After Qiao Zhiyi finished speaking, Miao Cuihua, with tears welling up in her eyes, glared at Qiao Zhiyi fiercely, "You make it sound so nice, but you're not me, how do you know my resentment? If you were born looking like me, could you still stand there and say such things so casually?"

What she despises most are those rich young ladies who are good-looking, from good families, have plenty of money, and live a carefree life.

Why do these rich girls have everything, while she has nothing?

God is so unfair! Even just giving her one of them would be nice.

The blind date ended badly, and Miao Cuihua was practically dragged away by the matchmaker. "Alright, Cuihua, stop talking and let's go."

Grandma Xi had a bit of a headache, so she forcibly pulled Miao Cuihua up and dragged her out.

Miao Cuihua struggled a few times before following Granny Xi. She knew she couldn't make a scene in a place like this. If she did, and people took her to court and it became public knowledge, it wouldn't do her any good.

She was already considered unmarriageable, and hearing this only made her more of a laughingstock, making people think she was desperate to get married.

Seeing that the person had left, Qiao Zhishu breathed a sigh of relief.

Yang shouted at Granny Xi, "I'll call a carriage for you right away." Although the ugly girl had gone a bit too far in what she did at her house, her family couldn't make things look bad. They had said they were sending the girl back, so they had to make sure she left properly.

The unpleasant blind date left Qiao Zhishu feeling quite uncomfortable. She developed a psychological aversion to blind dates. The day after seeing Miao Cuihua off, when she heard Yang mention that there was another girl, Qiao Zhishu's face stiffened and her scalp tingled.

"Mother, why don't we postpone this blind date for now? It's not too urgent."

Yang glared at Qiao Zhishu, who was practicing calligraphy.

"How can I not be anxious? You're already at the age to get married. You don't want to end up like that ugly girl from yesterday, getting too old and having trouble finding a wife, do you?"

If you're at the right age for marriage and still not married, people who don't know you might think there's something wrong with you.

If people criticize you for this, who would dare to meet you again?

This is something that needs to be done quickly. Now that you're married, it's Zhili's turn. If you don't make a move, Zhili will just keep dragging his feet.

How can you not arrange a marriage for the eldest son but busy yourself with the second son first? If I really did that, people who didn't know better would think that I, as the mother, was mistreating you, the eldest son.

If word gets out, what will become of my reputation, Yang Zhaodi? After saying this, Madam Yang took out a portrait. Normally, ordinary families don't have the custom of drawing portraits for their daughters.

But this girl, I heard, is a painter. She painted this portrait of herself specifically to find a husband.

Logically speaking, this girl has a special skill, which sounds pretty good.

But the problem lies precisely in this one skill.

This girl thinks she's superior just because she can draw. She's incredibly arrogant. A girl from a poor family has a lot of picky habits when it comes to choosing a husband.

This girl is not good enough for most families, always feeling that others are not good enough for her. She is particularly proud and aloof, which makes her unable to find a suitable husband. She has been dragging her feet until now, at the age of twenty-two, and still has not found a suitable husband. Because of this, Yang deliberately picked out this girl to annoy her son.

When talking about this girl, Madam Yang had a beaming expression on her face and spread a portrait in her hand on Qiao Zhishu's calligraphy copybook.

"Zhishu, I've really put a lot of thought into this girl for you. I specifically found a pretty girl. I must say, she's really good-looking, and I heard she can also paint."

Look at this portrait, it's a portrait she painted herself. I think she's quite outstanding for an ordinary family like ours. She's pretty, with delicate features, and has a dignified appearance that makes people feel comfortable.

I've heard she's quite aloof, completely different from the Miao girl I met before. Why don't you meet her and see for yourself?

Qiao Zhishu glanced at the portrait, her gaze indifferent and expressionless.

"Mother, you can handle this as you see fit." Although that's what she said, she was extremely resistant to it.

He didn't know if it was because of the influence of the Miao girl he met for the first time, or something else, but he always felt a little uncomfortable.

"Okay, since you've said so, I'll set the time. We won't be looking at each other at home this time; we'll go out to meet each other."

This girl is from Jincheng; we need to go to Jincheng.

Sigh, this girl is in a hurry to get married. After the natural disaster in Jincheng, this already poor family has been made even worse off.

Because she was another mouth to feed in the family, her sister-in-law ridiculed her quite a bit. I heard that she couldn't stand her sister-in-law's disdain, so she quickly decided to find a man to marry.

The girl is too proud and can't stand her sister-in-law's nagging, so she decided to meet you. Otherwise, how would it be our turn?

That girl is beautiful and can paint; she's like a rich heiress. You'd better treat her well when you meet her, don't be like last time, not saying a word at all.

Qiao Zhishu nodded absentmindedly, moved the portrait aside, and continued practicing her calligraphy.

As her own son, how could Yang not see what he was thinking? Seeing his expression, she knew he was a hundred percent unwilling.

But the more this happened, the happier Yang felt, because this way she could definitely appreciate how good Miss Yan was.

Judging from what Lewazi said, if he can finalize the business deal with Miss Yan's family in a while, he will stay at Miss Yan's house for a few days.

Then, we can have Lewazi deliver some apology gifts, actively build a warm relationship with her, and get along well with her. Then, marrying her won't be a problem.

Le Wazi has already promised her that he will definitely help her to get this marriage done. If she can marry the daughter of the city lord's family, then her Qiao family's ancestral graves will truly be blessed.

She also saw that Miss Yan. Her face was incredibly exquisite. She was truly beautiful, with delicate skin and a tall, curvaceous figure. She was unlike any ordinary girl from a common family.

If I were to marry her, with that shapely bottom, she'd definitely give birth to a big, healthy son.

I just don't know what's wrong with her son. He's so beautiful and adores his daughter, yet he doesn't even like her.

Thinking of this, Yang felt an urge to slap him twice to bring him back to his senses.
