Chapter 419 Marry me, are you serious?
Lin Huixin stared blankly at Chen Boyu.
"Master Chen, I want to ask you, is your engagement with me genuine?"
Don't worry, if you don't want to, I definitely won't force you. I'll talk to my mother and Grandma Guizhi.
Chen Boyu looked around and, finding no one, nodded seriously.
"Of course it's true."
Huixin, rest assured, I love you and my intention to marry you is sincere.
I didn't agree before because I lacked confidence and was afraid of wronging you.
Now I understand. I can't bear to see you marry another man. Instead of worrying every day about whether you'll be mistreated, I should just love you well myself.
Lin Huixin's face flushed red instantly.
"You... as long as you're sincere, that's enough. My mother said the engagement gifts don't need to be too expensive; our family doesn't care about these things. As long as you treat me well in the future, that's enough."
Chen Boyu chuckled softly.
"Don't worry, everything is ready. Today, Uncle Chunping and Aunt Yuzhen accompanied me to Pingchuan County. We will make sure you have everything you need and won't let you suffer any injustice."
Oh, and you can take this.
As Chen Boyu spoke, he took out ten taels of silver and handed it to Lin Huixin.
"This silver is for you to keep as a dowry. Aunt Lin said that she would keep the same amount as the dowry I give."
I don't want you to empty our savings because of your wedding. Your older brother isn't even married yet; the expenses are still to come.
Lin Huixin looked at the silver Chen Boyu handed her, but she didn't take it. She shook her head.
"I can't accept this money, otherwise my mother will scold me when I get back. Don't worry, my mother has already prepared the money."
Brother Chen, I'll be waiting for you at home tomorrow...................
After saying that, Lin Huixin ran away with a shy expression.
Chen Boyu watched Lin Huixin's retreating figure with doting eyes until she completely disappeared before reluctantly turning away.
"Lan... Sister Lanfang, what are you doing here? When did you arrive?"
Chen Boyu turned around and stared blankly at Qiao Lanfang standing behind him.
Qiao Lanfang smiled.
"Just now, when Huixin looked at you shyly, tsk tsk tsk! To be honest, this Huixin girl is really pretty."
Actually, I've known for a long time that you have designs on that girl, but you were always so hesitant and wouldn't agree before.
You actually rejected that young girl because of your age? Have you forgotten how much younger I am than your Brother Fan?
Do you see anything wrong with us being together?
Marriage is a matter between two people. As long as you two are together in harmony, why think so much?
Why think so much when you only live for a few decades?
Get married early and consummate your marriage early; have children early and become a father early.
You're lucky to have such a good girl; we're practically the only two people left alive in this little fishing village.
I'm already married, and now you're married too. This is a joyous occasion.
"We're like siblings. If you need any help with this marriage, just let me know. Whether it's money or effort, I'll do my best."
Chen Boyu was stunned by Qiao Lanfang's frenzied attack. He came to his senses and looked at Qiao Lanfang.
"Sister Lanfang, I was just about to come find you. You are my only living relative. I want you and Brother Fan to come with me to the Lin family."
Qiao Lanfang nodded.
