Su Ruyi nodded.
The meal was a little awkward, but the food was still delicious.
The crabs are very plump, with lots of roe and fat.
Shen Heping ordered eight dishes, plus a braised carp.
He served the siblings food several times, and even used a strange pair of tongs to disassemble the crab's claws, piling them all in front of Su Ruyi: "Crab roe is cold in nature, so you should eat more crab meat!"
Su Tong and Ji Xuchang chatted casually about reading topics that interested them.
Su Ruyi didn't say much and just kept eating.
He listened and ate at the same time, nodding perfunctorily from time to time.
Shen Heping didn't talk much, nor did he eat. He just served Su Ruyi food, and his eyes kept sweeping over her face.
Finally, this somewhat unpleasant meal was over.
Looking at the group still performing, Su Ruyi asked Su Tong directly, "Fourth Brother, what exactly is going on?"
Su Tong blushed and looked at Ji Xuchang: "Look—I told you, don't do this—Ruyi is very smart, she will definitely see through it."

Su Ruyi frowned and looked at Su Tong: "What do you mean?"
Su Tong scratched his head and said, "Heping can marry you, then you won't have to go to the countryside."
"Are you kidding me?!"
Su Ruyi stood up abruptly, her pretty face flushed red. "Fourth Brother, I already said, I'm definitely going to the countryside!"
“Life in the countryside is tough. For a young girl like you, it’s tough. You’ll have to go through a lot,” Shen Heping said.
Su Ruyi glared at the group.
Su Tong said, "Shen Heping has been interested in you for quite a while and has been asking Ji Xuchang to tell me. But I felt you were too young and I was worried his family wouldn't approve, so I didn't tell you. Now we can't worry about that anymore. He has acquaintances in the neighborhood who can get the letter of introduction and marriage certificate first, and then we can slowly tell his family."
