After the two brothers left, only Grandma Jin, Zhang Ruochu and Zhang Rushan were left in the room.
Seeing Zhang Ruochu's confused look, Zhang Rushan asked, "Don't you like Chen Shu?"
Zhang Ruochu shook his head, "I'm not very familiar with him."
Grandma Jin smiled and said, "You all went to the same school, so you should have been in the same class. Don't you have any impression of me at all?"
"Hmm..." Zhang Ruochu thought for a long time before saying, "He is a quiet man. He is indeed well-educated. I haven't talked to him much."
Zhang Rushan said with a sigh, "Who else have you talked to besides Song Xiaocao?"
"Grandma, Zhang Rushan said I..." Zhang Ruchu pulled Grandma Jin's arm and acted coquettishly.
Zhang Rushan, "..."
Zhou family.
Tang and Zhang arrived at Zhou's house holding palm-leaf fans, and happened to meet a family weaving baskets in the yard.
"Master Zhou, your bamboo weaving skills are getting better and better. Don't make Master Zhu lose his business!"
Tang joked through the fence.
Mr. Zhou was not polite and said with a smile, "Then I'll ask you to promote it for me. Maybe I can also eat this bowl of rice."
"Come in and sit down. The water is boiling. Let me make some tea." Zhang invited them.
Lin also dragged a stool for them.
After the two sisters-in-law came in, they chatted for a while, and then Zhang mentioned Ruchu's marriage intentionally or unintentionally.
"The girl has grown up, and I want to arrange a reliable marriage for her as soon as possible. We women can't make a good decision. From what my nephew said, it would be a good idea to find a scholar for her, who can also help her with her studies in the future."
Lin brought some tea and asked casually, "Do you have any favorites?"
Tang took over the conversation and said, "He and his wife have thought a lot about their children, and they haven't made up their minds yet. Anyway, I think the children in Class A are all pretty good."
Zhang chuckled and said, "It's always right for parents to be more cautious when it comes to important matters in life."
The women talked for a while before Zhang and Tang left.
Zhou Dafu just happened to come out of the shower.
Grandpa Zhou put down the half-finished bamboo basket in his hand and waved at him.
"The Zhang family is choosing a marriage for Niu Niu. They should have set their sights on Xiao Shu. Send a letter tomorrow to ask the Chen family what they think," Grandpa Zhou instructed.
Zhou Dafu was a little confused, "Dad, how did you know that?"
"Go ask your wife what the two sisters-in-law of the Zhang family said just now." said Mr. Zhou.
Zhou Dafu went to Lin to review the situation again, and after careful consideration, he found that it was almost correct.
"Xiaoshu is still studying. Isn't it too early?" asked Lin.
Zhou Dafu said, "Let's get engaged first. It's okay to get married a few years later. Maybe we can hold the Tongsheng Banquet together, and it will be a double happiness."
"Let's not say this for now. Let's see what Baozhu says first. Don't let it get out and ruin your reputation." Lin said worriedly.
Zhou Dafu also nodded.
"Do you want to talk to Xiaoshu first?" Lin said.
Zhou Dafu thought for a moment and said, "I'll go ask."
After saying that, Zhou Dafu stood up and went to the backyard.
Chen Shu sat at the desk, listening to his uncle talking about his marriage.
"Niuniu from the Daniu family is pretty and capable, and she also has a cousin named Zhang Rushan who is a scholar. Although they are cousins, I don't think they are that distant. What do you think?"
Chen Shu was stunned for only a moment, then said, "Brother Rushan is a capable man, and Ruchu is not bad either. As long as my parents agree, I have no objection."
In this case, let’s see what the Chen family thinks next.
In the following days, Song Yuehua went out early and came back late, busy in the cotton fields every day.
After Song Yuehua returned home and counted the days, she found that it was almost time to prepare for this year's Tianyuan Tournament.
She didn't plan to go there in the next two days, so she just asked Master Ma to send a message to the chess hall, asking Xiaofu and Xiaoyu to get ready first.
The next day, Xiaoqing and Pei Feng drove a carriage to Dongshan.
"girl!"
Pei Feng jumped off the carriage before it stopped and ran into the cotton field.
"Pei Feng, Xiao Qing," Song Yuehua exclaimed with a smile, "I thought you would send a letter."
Xiao Qing bowed and said, "You said in your letter that the new cotton is of good quality, so I thought of coming to see it myself."
Song Yuehua pointed at the cotton field and said, "We haven't finished harvesting yet. So far, there are only more than 2,000 kilograms. After removing the seeds, there are more than 1,000 kilograms. Are you going to take it back now?"
"Miss Song, I heard that besides your place, cotton is also grown in the mountains next door." Xiaoqing asked.
Song Yuehua nodded. Zhang Dandan had gone to find Baozi before, and she didn't know how the conversation went.
"Zhang Dandan in the village owns a shop. He contacted the South Courtyard to order cotton in advance. I'm afraid it would be a little late for you to go now." Song Yuehua explained to him.
Xiaoqing was upset that she was still a step too late.
"I'll go over and ask first. If there really isn't one, I'll think of a way."
After saying that, Xiaoqing was about to go to the South Courtyard.
Song Yuehua stopped him and said, "Don't worry, Zhang Dandan also wants to sell his cotton. You can buy it from him. The price won't be too expensive."
"Okay, I'll go ask first." Xiaoqing said and went to the South Courtyard.
Song Yuehua looked at Pei Feng and exclaimed, "Why have you lost so much weight!"
"I'm not thinner, I've just grown a little taller." Pei Feng said a little embarrassedly, and then took out the letter he sent from Wenzhou from his arms.
Song Yuehua took a look and found that in addition to the letters from Xiaoyu, Xiaotao and Xiaobao, there were also letters from Shitou and Xiaomian written to Grandma Wang.
"Why are these brother and sister written separately?" Song Yuehua said with a smile.
Pei Feng shook his head, "I don't know."
Song Yuehua put the letter away and took him to the compound to rest.
