Chapter 373 Matchmaking
After Lei Nian'er returned to the East Palace, Yun Guichi lived a peaceful and happy life as usual.
When Aunt Qiu was chatting with her that day, she mentioned the only thing that worried her.
"The third lady is about to give birth, and the first lady doesn't even have a husband. If we delay any further, it will be even harder to find someone."
As soon as he said this, Yun Guichi put his hand on his temples and said worriedly, "Why wouldn't I know?"
"But men of good family backgrounds cannot accept their wives running around outside and hanging out with a bunch of other men."
"It's not easy for Nian'er to climb to her current position. I won't force her to resign just to get her married."
"I feel those with lower family backgrounds are not worthy of her, so after much selection, I finally chose her when she is 20. Now I have accepted her. As long as she likes her, it's fine as long as her family background is clean."
"It really won't work. I accept my poor background as long as I can understand and get along with Nian'er."
Yun Guichi stood up, frowned, and said to Aunt Qiu: "The key is that this child has not opened his mind at all."
Aunt Qiu waved her round fan and smiled, "Marriage is always decided by parents and matchmakers. Even the marriage certificate does not need to be signed by the couple themselves."
She held out a hand and gestured.
"Madam, just marry her off. By then her status will be determined. How can she just do nothing?"
Yun Guichi's brows were still furrowed, and they became even tighter. He waved his hand and said, "You don't understand Nian'er. That girl is not obedient now."
"If you do that, she'll go crazy."
"Besides, I just want her to be happy. I don't think she's a problem and I don't want her to marry anyone."
"What matters is that she likes it."
Aunt Qiu paused for a moment, then said calmly, "As Madam said, the eldest lady still hasn't gotten the hang of it."
"When she truly understands love between a man and a woman, all the good boys have been booked by other families, and we can't compete with others for them, right?"
"If it's too radical to just sign the marriage contract, Madam, you'd better choose a man with good character and family background to get engaged, so that the two children can spend more time together."
"Perhaps the lady will find it good to have a husband and be willing to get married."
Yun Guichi still hesitated and said, "Then there is a high possibility that she doesn't like it..."
Aunt Qiu waved her fan and shook her head, saying, "That's wrong. Madam is still too accommodating to the child. We get married to live together."
"There are a few couples who are together because they truly love each other. Haven't they supported each other well for their entire lives? As for those who love or not, or like or not, they only care about taking concubines."
"Marry a virtuous wife and a beautiful concubine."
"With the Madam's current status, even if her son-in-law dislikes her, he won't dare to do anything. Madam, don't worry."
"And when we choose someone, don't we also keep a close eye on the selection? We must choose someone with good character who will not do anything stupid to mistreat the lady."
Yun Guichi was slowly convinced.
Normal people get married at the age of 16 or 17. Those who are unlucky have to observe mourning for three years before getting married, but their fiancé has already been chosen.
She began to worry about Lei Nian'er's age, so she asked, "Do you have any choice? When choosing a husband for Nian'er, the first thing to do is not to interfere with her work."
Aunt Qiu's eyes lit up, and she sat up straight, with a more sincere smile on her lips.
She said, "Madam, you know that my family is a distant relative of Concubine Qiu. My nephew is not worthy of being the eldest lady."
"But the Qiu family has a child who has just finished the mourning period. It is hard to say whether a woman can get married when she becomes an official now, but he is a child who is willing to accept his wife as an official."
