Heaven-Sent Farm Girl Builds Her Fortune And Captures His Heart

Chapter 320: Agreement

"Going to the Capital?"Jiang and Dong Yao exchanged glances, and immediately frowned simultaneously.

"How could that be?" Dong Yao said, "Your coming-of-age ceremony is on the tenth of September. You plan to go to the Capital, are you going to spend it on the road?"

"Of course not!" Shen Qinglan’s expression became serious, and she said earnestly, "Mother, when I do business in the future, I’ll definitely make it to the Capital. By then, I’ll inevitably travel back and forth, so I plan to buy a house in the Capital. That way, when our family goes to the Capital, we’ll have a place to stay."

"This..." Dong Yao frowned, "Are you thinking of having the ceremony in the Capital?"

"Yes!" Shen Qinglan nodded.

"Why not wait until after the ceremony to go to the Capital?" Jiang was puzzled, "Moreover, who will host the ceremony for you there?"

Shen Qinglan hesitated for a moment, but then spoke frankly, "Mother, Aunt, let me speak my mind."

She said, "It’s about Yan Yijie, one of the gentlemen we met last time at the Tianming Pavilion. He is getting married on the eighth of September."

"So?" The two were puzzled.

"He’s Yunfei’s friend. On his wedding day, Yunfei must not be absent," Shen Qinglan said. "Moreover, Yan Yijie’s bride is my friend!"

"Oh!" Jiang said, "You mean they are friends with you and Yunfei, so neither of you can be absent, and it’s convenient to hold the coming-of-age ceremony in the Capital?"

Shen Qinglan nodded, "That’s right!"

"This..." Jiang looked at Dong Yao, as if waiting for her advice.

"It’s feasible, but..." Dong Yao said, "What about the ceremony host?"

"No need to worry!" Shen Qinglan said, "Yan Yijie’s grandmother is the Prime Minister’s wife, very respected in the Capital. Yan Yijie said he would invite her to host my ceremony."

"The Prime Minister’s wife?!"

The two of them gasped simultaneously.

Dong Yao said, "We’re just ordinary folks, she’s an official’s wife. Will she be willing?"

"If she’s not willing, then it’s fine," Shen Qinglan said indifferently, "If she’s not willing, we have Aunt Duan and Madam Song, whose status is no less than the Prime Minister’s wife!"

For her, it’s just a formality; it doesn’t matter who hosts it.

"Ah?" Dong Yao was delighted, "Is Madam Duan and Madam Song also going?"

"Yes." Shen Qinglan said, "They’ll accompany us to the Capital."

"That’s wonderful!" Dong Yao said nervously, "Qinglan, you’ve met Madam Duan. How is she?"

Shen Qinglan chuckled, "Don’t worry, Mother. Aunt Duan is very nice. You’ve also met Luo Tianjie, he’s a big brother’s friend, and Aunt Duan is his aunt. The Luo family’s character is very good."

"That’s good!" Dong Yao smiled, "Then let’s go, mother has lived most of her life without even going to the Prefecture, so while my bones can still handle the journey, let’s go."

"And Aunt..." Shen Qinglan looked at Jiang.

"Let’s go." Jiang smiled, "Your mother agreed, so Auntie supports her decision."

Shen Qinglan was delighted, and she smiled, "It’s settled, we’ll go together then!"

She looked at Dong Yao and said, "Mother, remember to inform Uncle and Aunt."

"Your uncle and aunt might not be able to go," Dong Yao said, "Your cousin-in-law is pregnant and can’t do heavy work. Your cousins are busy with farm work, and your aunt and uncle are busy making and selling tofu, very busy."

"Then let’s wait for another time," Shen Qinglan smiled, "Later, I’ll take uncle and aunt to the Capital together."
