Chapter 660: Bai Jinyan Pays a Visit (3)_1
Having delivered the gifts, I temporarily returned to Landlord Zhao’s residence and discussed with him the arrangements for the betrothal and the wedding. His home was far from Taiping Town, and it was inconvenient for my parents to travel such a long distance, so the betrothal was entrusted to Landlord Zhao, who was also considered one of my elders. When the wedding took place, a cousin from my side of the family would come over to help manage the event.
Landlord Zhao was very happy to see Yang Boyan and Pei Qian getting married, which brought his family and the Pei Qin family closer by a degree. Yang Boyan was his daughter-in-law’s brother, with an excellent character and family background, definitely a man worth entrusting a lifetime to. Although Pei Qian was a little brash, she had significant abilities and courage. After Pei Qin received the Decree from The Imperial Court, her status also rose, making them a suitable match.
On this end, preparations began actively, waiting for Pei Qian’s anger to subside, so the betrothal could be arranged right away.
Pei Qin came over to see Pei Qian, "Seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages is human instinct, and you can’t dismiss it just for that. As long as Yang Boyan is still decent, and you both truly like each other, that’s enough!"
Pei Qian pursed her lips, "... His cousin waited for him for so many years, and now she has become an old maid and got rejected. Even if I don’t mind, all those people who wanted Yang Boyan to marry her hate me now! Even if I do marry into their family, I won’t have peaceful days!"
"About that, if Yang Boyan also has feelings for his cousin, you don’t have to tell me; I wouldn’t support you two. That’s just unrequited love! If every case of unrequited love required the other party to marry, wouldn’t the world be in complete chaos? You live your life; why care about how others see you!" Pei Qin patted her shoulder.
It took a while for Pei Qian to speak again, "Their Yang family doesn’t seem to have good intentions either."
Pei Qin gave her a fierce glare and shoved her head, "Since everyone is malicious, why don’t you take a bomb and go seek revenge on society!"
