Chapter 398 Family Background
Chapter 398 Family Background
Everyone in the teahouse listened to a wonderful storytelling performance with great interest. The storyteller spoke eloquently and told the story with ups and downs, which was fascinating. After listening to this wonderful storytelling, I got up and left the teahouse with a sense of satisfaction and walked towards the Prince Yun's Mansion.
When they arrived at the gate of Prince Yun's Mansion, Yang Dashan and the servants were busy making sausages.
The strings of red and fragrant sausages hanging on the racks are mouth-watering.
When everyone returned home, the sun was already setting, and they also brought back a list of young ladies from various families in the capital.
As they were riding in the carriage back home, Old Lady Yang and Li couldn't hold back their curiosity. They stared at the booklet in their hands, eager to try it out. Unfortunately, they both had limited literacy skills, so even though they were looking forward to it, they had no choice but to give up the idea.
Finally returning home and having dinner, Old Lady Yang and Mrs. Li couldn't wait to grab Xiao Cao'er and hurried back to the room to study the booklet carefully.
The three of them sat together and read the book attentively. After a while, Xiao Cao'er suddenly shouted excitedly: "Look, there are actually the names of Lu Ling'er, Gu Shiyi and Su Yuwei in it!"
Hearing this, Old Lady Yang and Li hurriedly came closer to take a closer look. As expected, they saw the three names clearly listed in the booklet.
Seeing these familiar names, Xiao Cao couldn't help but smile, because she had dealt with these three girls before and had a very good impression of them. Now seeing their names again in this book, she naturally felt particularly close to them.
"Xiao Cao'er, you are really great! You actually get to know these three girls. Tell grandma quickly, how did you get to know them? What are their personalities like?" asked Old Mrs. Yang with curiosity on her face.
Xiao Cao smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Grandma, I went to the Autumn Banquet of Duke Liu's Mansion with my eldest brother a few days ago, and I met these sisters there. We played and chatted together and got along very happily, so we got to know each other. Besides, these sisters are very nice!"
When Mrs. Li heard this, she quickly said, "Well, if that's the case, then we have to get to know these ladies better. Who knows, we might meet again in the future!"
In this way, the three people's topic naturally revolved around these three names. Old Lady Yang and Li kept asking Xiao Cao'er questions, and Xiao Cao'er patiently answered them one by one.
"Sister Lu Ling'er, she is Brother Hua Ming's sister-in-law. I heard that she is a smart, well-behaved and sensible girl." Xiao Cao'er introduced in detail.
"And there's sister Gu Shiyi. Her family is a doctor in the Ministry of War. She must be well-educated and well-mannered. As for sister Su Yuwei, she's even more amazing. She's the granddaughter of General Su! She's of noble status."
After saying this, Xiao Caoer looked at Old Lady Yang and Mrs. Li, and added with a smile: "Grandma, mother, in my opinion, these sisters not only have prominent family backgrounds, but also have very good personalities. You two may want to consider them."
"Yes, it's really good!" Old Mrs. Yang nodded repeatedly and muttered to herself, her face full of joy. However, her brows were then tightly frowned and she said worriedly, "I just don't know if people will think highly of our family... Alas!" As she spoke, she sighed deeply, and a trace of worry appeared in her eyes.
"Yes, mother, you are right." Li on the side quickly interjected, "Our family background is clearly there. The third girl's family background is much better than ours." She shook her head gently, seeming to feel quite helpless about the matter.
At this time, Xiao Cao'er, who had been standing quietly by the side, suddenly said, "Grandma, Auntie, don't worry too much! Although our family background is not as good as that of the third girl, my brothers are all outstanding in appearance!
As for family background, it will all depend on the brothers to work hard in the future. But I believe that with the skills and abilities of our brothers, there will definitely be no problem! "When Xiaocao'er said this, her little face was filled with confidence.
Hearing what Xiao Cao said, Old Lady Yang nodded slightly, and the worry on her face eased a little, but she still said unconfidently: "Girl, although the boys in our family are indeed good, I'm afraid that they will look down on our ordinary family..."
"That's right, mother is right." Li echoed, "Why don't we take a look at other girls? Maybe we can find a more suitable one." After saying that, she turned her gaze to Old Lady Yang, waiting for the old lady's decision.
