What? Am I going on a blind date again?

Lu Yao, who hadn't been on a blind date for a long time, shuddered for some reason when she heard the word "blind date".

"It must be that brick that hit me last time that left me with a psychological trauma." Lu Yao affirmed to herself.

The most suffering I have experienced in this life is the suffering of blind dates.

The pit I fall into most often is the blind date pit.

"Brother-in-law, where did you find this family this time?

Is the other party far from Shanyang Village?

Is there anyone in your family working in the city?

The key is, do you have any immediate family members who have read the books of the saints?"

Lu Yao inquired very seriously.

"The young man this time is from the Zhang family in Daxin Village. What a coincidence, it was the matchmaker there who came to me and mentioned this to me."

Daxinzhuang?

Lu Yao remembered that the village was to the south of Shanyang Village, just over two hills, about seven or eight miles away.

Lu Yao shrank back: "This is too close! Hasn't his family heard of my reputation?

If you know me and still dare to look for me, I'm afraid there is some trap, right?

What does this family want?

Are you after my beauty or my body?

"I just want you to be a good person!" Father Lu, who came quietly over, was so angry after hearing what his daughter said that he slapped her hard:

"Don't you see what time it is? You are still picking and choosing here!

You've looked for so many people before, but they all left as soon as they heard you were a coward. Now you finally find someone who doesn't care about your reputation, and you're afraid that they'll cheat you?

Who dares to cheat you, Er Gouzi? "

The old couple of the Lu family now know why the ones introduced by the eldest brother-in-law and the two introduced by aunt Liu Fang did not work out.

When they thought about it, the old couple became so angry that their teeth itched.

"You're trying to pick a fight with me? You're lucky to find someone who's willing to meet you!

If you keep doing this and that, and end up delaying important things, you will be the one to be exiled!"

Uncle Lu wishes his daughter could find someone to marry right away, so that he won’t have to pay a fine if he can’t find one.

Although the Lu family can now collect sixty taels of silver, in Father Lu's opinion, paying the fine is not as appropriate as finding a husband.

Why do you have to spend sixty taels of silver to solve a problem that can be solved by finding a husband?

That’s a huge sum of money, sixty taels!

After paying the huge fine, she would still have to marry a man in the future. It would be better to marry him quickly and save the sixty taels of silver to live on.

The eldest brother-in-law looked at it and smiled, saying: "Dad is right, meeting one more person means one more chance, maybe it will work.

Er Gouzi, I'll tell you the truth. The matchmaker from the other side secretly told me that the Zhang family is attracted by your ten taels of silver as a betrothal gift, and they don't care about your reputation.

I have told my parents all this, and they agree."

Lu Yao was secretly surprised: You are still trying to get my gift, regardless of whether I am a human being or not?

At first, Lu Yao could never find a husband, and the two elders of the Lu family had no choice but to hire a husband at a high price.

Therefore, if someone came for the betrothal gift of ten taels of silver, the elders of the Lu family would not think it was a big deal.

Isn't this exactly their plan?

But Lu Yao always felt weird in her heart, as if something was not right.

"Okay, I'll go meet him and you can make the arrangements." Lu Yao agreed.

She herself has not realized that she no longer has the enthusiasm for blind dates and the urgency to get married as soon as possible.

Some things and some mentalities have changed quietly without us noticing.

My eldest brother-in-law contacted the matchmaker and the blind date was set for the day after tomorrow.

Because they were not far away, Uncle Lu, who was worried, also went to see them.

The day after tomorrow, the three of them set out for Daxinzhuang early in the morning.

It took us more than half an hour to walk the seven or eight miles mountain road.

On the way, Father Lu did not forget to teach his daughter: "Er Gouzi, your twentieth birthday is getting closer and closer, you don't have much time!

So, be careful! Don't be picky and careless just because you often live in the city.

We farmers just need to marry and have daughters honestly. All men in the world are the same. As long as they are honest, hardworking and able to have children, that's enough.

You should talk less and listen more, and don't do anything stupid!"

Especially don’t fight in someone else’s home!

"Got it, Dad."

When she arrived at the Zhang family, Lu Yao seemed to understand why the Zhang family wanted her dowry.

Poor, even poorer than the Lu family.

The Lu family at least had three tiled houses, but the Zhang family had only mud houses.

But the Zhang family did not have many people, and there were few people in the yard. All the people were gathered in the main hall for the blind date. Lu Yao counted them and found that there were only eleven people in total, including the two elders and two husbands of the Zhang family.

The so-called two elders of the Zhang family are just a respectful title.

Zhang Xiaolangjun's parents are much younger than Lu Yao's parents.

Lu Yao's family has three generations living together. Her two married sisters each have their own husbands and have given birth to a large number of children, so the population has increased.

This Zhang family was probably separated from the rest of the family. The children in the family had just grown up and were beginning to discuss marriage.

Lu Yao looked at the group of relatives and friends opposite her. They were little kids about the same age as Lu Yi Shisi. There were two girls and one boy who looked older, probably around fifteen or sixteen.

So, that boy should be this blind date partner, Mr. Zhang.

Lu Yao looked at him, and her heart was as calm as still water, so calm that there was not even a ripple.

It is impossible for this world to be filled with handsome men and beautiful women. Most people have ordinary faces.

If life were a little worse, it would be a little rough in its ordinariness.

"Don't be picky. It's so hard to find a partner. Why are you still picky?" a voice in my heart seemed to shout.

But in Lu Yao's mind, Xie Jingran's image stubbornly appeared.

Exquisite facial features, beautiful face, elegant and calm demeanor, every frown and smile is captivating.

'Sure enough, when you're unmarried, you don't want to meet someone too amazing?

Otherwise, he would disturb my mind, and I would feel bored when I look at others.' Lu Yao thought quietly in her heart, and Song Yanyi's appearance suddenly appeared in her mind again.

Tall and majestic, with deep and strong facial features and a wild and uninhibited temperament, he is another type of handsome guy.

That's also her favorite type.

"Oh my god, what am I thinking about!" Lu Yao was frightened by her own thoughts.

In terms of appearance, Xie Jingran and Song Yanyi are both her types.

But these two, one is a nobleman from a prominent family, and the other is the son of the richest man, are they something a village girl like her can dream of?

"I was thinking about another man during a blind date, and the best man turned out to be me?! "

Lu Yao cursed herself secretly, quickly collected her thoughts, stopped thinking about them, and turned to look at her father and brother-in-law.

I was distracted too much just now and don’t know what everyone is talking about in this blind date?

"Haha, Zhang brothers, I've seen the children too, and they don't look bad.

Our two families live close to each other, and we feel relieved when our child marries here, so why don't we just settle the marriage this time?" Father Lu asked with a smile.

Lu Yao was shocked: How come this meeting happened so quickly?

Moreover, the other party's parents did not mention their past and did not ask any embarrassing questions, so it went so smoothly that she became a little suspicious.

Could it really work this time?

The most important event in her life was decided on such an ordinary day?

It seemed like she should be happy.

But why couldn't she be happy?

"Brother Lu," Zhang's father replied with a smile, "this marriage cannot be completed yet."

Lu Yao slapped her thigh: I knew it wouldn’t be that simple!
