Chapter 502 What do you want to do?

Guanling Village.

In front of the Yan family’s mud brick house.

Facing his father's question, Yan Qiu answered without hesitation: "Dad, I do."

In fact, she had a pretty good childhood. Her mother hadn't had any accidents, her father was in very good health, and the land had been distributed to each household in the village. She lived a very promising life.

Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. After only two short years, my mother was paralyzed in bed due to an accident, and then the family changed completely.

As the eldest daughter in the family, she had to learn how to cook, wash clothes, grow vegetables, and take care of her paralyzed mother and younger brothers and sisters from that time on.

At such a young age, he has endless things to do all day long, and he doesn't have enough food or clothes to eat. He lives even worse than a maid in ancient times. His life is really hard.

She finally managed to get through it, but her father, the pillar of the family, fell ill again. As the eldest sister, she had to step up and shoulder the burden of the family in place of her father.

It’s really hard to describe how life is these days.

And now, there is such a good opportunity in front of her. As long as she can marry into the Naye Deng family, all the sufferings will end. Not only will she be able to live a good life, but her parents and younger brothers and sisters will also be able to live a good life.

How could she not accept such an opportunity?

If the other party was really an inhuman drug addict, she might still hesitate, but the matchmaker in front of her said that the other party had only been taking drugs for two months and had been drug-free for more than two years, so he would not take drugs again in the future.

She has such a good family background. If it weren't for her bad reputation due to drug abuse, it would be unlikely for her to marry into such a family with her conditions.

Yan Qiu could see this clearly.

"If you're willing to marry, that's easy!"

Hearing Yan Qiu's answer, Deng Shirong smiled and replied, then looked at Yan's father and said, "Cousin, then I will arrange for them to get acquainted tomorrow, is that okay?"

This was something he had been longing for. Father Yan immediately said, "No problem. I'll follow your arrangements, cousin."

Next, the two parties agreed on the time and place, and Deng Shirong said goodbye and left.

And those villagers who came to watch the fun couldn't help but congratulate the Yan father and daughter.

Although the marriage has not yet been finalized, Qiumei does have the opportunity to marry into the famous Naye Deng family, so everyone will naturally say nice things about her.

…

The next morning.

Deng Shirong brought Deng Changshou and his wife and Guai Maqi to a small restaurant in Dabawei, which was the place for the blind date agreed with the Yan family yesterday.

They agreed to meet here at 11 a.m., and it was only 10:40 now, so they arrived 20 minutes early.

In addition to the kitchen, this small restaurant has two rooms. One of them is smaller and only has one table, so it can be considered a private room. The other room is much larger and can accommodate four tables.

Deng Shirong and others naturally booked this small private room so that it would be convenient for them to talk.

While waiting for the girl to arrive, Deng Shirong said to Guai Maqi, "Ah Qi, I've already told you about the girl's situation. When you meet her later, if you are satisfied, then the marriage is settled. You have to live a good life with her and don't look down on her family, okay?"

"I understand, Jiu Zu. If I am satisfied, I will definitely live a good life with her."

When Guai Maqi answered, he looked quite excited, completely different from his lonely look when he was sitting by the river before.

The reason for such a big change is that the one who acted as a matchmaker for him was the Ninth Ancestor. As long as this news spreads, the people in the clan will accept him again and will no longer stay away from him because of his identity as a white powder boy. This is extremely important to him.

Humans are social animals and crave recognition from others.

Now Guai Maqi is eager to gain recognition from his tribesmen.

Deng Changshou and his wife also saw the changes in their eldest son and were very happy. They felt that asking Jiugong to be a matchmaker for their son was a right move.

More than ten minutes after Deng Shirong and others arrived at the restaurant, the woman's group also arrived.

This time, there were three people from the woman's side. In addition to the blind date heroine Yan Qiu, the other two were Yan's father and Yan Qiu's younger brother Yan Yong.

Originally, Father Yan was in poor health and was not suitable to go out.

But this time his daughter's blind date was a serious matter, and Yan's father was worried, so he accompanied his daughter in person.

Today, the father and his two sons were all dressed up and put on their best clothes without patches.

When the two parties met, Deng Shirong, as the matchmaker, naturally introduced both parties one by one, and then they began to sit down.

At the small restaurant, everything was ready and they started serving the food once everyone arrived.

Boiled chicken, boiled pork tripe, fried duck with shredded ginger, sweet and sour pork, steamed spare ribs, stir-fried beans with minced meat, mountain water tofu, stir-fried vegetables and a sauerkraut and mudworm soup.

There are eight dishes and one soup, and the portions are very generous. This meal is already quite sumptuous.

It had been a long time since the Yan family, father and son, had eaten such a sumptuous feast. Seeing so many dishes, it was no exaggeration to say that their saliva was almost flowing.

After all, with their family's living standard, let alone on ordinary days, even during the Chinese New Year, what they eat is not half as good as what they eat here.

During the meal, the atmosphere was naturally not dull with Deng Shirong around.

Not to mention anything else, just talking about Naye Film and Television City, the topics that arise from it can take up a whole day.

The elders were chatting, and the male and female protagonists, Guai Maqi and A Qiumei, were both looking at each other stealthily.

When the meal was almost over, Deng Shirong naturally did not forget the main business. He called Guai Maqi outside and asked directly: "Ah Qi, now that you have seen the person, how do you feel?"

Guai Maqi knows his own situation. If he had not taken drugs and ruined his reputation, he would indeed have been able to find a better partner than Aqiumei. But his reputation is really not good now. Matchmakers introduced him to several candidates before, but the candidates rejected him directly without even wanting to meet him.

Now his parents asked Jiuzu to personally find a partner for him. Since the other party has caught Jiuzu's eye, it proves that in Jiuzu's eyes, the other party is worthy of him. He had just secretly sized up the other party and she is indeed good-looking.

Since the other party has already been recognized by the Ninth Ancestor, he naturally would not refuse.

Thinking of this, Guai Ma Qi nodded and said, "Nine Ancestors, I think it's okay."

Deng Shirong said, "Ah Qi, marriage is a lifelong thing. You have to think it over carefully and don't be influenced by me. After all, it's you who is marrying a wife, not me. If you are not satisfied, we can find another one, but once you make a choice, you have to live with her well, understand?"

Guai Ma Qi was somewhat moved when he heard this. As the Ninth Ancestor, she could tell him such a sincere truth, which proved that his drug abuse was truly over in the eyes of the Ninth Ancestor. He immediately expressed his position: "Ninth Ancestor, I have really thought it through. Let's go with her!"

Deng Shirong nodded and said, "Okay, go in and call your parents out, I'll talk to them."

Guai Maqi responded and walked into the box.

Soon, Deng Changshou and his wife came out of the box.

Deng Shirong didn't waste any words and said directly: "I have just asked Ah Qi, he is quite satisfied with this Ah Qiu sister, what do you two think?"

Deng Changshou said: "I have no opinion, as long as he is satisfied."

Liu Ying nodded and said, "Nine Ancestors, this Qiumei looks like a hardworking and capable girl. I am quite satisfied with her."

Deng Shirong smiled and said, "Okay, since your family of three are all satisfied, then this matter will be easy to handle. I will call them out to have a chat and try to set a date for the housekeeping today.

You can also take this opportunity to prepare the red envelopes so that you can give them to others later."

"Okay, Jiuzu."

Next, the three of them walked into the box together, and then Deng Shirong called out the three members of the Yan family.

Without beating around the bush, Deng Shirong went straight to the point and said, "A cousin, I have just asked the opinions of the three of them. They are all quite satisfied with Qiumei. If you have no objection, then we can discuss the day for her to look after the house."

Father Yan was delighted to hear this. After more than an hour of contact and chatting, he also realized that his future son-in-law was indeed very different from those drug addicts who had been taking drugs for many years. If the matchmaker had not told him actively, he really could not tell that his future son-in-law had ever taken drugs.

Since the other party is a normal person, not bad looking, and has a good family background, he has no complaints about his daughter marrying into such a family.

Hearing this, Yan Qiu was also very happy. With a family background like hers, she had no hope of marrying into a good family. The most likely possibility was that she would marry into an equally poor family, and then move to another place and continue to live a hard life. This was her fate.

As a result, what she never expected was that she actually had the opportunity to marry into the famous Naye Deng family and become a member of it.

This was truly a blessing from heaven, and the ancestral graves were filled with joy! Her younger brother Yan Yong was also filled with joy. As long as his sister got married, their family's predicament would be immediately improved, and they would no longer have to live such a hard life.

Father Yan directly stated: "My cousin, our family has no objection. It is entirely up to you to decide."

Deng Shirong was not surprised to hear this. Yesterday, before the man and woman met, the father and daughter of the Yan family had actually expressed their stance in front of him. In fact, today's meeting was not the woman choosing the man, but the man choosing the woman. As long as the man agrees, the woman will definitely have no objection.

However, it is enough for Deng Shirong to know about this matter, and he still has to ask the questions that need to be asked.

"Okay, I told you my worth before, it's 100,000 yuan, and the rest are unimportant. Then let's arrange for him to come visit your house the day after tomorrow, is that ok?" Deng Shirong asked with a smile.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Father Yan nodded excitedly and said, "No problem, then the day after tomorrow."

…

The news that the clan leader was matchmaking for Guai Maqi quickly spread throughout the clan.

Guai Maqi was not wrong in his guess. After the news spread, the tribesmen's attitude towards him changed.

This is like an official who is sitting on the bench. A leader comes to inspect. During the inspection, the leader mentions the official's name intentionally or unintentionally, and calls him affectionately. When the inspection is over, guess what will happen? Now, the head of the Ye Deng clan is like the inspecting leader in the hearts of the clan members, and Guai Ma Qi is the official who is sitting on the bench.

Having the tribe leader help to act as a matchmaker was equivalent to sending a signal to the tribe members. Naturally, everyone would no longer discriminate against Guai Maqi. He also integrated into his previous circle of friends again and lived a much more comfortable life than before.

Soon, the day arrived when the girl came to visit the house.

In order to show respect, the matchmaker Deng Shirong drove a motorcycle to Guanling Village, Daba Town, and led the woman's party to visit the man's home.

A total of six people came from the girl's family, driving two motorcycles.

Originally, with the Yan family’s financial situation, they didn’t even have a bicycle, let alone a motorcycle, and they had to walk everywhere.

However, when people knew that the Yan family was going to Shuangwang Naye Deng's house to look after the family, someone took the initiative to lend them a motorcycle for them to use at will, without Yan's father having to ask.

After all, in Bobai Territory, reaching the stage of visiting the house means that the price has been negotiated, and if nothing unexpected happens, the marriage is done.

In this way, the Yan family is no longer the impoverished Yan family of the past. Putting aside other things, as long as the 100,000 yuan salary given by the man's family is in place, the Yan family's economic strength will be ranked among the best in the village.

What's more, with such an awesome son-in-law to help, even if the Yan family cannot become the richest family in the village, they will definitely not be far behind.

Therefore, the villagers with vision knew how to invest in advance and build closer relations with the Yan family.

Among the six people who came to visit their home were the heroine Yan Qiu, her younger brother and sister, and the other three were their relatives.

Daba Town and Shuangwang Town are indeed quite far apart. The woman’s group of six had never been to Shuangwang before.

Of course, although they had never been to Shuangwang, they were all familiar with it. They knew that Shuangwang had a very famous 60-meter avenue, as well as the Naye Deng family’s villa complex and the hugely invested Naye Film and Television City.

When they passed Shuangwang Market, a relative of the Yan family could not help but ask, "Cousin, I heard that your Deng family funded the construction of a 60-meter avenue. I wonder where this 60-meter avenue is?"

Deng Shirong smiled and said, "You can see it when you reach the top of this mountain."

Upon hearing this, the woman and her group all showed expectant expressions, and the one driving the motorcycle couldn't help but step on the accelerator and rush to the top of the mountain.

The speed of the motorcycles was quite fast. Soon the three motorcycles reached the top of Mangtouling Mountain. Looking down, they saw the 60-meter avenue that was as beautiful as a picture scroll.

It is autumn now, and the leaves of the ginkgo trees have begun to turn golden. The scenery is truly breathtaking at first glance. No one who sees this kind of beauty for the first time will remain unmoved. Even though the woman and her group were mentally prepared, they were still shocked by the beauty before them.

“So beautiful!”

“No wonder people who have come to see this 60-meter avenue are full of praise. I thought they were exaggerating before, but now that I have seen it with my own eyes, I realize that they are not exaggerating at all. This 60-meter avenue is really so beautiful that it is beyond description.”

"This is the most beautiful road I have ever seen in my life. It is more beautiful than the roads I have seen on TV."

“…”

After the motorcycle went downhill, the view became wider and the villa complex of the Ye Deng family appeared in the sight of the women and their group, which undoubtedly opened their eyes again.

It was not until they arrived at Guamaqi's villa that the woman and her group came to their senses.

As the name suggests, "house-viewing" means letting the woman take a look at the man's house, or more precisely, to see the financial strength of the man's family.

As a member of the Naye Deng family, the economic strength of the Guamaqi family is naturally needless to say. The decoration of the villa and the various furniture and appliances made the woman's party very satisfied. It is definitely a high marriage for Yan Qiu to marry into such a family.

While Guamaqi's family was busy guarding the house and entertaining guests, Deng Yunheng, who was far away in Guangzhou, received a love knot made by Feng Yingying herself.

Looking at this exquisite black and yellow love knot, Deng Yunheng stretched out his left hand with a smile on his face, indicating that the other party should put it on him personally.

Feng Yingying glanced at him, and finally obeyed his wishes and put the heart-shaped knot on his wrist with her own hands.

Deng Yunheng kept staring at the knot on his wrist, looking like he couldn't let it go. After a while, he looked at Feng Yingying and said, "Thank you. This is the most satisfying gift I have ever received since I was a child. It just so happens that I have a gift for you as well."

Feng Yingying asked in surprise: "What gift?"

Deng Yunheng took out a beautiful red and yellow love knot from his pocket and said with a smile, "Look, isn't it a coincidence?"

What a coincidence! Feng Yingying couldn't help but roll her eyes at him.

Deng Yunheng smiled and said, "Come, give me your hand and I'll put it on for you."

Feng Yingying did not refuse his offer and extended her soft right hand to him.

Deng Yunheng put the knot on her wrist, then put his wrist together with hers and said with satisfaction, "They match so well!"

Feng Yingying looked at the two love knots. The color matching was really harmonious. She bit her lip and asked, "Did you weave this yourself?"

Deng Yunheng nodded and said, "I made it up myself. You should know the meaning of this knot, right?"

Feng Yingying looked at his fiery eyes, her heart beating faster as she asked, "What...what do you want to do?"

Deng Yunheng looked at her affectionately and said gently, "Yingying, will you be my girlfriend?"

Feng Yingying had anticipated this day from the day she agreed to give him the knot. She looked at his affectionate eyes, took a few deep breaths, and then slowly nodded and said, "Okay!"

Deng Yunheng was overjoyed when he heard this. He reached out and took her into his arms, whispering in her ear, "I will treat you well for the rest of my life."

Feng Yingying was suddenly hugged, and subconsciously wanted to reach out and push him away, but after hearing his assurance in her ear, her originally stiff body slowly softened, and the hand that had originally pushed him turned into hugging him, and she responded softly: "I believe you."

Two people who had just known each other for three months officially confirmed their relationship.
