Qian Xiaoxiao sighed softly: "With the temperament of my father, as long as the Duke of Zhenguo comes to propose a marriage, he will definitely accept it. With the uncle here, I'm not afraid of any trouble that woman will make."
Qian Qianqian took her cousin's hand: "This is a lifetime event, you can figure it out for yourself."
Qian Xiaoxiao nodded lightly: "Cousin, thank you."
"We are sisters, don't be polite to me, you just need to figure it out for yourself."
She actually wanted to say: The people in the big house will always be her backing, so she must think carefully.
But what my cousin just said does make sense.
Even if there are people in the big house to protect him, there are some things that need to be nodded by the second uncle. It is better to marry Ye Huaiyi than to be let go by the second aunt.

In the Nie Mansion, Madam Nie was drinking afternoon tea when she saw the eldest granddaughter Nie Huiqing hurried in: "I have seen my grandmother."
Mrs. Nie put down the tea cup in her hand: "What's wrong with you, leaving in such a hurry?"
Nie Huiqing approached the old lady: "Grandmother, my granddaughter just came back from outside, and I learned from an official lady that Xiao Chenrui will be returning to Beijing in a few days, and Xiao's residence has already started to prepare for his wedding with the eldest lady of the Prime Minister's residence. "
Mrs. Nie patted her granddaughter's hand when she heard it: "This matter can't be rushed, you don't have to think about it as your wife, and the Prime Minister's Mansion is not something we can offend."
Old Madam Nie meant that she entered Xiao's house to be a concubine anyway, so it doesn't matter whether it was earlier or later, but she didn't say it clearly.
Nie Huiqing said anxiously: "Grandmother, it's not too late for this matter. If my granddaughter can really enter Xiao's house as a concubine, the house can follow suit sooner."
Actually, only she knew what she was thinking, but it was just a pretense of using the Nie Mansion. Grandmother liked it the most.
When Mrs. Nie heard that it was related to the Nie family, she said, "What you said is, you have to remember that only when the Nie family is healed, you married daughters of the Nie family will have more confidence in your husband's family."
Then, he ordered: "Prepare the carriage, let's go to Tang Mansion."
From the palace, she sent someone to the Tang Mansion to send the greeting card, but the Tang family returned it. If she can refuse the greeting card, she can't keep people out.
In Madam Tang's courtyard, there was a visitor at this meeting, and I heard the maid from the outer courtyard come to report: "Mrs. Chen, Madam Nie is here to visit."
Madam Tang was stunned for a moment: "Which Nie family?"
The maid explained: "It's the cousin of the Empress Dowager, and she sent me a greeting card a few days ago. You asked me for a reason to refuse."
Mrs. Tang frowned slightly, feeling a little unhappy in her heart, thinking: I have refused, why do I still come to the door, isn't this embarrassing?
But out of politeness, he still said, "Invite someone in."
The maid gave a salute: "Yes."
Not long after, he brought Old Madam Nie and the two granddaughters of the Nie family in, and as soon as he entered the door, he said familiarly: "Old sister, I came here uninvited, and I hope you will forgive me."
Mrs. Tang was even more displeased when she heard this 'old sister', but because there are other guests here, it is not easy to care about her: "The visitor is a guest, sit down."
Mrs. Nie saw the other visitors sitting next, and she knew that she was rich or expensive by looking at her clothes. She thought that she was just getting acquainted: "Hello, you may not know me, but the queen mother in the palace is my cousin."
As soon as she said these words of introduction, the eldest granddaughter Nie Huiqing on the side wanted to cover her face directly, so she couldn't be more subtle, it was too direct, it was really shameful.
