That means he is not married.
"Young Master You is only just over twenty years old. Now that you have achieved success in your career, it's time for you to think about settling down and starting a family."
Matchmaking has always been something that elders particularly enjoy doing.
Youqing laughed it off.
How could she get married? If she did, wouldn't that be ruining the young lady's life?
The wedding was very lively. Youqing found the festive scene much more interesting than the Western-style weddings she had attended before.
That evening, Youqing returned home after the wedding banquet. With Madam Shen having settled her son's marriage and her husband's career progressing smoothly, the next thing to worry about was her daughter.
Although my daughter hasn't reached the age of marriage yet, it's only a few years away. We'll look at potential partners now, settle down in the next year or the year after, and get married around the time of her coming-of-age ceremony.
"I've heard quite a few ladies asking about You Qing today, planning to make him their son-in-law! Don't you have any thoughts on that?"
Shen Jia'an was puzzled; what could he possibly be thinking?

Madam Shen glared at him again. This man really was a blockhead, never getting it.
"Yuzhen will be of marriageable age in less than two years. What do you think about betrothing Yuzhen to You Qing?"
As Shen Jia'an spent more time with Youqing, Madam Shen learned more about Youqing. She knew that Youqing was a good person with good character and ability. Although she had a flirtatious face, she didn't have a single confidante by her side, and her concubines were even more useless. It would be a pity if such a man didn't become her son-in-law.
"What are you saying?!" Shen Jia'an was shocked by his wife's words.
Madam Shen glanced at him and said, "You are the county magistrate, and for the time being, no one in the entire Sanbo County can surpass you. But I haven't seen any other young master who is better than You Qing. I'm doing this so that Yuzhen can have a good home."
