"Okay, mother will just let me know when the time is determined."
He couldn't hide from this situation, and Qi Wang didn't want to hide at all. Anyway, it was just a knife to extend his head, and it was also a knife to shrink his head. As long as he didn't marry a wife, Qin Minyan would never give up.
But whether he wants to marry or not is up to Qi Wang. If he doesn't want to, no one in this world can force him.
Qin Minyan didn't know this. Seeing that Qi Huan nodded and agreed without any resistance, Qin Minyan's eyes lit up and she felt that her son was enlightened. After all, he also felt lonely and desolate. Find a wife to warm the house.
"You don't have to worry about this. Mom will take care of everything. I will tell you when I set the time."
These things are all handled by women. Qi Wang just needs to make sure that he can come to participate. Qin Minyan took Qi Yutong and Zhang Ma to discuss with great interest, from how to decorate the banquet hall to how to write invitations and what to use. All these patterns were taken into consideration, and the three of them were discussing in a lively manner, but Qi Wang was pushed aside.
After talking for a long time, Qin Minyan inadvertently raised her head and found Qi Wang still standing there. She asked with some surprise: "Why are you still here? Go back quickly, you have nothing to do here."
Qi Wang: "..."
Is this burning bridges? Is he being disliked?
However, Qi Wang didn't say anything. Seeing that the women didn't notice his presence, as if they had forgotten that there was a living person like him in the room, he touched his nose and turned around silently to leave.
Forget it, this is not his stage, he'd better give up the space.
***
At this time, the yard of the third concubine was also a lively scene. The third concubine Li Waner looked at the new dress that her daughter Qi Yuwei had put on. She smiled from ear to ear and praised repeatedly: "Sure enough, people rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles. Look at my daughter, with this figure and this appearance, you are lucky to have followed my appearance. She is beautiful. If you go out, wouldn't the young talents in Jinling City be attracted to you and not be able to leave? Are you moving?"
Li Wan'er was born in the prostitute, but she was a brothel and did not take on customers. When she was first listed, she was bought by Qi Yuanhao. However, although she only had a man like Qi Yuanhao, she grew up in a brothel after all. Ever since elementary school, I have been trying to please men. Every move and gesture is charming and seductive.
She gave birth to a pair of twins, a boy and a girl, for Qi Yuanhao. She thought she still had some status in the Qi family's yard. She was so good at seducing Qi Yuanhao that he spent more than half of the month in her yard. , in this family, she spent more time seeing Qi Yuanhao than Qin Minyan, the principal wife. If it weren't for Qi Yuanhao's big family, she probably wouldn't even pay attention to Qin Minyan, the eldest wife.
"Mom, please stop praising me like that. I'm embarrassed. How can you praise someone like that? How can I be as beautiful as you say?"
Qi Yuwei touched the soft fabric of her clothes. Although she was very happy that Li Waner praised her so much, she also knew that her appearance was not one third of Li Waner's. Her mother was charming and charming, and her body was full of feminine beauty. , let alone her father, even she would be attracted to Li Waner sometimes and couldn't take her eyes away.
In this family, although the eldest wife is also good-looking, her beauty is too ordinary. She is just right for everyone's wife, but she lacks some charm. Although the second aunt is also beautiful, she has a graceful and graceful appearance. She is a typical example. The Jiangnan woman is gentle, attentive and considerate, which may make people feel fresh in a short period of time, but over time, she will always become boring. After all, it is just porridge and side dishes, which cannot be compared to Li Waner's delicate and flamboyant appearance, which makes people want to stop.
But it is a pity that Qi Yuwei did not inherit her mother's good looks. She is more than beautiful, but lacks a bit of color. It is okay to be a Xiaojiabiyu, but not like her mother.
In this family, only Qi Yutong's appearance is the most outstanding. Her mother is obviously the most mediocre in appearance, but for some reason, the daughter she gave birth to is the most outstanding among the three sisters.
She is extremely beautiful, but not coquettish, and does not have the frivolity of her mother. People can tell at a glance that this is a flower of wealth raised by a wealthy family, rather than something that can be picked casually.
Thinking of Qi Yutong in the big room, Qi Yuwei's eyes showed a face as charming as a hibiscus in clear water. She was originally happy because of her mother's praise, but she couldn't arouse any interest at this time.
"Forget it, no matter how good the clothes are, so what? I can't just be someone else's foil. Such clothes look beautiful on me, but as long as Qi Yutong is around, people will never see me."
Qi Yuwei and Qi Heng are twins. She is already twenty-two years old this year and has already reached the age to get married. In fact, with the family background of the Qi family, although these young masters in Jinling City can not choose at will, they want to marry one If you are the right person, it won't be that difficult.
But Qi Yuwei was raised by Li Waner since she was a child and has a somewhat high-minded view. She doesn't want those who are worthless and incompetent, doesn't want those who aren't good enough, doesn't want those with a bad family background, doesn't want those with bad family background, doesn't want those who are flirtatious...
After all this picking and choosing, there are only a few people that she can like, but those people either have made an engagement early, or they are interested in her little sister Qi Yutong. The people she can like can't see her. She falls in love with her, and she doesn't like it when she falls in love with her.
After so many years of picking and choosing, she is now left alone. Twenty-two is already an old girl. Qi Yuwei, who had no sense of urgency at first, is now starting to become anxious.
She comes from a girl's family, and the flowering period of women is very short. If she doesn't get married as soon as possible, she may have to choose among the crooked melons and cracked dates.
Li Waner dressed her up in such a hurry because she wanted her to find a rich husband as soon as possible and marry her off to become a rich wife.
Seeing that her daughter's mood had dropped, Li Waner couldn't help but feel distressed. She grabbed Qi Yuwei's hand and pulled her to sit down next to her.
"Weiwei, you can't underestimate yourself. You must know that a woman's self-confidence and pride are also a way to improve her beauty. If you doubt yourself, your beauty will be greatly reduced..."
Before Li Waner finished speaking, she was interrupted by Qi Yuwei: "Qi Yuyi is confident and proud, but is it useful? Hasn't it been overshadowed by Qi Yutong?"
After hearing this, Li Waner choked, but because she could not let her daughter be so depressed and unable to cheer up, she cheered up and said: "You can't say that, there are thousands of men in this world. Of course, not all men appreciate Qi Yutong's beauty. There are always people who like you, so you have to be more confident."
However, Qi Yuwei couldn't muster any energy. She said dejectedly: "Mom, what you said is indeed very reasonable, but the people I like like Qi Yutong. This is an indisputable fact. Others are fine, but I and I Qi Yutong is a sister, and people always compare us. I am not as good as her in appearance, and my background is not as good as hers, so how can I compare? "
After Li Wan'er heard her daughter's words, her expression froze for a moment, and her expression became a little more dejected.
Regardless of her usual pride and wantonness, she thinks her status is quite high, but in fact she also knows very well in her heart that her background is her Achilles heel. She praises herself very highly, but those ladies who are more particular about it But they didn't look down on her at all, who was born in a lower class, and even Qi Yuwei was dragged down by her.
Li Waner asked herself, and felt that Qi Yuwei was better than Qi Yutong in everything except her appearance. Qi Yutong only had a face that brought disaster to the country and the people, but there was no other connotation at all. If it weren't for her identity, , and no one would want to marry her home to be the first wife.
For these wealthy families, there are too many things to pay attention to. People who have too good looks can be just a toy, but if they want to be the first wife, it is absolutely impossible - too good looks will appear frivolous. Let me ask. Which man would want his first wife to be lusted after?
It's just that it's hard for Li Waner to say these words to her daughter. She doesn't blame Qi Yutong for what he just said. She knows that Qi Yutong doesn't mean what he says. After all, she is already twenty-two years old this year. Girls are already old at this age. Those serious young men The buddies have almost been decided, and there are fewer and fewer suitable men. If it drags on any longer, they might have to look outside Jinling City.
Not to mention whether there are any good men elsewhere, even if there are, Li Waner doesn't want her daughter to marry far away.
Qi Yuanhao's power is all in Jinling City. If he marries in Jinling, even if Qi Yuwei is born to his concubine, for Qi Yuanhao's sake, no one dares to look down upon her. If she marries outside, she will be beyond the reach of her daughter. If she was really being bullied, there was nothing she could do.
"Weiwei, don't be sad. I'll go find your father later. He has so many people under his command. The worst thing is to find him among those people. Although his family background is not good, at least he is devoted to you and never dares to have second thoughts."
Li Waner thought about it and thought this was a good idea.
If you really can't find a suitable young master from a wealthy family, then look for him from among the people under Qi Yuanhao. Qi Yuanhao's status is there, and there are many capable people under him. They rely on When eating with Qi Yuanhao, their daughter is marrying lowly. They will never dare to treat Qi Yuwei lightly.
Li Waner thought well, but Qi Yuwei was not willing. She showed a strong look of dissatisfaction on her face and said unhappily: "Mom, how can you think so? I am the fifth young lady of the Qi family, Marshal Qi My daughter, how can I marry those stinky soldiers? "
She didn't want to marry Qi Yuanhao's top soldier. If she was willing to lower her standards, she wouldn't have delayed getting married until now.
"Mom, I don't care. You have to help me. I don't want to marry lowly. I want to marry into a big family. Otherwise, I would rather never marry for the rest of my life."
As she spoke, Qi Yuwei began to cry, and Li Waner quickly comforted her.
