"Look at me, so caught up in chatting that I almost forgot the real matter at hand!" Third Madam Shi smacked her forehead with a laugh: "Here's the thing, I am considering purchasing some good farmland and one or two manors; do you know of any ways, Miss Wan?"
Sang Wan was taken aback, "Auntie, you're planning to—"
Third Madam Shi heaved a light sigh and said, "There's no point hiding it. My daughter Yuzhen has been betrothed to Master's colleague, and is set to marry off to Chengdu come next midyear. As for Yulin, after discussing with your uncle, we thought it best to find her a marriage in Qingzhou within the next year or two. After all, my husband and I will eventually need to return to our roots, and it's unbearable not having our daughters by our side! Hence, I'm now thinking of gradually acquiring some land as a dowry for Yulin. I'm aware that the public family estate has its share, but this is a token of love from us parents; it's different from the public assets!"
