As night fell, Liu Yushi returned home after finishing his shift.
Zhou Dongwei eagerly pulled him into the room and carefully closed the door.
"What are you doing? It's not completely dark yet." Liu Yushi frowned, dissatisfied with Zhou Dongwei's mysterious behavior.
He is old and has long lost interest in sex.
Zhou Dongwei glared at him and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? I have something serious to discuss with you."
"What serious matter?" Liu Yushi was skeptical about Zhou Dongwei's words. He felt that this woman never talked about serious matters.
"Did you meet Qian Xingshan during lunch? What do you think about betrothing our Hongya to him?" Zhou Dongwei said excitedly.
Hongya is eighteen years old this year. She has been picky over the years and has not yet got married. She is already considered an older woman.
It would be best if she could be married to Qian Xingshan.
Liu Yushi's heart moved. He had been looking for an opportunity to get closer to the Dong family, and even thought about establishing a closer relationship with Madam Qian.
Is there any stronger relationship than in-laws?
Marrying Hongya to Qian Xingshan is really killing two birds with one stone.
"Okay, okay, that's really good..." Liu Yushi nodded with satisfaction. This woman Zhou Dongwei finally did something that satisfied him.
Zhou Dongwei felt happy when she received praise from her husband.
"Let me tell you, the Qian family must have a very impressive background. You didn't see the gift that Madam Qian sent yesterday. It was truly amazing."
When Zhou Dongwei thought of the green crystal jewelry, envy appeared in her eyes.
"Why isn't it simple?" Liu Yushi was aroused by Zhou Dongwei's words.
"The gift she gave to the Dong family was a hundred-year-old wild ginseng. I saw that wild ginseng and it was worth at least a thousand taels.
In addition to the wild ginseng, there was also a pine tree ornament carved from emerald. "Zhou Dongwei didn't recognize green crystal, but she mistook it for emerald.
"That ornament is so big. I wonder how big a gem it must have been to carve it." Zhou Dongwei said while gesturing the size with her hands.
"Such a big emerald?" Liu Yushi was also shocked. He never thought that the Qian family could be so generous.
"Really." Zhou Dongwei was afraid that Liu Yushi would not believe her, so she hurriedly added, "The value of that ornament cannot be measured..."
"If the Qian family's background is really so prominent, I'm afraid they won't look down on Hongya." Liu Yushi was a little worried. When choosing a marriage partner, the children of aristocratic families are often unwilling to choose a concubine's daughter.
"That's true." Zhou Dongwei nodded in agreement. She also felt that Liu Hongya was not worthy of Qian Xingshan.
"You go and test the Qian family's attitude first. If that doesn't work, I'll think of another way." Liu Yushi touched his chin and began to think of a countermeasure.
"Also, you go to the Qian family to get the medicine yourself tomorrow, and remember to hand the silver to Madam Qian in person." Liu Yushi instructed, "Be smart and don't always look silly.
Also, don't offend the Qian family and the Dong family again."
Zhou Dongwei glared at her husband in dissatisfaction. She said that she was already old and he was still calling her stupid. He was the one who looked stupid.
Your whole family is stupid.
The last time I offended them in the academy, it was because I didn’t know their backgrounds. Now that I know, I will definitely not offend them again.
Not only will I not offend them, I will also try my best to curry favor with them.
While thinking, Zhou Dongwei opened the door and walked out. She was going to prepare dinner.
As night fell and the sky was dotted with stars, Liu Qiang gently knocked on the door of the Liu Mansion.
In the study, the lights were on. Liu Yushi was sitting at the desk, holding a pen in his hand, his brows slightly furrowed, as if he was thinking about something important.
"Master, I found out." Liu Qiang said softly, breaking the silence of the study.
