Ren Yaoqi recalled that from Han Yunqian to Qiu Yun to Zeng Yu, she didn't seem to approve of any of the men Ren Yaohua was considering marrying. In fact, she also wanted to ask which deity Ren Yaohua had offended, why couldn't she meet a good one.
"Didn't I tell you before? There are some bad rumors about Zeng Kui in the capital. It's just that he just came to Yanbei, so those rumors didn't spread. I don't dislike him just because he is ugly." Ren Yaoqi explained patiently.
Ren Yaohua seemed to be lost in thought. "That's why I'm wondering what kind of person he is. And why would the Zeng family suddenly propose to me? Logically, I've only seen him once, and I wasn't the only one present at the time. If, as you say, it's simply because I didn't pay much attention to his appearance, that's a ridiculous reason." Ren Yaohua paused. "From what I've seen, my grandfather doesn't seem to be very opposed to this marriage."
Ren Yaoqi thought that since they had already left the Ren family, she would not let Ren Yaohua obey the Ren family's control and marry into the Zeng family no matter what the cost. At worst, both parties would be destroyed. However, Ren Yaoqi did not say this in front of Ren Yaohua, because it would sound a bit treasonous to others.
Because it was still dark when they left, it was not yet noon when the Ren family's carriage arrived in Yunyang City.
After buying this three-courtyard house, Ren Shimin personally arranged the layout of the courtyard. Knowing that the third master Ren was notoriously picky, the steward was also meticulous in tidying up the courtyard, so when Ren Yaoqi and others entered, they saw that the courtyard was already brand new.
The house has three courtyards. Ren Shimin and his wife live in the second courtyard with sisters Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua. Ren Shimin and Li live in the main house of the second courtyard. Ren Yaoqi still lives in the west wing, and Ren Yaohua lives in the east wing.
Ren Yaoying was arranged to live in the small west wing of the third courtyard, while Ren Yihong lived in the side courtyard of the first courtyard of the outer courtyard.
Except for Ren Yaoying, everyone else was very satisfied with the accommodation arrangements made by Nanny Zhou.
Although the third courtyard where Ren Yaoying lived was also a wing room, compared to the sisters Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua who each occupied three rooms in the east and west wings, the back west wing where Ren Yaoying lived had only two rooms. In addition to her, the master, the third courtyard was also occupied by some prominent housekeepers and maids.
When paying respects to Mrs. Li in the evening, Ren Yaoying tactfully expressed her willingness to give up the west wing and live with Ren Yaohua or Ren Yaoqi.
Madam Zhou frowned and said, "Miss Nine, you're willing to squeeze in and put yourself in a difficult position, but Miss Three and Miss Five might not agree. We Miss Three and Miss Five each need a study and a small hall for guests. Since you're a concubine, the expenses should be reduced by half according to the rules, but I still thought of arranging two rooms for you. This is Yunyang City, not Baihe Town. Since we're here, we have to consider the Third Master's face and pick up some rules, so as not to be laughed at by the people in Yunyang City who value rules. Miss Nine, do you think this makes sense?"
Ren Yaoying's face turned pale when she heard this. She glanced at Ren Shimin, but Ren Shimin did not show any displeasure at what Nanny Zhou said. Ren Yaohua and Ren Yaoqi were sitting aside and talking without even looking at her.
Ren Yaoying now understood. This was Yunyang City. Her aunt was not here, and there were no grandparents to suppress Li. This was the world of Li and her daughter. Even a lowly servant like Madam Zhou could insult her.
