The family tradition of the Lu family is well-known: Commandant Lu is upright and shrewd, Minister Lu never abuses power or takes bribes, and Lu Yuanpeng is a leader among the younger generation. The Wei family is indeed reaching high by this marriage; if Commandant Lu holds the Wei family in high regard, she would be willing to marry.
Wei Bugong and his wife observed how their daughter analyzed the situation logically. They also knew that their daughter usually had her own firm opinions, but Wei Bugong still said to her, "Child, I know you're doing this for our family, for your younger siblings. I feel... I was suddenly promoted by His Majesty and have no roots in the court. I think if you marry into the Lu family's first grandson, it would be beneficial for your siblings' futures and marriage. But what about you? His Majesty allows women to study and take the imperial exams. You clearly want to take the exams. Now, marriage is not the only path for women!"
