Chapter 473: Official’s Miss
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Madam Ma forced a smile. “Madam, you’re joking, right?”
How could she dare to take the daughters of an official to be her daughters-in-law!
Her Eldest Sister-in-law’s family could attract an official’s daughter because she could have the status of the eldest daughter-in-law. It was good to have a higher status. She could restrain her younger siblings.
She was also happy to see it.
But what about her own family?
Her husband was a county scholar. Previously, in the village, she felt very proud. Their Hu Family Village only had two county scholars. One was Old Master Hu, and the other was her husband.
Was his status was not high?
In the end, when they arrived at the prefecture capital, even the gatekeepers in the academy were all top students.
Her husband, on the other hand, was only a Candidate who had barely obtained the eligibility to participate in the provincial-level examination. He was only slightly better than the supplementary students who failed to obtain the eligibility to participate in the provincial-level examination.
Those who had obtained the eligibility could vouch for the other students and give them the chance to participate in the county level imperial exam, but the students who failed did not.
The subaltern students, who were even lower ranked, did not even have the chance to participate in the imperial examinations.
These things were slowly figured out by Madam Ma herself. Over the past few months, the couple had suffered a lot and she had gained a lot of knowledge.
“Sister, what are you talking about? Why would I joke with you?” The magistrate’s wife said with a smile.
The magistrate’s wife was not talking nonsense. Even if her husband did not tell her the background of this family, she still had to repay the kindness of this person’s mother-in-law for saving her life.
By offering her daughters’ hand in marriage to the old woman’s grandsons, she saw it as a way to show her gratitude. Though it may seem like an odd arrangement, at the moment it was considered a touching tale of gratitude and kindness.
Madam Ma didn’t dare to agree. “Madam, our two boys grew up in the village. They’re not knowledgeable and are very naughty.”
How were they worthy of the daughters of an official?
The magistrate’s wife smiled and did not continue. Instead, she said to the maidservant at the side, “Go and call your Eldest Miss and Second Miss over.”
The maidservant agreed and went to the backyard to call the two girls over.
Magistrate Wei and his wife had two sons and two daughters, both in their twenties.
Today, the eldest daughter is 16 years old and the youngest is 12 years old.
The eldest daughter was in her room and was discussing marriage. The youngest daughter had also had a matchmaker come to visit her.
Magistrate Wei’s eldest daughter was called Wei Qianying, and his youngest daughter was Wei Xianyin. When the two of them walked over together, Madam Ma’s eyes lit up.
The two girls looked extremely proper. The older one was already mature. She had some light rouge and makeup on her face, and she appeared graceful.
Her every move was gentle and refined.
Although the younger one still looked like a little girl, one could tell that she would definitely be extraordinary in the future. She was wearing a light yellow embroidered dress that reached her ankles. There was a light green tassel around her waist, and she could not conceal the cuteness on her face.
When they arrived, the two of them bowed to the magistrate’s wife. “Mother.”
When the magistrate’s wife introduced Madam Ma to them, they bowed to her. “Auntie Ma, good day.”
Madam Ma couldn’t help but sigh in her heart. They were indeed daughters of an official. Their every word and action were all very pleasing!
However, for some reason, compared to these two official ladies, she liked the eldest branch’s Young Miss Qu more.
Erlang had once written to them about his future sister-in-law, Qu Shuqiu, being engaged to their family. Although she was polite, she had a bright personality and was an easy-going sister-in-law.
These few words made Madam Ma have a good impression of her.
They were farmers, so they naturally did not want to take in a princess to serve.
“I wonder what Little Sister thinks of my two daughters?” the magistrate’s wife asked.
Madam Ma came back to her senses and nodded repeatedly. “The two ladies are very good. They’re good-looking, have good manners, and speak well. They’re all very good.” “Then which of my two daughters do you think is suitable to be your daughter-in-law?” The magistrate’s wife asked warmly.
This stumped Madam Ma.
They were both very good, but they were not suitable for her child!
The registrar’s daughter was already scary enough.. Now, there was even a magistrate’s daughter!
