Chapter 271: The Matchmaker

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In June, the weather got worse.

Because they were close and because Chen Daniu, Chen Erniu, and Su Xiaoling had reached the marriageable age, they stayed at home to make sauerkraut and pickles.

In the shop, Su Sanlang, Madam Zhao, Chen Hu, and Madam Qian were busy.

In June, the weather became even hotter.

On June 14th, when a matchmaker came to find Madam Qian to ask about Chen Daniu, Madam Zhao was also present.

Coincidentally, all the sauerkraut and pickles were sold out.

They invited the matchmaker, Madam Zhu, into the shop to speak in detail.

Madam Zhu was here for Chen Daniu, so she was very enthusiastic towards Madam Qian.

Madam Qian also smiled and greeted Madam Zhu. She asked, “Sister, which family is it? Are they interested in Daniu or Erniu?”

Madam Zhu smiled and said enthusiastically, “Qian, it’s the child of the Luo family in Changqing Village. His name is Luo Chuan. Both his parents are dead. His biological Auntie dragged me here to be a matchmaker to ask your Daniu. Her family is willing to pay ten taels of silver as a betrothal gift. If it succeeds, Daniu will be able to go over and be the head of the family. There will definitely be no mother-in-law suppressing her.”

“Chuan is also a diligent person. The ten acres of land at home are all planted. There’s a bumper harvest every year. If Daniu marries, there will definitely be something to look forward to.”

Madam Zhu said with a smile as she quietly sized up Madam Qian’s expression to see her reaction.

Madam Qian frowned when she heard that it was Luo Chuan. Luo Chuan had been called off by the Su family last year.

Originally, he was engaged to Su Yufang, but Su Yufang and Xu Bowen got together and broke off the engagement. They even made a scene. Although it wasn’t Luo Chuan’s fault, Madam Qian knew that the Luo family wasn’t to blame. She just didn’t want to choose the Luo family because of the Su family.

Madam Qian’s enthusiasm cooled down. She still said to Madam Zhu gently, “Sister, I can’t answer you for the time being. I have to go back and discuss it with my husband. I’ll give you a reply in a few days.”

Madam Qian was glad that Chen Hu and Su Sanlang had something on and were not here.

Madam Zhu was good at reading someone’s body language and knew that Madam Qian was a little unhappy. Madam Zhu was also an honest person. She smiled and nodded. “Alright, alright, alright. We definitely have to discuss such a big matter. Then I’ll come and ask you the answer in two days.”

“Then you guys go ahead. I won’t disturb you anymore.”

Madam Zhu knew when to advance and when to retreat. After saying what she needed to say, she didn’t pester them anymore.

Madam Qian nodded and Madam Zhao sent her off with a smile.

After Madam Zhu left, Madam Qian said to Madam Zhao, “Sister-in-law, what do you think we should do? It’s been half a year since that incident, and no matchmaker came. I’m quite anxious. Now that a matchmaker is here, I’m happy, but it’s the Luo family. I feel a little upset.”

“When Luo Chuan came to break off Su Yufang’s engagement, it was Su Yufang who sent a fake letter. At first, the Luo family didn’t know the truth and they also came to break off the engagement. Does this mean that the Luo family only cares about the health of the woman? Later on, they did find out the truth. However, I’m worried that if I reject it, in the future, there will be fewer and fewer people coming to ask for Daniu…”

Madam Qian was very worried.

Madam Zhao patted her hand and comforted her. “Sister-in-law, don’t think too much first. Tell Hu later and ask Daniu for her opinion.”

Madam Qian nodded. “Alright, thank you, Sister-in-law. I’ll ask when I get back tonight.”

After packing up, they closed the shop and went home together.

At night, Madam Zhao told Su Sanlang about this.

Su Sanlang said, “Sister-in-law’s concerns make sense, but let’s hear Daniu’s opinion.”

Madam Zhao could not help but ask, “Sanlang, if it were you, would you agree?”

Su Sanlang shook his head. “I wouldn’t agree. Su Yufang didn’t want Luo Chuan, and Xu Bowen made Daniu suffer because of Su Yufang. If Daniu and Luo Chuan are together, it’s inevitable that they will compare. This will be a lot of pressure and make people feel very uncomfortable.”

Madam Zhao echoed, “I think so too. However, if Daniu really becomes Luo Chuan’s girlfriend, I’ll guide her with Sister-in-law.”

However, this was only the couple’s opinion.

If Chen Daniu really married Luo Chuan, they would naturally give them their blessings. If it was a foregone conclusion, they would counsel her more.

Su Sanlang smiled. “Well, that can wait.”

Madam Zhao also nodded. The couple hugged each other and fell asleep.

At this moment, Chen Hu and Madam Qian were also discussing this matter.

After hearing Madam Qian’s words, Chen Hu thought about it carefully and said, “Darling, Luo Chuan doesn’t have parents at home. This is indeed beneficial. At least our Daniu doesn’t have to worry about being tortured by her mother-in-law, but what you said makes sense. We can’t guarantee that her health will always be good. I don’t feel comfortable thinking about this. However, take the time to talk to her tomorrow morning and see what she thinks.”

“If she’s unwilling, we’ll reject the offer. We’re not familiar with the others in town yet. When we’re familiar with them, someone will ask about Daniu and Erniu.”

Chen Hu thought of his eldest daughter and instructed Madam Qian seriously, “Last time, Daniu was very injured. If she settles with Luo Chuan, she might be affected for the rest of her life.

Luo Chuan was an only son, so he definitely wanted to have more children. Was this the reason why he cared about a woman’s health?

Giving birth to children hurts one’s body. If our Daniu didn’t give birth to a son, would Luo Chuan be unhappy?

All of this needs to be considered. Actually, I don’t really want to agree to this, but I’ll still ask Daniu and see what she thinks.”

Madam Qian nodded. She was also worried about what Chen Hu had said.

Madam Qian said, “Hu, I’ll ask Daniu tomorrow morning. I’ll tell Daniu all of this and see what she thinks.”

Chen Hu nodded. “Alright, it’s getting late. Let’s sleep too.”

The next morning, Madam Qian took the time to talk to Chen Daniu.

Chen Daniu listened quietly. She immediately felt a little uneasy and did not know what to do.

Madam Qian patted Chen Daniu’s hand and said, “Daniu, mother told that matchmaker that we will consider it for two days. You don’t have to rush. Think about it slowly.”

With that, Madam Qian left.

Chen Daniu also told Su Xiaoling and Chen Erniu what had happened while working.

Su Xiaolu was practicing her sword next door. She was not eavesdropping. This time was really an accident.

When she heard that, she put away her sword and sat down to practice her inner force.

She could also listen to her sister chatting with Chen Daniu and Chen Erniu in the courtyard next door.

Should Chen Daniu agree or not?

Chen Erniu waited for Chen Daniu to finish speaking before saying firmly, “Sister, it’s better to reject it. Otherwise, others will compare you to Su Yufang for the rest of your lives. As long as Luo Chuan’s official position is not as advanced as Xu Bowen’s, no matter how good Luo Chuan is, he can’t compare to Xu Bowen in the eyes of others. He’s still inferior to Xu Bowen.”
