"Father, which family does that girl Mother mentioned belong to? What's she like?"
Yu Chengyuan had just finished making spicy fish with fermented black beans and packed it in a jar when he saw his father, Yu Dazhu, carrying a hoe as he walked in.
He quickly placed the spicy fish with fermented black beans on the table, hurried over, and asked curiously.
He wasn't really asking about this out of pure curiosity; he just wanted to find out about the woman's family situation first.
After all, this was his brother's marriage, and subconsciously he always felt that his brother's destiny should be with that girl Jiang Haitang.
"I'm not too sure either. The person was introduced by your Aunt Zhou, so it shouldn't be too bad!"
I heard that she's her cousin from her maternal family, and she's incredibly pretty!
She's twenty this year, three or four years younger than your brother, which is quite suitable.
"Why are you asking about this? It's not like I'm setting you up on a blind date." Yu Dazhu joked, a smile on his face.
It was clear that Dad was very happy.
It gives people the feeling of being in high spirits when something good happens.
No wonder, he must be happy now that his two sons' major life events are settled.
Isn't that what all parents think?
"Dad, what are you saying!"
My older brother is going on a blind date, how could I not care!
That's my future sister-in-law. If she treats my brother badly, he'll suffer.
"So I have to give my brother a heads-up." Yu Chengyuan replied with a grin.
"You've only dated one person, what experience could you possibly have? And you're here to vet your older brother?"
Forget it, let's just watch and not worry about anything.
Your mother will take care of this.
Yu Dazhu smiled as he put the hoe behind the door, picked up a reed hanging on the wall, and dusted himself off.
"Father, you can't say that."
Although I've only dated one person, I have excellent taste.
Look at your daughter-in-law, Sulan. She's beautiful, knowledgeable, and kind-hearted.
Dad, I've found you such a wonderful daughter-in-law. You're so proud of yourself! Everyone in the village envies you and Mom!
What does this tell us?
That just shows I have a unique perspective!
So when my older brother goes on blind dates, I definitely have to be there to keep an eye on things!
Don't worry, I absolutely won't cause any trouble.
I'm also looking forward to my older brother getting married soon!
Yu Chengyuan thought to himself that he had lived two lives, so his judgment of people must be good.
"Hahaha... You're just lucky, you got lucky. Such a good girl like Su Lan ended up with you."
Alright, stop meddling. Tomorrow, the girl from that side and her mother are coming over for lunch at our house. If you cook a few of your best dishes, that will be a huge help to your brother.
Also, when you come back tomorrow, buy two pounds of meat and one pound of ribs. We already have fish at home, so we don't need to buy any.
Oh, and get some spicy crayfish too.
In Yu Dazhu's eyes, his youngest son was just very lucky to have married a good wife.
He's so young, how could he possibly know how to judge people?
Thinking that her youngest son was a good cook, she let him take charge of the cooking.
"Dad, I have no problem cooking for you, but I also need to be there when you go on the blind date."
Dad, believe me, I have excellent eyesight. No one can escape my keen eyes.
I'm just worried that my brother will get scammed. He's such an honest and simple guy, how could he possibly tell if a girl is good or bad?
Yu Chengyuan continued to pester his father.
Logically speaking, he should avoid his brother's blind date; it would be fine if his parents, the matchmaker, the girl, and her family were present.
But he was really worried, so he had to keep an eye on things from the side.
Yu Dazhu thought about it and felt that it made sense, so he nodded and said, "Okay!"
But you just stay here and watch, and don't say a word!
After all, the younger son has been doing business outside and has met many people, so staying might not be a bad thing.
He also believed that his youngest son was a sensible person and would not deliberately cause trouble.
Once Yu Chengyuan saw that his father had agreed, he stopped pressing the matter.
Then he asked about other things.
"Dad, did you talk to Carpenter Li about making a children's bed?"
"I already told you, Carpenter Li is already working on it," Yu Dazhu replied with a smile.
"Dad, do we still have a lot of wood left from the last time we cut it down?" Yu Chengyuan then asked.
"Hmm, there are still quite a few!"
Why are you asking this?
Yu Dazhu nodded, looking at his son with a puzzled expression.
“Dad, my bed is too old and too small. It creaks and groans if you move it even slightly. I’m thinking of getting a bigger bed made.”
A large bed that is 1.8 meters by 2 meters.
If we don't have enough wood, I'll go up the mountain to cut more.
Yu Chengyuan scratched the back of his head and smiled sheepishly.
Yu Dazhu immediately understood and said with a smile, "You little rascal, I got it. I'll go talk to Carpenter Li later and deliver the wood to him while I'm at it."
However, one bed has enough wood, but two are not enough.
"You two brothers go and cut some more later, and we'll make a new big bed for each of you."
Yu Dazhu thought he should make two if he was going to do it, and his eldest son was also going on a blind date, so he figured he'd be getting married soon.
So since it'll be just the two of us sleeping there anyway, we might as well just break up the big bed together.
"Alright, it's not dark yet, my brother and I will go to the back mountain to cut down trees."
Yu Chengyuan nodded, inwardly regretting that he hadn't thought things through and had almost forgotten about his elder brother. What a sin!
"Okay, now I'll deliver the timber to Carpenter Li's house, and the rest is up to you two brothers."
After Yu Dazhu finished speaking, he turned around and prepared to leave.
"Dad, wait a minute, I'll draw a blueprint for you. I saw it in a shopping mall in the city, it's so beautiful."
Yu Chengyuan quickly ran back to his room, grabbed a pencil and paper, and with a few quick strokes, finished the drawing.
Yu Dazhu looked at the sketch of the large bed on the blueprint and thought it was really quite beautiful. This second son of his really liked these novelties.
Never mind, as long as the children are happy, that's all that matters. I've neglected my two children in the past.
And my daughter, I wonder how she's doing now.
Yu Dazhu put away the blueprints, his expression suddenly turning serious.
Back then, Wang arranged for her daughter to marry a disabled old man in a remote mountain area.
Because the bride price was high, Wang didn't care whether her daughter was willing or not, nor did she care about their opinions.
It was because the couple was timid and cowardly that they resisted and were punished by being forbidden from eating for two days.
The eldest daughter was filial and couldn't bear it, so she agreed to marry him.
It's been five years now, and he's only come back once, on the day of his bride's return visit.
They had visited him once or twice a couple of years ago, and the old man seemed to treat their daughter quite well.
I didn't have children then, and I don't know if I have children now. I haven't heard from my daughter to announce the good news. Does that mean I don't have children yet?
"Father, what's wrong?"
Why did your face suddenly turn so pale?
Yu Chengyuan noticed that his father's expression was off, so he quickly asked.
