Chapter 466 Who is better?
Qin Yumo sneered in her heart.
She spoke as if her aunt would find a good marriage for her.
The better the marriage, the greater the dowry.
Only if you marry poorly, the dowry will be as good as giving to a beggar.
Besides, she would rather not marry than marry the person she loves.
……
On the way back to the Prince's Mansion, Ji Chuhe praised Rong Qingqing for what she had just done.
"Sister-in-law, don't be fooled by my calm appearance just now. I was actually very panicked inside."
Rong Qingqing is not a fool.
Since her marriage was not a sure thing, she must avoid the Third Prince and not have any private contact with him.
Otherwise, if the marriage changes, her reputation will definitely be damaged.
By then, if the news gets out that she had met with the Third Prince in private and accepted his gifts, it will only do her harm and no good.
"Sister-in-law, do you know why I reacted so quickly just now?"
"Why?" Ji Chuhe was really curious about this.
"Of course it's because of my aunt. The news of her breaking off the engagement with the Luo family caused a lot of controversy. My aunt has no relationship with Luo Heng. They just had an engagement. The Luo family still wanted to throw dirty water on my aunt! Not to mention that the person in the engagement was a member of the royal family."
Ji Chuhe smiled and nodded, "Qingqing, why do you think Miss Qin insisted on competing with you today?"
"Sister-in-law, she really came for me. I don't know her, let alone have any grudge against her. Besides, she is not stupid or foolish. What's the benefit of arguing about this? I'm afraid it will only cause more harm!"
"They say jealousy can make people lose their minds. I've seen it today."
"Jealous? Why should she be jealous of me? She is also a lady from the prime minister's mansion! Although she is from the second house, she is also a legitimate daughter!" Rong Qingqing had not yet reacted.
"She has a similar status to you, so she's certainly not jealous of your background. Moreover, jealousy of someone is often because she doesn't have what you have," Ji Chuhe reminded.
"I have it, but she doesn't?" Rong Qingqing pondered it carefully, "Could it be the Third Prince? She is jealous that I was married to the Third Prince, and she likes the Third Prince."
"I think this is the reason." Ji Chuhe nodded.
Rong Qingqing sighed, "What is it like to like someone? Can it really make people lose their minds and do stupid things that they wouldn't normally do? If that's the case, then I don't want to like anyone! It seems that I don't like the Third Prince either."
"Sister-in-law, I'm going to tell you something truthfully. Please don't make fun of me after you hear it."
"Okay." Ji Chuhe agreed immediately.
"When I received the Third Prince's reply, I really had a strange feeling in my heart. I felt a kind of respect that I was taken seriously. Before, when I mentioned the Third Prince, it was like mentioning a stranger. After receiving that letter, he is no longer an insignificant stranger in my heart, and my heart also throbbed a little. But that's all."
"I understand how you feel."
"Sister-in-law, tell me secretly, have you ever liked anyone?"
"No." Ji Chuhe answered very straightforwardly.
"From this perspective, the man in the storybook is more attractive. There is absolutely no such man in the storybook in this world."
“So, there are storybooks, which can give people a little spiritual comfort.”
"So, what's wrong with me reading the storybook?" Rong Qingqing suddenly became righteous.
Ji Chuhe was amused by her.
……
The third prince was frustrated by Rong Qingqing and was in a bad mood.
When he arrived at the Queen's palace, he immediately told the Queen what had just happened outside the palace gate.
"Mother, did Ji Chuhe suspect us? What did she say to Rong Qingqing that made Rong Qingqing distance herself from me?"
The queen had no way to answer this question.
Because Ji Chuhe is really hard to figure out.
"No matter whether Ji Chuhe doubts us or not, you just need to do as your mother says and try to find opportunities to interact with Rong Qingqing more. Your mother will also put more effort into your father and let you and Rong Qingqing get married as soon as possible."
"Mother, the situation in the court is turbulent, and the position of the Grand Minister of Agriculture has not yet been determined. Once the position of the Grand Minister of Agriculture is determined, will father go to war with the Hu bandits?"
"What you said is possible. If that's the case, your marriage will definitely be delayed."
"Mother, I am worried about my marriage. If I delay, something bad may happen."
This is also what the Queen is worried about. "Mother, please think of a way. Even if we don't get married, we must make sure Rong Qingqing can't marry anyone else except you!"
"I will leave it to you, mother, to make the decision."
……
When Qin Yumo returned home, Madam Qin exaggerated her behavior.
Old Madam Qin blamed her again, and her mother was also implicated.
Her mother, Chen, walked towards the second house's courtyard while crying.
Qin Yumo followed her without saying a word.
"Aren't you the one who has the most ideas on weekdays? Why did you make such a big mistake when you entered the palace today? Mother was counting on you to find a good marriage so that mother can live a good life in this mansion." Chen kept muttering.
"Mother, don't be angry, it's my fault." Qin Yumo apologized immediately.
In this world, she only considers her mother as her relative, and she doesn't care about anyone else.
"Momo, it's your mother's fault that she didn't let you live a good life."
"Mom, don't worry, I will let you live a good life." Qin Yumo hugged Chen tightly.
Chen couldn't bear to blame her anymore.
……
Just three days later, the Third Prince came to the Prince's Mansion again.
On the surface, he was looking for the prince, but in fact he was coming for Rong Qingqing.
Xiao Yan'an naturally knew what the Third Prince meant. After speaking a few words to him, he took him out for a drink.
Ji Chuhe looked at the departing backs of Xiao Yan'an and the Third Prince, a smile forming at the corner of her lips.
……
Qin Yumo didn't leave the second room's yard for three consecutive days.
Her maid ran in from outside.
"I asked you to get something, why did you take so long?"
"Miss, I just heard those people talking about the Third Prince in the front yard, and I couldn't help but listen for a while."
"Talking about the third prince? What do they mean by talking about the third prince?" Qin Yumo asked casually.
"They said that the Third Prince really likes Miss Qingqing from the Rong family. I heard that he went to the Prince's Mansion again today. Everyone knows that Miss Qingqing is now living in the Prince's Mansion. He must want to meet her. Before, the Third Prince always went to the Duke of Rong's Mansion."
Qin Yumo felt very uncomfortable.
That day, outside the palace gate, the Third Prince wanted to give Rong Qingqing a hairpin, but Rong Qingqing refused. How come only three days later, the Third Prince went to find Rong Qingqing again?
Doesn't he mind Rong Qingqing's indifference at all?
