Jian Yue was taken aback and looked up at Qiu Lingfeng. Her beautiful eyes were alluring and seductive. Qiu Lingfeng couldn't help but feel jealous. She suddenly sneered. She really looked like a vixen. No wonder her mother almost fell into the hands of this slut's mother back then.

She paused, suppressing her displeasure, and said mysteriously, "My sister doesn't know yet, does she? Father didn't just send you back home this time; he wants to find you a good husband."

Jian Yue blushed instantly, her eyes filled with disbelief and astonishment. She hurriedly asked, "Is what you're saying true, sister? Did Father bring me back to find me a husband?"

Seeing Jian Yue's excitement, Qiu Lingfeng slowly nodded and said, "Of course, my sister is already of age, so naturally she should find a husband. How can she stay unmarried forever?"

Jian Yue blushed slightly, lowered her head, and said with disbelief in her eyes, "Sister, please don't tease me. Although I grew up on the estate, I know the difference between legitimate and illegitimate children and the order of seniority. Sister is not yet married, so how can it be my turn? Besides, sister is already twenty years old, which is the best time for you to talk about marriage."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Lingfeng covered her face and smiled, saying, "That is indeed the rule. However, if the young master of the family that comes to propose marriage has already decided on my sister, then the marriage must naturally take place. Father and Mother cannot interfere."

Sister, these rules are rigid, but people are flexible. As sisters, no matter who gets married first, it will be an honor for the Qiu family. Just remember the kindness of Mother and Father, and don't worry about anything else.

Moreover, someone did come to propose marriage the other day. Regardless of whose husband it will be, my sister needs to learn proper etiquette so as not to embarrass our parents and so that she can hold her head high in her husband's family.

These words carried a hint of seduction, and Jian Yue seemed to sense it. She lowered her head, her body trembling slightly, as if she were about to cry tears of joy. Then, she looked up at Qiu Lingfeng, her lips trembling as she choked out:

“My father and mother are really good to me. Originally, I blamed my father and mother because there were only Xiao Cui and me in this courtyard, and I didn’t even see my father and mother.”

However, my sister's arrival, especially with such important news, really upsets me. Sister, could I see Mother right now so I can apologize to her?

Qiu Lingfeng frowned. She knew that her mother didn't want to see this bastard at all, so she said, "Mother is busy. Even if my sister went now, she definitely wouldn't be able to see him."

My younger sister isn't feeling well, and if she waits too long, she'll inevitably become unwell. If that happens, my mother will surely be scolded by my father. It would be better for my sister to rest here, and my mother will come to see her when she's done with her work.

This courtyard used to be empty. Now that my sister is back, I suppose Mother was too busy to make any arrangements. In that case, I'll have my servant from the courtyard come and deliver it to my sister.”

Jian Yue feigned fear and was about to refuse when Qiu Lingfeng said, "I've already said that there's nothing wrong between sisters. Don't be so distant. Alright, little sister, get some rest. I haven't finished my homework yet, so I'll be leaving now."

With that, Qiu Lingrong strode away, not even giving Jian Yue a chance to stop her.
