Chapter 720: The Infatuated Man_1

Mrs. Xue's brows relaxed, and after pondering for a while, she understood Mrs. Yang's intention, "Ah, that's quite a coincidence. My husband's cousin has a suitable girl of age, sixteen this year. She's read some books, and both her looks and character are decent."

Zhulan asked, "Why hasn't she been betrothed at sixteen?"

There were unmarried girls of that age, but very few had not been betrothed yet.

Mrs. Xue explained, "My husband's cousin passed away early, leaving behind a widow and orphans, and the cousin's younger sister was too soft-hearted to bear the family burdens. The cousin had four children, two girls and two boys. The older girls took on the household responsibilities. The eldest daughter got married at seventeen, and the one I mentioned is also waiting until seventeen, so she hasn't been betrothed yet."
