After fleeing famine, I have thousands of acres of fertile land
Chapter 466 Ye Qiu is anxious
"Aunt, I'm not cold. I have to go to the academy later." Xiubao can now embroider simple patterns by herself.
Xiubao took his hands out of the basin and took Zhou into the house.
"Xiao Qiu, what did you ask Xiu Bao to soak?"
Ye Qiu poured her a glass of water. "Milk. The cow at home has given birth, and we can't finish all the milk. Xiubao just wants to learn embroidery, so let her soak in water for a while every day, just as a way to maintain her hands."
Zhou didn't understand this either. She touched Xiubao's hand and found it was indeed very tender.
Xiubao packed up, carried his things, said goodbye to his family, and went out.
Ye Qiu finally had time to sit down and talk to Zhou, "Sister-in-law, I'll give you a bowl of soy milk."
"I came here after dinner. I came to see you about the soy milk."
"What's the matter with the soy milk? Ping An wants to drink it. I'll send some to you every day."
Zhou quickly refused, "It's not the family that wants it, it's Old Madam Jiang who drinks soy milk every day, and she wants to order fresh soy milk."
"I thought it was something wrong. We just had lots of soy milk at home. I asked him to come get it. We have fresh soy milk at home."
Zhou came over in person just to give her some advice, "Bring some soy milk with you today and go with me in person, and you can also meet Old Madam Jiang."
Ye Qiu was puzzled, "Sister-in-law, do I have to send you off every day?"
Zhou felt that Ye Qiu had lived too comfortably in recent years and had no plans at all.
"Both of my nephews are old enough to get married, but our family doesn't have the resources. You should talk to Old Madam Jiang often and ask her to help introduce them." Mrs. Zhou didn't beat around the bush and told her directly.
Ye Qiu didn't think too much about it when the two children were not in front of him. By this calculation, the two children were not young anymore.
"My mother-in-law said these days that she could ask someone to arrange marriages for the two children. I said there was no rush, thinking that they were scholars and it would be easy to arrange marriages for them." Whenever Ye Qiu went out, people often wanted to arrange marriages for her two sons, but she didn't take it seriously.
"You, you also know that both children are scholars. As a mother, you should find him a wife who can read and write, so that they can get along well in the future." Zhou regretted not calling her home to tell her, and Li could also scold her for being confused.
Ye Qiu was not a person without plans, it’s just that he had lived too comfortably in the past few years and didn’t think about these things.
"Sister-in-law is right. I was thinking wrongly. I will go to deliver the soy milk to Madam Jiang myself." Ye Qiu hurried into the kitchen.
When Mr. Sun heard that someone was asking someone to find a marriage for his grandson, he personally watched the fire and cooked a pot.
The craftsmanship inherited from the Sun family is truly unmatched by ordinary families.
Ye Qiu chose a clean food box, wrapped it with a quilt, carried it carefully, and followed Zhou to Old Madam Jiang.
Old Madam Jiang didn't ask the maid to make soy milk today, and was waiting for Ping'an to deliver it.
She looked at the time. It was already time for Ping'an to come to study, but she hadn't seen Ping'an yet.
She was wondering if Zhou had forgotten about it, so she would ask her maid to go there in person and buy more.
Before she could finish her thought, there was a knock on the door.
The old woman went out to open the door and led the two people in.
"Why did you come here in person? What did you bring?" Old Lady Jiang looked at the food box in Ye Qiu's hand with interest.
Ye Qiu had also met Madam Jiang a few times. She smiled and replied, "It contains soy milk. My father specially made two kinds of soy milk. Try it and see which one you like."
Old Madam Jiang asked the maid to bring two clean bowls and poured some soy milk into each.
She picked up the bowl carefully. The soy milk had been in the food box for a while, so it was slightly hot.
Old Madam Jiang took a small sip first, and the rich aroma of the soy milk filled her mouth. It tasted much better than the one she made at home.
Madam Jiang took two sips and put down the bowl. She was now full of curiosity about the other bowl. With such exquisite craftsmanship, it should taste even better.
Old Madam Jiang guessed correctly. The other bowl was cooked a little longer and had a stronger bean flavor, which immediately conquered Madam Jiang.
"Madam, which one do you like?"
Madam Jiang was reluctant to give up either of them. "Let's take turns giving them to each other. I like both. Give me the stronger flavor one tomorrow."
Ye Qiu took note that Old Madam Jiang’s taste was heavier.
After seeing that they had finished talking about soy milk, Zhou changed the subject and talked about what happened yesterday.
Old Madam Jiang was very pleased when she heard that Zhou had set her eyes on Ling and they also had their eyes on Miss Yang and wanted to tell Ye Chenze about Miss Yang.
The Yang family lives far away in the provincial capital, but they will definitely come back for the New Year this year. The old man and old lady of the Yang family are still alive, and they come back every year.
Zhou understood what she meant and agreed to wait until the Chinese New Year to bring it up again. This would also be a good opportunity for her to write a letter to ask Ye Chenze for his opinion.
The Ling family can ask Old Madam Jiang to go and help get some fresh air first, and they will then invite a matchmaker to come.
Since Old Madam Jiang mentioned this marriage, she was not doing it without purpose. It must be that the Ling family and the Yang family also wanted her to help introduce them.
Ye Qiu listened quietly at the side. After hearing about the family background of the two girls, he realized that he had been too relaxed before.
Ye Qiu spoke only after Zhou finished speaking.
"Madam, my two children are not young anymore, and we don't have many connections. If you have a suitable one, please help introduce them to me." Ye Qiu said sincerely.
Old Madam Jiang always cared about these two children. They were very honest and often brought them tofu from home.
The tofu their family used to eat in Wu'an City was all given by these two children.
Madam Jiang agreed. Seeing that Madam Jiang looked a little tired, Zhou tactfully took Ye Qiu away.
Of course, before leaving, she did not forget to make an appointment with Old Madam Jiang. When she went to Wu'an City, her family would send her there in a carriage.
The Ye family bought a horse-drawn carriage. When the weather was bad, they would drive the carriage into the city, but they were reluctant to use it at other times.
Old Madam Jiang is also a quick-witted person, and they agreed to go out early tomorrow morning.
Old Madam Jiang was planning to return to the city in the next few days to prepare things for the New Year.
It is almost the twelfth lunar month now, and after Laba it will be the New Year.
Ye Chenjing drove the carriage over early in the morning and helped put all the luggage on the carriage before driving the carriage to the city.
Ye Chenjing was worried about disturbing Old Madam Jiang, so he drove very slowly on the road and put cakes and hot tea in the car.
Old Madam Jiang had a maid to serve her. There was a lot of space in the carriage and it ran steadily. She took a nap in the carriage and then arrived at Wu'an City.
Ye Chenjing felt a little embarrassed. He helped put the things away at home and helped with the housework before leaving the Jiang family.
Madam Jiang said that she would go to the Ling family tomorrow to find out more. Ye Chenjing wanted to know the news as soon as possible, so he did not go back and stayed at Ye Dalang's place for one night.
The next morning, Ye Chenjing went to the Jiang family with the breakfast he bought. He brought the carriage over and the Jiang family's carriage was sent for repair.
Old Madam Jiang was not joking with Ye Chenjing. Young people are very shy and their faces turn red after just a few words.
