In Zhong Yufeng's opinion, two bolts of cloth were not worth much money at all.
Especially since Qi Mingyu's parents both live in the village, the material doesn't need to be very good at all.
One bolt of fine cotton cloth per person is already quite remarkable.
By giving her the cloth, she not only helped Qi Mingyu but also won the favor of his parents, achieving two goals at once.
Thinking this, she said, "Brother is right. We don't even need to go to the cloth shop. My mother brought back a lot of cloth before the New Year, and there's some in the warehouse now."
It's still cold, and there's still some cotton left in the warehouse. I'll have someone bring it all over in a bit.
The warehouse that Zhong Yufeng mentioned was the warehouse of the second branch, and Zhong Wenming knew that there were many good things inside.
Seeing that she was about to take it, he quickly gave Qi Mingyu a wink.
These two have unknowingly become accomplices in each other's evil deeds.
Qi Mingyu, having received the hint, quickly called out to the person, "Miss Yu Feng, please wait a moment!"
Zhong Yufeng turned around, somewhat puzzled, and heard Qi Mingyu say:
"Miss Yu Feng, I appreciate your kindness."
The fabric that makes it into your warehouse must be of decent quality.
Well, we're not related, so how could I possibly accept your gift?
If outsiders find out, who knows what kind of rumors will spread about it.
I really appreciate your kindness.
I will use my own hands to buy my parents what they need.
Keep everything in your storeroom!
At this moment, Zhong Wenming jumped out and said, "Brother Mingyu, that's not how you put it."
It was Xiaofeng's second branch's storeroom. They had too much cloth and couldn't use it all, so they gave me two bolts.
Seeing your family's hardship, I gave this to you.
If you feel guilty about accepting this, then when you pass the imperial examination and become a scholar, just remember to help out the Zhong family.
Another point is that the people you'll be associating with will be of a higher social standing.
Xiao Feng is already fourteen years old, and she will be of marriageable age in a few months.
Her family was extremely worried about her marriage prospects.
Could you please help me find a reliable young man and introduce him to her?
He paused deliberately, then looked at Qi Mingyu, then at Zhong Yufeng, and then back at Qi Mingyu.
“Brother Mingyu, you are only twenty years old and not yet married. Our Xiaofeng is about to come of age and has not yet found a husband.”
Why don't you two become a couple?
Xiao Feng is quite pretty and well-mannered. And you are only five or six years older than her; you're a good young man.
I think you two are a good match, why don't you give it a try?
If you agree, then I'll go talk to the elders.
If they agree, then Mingyu, you can go back and ask your parents and matchmaker to come and propose marriage.
Our Zhong family isn't short-sighted; we don't care about your current difficulties.
As long as you treat Xiaofeng well and have the Zhong family, your in-laws, in your heart, that's enough.
Zhong Yufeng suppressed her shyness and frowned as she looked at Zhong Wenming.
"Brother, this is not polite. How can you do this?"
Although neither I nor Scholar Qi are married, how is this any different from a secret affair?
Zhong Wenming and Qi Mingyu both realized that she didn't mean to refuse, and the former immediately said:
"Xiaofeng, you go ahead and do your work. Your brother will handle this according to the rules and take care of it for you!"
