If I keep putting it off, I'll become an old maid.
Although Master Qiu knew many people, they were all old men, and there were very few who were the same age as his daughter.
After thinking it over and over, he really couldn't think of anyone else besides his own apprentice.
Having cared for monkeys for a while, he had a fairly good understanding of their character.
The monkey's appearance wasn't exactly handsome, but at least it was passable in the eyes of a man like him.
She's just lost weight and can't fill out her clothes, so she looks rather shabby.
If you can gain weight, you definitely won't look too bad.
Moreover, men value character.
Looks are something you can't eat or drink, so what's the use of being good-looking or not?
However, he did not expect that the monkey would bring Fu Hongxing with him.
Monkey treats Fu Hongxing like his own older brother, and he has seen how Fu Hongxing takes care of him.
Back then, the fact that Monkey became his apprentice was thanks to Fu Hongxing's connections and help.
So, Master Qiu only hesitated for a moment before letting it go.
It's good that both sides have elders present, so he can subtly inquire about Monkey's intentions from Fu Hongxing's side.
As an elder, he found it difficult to swallow his pride and ask the person involved if they had taken a liking to his daughter.
Thinking of this, I unconsciously became much more enthusiastic in my attitude towards Fu Hongxing.
This made Fu Hongxing feel flattered, after all, when he asked Master Qiu for help, Master Qiu looked very unhappy.
It seems that the monkey actually holds some weight in Master Qiu's heart.
However, when a plump, fair-skinned girl walked in from outside at noon and called out "Dad" to Master Qiu, Fu Hongxing's expression changed.
Fu Hongxing's gaze as he looked at the monkey was somewhat strange.
Who would have thought that this monkey could be chosen as a son-in-law?
The monkey was completely unaware of the turbulent undercurrents, and just happily helped Master Qiu with this and that.
Qiu Sixing was startled when he entered the house and saw two men sitting inside.
Although she works in a textile factory, there are more women in the factory.
Moreover, the presence of two unfamiliar men in her home made her feel somewhat uneasy.
Her father had told her several times that he wanted her to get married soon.
However, she rarely encountered single men at the textile factory.
Another reason is that she feels quite content living alone.
Moreover, she wasn't sure if she could find a man as good as her father.
So she kept hesitating and just going through the motions with her father.
She consistently avoided actively addressing her father's offer to introduce her to potential partners, resorting to roundabout methods to evade the issue.
However, I don't know what her father was thinking this time. Maybe he was annoyed by her perfunctory attitude, because he actually introduced two people at once.
Fu Hongxing was unaware that the young woman had included him in her list of potential partners.
When the four of them sat down to eat, only the monkey was clueless and did nothing, diligently coaxing Master Qiu.
She didn't spare a single glance for Qiu Sixing. Although she was her master's daughter, she was still a young woman.
It's not proper for a grown man to stare at a girl like that.
Master Qiu felt that all his efforts had been wasted.
It's like throwing a flirtatious glance at a blind man; the way he fawned over the monkey almost made him lose his temper. I've never seen such a stupid person.
