Guizhi was pleased to hear Juhua praise her. She replied politely, "Who doesn't have a bit of a temper! If this marriage goes through, she'll ultimately be living with Laicai. Your second aunt loves her son, doesn't she? Would she really make things difficult for her daughter-in-law? My cousin is sharp and capable, much more competent than me. She has a real way with words; most people can't out-talk her."
Juhua's eyes lit up when she heard this. She thought, "Wouldn't she be the perfect person to marry into the family to keep my second aunt in check?"
However, she didn't dare say this out loud. She merely nodded with a beaming smile.
He chimed in, "Isn't that perfect? Laicai is also a clever one. If they get together, they'll definitely build a good life."
