Xiao Jingxi coughed lightly: "No, is she married?"
Ren Yaoqi was stunned when he heard this.
Xiao Jingxi quickly said, "I have a subordinate who is the right age for her. If she's not married yet..."
Ren Yaoqi understood immediately after hearing this and couldn't help but laugh: "Why are you meddling in these matters? Besides, Xiangqin is my sister's maid. Even if she wants to get married, it's not my turn to make the decision."
Xiao Jingxi thought for a moment and said awkwardly, "I wonder if the eldest wife of the Lei family can give up her love? Mother still has a few useful maids who can be sent to the Lei family."
"This... I heard my sister say before that she wanted to keep Xiang Qin by her side to be the manager." Ren Yaoqi was also a little embarrassed. Xiao Jingxi usually didn't care about these things, but he asked this even though he knew that Xiang Qin was from the Lei Mansion. That subordinate must be someone he valued or had some connection with him.
"If it really doesn't work, then we can only give up." Xiao Jingxi pulled Ren Yaoqi to sit down beside the bed.
"I wonder who has taken a fancy to Xiang Qin?" Ren Yaoqi asked curiously.
Xiao Jingxi smiled and said, "It's Xiao Shun, Xiao Hua's younger brother, who is in charge of the prison in the palace. You probably haven't seen him."
Ren Yaoqi had met Xiao Hua, who was a member of the Secret Guard. It was said that he had followed Xiao Jingxi since childhood and was his confidant. Since Xiao Shun was Xiao Hua's younger brother, he must have grown up with Xiao Jingxi. No wonder Xiao Jingxi was willing to speak up for him.
"I'll go ask my sister, but if she's reluctant to let him go, there's nothing I can do." Ren Yaoqi thought for a while and said.
Xiao Jingxi came over and kissed Ren Yaoqi on the cheek. He whispered, "Thank you, Madam."
On the second day, Xiangqin did not come to the Yanbei Palace. Ren Yaoqi asked Pingguo to go to the Lei Mansion to meet Ren Yaohua. Unexpectedly, Ren Yaohua came to the Yanbei Palace in the afternoon.
Ren Yaohua wasn't one for small talk. As soon as Ren Yaoqi dismissed the others, she frowned and asked, "Did Xiangqin get into trouble in the palace? Otherwise, how could she be favored by someone?"
Ren Yaoqi: “…”
Ren Yaohua glanced at Ren Yaoqi and said, "Forget it. Call that person over and let me take a look. If she's really suitable, I can marry Xiangqin to your house."
Ren Yaoqi was a little surprised: "Didn't you say before that you wanted to keep her by your side as a steward?"
Ren Yaohua was a little impatient: "I have no shortage of people around me. She must be willing to be with you. Besides, this girl has no other skills, but she is very skilled at using the power of others to bully others. It would be fine if she followed you as a pawn. To put it nicely, your personality is gentle and docile, but to put it bluntly, you are too proud! You can let anyone take advantage of you. Is this reasonable? I think you need a girl who is willing to throw her face aside and make unreasonable demands to help you vent your anger at the critical moment."
Xiangqin told Ren Yaohua about what happened yesterday after she returned home, which infuriated her to no end. After hearing Xiangqin lecture Yan Ningshuang, Ren Yaohua, though perfunctorily lecturing Xiangqin, immediately rewarded her with a gold hairpin. Today, after hearing Ren Yaoqi ask about Pingguo's marriage, she thought it would be a good idea to marry Pingguo to Ren Yaoqi. Ren Yaoqi's maids were indeed composed, but sometimes, those shameless people need to be dealt with by those who are willing to take risks.
Although Ren Yaohua didn't look happy, Ren Yaoqi could tell that she was willing to marry Xiangqin because she was worried about her, and she couldn't help but feel a little warm in her heart. She walked over and took Ren Yaohua's arm, looked at her and smiled, "Thank you, sister."
Ren Yaohua nudged Ren Yaoqi uncomfortably, "What are you doing? Just sit down and get her over here so I can take a look. If she's not up to par, I won't marry her to me."
Ren Yaohua has always been a person who is tough on the outside but soft on the inside. She still has feelings for Xiang Qin. Ren Yaoqi understands this very well, so she feels even more touched.
Ren Yaoqi asked someone to tell Xiao Jingxi to call Xiao Shun to the Yingya Pavilion in front and let Ren Yaohua meet him.
Not long after, Xiao Jingxi returned, and Xiao Shun was also taken to Yingya Pavilion to wait.
