Chapter 140: Chapter 140: Sending the Granddaughter to be a Concubine
Seeing that all three sisters had entered, Old Lady Hua slapped the table and glared at the Yang Ruoqiu sisters, "You two must be really full and bored to pick on your sister like that. Your second uncle just got into trouble, instead of taking pity on your sister and looking after her, you take every chance to belittle her. What’s the matter with you?"
Having said that to the two sisters, she saw the smug look on Yang Lichun’s face, but she couldn’t bring herself to scold her in the end.
Yang Xiayun, who was hiding in the corner eavesdropping, rolled her eyes but didn’t leave, continuing to listen.
In the room, Yang Lichun saw that Old Lady Hua hadn’t scolded her, just blamed the two sisters, and her eyes turned, her heart naturally filled with glee and schadenfreude. However, her focus was not here anymore, so she didn’t poke Old Lady Hua to further reprimand the two sisters.
Instead, she walked up to Old Lady Hua in an especially obedient manner, pulled at Old Lady Hua’s arm, and said sweetly, "Grandma, I want to ask you for a favor."
"What is it?" Among her three granddaughters, this granddaughter had the best appearance, and because of the relationship with her second son, she naturally favored her more. Therefore, she showed a pleasant face to Yang Lichun. Seeing this, the mother of the first branch of the family gave several cold snorts of discontent but didn’t say anything due to Old Lady Hua’s presence.
"Grandma, I like Brother An. Can you help me talk to my cousin? She’s Brother An’s mother, and she must have a say in this. Hmph, I can’t let that little hoof Yang Chuxia have him. There’s no way she could steal Brother An from me." As Yang Lichun spoke, she sneakily looked at Old Lady Hua’s expression, and when she saw that there was nothing amiss, she continued, "With that little hoof’s bad reputation, if Brother An doesn’t want her, I don’t see how she’ll ever get married. By then, an old spinster like her will even affect the marriages of the brothers in the third branch of the family. I’d like to see if the third branch will still be like they are now, and if their aunt and uncle will still protect that little cheap hoof."
Yang Lichun’s plan had to be said to be quite far-sighted, and it seemed to really strike the root of the problem. However, she had consistently overlooked one point: no matter how bad Yang Chuxia’s reputation was, it was still better than hers. And why was she so sure that Yang Chuxia couldn’t get married?
"Chun’er, do you really like Brother An?" Old Lady Hua saw Yang Lichun say this, her eyes flickering. It had to be said that Old Lady Hua was not a decent person herself. If it were any other family, a girl who was only twelve or thirteen years old starting to think about men, let alone speaking so blatantly, would probably have been beaten with a stick long ago.
But in her case, she was all smiles and kind. Even Ms. Liu and her daughters couldn’t stand this and looked at her with intense contempt.
"Grandma, I like him. Brother An is very good-looking."
"There are so many good-looking young masters from rich families. My granddaughter is so beautiful that she’ll definitely marry someone even better in the future." As for Ye Zi’an, that little guy was not a good catch. Hmph, mixing with the third branch wasn’t good either. Moreover, how could a lame man match her beautiful granddaughter? Her son’s fortunes might not be something she could rely on for now, but her granddaughter still had some prospects. She couldn’t let such good looks go to waste.
Then she heard her say, "Chun’er, what kind of future could that lame Brother An have? There are so many young masters from rich families who look better than him. We don’t want that lame man. Just listen to your grandma, I’ve already planned a good destination for you. Don’t worry, I’ll guarantee that you’ll be a mistress in a rich family. Although you’ll be a concubine, there will be endless wealth and glory for you to enjoy."
