"Oh, you two are really amazing! Which village are you from?"

"How do you practice?"

"Your sister was able to defeat the bull. It looks like she will definitely get a good result this time!"

All of a sudden, Bai Jiri was surrounded by everyone and everyone started asking him questions at once.

Bai Yiri was so proud.

In the past, their family was despised in Village 11.

Now that they have come to the county, they have become the envy of everyone in this selection competition. What a great feeling!

The referee came up to check on Manniu's condition, and then announced that Bai Jiyue was the winner.

Bai Jiyue walked off the stage with his head held high and chest puffed out. Like Bai Jiri, he was surrounded by the crowd.

Bai Jiri proudly protected his sister and separated her from the crowd.

After both of them finished their games, they happily went to the audience seats below to look for their mother.

Among the previous few matches, the match between Shirayoshi Hibiki and Shirayoshi Yue was the most exciting, so the two of them were remembered by the audience.

Now when the audience sees them coming to find Yan Niang, they all look at her with envy.

Those middle-aged women are particularly envious:

"Tsk, tsk, how did you raise your children to be so outstanding?"

"Not only is he a great martial artist, he's also handsome!"

"Hey, with this mother here, how can the child not be pretty?"

"How old is your son? I have a daughter who is fourteen this year. Would you like to consider..."

"My son is not in a hurry. Let him gain some experience first before talking about marriage." Yan Niang responded to the last sentence.

Bai Jiyue looked at Yan Niang's proud expression and smiled with his hands covering his mouth.

This is the happiness of being a mother. Seeing your children being treated like a star makes you feel proud too.

"Sister, look, Ma Qiao is on the court!" Bai Jiyun was more interested in the game and nudged Bai Jiyue with his arm and shouted.

Bai Jiyue stretched his head to look, and sure enough, he saw the last group of people playing in the game, including Ma Qiao.

Ma Qiao's opponent was a teenager of about the same age as him, and the two men fought each other with equal strength.

It took Ma Qiao a lot of effort to defeat the boy, and he was punched several times on the chin and chest.

"I hope I don't have to face him in the next game!" said Bai Jiyun.

"We are not afraid of him. Your sister is more powerful than him now!" Yan Niang interrupted.

Bai Jiyun said with a click of his tongue: "Look at mother, she's so proud now!"

After saying this, the whole family burst into laughter.

After the preliminary round, it was time for lunch and everyone went to have lunch and wait for the competition to continue in the afternoon.

Bai Jiyue took his family to Yuebinlou again and asked for a private room.

Big brother was injured today, and she also put in some effort to defeat the bull, so she needs to make a sumptuous meal to reward herself.

She ordered a large table of dishes without hesitation, ate them while chatting and laughing with her family, and called the waiter to pay the bill. The waiter told her, "Someone has already paid for your meal."

Bai Jiyue was surprised: "Oh, who is it?"

The waiter said "wait a moment" and left. After a while, he led two men in and said, "These two guests."

Bai Jiyue looked over and saw two men.

A middle-aged man, and a young boy, about the same age as Bai Yiri.

"Are you sure you've made a mistake? We don't know you at all, so why are you helping us pay the bill?" Bai Jiyue asked.

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "You're right. This meal is just a small expense. It's just a token of our appreciation as the host."

Bai Jiyue blinked and said nothing.

There is no free lunch in the world. They actually helped her pay the bill, which meant they must have something to ask for, so she didn't say anything and waited for them to ask.

Sure enough, the middle-aged man said again: "Miss Bai, I really admire your performance on the field today, so I brought my son here to meet you."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Niang stood up, bowed and said, "Big brother, we appreciate your kindness, but making friends is a matter of fate. How can we ask you to treat us to a meal?"

She turned to Bai Jiyue and said, "Jiyue, give the meal money to this uncle."

Bai Jiyue nodded, took out a string of copper coins from his waist and handed it to the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man didn't answer.

Yan Niang said again: "Please accept the money, otherwise we will feel uneasy. If you accept the money, we can still be your friend. Friendship cannot be bought with money, don't you agree?"

The middle-aged man smiled bitterly and said, "What the lady said makes so much sense. I would be in trouble if I didn't accept it." Then he took the money.

Then the middle-aged man introduced himself. His name was Jiang Hong, and his son was Jiang Chen, who was sixteen years old. According to him, he lived in the county town and was a businessman who ran a grain store. His family had several large houses and was in very good condition.

From what he implied, it seemed that both he and his son had taken a fancy to Bai Jiyue and wanted to propose marriage.

Yan Niang politely expressed her wish to keep her daughter at home for a few more years.

Jiang Hong said to Jiang Chen, "Go out and see if there are any delicious snacks. Ask the waiter to order some."

Jiang Chen went out in response. Jiang Hong said, "I am not afraid of being embarrassed. To tell you the truth, my son has been weak since he was young and is not good at martial arts. My family is quite wealthy, but I am afraid that my son will not be able to keep it in the future, so I am willing to find a woman with high cultivation to marry and bring home, so that I can support the family in the future.

"I saw that Miss Bai was very skilled in martial arts and had a beautiful appearance. My son also liked her very much, so I came to ask for her hand in marriage. My wife died young, so I can guarantee that once Miss Bai gets married, she will be the mistress of the family in the future and will have full authority over household affairs. My son and I will only be responsible for external business and ensure that Miss Bai will have no worries about food and clothing throughout her life."

At this point, Jiang Hong was still somewhat proud: "Although my son is not good at martial arts, he is still smart and good at accounting. My business will be inherited by him in the future, and it will definitely get better and will not fail. Now all I need is a wife who is good at martial arts. The two of us complement each other, and this family will be more stable."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Yan Niang and said, "Mother-in-law, what do you think?"

Yan Niang smiled and said, "Mr. Jiang's family is very well-off, and we are marrying up. However, my Jiyue is participating in the selection competition, and the result is still unknown. It is not appropriate to discuss this now. So, you give us a few days to think about it, and we will give you an answer after the selection competition is over, okay?"

"Of course, of course! Of course I have to think about it carefully, this is a lifelong event!" Jiang Hong said.

Yan Niang said: "It's getting late, the children have a game in the afternoon-"

"Okay, then I'll take my leave!" Jiang Hong was also a perceptive man, so he stood up and said goodbye immediately.

Yan Niang very politely asked Bai Ji Ri to send him out.

After he left, Yan Niang looked at Bai Jiyue: "Jiyue, what do you think?"
