Chapter 1499: Chapter 1499: Second Sister Zhouâs Marriage Proposal
This matter was settled just like that. After lunch, Shu Yu went to visit the tenants and brought up Jiang Kuanyu discreetly.
Unfortunately, Jiang Kuanyu was very cautious. Although he seemed amicable, talking and laughing with the tenants, he actually maintained a distance and revealed no information.
Shu Yu had no choice but to return to the Manor and chatted with Little Yaâer.
However, the little girl had even less contact with Jiang Kuanyu. Apart from the two days around the time her grandfather was murdered, Little Yaâer had only seen him a few times over the years.
Regarding Jiang Kuanyu, this trip clearly yielded no fruitful results.
As it was getting late, Shu Yu decided to head back.
Zhou Qiao had already packed her baggage and left with them directly.
Little Zaozao was extremely excited sitting in the carriage. Having taken a nap earlier, she was well-rested and couldnât sit still, twisting and turning endlessly.
Zhou Qiao almost couldnât hold her, âItâs not like you havenât been on a carriage before, what are you so excited about?â
The old lady distracted Little Zaozao with a rag doll, smiling, âSheâs still young, even if sheâs been on a carriage before, she wouldnât remember.â
âAh ah ahâŠâ Little Zaozao reached out with chubby hands to grab it, and Zhou Qiao got pulled forward with her.
Shu Yu quickly reached out to catch them, conveniently taking this troublemaker into her arms.
Her strength was considerable, so holding Little Zaozao wasnât hard for her.
Zhou Qiao let out a breath, rubbed her arm, and said somewhat helplessly, âThis girl is full of energy. Grandmother, youâll have to take on quite a bit looking after her in the coming days.â
The old lady waved her hand, âWhat do you mean by taking on quite a bit? We have servants at home, if one takes her for a while, itâs enough time for you to be back in the evening. You know, when you return to Shangshi Village, just do as youâre told. Whatever your mother-in-law asks, just do it. She has her own ideas and doesnât like taking advice from others. Actually, Lanhuaâs marriage arrangements are almost done. Iâve already instructed enough on things, but your mother-in-law is demanding and always afraid something is missing.â
âI understand, Iâll just observe and learn. Itâs just as well, with some experience, Iâll know what to do when it comes to arranging my sistersâ marriages.â
When she mentioned the other girls in the Zhou family, the old lady asked with concern, âI remember your second sister is also old enough, just a year younger than Yu, right?â
âYes.â Zhou Qiao said with a bitter smile, âSo this time, Iâm not just going back to help my mother-in-law, I also want to ask my second sister what she thinks.â
âDoes she have someone in mind already?â
Zhou Qiao shook her head, âNo, a few days ago my father came to the Manor to see me and said that my second aunt wanted to introduce some relative from her side to my second sister. Grandmother, you know my second aunt, sheâs always focused on money, so Iâm really not comfortable leaving my second sisterâs marriage up to her.â
But Mother Zhou had already passed away, and the closest female relative was only her second aunt.
She was very eager to arrange this marriage.
However, Zhou Qiao was not willing. Her sisters were all well-behaved, so they didnât need to find a wealthy family. As long as the other party was hardworking, caring, and wouldnât mistreat them, it would be fine.
Her and her second auntâs standards were just different.
The old lady nodded, âYour sisterâs marriage indeed needs you to handle it yourself. So, do you have someone suitable in mind?â
Hearing this, Zhou Qiao pursed her lips and smiled, whispering, âI have a good opinion of Ruan Dali and Dazhuang.â
She had been living at the Manor, and the only people she knew were the staff at the workshops and the tenants next door. She wasnât familiar with anyone else.
