Chapter 252
In the main hall, A Bao was very discerning and waiting on the side. When he saw the wife of the Right Prime Minister come in, he hurried forward to greet her and said, "Madam."
The Right Prime Minister's wife turned around and sat down on the armchair. The nanny beside her handed her a cup of tea. She took a sip to moisten her throat and then asked, "What exactly happened? Please tell me in detail."
A Bao thought for a moment and then told everyone what he had seen.
The Right Prime Minister's wife's smile grew wider as she listened. When she heard her son take the initiative to call the person back and insisted on giving the bracelet, she sat up straight and asked anxiously in a low voice, "Are you serious? Did the young master really do this?"
"real,"
A Bao nodded quickly, "The young master not only spoke, but also exchanged a few words with the woman."
"This servant sees that the young master is very different from before. He no longer has that gloomy look and looks much more energetic. So this servant thought that he should report to the lady as soon as possible and then came to find you." As he spoke, he quietly raised his eyes and glanced at the wife of the Right Prime Minister. He felt uneasy and couldn't figure out the lady's thoughts.
While pondering Abao's words, the Right Prime Minister's wife asked, "Did Miss Luo really accept the bracelet?"
"Madam, I accepted it." A Bao responded, quietly hiding the detail that Miss Luo didn't want to accept it at first, but accepted it after being persuaded by several of them.
A Bao knew who was close and who was distant. While this was a bit unfair to Miss Luo, if she could become their young mistress in the future, the Madam and the Young Master would certainly not treat her unfairly. At worst, he, A Bao, would personally apologize later.
"Haha, good, good." The Right Prime Minister's wife thought to herself and was very satisfied with Luo Shuiyao.
Although Miss Luo's background was somewhat humble, her son's situation was unique. While she didn't think her son was any worse than others, she understood that he was different, otherwise he wouldn't have remained unmarried. Some smaller families were willing to marry their daughters, but the subtle thoughts they expressed after learning about their son's situation made her disdainful, fearing that their family traditions would be corrupted and affect her own bloodline.
However, those families with high status and whom she admired were unwilling to send their daughters to come here, so the situation remained at an impasse. This flower viewing banquet was a tradition, held every year since her son was old enough to be married, but she had not expected such a surprise this year.
She remembered that Miss Luo's parents had both passed away, but fortunately she had the support of the Marquis' Mansion. She was beautiful, gentle, and polite, and had been personally favored by the emperor. Most importantly, her son liked her. Over the years, she had tried to match her up with many women, both openly and covertly, but her son had never even glanced at her, let alone spoken to her.
Now her son had actually taken the initiative to talk to the girl and even gave her a bracelet, how could she not be overjoyed? Thinking of the hints in Madam Luo's words, she expected that if such a good thing were to be spread, the Marquis's wife would definitely not refuse, and she was even more delighted.
Thinking of this, she hurriedly called out to Madam Lu.
Madam Lu was the stewardess beside her. She heard everything clearly and was filled with joy for her young master. When she heard the lady calling, she quickly replied, "Madam, I am here."
"Go and find the most famous matchmaker in the capital, and ask her to go to the Marquis's residence tomorrow to ask for a matchmaker. Also, prepare An'er's horoscope and all the necessary etiquette. Don't let people think that we are mistreating the girl." The wife of the Right Prime Minister gave orders while thinking, and she looked so anxious that she wished she could do it herself.
At this moment, the Right Prime Minister returned to his residence. As he reached the door, he heard his wife's voice. However, he only understood half of what she said, so he asked, "Which girl have you treated poorly?"
When the Right Prime Minister's wife heard her husband had returned, she hurried forward with a smile, taking his coat from his hands while saying, "I invited young ladies from various families to my residence today, and unexpectedly, Miss Luo from the Marquis's residence had a chance encounter with An'er. I noticed that the young lady and An'er got along really well. Not only did An'er chat with her, he even gave her a bracelet he had made himself, and the young lady accepted it. I was thinking that to avoid any further complications, I should quickly ask a matchmaker to help arrange this matter and finalize it."
"Oh?"
The Right Prime Minister was slightly surprised. He raised an eyebrow and glanced at his wife, who was beaming with joy. Then he asked, "Is this true?"
The Right Prime Minister's wife glared at her husband coquettishly and said, "Of course you take it seriously. How can I joke about this?"
After hearing this, the Right Prime Minister nodded and said, "That girl is quite good. Although it is unclear why she received the reward from His Majesty, she has caught His Majesty's eye. Although her family background is a bit humble, our family does not need our in-laws to have a particularly noble family background. So, it seems that there is nothing wrong with her."
When the Right Prime Minister's wife heard her husband's words, she realized that they coincided with her own thoughts and was overjoyed. She immediately said, "Then I'll tell Madam Lu to go right away."
Nanny Lu had waited by the side with great tact when she saw the Master come in to ask about it. Now, after hearing that the Master and the Madam had already reached an agreement, she was about to leave when the Right Prime Minister called out to her, "Wait."
The Right Prime Minister's wife was somewhat puzzled and asked, "Master, what do you mean?"
She was completely confused. They had clearly just agreed on it, so why did the master stop Madam Lu and not let her go find Madam Xi?
She was worried that if she delayed for a while, someone else would snatch Nanny Xi away and she would have to wait another day. She really didn't want to wait. After all these years, she finally found the right person, but she was afraid of the long wait and didn't want anything else to go wrong.
The Right Prime Minister gently stroked his beard, feeling that it was not appropriate to handle this matter so hastily.
The Right Prime Minister thought for a moment, then spoke to comfort his wife, "I understand you're anxious, but no matter how anxious you are, you can't lose due courtesy. We should first send someone to the Marquis's Mansion to inquire. We must understand the opinions of the Loyal and Brave Marquis and his wife, and then ask the girl what she thinks. If all else is acceptable, it won't be too late to ask for Nanny Xi. After all, this is a marriage, not an enmity. If something goes wrong and tarnishes the girl's reputation, that would be inappropriate."
The Right Prime Minister's wife had been completely overwhelmed by her joy, but now, after her husband's reminder, she naturally understood the reason. After hearing his words, she had no choice but to suppress her anxiety and said, "Okay, how about I go and test the waters tomorrow? If everything goes well, it won't be too late to invite Nanny Xi the day after tomorrow."
"Okay, let's do it."
The Right Prime Minister's wife frowned slightly, and said with some difficulty, "But now there is no reason, I need to find a reason to deliver the visiting card. Since I am afraid of damaging the girl's reputation, I must find a suitable excuse, otherwise if the news leaks out..."
The Right Prime Minister understood what his wife hadn't finished saying and nodded in response, "That's fine."
The Right Prime Minister's wife frowned, worried. "But what excuse can I come up with? They just came to our house. It's really hard to come up with any excuse in such a short time."
Ah Bao had been waiting nearby because he hadn't received the mistress's orders. Upon hearing the conversation between the master and the mistress, his eyes lit up and he quickly volunteered, "Master, Madam, I have an idea."
