CHAPTER 784: CHAPTER 786, THE FINAL ULTIMATUM (1 MORE)

"That would be wonderful. We’ll go on a spring outing together, watch the Dragon Boat Race on the Dragon Boat Festival, and pick chrysanthemum flowers on the Double Ninth Festival. To be accompanied by a celestial being like the Commandery Princess, even thinking about it makes this old lady want to wake up laughing!"

"Certainly!" Yun Jinnian replied.

Yet when the time came, they would probably only be able to meet once.

She and the Feng Family’s elder mistress had no common topics of conversation to begin with, but since the elder mistress was also quite learned, she could introduce her to her mother.

"Then it’s settled!"

The Feng Family’s elder mistress very much hoped that Yun Jinnian would marry into the Feng Family, especially after learning of Feng Wushuang’s feelings.

She was even more intent on making a match.

After all, love could develop through companionship.

Her son wasn’t bad at all, exceptionally talented in literature and proficient in martial arts, though few knew that Feng Wushuang was skilled in martial arts.

If it didn’t work out, she would have to press her son to get married.

After taking the pulse of the Feng Family’s elder mistress, Yun Jinnian and Han Tianci bid farewell and left. Feng Wushuang escorted the two to the door, watching their carriage disappear into the distance before turning to go back to the elder mistress’s courtyard.

"Mother!"

The Feng Family’s elder mistress smiled and beckoned Feng Wushuang to sit.

"Happy, aren’t you?"

Feng Wushuang smiled without saying a word.

"I know what’s in your heart, but Wushuang, you’re not getting any younger. If by the end of the year it’s still not settled, how about you find someone else to marry?"

Upon hearing this, Feng Wushuang’s smile froze on his face, stunned and shocked as he looked at the elder mistress.

But he understood why she had made this decision.

His spirits quickly deflated.

The Feng Family’s lineage had been passed down through three generations, and it could not end with him.

But he wanted to know if, after having Yun Jinnian in his heart, he could truly live with another woman?

"I won’t force you to marry anyone in particular, as long as that person treats you well," she said.

As for the rest, she dared not press for it or ask for too much.

Feng Wushuang was silent for a long time before he cautiously spoke, "Mother, let’s follow your suggestion. If by the end of the year nothing is settled, I’ll find someone to marry!"

"That’s good. If there’s anything I can do for you, just tell me, and I’ll definitely support you!"

"Thank you, Mother. You should get some rest. I need to get going now!"

"Go ahead!"

Feng Wushuang left the courtyard, suddenly feeling a bit lost.

He paused for a moment before stepping out of the gate...

The Feng Family’s elder mistress felt worried.

As a woman, she could see that Yun Jinnian was very graceful and elegant. Even when she saw Feng Wushuang, she was merely polite, with a gentle demeanor and a smile on her lips, but there was no trace of eagerness.

Even her admiration was out of politeness, nothing more.

With this, did Wushuang truly stand a chance?

In the carriage

Han Tianci mentioned Feng Wushuang, "The books in Big Brother Feng’s study are quite good!"

"We have many books at home. You should copy a couple of them to give to him. And when you have time, visit your second sister more and mingle with the scholars!"

"Alright, I’ll do as you say, Sister!"

When they arrived back at the Han Family’s residence, the butler immediately said to Yun Jinnian, "Miss, the Yun Family has sent people!"

"Who?"

"It’s the Yun Family’s Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, Eighth, Ninth Misses, and your cousin; they’re all in the warm living room now!"

Yun Jinnian frowned slightly.

Why had they all come?

"Has Mother seen them?"

"No, the mistress said she wasn’t feeling well and had Bai Que greet them."

"Did they come before or after lunch?"

"After lunch!"

Han Tianci arched his eyebrow, "Do they know the Han Family won’t serve them lunch?"

Yun Jinnian laughed, "Probably so. You go back first, I’ll go see them!"

Since they were here, she couldn’t just avoid them.
