Yan Qingxue explained simply, "My younger sister doesn't like to go out and hasn't seen much of the world. She was amazed when she suddenly saw such a big castle."
Anle greeted Yan Linglan with a smile, "Hello, beautiful sister."
Thinking about Qiao Zhishu, Yan Qingxue hesitated, then asked shyly, "Um...didn't your cousin come with you?"
Anle was secretly pleased to hear this. Hey! This girl still cares about her cousin? It seems she really has feelings for him.
“My cousin rarely goes out. Otherwise, I can take you to find him. He’s at my house right now. Perfect timing. Bring your beautiful sister to my house for a visit.”
Xiaoya tensed up upon hearing this. Oh no! If she invited him like this, her young lady might fall for him. She couldn't let him come to her door; she was too busy getting rid of that poor boy to worry about him.
"Well... I guess I won't go."
Our second daughter gets nervous easily around strangers and in unfamiliar environments.
Let's wait until next time.
Yan Qingxue glanced at Xiaoya, who had spoken first and preemptively. Why didn't she take the opportunity to accept? She had already been invited, and she was still rejecting her. She was just planning to take Linglan to see that young master.
She intended to introduce her family to the young man.
After being rejected by Xiaoya, Anle didn't continue the invitation. She just smiled and said, "Then let's wait until next time. Anyway, I often come here. If you want to come over, just come find me. We'll definitely run into each other." Thinking of something, Anle took out an invitation from her small handbag and handed it to Yan Qingxue.
"Beautiful sister, please take this. The Jincheng Commercial Street will be opening in a few days. With this, you can go inside the castle for a visit. You can't get in without this pass."
Yan Qingxue was taken aback, then took the invitation from An Le with a look of ecstatic joy, and asked in surprise, "Huh? We can actually go in? Wasn't it not open to the public?"
Anle smiled and shook her head. "Of course it will be open. This is a commercial street, and it will be used for business in the future, so of course it will be bustling with people."
However, you need a post to get in.
This invitation was also given to me by the government.
Our family moved out of here, but we'll be moving back here to work in the future. The government will naturally send us an invitation.
With this post, you can bring whoever you want to take a look. Just bring this pretty lady along, it'll definitely be a lively scene.
I heard that the government has prepared quite a few surprises in this castle.
However, not just anyone can get in. Only residents here can receive these invitations. Beautiful lady, you'd better keep them safe, because you can't get in without one.
Yan Qingxue nodded excitedly, "I definitely want to come and see what it's like inside. I've wanted to go in for a long time."
Yan Linglan's eyes lit up as well. Although she didn't like going out, she wanted to go in and take a look at a place like this.
"Is it really possible?" Yan Linglan asked cautiously.
Anle nodded with a grin, "Of course you can! Little Beauty Sister will come with you then, and there will definitely be something even more amazing for you."
She had made a wasted trip to Hongcheng, but she had unexpectedly received a referral letter from Jincheng. She planned to bring her mother to visit this place.
Maybe once Mother sees how good this place is, she'll agree to let her associate with that young master.
Upon returning to the manor, Yan Qingxue couldn't wait to rush into Zhao's courtyard. As soon as she entered the hall, she sensed that the atmosphere was somewhat different. A quick glance revealed that her father was also there, and even Yan Linglong, who should have been confined, was present. Yan Qingxue frowned and pursed her lips.
"Wow, it's only been a few days, and they've already been released?"
"Alright, let's not talk about that. Where have you been running around these past few days? I haven't seen you for days, and you don't act like a proper young lady at all." Yan Shanxiang was furious when he saw Yan Qingxue walk in. He was in a dire situation, and she was still in the mood to go out and have fun?
If they had done as he said earlier, they would already be happily married to the He family and have received their engagement invitations.
"Of course I went to take care of business. It's because you said you wanted to arrange a marriage alliance with the He family that I took Linglan to Hongcheng. I originally wanted Linglan to meet the young master of the He family, but we didn't get to see him, so I took Linglan to Jincheng for a trip."
"Oh, right—" Yan Qingxue was about to take out the invitation from her bosom when Yan Shanxing interrupted her.
"You can go crazy all by yourself, but you also have to drag Linglan along?"
Yan Qingxue paused in her act of reaching into her bosom. "Huh? Father, are you being reasonable? Didn't you say before that you wanted Linglan to marry into the He family? And now you're disliking me for helping?" Yan Qingxue was holding back her anger, her face looking rather unpleasant.
How come everything that little bitch Yan Linglong does is right, but everything she does is wrong?
Wasn't she also thinking about the manor? Of course, if she was thinking about the manor, she couldn't ignore Linglan's feelings. What was wrong with her taking Linglan to meet the young master of the He family?
"This idea was Yan Linglong's, right? Why should others have to sacrifice themselves just because she comes up with an idea? If she's so capable, why doesn't she let herself marry into that family?"
"Linglan, let's go. This He family, they still won't marry her off." Yan Qingxue sneered and pulled Yan Linglan out.
Before Yan Linglan could even greet Yan Shanxing and Zhao Shi, she was dragged out.
Seeing Yan Qingxue leave with Yan Linglan, Yan Linglong spoke with a weary expression.
"Father, about this post, why don't we inquire further? See if anyone has another one? We're willing to spend a lot of money to buy a copy."
Zhao took a sip of tea and put down the teacup.
"Is it really necessary to get this invitation? Getting the invitation doesn't really have much to do with doing business over there; it's just a post to visit."
Yan Shanxing sighed.
"Madam's words are rather shallow. Those who can obtain this invitation are all connected with the Jincheng government. Even the He family was able to obtain an invitation, which shows that they have made connections with the Jincheng government."
If the marriage proposal I mentioned earlier is on track, then when Jincheng Commercial Street opens, the He family will naturally be able to take us in with them.
"If the He family introduces us to the government, we can also get a share of the benefits, right?"
