But Durant was focused on making a big use of it.
"Mother, I need Brother Dayong."
The three brothers were startled upon hearing this.
What? What happened? Do you need it or not?
Du Lan ran up to Qiao Dayong with a silly grin, looked up at him with admiration.
"Brother Dayong, you're the most handsome. I want to marry you."
Da Yong's face turned pale and then red, his brows furrowing: "You little brat, what nonsense are you spouting? How can you just say things like that?"
Kang quickly pulled Du Lan back and scolded her in a low voice, "It's not Dayong, you're going to marry Dacheng. Dayong is about to marry another girl. Be good, Dacheng is not bad either. If you don't listen, you won't be able to eat big fish and meat every day, you won't be able to wear the best clothes, and you won't be able to carry a few taels of pocket money with you at all times."
Duran pouted, clearly unwilling.
But she had to admit that she didn't want to give up those benefits, so she had to settle for second best.
So she slowly moved in front of Dacheng, her head slightly lowered, showing her reluctance.
"Brother Dacheng, then it's you. I think you're someone I can entrust my life to. You're a good person."
Da Meng covered his mouth, but laughter still inevitably escaped, and his shoulders were shaking.
He quickly ran away, afraid that if his second brother refused, it would be his turn. This is what is meant by "a wise man does not stand under a dangerous wall."
Da Cheng looked at Du Lao Er and Kang Shi with a cold face.
"Uncle, Aunt, is this the daughter you raised? She seems a little mentally unstable. You should take her home and discipline her."
He's not bad-looking, but he's a bit simple-minded.
Du Lao Er and Kang Shi weren't fools; they knew this approach was inappropriate, but they had already been rejected and kicked out by the elders, so there was no time for roundabout ways of expressing their feelings. It was better to be direct.
If they can find someone they like, and the younger one insists, how can the older one not make a decision?
But to everyone's surprise, Durant insisted on giving him a big role, which led to an unpleasant situation and a joke.
Du Lao Er's face turned ashen, and he took a deep breath to compose himself.
“My daughter is a bit straightforward and doesn’t have any of those roundabout thoughts. When she’s of age and has taken a liking to someone, she’ll be direct. Marriage is the same for men and women in the end, there’s no need to hide it.”
“Nephew Dacheng, since my daughter is interested in you and wants to live with you, tell me if my daughter’s appearance is suitable.”
Da Cheng fell silent.
When it comes to matters of marriage, things always seem a bit off for him. For example, he took a liking to Ling Yin, but his older brother also liked her, so he had to give up.
Now, another simple-minded girl ran up to them.
Moreover, he'll set his sights on the eldest brother first, and the eldest brother won't let him have a chance.
Da Cheng wanted to cry but had no tears.
He must have committed some terrible sins in his past life.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Du Lao Er was secretly pleased; the child must be considering it.
He pressed his advantage, saying, "My daughter is a bit naive, but she's hardworking, and you're steady and reliable. You're a perfect match for her. If you're interested, our two families can arrange the marriage."
"Yes, look at her, her round face is auspicious for marriage, and she's strong and fertile."
Kang passed Duran around.
Old Man Qiao and Old Woman Qiao didn't try to stop them; they were just watching to see them make a fool of themselves. They knew that their grandson would never be interested in this family.
"Alright, I'm not interested in her. You can take her back."
After a day of collecting taxes and walking countless miles, Da Cheng was exhausted. He left after saying this and went back to his room to change.
The couple were furious, but since the other party didn't want it, they couldn't force it on them.
They searched for Da Meng's figure again, but Da Meng had long since disappeared.
Du Lao Er snorted: "My daughter has no trouble getting married. If your Qiao family insists on being so ruthless, we will not have the nerve to come looking for you again."
