Chapter 460 Isn’t this confusing?
"Yes, my last name is Cui. Our Cui family is a famous family in Chubei Prefecture. We have several girls who are very smart and clever. They are all learning music, chess, calligraphy and painting..."
"My husband's surname is Huang, from the capital. He's a steward of the Beijing Construction Supervisory Office. We have a lovely, legitimate granddaughter. On the day she was born, rosy clouds descended from the sky, and strange phenomena appeared all around. A fortune teller came to our house and said that our little granddaughter would be a dragon among men and a phoenix, suitable for a prosperous family. That girl with the pigtails over there is our legitimate granddaughter..."
As they spoke, they each pointed towards the group of girls.
That is where the little girls gather to play. They have no patience and cannot listen to the opera. There are some swings, shuttlecocks, skipping ropes, sandbags and other toys for little girls. They all play there.
…
Jiang Lianzhu was a little confused. She didn't even recognize all of these gorgeous women, so why did they introduce her to the girls from far away?
Isn’t this confusing?
What to let her see?
She only saw her own precious daughter, Nanbao, followed by two little maids, waiting in line to play on the swing.
She automatically blocked out the other girls, no matter how pretty or not, and only had eyes for her own daughter.
"Everyone, please tell me what you want to say! I'm sorry for the hospitality today, and I really have something to do..."
Seeing that Jiang Lianzhu really didn't seem to understand, the women had no choice but to speak frankly.
"It's like this, Madam Renyi. Your little Prince Xiang probably hasn't gotten engaged yet. He just returned to the capital. Does he have any suitable girls in mind? The girls from our families are all from wealthy families. Would the little Prince Xiang consider one?"
Jiang Lianzhu's mouth twitched. "My son is only seven years old this year! I haven't considered it so early. Not for now."
"Seven years old isn't too early. Many people arrange marriages as children. Although the little prince is so outstanding and will definitely become a great man in the future, he has just arrived in the capital and is unfamiliar with the city. Wouldn't it be better if he could find a reliable family to help him? Madam Renyi is a smart person. You can consider this for the little prince."
"That's right, Madam Renyi. The young Prince Xiang is too noble. It's possible that our little girl isn't worthy of him. However, don't you have the Second Young Master in your Prince Xiang's Mansion? I've seen him before and he's quite good. The little guy seems smart and is a good candidate..."
"Madam Renyi, we don't have any outstanding ladies in our family, but we have a few good boys. I think the eldest daughter of Prince Xiang's mansion, Nanbao, is quite attractive. She is round and looks like a very lucky girl. I want to ask for our boy..."
Jiang Lianzhu felt like a hundred bees were buzzing around her ears.
This feeling is like being targeted by a big piece of fat meat.
No wonder they are so attentive. It turns out that no one comes to visit you for no reason.
She was convinced!
"Everyone, I'm sorry, our children are still young, so we're not considering marriage for the time being. We'll wait until they come of age. I appreciate your kindness, and I'm sorry for the inadequacy of our hospitality..."
Force your way out of the crowd and prepare to escape.

Nanbao likes boxing the most, but swinging is also her strength.
She is very brave and strong, and she can swing very high on the swing without anyone pushing her.
She had been waiting in line under the swing for a long time.
When it was her turn, someone else got there first.
A little girl in a light pink dress giggled and rushed ahead of Nanbao, "Let me play first."
Nanbao was about to lose her temper, but when she thought of Jiang Lianzhu's words, she pursed her lips and moved away.
When she got up in the morning, Jiang Lianzhu told her that they had guests at home and she was a member of the family, so she was asked to help take care of the children and guests. She agreed without hesitation.
Since there was no room for the swing, she didn't play and went to play the sandbag throwing game where no one was playing.
At this time, I heard a mocking voice behind me.
"See, the country girl is so easy to bully and so timid. I've robbed her several times, but she doesn't even dare to say a word."
"Hush, keep your voice down. Her brother is the famous Little Xiang Prince in the capital. My father said that the Little Xiang Prince has a bright future."
"Tsk, is your father still thinking of marrying you to the Little Xiang Prince? Even if you marry the Little Xiang Prince, you don't have to speak up for a country girl like that. A country girl is a country girl. She looks so unfashionable. I dare say she can't even write her own name."
"It's so funny, you guys pronounce her name, Nanbao, country people like to name their little girls Nannan or something like that, it's so unfashionable."
…
Nanbao turned around.
The little girls in pink skirts who had just snatched her swing didn't know how to hide their feelings at all and were still laughing mockingly.
"Are you saying bad things about me?" Nanbao walked up to them and asked seriously.
Several little girls in pink skirts had tested Nanbao's bottom line before, thinking that she was easy to control, so they didn't take her seriously at all.
"Yes, so what? We are not wrong. Are you a little girl who grew up in the countryside?"
"And their adoptive mother, she's just a village girl, but she talks like she's so great. She's just flattering herself..."
Before he could finish his words, his daughter came over to greet him.
The punch was so fast that people had no time to prepare.
Several little girls who mocked her were punched in the face and were knocked away.
"ah!"
"ah!!"
A few screams.
It was so fast that even the maids around them were stunned, and then they reacted.
"Oh my God! Miss, Miss..."
"Someone, come and beat him up! That country bumpkin is beating someone up! He's beating up our second young lady..."
She shouted while going to support her master.
Several young girls in gorgeous pink dresses fell backwards to the ground at this moment. Their noses were almost broken by punches in front of them, and they were in excruciating pain. The back of their heads hit the ground again, and they were seeing stars. Most of them still couldn't believe it!
A little country girl actually dared to hit them!
They are the daughters of rich families who were born and raised in the capital!
Golden branches and jade leaves!
After they stood up with the help of the maids and regained their consciousness, they were immediately furious.
She got up and wanted to tear Nanbao apart, but then she thought, they were guests in someone else's home, there were a lot of people outside, and it would be uncivilized for them, as daughters of official families, to fight in public.
So, each of them ordered his own maid to do something.
"I'm so pissed off! This country bumpkin dared to hit us! She's so bold! All of you come together and beat her to death..."
"Yes, Chuntao, Chunxing, come on, beat her! Beat her! Help me vent my anger."
"You wild girl, you're being unreasonable. Our capital isn't a place for country bumpkins to act arrogantly. Hit her, pull her hair, scratch her face. Whoever stands up for me will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver!!!"
