn?
Besides, Third Aunt also knows that I am still young and just got married. At this age, it would be too frivolous to help someone find a marriage.
Even if I help sister Taohong find a husband, and she doesn't live well in the future, will you blame me or not?"
Yang really wanted to say that with your support, she would not have a bad life.
However, seeing Xiaomi looking at her coldly, she couldn't say the words that were on her lips.
She took it for granted and thought that she treated them differently.
Lin Taohong's eyes were filled with despair. Her dream of being a superior person, ordering servants around and having a bunch of people serving her was shattered.
Looking at the cold Lin Xiaomi, she couldn't help but feel resentful. She had always been close to her and helped her everywhere. Now, she was just unwilling to help with a small favor.
She refused to deal with such a small matter which could be solved by just talking to the prince or the marquis' wife.
So what if he married her for the Marquis's Mansion? They are just using each other.
Even she herself was trying to curry favor with the rich and powerful. She looked down on the man who proposed marriage to her and married the prince instead.
She wanted to marry someone better, what was wrong with that? She and Lin Xiaomi had the same idea, neither of them was more noble than the other!
