Chapter 210: Set Up An Arena To Select A Groom

The Dowager Duchess shook her head in defeat. A thought suddenly occurred to her, and she became a little troubled. “But it’s not so easy to select an adopted son-in-law. Although we won’t have to look at their family background, we shouldn’t be negligent with their character and appearance.”

In her opinion, Weiwei was a girl with an infinite resource of ideas, so she was not too worried to voice this concern.

Lu Liangwei nodded. “You’re right, Grandmother. We need to consider our choices carefully. We don’t want people with bad character, and we don’t want people who don’t look good either.”

Her words amused the Dowager Duchess greatly. “Don’t you know no shame? Aren’t you embarrassed to say this as a girl?”

Lu Liangwei blinked nonchalantly and replied with confidence, “Why should I be embarrassed? I can’t treat the event of a lifetime so carelessly, can I? If I don’t dare to voice my thoughts just because I feel embarrassed, then wouldn’t I be the one suffering in the end?”

“That smart mouth of yours! Fine, I can’t argue with you. You can go back first. Let me discuss with your father again, and I’ll tell you when we have a plan.” The Dowager Duchess waved her hand a little helplessly.

Lu Liangwei had nothing else to do but get up and say, “Alright. I’ll leave my marriage plans in your hands, Grandmother.” She curtsied to the Dowager Duchess. “But you can’t simply give me some low-quality guy, okay?”

The Dowager Duchess was annoyed and amused at the same time. “Alright, alright, get out of here quickly. I can’t concentrate with you around.”

Lu Liangwei stuck her tongue out playfully. “Looks like Grandmother’s annoyed with me. Well then, I won’t come over the next few days to give Grandmother some peace and quiet.”

With that, she ran off like a gust of wind.

The Dowager Duchess complained to Aunt Lan, “That girl is getting more and more brazen.” Despite her words, she could not hide the smile on her face.

Aunt Lan smiled and said candidly, “I, for one, think that Second Miss is a mood setter. She makes people feel happy and comfortable every time she comes over.” Most importantly, the Dowager Duchess would always be in a good mood every time Second Miss visited.

The Dowager Duchess nodded. “That’s true.” She suddenly thought of something and looked a little worried. “But it’s not so easy to select an adopted son-in-law. No well-off family will want to offer their son for this. Poor families might be willing to do it, but it’d be unfair to Weiwei to let her marry such a family.”

Aunt Lan agreed. “Indeed.”

Seeing the Dowager Duchess’s distressed expression, Aunt Lan racked her brains to think of a solution.

Suddenly, an idea struck her, and she said excitedly, “Madam, I’ve thought of an idea. I wonder if it’s feasible.”

At that, the Dowager Duchess said hurriedly, “Let’s hear it”

“I am thinking that it would be too laborious if we go and find a suitable family ourselves. Instead, we could let those who’re interested come forward on their own.”

“What do you mean?” The Dowager Duchess was puzzled.

“We could set up an arena to select a groom,” Aunt Lan said enthusiastically. “Moreover, if we do that, we don’t have to limit the competitors to families in the imperial capital or decent families. We could accept heroes from the martial world too.”

The Dowager Duchess came to a realization. “That’s right, why didn’t I think of it? This way, we can broaden our range of choices and include martial families and heroes. There must be someone willing to become an adopted son-in-law. There are also plenty of ways for us to consider their character.”
