Zhulan was indeed familiar with Wang De's daughter, the thirteen-year-old girl who was truly pretty, and seemed like a nice person when Zhulan met her a few times, but sadly the Wang surname was not acceptable, especially since they were closely related to Wang Ru. Her family did not wish to be associated with the Wangs in any way, "Auntie, I understand your meaning, but my son Chang Lian is going to take part in the imperial examination for young scholars next year. We hadn't planned on arranging his marriage so early; both his father and I think he is still young, and it wouldn't be too late to wait another year or two."
