Chapter 1060: Chapter 1062: Mo Ziqi’s Marriage Proposal (2)

However, with the family’s relocation taking precedence, the plan to go to Lingbei had to be postponed. Otherwise, with guests filling the home, her absence would certainly have sparked gossip.

At this moment, she was sitting demurely in the back house, pretending to be the perfect little angel, conversing with the ladies and misses who had come to convey their congratulations.

"Girl Wei, is everything prepared for your grand wedding’s auspicious clothes?" It was Lady Liu, Duke Li Guo’s wife, who spoke. She was smiling tenderly at her future daughter-in-law, her face radiating with contentment.

Cai Wei feigned shyness and lowered her head, whispering, "Grandmother, the Internal Affairs Department has already prepared everything."

"Hmm, but you should check everything in advance just to be sure. It would be troublesome if there were any oversights!"

"Yes, Wei’er has remembered!"

Cai Wei replied softly. Having been in this world for over half a year, she had mastered the women’s tone of voice and knew when to act coy and when to appear gentle and understanding.

Seeing Cai Wei’s graceful and sensible demeanor, Lady Qiao, who managed the Hanlin Academy, laughed and said, "Speaking of which, in our Great Jin Dynasty, all the Empresses were initially the Prince’s consort before being promoted to Empress. Our Miss Wei’er being directly made Empress is truly unprecedented!"

Old Madame laughed and said, "Yes, indeed. The Emperor is eager to abdicate, and the Prince is eager to marry. Neither father nor son is willing to yield, pushing them both into this situation!"

The wife of Yingtian Prefecture’s Yamen, Lady Zhao Hongwang, said with a laugh, "Grandmother, your family truly has one happy event after another. Just last month you had a new granddaughter-in-law, and this month you’re to have another external granddaughter-in-law. I heard that your grandson Young Master Zi Qi has also fixed his marriage with the Second Miss Mu Family. It won’t be long before another celebration is due!"

Upon hearing this, Fei’er shyly lowered her head and fiddled with the handkerchief in her hands, pretending not to have heard.

Old Madame chuckled, "Fei’er is still young. It’s still early for her to marry. However, at home, we’re currently discussing it. We’re thinking of coming over to finalize the bridal price and set the date soon, whether it be next year or the year after, we’ll get these children’s matters settled!"

Second Lady Bai laughed and said, "Originally, Grandmother intended to wait until Fei’er was older before arranging this, but recently, I vaguely heard that someone can’t wait any longer. A certain Grandmother, not wanting to give up the bridal price, has started gathering it herself. If I may say so, Grandmother, if you keep holding off, you might just end up facing some complaints!"

Grandmother laughed, "You mischievous Monkey, always spouting nonsense. I haven’t heard anything about Master Qi arranging his own bridal price."

Lady of Marquis Jian’an also laughed, "Mother-in-law, in my opinion, Zi Qi is indeed not such an indifferent person. It’s probably some elder not behaving properly, making up stories about the younger generation to have some fun!"

"Oh dear, mother-in-law, you’re really wronging me here. Don’t believe me? Ask your eldest daughter-in-law if Zi Qi hasn’t secretly arranged something for the bridal price himself?"

Turning to Lady Wu, she continued, "Eldest Sister-in-law, please, speak some fair words. Has that boy Zi Qi not secretly been gathering things to marry a daughter-in-law?"

Lady Wu burst into laughter and said, "When I get back, I’ll tell Zi Qi everything you’ve said today. If Zi Qi finds out that his second aunt has been slandering him in front of his fiancée’s mother, let’s see how he looks at you afterward!"

Upon hearing this, Lady Bai hastily begged for mercy, "Don’t, eldest sister-in-law! Zi Qi is already so cold. If he finds out his second aunt has been speaking ill of him behind his back, wouldn’t he freeze me to death when he sees me? Ah, it’s tough to tell the truth nowadays. Alright, let’s pretend I didn’t say anything. Just ignore my words just now..."
