Qin Yongmei said, “I’m just worried about you. Look at you, you don’t have a family on your side and you don’t really interact with the wives of the City of Brisk. Who will you invite on Qingqing’s behalf?”
“You need to at least find someone appropriate to brush Qiao Qing’s hair, right?”
“I have already found one for Niannian. He’s the son of a noble family. I asked him to come and it cost me a fortune. If you really cannot find someone, you can let me know in advance. I can ask my connections to find someone for you. I’ll even make sure he’s just as good as the one I invited. What do you say?”
“I don’t need your fake niceness. Leave, leave, leave! I know for a fact you came here to gloat!” He Wanqing had nothing clean to say as she pushed Qin Yongmei out the door. Then, she slammed the door shut.
Qin Yongmei almost fell down the stairs when she was shoved out. She stared at the tightly shut door and couldn’t help but snicker.
So what she was here to gloat?
The woman inside grew up in an orphanage and didn’t even have her own family. Yet she dared to try to compete against others every chance she got. What a joke!
Qin Yongmei will show her this time. She will prove how her daughter is the best at the coming of age party!
Inside the living room, Mu Jinghang watched over He Wanqing and asked, “What did she mean? Getting someone to comb her hair? Is that important?”
He Wanqing sat down on the couch and exhaled deeply a few times, “It’s a tradition for girls in the City of Brisk. It’s like ancient times. At the coming of age party, normally the brother of the girl combs her hair. It represents his wish for her to have a fulfilling and smooth life.”
“If the girl doesn’t have a brother, then a single man born on January 1st is invited to do the job. The rule is that the higher the status of the man, the better it is for the girl.”
She gave Mu Jinghang and Jun Yexuan a look, “I remember you are both from the Capital City? When are your birthdays?”
Mu Jinghang answered, “Neither mine nor third brother’s birthdays meet the requirement.”
Then, he paused and glanced at Jun Yexuan, “If I remember correctly, young master Qi was born on January 1.”
He Wanqing asked, “What young master Qi? Where’s he from? How’s his background?”
Mu Jinghang chuckled, “He’s also from the Capital City. As for his background... The Qi family is considered the second most powerful in the city.”
“Young master Qi himself is also considered a man with the highest status. Of course, that’s excluding third... ugh, I mean. Would he qualify?”
He Wanqing frowned, “No way. There’s no way I can get someone that important.”
Mu Jinghang said in all seriousness, “Auntie, my mom was the nanny for young master Qi when he was a baby. He’s indebted to her. I think, if my mom asks him personally, he has no reason to say no. Why don’t you leave it to us.”
Chen Ming, who stood on the side, rolled his eyes. One of the wives from the number one most powerful family in the Capital City was the nanny to another powerful clan’s son? This man sure could make up stories!
He had thought that the madame was aware of those two’s identities.
But now it looked like other than knowing they were friends and they came from the Capital City, she knew nothing.
He Wanqing nodded hesitantly, “Then, I’ll go take care of the other stuff.”
After He Wanqing left, Mu Jinghang looked over to Jun Yexuan, “Third brother, you know how Qi Yusen is. Would he want to get involved in something like this? Should you contact him or should I? Third brother? What are you looking at?”
Mu Jinghang then peeked at the cell phone screen Jun Yexuan was staring at.
On it, was a forum thread with the title, “Girlfriend is about to turn into an adult. What gift is appropriate for her coming of age party?”
Girlfriend?!
Qingqing accepted to being his girlfriend?
