The Fierce Farm Girl Has A Secret Space

Chapter 1772: Chapter 1772: Congratulations (5)

Wei Qishi naturally knew that her husband had gone to the concubine’s room, and in a fit of anger, she threw two teacups, thinking about tidying up that little demon in a few days. But she quickly calmed down and sent for Wei Zhangshi. She was the family head’s wife and was the legitimate elder sister-in-law. To discuss matters, Wei Zhangshi naturally had to come to see her.

If Wei Yao were to marry into the Zhao Family, it would be quite an elevation in status. At that time, Wei Zhangshi would have to thank her, and after raising that girl for so many years, she could finally contribute something to the family. By then, they would be connected to the Governor.

The Governor, oh, he’s the top-ranking official of the entire Changhuai State, a third-rank official, much higher in position than the fifth-rank uncle in the capital, and more accessible. By that time, the Wei Family would be able to dominate the whole Changhuai State.

Wei Zhangshi arrived quite quickly, entering with red eyes: ”Elder sister-in-law, I’m not sure why you called me here?”

”Has the second brother not woken up yet?” Wei Qishi feigned concern with a few inquiries.

”He woke up a bit, but was dizzy, so he took some medicine and went back to sleep,” Wei Zhangshi sighed, ”Elder sister-in-law, if there’s nothing urgent, I’d like to go back and take care of him...”

”Sit down, I have some good news to share with you...”

Wei Zhangshi sat down reluctantly, appearing very submissive and restrained.

Wei Qishi first despised the other woman inwardly, seeing her as petty. Luckily, she wasn’t around all the time; otherwise, dealing with such a sister-in-law every day would be annoying. Back then, her mother-in-law was also muddle-headed; how could she let her only granddaughter be raised by such a mother? She should have been raised in the family.

But it didn’t matter; once the arrangement with the Zhao Family was settled, as the legitimate elder aunt, she would spend effort on proper upbringing.

”Cough, cough.” Wei Zhangshi waited for quite a while without the other speaking, so she coughed softly as a reminder.

”Dear sister-in-law, I must congratulate you,” Wei Qishi hurriedly snapped back to attention, revealing an exaggerated smile.

”Congratulate me for what?” Wei Zhangshi raised her eyes in astonishment.

”It’s Yaoyao.” Wei Qishi laughed, ”In the blink of an eye, Yaoyao is already sixteen, a young lady...”

Wei Zhangshi’s heart suddenly sank, feeling an ominous foreboding.

”Although Yaoyao is a minor daughter, she hasn’t properly learned the rules, but her appearance is still good,” Wei Qishi laughed exaggeratedly, ”That Old Zhao likes good looks, but Yaoyao is fortunate; she’s to be a proper wife, not a concubine... In the future, our Wei Family might have to rely on Yaoyao for support. Don’t you think I should congratulate you?”

”Wait a moment.” Wei Zhangshi suddenly stood up, ”Elder sister-in-law, who is this Old Zhao you’re talking about?”

”Who else could it be? Of course, it’s the Zhao Family from the east of our Prefectural City,” Wei Qishi raised her brows slightly, ”They are our Governor’s Yue Family, sister-in-law, aren’t you aware?”

”And which Old Zhao is that?”

”Naturally, it’s the family head, the Governor’s brother-in-law...”

”If I recall correctly, that Old Zhao is in his forties this year, and his eldest grandson is already three years old...”

”Oh, so what?” Wei Qishi laughed, ”Wei Old Zhao is handsome with a wealthy background, and don’t mention forty, even at sixty many young girls would be willing to marry him. He has taken a liking to Yaoyao; that’s your good fortune...”
