Chapter 491: Chapter 490: Worried about the Marriage Affairs of Sons and Daughters_1
 

“Great, let’s just go to Qi Kingdom for fun!”

Little Kingfisher perked up upon hearing this, “Whether it’s South Qi or North Qi, we’re already at the border, it would be a pity not to take a look.”

“There are soldiers guarding the passes, how can we go there so easily?”

Lin Qingluo smiled and rejected the idea, “Let’s not cross the border, but instead we can follow along the border within Fengqi, enjoying the mountains and rivers, and exploring the terrain. Maybe we can even meet the soldiers guarding the pass.”

Little Kingfisher’s eyes shone brightly, “Is the Lin Clan’s army stationed at the border of South Qi?”

“Not at the moment.”

Lin Qingluo became gloomy, “According to Fourth Brother, Nanqi Kingdom’s power is weaker, and it has been at peace with Fengqi for decades, so the border defense pressure is relatively small.”

“The border army’s generals are mostly from wealthy families, who spend a lot of money to earn military achievements and gain glory for their families,”

“The Empress is incompetent and the soldiers under her command are useless.”

Little Kingfisher gave a fair evaluation, “Of course, except for the Lin Clan’s army.”

“Let’s settle on this.”

Lin Qingluo’s big eyes sparkled, “Cross the Qilian Mountains and head east.”

“Good, finally going on a journey.”

Little Kingfisher cheered and frolicked, “It’s time for this baby to show off her prowess.”

Early the next day, in the bamboo house.

Ye Xue’e and Lady Feng sat facing each other, looking troubled.

Both mothers were worried about their children’s marriages.

“Brother Yu will be eighteen soon, and he hasn’t found any girl he likes.”

Ye Xue’e rubbed her temples with a headache, “If we keep delaying, all the good girls will be taken away by others.”

“The same goes for our Feng Liu.”

Lady Feng sighed, “She gets angry whenever I mention marriage, I can’t even say a word.”

“Miss Feng is straightforward and doesn’t seem stubborn.”

Ye Xue’e gently comforted her, “Perhaps you are pushing too hard, communicate more with her, ask her what kind of person she likes, and then help her choose.”

“I’ve asked her!”

Lady Feng felt frustrated just thinking about it, “I’ve asked dozens of times, but she never gives a friendly face, either impatient or simply running out, and not seen for a whole day.”

“Just like Jinyu, can’t say more than half a sentence.”

Ye Xue’e’s eyes dimmed, “Nowadays children are so hard to manage, not like our time, when we just followed our parents’ arrangements and matchmaker’s words, and once the bridal sedan entered the house, we were husband and wife.”

“Exactly.”

Lady Feng also lamented, “Nowadays children have their own ideas and no longer take their parents’ words seriously.”

“Mother, what are you worrying about in the early morning?”

Feng Liu, with her keen hearing, overheard the conversation between the two mothers and complained unhappily through the bamboo door, “Who would put their children’s marriages on their lips every day, isn’t it tiring?”

“You hear that? I didn’t even ask her yet, and she’s already annoyed, like a firecracker.”

Lady Feng was upset, pointing outside the door and scolding lightly.

“I like Liu’s personality, let her be our daughter-in-law.”

Second Aunt Lin just finished breakfast and was strolling around the bamboo forest to help digestion when she heard Feng Liu’s complaint and joined in the conversation with a teasing smile.

“Second Aunt, why are you doing this too? I’m not talking to you anymore, I’m leaving.”

Feng Liu’s cheeks flushed red with embarrassment, and she stomped her foot angrily before running off like the wind.

“Sister-in-law, you’re up early today! Have you had breakfast yet?”

Ye Xue’e opened the window, looked out and saw Second Aunt Lin, her eyes filled with concern.

After Second Uncle Lin passed away, Second Aunt Lin became sick from heartbreak, but fortunately, Lin Qingluo took good care of her for a while, and her complexion has improved significantly.
