Chapter 2692: Chapter 23: Full of Schemes
"Alright, I will talk to your uncle about this matter. He just needs to agree."
At Prince An’s Mansion, early in the morning, Yang Chuxia was sorting through name cards brought by matchmakers over the past three days with her two daughters-in-law. Each card had notes indicating which family’s young lady matched which phrase spoken by Abbess Qingning, where each lady was born in the south, who currently resides in the south, and so on.
More baffling was that out of twenty cards, five actually met the conditions.
Li Luru was surprised, "Is there really such a coincidence? Could it be they’ve altered their birth date characters?"
Yang Chuxia gave her an appreciative look, "You’re right, they’ve changed their birth characters. Look at the names on these cards; they’re mostly from small officials’ families. Truly prestigious families wouldn’t be so unsophisticated. Even if they’re interested, they wouldn’t do it this way. Instead, in a few days, rumors would spread about a young lady whose destiny is linked with water."
Li Luru learned something new, realizing there’s indeed a knack to this.
Mu Huaen observed these cards, compared them with Abbess Qingning’s words, and remained silent for quite some time.
"Huaen, what are you thinking?"
Upon hearing Yang Chuxia call her, Mu Huaen hesitated before speaking, "Mother, I truly know of someone who perfectly matches Abbess Qingning’s words."
Yang Chuxia thought, finally, she said it aloud.
She eagerly pretended to be very interested, "Quick, tell me, which family’s young lady it is."
"It’s none other than my cousin, Mu Shuang."
"Her?" Yang Chuxia burst into laughter, "Haha...excellent, excellent... I like that girl Shuangshuang very much. I’ll personally take people to visit your aunt and propose the match."
"Ah..." Mu Huaen almost dropped her jaw in surprise; isn’t this happening too quickly?
If Yang Chuxia knew, she would surely say she thinks it’s slow; only heaven knows how much effort she put into this plan.
As for getting Mu Huaen to mention Mu Shuang’s eligibility, she had already summoned her two daughters-in-law to work on it early on.
Yang Chuxia hurriedly called the matchmaker who had been waiting for ages and sent someone to find Ye Zi’an and Ye Rongqing.
Meanwhile, at the Mu Family, the atmosphere was a bit strange.
"Why do I feel that the conditions Abbess Qingning mentioned from Ye Family perfectly match our Shuangshuang?" Ms. Fan naturally heard the news and spoke to Mu Shaofeng.
Mu Shaofeng mumbled upon hearing, "Why do I smell a full-blown conspiracy?"
When Qi Yunqiao heard the news, she leaned over the dressing table and laughed heartily.
"My third auntie, she truly excels at scheming, coming up with such a plan! Impressive!"
"Indeed, this incident completely overshadows anything coming from the Xiaoyu family. And this way, proposing to Mu Family afterwards becomes perfectly reasonable."
"Young Master Heir, madam, Marquis Ye and Madam Ye brought Heir Ye here."
Qi Yunqiao and Mu Niancheng exchanged a glance, both thinking, their speed is truly swift.
"Let’s go and have a look."
"Come on, finally, I can sort out that brat."
But upon arriving at the main hall and seeing Ye Haoyang there as well, his confidence deflated a bit.
Even though he’s the elder brother-in-law, facing Ye Haoyang always made him a bit timid.
Seeing the odd expressions of several people in the hall, Qi Yunqiao asked, "Third Aunt, why have you come to our house at this time? Weren’t you supposed to be searching for the future wife of the Young Master Heir?"
Yang Chuxia awkwardly glared at her, wasn’t this sly girl asking what she already knew?
"Well, I’m here to propose a match."
"Oh? For whom?"
"Shuangshuang, isn’t your family only having Shuangshuang left unmarried?"
