Before long, Yuan Xue returned with a satisfactory reply.
Yang Yiqian asked, "Grandma, how did things go?"
Yuan Xue said, "I've already thought of a solution. Anyway, outsiders only know that your grandfather has a grandson who is engaged in Butterfly Stone Town. We haven't said that it was you who got engaged. It's just speculation that outsiders say it was you who got engaged. Otherwise, Young Master Ji wouldn't be unaware of this matter now. Your grandfather has so many grandsons, he doesn't necessarily want you to marry into the family, does he?" Yuan Xue didn't have a good impression of her husband's other grandsons.
In the end, Yuan Xue decided to have Shuang'er, the daughter of her husband's third illegitimate son, marry into the Qi family in place of Yang Yiqian.
This third illegitimate son has the aptitude of a second-rank first-class talent. Yuan Xue used to hate this illegitimate son the most because of his excellent talent! Fortunately, this eyesore disappeared more than ten years ago along with his wife, leaving behind only a mentally challenged Shuang'er.
Her husband didn't seem to care much about Shuang'er either, so marrying her off to the Qi family was a good match, wasn't it? Finding a good family for their mentally challenged grandson was a commendable and wonderful thing! Why not do it?
Having made her plans, Yuan Xue went to discuss the marriage exchange with her grandmother.
Yang Yiqian went along with them.
After paying her respects to her grandmother, Yuan Xue immediately explained her purpose.
Unexpectedly, Yang's grandmother did not agree.
Yuan Xue was puzzled. Everything else was working, so why wasn't it working?
Although Grandmother Yang only managed the household affairs, she was not a short-sighted person.
Grandmother Yang said sternly, "Just look at the Qi family. Aren't they easy to manipulate under the power of our Yang family?"
Yuan Xue thought to herself: Does Grandmother think the Qi family is difficult to deal with? The highest cultivation level in the Qi family is only a Spirit General. I wonder what Grandmother has to worry about. She replied, "The Qi family is just a small family. Naturally, the Yang family can control them. Isn't Grandmother overthinking it?"
Grandmother Yang glanced at her and said, "Since you know that the Qi family is nothing but an ant in the eyes of the Yang family, why can't you imagine that the Yang family is also nothing but an ant in the eyes of the Ji family?"
Yuan Xue's heart trembled! Her grandmother's words struck like a thunderbolt, shattering all her illusions. Coming to her senses, Yuan Xue immediately knelt down and said with shame, "It was Yuan Xue who did not think things through. Please punish me, Grandmother."
The grandmother had someone stand up and said, "There's no need for punishment. If Qianqian doesn't like this marriage, a replacement marriage isn't out of the question, but marrying into the Ji family is absolutely unacceptable!"
Grandmother Yang had someone bring paper and pen, wrote a letter, and handed it to Yuan Xue: "Next time you go to the Qi family, give this letter to Yang Yao. She will know what to do."
When Yang Yiqian heard that her grandmother disapproved of her marriage, her fingers immediately twisted into a knot! However, she dared not say anything due to her grandmother's imposing presence, thinking to herself that once she married Ji Qiuhan, she would definitely teach that old woman a lesson! Right now, resolving her marriage with that pig-headed man was the most important thing.
With her grandmother's letter, Yang Yiqian's birth chart, and Shuang'er's birth date and token, Yuan Xue set off again from Qianshi City.
Meanwhile, Qi Zhiheng, far away in Butterfly Stone Town, showed signs of advancing to the next level the day after Yuan Xue and the others left. He immediately went into seclusion to break through to the third level of Qi Refining. Ever since he had advanced by taking a pill last time, his cultivation had progressed much more slowly.
This was a rare occurrence with such a strong indication of advancement, and Qi Zhiheng didn't want to waste the opportunity! He informed his maid and parents before starting his push for advancement.
