Song Wanxian stood there in a daze. Her little girl was only eight years old, why was she thinking of marrying Zhang Xiulin? And Zhang Xiulin was less than ten years old!
"Nanny, Sister Lin, she's very, very good." Song Wanxian didn't say anything. Xiao Jie thought she didn't like Zhang Xiulin, and got a little anxious. He started babble about Zhang Xiulin's various advantages, from her super high learning talent, good looks, to how very good she was to him.
Anyway, in Xiao Jie's description, the girl Zhang Xiulin is perfect.
"Xiaojie, do you like Zhang Xiulin?" Song Wanxian asked.
Song Wanxian asked so bluntly that the blush on Xiao Jie's cheeks deepened a little, and even his pink earlobes turned red. He felt that although he was timid, he could not lie.
He nodded reservedly and shyly, then leaned close to Song Wanxian's ear and whispered, "Xiaojie, I like Sister Lin." After saying that, his beautiful eyes lit up again.
As a child raised by herself, Song Wanxian knows him very well.
Although Xiao Jie is young and timid, he is kind-hearted and never lies. He expresses his emotions clearly and strongly. He expresses what he likes and stays away from what he dislikes.
He is only eight years old, but his childhood experiences have made him more mature than his peers. His beauty and immaturity are just his appearance.
The fact that Xiao Jie dared to express his feelings so directly shows that he really likes Zhang Xiulin.
However, Song Wanxian didn't expect that he would like her so much as to want to marry Zhang Xiulin.
Song Wanxian was a little amused and helpless for a moment, but she did not doubt that the little guy liked Zhang Xiulin.
The little guy is very smart and he is consistent in everything he likes.
When he said he liked Zhang Xiulin, he really liked her. Although he was young, he was precocious and could tell the difference between the love for an older sister and the love between a man and a woman.
"Nurse, please help me propose marriage." Xiao Jie looked at Song Wanxian with pleading eyes.
Song Wanxian was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
Proposing a marriage is of course impossible, and getting married at such a young age is unrealistic.
However, there are some who are engaged at a young age, but they are all from wealthy families with good relationships, or they are engaged as children.
The thought of her going to Zhang Xiulin's house on behalf of the eight-year-old Xiaojie to get engaged to Zhang Xiulin, who was less than ten years old, seemed unlikely.
Zhang Xiulin is less than ten years old. Although she hasn't taken the imperial examination yet, with her talent and ability, her future is definitely limitless.
Not to mention that she would become a juren or jinshi and be promoted to a higher position, even if she passed the examination to become a scholar, she would be an excellent candidate for a wife in Renhe County.
If it was the former "Xiao Jie", there would be a great possibility of getting engaged to Zhang Xiulin, but now they came to the small Renhe County, with only the two of them relying on each other, and the only thing they could show off was an elegant bookstore.
and……
Although she didn't think it was a big deal, in the eyes of outsiders, Xiao Jie was a stutterer with a physical defect. Such a person was definitely not a good candidate for a young husband.
Song Wanxian can propose an engagement, but the hope is really slim.
She wanted to refuse, but looking at Xiao Jie's bright and expectant eyes, she couldn't bring herself to say no.
"Okay, Nanny will help you."
"I'm fine now, thank you, nanny." Xiao Jie smiled, his purple face full of joy.
Song Wanxian showed a doting look on her face. Although she didn't have much contact with Zhang Xiulin, she was satisfied with her. More importantly, Xiaojie liked her.
She thinks Xiaojie is the best, but not everyone thinks so.
If Zhang Xiulin refused, it would mean that the two of them were not destined to be together.
You still have to give it a try, even if the hope is slim.
