(One hundred and twenty-three) Marriage proposal (4)
"It seems that my sister has misunderstood something." The eldest lady looked at the landlady and said quietly, "It's not that I'm being harsh. Mr. Qi is indeed a rare gentleman. It's a pity that my Chu'er doesn't think about that. Although I
You can also discuss this marriage with the master. It's too late for me to be happy about such a good thing. It's a pity that the holy orders are hard to violate. Maybe the landlady doesn't know something. Chu'er has long been appointed by the holy king to enter the palace and choose a concubine.
.”
For a moment, Yalan was speechless. She didn't know what words to use to retort.
Before setting off, Yalan actually didn't understand what Qi Ying said.
Time goes back to before departure. Inside Qi Mansion.
[Yalan, later, you will take Long Ju and some people to the Tang Mansion to propose marriage.]
[Proposing marriage? Young master, have you made up your mind now? This is really a good thing. The third lady will definitely be very happy to hear this.]
As a concubine, Yalan sincerely hopes that Qi Ying can get her wish and marry the woman she truly loves.
[No. Yalan, you misunderstood. You are not proposing marriage to the third lady, but to the second lady. 】
Qi Ying shook her paper fan and reminded.
[Hey? Doesn’t the young master like the third lady? Why is the second lady the person he proposed to marry?]
Yalan had a noncommittal expression. She really didn't understand what kind of medicine was sold in Qi Ying's gourd.
[Just do as I say, and don’t think too much about anything else. Just show the eagerness to be the second lady, and let people know that we humbly want to pray for marriage.]
【Yalan still doesn’t understand.】
[Because a family like the Tang Dynasty that considers itself to be a noble family will definitely not like a businessman like me. Besides, the selection of a concubine is about to happen. Do you think that the eldest lady will marry off her precious daughter? 】
Qi Ying sneered, and there was a depth in her eyes that Yalan couldn't guess. However, the master's words were always correct, and his thoughts were not something she could see through.
Yalan responded and took the servants to the Tang Mansion.
Now that I think about it, everything was as planned by Qi Ying. The Tang Mansion really used the matter of selecting a concubine as an excuse.
So, the master had expected that the marriage would not work out early on, so it would be the same no matter who he chose? No, what would happen if it were the third lady...
Since the purpose is not to get married, then what exactly does Qi Ying want to do?
Seeing that Yalan was speechless, the eldest lady was very proud. Now it's time for her to retreat.
So, the eldest lady kindly spoke again: "It's really not that the Tang Dynasty is deliberately making things difficult, it's just a matter of divine order. If Mr. Qi had done it earlier, my girl wouldn't have to go to the palace and suffer, but she could find a good family to marry."
As she spoke, the eldest lady pretended to wipe away her tears.
The boss lady felt particularly hypocritical.
Chunhua also immediately found out about Qi Ying sending someone to the Tang Mansion to propose marriage. However, it was not her who proposed the marriage, but the second young lady Tang Chu.
When she heard the news, the cup in Tang Wan'er's hand fell to the ground and broke.
"Miss, are you...are you okay?"
"No...it's okay."
Because Chunhua didn't know about her relationship with Qi Ying, Tang Wan'er had to swallow her pain in her heart.
"Oh, it's really good. That Young Master Qi is really good-looking. I'm not a slave. Compared with His Highness Prince Yan, I think Young Master Qi is better. No, no, I'm going to slap you for saying that..."
