The Marquise: I Earn My Own Worship

The situation became a little heavy. They were worried about their youngest sister not doing well.

At this time, someone came in from outside. It was Chu Qinrui who had just arrived.

"It's snowing heavily outside. I just came out of the palace."

Prince Rui was feeling a little sleepy at first. He lay on the couch, squinting his eyes and listening to his daughters gossiping.

Seeing the boss coming back, he opened his eyes and looked towards the curtain.

"You're back, but are you cold?"

Chu Qinrui came back from outside, the heater in his hand was still warm, so he walked a few steps to the door of his house.

"How could it be cold? I came here in a sedan chair."

With the addition of the eldest sister, the atmosphere became lively again.

"By the way, regarding Eleven, I have an idea."

Chu Qinrui came with good news, although it wasn't really good news.

The other pairs of eyes lit up and looked at the eldest sister.

We are all father’s daughters, but the eldest sister is always smarter and always has a way to solve any problem.

Everyone urged her to speak, and Chu Qinmei also sat up straight to listen.

"Which one is it?"

"Do you know the Sixth Prince's wife's mother's family?"

The Sixth Prince's Consort?

Oh, the cousin from Marquis Duan’s mansion.

I am so ashamed. Maybe it is because the Sixth Prince's wife grew up in the Marquis' Mansion, so whenever she is mentioned, I think of the Marquis Duan's Mansion.

"The Sixth Prince's wife's father is Shen Xianli, the current governor of Jiangping, Dongyang."

They nodded vaguely, as if they remembered it immediately.

"Isn't this inappropriate? County Magistrate Shen is three years younger than me."

"So what? A woman three years older than you is a real treasure."

They started talking at once, and the more they talked, the more they felt that this person was very suitable.

There are no concubines in the family, only two children, so the family is truly innocent.

"I heard that County Magistrate Shen and his wife are deeply in love. Could it be that he is guarding her?"

"I sent someone to inquire. Madam Duan had chosen a partner for him before, but it didn't work out. It seems like it's not going to work out. He only has those two children, so he hasn't gotten married in all these years."

A man with defects is not the first choice, even if you are rich and powerful.

These things were spread from Jiang Ping, and Chu Qinrui had to go to great lengths to find out.

The person who said it was vague, but this is roughly what he meant.

People of prominence still have some dignity and would not really send their daughters into the "fire pit".

Even if you have to give it away, it should be a profitable fire pit.

The whole room was silent, and no one knew what to say.

Prince Rui was listening quietly with his ears perked up. He originally thought that the Shen family was not bad, but when he heard the end, he choked on his own saliva.

After a violent coughing fit, Prince Rui finally caught his breath.

I nearly choked myself to death with my saliva.

Otherwise, how can they be suitable? If one can't give birth, the other can't give birth either.

Isn't it wonderful to just live a makeshift life?

Each of them lives on one side and they don't disturb each other, which is a perfect match for living together.

Well, now it’s time for Chu Yuhui to take the stage again.

It's better to ask around for information on this matter.

The more I inquired about it, the more it seemed like a perfect fit.

So when Kang Ge'er came to see the Sixth Prince again, Chu Yuhui took him out of the palace and prepared a table of good wine and food.

Brother Jian went with his mother back to her parents' home for a banquet and was not here.

So there are only three people: Kang Ge'er, Chu Yuhui and Chu Qinling.

After all, Chu Qinmei is Chu Qinling's cousin, so the family doesn't need to be shy about anything.

Chu Yuhui is not a person who likes to beat around the bush, and he is also afraid that the big guy in front of him will not understand if he beats around the bush.

So after two drinks, he told me his purpose.

Kang Ge'er looked at the prince in front of him who was always cold and aloof, like a god who was out of touch with the world, and was now asking him about his uncle.

"I have a little sister-in-law at home, and I came here to ask for your advice."

Kang Ge'er was much more energetic and thought to himself that he was really lucky. His grandmother had just said that she couldn't find a suitable candidate, but now one was delivered to his doorstep.

At the table, both the host and the guests had a great time. After hearing what they wanted to know, they all went back satisfied.

In Marquis Duan's mansion, after hearing the news brought back by Kang Ge'er, a discussion also broke out.

Sister Wei is getting married next year, and she is marrying a member of the royal family. It is really inappropriate for the family to have no mistress.

Originally, His Majesty had objections to this, and later even hinted several times, both explicitly and covertly, that the Shen family should have a mistress.

The Shen family needs a presentable mistress, and Chu Qinmei needs to find a place to bury herself in the future.

The two families hit it off immediately and quickly became relatives.

This was the second marriage, and neither side wanted to hold a grand ceremony, but the court needed a spokesperson, so they went through the process again.

Let everyone in the world know that the imperial court strongly advocates women marrying a second time.

Many women are kept by their husband's family after their husband's death and are not allowed to remarry. Even if some of them are willing, they can only live with their husband's tablet due to etiquette.

It was because of this marriage that many women escaped, and the lucky ones found their true love, while the unlucky ones ended up in another grave.

It would not be nice for the father to get married in the same year as his daughter, so he found an auspicious day before the New Year to get the wedding done.

Chu Qinmei didn't know whether she was lucky or unlucky. Anyway, she had already sat in the sedan chair and couldn't regret it.

You can't say that. If things aren't going well, the worst that can happen is that you get divorced again.

The first time is fine, the second time...

Chu Qinmei thought that if it was still bearable, she should just endure it.

They are all women who have been educated in etiquette and morality. For the sake of "happiness" after death, they think they should endure it as long as they can.

In fact, there is no need to think so much about what happens after death. Once you close your eyes, you will be reincarnated. Who cares about your previous life?

They don’t know that they are being educated by so-called etiquette and ethics to do what they think is right.

In the 37th year of Mingde, the Shen family welcomed its second mistress.

Although he was getting married, Shen Xianli and Chu Qinmei had three rules: they would not interfere with each other.

The housekeeping power is given to Chu Qinmei, and Shen Xianli is in charge of external affairs.

They each get what they need, so they live in harmony.

They both knew each other's situation.

The first thing Chu Qinmei did for the Shen family was to arrange a wedding for Bai Delai's daughter.

Wei Jie'er and Xuan Ge'er also came back. It was not convenient for them to stay at their mother's house now that there was a mistress at home.

Xuan Ge'er is studying now and spends very little time at home. It is the Chinese New Year now, so he is at home every day.

Both children have met their new mother and have great respect for her.

The days just passed like this.

Spring has arrived and the weather has warmed up. Xuan Ge'er carried his things into the examination room.
