Transmigrated As A Delicate Bundle Of Luck For A Farming Family

497 Su Hua’s Letter

Su Xiaolu looked at his hurried back. She pondered for a moment and turned to ask Jin Liu, “Is the Crown Prince very tired?”

Jin Liu nodded. “Being the Crown Prince isn’t easy. He’s a little tired, but Master said that he’s adapting very well.”

It was nothing serious. It was just that he had been poisoned a few times and could only sleep for four hours a day. He had suffered a few times in silence.

It was more difficult now, but it would be fine when his own forces were consolidated.

What was difficult was not the external evils or the isolation and helplessness. In the palace, the emperor would not often take action. Because the empress did not believe or like it, she would not help, so Zhou Zhi would suffer.

He wanted to marry Su Xiaoling, so he chose the most difficult path. Even with Su Hua’s help, it would be difficult. At least, it would not be easy for Su Hua for the next year or two.

Jin Liu would not tell Su Xiaolu all of this.

Su Xiaolu did not ask further. She wanted to make more nourishing pills for Zhou Heng when she got home.

Su Xiaolu bought a lot of medicinal herbs. Apart from practicing swordsmanship, she also made medicine every day.

At the end of July, a decree came from the palace.

Su Xiaoling and Zhou Heng’s wedding date was set for the sixth day of December at the end of the year. All kinds of rewards were given.

Su Xiaoling stayed at home and waited to get married. When she was free, she helped Su Xiaolu grind medicine with Chen Erniu.

Su Xiaolu was preparing to make a poultice that could expel fox’s stench, so she had been busy recently.

Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao were also busy. The first batch of sauerkraut and pickles had already been officially launched in Yu Jing Hong. They and Chen Hu’s family were busy in the workshop every day until night before returning to supervise the production of sauerkraut and pickles.

The days passed peacefully.

After Su Hua took office, he was also busy.

Su Chong rushed to the training ground every day to train with Qi Xingfeng and Chu Jin. The martial arts examination was imminent, so Su Chong found a martial arts practitioner who was participating in the martial arts examination to challenge him. He wanted to make a name for himself in the martial arts examination. For this, Chu Jin even teased him if it was to marry his sweetheart in glory.

Chu Jin was spot on. Su Chong wanted to, but it had been so long since the test Chu Jin mentioned and there was no news at all. He was not confident. Because of this, he only felt depressed for two days before he pulled himself together. This was because he had thought it through. Regardless of whether Lin Yaoyao could accept him or not, he was not in the mood to get married at the moment. He only wanted to do what he could do well now.

Zhou Heng needed help. Just Brother Hua alone was not enough. He already had a scholar helping him, but he was still lacking in terms of generals capable of fighting. Su Chong naturally wanted to help, and thinking of General Qi, his goal was even clearer.

After obtaining the qualifications for the martial arts examination, Su Chong wrote a letter to Lin Yaoyao. He actually had correspondence with Lin Yaoyao. Although Lin Yaoyao’s reply was only a few simple sentences, he was very satisfied.

Taking advantage of the night, Su Chong sent the letter out.

—-

Su Chong did not know that the Lin family in Goathorn Town had already acknowledged Su Chong after receiving the letter from the Chu family.

Madam Chen read the letter many times and smiled in relief.

However, after revealing the matter to Lin Yaoyao, she still did not agree.

Madam Chen and Lin Pingsheng could only sigh. During this period of time, the atmosphere at home had been extremely cold.

There was no smile on Lin Yaoyao’s face, nor did Lin Pingsheng. Madam Chen sighed sadly.

Now, everyone in the town knew that Su Hua had become the top scorer. Zhou Heng was the third scorer. There were countless scholars in the town who wanted to be taught by Lin Pingsheng. Many families even wanted to marry Lin Yaoyao. Many scholars even created many chance encounters.

However, the expressions of the Lin father and daughter were ugly.

It was already very late at night, and Lin Pingsheng found it difficult to fall asleep. He got up gently and looked at his wife, who was frowning even when she was asleep. He sighed and took out a letter from the cabinet. Then, he gently put on his coat and went out. He came to his daughter’s room and looked at the weak candlelight. He raised his hand and knocked on the door. He said softly, “Yaoyao, I know you’re not asleep yet. I have something to tell you.”

Lin Yaoyao quickly put away the letter. It was too late to blow out the candle. She stood up and opened the door.

Lin Pingsheng entered the house and walked to the table with Lin Yaoyao.

Lin Yaoyao poured a glass of water for Lin Pingsheng and said coldly, “Father, just say what you want to say.”

Lin Pingsheng looked at Lin Yaoyao. His daughter was delicate and pretty, but she was too cold. It was difficult to get close to her at a glance, let alone guess her thoughts.

Lin Pingsheng did not beat around the bush. He only sighed and said, “Yaoyao, there’s one more thing I haven’t told you. During this period of time, I think you’ve been calm enough and rational enough to make a decision.”

As he spoke, Lin Pingsheng took out the letter and pushed it in front of Lin Yaoyao. He said gently, “This is a letter from Su Hua to me. Take a look.”

Lin Yaoyao frowned slightly, but she still picked up the letter and took it out to read.

It was Su Hua’s handwriting. The contents of the letter shocked Lin Yaoyao.

Lin Yaoyao was silent for a long time after reading it.

She did not expect that the Su family did not know about her parents’ test of Su Chong, but Su Hua already knew. He had said a lot. He saw this matter from his perspective as a younger brother.

Su Chong’s sincerity was true, but if Lin Yaoyao had no will at all, he had a way to make Su Chong give up on this thought.

As long as Lin Yaoyao liked Su Chong, she didn’t have to care about anything that could hinder them. The Su family never cared what others said or thought. It didn’t matter even if Lin Yaoyao couldn’t give birth to any children for Su Chong in the future.

Su Hua had a way to help convince his parents. He wouldn’t watch his brother suffer and be infatuated, so he waited for a response. If he didn’t get a reply after May, he would do things according to Lin Yaoyao’s unintentional feelings for Su Chong.

Lin Yaoyao lowered her eyes and was silent for a long time.

Lin Pingsheng sighed and said, “Su Hua and Su Chong are my favorite disciples. Father and Mother both want you to be happy and live according to your wishes, so Father and Mother have never forced you. A teacher for a day is a father for life. Father can be considered half a father to Su Chong. He has a good life ahead of him and shouldn’t waste half his life for anyone. Su Hua has always been smart. When he said that he had a way, Father believed him.”

“Whether you like him or not is a decision you have to make. Even if Su Chong is willing to use ten years to prove his feelings for you, what’s the point? You’re interested in him, but you’ll only be with him ten years later. It’s a pity to miss the best years for nothing. If you’re not interested in him, you shouldn’t let him miss these ten years. This is unfair to Su Chong.”

“Daughter, make a decision. Even if you do not get along in the future after getting together, you can divorce him and come back. Father and Mother will always welcome you home. Therefore, don’t have any worries. Just look at yourself and how you feel about Su Chong.” Lin Pingsheng said earnestly, then looked at Lin Yaoyao gently and waited for her answer.
