Chapter 1499 Zhou Ermei's Marriage
The matter was settled. After lunch, Shu Yu went to visit the tenant farmer and casually mentioned Jiang Kuanyu.
Unfortunately, Jiang Kuanyu was very cautious. Although he seemed quite friendly, chatting and laughing with the tenants, he actually kept his distance and didn't reveal any information.
Shu Yu had no choice but to return to the manor and chat with Xiao Ya'er.
However, the little girl had even less contact with Jiang Kuanyu. Apart from the two days when her grandfather was murdered, Xiaoya had only seen him a few times over the years.
This trip clearly yielded no results regarding Jiang Kuanyu's matter.
It was getting late, so Shu Yu decided to head back.
Zhou Qiao had already packed her bags and was about to leave with them.
Xiao Zaozao was very excited sitting in the carriage. She had taken a nap and was full of sleep, so she kept turning and twisting around without stopping for a moment.
Zhou Qiao almost couldn't hold her back. "It's not like you've never ridden in a carriage before, why are you so excited?"
The old lady used a rag doll to distract Xiaozaozao and laughed, "She's still young, she doesn't even remember riding in a carriage."
"Ahhh..." Xiao Zaozao stretched out her chubby hand to grab it, and Zhou Qiao was pulled forward by her as well.
Shu Yu quickly reached out to help him up and took the troublemaker in her arms.
She's strong, so carrying Xiaozaozao is effortless for her.
Zhou Qiao let out a breath, rubbed her arms, and said with some exhaustion, "This girl is full of energy. Grandma, you'll have to work hard in the days to come."
The old lady waved her hand, "Why would I need to go through all that trouble? There are servants at home who can take turns carrying you for a while, and that'll be enough until you come back tonight. You, once you get back to Shangshi Village, just listen to what your mother-in-law tells you to do. She has her own ideas and doesn't like listening to others. Actually, Lanhua's marriage is almost ready. I've already given her all the instructions, but your mother-in-law is very demanding and always worried about missing this or that."
“I understand. I will listen and observe more. With experience, I will be more confident about my sisters’ marriages.”
Upon hearing her mention the other girls in the Zhou family, the old lady asked with concern, "I remember your second sister is also grown up now, only a year younger than Ayu, right?"
“Yes.” Zhou Qiao smiled wryly. “So this time I’m not going back entirely to help my mother-in-law. I also want to go back and ask my second sister what she thinks.”
Do you have a boyfriend/girlfriend?
Zhou Qiao shook her head. "No, my father came to the village to see me a few days ago and told me that my second aunt wanted to introduce some relative from her maternal side to my second sister. Grandma, you know my second aunt, she's only interested in money. I really don't trust her to handle my second sister's marriage."
But Zhou's mother had already passed away, and the only close female elder in his family was his second aunt.
She really wanted to arrange this marriage.
Zhou Qiao was not happy about it. Her younger sisters were all well-behaved and didn't need to marry into wealthy families. They just needed someone hardworking, caring, and who wouldn't bully them.
Her standards were different from her second aunt's.
The old lady nodded. "Your sister's marriage still needs your attention. Do you have someone in mind?"
Speaking of this, Zhou Qiao pursed her lips, smiled and whispered, "I actually think highly of Ruan Dali and Dazhuang."
She had always lived on the estate, and the only people she knew were the workshop workers and the tenants next door; she didn't know anyone else.
