Gu Zhang was silent for a long moment. "You should privately ask Lan Zhi what she thinks. If they're both willing, then let's go ahead with it."
Mrs. Chen's brow furrowed even more. "But that's not my biggest worry. I'm afraid that if Er Lang marries Lan Zhi, he won't be able to hold on to such a beautiful wife!"
"Lan Zhi is the Miss of the Marquis Mansion. Even if she marries Er Lang out of desperation, will she be content?"
"A marriage between unequal families is never a good match! If Lan Zhi ever has a change of heart, I don't think Er Lang would be able to go on living!"
Gu Zhang waved his hand dismissively. "You're worrying for nothing!"
"Just go and sound Lan Zhi out. If she's willing, the family will pick a date and hold the wedding for them."
"How they live their lives afterward, whether Er Lang can hold on to his wife—that's Er Lang's business. He's the one who wants this, so he has to bear the consequences. What's the use of you worrying yourself sick over it!"
