After Jinzi's horseshoe was repaired, Zhou Mingshu did not stay any longer.

She has been out all day today, and her family must be missing her.

If you have nothing to do, go home early to avoid worrying your family.

"Sir, you should go to bed early. I will leave now."

Zhou Mingshu sat astride Jinzi, said hello to Qi Rui beside him, and ran away.

Qi Rui followed him to the intersection, then returned reluctantly.

When Zhou Mingshu arrived home, she found that her family members looked happy and there was no sign of worry as she had expected.

"Grandma, I'm back."

Old Mrs. Zhou was shaking the wheat. It had been drying in the sun for a whole day, and she was picking some out.

"Okay, I'm back. It's been hot outside all day. Go get some water and wash your face. There's watermelon in the kitchen. Remember to eat two pieces."

"it is good."

Zhou Mingshu placed the gold in the stable, added water and grass to it, and then went to clean himself up.

She first went back to the house, took down the hairpin and put it in the drawer for safekeeping.

It would be heartbreaking if she got such a precious thing bumped into or hit.

"Grandma, did something happen at home? Why do you look so happy?"

Zhou Mingshu took a piece of watermelon and sat on the stool to eat it.

"What else could it be? It's your brother's business. Today he met Lingshan and asked the girl. The girl nodded. He still has to go home and tell his parents. As long as his parents nod, your brother's business will be settled."

She paused and said, "Your uncle Cai said it was almost certain. How can I not be happy?"

Indeed, Zhou Mingshu was also very happy to hear it.

But these were all expected answers, so she wasn't surprised at all.

"By the way, why did you go to the county town? What did you do?"

Old Mrs. Zhou thought about this and stopped what she was doing and asked.

"Nothing special. I just had a meal at Magistrate Niu's house and walked around the garden with the Magistrate's wife."

"Is that so? That's good too. We didn't go to any dangerous places. We were just strolling around the garden at home?"

"Yes, the county magistrate has a lotus pond at home, and the lotus flowers are blooming beautifully. I even asked him for a few lotus seedlings, so that we can have lotus roots to eat next year."

Hearing this, Old Lady Zhou laughed out loud, "Girl, you think about food all day long, and you even set your sights on the county magistrate."

Zhou Mingshu hugged her arm and laughed.

"That can't be helped. The county magistrate has one. His wife is about your age and likes me very much. She asked me to spend more time with her, saying that she needs a granddaughter. Grandma, are you willing to let me go?"

"Hahaha, of course I'm willing to do that. I only have many granddaughters. It's okay if you go and don't come back."

"Grandma, you are so mean. You can bear to leave me, but I can't bear to leave you."

An old man and a child were laughing in the yard.

The fire in the kitchen happened to start and drifted away with the mountain wind.

After several days, almost all the wheat in the fields had been harvested and brought home.

All the helpers in the restaurant are now ready.

However, there was one person missing among the helpers today, Wang Youcai.

It was not a special holiday for him, but several nephews at home wanted to go back, so he borrowed the donkey cart from Lao Zhou's family to send them off, and he also wanted to ask his eldest brother-in-law's opinion.

If the other party is willing, the Zhou family will visit with gifts.

Wang Youcai would have said it anyway, and besides, the Zhou family had a good family background and good character, so there was no reason for the Xu family's brother-in-law to not respond.

What's more, my girl's face was blushing, and it was obvious that she was willing.

"That's fine. With my uncle's words, it's done. I can go back and report to them."

Wang Youcai paused and continued.

"Brother, you don't know that ever since the eldest daughter of the Zhou family got married, the matchmakers have been knocking on the door of the Zhou family. Fortunately, Lingshan of our family is capable and she and that boy fell in love with each other, otherwise such a good marriage would not be easy to get~"

Wang Youcai drank two cups of tea in the yard, praised Lao Zhou's house in every detail, and insisted on going back even though it was already mid-morning.

My daughter-in-law’s parents’ home is neither far nor near from Lianglin Village, and it’s fast to get there by driving a donkey cart.

But he didn't go to work today, so it would be better for him to go home early.

Anyway, he has said everything he needs to say and got the answer he deserves, so I won't keep bothering him.

When it comes to one's daughter's marriage, one has to discuss it carefully behind closed doors, right?

After saying goodbye to Wang Youcai, as soon as the Xu family closed the door, they began to discuss Xu Lingshan's marriage.

The little girl's face turned red with embarrassment and her palms were sweaty.

Old Mrs. Zhou originally thought that Youcai would not be back until the afternoon. During this period, everyone in the Zhou family was a little nervous, fearing that Lingshan's parents would not agree.

Unexpectedly, Wang Youcai came back just in time for lunch.

"Youcai, why are you back so early? I've already eaten. Hurry up and add another pair of chopsticks."

Wang Youcai didn't hesitate and sat down with a smile.

"I had something on my mind, and I wanted to fly over here to report to you. I couldn't stay there for even a moment, so I rushed back without stopping."

Everyone pricked up their ears to listen to what Wang Youcai said, but seeing his facial expression and various expressions, everyone had some idea in their minds.

This thing is most likely to be done.

"Aunt, I told you this can be done. My eldest brother-in-law and sister-in-law have both agreed. My mother-in-law and father-in-law have no objections. No one in the family is unwilling. You should just worry about preparing for Dazhi's engagement ceremony."

Your own guesses are not as reliable as other people's answers.

After Wang Youcai announced the confirmed news, everyone at the dinner table breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhou Mingzhi, in particular, suddenly relaxed his expression and choked on his food.

"Hahaha, good, good, good, my Dazhi is going to have a wife, it's worth being happy!"

Old Mrs. Zhou said "good" three times in a row happily. Finally, she had one less thing to worry about.

The next step is to go through the formalities. As long as nothing goes wrong, the granddaughter-in-law will be married to him.

"Xiao Lian, as your mother, you are in charge of your son's affairs. I won't interfere. Just come to me for the money you need."

"I understand, mother." Liu was so happy that tears welled up in the corners of her eyes.

Zhou Mingqi next to him patted his brother on the shoulder.

"Brother, you are awesome. You have been doing great things quietly. You have already arranged the most important things in your life without realizing it."

Zhou Mingqi's face was full of admiration.

Old Mrs. Zhou looked at her grandchildren at the dinner table. She thought that there would probably be no happy events in the next few years as the boys and girls had not grown up yet.

Even if there is a happy event, it will not happen to them.

"Youcai, you have made great contributions to Dazhi's matter. When the matter of these two children is settled, your gift as a matchmaker will definitely be indispensable."

Old Mrs. Zhou patted Wang Youcai's arm to reassure him.

Liu on the side also hurriedly said, "That's right, we have to give his uncle a richer wedding basket."
