Chapter 404 Qiduo's Marriage

After Zheng Wanru finished speaking with Mrs. Xu, she left Qiduo's house.

Then Mrs. Xu called Qiduo into the room to speak.

"Duo, come and sit down, my mother has something to tell you." Xu was smiling and in a good mood.

"What's the matter?" Qiduo sat down next to Mrs. Xu.

She guessed in her heart that what the old lady was going to say must have something to do with her aunt's visit.

Mrs. Xu didn't answer her immediately, but looked at her with a smile for a while, and then said, "Duo, mother asks you, what do you think of Shen Nan?"

Qiduo seemed to realize something, her forehead turned black.

My heart was inexplicably a little confused.

But she had to answer her mother's question, and she couldn't speak ironically out of conscience.

She said, "Mother, Brother Nan is of course excellent in terms of character, appearance, and knowledge. Otherwise, people will not understand Yuan. But, mother, why are you asking this carefully?"
Xu was extremely satisfied with her daughter's answer.

Mrs. Xu patted Qiduo's hand lightly, then let out a sigh of relief, and said, "Duo, mother won't hide it from you, just now your Aunt Shen came over and told me something, let me ask your opinion. "

"Mother, if you have anything to say, just speak up." Qiduo nodded.

"The Shen family has a very good impression of you, and they also treat you very well, which is different from ordinary people. I believe you know this. Especially your Aunt Shen, who treats you more than his own daughter, and Brother Nan treats you better. You always belonged too.

Duo, your Aunt Shen wants you to finalize your marriage with Brother Nan before going to the capital, what do you think? "Xu said softly.

She has always been relatively open-minded about the marriages of her daughters, and she will not arrange them forcibly.

First of all, she will check it herself, and if she thinks the other party is good, she will ask her daughter for her opinion.Even if she thinks it's good, but her daughter doesn't like it, she will never force it, her daughter's happiness is the most important thing.

Although Qiduo guessed what the old lady was going to say, she still couldn't help being shocked when she really heard her say these words.

She is only 12 years old this year, and she hadn't even entered junior high school at this age in her previous life, but here, she is already getting engaged, which is really unacceptable to her.

What's important is that she really hasn't considered the destination of her relationship yet.

Maybe it's because she thinks she is young, and she has never thought about this issue seriously.

For Shen Nan, from the bottom of her heart, she neither hated nor disliked her, and was very relaxed with him, without any need to hide or put on airs.

Because from childhood to adulthood, she has shown her truest self in front of him.

He can see clearly her shortcomings and her advantages.

Similarly, she can see clearly his strengths and weaknesses.

She has always understood his intentions for her, but she just pretended to be confused.
She also really likes the atmosphere of the Shen family, which suits her personality better.

But Qiduo also has her own concerns.

My aunt is kind to me, but Shen Nan is so good, now that he has won the prize, no matter whether he wins the examination or not, he can already be elected as an official.And her current identity is just a village girl, no matter how good or big the business is, the identity of a village girl can never be changed.

In this era where status is very important, Shen Nan's status as a village girl is very likely to make Shen Nan the laughing stock of others in the future.

She couldn't make Shen Nan a laughing stock, and she couldn't let herself fall into a passive situation.

It is better for people to be content with the status quo, and it is better not to climb high branches that do not belong to them!

Qiduo's thoughts changed sharply, and she blushed to answer her mother, "Mother, I'm still young, and my second sister is not engaged yet, so it's not suitable for me to get engaged now. Besides, mother, do you think my identities and Shen Nan's are compatible? "

"Duo, age is not a problem. There are many people who are younger than you and have engaged in marriage early. As for the issue of status and family status, I just told Aunt Shen, but she scolded me in turn, saying Why am I so pedantic. They said that the daughter-in-law of the Shen family chooses talents instead of families.

Duo, I think you, Aunt Shen and Brother Nan, are both sincere. They thought about how long it would take to go to the capital to come back, and they specifically wanted to make a marriage appointment, and they were worried that we would promise you to someone else. " Xu replied like this.

Seeing her mother's appearance, Qiduo knew that she was willing.

There was indeed no reason for refusing this marriage.

But she didn't want to set constraints on herself so early, and she didn't want to restrain Shen Nan's wings, hoping that he could fly higher and farther.

Qiduo shook her head, "Mother, I don't want to get engaged so early."

"But what about Aunt Shen?" Xu was a little disappointed.

"Mother, don't worry, I'll talk to Auntie myself." Qiduo said.

"It's not good for you, a little girl, to talk about this kind of thing. It's better for my mother to talk about it." Xu said hastily.

"It's okay mother, aunt is not a pedantic person, it's better for me to say this in person, otherwise it will make aunt misunderstand." Qi Duo comforted.

Xu thought about it seriously, and nodded in agreement.

In terms of eloquence, she thinks she is not as good as her daughter, and believes that her daughter can handle this matter well.

But for her daughter's objection, she was still very disappointed, who knows if she will find a good son-in-law like Shen Nan in the future.

Suddenly she thought of Wen Xiuyi and was startled.

Could it be that the girl has moved his mind, that's why he rejected the Shen family's marriage?

Thinking of this, Xu frowned.

She didn't think Wen Xiuyi was bad, but compared to Shen Nan, she still thought that Shen Nan and Qiduo were the most suitable, they both knew each other well, and she felt at ease in marrying her daughter to the Shen family.

Mrs. Xu made up her mind that if Qiduo really fell in love with Wen Xiuyi in the future, she must remind her carefully from the side, so that her daughter could choose carefully.

Qiduo didn't dare to delay, and went to Shen's house the next day with a basket of fresh vegetables and fresh eggs.

Seeing Qiduo coming, Zheng Wanru and Shen Yuren both laughed heartily.

The three Shen Nan brothers were not at home. According to Zheng Wanru, they went to the county to reunite with their classmates.

"Auntie, I want to talk to you about something." After chatting for a while, Qiduo looked at Zheng Wanru and said softly.

Shen Huairen understood, immediately found an excuse, got up and left the main room.

Zheng Wanru's heart sank, Qiduo came here specially to talk to her, it must have something to do with her marriage.

Could it be that she doesn't like Nan'er?

Or did she have other ideas?
Bah bah, probably not!

Zheng Wanru collected her thoughts, looked at Qiduo, and asked softly, "Qiduo, what are you talking to me about?"

Qiduo pursed her pink lips lightly, her cheeks flushed slightly, and she said, "Auntie, I want to tell you about the marriage."

Even though she was thick-skinned, she still couldn't help but feel her cheeks burning with shame.

Zheng Wanru nodded and asked Qiduo to speak.

Qiduo plucked up her courage and said, "Auntie, I really appreciate your great love for me, it's just...just that I think brother Nan and I are too young, and it's not the best time to get engaged, so..."

"Qiduo, why isn't this the best time?" Zheng Wanru didn't get angry, but asked instead.

"Auntie, brother Nan will definitely have a bright future, and there will be many variables in the process of growing up. I don't want to make a marriage with brother Nan so early and tie his hands and feet." Qi Duo said.

"Duo, are you worried that Nan'er will change his mind in the future? Don't worry, Nan'er is sincere to you and will never change his mind. If he really dares to have such stupid thoughts, I will be the first to spare him." Zheng Wanru Hurry to comfort Qiduo, she really wants Qiduo to be her daughter-in-law.

Qiduo smiled, held Zheng Wanru's hands, looked at her gentle and beautiful face, and said softly, "Auntie, I know how kind brother Nan is to me. If we two are really destined, whether it is It won't matter if you get engaged now or after a few years.

Auntie, brother Nan and I are still young, can you give us three years, if three years later, brother Nan still treats me as he does now, and my love for brother Nan remains the same, then you will be there for us again Let's get married, okay? "

Whether Shen Nan will change her mind in the future, she doesn't know, and she can't be sure.

If he meets the girl he likes in the future, but he has already made a marriage with himself, then not only he will be embarrassed, but also his aunt will be embarrassed.

If she divorced herself, her aunt would definitely think that she was sorry for herself, and she couldn't say it.

But if she doesn't withdraw from the marriage, Shen Nan's heart already has something to belong to, even if she marries him, she will not be happy in the future.

Time can change many things, and it can also prove many things.

And that includes feelings!
Maybe three years later, the childhood sweetheart between the two fades away, and goodbye is just an ordinary friend.

Maybe see you again in three years. Not only is the relationship between the two still intact, but they also feel that the other party is the other half that they want to pursue in their lives.

Although Qiduo didn't speak clearly, Zheng Wanru already understood what she meant.

After thinking about it carefully, I think it makes sense.

But I was too anxious and didn't think too far.

It's the best way to make a three-year agreement without getting married, so that if something happens in the future, it won't hurt each other!
"Duo, you child thinks more clearly than auntie, so auntie will listen to you. It's just Nan'er, you can explain to him yourself, okay?" Zheng Wanru hugged Qiduo into her arms, and said softly.

"Okay." Qiduo nodded.

To Zheng Wanru, Qiduo was really grateful, she came to reject the marriage, she didn't get angry, she treated the matter very rationally, and her attitude was as intimacy as before.

"What, Qi Duo didn't agree to the engagement? How is this possible? Did you hear wrong?" Shen Huairen was very surprised when he heard about the refusal, he never thought that Qi Duo would not agree to the engagement.

It's not that he is arrogant, he thinks that in Tonglin County, it is impossible to find a man who is better than his own son.

Such an excellent son was rejected.

"I heard that right. In fact, it's not that Qi Duo doesn't like Nan'er, it's just that she has her own ideas." Zheng Wanru told her husband what Qi Duo meant.

"Oh, Qiyatou is really smart." Shen Huairen pondered carefully, and it made sense, and the misunderstanding of Qiduo in his heart disappeared immediately, but he just lamented that Qiduo's intelligence seemed to leave a way for others, but in fact it also used her own. If you retreat, you will not let yourself fall into an embarrassing situation.
"Otherwise, how could we like her so much? I only hope that after three years, the fate between her and Nan'er will still exist, and then they will achieve a positive result and achieve a happy marriage." Zheng Wanru said.

Shen Huairen nodded lightly, he also hoped so.
After dinner, Shen Nan really came to look for Qiduo.

Seeing his stinky face, Qiduo knew that her aunt had told him about it.

Qiduo and Shen Nan came to the hillside to watch the fireworks during the Chinese New Year.
