Han Xinran glanced at her eldest sister, who always managed to win the elders’ favor when at home. Sometimes, it was clearly her fault, but after she manipulated the situation, it seemed as if others were to blame.
People had already arrived, and while Han Xinran felt uncomfortable, she still led the Han sisters and Fang sisters to Old Madam Yan’s courtyard.
Before the Han sisters arrived, Yan Siyu had already come with Yang Xiujun and the Yang sisters. They were now chatting and laughing with Old Madam Yan, Madam Li, Wu Family, and the four Daohua sisters.
Seeing Han Xinman, Old Madam Yan and Madam Li were momentarily surprised. Remembering the conduct of the Han Family, the smiles on their faces faded a bit.
Indeed, one could discern others’ attitudes towards oneself through minor everyday interactions.
Han Xinman, bringing the Fang girls without so much as a greeting, clearly didn’t hold the Yan Family in regard.
If she were to treat other influential families this way, she surely wouldn’t dare.
Han Xinran immediately noticed the displeasure of the old lady and her mother-in-law and felt bitterness in her heart, compelled to step forward and explain.
Daohua, sitting aside, watched this scene unfold, saying nothing but smiling at Yang Xiujun, "I heard that cousin Xiujun has been betrothed to the Third Young Master from Taichang Temple’s household?"
Yang Xiujun nodded shyly.
Daohua then turned to Yan Yihuan with a smile, "That’s quite a coincidence, Yihuan is also betrothed. You two can get together and discuss how to embroider your wedding dresses."
Yang Xiujun immediately looked towards Yan Yihuan, "Really? Which family is cousin Yihuan betrothed to?"
Yan Yihuan shyly glanced at Daohua, too embarrassed to say.
Daohua smiled and said, "It’s the eldest legitimate son of Minister Yu of the Ministry of Revenue, already a juren even though he just came of age."
Yang Xiujun immediately congratulated Yan Yihuan with a smile. The Minister of Revenue’s position as a Fifth-rank official was certainly a good match for cousin Yihuan, whose father and brothers were still commoners.
"Do your uncle and aunt know yet?"
Daohua nodded, "Yihuan’s marriage is naturally something we’ve informed Uncle and Aunt about. Her second brother and sister-in-law have already set off for the capital, and as soon as they arrive to meet the You family, the agreement can be finalized."
