Ren Yaohua couldn't help but be silent for a moment after hearing this. He sighed and said, "There are so many twists and turns in this house."
Li covered her mouth with a smile, exchanged glances with Madam Zhou, and gently patted Ren Yaohua's hand: "You should learn slowly from Madam Zhou, a little bit every day. In time... you will be almost ready to become a master."
Ren Yaohua hadn't paid much attention to Li's unusual behavior today, but after hearing these words and seeing the expression on her face, she suddenly realized something and couldn't help but blush.
She opened her mouth to ask, but was too embarrassed to ask.
Ren Yaoqi stood quietly by and watched for a while. Li looked up and saw her, and waved at her: "Qi'er, what are you doing standing there? Come here too."
Ren Yaoqi obediently walked over and sat with Ren Yaohua, listening to Nanny Zhou continue with the housework.
Afterwards, Madam Li and Nanny Zhou went out to deal with matters in the courtyard. Ren Yaohua then asked Ren Yaoqi, "Did father mention anything when you were out?"
Ren Yaoqi saw Ren Yaohua's forced expression and knew that she must have guessed something, so she nodded: "Yeah."
Ren Yaohua lowered her head and remained silent for a while, but she couldn't help but ask, "Which family is it?"
Although the words were not direct, Ren Yaoqi still understood what she was asking.
"The Han family. But the elders haven't decided on the candidate yet." Ren Yaoqi said, looking at Ren Yaohua's expression.
Ren Yaohua was stunned again.
Ren Yaoqi stopped talking, and there was a silence between the two sisters.
Finally, after a long time, Ren Yaohua came back to her senses. She also noticed that Ren Yaoqi's expression was a little strange, and she couldn't help but feel thoughtful.
Two days later, the Han family came again, this time with Master Han, Madam Han, and the Han brothers and sisters. Master Han and Master Ren went to the outer courtyard, while Han Yunqian was called in by the eldest young master for tea.
The Ren family knew very well the purpose of the Han family's visit this time, and therefore became more enthusiastic.
The old lady sent someone to ask Li and Ren Yaohua to go to Ronghuayuan. Li quickly sent Ren Yaohua back to dress up.
Ren Yaohua looked at her body and said, "My clothes are suitable for meeting guests."
"This green dress doesn't look lively. You should wear red. The silver-red dress she wore last time, embroidered with silver thread and scattered flowers, was very nice. Go back and change it. The dress is a darker color, and replace the gold hairpins in your hair with the pair of beaded tassels." Li explained everything in detail, but still worried, she said to Nanny Zhou, "You should go and keep an eye on her."
Ren Yaohua glanced at Ren Yaoqi, turned around and went out with Nanny Zhou.
Li also called the maid in the room to help her clean up.
Ren Yaoqi saw Li combing her hair, so she walked over to her and picked out a hairpin for her.
Li patted her head and said, "Your sister and I will go to your grandmother's place. You can just stay in the yard and do your needlework."
Ren Yaoqi nodded and handed the pair of rich and solemn gold filigree longevity peach and katydid hairpins inlaid with jade and coral to Xier, who was combing Li's hair.
After a while, Ren Yaohua came back.
She wore a silver-red double-breasted jacket with silver thread flowers, a silver moon-shaped skirt, a lively double bun on her head, and a tassel hairpin with pearls. She looked pretty and pleasing.
