The real daughter died tragically and was reborn, and the whole family cried and begged for forgiven

Chapter 197 Mother has decided to arrange a marriage for Luo'er!

On the fifth day of the first lunar month, worship the God of Wealth.

Li Qingluo got up early in the morning and went to the God of Wealth's shrine to burn incense and worship sincerely.

After she practiced sword skills and went back to her room to write a piece of calligraphy, Cui'er and Que'er pushed her in front of the dressing table.

"Miss, you are going to the palace with the master, his wife, and the old lady today. We need to get dressed quickly!"

Li Qingluo picked up a silk flower and played with it: "Why rush? It's still early anyway."

Que'er suddenly looked nervous: "It's getting late. My grandma just said that we should go to the palace gate early to line up. If we go late, we will be scolded by those palace stewards."

"Also, this silk flower was made for you by the old lady's craftsmen in a hurry. You have strong hands, so please don't break it again."

Cui'er said, "Exactly. Miss, you bent all the petals of a silk flower yesterday, and I had a lot of trouble to repair it. If you break another one, and the old lady asks why you didn't wear any silk flowers today, we will be blamed."

Li Qingluo put down the silk flower awkwardly.

"Is it really impossible not to wear this?"

Que'er: "Of course not. The old lady has repeatedly instructed me to dress you up to look as beautiful as a lotus emerging from the water! Of course, it must be dignified and elegant!"

"Of course, this is also the most popular item in Jinling City right now."

"Don't be nervous, young lady. You are the eldest daughter of our general's family, and today is your first time back to the palace. We can't afford to lose this battle."

Li Qingluo sighed inwardly.

She knew what her grandmother was thinking. She was probably worried about her marriage again and wanted to take advantage of today to meet her some of the young men who were entering the palace today.

This is indeed a good opportunity.

Well, as long as grandma is happy, what does it matter if she lets her be busy?

Anyway, my grandmother would not arrange a marriage for her without asking for my opinion.

Watching Que'er placing the pearl hairpins one by one on her head, Li Qingluo calmed down instead.

There was also a small mountain of jewelry boxes and cloth piled up beside him, all of which were sent by Qu in the past few days.

Although Li Qingluo collected them all, it was still useless.

She was just wondering why Qu had become more and more positive towards her recently.

Especially on the second day of the New Year, when she came back from Qu's house, she gave Li Qingluo a cart full of things.

There are so many of them, all of which should have been brought back from the Qu family.

Why did the Qu family suddenly show such kindness to me?

Li Qingluo had a hunch that something was fishy going on, and he became more alert.

Soon, Li Qingluo knew what Qu was planning.

"Luo'er, why don't you hurry up and pay your respects to your great-uncle?"

The Qu family has two branches.

The current Minister of Revenue, Mr. Qu, is Qu's uncle and the eldest son of the Qu family.

Qu came from the second branch of the Qu family. Qu's father was still just a small civil servant of the fourth rank, so all the glory of the Qu family and even Qu came from the first branch of the same lineage.

Mrs. Qu Youshi from the second house is Li Qingluo's maternal grandmother. She does not have the qualifications and status to appear at today's palace banquet, so the great-grandmother whom Mrs. Qu asked Li Qingluo to meet at this moment is Mrs. He, the first wife of the Minister of Revenue, Mr. Qu.

Just at the palace gate, the men and women on both sides had just separated when the two families happened to meet each other.

It was not their turn to enter the palace yet, so the women from both families got off the carriage and met each other.

After the elders exchanged greetings, Qu pushed Li Qingluo forward with a little excitement.

At Madam Pei's suggestion, Li Qingluo politely paid his respects to Madam He.

"Luo'er meets my great-grandmother."

Madam He was looking at Li Qingluo with a kind face, but at this moment, a clear and clear voice came from the front: "Grandma——"

Madam He's face instantly lit up with a smile: "It's Brother Xun!"

Li Qingluo quickly retreated. By the time the young man got off the carriage, she had returned to Mrs. Pei and lowered her head slightly.

The young man seemed to have just arrived in a hurry.

When he got off the carriage, Mrs. Pei looked at him unintentionally.

After Xun'er politely greeted the elders, his gaze naturally fell on Li Qingluo: "Could this be my cousin Luo'er, whom I have never met?"

The only female relatives that the eldest branch of the Qu family brought with them today were Old Madam He and their two legitimate granddaughters.

The Li family's side is also simple, with only Madam Pei, Qu and Li Qingluo.

So it was not difficult for Brother Xun to recognize Li Qingluo at a glance.

Besides, she is so outstanding!

Among the girls who came around to rest, she was the most eye-catching, dazzling and stunning one!

Just half of her face is so stunningly beautiful that it makes people fall in love with her.

Moreover, she has an outstanding figure, which makes Xun Ge'er very satisfied.

Xun Ge'er stared at Li Qingluo but didn't dare to look at her any longer. He looked at his grandmother with a slightly red face.

Madam He smiled and said, "This is our eldest son, the second son of the family, and the fourth son of the family, Xun'er. Xun'er, that is indeed Luo'er. Why don't you go up and say hello?"

Qu Daoxun took a half step forward and bowed to Li Qingluo, "My name is Qu Daoxun, nice to meet you, Cousin Luo'er. Why didn't you see Cousin Luo'er come home on the second day of the New Year?"

"My brothers and sisters were all looking forward to meeting Cousin Luo'er that day."

Mrs. Pei was already unhappy: "Sunset was with me that day, so I didn't have much free time."

"Brother Qu Jiaxun, if you don't rush to the palace gate to meet your grandfather, I'm afraid you won't be able to enter the palace today."

Qu Daoxun then said goodbye in a hurry, looked at Li Qingluo again, and then got on the carriage and rushed to the palace gate.

Madam Pei seemed to have realized something. She nodded coldly to Madam He, turned around and took Li Qingluo into the carriage.

Li Qingluo didn't say another word from beginning to end, so when Qu came up, her face looked very ugly.

"Luo'er, your cousin was speaking to you in a very kind and gentle manner, but you ignored him? This is so rude!"

Madam Pei: "Then what should she do to be considered polite and well-mannered?"

"You're rushing to curry favor with your Qu family, shamelessly chatting and laughing with outsiders at the palace gate. Do you think you're being polite and well-mannered?!"

"Qu, don't think I don't know what you're up to!"

"You were so enthusiastic today in pushing Luo'er towards your aunt, and coincidentally, Brother Xun arrived late and got to see Luo'er. His eyes darted back and forth over and over again. What on earth do you want to do?!"

"Why don't you tell me clearly now?"

Qu's face turned red and white. Her mother-in-law's eyes were too vicious and powerful!

Xun Ge'er just looked at Luo'er a few more times, and she actually noticed it.

Qu didn't dare to say it out loud. She originally wanted the Qu family to see Luo'er and make sure they were satisfied. After they were really interested, she would let Li Chaojing go and ask the old lady in person.

Brother Xun is the grandson of his uncle, the Minister of Revenue!

It was her mother's family, and now that their Li family could still arrange this marriage, it was already a very good match. She thought her mother-in-law would definitely agree.

But now it seems that my mother-in-law and mother-in-law don’t seem to like Xun’er?

Mrs. Qu replied with a guilty conscience, "Mother, you misunderstood. I just wanted Luo'er to get closer to my family... After she returned to Jinling, she hasn't returned to the Qu family with me..."

Seeing that she refused to speak, Madam Pei snorted coldly, "I don't care what you're thinking, just don't try to take advantage of my Luo'er!"

"I'll say it again. I'll take care of Luo'er's marriage and future myself. I don't want you to get involved here!"

Madam Pei has made it so clear.

Qu's face turned pale.

Just don't want her to care about it anymore?

Are you really not going to accept this marriage from the Qu family?

"Mother, I am Luo'er's mother after all. Could the plan I gave her harm her?"

Old Madam Pei reached out and hit Qu's hair.

"Fool! You're such a vicious and stupid thing! That Xun Ge'er is not even as tall as a bird, and his height only reaches Luo'er's ears! You're even thinking about such a worthless thing for your daughter?"

"I didn't explain that I was giving you face, yet you're still standing here refusing to give up! You want Luo'er to marry these cripples casually, unless I die!"

Li Qingluo didn't want to upset her grandmother, so she quickly patted her chest and said, "Grandma, please don't be angry. Luo'er has you by her side, and she won't be married off to some random person."

Mrs. Qu's hair bun was crooked by the palm strike from Mrs. Pei just now.

She felt extremely humiliated, and when she heard Li Qingluo say this, she immediately glared at Li Qingluo fiercely.

"You still look down on Brother Xun? Don't you even look at yourself?"

"Xun'er is my uncle's grandson after all. His elder brother has now joined the Ministry of Revenue, and he will soon take part in the Spring Imperial Examination. If he passes, his future will be immeasurable!"

"If you want to climb up again then, you won't have this chance!"

"Besides, he's just a little shorter, so what? There are many beautiful women in Jinling City who want to marry him! Now that their eldest wife is willing to value you, it's your blessing!"

Li Qingluo: "Then why didn't you marry your Zhu'er to him?!"

Without thinking, Qu replied, "Zhu'er has her own destiny!"

Meeting Li Qingluo's sarcastic look, Qu was shocked.

Then she regretted it again: "I... Luo'er, why are you still mentioning her? She is now the favorite concubine of Prince Yun's Mansion and has nothing to do with our General's Mansion anymore. Mother is worried about your future..."

Li Qingluo: "You're so busy worrying about me, why don't you worry about yourself first? What did Mother do with Liu Qingzhu's biological grandmother back then? That allowed Zhao to steal your child away? Sixteen years later, you knew the truth, but you didn't dare to pursue it?"

"That day during the standoff at the General's Mansion, what words did Mother say that frightened her so much that she didn't even dare to act like a mistress of the house, making decisions for her daughter?!"

Li Qingluo's few words frightened Qu so much that she broke out in a sweat.

"You—! What do you know?"
