Chapter 327 What do you want?



Chapter 327 What do you want?

Ye Hufen said in embarrassment: "I will ask her about this later and see what she says."

Matchmaker Liu sighed, "It doesn't matter. If she doesn't like it, it's okay. Go back and ask her what kind of person she wants. Tell me clearly whether she wants someone who is handsome, well-educated, or richer. As long as you give the conditions, there is nothing that can't be found."

"As the saying goes, you should bow your head to marry a daughter-in-law and raise your head to marry a daughter! You can also find a young master from a wealthy family in the county. But I think Lu Yang is better."

In the past, it would have been impossible to find a wealthy family for Xiaoyan.

But times are different now.

Although Ye Hufen is divorced, the girl's grandfather is still very supportive and actually owns shares in the furniture workshop.

She also has a powerful aunt who has a royal title. Although she is a cousin, she is still very close to her!

Now she has made her own living and opened an embroidery shop.

I think it would be okay to be a young master from a wealthy family, but I'm afraid that such a family would be too extravagant and have impure motives.

But after looking at eight or nine of them, he is still not satisfied.

Matchmaker Liu thought that this girl wanted to climb up the social ladder and become a royal lady.

But everyone has their own aspirations, and there's nothing wrong with wanting to move up.

Ye Hufen said: "I'll ask her later!"

"Okay, okay, tell her not to be shy and just speak out. There will always be someone suitable."

After the matchmaker left, Second Aunt Ye and Ye Hufen returned to the house.

Ye Hufen asked worriedly, "What kind of person does Xiaoyan want?"

Xiaoyan sighed softly, "Mom, I don't want to date anymore. I just want to concentrate on running the shop. I don't need a matchmaker to bother looking for me in the future."

She has someone in her heart.

But as a girl, she couldn't possibly take the initiative to ask him for marriage, right?

She has been seeing him for such a long time, but he is still indifferent. It seems that he doesn't have her in his heart.

Last time he picked up her flowers, she thought...

Thinking of this, Xiaoyan shook her head.

Let's take it easy for now, we'll talk about marriage later.

Second Aunt Ye was very anxious, and Ye Hufen said, "If she doesn't want to, forget it. She can wait another year or two."

Second Aunt Ye was getting angry: "Then...if someone takes the initiative to propose marriage, if Xiaoyan is free, can she also take a look?"

Xiaoyan didn't want to refuse her kindness, so she nodded: "Thank you, grandma, I'll talk about this when I have time."

Xiaoyan and Ye Hufen left together.

When I returned to Ye Caiping's house, I saw Zhao Fan coming out.

When Zhao Fan saw Xiaoyan, his heart trembled. He tightly grasped the account book in his hand and stammered, "Hello, Aunt Fen, Hello, Miss Xiaoyan."

Xiaoyan's heart ached slightly and she nodded shyly.

Ye Hufen said with a smile: "Is Fan giving Caiping the account book?"

"Yes, yes. I have something else to do in the workshop. I will go back first."

After saying that, he left quickly.

Ye Hufen looked at his hurried back and said with a smile, "Every time I see this kid, he is always flustered and can't even speak complete sentences. I heard that he is in charge of the accounting and workshop for my younger sister. Is it okay for him to be like this?"

Xiaoyan twisted her handkerchief tightly: "How would I know?"

"Hey, why are you stuttering too?"

"No way!" After saying that, he walked into the door first.

......

Zhao Fan walked towards the Hu La Tang workshop with a dejected look.

"I just saw the young man from my mother's family. He was leaving with the matchmaker!" Two village women walked by, each holding a basin of clothes, talking as they walked by.

"Oh, you came with the matchmaker? That means they are here to propose marriage. Do you see any family without a matchmaker?"

"It seems like I have entered Uncle Youliang's house, but Uncle Youliang's two granddaughters are only a few years old."

"That means Xiaoyan. I heard from Aunt Liang that she has already asked a matchmaker to find a marriage partner for Xiaoyan. She has been looking for a long time. From ordinary farmers to wealthy families, she has not found anyone she likes."

"Alas, Xiaoyan has learned a lot from Caiping, and has opened an embroidery shop with Jinhua. I heard that she can earn dozens of taels a month!"

"She's so amazing, she must marry into a wealthy family and become a young lady."

"Of course! I can earn dozens of taels every month, so it's only right for me to find a rich young master."

The two village women left laughing and chatting.

Zhao Fan's mood became more and more depressed, and even his footsteps felt like they were stepping on stones.

Before the Mid-Autumn Festival, after he returned the velvet flower to Xiaoyan, he realized that he must have fallen in love with Xiaoyan...

But later, a lot of things happened to the Ye family.

Forced marriage, passing the imperial examination, receiving titles, etc...

It would be a bad idea for me to ask a matchmaker to propose marriage at this time.

When I came to my senses, Miss Xiaoyan was already preparing to set up the embroidery shop and the matchmaker.

Miss Xiaoyan's business improved and she became the owner of an embroidery shop.

I have no family background, no fame, and no money. I'm just a small accountant. How can I be worthy of her?

An aunt from the same village who just passed by said that even her family didn’t become wealthy, so there was no way she could become wealthy.

On October 7th, the team of craftsmen finally arrived and construction of the bridge began.

The work team lived in a newly built thatched cottage in the village and ate their meals in the outer courtyard of Ye Caiping's house.

Old Hong lives in the back house of Ye Caiping's house. He ate together with Ye Caiping's family a few days ago, and now he eats from a big pot with the team of craftsmen.

Ye Caiping repeatedly invited him to continue eating at the table, but Mr. Hong refused, saying that he was more comfortable eating with the craftsmen.

Ye Caiping followed his wishes, and the big pot meal was not shabby, with one meat and one vegetable.

Shen Zhiyan also participated in the design of this bridge, and he comes here every now and then to stroll around.

He said he came to see the bridge, but actually he came to see her.

In addition, he also wrote a letter every day, containing various poems and songs.

Ye Caiping could hardly fit any more pillows in the room, so she had to put them in the drawer.

Looking at the stack of letters, Ye Caiping sighed, the top scholar is the top scholar, he can really write.

I can write thousands of words every day, and they are all different every day, so I can write new meanings in every letter. It seems like there is endless ink in my stomach.

After reading today's letter, Ye Caiping felt sweet in her heart and prepared to take a tour of the furniture workshop.

Ye Caiping passed by the west wing and saw Xiaoyan sitting on the Luohan bed doing embroidery. She couldn't help but stop:

"Hey, doesn't Xiaoyan have to work in the embroidery shop?"

Xiaoyan came out with a smile: "It's my own work, I can do it at home. I have agreed with Jinhua that we will each look after the shop for half a month. One of us will work with the embroiderers in the shop, and the other will work at home."

Ye Caiping smiled: "You have a good division of labor."

"How come my aunt has become more beautiful? She looks so good!"

Xiaoyan looked at Ye Caiping's face. Her skin was white with a rosy glow, and her eyes were full of spirit, which made Ye Caiping's pure beauty exude a graceful tenderness.

Ye Caiping covered her face with one hand: "Really? Haha, that must be because I'm in a good mood and sleep well recently! Hey, why do you look a little haggard? Your eyes are dark."

Xiaoyan also covered her face with her hands, her expression slightly stiff: "Haha, that must be because I'm in a bad mood and can't sleep well recently!"

"Is it about the shop? Now that you've made some money, don't mistreat yourself. Hire two more embroiderers to work with you."

"Thank you, Auntie. I will."

Ye Caiping turned around and left happily.
