Family Rise by Daily Intelligence

Chapter 691 - 289: Taking a Wife, Laying Plans, and Three Major Privileges

"Has Brother Fan established his foundation?!"

She endured patiently.

Waiting for this very day.

Seeing Jade Lotus nod affirmatively.

She was so happy she grabbed Jade Lotus’s hand, exclaiming repeatedly:

"Good, good, good, now that Brother Fan has successfully established his foundation, this old woman can finally close her eyes in peace."

She stomped her feet, knowing her daughter and son now had someone they could rely on. Brother Fan had always been steady and seasoned from a young age, unlike her daughter, who could never seem to learn how to navigate human relations no matter how she was taught.

Brother Fan’s foundation establishment.

Means that the main line of the clan leader now has a backbone.

Jade Lotus was also joyous, and the mother and daughter laughed for a while. Jade Lotus then talked about Fu Changsheng asking her to help Brother Qiang find a marriage partner and concluded by saying:

"The sisters from the Hongg family were there too, and when they heard about it, they offered to help. I’ve already asked them to look for candidates back in their clan, but when they come over, I’ll still need you to take a look, Mother."

However.

The more Jade Lotus spoke, the less delighted her mother’s expression became.

Hurriedly, she said:

"Mother, is there something amiss?"

This was the first task given to her by the Patriarch, and she couldn’t afford to make any mistakes.

Fairy Lady Cai pointed to the wide open door.

Jade Lotus obediently closed the door and activated the protective array.

Only then did Fairy Lady Cai speak slowly:

"The main line of the clan leader, after decades of development, now has Brother Fan, Brother Rong, Yaoyao, as well as Brother Fuu and Brother Qiang, who were born later. Plus your father’s two godsons, Yongyi and Yongrui, that’s seven people in total."

"In addition to that"

"Over at the Yu Family, there are An’an and Ningning, and the twins born later should be at the age where their spiritual roots are tested."

"Altogether, that’s eleven offspring."

"As time goes by, when each of you gets married and has children, the main line of the clan leader will be divided into numerous branches, possibly even dozens."

"With more people"

"The closeness between brothers’ households will vary."

"In the future, when we old folks kick the bucket, the ones you can rely on are these brothers and sisters. Do you understand?"

Jade Lotus listened, utterly confused.

She didn’t know what her mother was implying:

"Mother, what does this have to do with Brother Qiang’s marriage?"

Fairy Lady Cai sighed internally, seeing that even after being so direct, her daughter still didn’t get it.

Pointing at the teapot on the tea table.

She had Jade Lotus brew a pot of Illusory Jade Honey Tea and then continued:

"Think about it"

"With Brother Fan’s qualifications, the clan didn’t expect him to establish a foundation, yet under the Patriarch’s operation, look, didn’t your husband establish his foundation smoothly?"

"The Patriarch is very loyal and righteous"

"If he treats others like this, how much more his own offspring. With the Patriarch’s nature, he will certainly find ways to put Brother Qiang on the path of cultivation. No matter which family’s girl marries in now, she would be someone who stood by Brother Qiang through hardships, and when Brother Qiang rises, would he treat her poorly?"

Jade Lotus blinked.

The more she listened, the more bewildered she became.

She straightforwardly said:

"Mother, you know I’m dull and don’t understand such intricate things. Whatever you want to say, just say it directly, your daughter will definitely do as you instruct."

Truly.....

Fairy Lady Cai swallowed her words and didn’t beat around the bush anymore:

"Brother Qiang’s marriage should be settled with someone from the Gan Family. No matter which girl from the Gan Family comes over, you’d be sisters-in-law through marriage, maintaining good relations between the two branches. This would certainly make you closer than the other several branches."

"Moreover"

"As in-laws of an Eighth-Grade Noble Family, the Gan family is bound to experience rapid development in the future. Although your Uncle Gan has passed away, with your brother there, the Gan family is your maternal backing."

The daughter-in-law brought back by Fu Changsheng.

The Hongg sisters have the Ninth-Grade Hongg family behind them, and Fu Yongyi’s wife Hee Qingru also has the Ninth-Grade Hongg family as her backing. Even Fu Yongrui married Liuu Yunfeng, backed by the Ninth-Grade Liuu family, and Liuu Yunfeng comes from the same clan as the Lady of the House.

In terms of origin.

Jade Lotus had the lowest status.

She had no support to speak of.

In future interactions with her sisters-in-law, though she might be the eldest sister-in-law, she would find it difficult to assert herself in front of her younger sisters-in-law.

But if she could help the Gan family rise in stature.

Then her status could be on par with the other sisters-in-law.

"Mother, you’re overthinking."

Jade Lotus felt she had nothing to ask of the Gan family. Despite her mother’s long speech, in the end, she was just worried about her brother. However, she naturally didn’t say these thoughts. After all, choosing a girl is still choosing.

Before Fairy Lady Cai could get angry, she hurriedly said:

"In that case, I’ll do as you say, Mother. I’ll have the Gan family select a few girls, and then Brother Qiang can choose one."

Jade Lotus spoke carelessly.

Fairy Lady Cai realized her painstaking efforts were in vain, waved her hand and said, "Forget it, forget it, I’ll go to the Gan family myself."

Fairy Lady Cai had been fiery and decisive when she was young, and even in old age, she acted vigorously. On the same day, she had Jade Lotus personally escort her down the mountain.

The Gan family, originally a Spirit Plant Family.

When the Fu family first arrived in their fief, they had already settled there. Fifty years have passed since then, and with Gan Shenglin, a Tier Two Spirit Plant Master, assisting them and emulating the Fu family’s encouragement to have many children, the clan now boasts several hundred people with spiritual roots. The spirit vein assigned to them was recently upgraded to Tier Two Low-Grade.

A few more foundation establishments.

And the Gan family could ascend to become a Ninth-Grade family.

Making it the third Ninth-Grade Noble Family under the Fu family.

Now the head of the Gan family was naturally Fairy Lady Cai’s son.

The Gan Clan Leader had received a communication from his elderly mother in advance, pondered it carefully, and his eyes lit up, feeling that this was a major opportunity for the Gan family.
