Chapter 621: Chapter 565, Trouble Arises_1

As Beijing simmered with undercurrents due to the conflicts on the Northern Frontier, Ningmen Prefecture was also far from quiet.

At the beginning of April, the wife of Governor Guo arrived at Ningmen Prefecture without a sound and, after getting the residence in order, she planned to host a banquet for the officials of Ningmen Prefecture on the twentieth of April.

“The wedding date has been set for next year.”

When Daohua arrived at Old Madam Yan’s quarters, she happened to overhear her mother discussing the marriage of her elder brother and the second daughter of the Han Family. Seeing the joyous faces of her grandmother and her mother, she couldn’t help but smile as well.

No matter what, having a new bride enter the family was always something to look forward to and be happy about.

Old Madam Yan, seeing Daohua, beckoned her to sit by her side with a big smile, holding her hand joyfully, “Next year you’ll have a sister-in-law, are you happy?”

Daohua said with a chuckle, “Grandmother, why should I be the one to be happy? It’s my elder brother who should be.”

Madam Li glared over with a smile, “What, you’re not happy for your elder brother?”

Daohua quickly replied, “Happy, of course I’m happy.”

Soon after, the Sun Family, Wu Family, and the other three girls in the family arrived.

As soon as Madam Sun arrived, she said, “Big sister-in-law, what did you call us here for? Is there another family hosting a banquet?”

Madam Li gave her a look, feeling somewhat weary.

Her sister-in-law set her sights too high, only considering girls from families of fifth or sixth-rank officials. However, those families had their own considerations. Although the Yan Family had not yet divided their household, Wenjie was still the nephew of the old master and would not be neglected.

But, in the eyes of most families, with three sons under the old master’s knee and considering that the Yan Family came from a scholar-farmer background with insufficient family foundation, resources at home would naturally favor their own sons, leaving little to help the nephews.

This was clear to all families. Marriage was about the alliance of two families. If other families saw no value in the second branch, without the need for benefits exchange, they naturally would not agree to marriage alliances.

Yet, for all these, the sister-in-law lacked self-awareness completely.

Madam Li sighed internally. Now that the second brother had returned, she hoped he would be more clear-headed. If he was like the sister-in-law, it would be a long wait for Wenjie to settle his marriage matters.
