The fool has become a spirit, and she can speak

Shang Xi was also happy. Before she knew it, she grinned and revealed the same smile as Cheng Youning, a smile of smugness mixed with secret joy, and a secret joy mixed with the joy of success. With this yard full of young men, there was no worry that He Yela wouldn't be able to find a good one.

Shang Xi helped Madam Wan up and said, "Mother, you're an experienced person with discerning eyes and unique insight. Please help He Ye make her a good choice."

Madam Wan's bright eyes swept over all the young men. She smiled and said, "You're all spirited young men. Just look at your appearance, you're all quite good-looking." Madam Wan patted Shang Xi's shoulder, as if to encourage him, "Let He Ye finalize the marriage today. I'm waiting for your good news."

After saying this, Madam Wan left feeling refreshed.

Facing this courtyard full of people, who wouldn't be overjoyed! Yu Hua was dazzled, and Shang Xi couldn't tell who was right and who was wrong, but she could take charge of the overall situation. "Yu Hua, tell someone to have He Ye dress up a bit so she can meet people later."

Yu Hua nodded knowingly, "I have to handle this myself, otherwise He Ye is too shy to show her face."

Actually, the talkative Han Nianxia had already run to He Ye's courtyard to tell her, "Miss He Ye, are you still embroidering?"

He Ye gestured for Han Nianxia to sit down and poured her some tea. "When I have nothing to do at home, I can only pass the time by embroidering. You're all sweaty, have some tea to quench your thirst."

Han Nianxia said casually, "I ran here. He Ye, you're really steady. So many people came to the manor, and you were still able to sit still. I'm starting to look at you in a new light."

Lotus Leaf smiled slightly, "Who's here?"

"Huh? You really don't know, or are you just pretending?"

He Ye was still smiling. She picked up the teapot and poured Han Nianxia another cup of water. "What's going on? Why are you being so mysterious?"

Her quiet little courtyard rarely gets any visitors, but Han Nianxia can be considered a regular here. Others are afraid of her, and Han Nianxia is afraid of her too. Perhaps it's because they're both in their twenties, and the two of them have something to talk about. So every three to five days, Nianxia will come here to have a couple of cups of tea and chat about this and that.

"Lotus Leaf, you have quite the influence! My cousin and his wife have invited the four most famous matchmakers in the entire capital to help you find a husband."

"You... hired a matchmaker for me?"

While the panicked He Ye was still doubting her ears, Han Nianxia continued to speak fluently.

"The four matchmakers, Wang, Liu, Zhu, and Ma, lived up to their reputation. They brought back a whole courtyard of men in just one hour, all of them young and vigorous lads."

"What?"

"What the hell?! Aren't you going to go check it out?! Let's go!" The carefree Han Nianxia got up, grabbed He Ye's hand, and started to walk out. He Ye bent over and gripped the table tightly, as if she would live or die with the table. But how could a wooden table be a match for the two of them? Soon the table was being pulled and shifted by the two of them, and the teacups on the table began to clink.

Lotus Leaf begged for mercy, "I won't go."

Han Nianxia insisted: "How can you not go? All those men are prepared for you. How can you choose a husband if you don't go? Let me tell you, the whole courtyard is waiting for you. Come with me. We've kept everyone waiting too long."

"Miss Nianxia, ​​please spare me, I beg you."

At this moment, Yu Hua, her face flushed, tiptoed in. Seeing the two of them red-faced and pulling at each other as if they were fighting over something deadly, she said, "Hey, what are you two pulling at? Let go!"

Han Nianxia first said, "Yuhua, I asked Heye to go on a blind date, but she won't go."

Yu Hua straightened the hairpin in He Ye's hair, then said with a smile, "You can't go like this! He Ye, change your clothes, wear something brighter, put on more makeup, and dress up nicely before you go to see people."

He Ye couldn't accept reality and said awkwardly, "Aunt Yu Hua, I don't want to find a husband."

"You silly child, it's you whether you look for a husband or not! Do you know that because of your word, your aunt has invited the four most prestigious matchmakers in the entire capital? Now there's a whole courtyard of ordinary young men waiting for you to choose. Don't be shy or put on airs at this time. This is a matter of your whole life, concerning your happiness for the rest of your life. Your uncle and aunt have used a lot of effort and money to find you a husband. Every young man in that courtyard is from a good family and comes from a poor background. You can pick and choose freely. Tall or short, fat or thin, black or white, big or small eyes, single or double eyelids, high or low nose bridges, you can find whatever you want."

Lotus Leaf stood there like a wooden sculpture, motionless, while her uncle and aunt moved far too quickly.

Yu Hua patted He Ye on the shoulder. "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and get ready! There are so many people here, don't keep them waiting too long. He Ye, let me tell you, if you see someone you like, don't be shy. Settle the engagement today and try to get married after the New Year. Your uncle has given your aunt a firm order, telling her to put aside everything outside the city and focus on finding you a husband. And your dowry is almost ready. He Ye, you're lucky to have such an uncle and aunt. They care so much about your marriage, so you should take it seriously. Open your eyes wide this time, and if you see someone you like, settle down decisively. You can't delay any longer at this age."

He Ye was filled with the thought that she didn't want to go on blind dates, but under Yu Hua's lecturing, she compromised and gave in. Her own affair had alarmed a whole group of people. Even though she was unwilling and helpless, she had to follow Yu Hua's wishes and go out to meet people. So many people were waiting for her, including her aunt. If she didn't go, wouldn't all those people be left standing there?

Lotus Leaf changed into a green dress, re-tied her hair into a bun, and then followed Yu Hua.

Upon seeing Shang Xi, He Ye lowered her head shyly. Shang Xi smiled broadly and took her hand, saying, "I haven't even had a chance to tell you about the blind date I'm going to, and the matchmaker has already brought people here. It seems that this kind of thing needs to be handled by a professional. He Ye, don't be too nervous or shy. Your Aunt Yu Hua and I will be here with you. You can look at each person who comes in. If you like them, nod; if you don't, shake your head."

He Ye nodded, feeling extremely uncomfortable as Shang Xi pressed her into a chair.

First to enter were Wang the Matchmaker's people. At first, Wang the Matchmaker was full of confidence and beaming, but by the end, her face was pale and her spirits were low. She pulled Yu Hua's hand and led her out. None of the men she had brought today had been chosen; she, as the top matchmaker of Fengying, was somewhat embarrassed. "Steward Yu Hua, what's going on? Surely the young master's niece isn't just shaking her head and not nodding, is she? So many young men and not a single one has taken a liking to her?"
