Ms. Liu Junior’s brother is also so honest that it’s a bit comically frustrating.
Who else’s father would bluntly say that their daughter will grow up to be unattractive?
After hearing this, Ms. Liu Junior’s sister-in-law just wanted to punch him a few tis.
"What’s wrong with our daughter? What does she lack? Besides, she’s still young now, what can you tell? Don’t people say ’a girl changes eighteen tis between childhood and womanhood’?" As she spoke, she muttered to herself, "I’m actually afraid of her future, that’s why I want to settle her marriage now. If she doesn’t grow up pretty, it’ll be too late for regrets."
Having thought about it, Ms. Liu Junior’s sister-in-law spat a few tis in disdain.
She had been led astray by this man.
"I’m well aware that the Ye family won’t easily make a marriage alliance with farrs like us, but isn’t there our second sister and her husband?" she plotted aloud, "I heard that her husband’s family has helped the Ye family a lot, and they have a lot of face in the Ye household. When the ti cos, let the second sister’s husband speak for us. Would the Ye family refuse to give face to him? They’ll surely give face to him, and then the marriage can be arranged. Hehe, I’ve found a good match for our daughter."
Look at her speak, as if the marriage had already been set.
Ms. Liu Junior’s brother felt that this matter was inappropriate, but seeing that she was obsessed, he knew that further objections would fall on deaf ears, so he simply stopped talking.
Once Ms. Liu Junior’s sister-in-law had thought everything through, she beca as energetic as if she had been injected with chicken blood. As soon as the rooster crowed in the morning, she couldn’t wait to get out of bed.
She prepared breakfast for the whole family, then hurried to wake her in-laws.
Ms. Liu Junior’s mother was pleased to see her daughter-in-law so proactive.
After they had eaten, Ms. Liu Junior’s sister-in-law cajoled her younger siblings to wash the dishes, and she took the opportunity to pull her mother-in-law aside to discuss the thoughts she had the previous night.
At first, Ms. Liu Junior’s mother felt sothing was amiss. Your plan sounds good, but the others might not be willing. Although our son-in-law’s family has face, when it cos down to the children’s future, I’m afraid face won’t do the trick.
But Ms. Liu Junior’s sister-in-law insisted on asking about it first. Maybe the Ye family would agree?
Truth be told, Ms. Liu Junior’s mother was also sowhat tempted, especially after having t Yang Chuxia at her second daughter’s ho and being impressed by Yang Chuxia and her entourage.
After being poor for so long, who doesn’t yearn for wealth?
She felt there was nothing incomprehensible about her desire for wealth.
Not waiting any longer, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law got ready and went directly to Land Officer Yang’s ho.
Upon reaching Land Officer Yang’s ho, Ms. Liu Junior was surprised by her mother and sister-in-law’s sudden visit, worrying that sothing significant had happened.
But once her mother and sister-in-law explained their intentions, she fell silent!
This was sothing she didn’t quite know how to handle. In her heart, she hoped it would work out since it involved her niece’s lifeti happiness, but she truly felt that the Ye family wouldn’t agree. Furthermore, if the proposal had co from the groom’s family, it would have been a welco suggestion. However, the bride’s family making the move first seed desperate, especially when the bride’s family was of lower status—it simply seed too forward.
Ms. Liu Junior felt her own face growing hot just listening to this.
"Second sister, whether it works out or not, you have to say sothing!" her sister-in-law urged, growing impatient with her silence.
Ms. Liu Junior’s mother also said, "Isn’t this how marriage talks are conducted? We’re not asking you and your husband to make sure the marriage takes place, just to inquire about it. Why are you making such a big deal out of it?"
Ms. Liu Junior thought it over and said, "I’ll go call my mother-in-law. It’s better to discuss this with her. If mother truly wants to inquire, then my mother-in-law should be the one to speak."
