Xia Ruqing, amidst her surprise, asked about the origin of this marriage proposal.
"It's quite unexpected for a family like the Yang Family with such high status."
She's not belittling her own sister.
Rather, she knows that such children of noble families,
especially those who are the eldest son meant to fully inherit the family business, have very high standards for a prospective bride.
Whether it's appearance or demeanor, reputation or family background, there can be no mistake.
And Cai Yang, clearly, doesn't meet these standards.
Not to mention the incident some time ago that harmed her reputation.
Her status as a daughter from a secondary branch is already a disqualifier.
Thus, Xia Ruqing was quite curious.
Dong'er simply laughed.
"It's all thanks to our young lady's cleverness and skills!"
With that, she recounted the whole story.
It turns out that last month,
Lady Bai of the Yang Family happened to encounter Lady Wen and Xia Caiying at the temple.
