Returning home, Qi Zhenzhen briefly told Gu Sinian about Liu Ye'er. Gu Sinian was not surprised. "That girl's eyes were very shifty. She deliberately tried to touch me when serving the dishes, but I dodged her."
So, not only was she eyeing Zhang Xiaoniu, but she also had her sights set on her man?
"People like that are truly..." Qi Zhenzhen was somewhat indignant.
"The person has already been driven away, and Xiaoniu knows the whole story. It's also a case of preventing trouble before it happens," Gu Sinian comforted Qi Zhenzhen. "No matter what her intentions were, they have all come to nothing. So, there's no need to distress yourself over such a person."
Qi Zhenzhen nodded. "I'm truly fortunate to have gone to Mingyue's place today, otherwise..."
Gu Sinian peeled a grape for Qi Zhenzhen. "Since nothing happened, don't overthink it. Excessive worrying is bad for your health."
Qi Zhenzhen ate the grape from Gu Sinian's hand. "Mmm, I won't think about it anymore, I'll listen to you. However, about finding a wet nurse, you still need to mention it to Aunt."
"Alright," Gu Sinian agreed.
Consort An had always been very fond of Qi Zhenzhen and had wanted to invite her to stay in the palace for a while. However, considering the various troublesome characters in the palace, Consort An dared not risk Qi Zhenzhen entering the palace. She only occasionally sent palace servants with gifts to inquire about Qi Zhenzhen's situation.
"Coincidentally, I need to discuss the matter of Yan Family's sixth son with Jinrong," Gu Sinian said.
Qi Zhenzhen also knew about this. "Have you found out?"
Gu Sinian nodded. "Yes, I have. Yan Family's sixth son indeed has someone he likes! He kept it very well hidden, and even the Yan family only found out recently. It's been two years. She's the daughter of a fisherman, and her status is a bit low, which is why Yan Family's sixth son kept it secret. Now, that woman is pregnant, and Yan Family's sixth son has no choice but to confess to his elders."
"They..."
"Yan Family's sixth son fell into the sea from a cliff while suppressing bandits and was rescued by a fisherman. The fisherman's daughter took care of him. Being a young man in his prime, they naturally fell for each other," Gu Sinian said.
"How could Yan Family's sixth son get pregnant without the consent of his elders? If he cared for that girl, he should have found a way to give her a respectable status before having a child with her..." Qi Zhenzhen couldn't understand why Yan Family's sixth son, if he considered her his beloved, would only confess to his elders after she became pregnant. This way, even if the fisherman's daughter married Yan Family's sixth son as she wished, she would still be criticized. Strictly speaking, this was a union without a matchmaker, and if pursued, it could lead to severe consequences.
Gu Sinian's brows were filled with sarcasm. It was good this way; such a person, in his opinion, was not worthy of Jinrong.
"I think Jinrong is very fond of Yan Family's sixth son. She..." Qi Zhenzhen was a little worried.
"Jinrong is very sensible; she won't use her status to force anyone. Besides, Yan Family's sixth son is not worth it," Gu Sinian said sarcastically.
"Then, you should talk to Jinrong properly and comfort her. There are thousands of good men in this world, and there will surely be one suitable for her," Qi Zhenzhen instructed. "Also, tell Aunt not to scold her. At this time, Jinrong needs her comfort the most."
"Alright, I will tell Aunt all these things," Gu Sinian agreed one by one.
"Why don't you ask Jinrong if she wants to come and stay at our mansion for a few days? Sometimes, it's harder to speak about things on one's mind to the closest people. She and I get along quite well, and she really likes the stories of the sheep and the wolf that I tell her. Perhaps it can distract her," Qi Zhenzhen said after some thought.
"Alright, if she wants to come, I'll bring her back," Gu Sinian agreed.
