Old Lady Ling only had the time to say, "Since that's the case, Ting 'er, you and Third Master Yu can go to Tian' er's place to take a look." After which, the two of them hurriedly served tea and sent the guests off. This matter made the two of them smile for a long time. Old Master Lin Zhan, who was originally gloomy over the matter with Long Xiang, was actually in a good mood.
Chu Ting 'er followed Yu ManTian and was almost jogging the entire way, but she was still a step too late. When they arrived at Ling Tian's courtyard, they saw Yu ManTian pacing back and forth beside a well in the courtyard, mumbling to himself while scratching his head from time to time, as though he was in deep thought.
Ling Tian and Ling Chen sat under the grape trellis, smiling as they watched Third Master Yu wander around the well, with a myriad of expressions on his face. Chu Ting 'er was puzzled. What was so interesting about a mere well? She couldn't help but take a look as well.
Unknowingly, a small stone tablet had been erected beside the well, with the words written on it: Tamago, Third Master Yu, with unrivalled divine skills, dug a well with his body.
Yu ManTian continued to mumble these words to himself, gradually becoming more and more excited. He pointed at the tablet proudly and said to Chu Ting 'er, "Madam, please take a look! This is your son's way of expressing his respect for my unrivalled divine skills, and specially erected this tablet to commemorate me. Actually, it's a little exaggerated. As the saying goes, although it's not accurate, it's not far off. Wahaha … "
Chu Ting 'er's eyes widened to their limits, and the corners of her mouth curled up. Finally, she couldn't hold it in any longer and burst out laughing. Clutching her stomach, she staggered to the grape trellis and supported herself with one hand, sitting down on the bamboo chair with much difficulty. Ling Chen gently patted her back to help her breathe.
It seems like Third Master Yu won't be finished if he doesn't make a mess of the Ling House today!
Of course, Chu Ting 'er knew about the origin of this well! What a joke! A well suddenly appeared in her son's courtyard. As his mother, how could Chu Ting 'er not ask about it? After Chu Ting 'er understood the situation and saw Yu ManTian's complacent expression, she covered her mouth to stifle her laughter to the point that her stomach started to spasm …
Yu ManTian reluctantly walked over from the side of the well. He had decided in his heart that when the people from Tamago came over, he would definitely bring them to see his glorious achievements!
"Kid, what are you thinking? Tell me, I'll make the decision for the two of you. " Yu ManTian said confidently before adding, "You don't have to hold back, just say whatever you want to say. You must be feeling great in your heart, right? Don't be shy, just say it if you're happy! "
Upon hearing this, Chu Ting 'er couldn't help but roll her eyes. She was speechless. From Third Master Yu's tone, it seemed like Ling Tian and Yu BingYan were originally in love with each other. However, it was difficult for something good to happen, and someone was trying to obstruct them.
Taking this opportunity, Chu Ting 'er tactfully said, "Tian' er, the family's intentions are that you can make your own decisions regarding your marriage. No matter who it is, as long as you like her, the family will not interfere with your marriage. As long as you are willing, it's fine. After all, with our family's current status, there is no need for us to make any concessions for the family. "
Ling Tian muttered to himself for a moment before saying solemnly, "BingYan is a good woman, and will also be a good wife. Regardless of whether Tamago comes to propose marriage, BingYan will be one of the women that I, Ling Tian, will acknowledge in my life. This is something that cannot be doubted. However, there is one thing that I need to make clear in front of Third Master Yu. "
When Ling Tian said this, his tone had a seriousness that had never been seen before. Even Yu ManTian could not help but sit up a little straighter.
"Right now, I can only admit that BingYan will definitely be my woman! However, I'm sorry to say that I cannot give her any status right now. "Ling Tian said solemnly.
Ling Tian made this decision because he thought that the reason why Tamago took the initiative to propose marriage was probably because he had his eyes on the position of the first wife of the Ling family, and wanted to slowly encroach on the power of the Ling family. Once he admitted that Yu BingYan was his woman, and even if they were engaged, he would be able to answer to Tamago. On the other hand, if Tamago wanted to use Yu BingYan to seize power, without the position of first wife, he would not be able to create any huge waves. Furthermore, with him keeping an eye on things, no matter what, there should not be any problems.
Of course, rejecting Tamago's proposal would be the most straightforward way, and he would never have to worry about any complications. However, if he did that, on one hand, Ling Tian would not be able to bear it. On the other hand, it would definitely hurt Yu BingYan, and on the other hand, Tamago would definitely make a big fuss about it! If the two families really fell out because of this, that was something that Ling Tian did not wish to see.
"That doesn't matter!" Yu ManTian laughed heartily. "My boss's intention is to fulfill BingYan's wish. As long as she can become your wife, it doesn't matter if it's first wife or second wife. There won't be any problems! " Yu ManTian laughed complacently. "Brat, when you see this Third Master in the future, you have to obediently call me Third Uncle. Do you understand? Wahaha, this is the first time this Third Master is a matchmaker, and everyone is happy! "
Yu ManTian suddenly felt that he was extremely smart. No wonder his boss wanted him to do it personally. He indeed had foresight. If it was anyone else, with Ling Tian's arrogant personality, how could he be so obedient? Hmph hmph, other than me, Third Master Yu, who else would be able to do such a thing?
"Third Master, it's settled," Xue Leng, who had rushed over, whispered into Yu ManTian's ear.
"En, I know, I know. It's very stable now, incomparably stable. " Yu ManTian had misheard the word 'settled' as' stable '. "You guys don't need to be anxious. This Third Master has always been very stable when doing things.
Xue Leng was both angry and anxious. He bent down again and said, "Third Master, it's a token of love exchanged between a man and a woman."
Yu ManTian was stunned. Only then did he react. Touching his body, he found that it was empty. He couldn't help but blush as he shouted, "BingYan, Yan 'er, come out quickly. Third Uncle has something important to ask you. "
Third Master Yu shouted at the top of his lungs for a long time, but there was no sign of his niece. He couldn't help but rub his nose and say, "This lass, hehe, she's actually shy …"
Ling Chen looked at Yu ManTian and could not help but let out a sigh. She thought to herself, Little sister BingYan is really unlucky. Just when she was about to get her wish fulfilled, she had to meet such a clown. Even if there weren't any obstacles in the marriage, it would still leave behind a joke between husband and wife, leaving behind a slightly disharmonious note in this perfect marriage. With Yu BingYan's girlish nature, she would have probably buried herself in her blanket by now. Not to mention not being able to hear Yu ManTian's nonsense, even if she heard it, she would definitely not be willing to come out. Ling Chen stood up and said with a smile, "Third Master, don't be so busy. I'll go look for little sister BingYan."
Chu Ting 'er nodded her head with a smile and took out a white jade box from her bosom. With a solemn expression, she handed it over to Yu ManTian and said, "Third Master Yu, this is the heirloom of our Ling Family. Back then, our ancestor and old madam were a poor couple. When the two of them got married, our ancestor was penniless and could not even afford to buy any accessories! The ancestor had no choice but to untie one of his hair bands and make a heart-linking knot. Later on, when the Ling family flourished, our ancestor wanted to buy a jade pendant for Old Madam as a token of love. However, Old Madam refused! In her entire life, other than this Heart-Linking Knot, she didn't wear any other accessories. The two of them were in love and respected each other. They grew old together and spent the rest of their lives together. On her deathbed, Old Madam was finally willing to untie the Heart-Linking Knot and gave it to her mother-in-law. She also reminded her mother-in-law that in the future, any daughter-in-law of the Ling family must wear a Heart-Linking Knot. This knot has been passed down for generations and there is only one in the world. It will forever be the heirloom of the Ling family! "
Hearing this, even the usually carefree Yu ManTian couldn't help but become serious. Receiving the white jade box, Yu ManTian said loudly, "In-law, don't worry. My Tamago's daughter's family will definitely not be lacking."
Chu Ting 'er nodded her head in consolation. Ling Chen walked over quickly and chuckled, "Little sister BingYan is so embarrassed that she doesn't dare to see anyone. She's hiding under the blanket." As she said that, she flicked her wrist and a piece of jade appeared in Ling Chen's hand. "This is the token of love that little sister BingYan gave me. Young noble, this is really something good."
Ever since Ling Chen took out that piece of jade, Ling Tian had discovered something strange. That was because Yu BingYan's token of love was also a piece of ice jade! Furthermore, the size and shape were almost identical to the one that Shui QianRou had given him! Just what was going on?
Ling Tian was about to take it when Ling Chen retracted her hand and said, "However, little sister BingYan has another condition for this engagement. However, it's not convenient for Chen 'er to pass on this message. Let's wait for little sister BingYan to say it herself."
Everyone was happy in their hearts. They didn't expect that Yu BingYan, such a delicate little beauty who was easily embarrassed, would actually stand out and raise some conditions in the matter of their marriage proposal. This was extremely rare. Everyone couldn't help but turn to look at Yu ManTian and laugh in their hearts. As expected of Third Master Yu's niece.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Yu BingYan, who had always been natural and unrestrained, stepped forward shyly at this moment. Her white jade-like face was blushing like the sunset. Her beautiful head was almost lowered to her chest, and her pair of small hands were kneading her lapel uneasily. It could be seen that Yu BingYan had mustered up a lot of courage to appear at this time.
"Aunt, Third Uncle." Yu BingYan curtsied and finally managed to stop her body from trembling. "At this moment, Yan 'er doesn't have the right to speak. However, there is a matter that Yan' er will feel uneasy if Yan 'er doesn't make it clear. I hope that the two elders will forgive me."
"For this engagement, Yan 'er hopes that the two elders will agree to betroth Yan' er to Tian-ge as his concubine!" Yu BingYan's lips trembled and the redness on her face disappeared.
"Why is that?" Chu Ting 'er stood up in shock. This was the first time in her life that she had seen a girl who clearly had hopes of becoming the first wife. However, she didn't even have the intention to fight for it and instead took the initiative to ask to be someone's concubine! One had to know that the difference between a wife and a concubine was like the difference between heaven and earth! Furthermore, this girl was the only daughter of the number one family in the world! This request was simply too inconceivable!
