When Mrs. Chen opened the door, she saw Gu Fei holding her chin with one hand, and staring at a colorful object on the table in a daze.

Mrs. Chen’s heart skipped a beat. Her daughter looked strange. Could she have someone in her heart?

And what was on the table?

It looked so beautiful. It was not an ordinary thing. Where did it come from?

Yesterday, she also went shopping all night, but she didn’t see any place selling such exquisite things!

Could it be given to her by some young man?

Mrs. Chen quietly retreated and closed the door.

As soon as she left the house, she pulled Gu Zhang into the room, closed the door, and whispered: “Why are you at ease when your daughter wants to open an inn in the city alone?”

Gu Zhang replied: “Don’t worry, my daughter is smart and capable, I trust her more than Dalang.”

Mrs. Chen choked: “You are not at ease, you are just too careless!”

“My daughter will be 15 in half a year. She is a girl, and she is out in public at such a young age. How can that be good in the future?”

Gu Zhang snorted: “What’s wrong with showing up in the public? This Ping’an City is not like the countryside at home. Don’t you see that the streets are full of girls?”

“Besides, since the day my daughter came back, I made up my mind. From now on, she can do whatever she likes. If she wants to get married, she can get married. If she doesn’t want to get married, I will support her for the rest of her life.”

Mrs. Chen glared at Gu Zhang: “What nonsense are you talking about? How can a girl not get married? Will she be alone for the rest of her life? Not only must she get married, but she must also marry a good young man so that I can feel at ease.”

“No matter how successful she is, she is still young. How can parents not plan for her?”

Gu Zhang patted her shoulder: “Okay, okay, I didn’t say that I wouldn’t let her get married. I just said that she can do whatever she wants.”

“Just plant the peppers and save more dowry for the girl. The girl is still young, so don’t worry about it.”

Mrs. Chen couldn’t tell him what she had just seen. The girl’s reputation was important, and she was just guessing.

She sighed: “And Erlang, he’s already 18. When I was at home, I asked someone to find a suitable family for him. Now that he’s settled down, we have to find him a suitable family.”

Gu Zhang casually said: “You decide on these matters.”

Mrs. Chen was worried: “I do want to, but–”

Gu Zhang was confused: “You mean Erlang? What’s wrong with him?”

Mrs. Chen was speechless: “Erlang’s eyes are always on Lanzhi, don’t you see it?”

Gu Zhang was stunned: “Is that true?”

He didn’t notice it.

Mrs. Chen said worriedly: “Erlang’s temper is a bit twisted. I want to find someone to find him a wife, but I’m afraid he won’t agree with it.”

Gu Zhang fell silent for a while.

Mrs. Chen said again: “Lanzhi, although she is down and out now, she is the daughter of the Marquis’s mansion after all. She is proficient in everything from music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and she is also good-looking. Erlang is neither good at literature nor martial arts, and can barely recognize a few words. How can he be worthy of her!”

“That’s not what I’m worried about. It’s okay whether he is worthy of her or not. As long as she is willing, it doesn’t matter.”

“But I’m worried that if he marries such a delicate wife, Erlang will have to serve her every day?”

“Marrying a wife is to carry on the family line and serve the man. I think if the silly boy marries her, he will have to serve her in return!”

Gu Zhang looked at Mrs. Chen: “Then what do you want to say?”

Mrs. Chen said unhappily: “I don’t know what to do, that’s why I am asking you to make a decision!”
