After Song Qingye and Chu Yu went back, Liu Yuniang happily told them that they were scheduled to go to Yunxi Village tomorrow.

There have been a lot of things going on recently, and Song Qingye even forgot about Chu Qiu's kiss.

"Mother, have you talked to Qiuqiu?"

"Hey, look at me, I forgot, I'll go and tell him right away."

Liu Yuniang went to the house to find Chu Qiu, who was cleaning her house.

"Qiuqiu, come here, mother has something to say to you."

Chu Qiu put down the handkerchief in his hand and walked up to Liu Yunniang, "Mother, what's the matter?"

Liu Yunniang pulled him to the side of the bed and sat down, "Qiuqiu, what do you think about your future husband?"

Chu Qiu was suddenly confused, why did his mother suddenly tell him about this, "No... I don't have any ideas."

He really didn't have any ideas, or he didn't have a clear idea about this matter. Compared with these things, he wanted Song Qingye to cook him more delicious food, which was more practical.

Liu Yunniang looked at him reproachfully, "You are already thirteen, it's time to think about it."

"oh oh."

Chu Qiu blankly responded to his mother, what is there to say, he is still young.

"It's like this. A few days ago, Zheng Xiucai's family from the next-door village asked a matchmaker to make a marriage proposal. They agreed to meet tomorrow. Mother just wanted to ask you what you mean."

Chu Qiu's eyes widened suddenly, what... what?

Seeing that he couldn't recover for a long time, Liu Yuniang knew that he must have been shocked.

"Mother has inquired carefully. There is only one mother and younger brother in Zheng Xiucai's family. He will also go into official career in the future. His knowledge is well-known far and wide."

After Chu Qiu managed to regain his composure, he heard his mother telling him about Zheng Xiucai's situation.

"Qiuqiu, you don't have to be afraid, and you won't be married off so soon. You'll have to wait another two years after it's settled."

Chu Qiu didn't say a word, let his mother do the talking.

Chu Qiu has always been in a very ignorant state. He has no idea about Zheng Xiucai, he just thinks that Zheng Xiucai is a scholar, and he doesn't know a single word. Can this be said together?Maybe they will look down on him, isn't it said that scholars are very noble.

There are too few people like Song Qingye who treat everyone equally even though they can read and write.

After dinner in the evening, after feeding the chickens, Chu Qiu sat in the yard holding the basin in a daze.

Seeing this, Song Qingye walked over and sat beside him.

"Second brother?"

"Are you in a daze?" Song Qingye asked.

Chu Qiu said "Yes", Song Qingye also saw that Chu Qiu had something on his mind, most of it was because of his marriage.

"Because of the engagement?"

"Well, I just think it's too sudden. I'm only 13 years old. This kind of thing should be far away from me."

Chu Qiu played with the weeds in his hand with a melancholy expression.

Song Qingye completely agrees with Chu Qiu's opinion, Chu Qiu is still a brat who doesn't understand anything, what kind of relationship is it, but this is just his opinion, he is not from this world after all, even if he disagrees, he can't interfere too much .

"Second brother, what is it like to get married? Am I overthinking it? Brothers of the same age as me in the village always sit together and discuss who they think is handsome and capable. Who else gave them something, what kind of man should they marry. I think they are full, so I might as well catch a few more fish."

Song Qingye: "..."

"You haven't met the person you like yet. Marriage means that two people, no matter whether they are poor or rich, sick or healthy, must support each other and go on, just like the word 'person', supporting each other and becoming a better person. good person."

Song Qingye wrote the word "person" to Chu Qiu on the ground.

Chu Qiu looked at him half-understood, Song Qingye patted his head, "You don't understand it now, but when you grow up, you will understand. Marriage represents a kind of responsibility, while love will Let that responsibility continue."

"However, to me, the most important thing is that a relationship makes you happy from the bottom of your heart."

Chu Qiu looked at him ignorantly, "Then second brother, are you happy that you are married to your elder brother?"

Song Qingye was stopped by Chu Qiu, is he happy?

Song Qingye encountered a lot of bad things when he came here, and Chu Yu is not a smooth talker, most of the time he is silent, but he can always stand up for himself.

Song Qingye didn't answer Chu Qiu's question. Chu Qiu looked at Song Qingye's profile and the corner of his slightly raised mouth, and had an answer in his heart.

Chu Yu retracted the foot that had been stepped forward, and finally went back into the room calmly.

The next day, Song Qingye was supposed to go to Yunxi Village next door with Chu Da and the others, but since the tofu workshop had just started, there were many things he had to deal with, so he had to hand over the investigation of Zheng Xiucai's character to Chu Yu, Chu Yu nodded silently.

"Will do."

Song Qingye thought that Chu Da and Liu Yuniang were easy to deceive, but Chu Yu was not easy to deceive, so he should be fine.

Song Qingye was so busy that his feet didn't touch the floor, and Chu Qiu had prepared lunch for him.

In the evening, the three of Chu Yu came back. Liu Yuniang and Chu Da smiled, but Chu Yu had no expression on his face.

"How about it?"

Song Qingye asked, and Liu Yunniang smiled and said to him: "Then Zheng Xiucai is a man of integrity. When we went there, he was shaking his head and reading with a book, and he seemed very knowledgeable when he spoke. I saw his younger brother too. Well, the mouth is sweet, his mother is also neat, and she keeps the house clean, and it is not easy for a woman to bring up two sons."

"Yeah, I personally talked about the dowry issue again, and I am willing to write a letter to express that I will never be greedy for a share of Qiuqiu's dowry. Tell us honestly, but now all the money in the family is given to him to study, and it is really not much. bride price."

Chu Da added, and Song Qingye frowned slightly. Could it be that he was overthinking it?

"This marriage is settled like this?"

Song Qingye saw that Chu Da and his wife were so happy, and he was afraid that they would settle down as soon as they were happy.

Liu Yunniang cast a reproachful look at Chu Yu, "No, Yu'er disagrees, she must have said it was too hasty, and I have to think about it again, thanks to Zheng Xiucai's family who don't care about it."

Liu Yuniang and Chu Da agreed that this was a good thing, but Chu Yu had weight at home, so they listened.

Liu Yunniang said to Song Qingye again: "Qingye, if this matter is settled, the 50 taels of dowry will be borrowed from you by your parents, and you will definitely pay it back in the future."

Song Qingye declined a few words, saying that there is no need to borrow, if he can become Chuqiu, he will also be his younger brother, and he will leave at 50 taels.

However, Liu Yuniang and Chu Da refused to agree, insisting that the account must be settled, and they must not take advantage of him.

Song Qingye couldn't refuse, so he said that we can wait until it's settled.Liu Yuniang and Chu Da didn't say anything more.

Liu Yunniang went to the kitchen to cook, and Song Qingye took Chu Yu back to the house, "How about Zheng Xiucai?"

"Noble, show off your knowledge."

It seems that Chu Yu doesn't like Zheng Xiucai very much, "What else?"

Chu Yu shook his head, "I don't see a big problem."

Song Qingye heard Chu Yu say that, could it be that he really thought too much?

"I don't worry, the two of us will go secretly tomorrow."

Chu Yu nodded, "Listen to you."

After speaking, he looked at Song Qingye thoughtfully. Song Qingye noticed his gaze and gave him a questioning look. Chu Yu shook his head and walked out.

Song Qingye didn't know why, "What happened to him?"

The next day Song Qingye deliberately changed into a more elegant clothes, and he was born well, which made him look different from ordinary people.

"Let's go."

Song Qingye patted Chu Yu's waist. Although he wanted to pat his back, he was not tall enough.

The two quietly went to Yunxi Village next door, but they didn't go to Zheng Xiucai's house, but went to a man on the road.

"This brother."

Song Qingye pretended to be a scholar. He looked handsome and dressed elegantly. When the man turned around, he thought he had met a fairy.

"Excuse me, is Zheng Xiucai's home here?"

After hearing this, the man realized that he was not a fairy, but a scholar.

He hesitated and wiped his clothes with the back of his hand, and said with a naive smile: "Yes, the young master is looking for Zheng Xiucai?"

"Exactly, I heard that Brother Zheng is very knowledgeable, knowledgeable, and a noble character, so I came to visit and asked for advice."

The man listened in a daze for a long time before he understood what Song Qingye said. He frowned and said to Song Qingye: "Young master, have you been deceived? Zheng Xiucai's grandfather was originally a scholar, so this Zheng Xiucai was educated by his grandfather since he was a child. He took part in the children's examination when he was 13 years old. He was admitted as a scholar only last year. He is already in his twenties, and he has been in the examination for seven years. Since his grandfather passed away After that, it won’t work. He talks all day long, and looks at people with his chin. His younger brother works in the casino in the town. His hands and feet are not clean. He is afraid of dirtying the ears of the young master. His old mother is also angry at her father-in-law. Husband took the wild man she hooked up with back to the house when he was seriously ill in bed."

Song Qingye was shocked, "This... How is this possible, this brother can't talk nonsense."

"Young master, you don't know about it. Everyone in our village knows about these things. It's not a rare thing."

Song Qingye thanked him in a trance, and the man looked at Song Qingye's leaving back and shook his head and sighed, remembering that the family who went to Zheng Xiucai's house to discuss marriage matters were probably kept in the dark like this young man Bar.

"Damn it, I know where there is such a good thing."

Song Qingye was so angry that he sweared, Chu Yu covered his mouth, "Don't swear."

Song Qingye pulled his hand down, "Okay, don't say it, it's too annoying."

The two stood on the side of the road angrily, and were about to go back home when Chu Yu grabbed him, "Wait."

"what happened?"

Song Qingye followed Chu Yu's gaze. A man in a long gown was talking and laughing with a woman in a pink dress. The two talked while walking, and the woman bowed her head and smiled sweetly from time to time.

"Zheng Xiucai."

Chu Yu explained, Song Qingye frowned, okay, discussing marriage with Chu Qiu over there, hooking up here, it's really a blessing.

That Zheng Xiucai looks pretty good, he looks like a dog, but he is far behind Chu Yu, whether it is appearance or temperament, it is simply a difference.

"Chu Chunni, Second Aunt's daughter."

Chu Yu paused and dropped another bombshell.

"How did these two hook up together?"

Chu Yu shook his head, Song Qingye looked at a man and a woman not far away, and suddenly smiled.

"I think they're a good match, don't you think?"

Chu Yu looked at Song Qingye and nodded, "Yes."
