Chapter 671: Chapter 671

Mrs. Wei wanted her younger daughter to marry into a wealthy family just like her elder daughter.
Chen Meng’er turned her head and happened to see Wei Hongjuan standing beside her. Her face was slightly red as she looked at Madam Qu with anticipation. It seemed that it was not only Mrs. Wei who had such thoughts. Even Wei Hongjuan’s younger sister was thinking of marrying into a wealthy family just like her sister.
Madam Qu hadn’t expected that her in-laws would have such thoughts. Her in-laws were a little too naive. Did she think that the upper-class circles in the capital were like her family and didn’t value status?
As her eldest daughter had married into the Qu family, the aristocratic ladies in the upper-class circles didn’t reject her and gave her face because of her relation to the Qu family.
Mrs. Wei was not aware of the unspoken rules in the upper-class circles, but Wei Hongjuan knew all about it. Previously, when her mother had spoken to her at home, she had used the excuse that she did not have a man suitable for her younger sister’s age as an excuse. However, she had not expected her mother to actually mention this to her mother-in-law. She was very embarrassed. “Mom, what nonsense are you spouting?”!!
“How am I spouting nonsense? Your mother-in-law knows more people than I do, she definitely has someone suitable for your sister.” Mrs. Wei glared at her eldest daughter. Her eldest daughter was a useless person. She had hoped that after her eldest daughter became the second daughter-in-law of the Qu family she would help out the family. It would be best if she could find a good job for her younger brother.
However, after her eldest daughter married into the Qu family, she could not make any decisions at all. Every time, if it were not for her asking, this eldest daughter of hers would not take the initiative to do anything. Not to mention finding a good job for her younger brother in the future.
Mrs. Wei saw that her eldest daughter was unreliable, so she set her sights on the younger daughter.
And her younger daughter’s personality was more similar to hers. She was also ambitious. She also had her heart set on marrying into a wealthy family and becoming the young lady of a wealthy family.
“Mrs. Wei, I probably won’t be able to help you with this. You also know that I’m old and my health isn’t good. I usually don’t go out for a stroll. Today, it’s also because of my granddaughter that I came out for a stroll. Therefore, I really don’t have any boys around the same age as your younger daughter. Of course, I will help you keep an eye out. If there are any suitable ones for your little daughter, I will ask Hongjuan to tell you.” Madam Qu said with a smile, she didn’t change her expression.
When Mrs. Wei heard this, she wasn’t very happy in her heart. However, she was too embarrassed to lecture Madam Qu like she was lecturing her elder daughter. She could only reveal a stiff smile but refused to continue listening to Madam Qu’s words.
Wei Hongjuan was embarrassed now. She looked at Madam Qu. “Mother, where are you going to eat tonight? Why don’t we eat outside? I know that there’s a very delicious private place not far from here.” Wei Hongjuan wanted to change the topic and ease the atmosphere.
“There’s no need. Meng’er and I will go back for dinner. Hubby is looking forward to this girl going back for dinner. At noon, he started to make trouble and prepare the dishes that Meng’er likes to eat.” Madam Qu also she changed the topic.
As she said that, Madam Qu turned to look at Chen Meng’er. “Oh right, girl, you have to stay at home tonight. Otherwise, Grandpa and Grandma will be unhappy.”
“It looks like if I don’t stay at home tonight, Grandpa will fall out with me.” Chen Meng’er smiled and echoed.
“That’s right. If you don’t stay at home, I reckon that your Grandpa will have to go to the Green Gang to fight people.” After Madam Qu said this to Chen Meng’er, she turned to Wei Hongjuan and her family and said, “Hongjuan, it’s rare for you to hang out with your mother and sister. You can accompany them to have dinner today. It’s fine even if you come back late.” After Madam Qu finished speaking to Wei Hongjuan, she said to Wei Hongjuan’s mother, “Mrs. Wei, look, it’s getting late. My hubby must have been waiting anxiously for a long time. I’ll take my leave first. When I’m free, we can all come out for a gathering.” Madam Qu’s words sounded like a polite dismissal.
