Locked: God is the matchmaker, neither you nor I can escape

She was already 23 at the end of the world, and after coming here for a year, she is already 24, but she doesn’t know if this body has reached adulthood.

What if she’s not yet an adult... Never mind. I’ve already lost my virginity for more than a year. What’s the point of worrying about it? As long as I don’t have a baby so early, it’ll be fine.

Hua Murong glared at Yan Yiyi with a look of disappointment, but when she thought of her sister's amnesia and not remembering anything, she sighed helplessly: "You are sixteen years old this year. According to the laws of Zhaoguo, you were indeed of marriageable age last year.

Originally, your parents were thinking of finding someone else for you when you were eighteen, but things are unpredictable and now that you’re married, when do you plan to come home to see your parents?

We have been looking for you for a whole year, and your family will not feel at ease until you return home safely."

Yan Yiyi was stunned. She didn't expect that she would actually go back to her parents' home.

Yes, meeting my foster brother is like having another relative. Not only did I learn from Yoyo's stories how much my foster father and his family loved me, but now that I'm face to face with my foster brother, I can also vaguely feel his sincere care for me.

Xin Ye nodded: "Indeed, wife, shall we go back directly with my brother-in-law?"

Hua Murong glanced at Xin Ye with a look that said "You're quite a sensible boy", and then her gaze fell back on Yan Yiyi, full of expectation.

Yan Yiyi just shook her head. Without Hua Murong's excuse, she took the initiative to explain: "There are still things at home that we need to go back and deal with. We need to wait until we finish dealing with the things at home before going back."

"What is it that requires you to go back and take care of it?"

Xin Ye immediately thought of the sweet potatoes in the field, frowned and said, "In fact, things at home are already on track. Even without your guidance, the adults, my father and the villagers can handle it properly. There is no need for you to personally check it."

Yan Yiyi quietly pinched Xin Ye's waist and glared at him with a warning look: "Have you forgotten that we still have good seeds in the car that need to be planted immediately?

I don’t remember how far it is to go to Sand City, but returning home would delay us for at least two months, and by then it would be too late to sow seeds.”

Xin Ye slapped his forehead and realized that he had indeed forgotten about corn and potatoes.

"This is your first visit to your father-in-law and mother-in-law. Wouldn't it be disrespectful if we didn't prepare some special gifts with our limited resources?"

Xin Ye knew that Yan Yiyi had a lot of treasures, but it was not right for someone of their status to take out so many rare items. It would be better for them to bring sweet potatoes as gifts, which are rare and can represent their thoughts.

We can also popularize sweet potatoes in Shacheng. Bring more as seeds when the time comes. The Hua family can use sweet potatoes to build relationships. You know, sweet potatoes have been a rare commodity that has been fought over in recent years, especially since sweet potatoes can be used to make so many delicious foods!

Xin Ye looked at Hua Murong apologetically: "Please forgive me, brother-in-law. I am just an ordinary country boy and I can't bring anything good. But there are many good things in the mountains and fields. We need to go back to the countryside to prepare."

Seeing that he really wanted to prepare a gift, Hua Murong didn't give him a cold look: "How long will it take to prepare?"

"At least more than a month." Yan Yiyi replied.

"How long does it take to get back to your village from here?" Hua Murong asked again.

Xin Ye: "The carriage will take four or five days."

Hua Murong calculated based on her own experience and the time given by the two people: "It will take at least forty days for a carriage to get from Guyang County back to Shacheng. If we encounter bad weather, the time may be even longer.

You will need about two months to deal with the things at home now, plus the time to go back home, and I will budget another two months, which makes four months.

It is already the end of June. I suggest that you spend the Mid-Autumn Festival in the village and then return to Shacheng to celebrate the New Year. How about that? "

Yan Yiyi looked at Xin Ye, who lowered his head to look at her, and then smiled gently: "I always listen to my wife."

Yan Yiyi: ...There is no need to show loyalty at this time.

After thinking about it seriously, this is indeed feasible. As for planting potatoes in the mountains, you can just plant them before you set out. As for whether they will grow, it depends on God's will. Then you can dig them when you come back after the New Year.

It can also test the capabilities of the mountain behind and verify guesses in one's mind. If the verification is successful, one can then go into the mountain and plant the seeds in advance without having to make excuses saying that the seeds were found from other places.

"We need to go back and discuss it with my father-in-law." Yan Yiyi gave the answer, "If nothing unexpected happens, we will set off after the Mid-Autumn Festival."

Hua Murong's eyes lit up: "Okay! I'll go write a letter to my parents right away."

After turning around and taking two steps, Hua Murong turned around again and said, "Pack your things now and follow me back to the mansion in Liangguan County. You can stay at the mansion next time you come to Liangguan County. It's inconvenient to stay at an inn."

Yan Yiyi blinked her clear and lively eyes: "Does our family have any property in Liangguan County?"

Hua Murong's heart softened, and she opened her mouth, but the words took a detour when they reached her lips: "I won't tell you for now, you will know later, or when you recover your memory now."

Yan Yiyi glared unhappily at her brother who was teasing her on purpose, but she didn't think there was anything wrong with it. She always felt that this was how they should get along.

"Huabei, go help the young lady and her husband pack their luggage, and we will go home together."

"Yes." Hua Bei agreed.

Hua Murong just remembered that she hadn't introduced Hua Bei: "Hua Bei is one of my personal guards. I brought him with me when I came to Liangguan County this time. The others are carrying out my orders in other places."

Hua Bei: "Meet the young lady, meet the uncle."

Both of them nodded in return, and the two sides reached a preliminary understanding.

After packing up, he checked out of the hotel. Hua Bei drove the carriage that Xin Ye had brought to the wealthy street in the east district and stopped in front of a three-courtyard house.

Yan Yiyi and Xin Ye jumped out of the car and looked up at the plaque at the door, which had the words "Hua Fu" written in a neat and tidy manner.

"go in."

Hua Murong led the two of them into the house, and immediately asked the housekeeper to gather all the servants and guards to come and introduce themselves to the eldest lady and her husband.

After Hua Murong gave the servant a beating, she asked him to leave.

"Brother, have you always lived in Liangguan County?" Yan Yiyi asked curiously.

"No, we received news that you might appear in Liangguan County, so my father sent me here to look for you and expand our influence here. We bought this place as a residence for our subordinates who occasionally come here for inspections or to perform tasks here."

"Is our family in business? What businesses do we have?"

"Teahouses, taverns, and brothels are all slightly involved."

"Brothel!?" Xin Ye and Yan Yiyi looked at Hua Murong at the same time.

Hua Murong recalled what Xin Ye had mentioned before, that her sister was almost sold to a brothel after losing her memory, and immediately explained: "In our brothel, prostitution is voluntary, there is no coercion, and most women only sell their art and not their bodies."
