Li Huoyun was determined to find a good match for his elder brother this ti.
He carefully took out a golden perfu bottle from his sleeve.
"Well, hearing that you like incense, I spent quite a sum of money, sought many channels, and finally found this Divine Enchantnt Fragrance!"
He carefully handed the golden perfu bottle to the approaching maid.
The maid held it with both hands, returned to Sun Chaoyue’s side, and gently presented it to her.
"Divine Enchantnt Fragrance?" Sun Chaoyue took the small bottle, gently opened the stopper, and sniffed it, imdiately showing a hint of admiration on her face.
"This little bottle—without spending hundreds of taels, don’t even think about it—you’ve really put your heart into it."
Li Huoyun smiled, despite feeling pain in his wallet.
"About my elder brother’s matter..."
"You’ve been running around for your elder brother’s matter not once or twice." Sun Chaoyue put away the Divine Enchantnt Fragrance, speaking casually.
"But although your elder brother has an official status, he’s still at a lower starting point in our circle."
She rembered that Li Huoyun’s elder brother was called Zhang Ying. He was a martial person, already twenty-six, with limited prospects, and most crucially, his background.
Zhang Ying’s family was from a village of hunters—such a starting point was too low.
If he wants a good match, they must be of equal status.
Thus, the suitable match for him would be the head maids or major servants in the social circles.
"How about this, Xiaoyu, you go and give it a try?" Sun Chaoyue casually pointed to a maid by her side.
"Eh? Young Lady, this... Xiaoyu doesn’t want to leave you!" The maid imdiately waved her hands repeatedly.
"Sister Dayue, this... do you think you can arrange soone from the circle...?" Li Huoyun, seeing the situation, was imdiately displeased.
He wasn’t putting in so much effort and expense just to let his Brother Zhang find a maid or servant girl.
Though in families like theirs, the close maidservants often are like sisters and exceptionally close to the family.
And indeed, many people really are willing to marry these won proactively.
"What? You’re not happy?" Sun Chaoyue shook her head speechlessly, "You think Xiaoyu is lacking? Admirers among small officials are not few."
Li Huoyun certainly understood this.
Many minor officials pursue maids like Xiaoyu, also hoping to build connections.
Plus, these won often have outstanding beauty and talent, so such matches are common throughout Great Spirit.
But...
"Sister Dayue, please don’t tease . I just want to find a virtuous sister-in-law in the circle. Please be kind, lend a hand." Li Huoyun implored repeatedly.
"My elder brother is honest and straightforward, always focused on martial arts. He’s ticulous and caring, now also officially employed, simply seeking a good sister-in-law to settle down and live." He hastily explained.
Sun Chaoyue felt helpless; before she feared his tough tactics, but now his soft approach made her sowhat reluctant. After all, they’ve known each other since childhood.
In the end, she thought it over.
"How about I present your brother’s situation to the circle and see if anyone’s interested; then I’ll give you so suggestions."
Li Huoyun was overjoyed at once.
"Thank you so much, Sister Dayue, for making it possible. With your words, it’s bound to succeed!"
"Don’t get too excited just yet." Sun Chaoyue shook her head, speechless, "If no one in the circle takes interest, don’t bla for not doing enough. After all, such matchmaking matters can’t be forced."
"Of course, naturally." Li Huoyun smiled while bowing repeatedly in thanks. "So, I shall take my leave now."
"Go, go." Sun Chaoyue waved her hand helplessly.
