Then Sun Rong looked at Lin Ruoxuan again and said gently, "Xuan'er, the Gu family just sent someone to tell me that they want me and your father to meet at Rulou tomorrow to discuss your marriage with Gu Nanyuan."

Lin Ruoxuan was shocked when she heard this.

Although she had known that this day would come, her heart was still stirred when she actually heard her mother say it.

Seeing her daughter remain silent, Lotus Sun couldn't help but have tears in her eyes.

She sighed softly: "Xuan'er, mother knows that this marriage is the agreement between the Gu family and the Lin family for many years, and it is also a promise between your father and the Gu family. Mother has no objection and has always supported this matter, but... you are my daughter after all, and mother really can't bear to see you leave home so soon."

Seeing her mother being so sentimental, Lin Ruoxue couldn't help but gently hold Sun Rong's hand and said softly, "Mother, don't be sad. Xuan'er hasn't married yet, why are you so sad?"

Sun Rong gently stroked Lin Ruoxuan's cheek and continued, "Mother is not sad, she just feels that time has passed too quickly. You are still little girls by my side, how come it's time to get married? Mother just hopes that you can stay with me for a few more years before considering these things."

Lin Ruoxuan smiled slightly and said softly, "Mother, you don't have to worry so much. We are all in the capital. Even if I get married in the future, I can come back to visit you often."

At this time, Cong's mother hurried in with a look of nervousness on her face.

After she bowed, she said carefully, "Madam, when the Song family left just now, the third lady quietly followed them and seemed to say something to them, but the person who followed was too far away and could not hear the specific content clearly."

When Sun Rong heard this, her face darkened instantly, and a hint of displeasure flashed in her eyes.

Lin Ruoxuan also noticed the change in her mother's mood, and secretly sighed in her heart that her mother was indeed more decisive now than before.

At the very least, she no longer simply endures and accommodates, but knows to be wary of Lin Ruoxi.

Lotus Sun was silent for a moment, took a deep breath, and then said coldly, "Miss Third has indeed been a little dishonest recently. It seems that she is hiding something from me."

"Especially since she has been getting close to the playboy from the Shangshu Zhang family recently. If she does something inappropriate, it will not only bring discredit to our Lin family, but will also implicate other girls in the family and damage their reputations."

When Lin Ruoxuan heard this, she immediately understood her mother's concerns.

If Lin Ruoxi's behavior were to spread, it would inevitably affect the reputation of the entire Lin family.

She nodded slightly and agreed, "Mother is right. If Third Sister continues like this, not only will the reputations of us sisters be affected, but even the sisters back home might be implicated."

Sun Rong frowned, and said firmly, "If Xi'er doesn't know what's good for her again, I won't let her off easily."

Lin Ruoxuan and Lin Ruoxue were full of admiration for Sun Rong in their hearts.

Lin Ruoxuan smiled slightly and said softly: "Mother, you have really changed a lot. You used to be so gentle and tolerant, but now you can handle these trivial matters so decisively."

Lotus Sun looked at her two sensible daughters and felt a warm feeling in her heart.

She gently stroked their hands and said in a soft tone, "My children, you must know that nothing in the world is more important than you. For your happiness, your mother is willing to do anything. As long as you are safe and happy, your mother will be satisfied."

At the same time, at the Song family, the atmosphere was not so harmonious.

Song Zhennan was in the study when Old Madam Song and Madam Song walked in one after another, looking unhappy.

Old Madam Song had a cold face. As soon as she sat down, she started to speak: "Zhennan, do you know how the Lin family treated our Song family today? They didn't take us seriously at all, and even ordered that Seventh Miss to speak rudely to us."

Mrs. Song also echoed, her tone full of blame, "Yes, the seventh girl of the Lin family has no education at all, and she doesn't know how to respect her elders at all. You still miss her, but she is not worthy of being the daughter-in-law of our Song family."

Song Zhennan frowned slightly, obviously very dissatisfied with what his mother and grandmother said.

He looked at them calmly: "Grandmother, mother, I don't agree with what you said. The Lin family has their own rules, and Miss Xuan has always been dignified and proper. I have never seen her behave in a disrespectful manner. As for what happened today, I wonder if there is some misunderstanding?"

Old Madam Song said dissatisfiedly: "Zhennan, are you really fascinated by that girl from the Lin family? She doesn't even have the slightest manners in front of her elders, and you're still defending her?"

Song Zhennan retorted without hesitation: "Grandma, you said she doesn't respect her elders, but the Miss Xuan I met is just the opposite. She has never been rude to anyone."

"As for the Lin family's attitude towards us, perhaps our behavior caused their dissatisfaction. Besides, you think she is not worthy of me, but have you ever thought that maybe she doesn't like me at all? We in the Song family are self-indulgent and think that everyone can like the son of the Song family. In fact, it may not be the case at all."

Old Madam Song was speechless for a moment, and her expression became even uglier.

Mrs. Song was so angry at Song Zhennan's words that her face turned blue and she no longer wanted to talk to him.

She had already decided that since her son was so stubborn, she had to find him a more suitable marriage.

So, she said coldly: "Since you are so stubborn, I will no longer care about you. There will be a polo match at the Earl of Kangqin's mansion tomorrow. I will take you to meet other girls of the right age. Maybe by then, you will understand that the Seventh Miss of the Lin Family is not worth your trouble at all."

Although Song Zhennan was unwilling to be arranged by his mother, he had no choice but to obey.

The next day, the polo match at Earl Kangqin's Palace was held as scheduled.

This polo match caused quite a stir in Beijing, and almost all the prominent families sent people to participate.

Families with unmarried children of marriageable age are particularly active in participating in the event, hoping to take this opportunity to find a good marriage for their children.

The garden of Earl Kangqin's palace was filled with people under the luxurious tent.

The surroundings were exquisitely decorated, servants were busy shuttling around, laughter was heard constantly in the place, and it seemed very lively.

Sun Rong brought Lin Ruoxuan, Lin Ruoxue, Lin Ruoqiao and Lin Ruoxi to the polo club.

As soon as they sat down, they attracted a lot of people's attention.

The Lin family has a high reputation in Beijing, especially Lin Ruoxuan and Lin Ruoxue, who have long been betrothed to the Qi and Gu families.

Everyone knows that once these two marriages are finalized, the interests of the Lin family, the Qi family, and the Gu family will be tied together, and the future will be promising.
