Chapter 1250 Deciding to Go for a Matchmaking
The old lady was prepared. Seeing that Lan Hua didn't speak, she didn't press the matter. She would go and inform Master Yu later.
But then Lan Hua suddenly raised her head and said, "I, I'll go."
The old lady was somewhat surprised. "You're really going? Although I've never met that young master Yu, judging from what Master Yu said, he certainly doesn't look like a refined scholar."
"Yes, I know." The other person was a blacksmith, and Lan Hua could roughly imagine what he looked like.
In the past, she might have subconsciously rejected it.
But now, she still wants to go see it and give it a try.
In fact, ever since Sister Ayu became the village head, she has had no shortage of people trying to find her a husband.
Two months ago, she also came of age. Putting aside everything else, just that very night, Li brought her the family backgrounds of five or six candidates and asked for her opinion.
After experiencing what happened with Ge Qifei, Lan Hua has become more open-minded about this matter.
Especially now that she works at Yiren Pavilion, she has learned how to dress, do makeup, and style herself from Sister Shuyou, and has even started taking orders on her own, which has increased her wages considerably.
In just a few months, I've saved more money than I did in all those previous years combined.
Having tasted success, Lan Hua began to focus on her career, wanting to earn more money. With a sufficient dowry, she would have the confidence to marry and fear nothing.
But Ms. Li didn't think that way; she had too much free time now.
It was just her and Lu Dasong at home. Da Niu and Zhou Qiao lived on the estate, Er Niu was studying, and Lan Hua was working. Because it was just the two of them, they were worried they wouldn't be able to manage everything, so they rented out several acres of land.
With less to do, she was either thinking about Zhou Qiao's unborn child or trying to arrange a marriage for Lan Hua as soon as possible.
She felt that Shu Yu had only recently become the village head and had just experienced the housewarming banquet, so now was the height of her fame and a good time for them to choose.
Didn't you see so many matchmakers coming to their door? In the past, their family could only find someone like the Ge family, a family that only owned a small tofu shop. If the other party was unhappy, they could just call off the engagement.
Things are different now. Not to mention the villages, even well-off families from towns and counties are coming to our door.
This delighted Li, and she couldn't help but act all high and mighty.
With so many candidates, Li was overwhelmed with choices. She thought this one was good, and that one was also nice, so she would come over from time to time to ask Lan Hua for her opinion.
Lan Hua was still considering it at first, but after listening to Li's implied meaning, she realized that she would only choose families with good conditions, at the very least those with two shops.
Lanhua thought her mother had gone mad. With such good qualities, why would he be interested in her? Was it because Shuyu was a local magistrate? Or did he want something from Shuyu?
What if Sister Yu disagrees? Will the other party still respect her? Her future will only be more difficult.
Since Lan Hua started working at Yi Ren Ge, she has witnessed a lot of things and has come to understand more and more that when two families get married, the most important thing is that they are well-matched in terms of social status.
Therefore, she rejected all of Li's choices, which angered Li so much that he didn't come to see her for half a month.
But yesterday, after Shuyou got married, Li brought up the old issues again, which annoyed Lanhua a lot.
Now that it was the old lady who introduced them, Lanhua trusted her grandmother's judgment even more, so she thought she might as well meet her.
When the old lady heard her agree, she immediately clasped her hands together and said, "Alright, let's set off now."
She seemed a little impatient and pulled Lan Hua to leave.
