The villagers had never seen anything like it before, so they all found it very strange. Whether they were attending the banquet or not, they all came over to watch the excitement!

Even people from the neighboring village, upon hearing the news, braved the cold and made a special trip over.

This is a huge joke, the kind of joke that can be told for years to come!

It seems there aren't many benefits besides that!

Although the village chief spoke very coldly, he was generous with everything he could give Liu Qianqian, and even the banquet was very well organized!

According to him, what the eldest daughter had before, the youngest daughter will have too. He doesn't favor either of them and doesn't want to complain about it later. As for how they live in the future, that's their own choice, and they shouldn't blame anyone else at all!

In short, you have to walk the path you chose, even if it's full of thorns and pits!

Many people who know the truth understand the village chief's bitterness and helplessness. They watch the spectacle but don't cause trouble; they just quietly observe from the sidelines.

Didn't the village chief feel bad after saying those things?

Of course it hurts!

He was so worried about his daughter that he was losing clumps of hair, couldn't sleep at night, and had no energy during the day. He was just barely holding on. He hoped countless times that his daughter would regret it and he would immediately cancel everything!

Unfortunately, I was ultimately disappointed!

They never even heard their daughter say she didn't want to get married!

In fact, before Liu Qianqian got married, the village chief had talked to her many times, as a friend, not as an old father, and tried to talk to her calmly. Unfortunately, it was to no avail; Liu Qianqian had no intention of changing her mind.

Later, the village chief felt that it was probably due to his status that he was not good at speaking, which would only have a negative effect. So he secretly invited some people from the village to talk to him. Those people did not try to persuade him, but instead chatted, told stories, and boasted. In the end, it was still no use!

It's estimated that Liu Qianqian eventually realized what was happening and became even more rebellious, determined to see things through to the end without any regrets. She was even happily preparing for her wedding!

The village chief eventually gave up. Since that's the case, let's grant her wish!

Ultimately, I haven't experienced enough!

Liu Qianqian originally thought she was strong enough. During this period, everything she did went smoothly without any obstacles, which made her even more convinced that no matter who she married in the future, she would still find happiness!

So, she felt sad, but not much.

Su Nanxi was also present and witnessed the whole process. She saw Liu Qianqian's expression clearly. She was sure that Liu Qianqian did not feel too reluctant. On the contrary, she felt a sense of relief.

As time went on, it became clear that Liu Qianqian did indeed feel relieved, and she felt that she had taken another step closer to her goal!

This is something that ordinary people cannot understand!

The villagers were sensible; they quickly finished their wedding banquet and left.

Some people ran home, while others went to see Liu Qianqian's antics.

Su Nanxi didn't pay attention to what happened after that. She wasn't in the mood for the wedding banquet, so she just sat down to pay her respects and then went home.

This was not a glorious thing, and everyone tacitly agreed not to mention it again. Not for any other reason than because of the village chief, no one dared to gossip.

But just because the villagers don't talk about it doesn't mean no one else is. This kind of thing is so rare that it's no exaggeration to say it's shocking!

Anyway, everyone's got nothing to do, and it'd be hard not to gossip!

Who doesn't choose to talk about interesting, bizarre, and novel things?

This matter couldn't be kept secret at all, and it quickly spread far and wide. People in very distant places heard about it and talked about it with great interest!

Such a dramatic move naturally attracts a lot of attention!

After Liu Qianqian got married, the village returned to its former tranquility.

At this time, Zhao the matchmaker was the busiest, her legs were almost broken from running around, and she was going everywhere to play matchmaker!

According to Matchmaker Zhao, this is the busiest time of year for matchmaking. Good days are all at this time. If you're not busy now, when will you be?

Here's a local custom: they say that at the end of the year, people of marriageable age will start looking for wives so they can bring a wife home for the New Year!

Su Nanxi didn't know why such a saying would come about; it sounded a bit funny, but that's how people here do things!

I've heard that marrying someone and bringing them home for the New Year will bring you good luck in the coming year!

So, there were indeed two families in the village where wives were married, but they were both original residents.

They didn't have much money, so they didn't hold a banquet. Instead, they invited the elders of the clan to have a meal together, which was equivalent to recognizing relatives. They simply brought the person back, and after three simple bows, it was considered a done deal!

This is something that can be done lavishly if you have money, or shrewdly or not at all if you don't. It's flexible and free, without any coercion, and it's all based on your own actual situation.

However, this makes a difference for matchmakers, since the money they receive is different!

Su Nanxi had just gone out, and Mo Laoda and Mo Laoer had also gone out, leaving only the two old people at home.

The matchmaker, Zhao, suddenly showed up at the door, but dared not come in, afraid that the wolfhounds would suddenly give her a big hug!

Right at the entrance of the Mo family's gate, Matchmaker Zhao called out Old Madam Mo, smiling broadly, making it clear that something was up.

Moreover, it looks like a good thing, a happy event!

A matchmaker finding someone is definitely a major life event!

But Old Mrs. Mo was dumbfounded, because there was no one of marriageable age in her family!

What do you want with her?

Was it introduced to those two nephews?

She was filled with suspicion, but still went out.

Matchmaker Zhao laughed so hard she was shaking. If it weren't for her status as a matchmaker, she probably would have been beaten up in the village!

"Sister-in-law Mo, this is wonderful news!"

Matchmaker Zhao got straight to the point, saying there was good news, but she didn't say exactly what it was, and just covered her mouth and laughed.

Grandma Mo was completely baffled. "What happy occasion? Is it yours or mine?"

"Hey! Of course it's yours! If it were mine, why would I bother coming here to brag about it? Wouldn't that annoy people? I don't want to get beaten up, do I?"

Grandma Mo was even more puzzled. "Then tell me, what happy event is this in my family? My eldest daughter-in-law hasn't even given birth yet. This sudden happy event of yours has completely baffled me!"

Matchmaker Zhao looked up and glanced in the direction of Mo Wenying's house, giving a subtle hint with her eyes—it was quite obvious!

Following the direction pointed out by Matchmaker Zhao, Old Lady Mo's face darkened immediately when she saw it was her daughter's house. "You want to be a matchmaker for my daughter?"

Zhao, the matchmaker, was a seasoned veteran in the matchmaking business. She had seen all kinds of people and experienced all kinds of situations. Old Lady Mo's reaction was nothing to worry about, so she didn't take it to heart at all!

She did indeed want to act as a matchmaker for Mo Wenying. The Mo family was wealthy, and if the match was successful, the matchmaker's fee would certainly be substantial, much better than if she had arranged several marriages for ordinary families!

I didn't dare to say it before because there wasn't a suitable candidate. Now that there is, it's a great opportunity!

We have to get this done no matter what!

"My daughter has no intention of remarrying!"
