Chapter 870: Chapter 368: Mr. Yu Shan Leaves the Capital (Part 2)
Miss Qiao Lan brought a food box to Begonia Garden.
Xiang Wei cheerfully said, “Qiao Lan, what delicious treats have you brought?” After Qiao Lan returned, Xiang Wei felt it was wasted to keep her at Begonia Garden. Since Yueyao had four personal maids, Qiao Lan was left with nothing to do. Xiang Wei simply let Qiao Lan help at the Rouge Shop, as the shop was attended by won, making it more convenient for female guests. Qiao Lan quite enjoyed working at the Rouge Shop.
Knowing Xiang Wei was a foodie, Qiao Lan deliberately brought so snacks she found delicious: “These are lotus powder balls. I think they’re quite tasty, so I brought so over for Miss and Sister Xiang Wei to try.”
Xiang Wei imdiately asked Xi Yu to fetch a bowl. As there was charcoal underneath the food box, the treats were still warm. Xiang Wei, holding the spoon with a silver tone, scooped one up and ate it: “Mm, delicious, the filling is sweet and refreshing, with a broth that carries a rich osmanthus flavor, just wonderful. Xi Yu, scoop a bowl for Miss.” Xiang Wei usually tasted outside food first; if she thought it was good, only then she would send it to Yueyao. If not, Yueyao wouldn’t see it.
After Xiang Wei was comfortably satiated, Qiao Lan then asked, “Sister Xiang Wei, is there a particular reason you called back?” Qiao Lan had received Xiang Wei’s ssage and made a special trip after asking for leave.
Xiang Wei smiled and said, “Yes, there is a matter. There is a guard in the residence nad Wang Sheng, whose original wife passed away three years ago, leaving two sons behind. Wang Sheng is a good person, quite honest, and now he wishes to find another partner. I wonder what you might think about this?” Wang Sheng used to be an Escort Master, whom Xiang Wei brought in to serve as a guard for Yueyao.
Qiao Lan quickly shook her head: “Alright.” Ever since the doctor told her she couldn’t have children, she hadn’t considered marrying.
Xiang Wei chuckled and stood up: “Wang Sheng already has two sons, so he’s not concerned about offspring. He’s raising two children, and his financial situation is just average. If you agree, that would be his luck accumulated over eight lifetis. Of course, if you think he bringing two children along is troubleso, then that’s fine too.” Xiang Wei thought Qiao Lan was a good girl and didn’t want her to just spend the rest of her life alone. Although Wang Sheng’s family situation was not ideal, he was a reliable person.
Qiao Lan’s face instantly turned red: “Sister Xiang Wei, let think about it.” The news was too overwhelming for Qiao Lan to digest right away.
Xiang Wei knew one can’t beco overweight from eating too fast: “Alright, once you’ve thought it through, I’ll arrange for you to et. If you think it’s suitable, great; if not, we’ll keep looking slowly.”
Qiao Lan expressed gratitude: “Thank you, Sister Xiang Wei.”
Xiang Wei smiled and said, “This was sothing Miss was ntioning a few days ago, which made pay attention. If you want to thank soone, thank Miss!” It was Yueyao who first brought it up, but Wang Sheng was found by Xiang Wei.
Qiao Lan trusted Xiang Wei quite a lot; after the initial panic, she bit her lip and said: “Sister Xiang Wei, arrange an opportunity for to et him!” If he is indeed good, she might give it a try.
Xiang Wei clapped her hands and laughed: “Alright, next ti you’re back, I’ll let you et.”
After bowing to Yueyao, Qiao Lan returned to the shop. Qiao Lan had gone out together with Xi Juan. Xi Juan was going to pick up Yueyao’s custom-made clothes from the shop. As they went out, Qiao Lan saw a sturdy-looking man in cloth clothes holding a whip.
Xi Juan gave Qiao Lan a nudge: “Hurry up and get on!”
Qiao Lan didn’t think much of it, imdiately getting onto the carriage and then lowering the curtain. It wasn’t until they were outside the shop that Qiao Lan and Xi Juan got off the carriage, and the man found a spot to park it.
Once inside the shop, Xi Juan softly said, “Sister Qiao Lan, that’s Wang Sheng.”
Qiao Lan exclaid softly, glancing back. At this mont, Wang Sheng was bowing his head, inspecting the carriage. Qiao Lan imdiately lowered her head.
When Xi Juan returned, she cheerfully reported the situation to Yueyao: “Sister Qiao Lan seems to find the man quite nice, just unsure what the other party thinks?”
Yueyao smiled and said, “Let Nanny Hao go and ask. If Wang Sheng has no objections, then let’s settle the marriage sooner.” Qiao Lan wasn’t that young anymore, she was twenty-one this year.
Wang Sheng received the news and felt as if a pie had fallen from the sky and hit him on the head. That Miss Qiao Lan, looking like a fairy, Miss Yueyao actually agreed to match her with him.
Nanny Hao inford Wang Sheng of Qiao Lan’s condition. If Qiao Lan weren’t physically impaired, she certainly wouldn’t have considered Wang Sheng. However, even so, Wang Sheng was getting a good deal. Of course, a deal isn’t easy to grab; Xiang Wei also posed a condition that Wang Sheng must sign a contract.
