Chapter 1147: Chapter 1147: A Mysterious Background
But they were also puzzled, not knowing what kind of happy event Hao Yansen was going to announce.
It’s certainly something big; otherwise, he wouldn’t hold a banquet so solemnly.
However, Shangguan Ya and the others couldn’t help but leak some information.
When Qin Mei’e called other noblewomen, she unintentionally revealed the relationship between Shangguan Ya and Hao Yansen.
Everyone knew about Shangguan Ya visiting the Hao Family as a guest, and those noblewomen were trying to probe her.
Qin Mei’e also deliberately boasted, naturally spreading the news.
In short, her words clearly implied that Old Master Hao was very fond of Shangguan Ya, and Hao Yansen liked her too. The banquet is related to her, and as for the announcement of the happy event, everyone will find out then.
But upon hearing it, it was obvious the happy event Hao Yansen was going to announce had to do with Shangguan Ya.
Could it be that the Hao Family really favored Shangguan Ya, wanting her to be Hao Yansen’s wife?
Many people were uneasy, especially other single girls of the same age, who secretly expressed various discontents.
Really, why did Hao Yansen choose Shangguan Ya?
Besides her good family background, she has nothing impressive, and her character is really dubious. Is Hao Yansen blind to fancy her?
But they had to admit, Shangguan Ya did visit the Hao Family, and it seemed that Old Master Hao was indeed fond of her.
Could it be true? Hao Yansen really has his eyes on Shangguan Ya?
But why, shouldn’t he be interested in someone like Jiang Kerou?
Some smart people have probably guessed the reason.
Years ago, the Shangguan Family wasn’t that wealthy, just a small family. It was after Shangguan Hai married Rumeng, under her management, that Shangguan Hai’s business began to thrive.
During that time, the Shangguan’s enterprise was extremely prominent, with a startling rate of wealth growth.
But one day, their business suddenly had problems. Due to a decision-making mistake, it nearly went bankrupt.
Just when everyone was waiting to see them collapse, they quickly recovered and flourished once again.
At the time, everyone was dumbstruck, not expecting them to overcome the crisis and resolve the issue so easily.
And no one knew how they managed it.
However, there was a rumor that Rumeng had very deep connections, and it was her intervention that revived the business.
Since then, everyone knew about the Shangguan Family’s mysterious background and dared not provoke them easily.
It was only later, after things happened to Rumeng and others, that Shangguan Tao took over everything, leading to the gradual decline of the Shangguan Family. But even a starved camel is larger than a horse; the wealth accumulated by the Shangguan Family back then was enough for them to live grandly for a lifetime.
And people gradually forgot the Shangguan Family’s myth and glory at that time.
Now, upon reflection, everyone was very shocked.
Could it be that the Shangguan Family really has a very mysterious background, hence the Hao’s choice of Shangguan Ya?
Thinking about it this way, everything makes sense.
It seems that the Hao Family knows their history, otherwise they wouldn’t choose Shangguan Ya. Indeed, marriages within noble families are not simple, and the woman Hao Yansen chooses will certainly not be simple.
But Shangguan Ya, this woman, apart from her family background, really has nothing else!
Anyway, the girls were all resentful, but they also found some consolation.
Although they weren’t chosen, at least Jiang Kerou wasn’t chosen either!
