Bai Yi signaled a few maids, and Zhi Qin among others exited. Xi Yu glanced at Yueyao, saw Yueyao nod her head, and also left.
Once everyone else in the room had left, Yueyao finally asked, "Has Zhao Yuner been betrothed yet?"
Mingzhu shook her head.
Frowning, Yueyao said, "She hasn't been betrothed yet she resides permanently in your residence. Could it be that there is someone of a suitable age for her there? If she doesn't hurry to discuss marriage after reaching marriageable age, she won't be able to marry into a good family. Bai Yi's disdainful demeanor shows that this woman is very calculating. I suspect this girl is aiming for the Heir of Marquis Jingning."
Mingzhu shook her head, "No, even if there were someone of the appropriate age, she wouldn't be eligible." Even if she were the concubine-born child of Marquis Jingning's Residence, Zhao Yuner, the daughter of a declined household, would not be worthy.
Mingzhu was naive, but she was not unaware.
