Qian's eyes lit up, then darkened again, "What you said is a good idea, but Mr. Wang is also a third-rank official after all. Will he be willing to marry the daughter of a merchant family?"
Qingrao snorted coldly, with a hint of arrogance flashing in her eyes, "What's wrong with the merchant's daughter? She's not necessarily worse than the princesses from the royal family. Besides, isn't it because no one wants to marry into their family? As long as dad goes there
He said, this will definitely happen."
Qian thought about it and felt that what she said made sense. Looking at her daughter in front of her, she couldn't help but raise a proud smile on her face and said: "That's true. When we Rao'er stands outside, even the princess may not be as good as
Yes. But that girl hasn’t even got haircut yet, can your father agree?"
"Don't worry, dad will definitely agree." Qingrao said with certainty.
She knew very well that Mr. Qing had been hoping to have the opportunity to make friends with powerful people all these years. This was undoubtedly a good opportunity given by God. Moreover, he was marrying a daughter whom he did not even remember. She had to raise him at home.
There is no reason why he would refuse to spend more money to support himself.
"As for the Wang family, the prince has not shown up for so many years. Who knows whether he is ill or paralyzed. Anyway, he is just marrying someone to show up, so what does it matter if he is younger?"
A vicious light flashed in Qian's eyes, and a cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Okay, just listen to Rao'er, I will talk to your father tonight. Humph, after all, she is also the daughter-in-law of an official family, so she can really marry her
, but that girl is better off."
…
On the other side, the old lady returned to Nuanxiangzhai and dismissed the people around her, leaving only Lu Yi, "Tell me, why don't you want to follow the eldest lady?"
As early as when the old lady left her alone, Lu Yi had a vague premonition in her heart. After hearing this, she lowered her head and replied truthfully: "Back to the old lady, in fact, it is the eldest lady who does not want to be a slave."
"Why is this?" The old lady frowned.
Lu Yi was hers after all. She made such arrangements because she wanted to protect the girl, so that those people would be wary and not dare to embarrass her openly.
Why did that girl refuse her kindness?
Knowing what the old lady was thinking, Lu Yi hurriedly explained: "It has nothing to do with the old lady. Maybe the slave's service was not attentive enough!"
But the old lady clearly felt that things were not that simple, and her cloudy eyes couldn't help but look a bit sharp, "Luyi, I watched you grow up, but now you are unwilling to tell the truth to me?"
"I don't dare." Lu Yi was flustered by the sight, and knelt down in front of the old lady with a bang and said: "Maybe, maybe it was my previous attitude towards the eldest lady that made her feel disgusted!"
When the old lady heard this, a hint of gloom flashed in her eyes, "You don't even treat her as a young lady, so it's no wonder those people dare to bully her blatantly. That child must have suffered a lot of grievances and eaten a lot in these years.
bitter."
"I know I was wrong." Lu Yi lowered his head, his voice full of regret.
The old lady's eyes seemed to become cloudier for a moment, and she sighed and said: "I don't blame you entirely. It's because I, as a grandmother, didn't care enough and didn't take good care of her. Get up now!"
"Yes!" Lu Yi stood up from the ground and looked at Mrs. Qing, looking like he was hesitant to speak.
The old lady, who was a little tired, walked to the side and lay down on a chair covered with soft satin. She glanced at her, then closed her eyes and said, "Just say what you want to say!"
