Chapter 94 Yun Chu is being targeted again 2

Yu Qingci pulled Yun Chu along for a while and then looked back. The little girl kept her head down, and her tightly closed lips and the small part of her flushed face revealed how ashamed and indignant she was at that moment.

Yu Qingci sighed and whispered, "Alright, that's how Third Aunt always talks. Don't take it to heart. Come back to Guanlan Courtyard with me, let's talk."

Upon arriving at Guanlan Pavilion and dismissing the servants, Yu Qingci inquired about the reason. The young girl then recounted the story to her sister-in-law with a sense of grievance.

It turns out that these past few days, whether intentionally or unintentionally, Lu Yun Chu always ran into Yang Qi whenever she appeared in the garden, and every time the two of them met Yang Qi, they would go up to her and pester her for a few words.

As luck would have it, Lu Yun Chu and Lu Yun Chu bumped into each other again on their way back from Song Bai Tang yesterday.

Lu Yun Chu was busy talking to her maid Dong Yue and almost bumped into her without warning. It was only thanks to Dong Yue's quick thinking that she pulled her mistress behind her that they were able to avoid a real collision.

But Yang Qi immediately sat down on the ground, groaning that his legs hurt, implying that they had accidentally bumped into him.

Lu Yun Chu was at a loss and had to ask Dong Yue to call someone over. As soon as Dong Yue left, Yang Qi took the opportunity to try to grab Lu Yun Chu's hand.

Luckily, she dodged quickly and was not touched by him.

Dongyue quickly brought people over and managed to get rid of the person.

The young girl was naturally shy and unwilling to talk about it, so she decided to bring more people with her when she went out in the future to avoid being caught in the same situation again.

Yu Qingci understood and said, "No wonder you brought so many people with you today, it turns out you were on guard against them."

Lu Yunchu nodded. She wasn't stupid. She had run into Yang Qi several times outside, and she could tell that he was doing it on purpose. He was taking advantage of her shyness and reluctance to talk to others.

Lu Yun Chu raised her small face and said in a wronged voice, "Sister-in-law, I didn't mean to hide it from you, I just didn't know how to say it."

If it were just her aunt coming alone today, it wouldn't be so bad, but she brought Yang Qi with her, and her words made it seem like she and Yang Qi were very close, which made her both angry and annoyed.

Dongyue also spoke up, "My young lady is just too shy. I advised her to tell the young mistress or Granny Wang about this, but she doesn't want anyone to know."

Young Master, this is really going too far! And what was Third Aunt saying just now? What are they trying to do?

Yu Qingci sneered inwardly. Did she not know what this mother and son were up to? So she simply pulled Yun Chu away so that Third Aunt could speak directly to the Old Madam.

Yu Qingci opened her lips and said, "If I'm not mistaken, it's probably another person who has come to propose marriage to my mother."

In the main hall of Songbai Hall, Old Madam Ning opened her eyes wide and looked over:

"What did you say? Marry Yun Chu to Qi Ge'er?"

Third Aunt nodded in satisfaction. She was an impatient person by nature, and as soon as the two girls left, she got straight to the point and explained her purpose.

Madam Ning shook her head repeatedly: "How can this be? Yun Chu is still young, and besides, the age difference between the two children is too great."

Since Wei Shi came to talk to her about her nephew last time, with her daughter-in-law and Granny Wang reminding her, she has now thought things through regarding Yun Chu's marriage, so she doesn't even want to refuse.

Third Aunt said dismissively, "It's only a five-year age difference, it's nothing at all. Speaking of which, you watched Qi'er grow up. This child has always been honest and kind, and he's always been very dutiful. If Yun Chu marries into the family, she'll have me, her own aunt, as her mother-in-law. What else do you have to worry about?"

You can put your mind at ease. Isn't it better to marry Yun Chu into my family than to find someone else outside?

Besides, the two children are childhood sweethearts who grew up together. Qi'er will turn nineteen after the New Year, and I've been trying to find him a wife for the past two years, but he kept refusing. Later, he told me that he already had a girl he liked.

Seeing the look of horror on Old Madam Ning's face, Third Aunt simply slapped her thigh and said:

"It's our Yun Chu!"

This time, not only Old Madam Ning, but even Wang Mama, who was serving nearby, couldn't stand it anymore, and she smiled and chimed in:

"Grandma is joking. Such words are not to be spoken lightly. Our Seventh Miss is a proper young lady from a respectable family. She has never been careless in her upbringing. Besides, the Seventh Miss is still young and is in mourning."

The third aunt glared at her displeasedly: "How dare you, an old servant, interrupt when your masters are talking? I didn't say anything bad about Yun Chu. It's just that cousins ​​grew up together and now it's a beautiful story."

A perfect match is right in front of us. If my elder brother were still alive, my sister-in-law would definitely be looking for a good match for Yun Chu by now. Besides, Yun Chu is almost fourteen now and should be engaged. If you ask me, why don't we arrange a marriage for the children and wait until the mourning period is over before they get married?"

Madam Ning shook her head again: "This is absolutely not allowed. Third sister, please go back. Yun Chu is still young and is currently observing mourning. I'm not in a hurry for her marriage. We can talk about it after the mourning period is over."

Third Aunt disagreed: "By the time the mourning period is over, the child will be too old. Girls can't be delayed. Where will you find a good family to choose from then on?"

Madam Ning spoke without any politeness: "There's no need for you to worry about that, Miss."

After saying that, he picked up the teacup in front of him, lowered his head, and began to drink the tea.

Seeing that her sister-in-law clearly didn't want to continue the conversation, the third aunt glanced at her son sitting to the side.

Yang Qi stood up and strode over, saying, "Auntie, I really like my seventh cousin. As long as you agree, I promise to treat her well in the future. You've always been the one who doted on me the most since I was little. I hope you'll dote on me again and grant me and my seventh cousin our wish."

Madam Ning was so angry that she almost dropped her teacup in anger that she never expected Yang Qi to say such a thing.

Not wanting to face her nephew, she turned away and said sternly:

"Shut up! Marriage is a major life event, decided by parents and arranged by matchmakers. How dare you, a junior, speak out like this? You really don't know the rules."

Third Aunt said, "The child was just being cunning. He was afraid that I, as his mother, wouldn't know how to speak properly, so he insisted on coming along. Sister-in-law, please don't be angry. Let's talk this out."

Old Madam Ning had no more desire to say anything to the mother and son. She stood up, waved her hand, and said:

"That's absolutely impossible. You should go back, Auntie. You don't need to worry about Yun Chu's marriage. I will find her another husband after the mourning period is over."

The two sides parted on bad terms, and the third aunt's face showed undisguised anger as she left.

Madam Ning had a somber face and her eyes showed signs of exhaustion.

Granny Wang was also furious at the mother and son's unreasonable behavior. She stepped forward and gently massaged Old Madam Ning's back, comforting her as she said:

"Madam, please don't be angry. Third Aunt is just being delusional. Our Seventh Miss was raised with the care of a golden branch and jade leaf. How could someone from a family like theirs be worthy of her?"

And what does that young master Yang Qi have to offer? Whether it's his talent, character, family background, or appearance, he's mediocre in every way. How could Third Aunt have the nerve to ask him for that?

In my opinion, they're like toads trying to eat swan meat—daydreaming.
