Chapter 693, Soaring to Great Heights (3)_1
"Let’s set it for the fourteenth of June." Therefore, Lady Yu hurried to the market today to buy things in advance and also to let Pei Qin know ahead of time, so she wouldn’t have to bother looking for matchmakers anymore.
Pei Qin nodded in agreement, saying she would be busy that day but would still send a gift.
Lady Yu, aware that Pei Qin was extremely busy at the moment, smiled and accepted, then took out two pairs of silk flowers she had bought. "They said these are a new style, so I bought an extra pair. Let Qianqian and Jiujiu wear them!" With her daughter’s marriage arrangements set, now she was only worried about her eldest son.
Pei Qin thought about how Pei Qian, aside from being busy with work and the breeding farm, would always grit her teeth and scowl every time she received a letter from Fang Liuming. Her lips stiffened into a forced smile. Reluctantly, she let Huang Qiu take the silk flowers.
Lady Yu was anxious. After all, Dalang had been taught by Pei Qin and Mo Heng as a couple. If she didn’t like Dalang, she wouldn’t have taught him martial arts exclusively. Since it wasn’t aversion, and now Dalang had even become an official of The Imperial Court, was it all just because they couldn’t marry among relatives? But such marriages among relatives are often seen as good matches. With Dalang as a brother-in-law like that, it should be enough, right?
Grandma Fang told her not to worry, Pei Qian was still young. Seeing Pei Qin’s attitude, even if she agreed, she wouldn’t let them marry her off early. They would deal with Fang Fang’s marriage first.
Lady Yu could only nod, yet her son was almost twenty, and others his age already had two or three children. Jiujiu had grown so much as well, yet her hope of holding a grandchild was still dim, "It’s true that nothing ever goes completely smoothly!" Her eldest son had a smooth career in the exam system but faced a bumpy road in his love life.
She would focus on her daughter’s marriage arrangements first.
Finally, Fang Fang’s marriage was settled. Not only did the whole family breathe a sigh of relief, but Lady Yu also felt like a weight was lifted from her heart, as did everyone in Fang Family Village. If they had waited any longer, she really would have ended up an old maid.
