Chapter 1063: Chapter 1063: Who’s Getting Married?

Upon hearing her words, Lin Caisang merely narrowed her eyes and said nothing.

Back when Liu Yushui gave birth to the twins, it was her own doing that ruined her health, and at that time, she also didn’t willingly do so much for Liu Yushui.

But now things were different; Liu Yushui had changed for the better.

She thought, if Liu Yushui’s marriage to Lin Dama could truly come to pass, she wouldn’t mind treating Liu Yushui’s health. She couldn’t guarantee anything else, but she believed that with careful nurturing, fertility could be restored.

"These few days, let’s just leave their family be. Let’s not bother with them and act as though nothing happened today," she said earnestly.

...

Days went by, a day at a time, and the Lin Family truly acted as if nothing had happened.

Liu Yushui continued caring for the children and occasionally went to help by the pond. In short, she completely ignored the entire Lin Shanshen family as if they were thin air, not paying them any mind.

After a few days, Lin Shanshen’s wife grew anxious. Seeing that twenty taels—no, fifteen taels—of silver might go down the drain, how could she not worry?

When there wasn’t much work at home, she pulled Lin Shanshen into their room for a secret discussion.

When they emerged, they had reached a consensus. Regarding the dowry, they directly reduced it to ten taels, the very least that was feasible, and decided that both she and Lin Shanshen would personally make a marriage proposal to Lin Laogeng’s family in broad daylight, aiming to settle the matter.

The Lin Shanshen family ’marrying off’ their son, and moreover to Lin Laogeng’s Liu Yushui, was now the biggest oddity in the village.

Many people went to Lin Laogeng’s house to watch the commotion.

In the main hall of Lin Laogeng’s house, Lin Shanshen and his wife, along with Lin Dama and his two daughters, sat there. Unlike the previous visit to Lin Shanshen’s house, they brought nothing.

It wasn’t long before Lin Caiqing brought in some tea, along with some pastries and dried fruits.

Liu Yushui was also called over. The two children had been left in Lin Caisang’s room, sleeping on the bed, with Lin Changyi watching over them, while Liu Yushui was summoned to the main hall as well.

Usually, during marriage negotiations, the woman’s family should not show up, but the current situation was different. Lin Dama intended to marry into the wife’s family, which changed matters.

After a long discussion, the dowry was finally settled, just as Lin Caisang had anticipated—ten taels of silver, with all other items included; it was quite a generous sum.

Lin Laogeng, without any unnecessary words, directly summoned Clan Chief Lin to write down the marriage agreement for both families.

One a widower, and the other having daughters, the marriage was swiftly arranged to perfection. A propitious day in the following month was chosen for the wedding ceremony.

Of course, Zhou Liang had also been visiting frequently these days. When he heard that Liu Yushui was to be married, he broke out in a cold sweat and hastily rushed home to inform his mother.

...

"What?"

Madam Zhou thought she must have misheard.

"Liang, who did you say is getting married?"

"Liu Yushui, who else?" Zhou Liang responded urgently.

If Liu Yushui were to get married, how would he use her to get close to Lin Caisang in the future?

"Mother, please think of something quickly. Liu Yushui can’t marry someone else. Why don’t we go to the Lin Family to propose right now and take Liu Yushui back to our home? Even if only as a concubine, she would surely agree," he said.
