Ms. Chen patted her chest, looking quite nervous.
I guess this is their first time doing something like this, and they're not very familiar with the business yet.
Jiang Jiuniang asked with a smile, "Did you specifically seek me out for something, Auntie?"
"Sigh, it's all because of Zhi'er's marriage! He recently took a fancy to a girl and wants to marry her, but the girl isn't too willing. She hasn't even wanted to see him lately. I'm really worried that the guy is inexperienced and will scare such a good girl away. I thought you had a lot of ideas, so I came to ask you if you have any good suggestions?"
Chen knew that it was not easy to meet at this time, so she had to keep it brief.
Speaking of this, Jiang Jiuniang remembered that Sun had mentioned it to her at the banquet that night. At the time, she was thinking of helping, but she didn't expect those things to happen so suddenly, and that delayed her.
“I’ve heard a little about this matter. Auntie, please tell me more about it, and I’ll analyze it carefully.”
Chen knew at a glance that something was going to happen, and thought that Jiang Jiuniang was reliable. She hurriedly explained the whole story.
She had been paying close attention to her son's affairs, so she naturally had a thorough understanding of the situation and explained it in great detail.
Before long, Jiang Jiuniang understood the crux of the matter and repeated, "Auntie, are you saying that Miss Chen initially had feelings for Mr. Kang, but only suddenly changed her attitude when she went to propose marriage?"
"yes!"
Mrs. Chen slapped her thigh and said anxiously, "We just don't know where the problem lies. The girl was quite straightforward before. After the two cleared up the misunderstanding, they even went out to eat together. Zhi'er only sent a matchmaker because he saw that the girl didn't seem to be refusing. Who knew that the girl would suddenly change her attitude?"
Jiang Jiuniang nodded to indicate that she understood, and then said, "Then I need to send someone to inquire about that girl first, and then ask her what the specific reason is."
"Hehe, Zhi'er has compiled some, and I brought them with me."
Chen smiled and took out the few pages that Mr. Kang had written. Jiang Jiuniang was quite surprised to see that Mr. Kang was so attentive; it seemed that he had truly fallen in love.
Could it be that Mr. Kang visited us before for this very reason?
They thought they were going to talk about matters of the imperial court, but they misunderstood.
She took it and looked at it; it was filled with information about Miss Chen, but...
Jiang Jiuniang believes that it is not very useful for reference.
Although it was filled with dense content, it was all written by Mr. Kang with added filters. He used more than half a page to describe Miss Chen's beauty, which left Jiang Jiuniang speechless.
But in front of Madam Chen, she didn't say much, only saying, "Don't worry, Auntie, I'll make the arrangements."
She will help, but whether it will work out is another matter.
With her words reassured, the two of them went to the nearest Jiayuan Pavilion and bought some fabric before returning home.
After returning home, Jiang Jiuniang arranged for someone to investigate Chen Feier's information, and received a response the next day at noon.
You wouldn't believe it until you see it, but Chen Feier is actually the only successor of the escort agency.
It's not that this was the only child born in the family; it's that only this one child remained after everyone else died.
The fate of those who make escorts is uncertain, so it's no wonder that a young girl like her would develop such a strong and fierce personality.
She's not fierce; she's the one who gets bullied.
This has always been the way of the world.
This girl used to be an innocent and carefree little girl, but after her father and brother had an accident, she gradually became strong. Now she lives with her mother and supports an entire security escort agency.
To be honest, it was a truly miserable life.
After reviewing this information, Jiang Jiuniang felt that she had probably guessed most of the reasons why the girl was distancing herself from Mr. Kang.
However, it's too early to draw conclusions. Jiang Jiuniang decided to meet the young lady in person the next day, so she sent a visiting card to her door in advance.
Chen Feier practiced whipping all day at the training ground, her whole body soaked in sweat. On her way back, she glanced at the door intentionally or unintentionally.
The maid Xiao Tao, understanding the situation, said proactively, "Miss, Lord Kang didn't come today either."
Chen Feier's thoughts were exposed, and she was a little embarrassed and angry: "I'm not looking for him. It's better if he doesn't come. I get annoyed just seeing him!"
With that, she turned and left. Xiao Tao followed behind, sighed, and asked in bewilderment, "Miss, you clearly like Lord Kang, so why are you being so heartless to him?"
Chen Feier stopped in her tracks and said fiercely, "Who said I like him? How could I possibly like a weak and bookish nerd? I'm warning you, if you keep talking nonsense, I'll sell you out!"
After uttering those harsh words, she walked away as fast as the wind could carry her.
Xiao Tao knew that she was just trying to scare her and wasn't afraid at all, but she still felt sad for her.
She glanced back at the door. Why couldn't Lord Kang hold on for a few more days?
Her daughter has a very soft heart; maybe she'll soften her heart after a few more times.
But Lord Kang hasn't come these past few days. Does that mean we should just give up?
How heartbroken her daughter must be...
She shook her head in distress, preparing to catch up with her daughter.
"Knock knock knock..."
There was a knock on the door. She ran to open it, and a handsome young servant appeared. He blushed slightly when he saw Xiao Tao and asked, "Is Miss Chen here?"
Who are you?
Xiao Tao didn't answer but asked a question instead.
“I am a servant of the Lu family. My mistress has heard that Miss Chen is very skilled in martial arts at such a young age and wishes to make her acquaintance. Therefore, she has sent me to deliver a visiting card and invite Miss Chen to meet tomorrow.”
The servant was very polite and spoke softly, which made Xiao Tao quite fond of him.
Hearing him say that he was a servant of the Lu family, she was somewhat incredulous and asked again, "Who did you just say your master was?"
"She is the wife of the current Assistant General of the State."
The servant made sure to identify himself so they wouldn't mistake him for someone else.
Xiao Tao was very happy. After seeing the servant off, she rushed off to find Chen Feier.
"Girl, girl! What a wonderful occasion!"
Chen Feier had just settled into the bathtub to relax and relieve her fatigue when she heard Xiao Tao's startled voice. Annoyed, she simply ignored her.
Xiao Tao didn't care about that. Knowing that she must be taking a bath at this time, she ran straight in and asked, "Miss, look who sent this visiting card?"
"What?"
Chen Feier closed her eyes to rest, not wanting to listen to her speak.
"It's Madam Lu! The legendary woman from the capital, Jiang Jiuniang! She said she knows you are skilled in martial arts and have a straightforward and easy-going personality, and wants to be your friend. She invited you to meet her tomorrow!"
Chen Feier opened her eyes instantly, snatched the invitation card from Xiao Tao's hand, and confirmed that it really was Jiang Jiuniang inviting her to meet. She was so excited that she stood up directly from the bathtub.
"Oh my girl! Please sit down, what are you doing!"
Xiao Tao quickly pressed her down to sit, rubbing her back as she said with a smile, "Miss, don't you admire Madam Lu very much? This is a rare opportunity to become friends with Madam Lu!"
