After rebirth, she became the prince's favorite
Chapter 17 Your daughter can’t get married, but my daughter can?
"If you're embarrassed, your grandmother will help you choose a husband." The old lady couldn't suppress the impulse in her heart and rushed to say.
"What do you think of Xu Lingjia, the son of the vice minister of the Ministry of Justice? He is 28 years old this year and has three sons and four daughters. His wife died at the end of last year, and you would be the legal wife if you married him."
Yang Yufei's face was stiff. "Grandma, that man is too old, and he has so many children. I'm only sixteen, so my age is not appropriate."
"What's inappropriate about that? You're a woman, and he's a man."
Yang Yufei blurted out without thinking, "Then let grandma marry him."
The old lady cast a murderous gaze on her and shouted, "How dare you! If you keep talking nonsense, I will tear your mouth to pieces."
Yang Yufei begged for mercy quickly, "Grandma, don't be angry. I just want to say that you think the son of the Minister of Justice is good, and you have to tell me what is good about him."
"His family is willing to give a betrothal gift of 100,000 taels of silver, including jewelry, antique calligraphy and paintings, silks and satins, precious medicinal herbs, and valuable furniture and jade. Adding together, there are dozens of boxes, with a total value of more than 500,000 taels of silver."
The old lady's eyes lit up and her saliva was about to flow out.
"Yufei, Xu Lingjia is very rich. You will have a good life if you marry him. Most importantly, you won't have to give birth to a child, which will save you a lot of danger."
With so much betrothal gifts, if most of it were kept in the Yongning Marquis' Mansion, it would make the Mansion much richer than it is now.
The old lady wanted to press her head and agree on Yang Yufei's behalf. This marriage was too good to be true.
If Yang Yufei disagrees, she would be ungrateful!
"It sounds very good." She smiled with a hint of longing.
"So you agree? If you agree, grandma will send someone to inform the Xu family and ask them to choose a date to propose marriage and pay the engagement."
The old lady was so excited that her heart was about to jump out, "Yufei, grandma knows that you are a good child."
Yang Yufei changed the subject and said, "No, I don't agree."
He wanted to sell her for money, but she was not crazy enough to agree to such an unreasonable request.
"Are you kidding me, you little girl? I've been talking for a long time and my throat is about to smoke, but you still don't agree. I really want to smash your dog head." The old lady scolded her again.
No wonder the prince looks down on this little girl. She is stubborn and hard to fool.
"Grandma, don't be angry. I didn't agree because there are so many candidates for husbands on your table. I have to choose carefully. How can I agree to someone just by looking at him? I am a girl, so I have to be reserved."
The old lady's expression became slightly better. "What you said makes sense. Then I will introduce a few more to you."
"What about the second son of the Rong'an Marquis's family, Zhou Songyun? He is about your age, only twenty years old. The betrothal gift from his family is slightly less, only eighty thousand taels, but the Rong'an Marquis's family has many shops and farms, candy shops, pastry shops, and restaurants and teahouses. His family is extremely rich."
"After you get married, you can also subsidize your parents' home and your younger brothers and sisters."
"And this one, he's the son of an imperial merchant, rich enough to rival a country, but he's a little older, over 40. But he's more caring when he's older, an old man and a delicate wife, that's the perfect match."
As Yang Yufei listened to the old lady's introduction, she really wanted to spit on her face, and her fists were clenched so hard that they made a clattering sound.
"These young masters are so good, mother should let Yufei's aunt marry one of them. Our Yufei is a junior, so she won't compete with her aunt for a good husband."
"I will go and talk to the Marquis in a moment and ask my younger sister to marry one of the young talents. In this way, mother will have a satisfactory son-in-law, who is even closer than a grandson-in-law. When the time comes, both mother and younger sister will wake up with a smile of happiness in their dreams."
Zhou Yueran walked in with a frosty face and directly helped Yang Yufei to block the marriage.
"How could Shu'er marry these scums?" The old lady's face changed and twisted hideously in desperation.
Xu Lingjia had a bad temper. He would beat and kick his wives and concubines if he was not satisfied with them. The wife mentioned above was beaten to death.
Zhou Songyun is a dissolute young man who loves gambling and visiting brothels. Who knows if he will contract some strange or serious disease.
And there is the son of the imperial merchant, who has a peculiar habit in bed and is frail. He is already 45 years old and might die in a few years.
She must be out of her mind to marry her daughter into such a family, making her suffer.
"Yang Zishu can't marry a scum, but my daughter can marry him, right?"
Zhou Yueran's eyes were almost spitting fire.
"Mom, you are so biased that you are almost to the bone."
The old lady realized that she had said the wrong thing, and her face turned blue and purple, looking a little embarrassed.
However, her mind raced and she soon found a new excuse.
"Can Yufei and Shu'er be the same? Shu'er is unengaged, so she can find any good family she wants."
"But what about Yu Fei? The prince has already broken off the engagement because of her dislike for her. The emperor's decree also states that she cannot bear children. These are her shortcomings that are set in stone."
"It's good enough that Yu Fei can get married. What qualifications do you have to be picky?"
Zhou Yueran was filled with chills, and her voice sounded as if it had been soaked in ice water. "Don't bother me with my daughter's marriage. I will find a good family for Yufei and marry her off in style."
"Yufei, let's go."
The old lady looked at the mother and daughter and saw that they didn't take her seriously at all, and she shouted angrily behind them.
"My eldest daughter-in-law, don't be too proud. Marry Yufei while she's still young and beautiful. In two years, there won't be anyone willing to marry her."
Zhou Yueran didn't even turn her head, and her infuriating words reached the old lady's ears.
"Mom is so old, she can still get married if she wants to, not to mention Yufei, so don't worry about it."
The old lady was so angry that she almost vomited blood.
When her son comes back from court, she will make sure he gives his daughter-in-law a good lesson.
Nanny Song poured a cup of tea and comforted her, "Old Madam, please don't be angry. It's natural for Madam to feel sorry for the eldest daughter. However, the eldest daughter was broken off by the prince, so it is indeed difficult for her to marry a man of her dreams."
"You tried so hard to find her a rich husband, and it was for the sake of the happiness of the young lady in the second half of her life. They just don't understand the old lady's good intentions."
The old lady gnashed her teeth, "You are so kind, but you don't know how to be kind. Zhou Yueran is such a shrew. Does she think her daughter is a fairy? It's good enough for her to marry a rich man as his second wife."
Nanny Song continued to persuade her, "Madam is of noble birth, and she was pampered when she grew up. How could she have seen the fickleness of the world? When her family falls, she will have no one to rely on. Then she will know how sad it is for a woman to have no one to rely on."
"The problem is that her family is still prominent now. Who knows when it will fall? My son has suffered so much for marrying her."
"She has been married for more than ten years, but she can't even give birth to a son. The concubines in the mansion can't give birth to sons either. This vicious woman must have killed many illegitimate sons openly or secretly."
The old lady became angrier and angrier as she spoke. "It makes me angry to see a hen that just occupies a spot but doesn't lay eggs."
I really want my son to divorce this shrew.
