The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket! novel Chapter 674

Chapter 674: Chapter 605, Joy for Some, Sorrow for Others (Two-in-One Mega Chapter)_3

Upon hearing this, Madam Dong grew angry, "You child, your grandmother just spoke to you about this and you haven’t listened. The Marquis Residence of Zhaode is our equal in status, and their legitimate eldest daughter is the most suitable candidate to be your wife."

Dong Yuanxuan, "But I don’t like her."

Madam Dong immediately snorted, "In the matter of marriage, we must respect the wishes of our parents and the matchmaker’s words. A decent family’s daughter won’t even meet you until the marriage, so how can you speak of liking or not liking? Only daughters from families with lesser manners and etiquette are seen by others before the marriage."

Dong Yuanxuan immediately retorted, "Grandmother, how can you say that? I have met Miss Yan because our families are close."

Madam Dong’s expression softened, "I haven’t said anything against Miss Yan from the Yan Family, only that the legitimate eldest daughter from the Marquis Residence of Zhaode is truly the epitome of a noble lady. As for the daughters of local officials like her, they do lack in certain areas because of their background and perspective."

Seeing her grandson about to speak again, Madam Dong didn’t want to waste words and said directly, "Enough, there’s no need to talk further. I’ll tell you the plain truth, there’s no possibility between you and the eldest Miss Yan."

"Have you even considered her background? In this region of Zhongzhou, she’s merely the daughter of a Magistrate. How could she be a match for you, a son of a Marquis?"

Dong Yuanxuan looked incredulous, "Grandmother, didn’t you used to like Miss Yan very much?"

Madam Dong spoke indifferently, "I am quite fond of the girl. She is friends with Yun Yao, and for Yuan Yao’s sake, I will also give her some face. But just because I like many young ladies, does it mean they all should be married into our family?" she said, her tone softening.

"Yuanxuan, your grandmother and your parents would not harm you. Miss Yan from the Yan Family has a lively and cheerful disposition; such girls are very likable before marriage but it’s not necessarily the case after they marry."

"For a wife, you should marry someone gentle and virtuous. Think about it for yourself—if your wife were like Yun Yao, running out to the streets every two or three days, would you be happy?"

"Good child, listen to your grandmother. Put away your feelings for the eldest Miss Yan. If you truly like beautiful girls, how about I send you two maidens even prettier than her?"

Dong Yuanxuan frowned tightly, "Grandmother, do you really see me as so superficial?"

Madam Dong smiled, "Yes, my grandson is the most excellent indeed. But no matter how outstanding you are, you’re still a young lad. There’s no shame in liking beautiful girls."
