Chapter 1429 - 1432: Only Talking to the Zhang Family’s Young Lady_1
"Sister, I told you, I really have spotted something," Yang Xiayun said excitedly, "Big Brother seems to know that girl from the Zhang Family. We bumped into Big Brother twice along the way, and both times he was only talking to the girl from the Zhang Family."
"The Zhang Family? It wouldn’t happen to be the same Zhang Family that your brother-in-law mentioned last time, would it?"
Unfortunately, as soon as she asked, Yang Xiayun nodded emphatically.
"This..." Yang Chuxia thought for a moment before asking again, "Which branch of the Zhang Family is that girl from?"
"The fourth branch."
Upon hearing it was someone from the fourth branch, Yang Chuxia breathed a sigh of relief. Thank goodness, the fourth branch had a severed relationship with the other branches. It would have been problematic if he had taken a liking to a girl from any of the other branches.
"Sister, I’m thinking our mother won’t agree, right?"
"It’s highly unlikely!" As it turned out, Ms.Wang indeed did not agree, and she was vehemently opposed.
In the evening, when Yang Xiayun came over to the Ye Family’s side, Yang Qingrui took the opportunity to speak to Ms.Wang. He said he did not fancy the girl from the He Family, but he liked the one from the Zhang Family more. If they wanted him to marry, it had to be the girl from the Zhang Family; otherwise, he’d just continue to play the field.
His stubborn attitude infuriated Ms.Wang, who immediately objected - he could not marry a girl from the Zhang Family.
What she forgot was to instruct Yang Xiayun not to invite the girl from the Zhang Family. Who would have thought that she would forget to say it, and not only did Yang Xiayun end up inviting her, but her son had also taken a liking to her.
After speaking with Yang Qingrui, Ms.Wang headed over to the Ye Family’s place. When she arrived, the sisters were also discussing this matter.
"Why on earth did you invite the girl from the Zhang Family for no reason? Didn’t you hear what Brother An said about the Zhang Family last time? Now look, your big brother insists on marrying a girl from the Zhang Family!"
Upon seeing Yang Xiayun, Ms.Wang started scolding her relentlessly.
"Mother, you’re being unreasonable," Yang Xiayun argued back, "The Zhang Family and our family have relations. I invited many different families, would it have been proper to leave out just the Zhang Family?"
"Mother, Yunyun is right," Yang Chuxia interjected, "It’s Qingrui’s marriage, and if he really likes her, you should go and inquire about the girl’s character. Getting angry won’t solve anything."
"Oh my, as if you don’t know about that Zhang Family. Can a girl from such a family be married into ours? Have you forgotten what Brother An said last time? Children from the first branch belong to the third branch, and those from the second branch might belong to both branches. How chaotic is that family?"
Ms.Wang had in fact taken a liking to the girl from the Zhang Family the previous time. If not for this issue, she wouldn’t have opposed it.
Yang Chuxia was speechless; she knew her mother was concerned about this very issue.
"Mother, Qingrui fancies a girl from the fourth branch. You’ve forgotten that Brother An had also mentioned the fourth branch has cut ties with the other branches. From this alone, it’s clear the fourth branch does not wish to continue the chaos with the others and has more sense. Why don’t you take a further look into it? If she’s indeed suitable and Qingrui is willing, then it’s settled. If she’s not, then you can talk it over with Qingrui," she said.
"This?" Ms.Wang hesitated, but still shook her head, "No, it’s too troublesome with such a family. Saying things like severing ties, just look at Brother An’s granduncle, he’s supposed to have severed ties with the Ye Family, and yet he’s still clinging on. Once things are set, who’s to say the other branches won’t come out of the woodwork to claim relations?"
"Well then, Mother, just wait for my brother to remain a bachelor," Yang Xiayun said with a shrug, "I’ll let you in on a secret—I’m pretty sure my brother has already met the girl from the Zhang Family before, otherwise he wouldn’t be so insistent on marrying her. In my opinion, you should hurry and find out if it can be arranged. Don’t wait until another incident like Qian Xiaoqing’s occurs, that would truly drive us all crazy."
