The stunning beauty of Qing Dynasty

As a princess who married a general and was able to train the general into obedience, Gu Yanran naturally had a set of life principles. This was true for training her husband and even more so for her son.

Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. As long as people are happy, it will not involve the general's mansion. Gu Yanran has no intention of finding fault with her future daughter-in-law. As long as the couple is happy and their life is good, as long as the future daughter-in-law has no major problems, Gu Yanran does not mind. If there are some things that she does not like, she will just ignore it.

So after hearing Song's mother talk about Qingyin's illness, she still insisted on studying medicine. In Gu Yanran's view, this was the tenacity of not giving up on oneself even in desperate situations. The fact that she was able to make an effective skin-beautifying ointment in a short time after studying medicine showed that she was intelligent and had a strong learning ability.

Regardless of other factors, just based on these two points, Gu Yanran had a good impression of the young lady from the Song family.

"Miss Song is smart, and Madam Song is also blessed."

Gu Yanran praised sincerely.

Mother Song's eyes narrowed with smiles when she was praised.

"Princess, you're so kind. It's just a little thing. If you like it, I have a set of unopened ointments that Qingqing has prepared. Take it home and apply it once every night after bathing."

"Thank you very much, Mrs. Song and Miss Song."

Gu Yanran thanked him calmly, but suddenly her eyes turned, revealing some worry. She looked at Mother Song with a hint of expectation: "Madam Song, I came here today and I won't say those evasive words. In fact, I have something to discuss with you, Madam."

When Song's mother saw this scene, she suddenly felt a lump in her heart and had an ominous premonition.

"What can the princess ask of a common woman?"

Song's mother asked in surprise.

Gu Yanran pretended to be worried, but in her heart she was secretly admiring Madam Song's intelligence.

Although the Song family does not have a large family connection, the family will not be in trouble just because of the intelligence of the hostess. I heard that the second son of the Song family is this year's champion. It seems that the future of the Song family is very bright.

Thoughts flashed through Gu Yanran's mind.

When dealing with the Song family, who are so smart and truly love their daughter, she doesn't need to explain the ordinary interests clearly, but should instead talk about her genuine kindness and honesty towards their daughter.

"Madam Song, I'm here today to propose marriage to Miss Song on behalf of my son."

Song's mother: "..."

His face changed, but he had to pretend to be calm and looked at Gu Yanran vigilantly.

Gu Yanran glanced at Song's mother's face and sighed in her heart. The Song family really loved their children. To be honest, although Gu Yanran didn't mind Miss Song's situation, Miss Song was now divorced and had a child, which made her unworthy of her son.

Song's mother doesn't even look down on her own son. It is obvious that she doesn't value family background but simply wants to be good to Miss Song.

Gu Yanran had to say that she had misunderstood this idea.

At the beginning, when Song's mother was getting a divorce from Qingyin, she saw Shen Du making a fuss in the Liu Mansion for her daughter, so she naturally considered Shen Du.

But after Qingyin recovered, her appearance became more and more beautiful day by day. Now she has reached a beauty that no one in the world can compare to. Naturally, Song's mother's "appetite" has been whetted by her daughter's stunning appearance.

To put it simply, Song's mother feels that no man in the world is worthy of her daughter.

Gu Yanran studied Mother Song's expression and spoke sincerely of her son's strengths. "Madam Song, I won't hide it from you. My son Ah Du has always been fond of Miss Song... Miss Song was originally married to Liu Zhi. I thought he had given up on this idea, but after Miss Song got into trouble, he foolishly learned about the situation and told his uncle, the Emperor. He also promised to pacify the Northern Frontier, and only then did the imperial edict reach the Liu Mansion. I only found out about this later. Otherwise, this matter... Hey, I care about this matter, but I don't know if this child's matter has made you dislike him?"

Song's mother: "!!!"

This imperial edict was actually obtained by Shen Du through a battle.

Mother Song was shocked.

This, this, how could they hate him? She even wanted to worship Shen Du.

This kid really did a great job! Even with this order, Shen Du is still needed to fight. What if something unexpected happens in this battle?

Mother Song frowned, "I really want to thank Master Shen for this, but I'm worried that if Master Shen encounters..."

Gu Yanran interrupted Song's mother, and after seeing the sincere concern for Shen Du in Song's mother's eyes, Gu Yanran's last bit of resentment towards her son for foolishly exchanging a battle for an imperial edict disappeared.

Gu Yanran shook her head. "Shen Du is the son of a military family. He made his own choice. Regardless of whether it's safe or not, I won't implicate anyone else because of this. Besides, that child is far more blessed and fortunate than Madam imagines."

Having said that, Gu Yanran winked playfully, easing the somewhat tense atmosphere.

"Originally, Ah Du wanted to keep this a secret, but I didn't want him to miss out on this fate with Miss Song, so I shamelessly told him."

"If Miss Song marries Ah Du, Ah Du will naturally only have her as his wife."

Song's mother was moved.

"Also, Ah Du's affection for so many years has been within the bounds of propriety. Madam Song understands him better than anyone else."

Even more excited.

"Adu, he must be genuinely kind to Miss Song."

When talking about her son's strengths, Gu Yanran suddenly thought of Miss Song, whom her son had mentioned. She now has an amazing appearance and has even attracted the covetousness of the prince. She added a sentence.

"And if you marry into the Shen family, no one will dare to disturb Miss Song."

When saying this, Gu Yanran sounded both domineering and certain.

Song's mother was even more moved, especially when she heard that no one dared to disturb Qingqing, she was completely moved.

But he still said hesitantly: "The child's marriage still depends on personal wishes."

"Mrs. Song is right. Of course, it depends on the child's opinion. Why don't you ask now?"

Gu Yanran nodded calmly, her faint smile showing no emotion at all.

"Okay then, I'll ask the maid to go ask Qingyin."

Mother Song suddenly felt something was a little wrong, but this feeling quickly disappeared as Gu Yanran kept praising her daughter's excellence.

The eldest princess who successfully controlled Madam Song: Even though she hadn't practiced for many years, her skills were still excellent.

Now, as long as her son didn't lie to her, Miss Song would marry his son.

As for what the son said at the beginning, telling Song's mother that Qingqing had agreed to his feelings, Gu Yanran would not be so stupid as to directly tell the Song family that her son had coaxed the girl and the girl had agreed.

Gu Yanran promised that if she really told Song's mother what the stinky boy had said, Song's mother's attitude towards her would definitely not be as good as it is now.

the other side.

Huilan Residence.

Qingyin was stunned when she received questions from the maid beside her mother.

The people from the Shen family arrived so quickly?

Could it be that Shen Du told his mother when he went back last night? He had to tell Qingyin the truth.

"Miss?"

The maid was still waiting for Qingyin's answer.

Qingyin shook her head, and the maid showed a puzzled expression, "The young lady is unwilling."

"No, no, we will go and meet the princess in person."

Qingyin smiled, revealing a stunning smile that made the maid blush.

In the main courtyard, Song's mother was still chatting with the eldest princess.

While they were chatting, the maid that Song's mother had sent out just now came back and talked to Song's mother for a while. Gu Yanran tried hard to listen to the voice, but the distance was too far and she could not hear the maid's voice clearly. She could only see from the corner of her eye that the expression on Song's mother's face suddenly became surprised and alert. She shuddered in her heart. Why did she say so much? Mrs. Song's expression changed back to the expression she had when she first heard Shen Du wanted to ask Miss Song to marry her.

Could it be that Miss Song has changed her mind?

Gu Yanran was confusedly thinking.

Now Gu Yanran was really nervous.

Mrs. Song smiled politely at Gu Yanran.

Gu Yanran took it seriously.

Agree or refuse?

"My Qingqing wants to come and meet the princess in person and express her feelings."

Gu Yanran: “…”

Although it was not explicitly rejected, the result was indeed much better than the worse situation I had imagined.

"Miss Song, please come in."

Gu Yanran looked towards the door with a little nervousness and curiosity.
