After hearing her daughter's introduction, Liu Jingzhi felt that the He family was quite good. She even thought that it would be a bit of a step up for her daughter to marry into the He family, given her daughter's physical disability.
She also hopes her daughter can get married and have someone to cherish her, so she won't end up alone. He Zhenhua's current situation is undoubtedly very good. However, she still needs to consider other options before making a decision.
Liu Jingzhi said, "It seems you've also taken a liking to someone. Then I'll have to meet my future son-in-law properly and give him a good evaluation. I also need to thank your friend."
Seeing her mother's attitude, Yan Qingya knew that her mother had agreed and said, "Mom, let me talk to Brother He first, and then arrange for you to meet. Actually, they live at the very end of this alley."
As for what you mentioned, I'll talk to Brother He and the others about it. I think they'll help us.
He Zhenhua knew that his future mother-in-law had arrived and would be staying at Yan Qingya's place. Although the two families lived only a few houses apart, he didn't want to go there rashly.
He Yuhan didn't have as many concerns as her older brother. Knowing that Yan Qingya's mother had arrived, she brought some fruit and pastries to Yan Qingya's place after dinner, also to prepare for her older brother's arrival.
With her parents gone, she, as the younger sister, naturally had to do her best to help with her older brother's marriage.
Yan Qingya knew He Yuhan had arrived as soon as she heard the voices in the yard, and said, "Mom, my good friend He Yuhan, whom I told you about, has arrived."
As she spoke, she opened the door and went out of the house.
He Yuhan, carrying her things, said, "Qingya, Auntie should have arrived by now. I came to check on her."
Liu Jingzhi followed her daughter outside and was utterly astonished by He Yuhan's beauty. She hadn't expected her daughter's best friend, her future sister-in-law, to be so gorgeous. She guessed her future son-in-law would be just as good-looking.
Liu Jingzhi said, "You must be Yuhan, whom Qingya often talks about. Please come in and sit down. I was planning to visit you tomorrow. Thank you so much for taking care of my Qingya these past few days."
He Yuhan said, "Auntie, you're too kind. It's only natural for friends to look after each other."
He Yuhan, carrying the things, said, "Qingya, these are fruits for Auntie."
Yan Qingya took the things and said, "Come inside quickly, it's a good opportunity to have a good chat with my mother."
The three of them went inside, and Yan Qingya washed fruit and made tea.
He Yuhan said, "Auntie, please stay a few more days this time and keep Qingya company."
Liu Jingzhi said, "Qingya left her hometown all alone. If it weren't for her uncle and having you as a good friend, I really wouldn't be at ease. I'm sure Qingya has told you that my daughter has a really hard life, and God has been too cruel to her."
After saying this, Liu Jingzhi sadly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
Yan Qingya put her arm around her mother's shoulder and said, "Mom, everything will be alright."
He Yuhan said, "Auntie, none of this is Qingya's fault. Although she was rejected by that family before, Qingya deserves better."
To be honest, Auntie, my older brother likes Qingya and wants her to be my sister-in-law. He's also been hurt before, and he understands Qingya's pain. He will cherish her and hopes Auntie and Uncle will approve of their marriage.
Liu Jingzhi said, "Qingya also told me about her and your older brother. To be honest, after Qingya was jilted at the altar, I thought she would be alone for the rest of her life. As her mother, my heart was breaking."
But no matter what, I hope my daughter can find happiness and have someone who cherishes and cares for her. I never imagined she would come to Qianyuan County and meet you and your older brother. Perhaps this is fate; you are destined to be together.
"Well then, there's no time like the present. Call your elder brother over; I'd like to meet him too."
Liu Jingzhi was very worried about things at home and didn't want to waste any time. She thought that if her daughter really was going to marry He Zhenhua, then He Zhenhua would be their Yan family's son-in-law, and she could discuss family matters with him. After all, this matter also involved the Han family. Since they were all relatives, the Han family wouldn't abandon them.
She felt this was the best solution; at least they wouldn't feel guilty. Besides, her daughter had finally gotten a chance to be happy, and she didn't want to ruin it.
Upon hearing this, He Yuhan happily said, "Okay, Auntie, I'll go and call my older brother over right away."
Upon hearing this, Yan Qingya stood up and said, "I'll go with you."
Liu Jingzhi knew her daughter was worried and wanted to give He Zhenhua some instructions beforehand. She shook her head and sighed inwardly, "Girls really are more outgoing."
He Yuhan and Yan Qingya went back to the Han family together.
As soon as He Yuhan entered the courtyard, she saw her older brother pacing back and forth, clearly worried and waiting for news of her.
He Yuhan smiled and said, "Big brother, you were waiting for me, weren't you? I have good news for you. Your future mother-in-law wants to meet you."
Upon hearing this, He Zhenhua asked somewhat nervously, "Ah, you want to see me now?"
Yan Qingya also walked into the courtyard and said, "Brother He, my mother already knows about us and said she wants to see you today. Don't worry, my mother is a very good person, she won't object to us being together."
He Zhenhua exclaimed in surprise, "Really? Your mom has agreed?"
Yan Qingya nodded and said, "I need to see you to feel at ease."
He Yuhan said, "Big brother, didn't you prepare new clothes? Go and change. I'll prepare some gifts for you. You and Sister Qingya will go see Aunt Liu in a little while."
Upon hearing this, He Zhenhua quickly ran back to his room to change his clothes.
He Yuhan went to the storage room to prepare a gift.
Yan Qingya said, "Yuhan, you don't need to be so polite. No need for any gifts. Brother He can just go there in person."
He Yuhan said, "That won't do. It represents my brother's respect for you and your family, and it's also a matter of courtesy."
He Zhenhua changed his clothes as quickly as possible. He Yuhan also prepared many gifts.
He Yuhan also cheered on her older brother. Others also encouraged He Zhenhua.
Gu Qishen patted He Zhenhua on the shoulder and said, "Keep it up, and try to end your bachelor life as soon as possible."
Han Yixian also laughed and said, "Such a spirited young man, your future mother-in-law will definitely like him when she sees him."
Dressed smartly and looking exceptionally handsome, He Zhenhua carried the gifts prepared by his sister and followed Yan Qingya to meet her future mother-in-law.
Since they were only a few houses apart, He Zhenhua quickly followed Yan Qingya to the courtyard where Yan Qingya lived.
Yan Qingya turned around and looked at He Zhenhua, who seemed a little nervous, and said with a smile, "Brother He, don't be so nervous. My mother is fine, you don't need to worry."
After saying that, she pushed open the door and said, "Mom, Brother He is here."
Liu Jingzhi stood in the room and her eyes lit up when she saw the young, handsome man enter. He was indeed as she had imagined—a handsome young man. His looks were truly impeccable, a perfect match for her daughter.
He Zhenhua, carrying his things, walked a few steps to Liu Jingzhi and said, "Auntie, I am He Zhenhua. I apologize for bothering you today."
