"Luo'er greets grandmother and old lady."
The old lady of the Marquis Zhongyi's Mansion looked at Li Qingluo.
A look of surprise crossed her face.
How come this little girl becomes more and more beautiful as she gets older?
Although the last time I saw her, she had grown into a graceful and beautiful lady.
Compared with all the girls in Jinling City, she is very outstanding.
But it’s only been a few months since we last met.
She actually looks even better than before.
Her face is like a lotus in the bright moon, with bright eyes, white teeth, and skin as white as ice and bones.
It's not an exaggeration to call her a fairy-like beauty!
How did Xiuzhen raise her granddaughter?
How could a little village girl be raised into a fairy in just one year?
Although before coming, the old lady of the Marquis of Zhongyi's Mansion still had some opinions about Li Qingluo.
After all, times have changed. Even if the two of them, grandparents and grandchildren, still live in a "general's mansion," this general's mansion only sounds nice. What use is it actually?
Xiuzhen does not hold an official position.
There is no husband in their family.
Although Pei Xiuzhen was once a famous female general who had made many military achievements, after these thirty years of glory, now only the most useless "glory" is left on her.
After all, they are just a family of widows, old and young. Which good family in Jinling City would marry such a family with no descendants as their principal wife?
Not only can I not help my husband's family at all, but I don't know whether the matter of the General's Mansion in Dongyin Lane will implicate this side.
Therefore, when Zhuang Wei mentioned again that he wanted to marry Li Qingluo, he was opposed by the entire family.
But Sanlang has a promising future.
He worked hard and passed the imperial examination.
He also threatened to take advantage of the family's future and his brother's offspring.
"If you don't agree, I will never marry. Even if you use all your tricks to make me marry someone else, I will not have children with her."
"Do you want a puppet, or a real, flesh-and-blood Shouzaburo?"
"Can't you just do this for me?"
"From now on, I will go through fire and water for the entire family. No matter how much I have to do, I will gladly do it. I only ask that you will obey me this time!"
"Anyway, I'm not the eldest son. Even if I marry her, a girl from a humble family with no support or future in her family, what does it matter?"
"Even if my wife's family can't help me in the court in the future, I will never regret it!"
Zhuang Sanlang had made countless troubles at home.
He understands everything in his heart.
I had everything clearly explained to him, including the interests and future.
He just had a heart that wanted to marry Li Qingluo.
I saw him getting thinner day by day.
If he continues to make trouble, I'm afraid that the energy he has been holding back will dissipate...
This incident made the old lady of the Marquis of Zhongyi's Mansion really unable to bear it, so she made the decision.
"Grandma, I'll take you to propose marriage!"
She had thought that since the Marquis' Mansion did not despise the two of them, and was willing to accept Li Qingluo, whose reputation had long been tarnished by the family's turmoil, her old friend would happily agree.
After all, Li Qingluo almost married into the Qu family before.
Don’t they know what the Qu family’s situation is now?
After escaping from such a bad place, the Marquis of Zhongyi's Mansion was willing to turn around and discuss marriage with them. What a blessing and happy event this is!
Who would have thought that this stubborn old Pei Xiuzhen would actually say, "I still want to keep her by my side for a few more years. It's still too early for marriage."
Good morning? Her granddaughter's seventeenth birthday is almost here, right?
What kind of daughter from a good family is still unengaged at the age of sixteen?
If you delay any longer, you will become an old maid. How can you find a good marriage?
The old lady of the Marquis' Mansion quickly understood.
Doesn’t Pei Xiuzhen want to?
"Xiuzhen, you might not know yet, but our Sanlang just ranked 16th in the top class and will soon be joining the Hanlin Academy as an editor."
"You really don't want such a good grandson-in-law?"
Even though the old lady of the Marquis' Mansion had made her words so clear, it was not easy for Old Madam Pei to slap her in the face.
He just smiled and said, "We, Luo'er, are planning to find a son-in-law."
"Will your family release Sanlang? To continue the incense of my beautiful general's mansion?"
The old lady of the Marquis' Mansion was so angry that she almost jumped up and stood up.
She looked at Zhuang Saburo with sharp eyes.
As if to say: Do you understand? Even if their mansion lowered half its head and asked for marriage, they would not want it at all!
But Zhuang Sanlang's hesitant expression made the old lady of the Marquis's Mansion tremble in her heart: Could it be that this fool really wants to come to this door?
The old lady of the Marquis's Mansion only felt a momentary heartache.
She held her chest and said that Madam Pei was so arbitrary and selfish that she ruined Li Qingluo's true happiness in the future.
Madam Pei: "Why don't you ask her yourself? This girl has her own ideas now. Even as her grandmother, I can't easily make her decisions."
That's why Li Qingluo was called out.
After she met the old lady of the Marquis of Zhongyi's Mansion, the old lady really liked her more and more.
This girl's temperament is becoming more and more calm now.
Compared to Liu Qingzhu, who is superficial, frivolous and shallow, she does have the charm of Pei Xiuzhen when she was young.
"Good, good boy."
No wonder Zhuang Saburo is so fond of her. His eyesight is finally better now.
Besides, these two children were originally meant to be a match made in heaven!
When I arranged the marriage for you, wasn't it for them?
The old lady of the Marquisate was agitated and held Li Qingluo's hand: "Luo'er, Sanlang was wrong before. He mistook a fish eye for a pearl."
"But he knew he was wrong a long time ago. Now he's working hard to get a good degree. He wants you to see his determination."
"Good boy, would you give him another chance?"
"It's rare to find such a sincere man in this world."
