Chapter 1098: Chapter 1097: Seize the Opportunity 7

Actually, among Lu Jiang’s nephews, the one most sought-after when it came to marriage was Lu Tianjun.

With a white coat, a fluttering red flag, and four wheels plus a scalpel.

With the connections and support of his uncle, how could Lu Tianjun worry about not having a bright future? Even if he didn’t reach his uncle’s level, he would be an officer of some sort. The salary and benefits were beyond discussion, and marrying him would mean a lifetime of bliss.

Unfortunately, Lu Tianjun wasn’t at home, and there had been recent rumors that Lu Tianjun had already found someone, leaving countless families secretly wringing their hands in frustration.

Guan Cheng was also not bad, although he wasn’t a doctor in a hospital, he was a well-known good doctor across ten miles and eight villages. Marrying him would be no disadvantage, and it would still link one to the Lu Family.

Wu Lijuan was smitten with Guan Cheng, and the Wu Family was eying the influence of the Lu Family.

They fully expected the Lu Family to be grateful for their appearance when Guan Cheng’s reputation was in ruins. Wang Daniu thought so too, never expecting that Feng Qingxue would still flatly refuse, with utter decisiveness.

Wang Daniu became anxious, "Why is this?"

This matchmaker wasn’t satisfactory, and that matchmaker didn’t work out; were her standards really too high?

Although Wang Daniu wasn’t at her parents’ home, she was privy to most of the village’s affairs. After all, villagers frequently visited the supply and marketing cooperative to sell some agricultural and sideline products, and they would often engage in long conversations upon encountering each other.

Feng Qingxue said indifferently, "Back when Wang Lingzhi was framing our family and Guan Cheng, many people were present and heard it. She said that a classmate named Wu Lijuan told her to do it."

"What?" Wang Daniu was shocked.

"Even though the commune official conveyed the results of the subsequent investigation and stated that Wu Lijuan didn’t tell her to do that, Wu Lijuan did indeed mention her own cousin’s matter in front of Wang Lingzhi. It seemed that her cousin was interested in someone from the city. When the young man didn’t want to marry her, she falsely accused him of indecency, and, for the sake of his reputation, he had no choice but to marry her, swallowing his pride," Feng Qingxue continued.

Having said this, Feng Qingxue added, "So we believe that Wu Lijuan had hinted and prompted Wang Lingzhi to do such a thing. Big sister, tell me, would we dare to bring such a girl into our family?"

Wang Daniu frowned, "Lijuan is the only girl in three generations of her family; how could she have a cousin?"

"Wu Lijuan doesn’t have a cousin?" Feng Qingxue asked.

"Yes, she doesn’t. Lijuan has no cousin, so how could such a thing happen?" After Wang Daniu replied, she hurriedly said, "It must be Wang Lingzhi spouting nonsense. She framed your family and Guan Cheng; can her words be trusted? She must be slandering Lijuan."

However, Feng Qingxue countered, "If the story was made up by Wu Lijuan, then that further highlights her malicious intent in saying such things!"

Wang Daniu, upon hearing this, was left speechless.

"Big sister, I appreciate you taking the time to come here. Please convey our response to the Wu Family and ask them to choose another groom. Just say... it’s still the same as my initial statement, our Guan Cheng currently has no intention of starting a family."

"Are you really being so stubborn?" Wang Daniu asked with furrowed brows.

Feng Qingxue smiled lightly, "A gentleman’s word is a heavy as nine tripods. Since Acheng has said so, he will certainly uphold it. If we don’t meet the right person, we’re in no hurry to form a revolutionary family with someone else. Better be short-handed than have something shoddy! Besides, Acheng will only truly step into his twenties after his birthday in half a month, so what’s the rush? It’s not too late to talk about marriage in a few years."

Lu Jiang only met her when he was twenty-eight. If he had married very early, how could he have found such a good match in her? Feng Qingxue rested her chin on her hand, suddenly becoming as self-absorbed as her daughter.
