Chapter 174 Matchmaker Proposes Marriage
Jiang Cuihua said, "Zhao Hua passed the examination for the scholar degree a few years ago and was ranked first!"
"I also heard that Zhao Hua's teachers said that Zhao Hua will definitely have no problem passing the imperial examination next August!"
“Maybe I can even get the top spot!”
"Zhao Hua became famous all of a sudden in this area!"
"Naturally, it also attracted many families who wanted to marry their daughters to him!"
"You don't know, there were more than a dozen matchmakers here a while ago!"
"The threshold of Zhao Hua's house is almost broken!"
"And even the prominent families in the town and the county want to marry their daughters to Zhao Hua!"
"Of course, Zhao Hua is a good kid! He didn't betray us."
"He turned all those people down!"
"He said he already has a fiancée and won't marry anyone else!"
"But even so, it didn't stop the matchmakers from coming to my house!"
"Later, Qianrou disappeared!"
Jiang Cuihua took a sip of water and continued.
"These families who wanted to marry off their daughters heard about this and knew that Zhao Hua now had no fiancée!"
"Wouldn't it be even more urgent to marry my daughter to him?"
"Just think about it, the village chief's daughter is missing, and no one knows whether she is alive or dead. The whole family is so worried!"
"And as Qianrou's fiancé's family, they have visitors coming and going every day!"
"You can always book another one, a better wedding!"
"Tell me, how can the village chief not be angry?"
"If it were me, I would definitely take a stick and go to the Zhao family to make a scene!"
"Although Zhao Hua and Qian Rou didn't get married, they were just engaged!"
"If Qian Rou is gone, Zhao Hua doesn't need to mourn for her!"
"But it still makes people feel chilled to some extent!"
Liu Shiqi rolled his eyes and gently stroked his chin.
[It seems that Sister Qianrou’s disappearance is most likely related to these families who want to marry off their daughters! 】
[They want to marry their daughter to Zhao Hua!] It is natural to eliminate Zhao Hua’s fiancée...】
Liu Changying frowned and suddenly asked Jiang Cuihua.
"Then do you know which families want to marry their daughters to Zhao Hua?"
[Yes, it would be best if you have some power!] 】
[After all, ordinary people don’t have such courage. 】
Jiang Cuihua rolled her eyes and thought carefully for a while.
He mentioned several families in a row.
“That’s all I remember!”
Liu Changying nodded.
Zhuang Yan quietly went out, called Hongri and Xianle over, and gave them a few instructions.
The two nodded and walked out.
About an hour later, the two came back.
Then a list was handed over.
The list includes all the families who have come to Zhao Hua's house to propose marriage.
Zhuang Yan looked at the list carefully.
Suddenly, a person's name made him pause.
Liu Shiqi just happened to walk over and asked.
"Brother Zhuang, what are you looking at?"
Zhuang Yan did not hide it and directly handed the note to Liu Shiqi and said.
"Shi Qi, take a look!"
"The above is the list of families that I asked Hongri and the others to check, which was the list of families that had proposed marriage to Zhao Hua's family before!"
Liu Shiqi quickly took it, looked at it carefully, and was also attracted by a name.
She said with some uncertainty.
"Liu Shiqiao?"
"She actually also has a crush on Zhao Hua?"
"this!"
"How is this possible?"
Zhuang Yan suddenly thought of something and said to her.
"Shi Qi, do you still remember when the exam results were announced a few years ago? Liu Shiqiao was there!"
"We thought she was waiting for her cousin's results!"
"But now it seems that we were wrong!"
"The reason why she stayed there and waited to see the test results was probably because she wanted to choose a husband for herself!"
Liu Shiqi pursed his lips.
"What I mean is that she actually had her eyes on Zhao Hua at that time!"
Zhuang Yan nodded and said, "That's very likely!"
"After all, Zhao Hua looked at the top of the list!"
"He's also very handsome!"
As he said this, he felt a chill. I really want to wipe my mouth.
"Besides, we found out that Liu Shiqiao was already disfigured! So there was no way she could find a good family!"
"Although Zhao Hua has passed the imperial examination, he is still an ordinary citizen after all!"
"As the daughter of a fifth-rank official, it is reasonable for Liu Shiqiao to marry Zhao Hua!"
"Even if her face is disfigured, Zhao Hua is still marrying above her station."
Liu Shiqi understood what he meant.
She pondered, [It has been more than ten days. If Liu Shiqiao really kidnapped Sister Qianrou in order to marry Zhao Hua! 】
[I don’t know whether Sister Qianrou is still alive. 】
[No, I have to go to Liu Mansion quickly to take a look! 】
[Maybe, I can save Sister Qianrou’s life! 】
She thought about it, said something to Zhuang Yan, and quickly returned to her room.
Zhuang Yan looked at her back as she hurriedly left and quickly followed her.
When he reached her door, he stopped.
He wondered if Shi Qi was planning to leave quietly and go to Liu's house in the county town.
Then he must go with her.
Suddenly, his eyes widened and he rushed to Shi Qi's room.
Then I saw Liu Shiqi standing in the middle of the room with his eyes closed.
Without even thinking twice, he rushed over and hugged Liu Shiqi.
Then, the two of them disappeared from the spot in an instant.
Old man Zhong was passing by and happened to see this scene.
He quickly closed the door and acted as if nothing had happened. Sitting at Liu Shiqi's door, repairing the axe...
Zhuang Yan and Liu Shiqi entered the space house together.
Liu Shiqi raised her face speechlessly and looked at Zhuang Yan who was hugging her tightly.
"Brother Zhuang, what are you doing? You just scared me!"
Zhuang Yan was a little embarrassed, but he still held Liu Shiqi with his arms and didn't want to let go.
He said, "Ah, I think I was tripped by the door just now!"
“That’s why…”
"Sister Shi Qi, I'm sorry!"
At this time, Liu Shiqi's face and Zhuang Yan's face were very close.
Liu Shiqi could feel Zhuang Yan's breathing.
Especially so close, Liu Shiqi was looking at the beautiful face so close to him.
She felt a little dizzy.
[No, why is Brother Zhuang getting more and more handsome? 】
She looked carefully into Zhuang Yan's eyes.
[Hey, why does it seem like there is golden light in Brother Zhuang’s eyes! 】
[So beautiful!] 】
Liu Shiqi couldn't help swallowing.
Zhuang Yan felt very happy when he heard her voice.
I thought, Shi Qi still likes him. Even if it's not a romantic relationship, it's okay if you like his appearance.
He was confident that Shi Qi would like him more and more little by little...
Zhuang Yan thought about it and couldn't help but blink at Liu Shiqi.
Liu Shiqi's heart trembled. My face turned red unconsciously.
She quickly moved and said.
"Brother Zhuang, can you let me go first!"
Zhuang Yan pretended to react and gently let go of his hand.
She said sheepishly, "Oh, sorry!"
He changed the subject and asked, "Shi Qi, are you planning to go through the Black Gate to find Liu Shiqiao..."
