Chapter 471: Even Became a Father (5)_1
The matchmaker felt somewhat embarrassed and awkward when she saw how resolutely she disagreed. She had assumed that since the two families were related, there was a good chance of success, but to her surprise, the prospect fell through upon their first meeting.
However, with this attempt at matchmaking, the news spread, and everyone became aware that Pei Qin was preparing to find a suitable match for her younger sister.
The signal was sent out, and eager families were ready to try their luck. Marrying Pei Qin may not be possible, but marrying her sister would not be a bad deal either. Furthermore, among Pei Yuan’s siblings, she was known to possess the best temperament—gentle, capable, and virtuous, the most suitable candidate for a daughter-in-law.
Even the in-laws of Sun Hongmei sent word through Grandma Sun, expressing a desire to establish a marital connection. However, Grandma Sun flatly refused. What kind of life did her daughter lead in the Sun family? Now that she was aware, there was no room for discussion. To suggest such a family for Xiao Pei was a question of whether she had any conscience left!
"Indeed, this matter cannot be discussed. We can speak up for a good family, but it’s best to stay clear of such a one," Lady Zou said, feeding her son Xingwang, agreeing with Grandma Sun.
"They might not give up and could really embarrass themselves in front of Xiao Pei! I’ll go warn her, we shouldn’t even listen to proposals from such a family," Grandma Sun frowned and got up, taking a bowl of pickles with her as she went.
After hearing this, Pei Qin pondered. Little Radish, Pei Yuan, seemed quite popular; she could start a recruitment drive for suitors!
Thinking this, Pei Qin became quite enthusiastic, screening each proposing family.
Feng Wei, however, was somewhat anxious. Mo Heng had asked him to find out exactly when Ms. Pei had her period, which is a private matter for women. He hadn’t paid much attention to it before, and now he was at a loss as to how to inquire.
A half-month had passed, and seeing that he hadn’t found anything, Mo Heng’s expression darkened, "Just go and ask Lu Hai." He had no plans to marry and settle down, yet he was quite zealous about his sister’s affairs.
