Chapter 422: Chapter 422 So that the daughter can see what reality is

Gui Hongmei could see that Jiang Jingya was truly angry. "Look at what Auntie Jiang is saying; that’s not what I meant at all. It’s just that I heard some rumors and thought I’d come back to see if I could help with anything. Otherwise, Weidong will surely blame me when he returns."

Her words sounded sincere, but Jiang Jingya didn’t believe a single one. "Enough. I don’t care what your purpose was in coming back, just don’t get any ideas about Jingrui’s marriage."

Gui Hongmei said with an awkward smile, "Auntie Jiang, how could I be so insensitive? Besides, Weidong told me Jingrui has already found his life partner, so as his sister-in-law, naturally, I know better than to be tactless. I really do have something to discuss this time, but it’s not about Jingrui."

As she spoke, she glanced towards her young sister-in-law sitting nearby. "Auntie Jiang, I was thinking our Jiayuan isn’t getting any younger, and I have a suitable candidate in mind, so I wanted to come back and discuss it with you."

Huo Jiayuan hadn’t expected the focus to shift to her. "Sister-in-law, I have my own ideas about my affairs; there’s no need for you to worry. You should be more concerned about Xiaodong’s wedding; there isn’t much time left."

Gui Hongmei felt awkward being rejected repeatedly. "Jiayuan, it’s not that your sister-in-law wants to rush you into marriage, but you’ll be twenty-two after the New Year. I’m only looking out for you. It doesn’t look good if even your younger nieces and nephews are getting married while you show no signs of settling down. You’ll become the talk of the compound. Take your sister-in-law’s advice: don’t be so stubborn. Marry someone suitable. The older a woman gets, the less desirable she becomes on the marriage market. I’m only saying this from the bottom of my heart because I consider you family."

The words were well-intentioned, but coming from Gui Hongmei, Jiang Jingya felt uncomfortable. "Alright, I’ll consider their marriages. You don’t need to worry about it."

Seeing that today wasn’t a good time to discuss these matters, Gui Hongmei didn’t press the issue, thinking she would have her husband mention it to the Old Master later.

Huo Jiayuan was stunned. Indeed, what happened back then was Du Shujian’s parents’ fault against her mother. But asking them to come and apologize would not be easy. She feared even Du Shujian wouldn’t agree, let alone the two directly involved.
