Daughter's Portable Space

Chapter 516

Luo Yunrui and the old lady of the Qin family looked at each other, seeing what Qin Shaotian meant, did they actually plan to make a marriage arrangement today?
After a little hesitation, Luo Yunrui didn't object, not to mention that she was confident that Qin Shaotian could not be unfavorable to Jie Ge'er.Moreover, Brother Jie is the eldest son of the Qin family, and the wife he will marry in the future will be the future mistress of the house. Luo Yunrui thought that with Qin Shaotian's temperament, it is impossible for him to be arrogant in such a matter.But the old lady of the Qin family was a little impatient: "Shaotian, are you blaming us for not taking Brother Jie to heart?"

Qin Shaotian smiled wryly, how could he blame his mother and wife?It is true that he cares about Jie Geer very much, but no matter whether it is his mother or his wife, the love for Jie Geer is absolutely no less than him.Moreover, even though it is generally earlier in the capital to get engaged to their own children, it is not as early as this.Under normal circumstances, girls usually start seeing each other when they are eleven or twelve years old, and they don't get married until they are thirteen or fourteen at the earliest.And for boys, it will be even later, like Luo Yunrui's natal family is very important to the only son, Brother Rui, and they only started to see each other after Brother Rui was named on the gold list. At that time, Brother Rui It has been two years since my son reached Ji.

"Mother is overthinking, I just... Although Brother Jie looks young, he is the eldest son of the family after all. I thought that if I settled down earlier, I could sharpen his temper."

Regarding Qin Shaotian's explanation, the old lady of the Qin family was not willing to accept it at all.

That's right, Brother Jie is the eldest son of the Qin family, but wasn't Qin Shaotian back then?Except for the baby relatives that were casually mentioned in the earliest days, the Qin family didn't even think about these things before Qin Shaotian and Ji.After all, in terms of the family background of the Qin family, it is not difficult to find a daughter-in-law.If the heirs are more self-sufficient and have fame and fame, then there will be no problem.Besides, early marriage is popular in the north, but the old lady of the Qin family is a southerner through and through.

Seeing that the old lady of the Qin family was completely unmoved, Qin Shaotian could only cast his eyes on Luo Yunrui helplessly.

From the very beginning, Qin Shaotian understood that the biggest resistance to this matter came from the old lady of the Qin family, not Luo Yunrui.It's not that the old lady of the Qin family doesn't trust him, but that Luo Yunrui is relatively more open-minded and not as stubborn.

After receiving Qin Shaotian's gaze, Luo Yunrui thought for a while before persuading her: "Mother, Shaotian also cares about Brother Jie, so you can rest assured that he will not harm Brother Jie. Why don't we listen to what Shaotian has to say? What happened."

"Hmph, it's as if the old woman like me doesn't care about her grandson!" The old lady of the Qin family said bitterly, not targeting Luo Yunrui but Qin Shaotian, the culprit.In her opinion, this marriage cannot be rushed, and there will be plenty of time to see each other in the future, and she also hopes that her son and daughter-in-law can listen to her opinions on the marriage of the grandchildren.

But now?

Qin Shaotian coughed lightly, he also understood that this matter was a bit sudden today.But he really can't be blamed for this, if it hadn't happened suddenly, he wouldn't have made such a bad move.

"Mother, Rui'er, didn't I go to my friend's house two days ago? My friend is my classmate. When I was studying in the capital, I got a lot of care from him..." Qin Shaotian said eloquently. It's a sad story.His classmate friend's surname is Lan, which is a relatively rare surname in the capital, and the Lan family's population is not prosperous.The Lan family was originally a military commander, but in Master Lan's life, he has lost his official career, and the reason is very simple, just because Master Lan has been in extremely poor health since he was a child, and he cannot become a general at all.

There are few descendants in the Lan family, the old man has only one uncle and uncle left in his life, and the old master Lan has only him left in his life, and then there is only one only daughter.

"Actually, to tell you the truth, I was there to prepare for my friend's funeral two days ago."

As soon as these words came out, the old lady of the Qin family almost jumped up: "What did you say? It's already the twelfth lunar month!"

"I know it's the twelfth lunar month, but it's not something else. You can choose a date. The Lan family doesn't have any relatives, and the only elder is still at the border. Brother Lan's only daughter is only five years old. And I can't bear the heavy responsibility. Brother Lan thinks he was amazing and talented back then, but now he is terminally ill. I saw him like this, and I couldn't let him go, so I had to accept this matter."

Hearing that Master Lan hadn't passed away, the old lady of the Qin family looked better, but it didn't take long for her face to sink again.

It is impossible for the old lady of the Qin family not to know what kind of temperament her son is.Since Qin Shaotian is already preparing for his funeral, he still plans to make an appointment with Brother Jie's marriage today, which means that Mr. Lan really has no cure.On weekdays, the old lady of the Qin family might not be so angry, but seeing that it is already a small New Year's Eve, if that old master Lan drags it into the first month of next year, Qin Shaotian will definitely go to help, it is indeed a mess unlucky.Even though that old master Lan passed away within two days, it is not a matter of a day or two to make arrangements for the funeral, and it is very likely that it will be delayed until the New Year's Eve.

No matter what kind of possibility it is, it is not what the old lady of the Qin family would like to see. Her temperament is actually similar to that of Luo Yunrui. If she has to bear the responsibility, even if she feels a little bit of complaint in her heart, she will still do it.But if it is not his responsibility, he is very unwilling to get involved in these things.

Luo Yunrui looked at the face of the old lady of the Qin family, lowered her head and thought for a while, and soon understood the old lady of the Qin family's concerns.It's just that although she doesn't really believe in ghosts and gods, some things can be avoided or it's better to avoid them.Besides, according to what Qin Shaotian said just now, I am afraid that the marriage he wants to make for Brother Jie is the five-year-old Miss Lan.

"Shaotian, let's not talk about Mr. Lan for now, but you plan to make Miss Lan and Brother Jie get engaged?"

"No! I absolutely do not agree!" The old lady of the Qin family put aside the matter of being unlucky or not in an instant. After all, there is no basis for saying unlucky, at least compared with Jie Geer's lifelong happiness, it is far worse. There are many: "The eldest daughter of the bereaved mother will not marry, let alone the entire family will die!"

These words were a bit harsh, Qin Shaotian's face froze, and he couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed.Luo Yunrui sighed silently, it was true that the old lady of the Qin family cared about Brother Jie, but she shouldn't provoke Qin Shaotian at this stall.

"Mother, we can talk slowly if we have something to say, don't worry." After comforting the old lady of the Qin family, Luo Yunrui looked at Qin Shaotian: "Shaotian, if there is no one in the Lan family to take care of the young Miss Lan, then out of friendliness , our family is naturally duty-bound. But do you think it’s too hasty to get married to Brother Jie? Brother Jie will only be nine years old after the Chinese New Year, and maybe you can barely see what he will look like when he grows up. But Miss Lan He is only five years old, but this five-year-old child is uncertain."

Luo Yunrui's soft voice at least made Qin Shaotian calm down, but Qin Shaotian himself knew that he was a little impulsive this time.It's just that Mr. Lan has a very good friendship with him. In the past two years, things happened one after another in the Qin family, and Mr. Lan never stood idly by.Now that something happened to the Lan family, Qin Shaotian felt that he couldn't let it go regardless of emotion or reason.

Seeing Qin Shaotian bowing his head in thought, Luo Yunrui quickly winked at the old lady of the Qin family.This Qin Shaotian is a typical slicker, if you follow his wishes to persuade him, then it will be fine.If you must fight against him, even if he doesn't insist at first, he will have to fight you in the end.

It's not that the old lady of the Qin family doesn't know Qin Shaotian's temperament, but because of the sudden incident, her tone became a little rushed. Seeing Luo Yunrui's wink at her, the old lady of the Qin family finally came to her senses: "Shaotian, Rui'er You’re right, there’s no need to rush this matter. I think we should take Miss Lan to our house first? She’s only five years old now, and she’s still an ignorant age, so it’s a little inappropriate to decide so early.”

Qin Shaotian pondered for a while, and his tone softened a bit: "I didn't have to settle down immediately, but Brother Lan is already dying of illness but has been holding on. In the past two days, I have helped him deal with a lot of family affairs , and also found that the Lan family really has no relatives to entrust. Brother Lan is quite open about money matters, but he can let go of his young only daughter anyway."

The situation of the Lan family is indeed a bit embarrassing, but this marriage, especially the eldest son's marriage, let alone the family background, at least the children should have better fate.Even if Luo Yunrui trusted Qin Shaotian again, she couldn't gamble Jie Ge'er's life.

Seeing that the room fell silent for a while, Qin Shaotian's embarrassment became more serious, but Qin Shaotian couldn't let go of Master Lan who was looking forward to the Lan Mansion and only waiting for his good news.

"Mother, Rui'er, I'm selfish this time, okay? Brother Lan... He has been kind to me first, besides, the tutoring of the Lan family is very good, and I can't do it with those small families. They are comparable. Although Miss Lan is still very young, she already has the temperament of a lady."

Luo Yunrui doesn't want to judge Miss Lan too much. In her opinion, even if Miss Lan is really beautiful, so what?For a five-year-old child, it is really hard to say what kind of person she will become in the future.Besides, no matter what kind of person Miss Lan is, it is always a fact that her parents died, right?And no siblings yet...

"Shaotian, didn't you just say that the Lan family still has an uncle?"

"Well, that uncle is Brother Lan's cousin. He is not very old, maybe in his forties. It's just that he has never married, and now he has been at the border. Even if he asks to resign and return to the capital, I'm afraid I can't take care of Miss Lan either. Not to mention the relatives nearby, but if there is a little room, Brother Lan won't ask me to leave alone."
