Chapter 444: The Emperor’s Destruction of the Zhenguo Mansion (4)
"It's like this, my grandmother has watched the Liang family girl grow up since she was a child, and she is a first-class good girl.
This time, her reputation was ruined because of you brats.
So grandma wants to arrange a marriage for you two, are you willing?"
Shuangshuang was stunned. He didn't expect that the old lady would come up with this idea.
On second thought, it is indeed a fatal thing for a girl nowadays to have her reputation damaged.
And even so, the Liang family didn't come to him. He is a really good person.
So he nodded obediently and said, "Grandma, please go and propose marriage. I will marry her."
"Good good!"
The old lady put her arm around Shuangshuang's shoulders.
"I knew you were a good kid."
"Don't listen to what others say. You were the person involved at the time."
"I know, Grandma. I will tell Sister Liang that this matter has nothing to do with her and ask her not to burden herself."
"That's okay, that's okay!"
Then he cheerfully instructed Cuizhu, "Go and invite the second wife over. I have something to discuss with her in detail."
The second wife had just returned to her yard and had a cup of tea. When she heard Cuizhu say that the old lady was looking for her again, she hurriedly followed Cuizhu to the first month of the year.
Although he was suspicious in his heart, he did not show it on his face.
"Old lady, do you have any instructions for your daughter-in-law?"
"Yes, I have decided to arrange a marriage between our Shuang'er and the girl from the Liang family.
You go and make the arrangements, I'll go to the Duke of Qi's Mansion later.
After all, she is our Shuang'er's grandmother, so we naturally have to inform her in advance.
Besides, he needs to come forward and bring up this matter.
Since you want to marry me, you should have the attitude of asking for marriage."
The second wife didn't expect that this would be the case. She looked at Shuangshuang in surprise and saw that Shuangshuang had no objection.
He immediately bowed to the old lady with a smile on his face.
“In that case, the daughter-in-law will go down and make arrangements first.
Speaking of which, our Shuang'er and the little girl from the Liang family are truly a match made in heaven!"
Soon, the old lady personally went to the gate of the Duke of Qi's Mansion.
When the old lady of the Duke of Qi's Mansion heard that it was her mother-in-law who came to the door, she glanced at her eldest daughter-in-law who was standing next to her and talking to her.
"Has anything happened at the Zhenguogong Mansion recently?"
The wife of the Duke of Qi thought about it seriously and shook her head.
"To my mother, no,
If anything happens, they should come and let us know."
"Well, help me up and let's go meet my old sister."
The two old sisters met at the Chuihua Gate.
With the support of her eldest daughter-in-law, Lady Bai, Duke of Qi, quickly took a few steps forward?
"Old sister, what's the matter with you coming here so suddenly?"
They both stepped forward and saluted the old lady, "Grandson greets grandmother and aunt."
"Good boy, good boy."
When the old lady saw Shuangshuang, the smile on her face became even more loving.
He personally helped Shuangshuang up and checked her out, "Are you okay these days?"
"Thank you for your concern, grandma. I am doing well."
"That's fine, that's fine."
He patted Shuangshuang's hands and then looked at the old lady of the Duke of Zhenguo again.
"Old sister, is there something important that brings you here in person?"
Madam Qi was also cheerful, "Don't worry, elder sister, this time, it's a good thing."
The two old sisters returned to Mrs. Bai's yard together, and Mrs. Qi glanced at the servants on both sides.
Old Madam Bai understood and waved to them, and soon the room was cleared.
Old Madam Qi didn't waste any time and got straight to the point.
"I wonder if my elder sister has heard anything about the girl from the Liang family during this period?"
"I heard it, I heard it. If that brat of mine hadn't already been engaged, I would have forced him to go and propose marriage."
Old Madam Bai hadn't thought too much about it at first, but when she heard the reminder, she looked at Old Madam Qi.
After taking a look at his grandson, he asked, "What do you mean?"
Old Madam Qi nodded, full of emotion.
"It's not that I don't value Shuang'er, it's just that they were the only ones who fell into the water.
Even though we are far apart, we all know it.
But those who didn't know thought something had happened.
This is bad for the girl's reputation.
And you know the girl from the Liang family, she is really a good girl.
If it weren't for this incident, I wouldn't be able to bring myself to ask this question."
Old Madam Bai nodded, she could understand the situation very well.
Just because something happened to the Liang family this time, I didn't ask them to take responsibility. My character is beyond reproach.
I had already guessed Madam Qi's intention, but I still asked aloud.
"So you came here specially today?"
"I'd like to ask my elder sister to go on this trip for me and ask Sister Liang for me.
If you agree to accept my twin boys, then I will go to the palace to ask the Queen to grant me marriage, and I will definitely not let her daughter down."
Old Lady Bai glanced at Shuangshuang and saw that he didn't seem reluctant at all, so she nodded.
"Okay, with your words, sister, I know what to do."
Then he glanced at his eldest daughter-in-law and said, "There's no time to lose. Go to the Liang family and deliver a note. I'll go over there tomorrow."
Then he looked at Shuangshuang and laughed.
"Shuang'er, this time your grandmother has found you a beautiful and talented girl, so you must treat her well in the future.
Shuangshuang's face turned red instantly and she quickly lowered her head, which made the old lady of the Liang family laugh even more.
The next day, accompanied by her maids and servants, Mrs. Bai went to the mansion of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery.
The wife of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery was waiting outside the gate. When she saw Old Madam Bai, she quickly stepped forward and helped her into the carriage.
We are all human beings. The fact that Old Lady Bai came to her house at this critical moment gave her a little hope.
He looked at Old Madam Bai with hope and gratitude in his eyes.
"Grandfather, why are you going out in person? If you have anything to say, please send a message and I will come to visit you."
"It's okay. I just missed my old sister and came to see her."
"Thank you very much, Grandpa. My aunt has been feeling a little upset these past few days because of her anger."
Old Madam Bai nodded. As someone who loved her granddaughter, she could understand Old Madam Liang's feelings very well.
Patting the back of Madam Liang's hand, he said, "Ah, this old lady, your children and grandchildren will have their own blessings, why does she care so much?
Our child has a good character and a good destiny. There will always be good things in the future, so don't worry!"
I couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Who wouldn't feel bad when encountering such a thing?
He even wanted to go back and beat up his brat again.
When Mrs. Liang heard Mrs. Bai's comforting words, her eyes instantly turned red.
She was really exhausted these days.
Not only did she have to serve the old lady, but she also had to take care of her second daughter's emotions, worrying that she might do something stupid.
"Thank you for your consideration, old lady. I won't hide it from you, niece-in-law. I even thought about dying today."
