Transmigration into a Book: My Lord, Your Wife Has Taken Another Concubine for You

Upon hearing this, Lin Fuma stepped forward and looked through it as well, and surprisingly agreed with Lin Yanran's words, saying, "You've finally shown some intelligence for once."

Upon hearing this, the eldest princess slapped Lin, the驸马's hand away, saying, "Aren't you annoying? Go play with the children!"

Lin Fuma obediently stood up, looked at his two sons, and said, "Let's go, come with your father to check the children's homework."

Lin Fengyu and Lin Fengsong, who did not want to leave, remained seated.

Since Lin Fuma didn't dare to pull his eldest son, he directly grabbed his second son, Lin Fengsong, and pulled him away.

Lin Fengsong: Sure enough, spoiled brats have no say in their own homes.

After Lin the Prince Consort left, the Princess and her two sisters-in-law spoke very pleasantly, and with Lin Fengyu making tea nearby, the atmosphere was wonderfully harmonious.

Each person provided the information they knew, eliminating the unsuitable candidates, and finally selecting three: two were the eldest sons of noble families who could inherit titles, and the other was the eldest son of the imperial clan.

Lin Yanran personally felt that the member of the imperial clan was too closely related to her niece by blood, and that the relationship had not even gone through three generations.

But in this era that promotes kinship among cousins, she didn't say much.

The main problem is that even though she told the story, no one believed her.

Lin Yanran prayed that her niece, Lin Jiangzhuo, would not choose this member of the imperial clan when she had to choose one of the three.

After finishing their business for the day, the group started chatting casually.

However, Lin Yanran didn't chat with her mother and sister-in-law for long, because Lin Jiangzhuo came in and took her away not long after.

Lin Yanran knew that her niece must have a lot of private things she wanted to tell her, so she obediently let her niece Lin Jiangzhuo pull her away.

Lin Yanran had just sat down in Lin Jiangzhuo's boudoir when Lin Jiangzhuo, sitting opposite her, cupped his face in his hands and asked blankly:

"How did you feel when your aunt was choosing a husband?"

Lin Yanran recalled the original owner's memories and said carefully, "Back then, my aunt was quite love-struck. She wanted to find someone she loved and live a life of one love with one person."

However, despite her romantic nature, my aunt never even considered digging for wild vegetables.

Upon hearing his aunt's words, Lin Jiangzhuo immediately perked up, his eyes filled with curiosity. "Auntie, please tell me more?"

As Lin Yanran recalled, she said, "At that time, there was also a poor student who was the top scorer in the college entrance examination that year among the candidates, but I never thought of choosing him."

As for the princes who were of marriageable age with my aunt at the time, my aunt didn't consider them because she felt they couldn't commit to a lifelong, monogamous relationship.

The later power struggles within the royal family became so intense and brutal that even my aunt felt a lingering fear when she thought about it.

In conclusion, by a twist of fate, it seems that your current uncle is indeed the best choice for your aunt.

Lin Jiangzhuo was simply curious, "But now that your uncle has treated you this way, do you regret it?"

If the original owner of this body were here, she would definitely regret it, regret it so much that she wouldn't want Chu Mochen to see her again.

But Lin Yanran wasn't the original owner of this body; she was only rational. "I was definitely very heartbroken, but I can't really say I regretted it."

If I had chosen to be a prince's wife back then, the grass on my and my child's graves would be growing tall by now.

As for that scholar from a poor family who became the top scholar, he later married a woman from a wealthy family and indeed lived a life of monogamy. However, his wife used her dowry to support the whole family and to help him advance his career.

He seems to have now reached the rank of either a fifth-rank official or a full fifth-rank official. If I had to choose between the wife of a marquis and the wife of a fifth-rank official, I wouldn't choose the wife of a fifth-rank official.

After Lin Yanran finished speaking, she looked at Lin Jiangzhuo, who seemed to be deep in thought after listening to her words, and asked, "Having heard so much, what kind of husband do you want to choose?"

Lin Jiangzhuo had witnessed many tragedies of couples who were destined to be together forever since she was a child. She had no illusions about love and only wanted to live a peaceful and wealthy life until old age.

As for why it's a tragedy, it's because the woman desperately tries to have children so that the man won't take another woman, constantly getting pregnant and giving birth, as if as long as she doesn't die and can give birth, she should give the man as many children as possible.

Another tragedy is like that of the aunt. When she reached middle age, she became independent and openly admitted that she was a womanizer.

"I just want to live a peaceful and wealthy life until old age, but I'm afraid I'll make the wrong choice. What if I do make the wrong choice?" Actually, if she had a choice, Lin Jiangzhuo wouldn't want to get married at all.

But she was already over sixteen years old, and she couldn't refuse to choose a husband or get engaged.

"So what if you made the wrong choice? If the Princess's residence remains favored by the Emperor, it won't matter. But if the Princess's residence declines, then it will test the methods and ruthlessness you've learned over the years."

Lin Yanran felt that one needed either a powerful backer or the ability to succeed on one's own; one had to have one to live the life one envisioned.

After her aunt's words, Lin Jiangzhuo felt much less panicked. She was confident in her father's abilities and also had confidence in her own.

"Auntie, I think you're different from the people Grandma and the others talk about."

As Lin Yanran explained, she inwardly marveled at Lin Jiangzhuo's keen insight. "People have many facets. Being a daughter, a younger sister, and an elder are definitely different."

In different roles, the person portrayed is definitely not the same person.

I am your grandmother and grandfather's daughter.

So I won't use my brain, I'll say whatever I want, and I'll just be a silly daughter. Your grandmother and grandfather won't really do anything to me because of this. That's the confidence your grandmother and grandfather give me.

As for being a younger sister, it requires both closeness and a sense of propriety, which is a bit difficult.

But as elders, they can't teach younger generations as they please.

After all, everyone's circumstances are different, and seemingly similar choices can lead to drastically different outcomes.

Lin Jiangzhuo thought about himself and realized that he did indeed show different personalities in front of different people, and he instantly understood what his aunt was saying.

After having such a pleasant chat with Lin Yanran, Lin Jiangzhuo felt completely relaxed.

Lin Jiangzhuo still felt regretful. If her cousin were two or three years older, she would have gone directly to be her aunt's daughter-in-law.

With the two of them, aunt and niece, working together, who in the entire Marquis's mansion would dare to disobey them? Who could possibly disobey them?

After his younger sister was taken away by his daughter, Lin Fengyu went to find Chu Yunxuan.

Chu Yunxuan was wary when he saw Lin Fengyu, but he still acted quite friendly on the surface.

As soon as his nephew Chu Yunxuan sat down, Lin Fengyu, exuding authority, went straight to the point, "His Majesty seems to be ordering the Crown Prince to marry and enter court immediately. What are your plans?"

"I'm still young. I plan to study at the clan school for a few more years, and then find a job!"

Chu Yunxuan replied very solemnly, but there was no worry about the future in his tone.

Chu Yunxuan wondered if it was possible that after serving as the Minister of Revenue for so many years in his previous life, he couldn't find a sixth-rank position after being reborn.
