Afterwards, Madam Rong asked her some more questions, and was very pleased to learn that she had completely broken free from the Marquis of Weiyuan's mansion.
Looking at her granddaughter's young and beautiful face, she said, "My granddaughter is so beautiful and has such a good temperament. I'll have to ask a matchmaker to find you a good husband another day."
Rong Qingqing: "..."
Her lips twitched, not understanding why the old lady had jumped to a different topic so quickly.
"No need, I think I'm fine as I am."
"Silly girl, you'll be sixteen next year. If you keep wasting your time, you'll become an old maid. Then, you'll only be picked up by others. You don't need to worry about this matter. Your grandmother will take care of it for you. If there's no suitable one, your grandmother won't push you into a fire pit," Old Madam Rong gently advised.
Pressed by her elders to get married, Rong Qingqing felt a bit of a headache. Especially when she thought of Xie Jingrun, she felt that it was best not to let him know about this matter, so she refused and said, "Grandmother, I really don't want to get married right now. I will tell you when I want to get married. At that time, I will definitely ask Grandmother to help me make a decision."
Madam Rong was not the kind of old-fashioned and stubborn elder. Seeing that her granddaughter really had no such plans, she had no choice but to give up.
"Since you don't want to now, then let it be for now. Anyway, your Prince Su will take care of you, so you won't have to worry about not having food to eat."
Rong Qingqing was both amused and exasperated, but deliberately misinterpreted her meaning, saying, "So Grandmother is in such a hurry to marry me off because she doesn't want to raise me."
Madam Rong poked her forehead and chuckled, "Your grandmother is already quite old, and I'm still expecting you to take care of me."
Rong Qingqing hugged her arm and said with a smile, "Grandmother, don't worry. My father only has one daughter, me. With the dowry my mother left me, I will never have to worry about food and clothing in my next life. I will definitely take good care of you, Grandmother."
Madam Rong was all smiles as she was coaxed, and the gloom brought by Rong Yiyi vanished.
While the grandmother and granddaughter were having a pleasant and intimate conversation, Rong Yiyi ran out of the Rong residence.
Looking at the vast street, she felt a sense of loneliness, as if she had nowhere to go.
At that moment, she remembered her follower, Xie Jingyi.
She narrowed her eyes and went to the Marquis of Weiyuan's residence.
The Marquis of Weiyuan's residence.
Since being flogged that day, Xie Jingyi has been bedridden and unable to go anywhere.
But she dared not curse or resent anyone anymore, because Xie Jingxuan had warned her that if she caused any more trouble, or if he heard her cursing Rong Qingqing, he would kick her out of the mansion and disown her as his sister.
This threat is quite serious.
Xie Jingyi felt as if her lifeline had been seized, and she dared not act as willfully as before.
After all, Xie Jingxuan is now in charge of the huge Marquis of Weiyuan's mansion. If she really angers him, she will be kicked out of the mansion and will really be homeless.
During this time, she was bedridden due to her injury, and the frustration in her heart could not be relieved, so she quickly lost weight.
Today, Xue Shaoqian somehow found out about her injury and actually came to visit her with tonics.
Although the two were engaged, they were not yet married. Therefore, before Adan brought Xue Shaoqian into the house, she erected a screen in the middle of the room to block his prying eyes.
After Xue Shaoqian entered, he stood outside the screen and inquired about Xie Jingyi's injuries.
