"Mother, what are you talking about? It's not that I look down on all of them, but rather that they all look down on me."
Qin Shuan'er couldn't help but retort.
"Who looks down on you? My Shuang'er is so good, with a fine character and appearance, how could anyone look down on her?" Qin Yueshi's voice suddenly rose eight octaves.
"Mother, I'm well aware of my own standing..."
Qin Shuan'er spoke somberly then hung her head, quietly twisting a piece of her clothing, "Those people are either of great erudition and scholarship or possess great wealth, or their authority reaches the sky. And me?"
"Don't you still have His Majesty and the Empress to support you!"
Qin Yueshi declared loudly, with her head held high and chest puffed out.
With the Great Zhou Dynasty's two most powerful figures backing Shuang'er, why worry that her daughter couldn't marry into a prestigious family?
