My Inner Thought is Exposed! The Villain Family Defy Their Fate!-Chapter 70 - 41: Seventh Uncle, I Hope the CP I Ship Doesn’t End in Tragedy
Testing to see if he would choose Yin Shuang now.
Lady Yun immediately realized this and laughed, "Right, how did I not think of that? Maybe Seventh has someone he likes after all."
If Yun Zhan listened to Xiao Si’s Heart and decided on Yin Shuang, Lady Yun would be happy to see it happen.
Although Miss Yin Shuang is currently just Seventh’s personal maid, and her appearance... But those aren’t problems; appearance is merely superficial, what matters is the feeling and intention between the two.
She finds Miss Yin Shuang quite nice, quiet in nature, yet her actions are clean and graceful. More importantly, she is wholeheartedly devoted to Seventh in Xiao Si’s Heart.
Such deep affection, it would be a pity to disappoint.
"Thank you, elder brother and sister-in-law, for your concern. I’ll refrain from looking at those portraits today."
Yun Zhan stood up, a smile tugging at his lips, "But I promise my sister-in-law that by next spring, the marriage will be settled."
"Alright, with your promise, I’m relieved. Then we won’t look at the portrait, as you wish."
As soon as Lady Yun’s voice fell, Yun Wanqing’s inner thoughts immediately began to stir.
[Eh, the change in situation is way too quick.]
[Mom clearly said to let Seventh Uncle look at the girls’ portraits, why suddenly he’s not looking? Seventh Uncle promises marriage next year but isn’t even looking at the portraits right now; who’s he going to marry? Baby, I’m completely confused here.]
[No, no, that’s not the main point; the point is, does Sister Yin Shuang still have a chance? Aside from shipping mom and dad, I’m also rooting for Seventh Uncle and Sister Yin Shuang!]
[Seventh Uncle, please don’t let my ship face a sad ending, otherwise I’ll be really upset.]
Everyone: "..."
What does the CP/BE at the end mean?
What is all this nonsense?
Lady Yun and Yun Zheng vaguely know that CP means a pair or combination, but what does BE mean? Does it mean separated?
As for everyone else, they couldn’t understand a single letter and felt like they were reading an ancient text, although it didn’t stop them from increasing their vocabulary +1.
Yun Zhan soon left, Yun Zheng and the twins also stepped out.
In the bedroom, only three family members remained.
Lady Yun held the album and looked toward Yun Wanchen.
"Chen’er, it’s your turn. Take a look, and see if there’s anyone you feel a connection with. Once your Seventh Uncle’s betrothal is settled after New Year, we’ll arrange yours too."
Yun Wanchen: "..."
Even someone with a broken leg isn’t spared; how exactly can one avoid being pushed into marriage?
"Yes."
He gave a wry smile, took the album Lady Yun handed over, and opened it to reveal a feminine beauty shy as a peach, modest as a willow.
Lady Yun was earnestly introducing at his side, yet he showed no more emotion.
"This is Princess Xianyi’s daughter, named Xue Jinyu, sixteen years old. Her betrothed died unexpectedly, holding up the marriage. I heard Princess Xianyi is eager to find her another match."
[Oh dear mom, this Miss Xue is not suitable for elder brother.]
[Princess Xianyi is anxious about finding Miss Xue another match not because her fiancé died and she can’t find a good marriage, but because she was deceived by a poor scholar and has given herself to him. She’s already at the point of marrying no one but him.]
[Princess Xianyi despises the scholar’s poverty and short ambition, fearing Miss Xue will suffer if she marries him, hence the rush to find a nobleman of equal standing to take over.]
[But Miss Xue, driven by this breakup of lovebirds, has rebelled, caring only for the poor scholar. She wouldn’t marry elder brother if hell froze over.]
[If mom forcefully tries to match her, it’s likely to provoke a great deal of trouble, resulting in a big joke, and possibly forming grudges instead of marriage.]
Lady Yun: "..."
There’s such a story behind this?
No wonder people say Princess Xianyi is worried to death over Miss Xue’s marriage; she had been curious about why there was any rush since Miss Xue, after all, is the daughter of a Commandery Princess, and her father a Court official, surely she wouldn’t have trouble marrying.
Turns out, there’s a hidden story.
"Mom, this one doesn’t appeal to me. Let’s see the next one."
Yun Wanchen closed the album and handed it back to Lady Yun, both Lady Yun and Yun Wanqing breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
[Yay, elder brother didn’t fancy Miss Xue, potential trouble averted.]
"Alright, then try looking at this one~"
Lady Yun smiled as she handed over another album.
"This is Lord Zhang’s daughter, Zhang Meng, fifteen years old, still unbetrothed."
[This one’s not suitable either.]
[Mom, although Zhang Meng has never been betrothed, she isn’t the real daughter. Mrs. Zhang was deceived by servants during childbirth, swapping the baby, and soon the real daughter will be found.]
[Now, if mom gets involved with the Zhang Family, when the real versus fake daughter scenario kicks off, who will elder brother marry?]
