Chapter 157 The Winds Blowing Through the Old Chi Family (1/2)



So after Chen Xiaomai finished speaking, she looked at Huang Dani, who looked troubled, and said:

"Second sister-in-law, the eldest girl in Chijia'ao after Xiaoyu is only five years old, and she is Aqing's junior."

If the other party agrees, I will go and speak to them on your behalf, and ask Mi'er to help hold the umbrella for them.

If you're not willing, then go ask Master Shen's family and see if Miss Ye is willing.

The Shen family is short of money now, so you should make the promises in the red envelope more generous.

If she agrees, given her status as the sister of a scholar, it would be more than enough for her.

In that case, Old Mrs. Wang probably wouldn't be able to say anything.

If Master Shen passes the imperial examination, then Miss Ye's status will also rise accordingly.

By any measure, it's better than having a little fish hold an umbrella for you!

Upon hearing this, Huang Dani's eyes lit up: "Okay, sister-in-law, I'll go to Master Shen's house right away."

"Miss Ye is the sister of a scholar; for her to hold an umbrella for Qiaoya is a great honor. I imagine the Wang family won't object!"

When Chen Xiaomai saw that her second sister-in-law was about to go to the Shen family after she finished speaking, she quickly stopped her.

"Second sister-in-law, if you go to the Shen family first and they agree, what if your in-laws disagree?"

How about this, see if it works for you?

I'll go with you to Tanshan and talk to the Wang family about our plans.

Then the eldest sister-in-law and Xiaoyu went to the Shen family to persuade Miss Ye Jun.

Regardless of the process, our ultimate goal is to get them to agree.

Getting married is a big deal, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, this is the only time Aqing will ever get married.

Besides, Qiaoya is a nice girl, and we don't want any trouble or unhappiness in their marriage.

Therefore, everything should be discussed and resolved amicably, so as not to damage the relationship between the two families.

Upon hearing this, Huang Dani hesitated for a moment, then said:

“Sister-in-law, as your mother-in-law and Qiaoya’s future mother-in-law, is it really appropriate for me to go to Tanshan to say this in person?”

Why don't you and your third sister-in-law go to Tanshan and tell the Wang family about our stance?

Then Xiaoyu and I went to Master Shen's place to find Miss Ye.

“Alright, third sister-in-law, let’s go. If we hurry, we should be able to catch up with Qiaoya’s mother.”

Chen Xiaomai, who was about to leave, stood rooted to the spot after hearing this.

"In that case, we'll go later. Their whole family will be there then, and it'll be easier for us to talk to them."

Otherwise, it wouldn't be proper to discuss this on the way.

Besides, I don't think Qiaoya's mother can make decisions in that family.

Qiaoya's father was a dutiful son, and whatever her grandmother said went, so this matter required the old lady's approval.

Chi Qiao quickly realized this as well and immediately said, "Let's go, let's walk slowly."

In preparation for Aqing's wedding, all the men in the family have gone hunting in the mountains these past few days.

I'll be back by noon at the latest.

If we don't catch any wild animals, we'll have to find a way to go down the mountain after lunch and buy a pig.

There's still a lot to do; we can't waste time on this trivial matter.

Tomorrow night, we'll have to start treating everyone in the village to dinner.

Chen Xiaomai thought about it and agreed. She immediately nodded and followed her, leaving one after the other.

Chi Yu watched his two sisters-in-law leave, then looked at Huang Dani, who was deep in thought, and asked, "Second sister-in-law, shall we go too?"
