"When the heavy snow stops, we'll go find you a marriage partner."
Yuan's mother said, "It's definitely impossible to talk to a very good family, and there's no need to talk about Cai Junze. However, besides them, it's not like there are no other options."
"Last time, Hongniang introduced us to so many potential matches. Some of them were pretty good, but they couldn't compare to the Yan family or the Prince's Mansion. But compared to our country, they're still pretty good!"
"Yeah, maybe she's a little older... But I don't think it's a big deal... It's normal for a man to marry a woman older than his wife!"
Yuan's mother actually had a candidate in mind.
There was a family in the county town who were quite wealthy. However, the man was a little older and could be Xiao'e's father. He was also married, but his wife died of illness, so they wanted to marry a second wife.
Last time, the man had already taken a fancy to Xiao E, but Xiao E did not agree because she thought the man was too old and she herself did not want to be a second wife.
After going through so many things, Yuan's mother compared in her mind and found that among the families she could choose from, this one had the best conditions and they didn't have any concubines. In this case, it would not be bad to become their second wife!
After all, the treatment is not much different from that of the original wife!
There is no need to worry about the issue of remarriage.
The rest are basically inferior to this one in every aspect...
Either they are not rich enough, or they are ugly, or there are some other problems...
Hearing her mother say this, Yuan Xiao'e knew that her mother wanted to push her to that old man who was almost as old as her father. After a moment of hesitation, she said, "I don't want to marry that old man!"
"How can I be called an old man? I'm only in my thirties!" Yuan's mother corrected.
"Almost forty..." Yuan Xiao'e said in a cold voice.
"She's not even forty!" Yuan's mother said, "Xiao'e, you're not young anymore. Stop being so picky. She's not bad either. If we don't make a move and wait a little longer, I'm afraid she'll marry someone else. By then, you'll have even fewer people to choose from."
"It doesn't matter if it's less. At worst, I won't get married!" Yuan Xiao'e said angrily.
"You kid!" Yuan's mother raised her eyebrows. "Are you still thinking about that Second Young Master? You've tried so many times, but you still can't impress him. Besides, he has such a relationship with Cai Junze, so don't be stupid... There's no possibility between you two!"
Yuan's father also said: "Yes, and besides, he is a royal relative, how can we country folks cling to him? No matter who he chooses, it is impossible for him to choose someone of our background!"
Their daughter's repeated failures have made them see the reality and stop daydreaming.
In the past, they were just hoping for luck, thinking, what if they were noticed?
But, reality is so cold!
A basin of cold water came and woke them up!
But, daughter, you don’t seem to be awake yet?
Yuan Xiao'e was silent, looking very unhappy.
Just then, there was a loud crash outside the house!
The noise was a bit loud!
Yuan's mother and father quickly got up and ran out of the house.
"Ouch! Our tree was broken by the snow!"
Yuan's mother screamed!
There was a tree planted in the Yuan family yard. There was a thick layer of snow on it. One of its large branches was broken by the snow because it could not bear the weight. It fell down with a click.
"This, this is not a good sign..."
Seeing a branch of the tree broken, Yuan's father's face instantly turned bad.
