Gu Chengyan still didn't speak, and the woman moved to Gu Chengyan's right and continued speaking.
"Ji family boy, look, my daughter, Huaer, is of marriageable age. She is as beautiful as a flower. Many young men in the village have lined up to ask for her hand in marriage, but your aunt and uncle have refused."
"Aunt, just say whatever you want to say."
Gu Chengyan was getting a little impatient.
Whether his daughter is of marriageable age and what kind of husband she wants to find, what does it have to do with me? I don't know her well.
The woman saw that after she had said so much, Ji Liangchuan still looked clueless.
If this happened in the village, I would never look down on a blockhead like him.
But now it's different. Whoever can keep his family from starving will be the one he marries his daughter to! What's more, the man is chosen by his daughter herself. That's perfect.
"Haha, then Auntie, can you just say it straight?"
Gu Chengyan didn't say anything, but he felt a little annoyed with this person.
"My Huaer said today that she has taken a fancy to you."
After the woman finished speaking, she raised her chin, as if Gu Chengyan should feel lucky that Li Huaer fell in love with him.
After hearing this, Gu Chengzhi frowned.
"What? What's that expression on your face?"
"Ji family boy, let me tell you, my Hua'er is still a virgin. If she follows you, you must have burned incense in your previous life. Don't be ungrateful."
The woman saw that there was no surprise in Gu Chengyan's eyes, and there was even a hint of disgust, and she immediately felt unhappy.
"Aunt, thank you for your consideration, but I don't plan to get married yet."
When the woman heard this, she was shocked.
Since ancient times, marriages have always been proposed by the man. If the woman initiates it, she will be much inferior.
In other words, he is fleeing from famine now. Otherwise, he would not have the audacity to bring up this matter.
Ji Liangchuan, this kid, is so ungrateful!
"Ji family boy, what do you mean by this? Do you think you don't like my Huaer?"
Gu Chengyan looked at the woman in front of him with a headache.
If this were a man, he would have taken action himself!
"Aunt, what I mean is that I don't want to get married yet. As for whether I like your daughter or not, it doesn't seem to matter that much, right?"
All parents in the world think that their own children are the best. Women are no different.
She thought Gu Chengyan just looked down on her daughter.
"Ji Liangchuan, don't you see what your situation is? You're a well-known 'disaster star'. It won't be easy to find a wife in the future. As a person, you must know your own limitations."
"If my Hua'er hadn't said she liked you, do you think I would have the nerve to come to you and tell you this?"
Gu Chengyan's expression remained indifferent, and he didn't take what the woman said to heart at all.
"Since you know I'm a disaster star, you should stay away from me to avoid being cursed."
Woman: ...
This kid, his reputation is so bad, yet he still behaves like this! Humph, I want to see if he can get married in the future!
"If you don't want to, forget it. It's not like my Hua'er can't get married. You'll regret it later."
After the woman finished speaking, she left angrily.
Lin Jiuyue, who was not far away, heard what the woman and Gu Chengyan said and clicked her tongue twice.
I didn’t expect that Gu Chengyan would be so charming!
"Laugh if you want to, don't hold it in."
After hearing this, Lin Jiuyue finally couldn't help but laughed out loud.
"Gu Chengyan, I didn't expect you to be so charming?"
Gu Chengyan glanced at Lin Jiuyue indifferently.
"They're just looking for a meal ticket."
"You see clearly."
Gu Chengyan looked up at Lin Jiuyue.
"Do I look like a fool in your eyes?"
Lin Jiuyue shook her head subconsciously.
After being together for such a long time, although Gu Chengyan doesn't talk much, he is definitely not a fool.
Although he said that he had been staying in Mount Wutai all year round due to illness since childhood, how many children from wealthy families could be stupid? A stupid person wouldn't have lived to this day.
"Not really. I just think it's quite remarkable that you didn't let beauty fool you. Li Hua'er is indeed quite pretty."
Li Huaer is from Lijia Village. Although Lin Jiuyue is not familiar with her, in the original owner's memory, Li Huaer is indeed quite good-looking.
However, because of fleeing famine, Li Huaer is not as healthy as she was in the village. It may be because the food she eats is not as good as it used to be, and she is tired from traveling.
Gu Chengyan: ...
What on earth is going through this girl's mind day after day? In her eyes, is it that men only think about women?
Seeing that Gu Chengyan didn't respond to her, Lin Jiuyue felt bored talking alone. She left.
Gu Chengyan was the only one left by the fire.
Here, the woman went back angrily and told her family what Gu Chengyan had said.
After hearing this, Li Huaer burst into tears on the spot. She looked so charming and touching.
"Hua'er, Dad doesn't think Ji Liangchuan is a good person. It doesn't matter if he doesn't agree. Our Hua'er is beautiful, so why should she worry about not finding a good family?"
"When we get to the capital, I'll find a rich family to marry into and make that short-sighted Ji Liangchuan regret it to death."
Li Huaer held a handkerchief in her hand and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.
"Does he really think he's such a hot commodity? Everyone should be around him? I want to see what kind of beauty he can marry in the future!"
The woman had been furious ever since she came back from Gu Chengyan's place. She felt a pang of hatred when she thought of Gu Chengyan's stubborn attitude.
The woman had come to his house in person, and he actually took advantage of her? What kind of person did he really think he was?
Li Huaer, who was sitting next to her, was originally full of confidence. She thought that with Ji Liangchuan's reputation, he would be so happy when he heard that she liked him. She didn't expect that he would actually reject her!
He also said that he didn’t want to get married for the time being, but these are all excuses. The main reason is that he doesn’t like me!
"No, I want to go and ask him in person what he means."
The more Li Huaer thought about it, the angrier she became.
I have never been so embarrassed in front of a man in my life.
After being so blatantly rejected by that 'disaster star' Ji Liangchuan, what face do I have left? From now on, I won't be able to raise my head when I speak in the village.
When Li Huaer's father heard that Li Huaer still wanted to find Gu Chengyan, he hurriedly grabbed Li Huaer's clothes.
The woman's approach to the man about marriage was already a source of gossip, not to mention being rejected. It would also be bad for her reputation if this were to become public knowledge.
If Huaer went to find Ji Liangchuan at this time, and they started arguing and were heard by others, she would not be able to hold her head up in front of her fellow villagers.
