Chapter: 264 Gracious and purpose a marriage
She was a bit timid about Lian Jinrong's
death and did not dare to act for the time being.
Of course, now she felt that all her tricks were
gone.
Fang Shi suddenly said, "Aunt, do you
think we should still marry An Qingran at this time?"
"Huh? You guys want her even after her face
is ruined?"
" This is what I think, although her
appearance is ruined, she is still the Di daughter of the General's Mansion.
She is very smart and capable. If Zhihua marries her, she will definitely help
Zhihua. Besides, being the son-in-law of the General Mansion, our Zhihua's
future will be guaranteed. Not to mention, as they say in
ancient times, a virtuous wife is a beautiful concubine, and this concubine of
Zhihua is very beautiful. If he is still not satisfied, when he becomes
powerful, what kind of girls are not available? Even girls from big families
will contact us, don't you think so, aunt?"
The old lady nodded her head at her words, "
To propose marriage at this time, it seems that you are righteous, I
agree."
Fang Shi was very happy to have the support of
the old lady.
When she returned to the courtyard, she heard the
sound of reading coming out of the west room, and the smile on her face became
even bigger. Her son has been recently working very hard and has been studying
hard. As for Qiao Jie, although she had behaved inappropriately before
and made a mistake, after taking over, she found that she was also someone who
could manage the house and calculate. She took care of the yard very well. And
found that she is still a nostalgic person, during Lian Jinrong's funeral, she
has been busy, her face is really sad, the tears have not dried. So, Fang Shi
also recognized her as her daughter-in-law, and did not reproach her.
Now the young couple are in good spirits and
harmonious, and Fang Shi's current idea is how to send her son to officialdom.
She entered the house and saw her son was
reading, and Qiao Jie was beside him with a fan to fan him.
Seeing her come in, the two immediately stopped
and let her sit.
"Qiao Jie, go to the old lady's place. I
left the handkerchief there just now. Get it back for me."
Qiao Jie responded and went out.
She knew in her heart that this old lady had
something to say to her son, so avoiding her.
She took the handkerchief and came back. The old
lady had already left, and only Shen Zhihua was left in a daze.
She moved in: "What's
wrong? Is there something difficult?"
Shen Zhihua reached out and pulled her into his
arms: "Mother wants me to marry An Qingran."
Qiao Jie's body stiffened, but didn’t show
it on her face. Instead, she said, "She is the eldest Xiaojie of
the General's Mansion. She is beautiful and capable. It is a good thing to
marry her."
"What? Aren't you afraid that I'll pamper her
and leave you out in the cold when she comes?"
"If it is beneficial to Gongzi’s future,
beneficial to Gongzi’s career, and even more beneficial to the
prosperity of the Shen family. what is the point of deserting me? Besides, I am
originally a concubine, serving you and your wife, how dare I have the thought
of taking exclusive favours?" Sister Qiao said with a smile
Shen Zhihua put a kiss on her face: "You
little mouth, you can talk, it makes people feel comfortable."
"I'm telling the truth, so is the gongzi planning
to go and propose for marriage soon?"
Shen Zhihua sighed: "It's just that now she is
disfigured, As soon I propose she will become a bride. But I only think you are
good. After marrying her, I still pamper you, how?"
Qiao Jie pursed her lips and laughed: "If
Gongzi is saying this, it really tears the concubine down, to serve beside
Gongzi, the concubine is already satisfied, there is no other request."
But Shen Zhihua laughed: "You are saying this,
I am even more heartbroken ...... but that Miss An, before I had the feeling
that her eyes were higher than the top ......"
" Eldest Miss is indeed capable, her medical
skills have even cured the Empress Nianiang's illness, and also kept the
mother and child safe, as well as having the guts ...... to be honest, I think
that there must be not a few families who want to propose marriage with Eldest
Miss, can she really agree with us?"
She used an us word.
Shen Zhihua smirked: "The way she looks now,
if there is still someone who wants to marry her, then I'm really
convinced..."
Qiao Jie but shook her head: "I heard that two
days ago the Dongfang Shizi also sent a gift. I think, Eldest Miss may
not agree."
Shen Zhihua disagreed.
Qiao Jie just smiled and said nothing.
Only then did Shen Zhihua realise that this Qiao
Jie is not an ordinary little girl, she also has unique insights into human
feelings.
Lian Jin Yu did not know why the old lady invited
her to come to the Bei Yuan, she walked to the gate and suddenly remembered Qin
Yaozu. Her heart sank again as she remembered what had happened in this
courtyard. This courtyard had never left her with good memories.
As soon as he entered the room, he saw that Fang
Shi was also here. She froze for a moment.
Everyone bowed to each
other and took their seats.
The old lady is still in the upper position, but
today her face is full of smiles: "Jinyu, why didn't Qingran come with
you?"
"She is in her own yard and doesn't like to
go out and walk around recently." Lian Jinyu smiled bitterly. Her
daughter's injury problem has plagued her all day long and made her very angry.
The old lady asked a few more questions about the
injuries on her face, and Lian Jin Yu answered them one by one, and finally she
sighed: "This child, why did she encounter such a thing? Her yiniang is
also really cruel. Although I should not say bad things about the dead, she has
suffered so much. She is still so young, even though the marriage has not been
set ......"
"Speaking of marriage, I am discussing it with
my aunt. Our Shen family is willing to marry Qing Ran. We also had this
intention before, just afraid that Qing Ran might have been feeling high. Now in
this situation, our Shen family is still willing to marry her, I wonder what
you mean sister-in-law?" Fang Shi's tone carried a sense of ambition.
"Still willing?" Lian Jinyu smiled,
did she mean how gracious the Shen family was?
Fang Shi did not hear the words, but continued:
"Sister-in-law, we are not only willing to marry Qing Ran, we also let her
be the main wife. She will be the main wife, and the Shen family will be her
home in the future. Zhihua's intention is also the same. He will treat her well;
she will not be aggrieved when she comes to our home. Sister-in-law think about
it, is what I said really true?"
Lian Jinyu's anger rose in her heart, no matter
what happened to her daughter, she wouldn't fall to this level.
So she said, "Qin Ran is still young, so
don't be in a hurry."
Fang Shi didn't say anything, but the old lady
spoke up, "You can't say that, she's almost ready for jiji (fifteenth
birthday aka age eligible for marriage), so if it's not decided now, she's
no better than before. Now her face is ruined, so if you can set it, set it
quickly."
Lian Jinyu looked at the old lady, why would she
belittle her granddaughter like this?
In her eyes, if An Qingran loses her appearance,
no one wants it?
Her daughter would rather be raised by herself
than let her be wronged.
"Jingyu, what are you thinking about?
Honestly, I know previously with Qing Ran's looks and talent, to be honest
there is really no worries. Even entering the palace as a concubine is also
possible. But now, she has such an appearance, it would be good to find
someone. And Zhihua is also a talented person, and looks like the official
title will be in hand soon, it is also worthy of her. Don't make the wrong
decision. It is rare for a sister-in-law to propose marriage at this time, and
I think she is sending charcoal in the snow."
