After everyone had explained everything clearly, Cheng Jiawen left first. Xu's father and mother sat in the yard waiting for Cheng's mother to come with the matchmaker.
After waiting for a while, Cheng's mother came with the matchmaker.
The matchmaker was smiling, and before I even entered the door, I heard her joyful voice, "Second Sister-in-law Xu, the wedding is here~"
Mother Xu and Father Xu looked at each other, smiled and welcomed the two people into the house.
The matchmaker's face was full of smiles. As soon as she entered the door, she took Xu's mother's hand and said, "Come, come, Xu's second sister-in-law, there is good news."
"Hahaha, where does the joy come from?" Xu's mother also responded to the matchmaker's words with a smile on her face, and the atmosphere became lively in an instant.
When the matchmaker heard her say this, she knew that the betrothal money was secure. It seemed that both parties were interested, and she would not have to spend much effort to earn the money.
Xu's mother nodded to Cheng's mother and said, "Come in and sit down."
Seeing this, Cheng's mother pulled up a faint smile. As the saying goes, don't hit a smiling person. The other person has such a good attitude. If she still puts on a sullen face, it would be really unkind of a person. The two families are going to get married, not to become enemies. There is no need to go too far.
Several people sat down in the yard, and Xu's mother poured a glass of water for them. "Come, have some sugar water."
"Thank you." Mother Cheng took the water and took a sip. It tasted sweet. There was a lot of sugar in the water. It seemed that the Xu family attached great importance to this marriage.
The matchmaker drank some sugar water and felt even more satisfied. Just based on Xu's mother's attitude, she was determined to facilitate this marriage. She cleared her throat and said happily, "Sister-in-law Xu, I'm here today to help the Cheng family propose to your daughter Jiaojiao."
"This Cheng family's fourth son, Cheng Jiawen, is handsome, tall, and a high school student. He's a perfect match for your Jiaojiao." The matchmaker spoke to Xu's father and mother, listing all the advantages she could think of.
Hearing this, Mother Cheng also slowly said, "Yes, my fourth son sincerely wants to marry your Jiaojiao."
Mother Xu nodded. "I know Jiawen is a good kid, but as for the two children, let them get along for a while. If they both agree, we can arrange the marriage soon."
Mother Cheng nodded. "That's right. We came here today just to get your opinions. Since everyone is willing, let them get along for a while. We'll come and formally propose marriage in a few days."
"good."
Xu's mother and Cheng's mother looked at each other and reached a consensus. After chatting for a while, Xu's mother politely sent them out.
Back in the yard, Xu's mother looked at Xu's father and said with some confusion, "Is Cheng Jiawen really at odds with the family? It's really unbelievable that things went so smoothly today."
Father Xu also nodded with a hint of doubt, "Indeed, I didn't expect his mother to have such an attitude. I thought she would find fault."
If Cheng's mother knew what they were thinking, she would definitely laugh at their naiveté. This was already a certainty, and no matter how she made a fuss, it would not change anything. It would only make things worse and prolong the time.
Since they are going to get married, let them get married before dividing the grain, and then separate them before that. The benefits they get are real. What's the point of arguing about it?
-------------------------------------
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it's noon. The sun shines through the gaps in the leaves, like a string of golden chains. The breeze blows gently, and the leaves rustle, as if playing a lively concert.
Xu Qianjiao went home carrying her small backpack. She stood in the yard and looked around expectantly, but she saw only Xu's father and mother at home.
Xu's mother glanced at her and knew what she was thinking. She rolled her eyes secretly and said, "Forget it, stop looking. The person is gone."
Xu Qian smiled innocently, stepped forward and took Xu's mother's hand, and abruptly changed the subject, "Oh, Mom, I'm hungry. When are we eating?"
Xu's mother nodded helplessly. "Eat, eat, eat. All you do all day is eat. Wait a minute. Your dad is still cooking. It will be ready soon."
"Well, I'll go back to my room and change my clothes." After saying that, she put her small backpack by the yard and skipped towards the room.
Mother Xu looked at her helplessly and shook her head. This daughter was really going backwards as she grew older. But it was okay, at least she did not open her heart to us and was willing to accept us.
-------------------------------------
After lunch, Cheng Jiawen went to Xu's house to find Xu Qianjiao. Now that they had a clear path, they could finally visit the house openly.
Xu Qianjiao had just gotten up when she saw Cheng Jiawen standing in the yard. She was a little surprised, "Why are you here?"
Cheng Jiawen scratched his head and said a little embarrassedly: "Do you want to go up the mountain? I'll take you to eat."
"Go up the mountain?" Xu Qianjiao's eyes lit up when she heard this. Go up the mountain, and you can eat meat. She smiled and said impatiently, "Go, go, go."
"Wait a moment, I'll go change my clothes." After saying that, he hurried back to the room and changed into an old set of clothes and pants.
She walked to the edge of the yard, put on her small backpack, and said, "Let's go."
Cheng Jiawen nodded, walked up to her in a few steps and walked side by side with her.
The sun was shining brightly at two o'clock in the afternoon. The two of them walked in the mountains. Time seemed to slow down. They strolled in the mountains, relaxed, and enjoyed this moment of tranquility.
This time, Cheng Jiawen did not take her into the mountains, but only took her to a nearby hill, preparing to hunt nearby.
