“Hai, at that time, I was annoyed by the matchmakers who came to my door every day. It didn’t work even if I said 1 wouldn’t get married, so I proposed that kind of difficult mate selection criteria. Who knew that there would really be someone who could do it.’
MO Ruyue did not feel embarrassed about it. Although she had only been with Guying for three years, they felt like an old couple. They did not have a love that would last until death. It was just an ordinary relationship. They understood each other.
“Hahahaha, Sister-in-law, you’re right!”
This is called a match made in heaven!”
Qin Qingfei was also bursting into laughter.
“Isn’t that so?”
MO Ruyue thought so too, and everyone laughed even more when she said that.
“By the way, sister-in-law, your brother is the emperor of the Northern Kingdom. Didn’t he miss out on one of the criteria for choosing a spouse?
If they were illiterate, how would they manage the harem?
This family business was not ordinary.
You’re really flattering us by asking us to find such a girl for you.”
It was a fact that Xue Qing had grown more.
“It doesn’t matter if you don’t know how to read. You can teach it slowly later.
It’s not difficult.’
They didn’t think that they could read, and they didn’t care about that.
“Sister-in-law, I think you should go to the capital to find such a girl. It’s impossible to meet someone like her in the countryside.
Do you think everyone is you?
I think it’s impossible that we can’t find it.”
Qin Qingfei continued. She had thought about it seriously. She didn’t know anyone like that. The only people who were similar were her sister-in-law and Xue Qing.
Qin Rouwan and Xue Qing nodded. As for the three men, they were still thinking hard about whether there was such a family.
” Aiyo, sister-in-law, I suddenly realized that big brother doesn’t want to get married, so I deliberately put forward such a difficult standard for choosing a spouse.
However, Big Brother is the ruler of a country, so it’s only natural for him to have higher requirements. However, we really don’t know anyone like him. But don’t worry, Sister-in-law. I’ll definitely keep an eye out for you.”
Following Xue Qings words, everyone present nodded to show that they agreed.
MO Ruyue heard what they said and felt that it was not impossible. However, this was the only way now. She could not be anxious.
She did not want her brother to marry a random girl and fool around for the rest of his life. That would make his heart ache even more.
When he was in the palace, he told Ji Hong, the Empress Dowager, and the Empress that he had asked them to keep an eye out for such a girl. At that time, the expressions of the three of them were the same as their expressions now.
He hoped that his eldest brother could meet the girl he liked.
It had been almost two months since their families had gathered together. They had been in confinement, so the other three families hadn’t had the chance to gather together. However, Qin Rouwan and Xue Qing, who were in town, would occasionally gather together. The families naturally had to have a good meal at noon to improve their relationship.
Gu Ying had also returned. During lunch time, the servants went to fetch all the children back. They even went to town to fetch Doctor Qin and Hua Mingliang. There were a total of three tables. There were ten children alone, and not even one table could sit. This was not counting the few children from the few families. Including the seven children, there were seventeen children.
Qin Rouwan’s family had four, Qin Qingfei’s family had four, Xue Qings family had two, and MO Ruyue’s family had at most seven.
The scene was as lively as the New Year.
An hour after dinner, the older children went to school again. The seven children were at home. The triplets loved to play with Qin Qingfei and Xue Qings two three-year-old children.
Qin Zilu insisted on wearing the little crown that her uncle had given her. Although she was only eleven months old, she knew that she had to be pretty. She put on the crown and let Chun Hua pull her around in front of the little brothers and sisters.
This little crown was not only beautiful but also eye-catching. The tassels were flickering. No child could resist it when they saw it. This little child who could not walk made the little brothers and sisters cry.
The few of them understood immediately when they came out, but those families were very surprised.
MO Ruyue explained to them the origin of the crown and asked Chun Hua to put it away. This time, it was Qin Zilu’s turn to cry. MO Ruyue tried to coax her for a while but to no avail. In the end, she couldn’t help but spank her butt.
Everyone thought that the roof would be overturned, but Qin ZilZilu quieted down and behaved obediently.
“Look, even if you can’t walk or talk, you’re born to know how to read eyes. You just need to be taught a lesson.”
Nio Ruyue was quite happy. At least this child had someone to be afraid of.
Time passed. Five years had passed in a blink of an eye.
Today was Qin Qingshuangs wedding day.
Qin Qingshuang had inherited the good looks of the Qin family. As a woman, she changed a lot and became more and more attractive.
Ever since she returned from her trip to the Northland five years ago, apart from going to the Women’s College, she would also go to Qin Qingfei, Xue Qing, and Qin Rouwan’s homes. If there was nothing particularly urgent, she would not go anywhere else.
He was like a young lady from a wealthy family, but this was only on the surface. In reality, it was because he was too beautiful. It was especially annoying to go out and mess around.
In order to stop those annoying people from bothering him, Qin Qingshuang was so angry that she destroyed her image and beat them up. However, she still couldn’t stop those people from swarming over.
In the end, she was so angry that she learned from her sister-in-law and set an extremely high standard for choosing a spouse.
First of all, she had to wait until she was 18 before getting married. She would not consider it before that.
Then there were the requirements for the man: First of all, the man’s family had to be clean and refreshing. If there were no parents to control, he would even self-destruct his image and say that he had a bad temper. If he was controlled by his mother-in-law, he might be rough to his mother-in-law.
Then, the man had to be extremely talented and nine feet tall, completely modeled after his big brother. He couldn’t be ugly either. Actually, even if he couldn’t be ugly, he had to be handsome, and he had to be able to match the two poems she wrote herself.
Most importantly, she had to be the head of the household.
These conditions required a contract to be signed.
Now, Qin Qingshuang had made great achievements in her studies. She had graduated from the Women’s College the year before last. When she had nothing to do, she loved to read. It was not an exaggeration to say that she had read thousands of books. She had traveled thousands of miles and even made a trip to the northern country once a year. She had seen a lot and was a very knowledgeable woman.
If it weren’t for the fact that Xi Liang Country didn’t allow girls to take the imperial examinations, MO Ruyue felt that she would have no problem passing the imperial examinations.
MO Ruyue was also troubled by Qin Qingshuangs request for a spouse. She felt that she had not brought this up properly.
However, no matter what, she was still her child. She also felt that her child was worthy of the conditions that she had proposed. If she wanted to add two more conditions, it would be fine.
However, countless talented people had come to propose marriage and even deliberately showed off in front of Qin Qingshuang just to let her understand it herself. It was kind of them. MO Ruyue had taken a fancy to a few of the people she thought were pretty good. The one she was most satisfied with was Xiong Qiu, but Qin Qingshuang was not interested in him at all.
She was growing up year by year. Even if she wouldn’t be randomly pulled into the official marriage because of her relationship, she couldn’t just marry someone randomly because of this spouse selection requirement. If she was unlucky, she would be the one suffering..
