Ever since Wei Hongjuan married into the Qu family, the number of tis the Qu family’s two elders had eaten with Mrs. Wei and the others could be counted on one hand. It wasn’t that the Qu family had any opinions about the Wei family, but that the Qu family and the Wei family really couldn’t get along.
Moreover, Mr. Wei and Mrs. Wei didn’t dare neglect Elder Qu. If Elder Qu was here today, Mrs. Wei wouldn’t dare be impudent. She probably wouldn’t even dare make a sound.
When Mrs. Wei heard Madam Qu say that they would have a gathering together when they were free, she replied with a stiff smile, “Alright, alright.”
Wei Hongjuan and her sister looked at Chen ng’er holding Madam Qu’s arm as they left together. Their expressions were all different.
Mrs. Wei retracted her gaze from Madam Qu and Chen ng’er and turned to look at her eldest daughter and said with so resentnt, “Look at you. You have been married into the Qu family for so many years. You’re still the sa. You’re not pleasing your in-laws at all. Now, even asking your mother-in-law to help your sister find a partner makes her refuse. It sounds like she’s just giving us a perfunctory reply.”
Wei Hongjuan listened to her mother’s grumbling and turned her head to the other side.
Chen ng’er held onto Madam Qu’s hand. Zhou Yunjie was one step behind the two of them. He was carrying several shopping bags in his hand, all bought for Madam Qu by Chen ng’er.
“Sigh, your grandpa and I don’t want to see your uncle and the others like the children of other aristocratic families by looking for a wife that matches their family background but doesn’t have much affection for them. The two of us ca to a conclusion. Since the country advocates the freedom of marriage, then the two of us will not interfere with your uncles and let them have their freedom of marriage. But now it seems that these marriages really need to be made with families of equal status. Even if it’s not made with a family of equal status, the character of the parents in these families is still very important.” Madam Qu could not help but sigh at Chen ng’er. “It seems that in the future, your brother and the others will have to let us arrange their marriages.”
Chen ng’er listened to her grandmother’s words and couldn’t help but feel sorry for her brother and cousins. They had been deprived of their freedom of marriage just like that.
“You should let them have so control, otherwise they’ll resent you and Grandpa.” Chen ng’er was still kind enough to speak up for her brothers.
...
“That’s true. However, little girl, if you have a partner in the future, you have to bring them back imdiately and let Grandpa and Grandma have a look at them. Do you understand? My family’s baby must have the best.” Madam Qu seed to have made up her mind.
Chen ng’er’s forehead was wrinkled. Her grandmother’s topic had jumped too quickly. Chen ng’er could not help but think of Yuwen Jing. She wondered if Yuwen Jing would be able to catch the eye of her grandparents?
Chen ng’er was quite worried for Yuwen Jing. However, Chen ng’er herself did not realize that she had already tacitly accepted Yuwen Jing’s status as her future husband.
On the other side, Yuwen Jing went to the Green Gang to look for Chen ng’er but found nothing. He was inford by Elder Liu that Chen ng’er had gone to the Qu family’s house. As soon as he sat in the car, he could not help but sneeze twice.
“Master, are you alright? Don’t tell you have a cold?” Baro turned his head worriedly and looked at Yuwen Jing who was sitting at the back.
“I’m fine,” Yuwen Jing rubbed his nose and said.
Allen, who was sitting in the driver’s seat, said with a cheeky smile, “From what I understand, Master didn’t catch a cold. Soone was thinking about him. Moreover, this person is probably our future mistress.”
Originally, Baro was worried that Allen would be reprimanded. After hearing Allen’s words, his worried heart was put to ease. As long as it was about their future mistress, their master seed to be especially easy to talk to.
Just like that, Baro saw their master’s face actually reveal a faint smile.
Madam Qu was in a particularly good mood today. Having a granddaughter was good. She was sothing that her grandsons could never compare to.
Just like that, Madam Qu arrived at the Qu family ho. After getting off the car, she did not let go of Chen ng’er’s hand.
However, Madam Qu’s good mood only lasted until she stepped through the Qu family’s door.
When she held Chen ng’er’s hand and walked into the Qu family ho, she could not wait to show off to her husband, Elder Qu. Her precious granddaughter had picked out many beautiful clothes for her today, she had also given the old couple a pair of pendants that she had personally carved.
However, before she could say these words, they were stuck in her throat.
She saw soone she didn’t want to see in her entire life. She saw a mber of the Murong family.
As for her youngest daughter-in-law, Murong Ying, if it weren’t for her granddaughter, Chen ng’er, she would have made Qu Yaobing divorce her.
She could treat Murong Ying with a normal heart. But when it ca to the mbers of the Murong family, especially Matriarch Murong, she felt nothing but hatred.
