Mrs. Yao straightened her back under her husband's incredulous gaze, "Why can't I consider it? Isn't Governor Xue's daughter going to get married?"
"Our son is handsome, diligent in studying, and has outstanding character; he's a rare good young man. If I were Governor Xue, I'd gladly marry my daughter to such a son-in-law."
County Magistrate Chen twitched his lips, "He's your son, naturally he seems excellent to you. If Haoran had passed the scholar exam last autumn and was going to the Capital City this year for the Advanced Scholar exam, then we could shamelessly visit the Xue Mansion to test the waters. But for now, just forget it! Don't disgrace yourself!"
Mrs. Yao was displeased, "Why would this be disgracing ourselves?"
Even Chen Haoran couldn't listen anymore, "A man should marry beneath him, and a woman should marry above her; wasn't this also said by mother? Just considering family status, it's not quite a match."
