Traveling to Daliang Kingdom starts from falling into the water

Chapter 737 In the dark
Unlike Gu Erzhu who was out in Qinghe Village that day, Liu got to see the excitement because the Gu family's old house was at the entrance to the village on the east side of the river.

It was a coincidence that day too.

My mother-in-law, who is rarely seen at the entrance of the village on the east side of the river on weekdays, seemed to be passing by the town after returning from the market with someone, and a coachman happened to ask for directions.

The driver was also very interesting.

The carriage stopped and chose to go the other way without asking the group of old ladies coming from behind. Instead, it shouted at the old ladies washing things on the river bank at the top of its voice.

Is this Qinghe Village?
Ask him who he is looking for?

Don’t say it again.

It was so lively that she could hear a carriage entering the village from the yard. When she went out, she just happened to see San Ya getting off the carriage and about to salute everyone.

At that time, like everyone else, she didn't know that this was the third daughter of Zhou Changshun who was secretly sold, and she mistakenly thought that she was a rich girl visiting relatives.

Moreover, she was wondering at that time whether this girl had fallen into trouble and had come to seek refuge with distant relatives without even a proper servant to serve her.

It was not until the girl avoided her parents' names and gave her brother's full and nickname, and Li was pushed out and the mother and daughter met, that she realized she was actually the third girl of the Zhou family.

It has to be said that some fate is predestined. When the father of the child mentioned this girl, she thought he was daydreaming.

After all, the girl is working as a maid in Gao's mansion far away in the city. Even if she has good embroidery skills, who knows when she can save enough money to redeem herself and return to the village.

Besides, she always hears the child's father bragging about how good other people's children are. If the child is really as outstanding as the child's father said, would it be her daughter Liu Lang's turn to marry the child?
Her son would naturally be the best choice, but who made her have to deal with grandparents with poor eyesight and the whole family supporting a brother from a different family to seek fame and fortune.

When she got closer and witnessed the words and actions of the third daughter of the Zhou family, it was even worse. It was just that this person was not only the father of the child, but she, too, also dreamed of having such a daughter-in-law.

So, when another carriage arrived and her mother-in-law and her daughter were led back to Hexi by everyone, she really came to join in the fun.

When they arrived at Zhou's house in Hexi, San Ya's father had already heard the news and ran out. Perhaps he had fallen down, and he looked so embarrassed. He even hugged his daughter and cried and laughed in public.

When she returned to her room that night, she told the child's father that this marriage was difficult to arrange, and that the girl's father loved her more than the child's father thought, but the child's father still didn't believe it.

What did he say?

Oh, I remembered it.

——I'm just kidding. Which father wouldn't feel sorry for a good daughter who can support the family? But feeling sorry for her is one thing, and finding in-laws is another.

Just assume that he really loves this daughter. The more he loves her, the more reluctant he is to marry her off far away. What could be better than marrying her off as close to home as possible?

Naturally, the girl would still live in the same village after she got married. In the entire Qinghe Village, except for a few families with other surnames, which family would be more suitable to marry his girl?

Of course it’s my Liulang. He’s good-looking, tall, good at fighting, and literate. You can say he’s both a civil and a martial artist. Whoever dares to snatch him away, I’ll kill him!
Afterwards, as she had guessed, it was not just her and her husband who had good taste. The matchmaker from the Zhou family who was looking for a marriage proposal came to the Zhou family’s door every now and then.

The in-laws finally let out some words, saying that the man cannot be the eldest son, must be literate, write and do math, his parents must be open-minded, and there must be an amount of betrothal gifts, etc.

Her Liu Lang passed all the tests, including the betrothal gifts. Even if they were doubled, she and her husband would have more than enough to support themselves, but they hadn't yet separated. Just when she didn't stop the child's father, he went to find his in-laws privately but was rejected. Then he went to find the child's eldest aunt to see if he could take the opportunity to separate the family first.
It was destined that her Liu Lang's marriage would come.

It was just a coincidence, as luck would have it, that it was her Liu Lang who saved San Ya. Although the child's father had a push, who was her Liu Lang?
He was pushed down by his father and had to save someone's life. If he wanted to be stubborn and not marry the girl afterwards, who could stop him? How could anyone rush to marry her?

Recalling these past events, Liu gave her husband Gu Erzhu an admiring look, "Looking for a wife, looking for a daughter-in-law, you are the best.

I just wonder if the son-in-law will be so discerning. Our Baoya is one year older now, and there are many families here who have asked people to pass on the message to me——"

"Stop!" Gu Erzhu hurriedly called for a halt, "My daughter is so young, marriage is at least five or six years away, let's talk about it then.

It's just right to look for a good match in private for two or three years before my daughter turns eighteen. By then, the boy I find will be two years older and will be almost certain.

It's too early. Who knows what might go wrong along the way. I can't let a good girl like me have her reputation ruined. It would be safer to think about marriage when she is around 15 years old.

Anyway, I don't want our Baoya to marry a rich man. I want her to marry someone with a decent family background who doesn't lack food and clothing. With our daughter's intelligence, few people can let her suffer any grievances.

Besides, she has the support of her brother and sister-in-law. As long as she doesn't do anything stupid in the future and doesn't live too comfortably, you can see from Master Qi San that if you want good things for your daughter, it's better to choose one when she's older.

Look at his daughter, it’s not too late to get engaged now. The child understands everything she should understand. If she waits another two or three years to get married, it will be a good time for young people to be deeply in love.

It's just right, and it can also avoid getting engaged too early. The son-in-law said, "A child who is young may not be good when he grows up." A child like Dajiang is already determined at this age, which can avoid a lot of trouble. "

Liu finally understood that the child's father was not only reluctant to marry his daughter to anyone, but also had no intention of marrying into anyone's family because the child was still young and there were too many concerns about possible changes.

well.

No matter how the world changes, the child's father is still the same man who keeps his word. This trip to the capital was not in vain.

Gu Erzhu didn't know that in the blink of an eye, his wife had tested him intentionally or unintentionally.

Seeing that it was already quite some time and the old girl still hadn't come back, he thought that she must be living in the Qingyue Courtyard on the east side with Lian Jie'er from Doctor Song's family.

He suggested going to bed early, as lying down would not be as comfortable as sitting down, and even if they were to whisper, chatting quietly under the quilt would not be more appropriate than sitting here and whispering.

Although this large courtyard is indeed nice, after all, it was once the residence of a duke, but in terms of warmth, it is still far inferior to his Sanya Yuyuan.

At this moment, if they were in the main courtyard where he and his wife lived in Yuyuan, even if they didn't go into the warm room, it would be very hot to walk around in the outer room wearing only a coat.

It's not like here, in the inner room, with only a screen separating me from the kang bed. If I sit on the couch for a long time, even with the brazier next to me, I feel a little chilly.

"I want to go home."

Liu had just laid down when she heard Gu Erzhu suddenly say this, pouting in a childish manner, which made her very happy.

"It will be soon. One day tomorrow, one day the day after tomorrow, and one day after tomorrow. Go to Qi's mansion to make the reservation. Stay one or two more days. If you don't tell them you want to go home, your in-laws will be anxious to go back."
