Chapter 583: The Matriarch’s Idea 2 (1/2)
He Ying had an instant of panic when she heard that question, but she quickly calmed down.
As for why her daughter had appeared in the outer court, it was her doing of course! However, she had arranged for He Erlang to be the one. She had no idea why it had suddenly turned into He Dalang!
However, since her mother was casting her suspicions on her now, she couldn’t admit to that.
In order to finish up her plans, she had no choice but to use He Dalang now.
He Changqi was the eldest grandson of House Jing’an. He was going to inherit the countship in the future. If she was really able to marry Miss Zhen to him, it wouldn’t be that bad of a choice compared to her original plans.
He Ying’s target shifted in the span of a few seconds of thinking.
Anyway, things had already happened. She just had to push Miss Zhen onto He Dalang no matter what.
He Ying refused to speak. She only continued crying in sobs, annoying the matriarch even further.
The problem at hand was tricky. The victim here was her granddaughter, who had only been living in the estate for a few months. However, in that short amount of time, that lovely flower had been plucked. Pan Nianzhen didn’t have much status to begin with. Now that her body had been ruined, who could she marry?
Even if they managed to get her married, she would only be a disgrace to House Jing’an.
Matriarch He bowed her head. She caught sight of her eldest grandson from the corner of her eyes.
He didn’t have any heirs and he had just divorced. Even though he was nearing thirty, his previous wife had only left him two daughters.
Miss Zhen was Dalang’s cousin and he had interacted with her a few times before. Dalang was meant to inherit the title of Count Jing’an, so he couldn’t stay single forever. He had to have an heir someday.
Compared to bringing in an arrogant young noble miss from the outside, why not simply give Miss Zhen to him in marriage? Miss Zhen was still young, so surely she would be able to give him a heir?
Eldest Madam’s non-stop crying had made everyone fidgety.
