285 Chapter 285 cultivating feelings
Seeing Gu Nian’s shocked expression, Yao yunhua smiled and shook her head. She then invited Gu Nian to sit down in the pavilion and talk about it slowly.
Today, he had to sit down and talk slowly. He couldn’t finish talking while standing.
Some things had to be made clear, so as not to do it again.
Gu Nian wanted to see what else she could say.
There must be something wrong with these girls with cousins!
Cousin is a close relative, okay?
Yao yunhua’s maidservant poured tea for the two of them and then retreated to a place not far away to wait for orders.
“Have a taste, miss Gu.” Yao yunhua picked up her tea and took a sip before looking at Gu Nian.
“Miss Yao, if you have something to say, just say it!” Gu Nian said without touching the tea.
“I can see that eldest young lady Gu is also a frank person, so I will be clear. My family is planning to discuss my marriage with Yimu and Yifu.” After Yao yunhua finished speaking, she paused for a moment to observe Gu Nian’s expression.
Gu Nian was dumbfounded.’I’m not related to you. Today is the first time I’ve met you. Why are you telling me this?’
“I heard Yimu say that eldest young lady Gu likes my older Biao brother, but his status is a little lacking. My cousin and I are of equal social standing, that’s a marriage of kins.h.i.+p. I’ve been studying the women’s ring and women’s training since I was young, so I don’t really care about cousin taking a concubine. So, I want to get to know miss Gu first. In the future, we sisters can get along well, serve cousin together, solve his problems, and let cousin study hard.” Yao yunhua said.
She was unwilling, but she still had to say it.
Her mother had even allowed her father to take in his childhood sweetheart, concubine Mei. Everyone could help their husband and raise their children together. She felt that she could do it herself.
When her mother first married her father, she knew that her father had such a childhood sweetheart and accepted her graciously.
All these years, the position of the general’s wife had been very stable.
Gu Nian was stunned. “Miss Yao, did Madam Cheng really tell you that I like Cheng Rui? You’re planning to be Cheng Rui’s concubine?”
“Yimu only said that you like Biao older brother and have that kind of feeling towards Biao older brother, but did not say that you want to be a concubine. However, with your status, you can only be a concubine! My maternal grandfather’s family was the Minister of the current dynasty. Although my uncle-in-law’s family had declined, they were still a prestigious family during Emperor Jing’s era. The Cheng family has never married a woman from the countryside.” Yao yunhua sat up straight and said with an arrogant look.
“Ha!” Gu Nian was so angry that she laughed.
“Does young lady Gu not want to be a concubine?” Yao yunhua had an ‘as expected’ look on her face. big miss Gu, you should also face reality! Although your family can make money and don’t lack money, your status is there. Since you like your cousin, why are you so obsessed with status? I will definitely marry cousin, and I will also allow you to be my concubine. I still have to stay at Yimu’s house for a while, so why don’t we cultivate our sisterly relations.h.i.+p?”
“Ha!” Gu Nian chuckled again.
Yao yunhua frowned and was a little unhappy.”Why do you have to be so eccentric? I’m from the Western Garrison General’s residence, and in terms of status, I’m higher than you. I’ve been learning the four Arts since I was a child, and I’m more talented than you. What makes you think you can compare to me? I agree with Yimu’s suggestion, but I know that Yimu and cousin brother all like you and don’t want to argue with them on the matter of taking in concubines. What’s wrong? Do you think that with your little bit of money-making ability, you can get yourself the position of the first wife? Stop dreaming, this is absolutely impossible! You go and ask if uncle, aunt and Biao older brother are willing to let you be the wife or me be the wife?”
