The next day, after Qiao Tianjing came back from court, he was called over by Mrs. Qiao.

"mother!"

Qiao Tianjing came over while still wearing his official uniform. He was a gentleman with a handsome face and was already old enough to get married.

Qiao Jiaojiao already knew Mrs. Qiao's plan, and now she was sitting aside laughing mischievously.

Mrs. Qiao pulled Qiao Tianjing to sit down and said in a gentle voice, "Boss, what do you think of the Miss Han that I talked to you about last time?"

When Mrs. Qiao said this, Qiao Tianjing's face immediately turned red.

"What my mother chooses is naturally the best."

Mrs. Qiao was not satisfied with this answer. She smiled and asked, "Mother asked, what do you mean?"

Qiao Jiaojiao couldn't help but giggle.

[My brother's face is as red as a monkey's butt! ]

Qiao Tianjing felt even more hot on his face. "I... I am naturally happy too."

After he finished speaking, he couldn't stand Qiao Jiaojiao's gaze anymore and stood up suddenly.

"Mother, I still have some official duties to attend to. I am leaving now. Everything is up to you."

When Qiao Jiaojiao saw her elder brother running away, she laughed so hard that she rolled into a ball on the couch.

Mrs. Qiao acted quickly. That afternoon, she asked Mrs. Yang from the Minister of Works' family to go to the Han family to sound out the situation.

Mrs. Yang and Mrs. Qiao were very good friends in the boudoir.

If a wealthy family in Beijing is interested in a marriage, the man will usually ask a lady of noble status to go to the woman's family to ask for her opinion.

This is to give face to the girl's family, and also to avoid direct contact between the two parties, which would lead to gossip and ultimately result in enmity instead of marriage.

Mrs. Yang was happy to make this trip on behalf of Mrs. Qiao, and she handed a visiting card to the Han family in the afternoon.

Lord Yang was Lord Han's immediate superior, so when Mrs. Yang arrived at the Han residence, she was naturally warmly received.

Madam Han really couldn't guess Madam Yang's intention. She thought that her husband had offended someone outside again, making it difficult for the Shangshu. She was very nervous for a while.

Mrs. Yang had an easy-going personality. Seeing that Mrs. Han was a little reserved, she hurried forward and held her hand.

"Sister Han, I came here today because I have something very happy to tell you."

Mrs. Han was a little confused for a moment. She was lucky that her husband didn't go out and talk nonsense and offend people. She didn't dare to think about happy events.

Madam Yang smiled mischievously, "I heard that Miss Han in your mansion is quiet, intelligent, well-educated and well-mannered. Can you call her out so I can meet her?"

Mrs. Han's heart skipped a beat when she heard this. Is Mrs. Yang here to propose marriage?

Who should I tell?

In fact, she has been considering Xian'er's marriage recently. The wife of the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple once revealed some ideas. Her family is of equal status to theirs, so she is a good choice.

"Mammy, please invite the young lady over and tell her that she wants to see a distinguished guest."

Upon hearing this, the nanny nearby hurried over, her heart also beating with fear.

I don’t know which family can invite the wife of the Minister of Works to propose marriage, and the young lady has to dress up carefully!

Han Yaxian was practicing calligraphy in the room.

Each stroke of her calligraphy was so powerful that it could be seen through the back of the paper, which showed that she had worked hard on her calligraphy. But for some reason, the last stroke was crooked.

When Han Yaxuan saw this, he put down his pen in disappointment, and his heart was really hard to calm down.

My mother said last night that she had shown her some ideas for several families, and that Mr. Mo from the Shaoqing family of the Dali Temple was the most suitable, and they were well-matched.

Han Yaxian knew in her heart that Mr. Mo was indeed the best choice, but in her heart... in her heart...

Thinking of this, Han Yaxian felt sad and bitter in her heart, because she knew clearly that there was a huge gap between her and that man's family background.

Besides, they were just casual acquaintances, and that person might have forgotten her long ago...

Han Yaxuan was just thinking about this when Nanny Gu came hurriedly.

"Miss, the lady wants you to go out to meet a guest."

Han Yaxian was slightly startled, "Who is coming?"

Nanny Gu did not dare to be careless and said in a deep voice: "Miss, it's the wife of the Minister of Industry."

As soon as these words came out, Han Yaxian's expression suddenly changed, "Did Dad offend someone outside again?"

Nanny Gu waved her hands quickly. She knew that some things should not be said in front of the young lady, but since the matter was serious, Nanny Gu couldn't help but reveal a sentence:

"Miss, Madam Yang asked to see you."

After being stunned for a moment, Han Yaxian finally realized that this Madam Yang came specifically for her.

As a young lady in the boudoir, the only thing that deserves Mrs. Yang's attention is her lifelong affairs.

Thinking of this, Han Yaxian sighed softly, turned around and sat in front of the dressing table, and said to her personal maid:

"Chunxi, please change my hair style for me."

No matter who Mrs. Yang is matchmaking for, she represents the Han family's reputation and upbringing, and she must not neglect the distinguished guest.

Chunxi was a deft person and quickly dressed Han Yaxian up again.

She changed into a lake green long dress, her eyebrows and eyes were beautiful, like a piece of warm jade.

The moment Madam Yang saw Han Yaxian, her eyes couldn't help but light up.

The girl is gentle, elegant, with clear eyes and graceful manners. She is indeed a rare good girl!

Madam Yang stood up, pulled Han Yaxian's hand, and took off a bracelet on her wrist and gave it to her.

"Good boy, what a good boy."

After Han Yaxian left, Madam Yang formally stated her purpose.

"Sister, to be honest with you, it was the Qiao family's wife who asked me to be the matchmaker. Their eldest son wants to marry your Miss Han."

Mrs. Han was suddenly startled: "Qiao family?"

Before Han Yaxian had walked far, Mrs. Han's short exclamation fell into her ears.

She suddenly stopped and stood there in a daze.

At this moment, joy, fear, disbelief, several emotions surged into Han Yaxian's heart, making her feel a little dizzy.

Is...is it that Qiao family?

When Mrs. Yang saw Mrs. Han's expression of disbelief, she couldn't help but raise the corner of her mouth.

Don't blame Mrs. Han. She was also shocked when she first heard it from Mrs. Qiao.

After all, everyone in the capital knew that the eldest son of the Qiao family was qualified to marry the princess.

Madam Han was a little terrified, "Madam Yang, this... this is probably..."

She felt last time that Mrs. Qiao's expression when she looked at Xian'er was a bit meaningful, but the eldest son of the Qiao family was well-known in the capital, so she really didn't dare to think about getting married.

Of course, Mrs. Han naturally thinks that her daughter is the best, but her family background... is really too far behind.

She was worried that her daughter would have to please others after getting married and live a miserable life.

Madam Yang saw Madam Han's concerns and comforted her in a gentle voice:

"Don't be afraid, Sister Han. The Qiao family sincerely wants to marry your daughter. To be honest, Mrs. Qiao is my close friend. She came to me specifically for this matter and asked me to make sure it's done for her."

"I know Mrs. Qiao very well. She is gentle and kind, and will definitely treat your daughter well. As for Dalang, I watched him grow up with my own eyes. The child's character is unique, and everyone who sees him will praise him."

"As for the issue of the family lintel that Sister Han is worried about, Mrs. Qiao specifically asked me to tell Sister that the Qiao family never cares about this. If Miss Han marries, she will definitely love her like her own daughter."
