Chapter 50
Chapter 50 - Ranking
The Da Xia Empire didn't impose many restrictions on its brothers. However, single brothers should avoid offending men, as they would eventually get married, and any negative impressions could be harmful.
Eldest Lin knew his brother didn't want to get married, so he was nervous. He quickly kicked the piece of paper into his hands, looking guilty.
His behavior and Yu's actions made He Jia Hao and Xiang Bagui look down on him even more.
Just as Lin Yuxing was about to ask again, his family's Ah Yao ran in, grabbed his hand, and led him out. “Child, you're not married yet, why are you staying in the house with a group of men?”
Lin Yuxing felt helpless. He was sure his dad was hiding something, and from the expressions of the two men, they were clearly unhappy. He feared his honest dad might be deceived.

“Ah Yao, I …” Lin Yuxing began, but Ah Yao interrupted him.
“Quick, follow Ah Yao to cut the pig-cage grass.” Soong Qinghee picked up the basket in the courtyard and dragged his brother out.
Inside, Eldest Lin was full of apology and explained unhappily, “This Yu is straightforward, I'll sign it now.” He then smoothed out the paper, glanced at it symbolically, bit his finger, and pressed it on.
He Jia Hao took the marriage certificate and placed it in his pocket. Once the yamen's seal was on it, it would be official. His Lin Family couldn't trick anyone, so he had to accept this marriage.
“The wedding is set for half a month from now, on the eighteenth of this month,” Xiang Bagui said with a smile. With the weight off his chest, he felt exceptionally good and could prepare for the marriage upon his return.
Eldest Lin was also in a good mood. His Yu had finally found a good person, and he had a clear conscience.
So, when Lin Yuxing returned, he would tell him about the happy event.
Lin Yuxing felt helpless. His dad had gone ahead, making it impossible for him to back out. Moreover, if he did back out, it would be better to take revenge. He didn't believe that a bookworm could beat him.
When others heard that Yu was marrying a scholar, many younger brothers felt jealous and resentful, but they couldn't do anything about it. Who would have thought Yu would be so lucky?
When Lin Lan found out, he became agitated, “Nanna, this uncle is really something. Even with such a good marriage, he wouldn't give it to me. I'm older than Yu after all.” He thought Lin Yuxing would never get married like him, but now, things had turned around, and he had found a good wife.
He had been sick for a while, making his body weaker than before. It was all a sin; how could good meat go bad, his sons and grandchildren couldn't eat it, so he was still sent back to son-in-law with the butler task. Even though son-in-law and the others didn't blame themselves, they felt uncomfortable and became sick from holding in their anger. Hearing Lan's words made them angry.
“Boss, don't you see that Lan is older than Yu? Why did Yu marry first? This scholar should have been one of them,” the old son-in-law walked in with Lin Lan's support and started questioning him.
Soong Qinghee, still fuming from what he heard, retorted bluntly, “Mother-in-law, are you beating up a couple like that? My Yu already has a marriage certificate with this person. Does Lan still want to be a minor wife?”
This little uncle's family really had no shame at all, allowing the old grandma to say such words.
