Traveling through ancient times, I led my family to prosperity

Miss Wang San is seventeen years old this year. She has the same temperament as her mother, strong and aggressive. She has lived up to her mother's expectations. At such a young age, she has helped to manage the business of the inn, just like a boy.

Everyone can see the current situation at the Peace Inn, and it is clear as a mirror that Miss Wang San is definitely looking for a son-in-law.

But don't be fooled by Wang San's plain appearance and her hot temper. But with the Peace Inn here, there are many people who want to marry into the family. However, Miss Wang San is a person with her own ideas, and she doesn't take those who value her family's wealth seriously.

Xiao Lan focused her eyes on Xiao Liang beside her. His broad shoulders, long legs and slightly lazy temperament made him a handsome guy if he dressed up and didn't talk. She had noticed that when the young girls and wives on the street passed by them, they would intentionally or unintentionally hit Xiao Liang with sticks. Although they tried to hide their actions, they still couldn't escape her eyes.

"Brother Xiaoliang, when we go back later, if our grandma, our eldest aunt and our second aunt ask us what we did today, can you please not tell them that we bought these things?" Xiaolan discussed with Xiaoliang.

"Ah?" Xiao Liang expressed confusion.

"Those were the dowry bought for my sister Xiaoting. The date for my elder sister's wedding hasn't been set yet, and I didn't want to think about the dowry, but someone started nagging me about it." Xiaolan made up an excuse.

"Okay, I won't tell you." Xiao Liang said.

Xiao Liang's personality is very different now. He has become much calmer. Since he agreed, Xiao Lan could only choose to believe that he would not say it out loud.

Along the way, Xiao Lan bought some other food, intending to distribute it to each room when she returned to the county government office.

After dinner, the family slept on the kang.

"Mom, you saw it today, right? We went to the Heping Inn and Miss Wang San came over again and again just to see Brother Xiaoliang." Xiao Lan whispered to Zhang.

"It's not like I don't have eyes, how could I not see this?" Zhang obviously wanted to talk about this topic, "I saw her as soon as we entered the door of the inn. At that time, she saw your brother Xiaoliang. Later, she brought us tea and snacks. I guess we are relying on your brother Xiaoliang's help today. She even charged us less for our meal today... When we were eating, she went in and out several times..."

Xiaowen didn't say anything, but he pricked up his ears to listen to the mother and daughter's whisper.

When Zhang said this, she started laughing.

"Although she is a young lady who is always in the limelight, judging from her appearance and the way the shop assistants and customers treat her, she should be a decent girl. Although her appearance is not worthy of Xiaoliang, I think she can just get by. I think she has a good figure and should be able to give birth... It's just this marriage... Oh, if it weren't for this, I would have helped to talk it out..."

"Brother Xiaoliang and his family should be settling down in Hejian County," Xiaolan thought of the speech at the tea stall. "If the Wang family is interested in Brother Xiaoliang, they will definitely find someone to tell him. Then it will depend on whether Second Uncle and Second Uncle's wife agree or not."

"Yes, that's true...Ah, in the blink of an eye, you have all grown up..." Zhang said with emotion.

In a blink of an eye, it was the day when Sheng Chunhua would return home on the third day. Early in the morning, everyone in the Sheng family put on new clothes, cleaned the yard, prepared wine and food, and prepared to welcome the arrival of the new son-in-law.

Hearing the sound of a carriage outside, someone said that the new son-in-law's carriage had arrived.

Xiaolan and Xiaowen ran out.

The Zheng family's carriage had stopped in front of the county government office. Several maids and old women were standing in front of the carriage, surrounding a man in a bright red robe.

Xiao Lan first saw the man’s back. This must be the new son-in-law, Xiao Lan thought to herself.

It's just that his back is a little hunched... Isn't he prettier than a grown-up girl? But no matter how you look at his back, it doesn't look like him at all. Xiao Lan suddenly remembered what was said at the tea stall, and at this moment, she suddenly felt that something was wrong.

When the new son-in-law turned around, Xiaolan grabbed Xiaowen's hand and prevented herself from screaming.

This face...why is the new son-in-law an old man?

The bright red robe, black hair and black beard could not hide the age of the new son-in-law. With this face and this figure, this man must be at least fifty years old...

With a fluke mentality, Xiao Lan looked around, but she soon lost hope. In addition to this man, there were some maids and servants around. In addition, there were servants and servants carrying gifts.

After a while, another person got off the car. It was Chunhua. Chunhua was wearing a red dress and her hair was full of pearls and jade. She got off the car with the help of several maids and women.

Sheng Nuo, Sheng Kai, Wang and Xu had already come out to greet him. Sheng Nuo and Sheng Kai hurriedly stepped forward to salute the old man, calling him Master Zheng Er.

"My two uncles, please don't address me by this name from now on. Just call me by my courtesy name." The black-haired old man said with a kind smile.

Xiaolan and Xiaowen looked at each other. Without anyone saying anything, they understood what the situation before them meant.

Sheng Nuo and Sheng Kai took Master Zheng Er to the front hall, while Wang and Xu took Chunhua to the inner courtyard.

"Grandpa and old lady, please invite aunt and new son-in-law into the house to pay their respects." Someone shouted at this time.

Sheng Nuo and Sheng Kai were obviously startled, but they still led Master Zheng Er to the front hall. However, Master Zheng Er waved his hand and said that he should go and greet his father-in-law and mother-in-law first.

At this time, Xiaolan hurriedly took Xiaowen's hand and went back to the inner courtyard to find Zhang.

Zhang saw the two children looking flustered and asked, "What happened?"

Before the two children could reply, Zhang saw Chunhua and Master Zheng Er who had already walked into the yard.

Zhang opened her mouth, staring at all this in amazement, and was unable to recover for a moment.

"Mom, don't say anything," Xiao Lan hurriedly pulled Zhang's corner, brought her back to reality, and reminded her.

"......What's going on?" Zhang muttered to herself.

In the upper room, Mr. Sheng and Mrs. Cui were already dressed in new clothes and were sitting upright on the kang, while Lanhua and Mrs. Shen were sitting on chairs on the floor. They listened to the news outside that the aunt and the new son-in-law had arrived, and expectant smiles appeared on their faces.

Cui was particularly excited. She couldn't help but stretch her neck and look towards the door. Shen stretched her neck even further and stared at the door.
