Shu Yu transmigrated into a book and became a cannon fodder character who was doomed to be killed. She only appeared twice before being banished thousands of miles away. After realizing that she co...
Chapter 1968 Maybe he'll get it tomorrow.
Shu Yu looked at Meng Yunzheng suspiciously. "I heard the three of them are back? He's so busy, where did he hear that?"
There must be something else going on.
Sure enough, after dinner, while the others chatted in the courtyard, Shu Rui and the others, regretting not being able to meet Da Niu, went back inside. Meng Yunzheng gave Shu Yu a wink, and the two went back to the house alone to talk.
Meng Yunzheng said, "I met with Xun Sheng and Gan Rui this afternoon."
Shu Yu was taken aback, then her lips twitched. "Gan Rui mentioned A-Han to you?"
Meng Yunzheng is Meng Han's cousin and, currently, the most capable person in the Meng family. Moreover, he is located in the prefectural city. If Gan Rui truly has those kinds of feelings for Meng Han, it would be reasonable for him to pay him a visit first.
I just didn't expect him to be in such a hurry. As soon as Xun Sheng returned, he couldn't wait to drag people to look for him.
Meng Yunzheng looked up, "You know what he thinks of Ahan..."
Shu Yu nodded. "I can see that." She recounted Gan Rui's behavior over the past few days. "Today I asked Jiang Fengshou about the Gan family's situation. I was originally planning to talk to you about it tomorrow, but I didn't expect Gan Rui to contact you first. Since he contacted you, what are your thoughts?"
Meng Yunzheng was speechless and had a headache. "I didn't think much about it and just let him go."
"ah?"
"After he left, I made a special trip to learn about the Gan family. The Gan family has a good family tradition. If Ahan, with her innocent and lively personality, were to marry into the Gan family, it would indeed be much easier for her, without so many twists and turns and schemes."
Gan Rui, in particular, was quite fond of her.
The Gan family is wealthy, with capable elder brothers and sisters-in-law, so she doesn't need to manage such a large household. Gan Rui is also a scholar, and might even advance further in the future. If Meng Han marries into the family, she will have no worries about food and clothing, and will live a carefree life.
If she suffers any injustice, he will stand up for her; she doesn't need to worry about having no one to back her up.
But no matter how good the Gan family is, Meng Han has to be willing to accept it.
But Meng Han is clearly not quite there yet. Besides, she's still young, so there's no need to rush her.
Shu Yu laughed, “We all think she’s still young and we know there’s no need to rush. But your aunt is anxious. Do you really think Ahan ran here just to play in the prefectural city? There’s already a lot of bloodshed in Chenggu County where families want to marry Ahan.”
In those days, it was very common for people to get engaged at the age of fourteen and marry after reaching the age of fifteen.
Once the engagement is finalized, it's actually fine to wait until the daughter turns eighteen to get married. People will think that the parents want to keep their daughter for two more years, which is a sign of their love for her.
But if you're eighteen and still not engaged, people will think there's something wrong with you, otherwise why wouldn't anyone come to propose marriage?
Tao used to focus all her attention on Tao Qin and neglected Meng Han too much.
Later, after much painful reflection and remorse, he devoted himself entirely to Meng Han, but his devotion went too far.
Meng Han, a soft-hearted girl, couldn't bring herself to say anything harsh to Tao, who was trying so hard to make amends. So, seeing Tao's enthusiasm, the only thing she could think of was to run away.
Meng Yunzheng seemed to be thinking about something, "I'll talk to my uncle and aunt later."
"Turn back? Do you have the time?"
Meng Yunzheng choked, "In short, Ahan is still young and hasn't figured things out yet. If Gan Rui really has the will, let him work hard slowly. If he can wait, he can wait; if he can't, there's nothing we can do."
Shu Yu laughed, "Maybe he'll get it by tomorrow."
