The whole family traveled through ancient times to start a new business

At this moment in the Su family, Old Lady Su openly talked about the marriage of her children with her eldest daughter-in-law at the dinner table.

Su Yitong is already 17 years old. In the current environment, this age really can't be delayed any longer. Su Zhicheng, who is only a few months younger than Su Yitong, is also 17 years old and has reached the age to meet someone. Su Anyuan's health has also recovered, and it's time to find him a wife.

Looking at it this way, there are three marriages to discuss. In fact, in the minds of Mrs. Su and others, Su Yitong and Su Zhicheng are still half-grown children, in high school age, so there is really no need to rush to get married. But they also understand that people have to follow the general environment and cannot use their previous concepts to measure the current society.

Old Mrs. Su was not in a hurry to divorce Su Yijia. Even if she wanted to remarry, she had to choose a good family. This matter could not be rushed.

The reason why Mrs. Su didn't arrange a marriage for them before was that she wanted to wait until Su Anton passed the examination. In this way, the family they met could be raised to a higher level, and naturally different.

Old Madam Su said to her eldest daughter-in-law, "Old daughter-in-law, go find a good matchmaker. We are not afraid of spending money, so we must find a good one. Don't find one who doesn't tell the truth. You must find out everything." She turned around and said to Li Hongmei, "You can also help your eldest sister-in-law."

Both of them agreed.

Old Mrs. Su glanced at her sons and said, "I see you guys have been very busy lately and haven't been able to take care of the work in the fields! Pick a few more people in the village who are in financial difficulty and are honest people, and have them work for them for a long time! They will be able to help during the autumn harvest in a while."

Su Anping and his brothers looked at each other. Su Anping saw fatigue in his brothers' eyes. They really couldn't take care of everything. So he replied, "Okay, Mom, I'll choose a few people later."

If it were in the past, not only Su An Dong, but the other brothers would definitely not agree. But now the family is so busy, they really have no power. Even Su An Dong, who is taking the children to school, only teaches them for an hour a day, and lets them study on their own for the rest of the time. Su An Dong can no longer take care of it.

Su An Dong wanted them to go to a private school in the county, and he had mentioned this suggestion to his father-in-law. His father-in-law thought that the past two years were not good, and the family could not afford it for the time being, so he decided to let them study with Su An Dong first! The boys in the Su family did not want to go to the county to study, so they wanted to follow their uncle.

Su Anton thought of letting them study at home for a while. If they had no self-control and did not study well, he would send them to a private school in the county.

At present, it seems that the children are still very self-disciplined. The children supervise each other. Every time Su Anton finishes his class, they stay in the study to study. Even Su Zhihao, who doesn't like to study and thinks the ancient imperial examination books are too boring, was led to study. Boys! They always have self-esteem and are competitive, and don't want to be left behind.

After dinner, Su Yijia found Old Lady Su and told her what she was thinking: "Mom, I don't want to get married again."

Old Madam Su took her hand and said, "Don't worry! I won't force you. I will definitely ask for your opinion when I get married again. This time I'm not arranging a marriage for you. I will slowly look for a good one for you. There's no rush. This time I'm mainly looking for you, your fourth brother, your little sister, and Dalang."

Su Yijia felt relieved when she heard that.

Su Yitong on the side looked at Old Lady Su, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.

However, Old Mrs. Su looked like she didn't want to ask at all and just sat there without looking at her.

Su Yitong saw that her mother would not ask proactively, so she said obediently: "Mom, can I not discuss marriage yet? I don't want to get married yet."

Old Madam Su looked up at her and said, "If you don't want to get married now, then when will you want to get married? You are not young anymore. If you put it off any longer, the number of people you can choose from will get smaller and smaller. I'm afraid you won't be able to find a good one. Unless you want to find someone younger than you, but younger people may not necessarily want to find someone older. Yitong! You can't put it off any longer."

Su Yitong understood what Old Lady Su said, as there were many mothers of her age. However, her family was influenced by the Zhao family doctor, who thought it was not good for women to have children too early, so the children in her family got married one or two years later than others.

Old Lady Su looked at Su Yitong who lowered her head, feeling somewhat helpless. If possible, she would not want Su Yitong to get married so early, but this was the era, and the people here were like this. They did not have the ability to resist this environment, so they could only do their best to find a good candidate.

Old Madam Su pulled Su Yitong to sit next to her and said, "Don't worry, mother won't just find someone to marry you off. Mother will carefully look for candidates and will ask for your opinion. And I will try to postpone the wedding date, just settle the marriage first and get married next year."

After listening to what Old Lady Su said, Su Yitong felt much more at ease.

It is impossible to say that Su Yitong had never yearned for life after marriage. She was also a young girl and had imagined what it would be like for a couple to live in harmony. However, after seeing her sister's miserable married life and the Zhang family's breaking off the engagement, Su Yitong's aspirations were shattered.

But she knew in her heart that it was impossible not to get married. Apart from other things, if she, as an aunt, did not get married, what would happen to her three nieces? With such an aunt, how could her nieces find it easy to get married?

On the second day, after discussion among the brothers of the Su family, they found two men from families that were in financial difficulty and were honest people. One family found two men, four men in total. Su An Dong also found an honest and hardworking sister-in-law to help the women in the family with work.

With the help of these five people, the Su family felt relieved. Seeing the adults at home so busy, the boys who were studying would put down their books to help. Su Zhicheng was busy following the adults except for one hour a day.

This time, with someone to help and the family not being so busy, Su Anton was stricter about their studies. Although the classes were still one hour a day, the amount of homework assigned was much more.

After repeated inquiries by Zhao Yun and Li Hongmei, they finally found a matchmaker with a good reputation.

In fact, ever since Su Anton passed the imperial examination and became a scholar, matchmakers have come to the Su family, but Old Lady Su didn't like any of the men the matchmakers mentioned.

After finding a good matchmaker, Li Hongmei asked someone to give the matchmaker a message, and the next day, Matchmaker Li came to the Su family.

This matchmaker Li not only does matchmaking in the surrounding villages, but also in the county. She knows exactly which families have men and women of marriageable age.

What Old Lady Su was satisfied with about the matchmaker was that the marriages she arranged were all between people of equal social status. She had a very good reputation and she had never heard of any deception.

Although Mrs. Su would not just believe the matchmaker's words, she would definitely inquire about the situation of the family who wanted to propose marriage in private. But the matchmaker was good, and she would always recommend some relatively suitable candidates, which could save some unnecessary trouble.
