Chapter 1014 The Liang family has also arrived.
The old lady and the orchid, "..." How can you talk about yourself like that?
Being a matchmaker for you means you're incredibly bold? Do you think you're some kind of monster?
The old lady glared at her, annoyed, before saying, "There were several. Anyway, as soon as the matchmakers came and heard that they wanted to set you up, I simply refused them without even listening. I just said that you weren't old enough to come of age yet. Otherwise, if they told me their names and status and I refused, people would think that you looked down on them, which would be bad."
Shu Yu gave the old lady a thumbs up, "Grandma, you're so wise."
Lan Hua sighed enviously, "I wish my mother could do that too."
However, none of them knew that even though the old lady refused without knowing the other party's identity, it still made others think that Shu Yu, the newly appointed village head, was extremely arrogant.
Actually, compared to Shu Yu, there were more people coming to propose marriage to Shu You.
Shu Yu is the head of the village, and people whose circumstances are not even slightly suitable dare not come to propose marriage to her, but Shu You is different. In everyone's eyes, she has been divorced, but she is young and still a virgin, which makes many people eager to try their luck, all feeling that they might have a chance.
This idea wasn't limited to the county seat; some people in Shangshi Village shared it as well.
Lan Hua had seen it before; the other party had approached Li Shi, and spoke eloquently as if she had gotten a good deal by liking Shu You. Even Li Shi couldn't tolerate this, since if Daya married poorly, it would affect her daughter as well, so she directly kicked the person out.
The old lady snorted coldly when she heard this. "If this kind of person comes again, just kick them out. Your sister Ayou's marriage is none of anyone else's business. In a while, my second son and I will pick a good day and settle the marriage."
Orchid's eyes widened. "Grandma, you, you mean..."
The old lady nodded slightly, but couldn't help but smile. "Hmm, the other party has good character."
Lan Hua was incredibly curious. "Who is it?"
You'll see him in a few days.
Lan Hua felt a tickle in her heart, but since the old lady didn't say anything, she immediately turned to look at Shu Yu.
But Shu Yu's mouth was even tighter than the old lady's, so naturally she wouldn't tell her.
Orchid was extremely disappointed. Just as she was about to try again, she saw a figure get off a donkey cart.
Lan Hua was stunned. "Third Aunt?"
Liang strode up the steps and into the shop. She was surprised to see Lan Hua, then nodded perfunctorily, "Oh, it's Lan Hua. You've come to the county town too."
He then looked behind the counter and asked, "Is Ayu here?"
The old lady thought to herself, "Those two troublesome women, the eldest son's wife and the third son's wife, either don't come at all, or they both come together. They're really a nuisance."
"Third son's wife, what brings you here?"
When Liang saw Shu Yu, she hurriedly said, "Shu Yu, you have to help me, I don't have enough money."
Shu Yu looked up. "What, you don't have enough money?"
"I don't have enough money to buy a house," Liang said with a bitter face. "Could you lend me another fifty taels of silver? I only need fifty taels."
Lan Hua was shocked. Her third aunt was so brave to lend fifty taels of silver.
Shu Yu was puzzled. "Didn't Uncle say before that it was enough?" He even said it was more than enough.
Surely the housing prices in the south of the city couldn't have gone up in such a short time?
The old lady wouldn't let Shu Yu borrow any more money. "Third son's wife, you come here and ask A Yu for money. Does the third son know about this?"
