Yao Tingzhi was a little embarrassed to speak, and after hesitating for a moment, she finally said, "Today, our daughter came to the Baili Mansion and disturbed everyone. It also made everyone's dinner unhappy. It was really our daughter's fault. I came here just to apologize to the Duke."
Hearing what Yao Tingzhi said, Baili Yuan's expression eased a little: "It's okay, you came to Baili Mansion to visit relatives, and you didn't do anything inappropriate tonight, so don't worry about what happened at the dinner table."
After saying this, Baili Yuan went away, so he didn't notice Yao Tingzhi's sudden change of expression.
What Yao Tingzhi disliked most were people who were timid and submissive. When Baili Yuan's emotions broke out just now, Yao Tingzhi felt her heartbeat speed up.
Only such a person can be your husband.
The matter of Meng Sangnian caused a lot of controversy some time ago, so Yao Tingzhi naturally knew about it.
Baili Yuan's wife is now dead, and she has been a widow for many years, so she is a perfect match for Baili Yuan.
If I had the old lady's help, I might be able to become the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo.
The Yao family had already sent people to clean up the residence of Yao Tingzhi and Yao Zhixue.
After dinner, the old lady looked tired, and everyone left. Yao Tingzhi and Yao Zhixue walked into the courtyard. Seeing that there was no one around, Yao Zhixue complained, "Dear, this Princess Fengyi is really hard to approach."
"Princess Fengyi is a daughter of heaven. If she were as easy to approach as some other noble ladies, would she still be a princess?" Yao Tingzhi said, "You can see that your aunt is not a useful person. We entered Baili Mansion with her as an excuse. What we will do in the future depends on ourselves."
"My dear, I really can't think of any way to get close to Princess Fengyi." No matter where the noble lady is from, she will always like some new and strange things. Yao Zhixue used to get close to those people with these things.
However, the things that Su Chenyu gave casually were so precious. If I showed them to her, it would be like showing off my skills in front of an expert, which would only make me a laughing stock.
"What are you afraid of?" Yao Tingzhi felt that Yao Zhixue was too concerned about her reputation. "Are you trying to suppress the princess? On weekdays, you flatter her all the time. You shouldn't hit someone who smiles at you. The princess is not an unreasonable person. If you keep doing this, won't you be able to stay by her side?"
"Dear..." Yao Zhixue was unwilling.
"Zhixue, our Yao family has established a relationship with the Baili family, but you have also seen that the Zhenguo family does not like people from our Yao family. It is time for you to get married. Are you willing to marry some small businessmen?"
Yao Zhixue was definitely unwilling and quickly shook her head.
"But if you can marry the princess, it will be different. Even for the princess's sake, your marriage can be discussed a little."
Ever since Yao Zhixue met Baili Yanqing, her heart has been on him.
Especially after seeing how gentle Baili Yanqing was towards Su Chenyu, she even fantasized about the scenes of herself and Baili Yanqing getting along in the future, and they would surely be able to live in harmony.
But she didn't dare to tell Yao Tingzhi about her thoughts. If she were to do so, and she wanted to compete with Su Chenyu for the position of prince consort, Yao Tingzhi would break her legs right away!
"Dear, what you said is true. I understand." Yao Zhixue asked again, "But after what happened tonight, can we still get close to Beiyuan?"
"At this time, we need a stepping stone."
"Stepping stone?" Yao Zhixue was a little puzzled.
There was a knock on the courtyard door, and then Yao's voice rang out: "Sister, I saw that you and Zhixue didn't eat anything tonight, so I brought you some midnight snacks."
Yao Tingzhi smiled slightly: "Look, isn't the stepping stone here?"
Yao Zhixue understood what he meant: "My father is really smart. My daughter can never compare to him."
