The arrogant little husband is desperately flirting with the hunter

Xiao Yuer was taken out by Chu Xiao, and Yan Zhengdao also planned to go to the village to play chess with his old friends. Before leaving, he even looked through the almanac.

"I haven't won a game of chess in a while. I need to see which direction is auspicious today."

Zhao Guizhi was making tiger-head shoes for Xiao Yuer. Hearing this, she glared at Yan Zhengdao in anger and said, "It's just a game of chess. It's not like you're betting on a house or a piece of land. What's the big deal about winning or losing?"

"It's okay to lose a game occasionally, but if you keep losing, people will laugh at you for being a bad chess player." Yan Zhengdao chuckled, "If I'm criticized, you'll also lose face."

"I don't need you to earn that useless face for me." Having said this, Zhao Guizhi put down the work in her hands and came over to look through the almanac together.

"Today is still a good day, everything goes well." Zhao Guizhi didn't know the other characters, but she knew the big "Ji" (good luck).

"Life is not good, so why would the Gu family choose today to propose marriage?" Yan Zhengdao pointed to the small words below with a smile: "Zhengxi, I will kill those old guys without leaving a single piece of armor."

As the two were talking, they heard someone knocking on the door, followed by a woman's loud shout: "Is Mr. Yan and Mrs. Yan home?"

Zhao Guizhi heard the noise and went out to see what was going on. She didn't dare to approach the dozen or so strangers. She stood at a distance with a wary look on her face: "What's the matter?"

The woman who knocked on the door smiled and said, "Oh, Madam Yan, don't be afraid. We are from the He Mansion in the county. It was thanks to your adopted son Dean Qiao and your second son Carpenter Yan that my young master was injured. We came here today to thank you."

After the old woman finished speaking, she quickly stepped back and let He's mother go to the front: "This is our Madam He."

Mother He nodded slightly and raised a charitable smile: "I'm sorry for coming here intrusively."

When Zhao Guizhi saw He's mother's face, she knew who she was, but she also couldn't understand why these people came here.

To say that it was because Qiao Qingyun and Yan Zhennan sent the person to the clinic, that is absolutely impossible. After all, Mr. He was injured out of kindness for her third sister.

If we really want to thank someone, it should be the Yan family thanking the He family.

"Please come in and sit down." No matter what the reason was, Zhao Guizhi still had to show courtesy, and quickly invited the person into the house.

After exchanging some greetings, Yan Sanmei came out to pour tea for everyone. Listening to He's mother's praises of her, her little face slowly turned red.

"I'm sorry to come here today because I have something important to discuss with you two."

As soon as Yan Sanmei heard this, she knew that the matter might be related to her, so she quickly left under the pretext of going to the kitchen to boil water.

Zhao Guizhi also suddenly felt a little embarrassed. She clenched her hands and stared at He's mother opposite her without blinking.

"Mrs. Yan, I'm a few years older than you. Is it okay to call you Big Sister?"

"Ah, of course, of course." Zhao Guizhi, whose heart was in her throat, was suddenly interrupted by He's mother. Instead of feeling relaxed, she became even more nervous.

But she herself couldn't tell whether she was worried about her daughter getting married or not being able to get married.

"Brother Yan, big sister, I'm a straightforward person, so I won't beat around the bush with you. You all know that my boy has always liked your Xiaoxi and is even willing to marry into her family."

"I wanted to find a matchmaker to propose marriage today, but I was afraid that if I did it in a big way, your family would not be interested in my boy, and it would also be a loss of face for both our families."

"No, no." Yan Zhengdao had never dealt with women from such wealthy families before, so his smile seemed a little unnatural.

"Alas, Brother Yan, Sister, as a mother, I know you two are reluctant to let Xiaoxi marry, but my family has kept his father and refused to let him marry into the family no matter what. They are not afraid of being embarrassed if it is revealed. There has not been a scholar in their He family for dozens of generations. It is not easy to have someone who passed the imperial examination. They are counting on him to bring honor to the family."

"I came here shamelessly today just to see if there is a way to have the best of both worlds?"

Having said this, He's mother looked at Yan Zhengdao and Zhao Guizhi with anticipation.

Zhao Guizhi could understand He's mother's thoughts. After all, she also had a son. If one of them really suddenly said he wanted to marry into another family, she would probably not be able to accept it for a while.

But her third sister...

She had been talking about finding a live-in son-in-law for a long time, but now she suddenly had to marry him off. It was inevitable that she felt a little disappointed, and Zhao Guizhi really couldn't bear to let him go.

Seeing that Zhao Guizhi seemed to be hesitant to speak, He's mother spoke again, "Big sister, you have also met my eldest daughter, Changliu. Although she is a scholar, she is simple-minded and even has a childish mind. Xiaoxi is a girl with her own ideas and courage. Don't worry, if the two children get married, we, the parents-in-law, will definitely not point fingers at the young couple's life. It is also feasible to find a better house for them to live alone."

At this point, He's mother seemed to suddenly think of something, and her eyes lit up instantly: "I see that your yard is quite spacious. If Brother Yan and Sister Yan are really worried about Xiaoxi, why not let Xiaoxi choose a place nearby to build a house, so that you can see it and feel at ease. As for us, we can just go back and have dinner from time to time."

He's mother thought this was a great idea. Anyway, that brat He Changliu had no intention of living with them after he got married. Instead of spending hundreds of taels to buy a house in the county, it would be better to build a big yard in the village.

Not only did he save hundreds of taels of silver, but his son was still his son, and he could just out of sight and out of mind. It really was killing three birds with one stone.

If this was the case, Zhao Guizhi was inevitably moved. She hesitated for a moment before saying, "Sister He, although it has always been said that parents decide marriages, I always feel that marriage is a matter that affects a child's entire life. I have to ask Xiaoxi's opinion. Besides, the boys in my family love their sister very much. We have to wait for Xiaoxi's brothers to come back to discuss it."

"Of course, of course." It is said that if one family has a daughter, hundreds of families will seek her out. Isn't this the case with marriage proposals? How can it be said that the other party will agree immediately once the man opens his mouth?

Of course, the man has to propose several times to show his sincerity, and also to let the man see how much the girl's family values ​​her.

Mother He drank a few more sips of tea and didn't stay any longer. She left with a group of servants, smiling.

Zhao Guizhi watched the carriage go farther and farther away, then turned around and looked at the yard, the corners of her mouth twitching uncontrollably.

"Is it appropriate for us to collect so many things like this?"

Yan Zhengdao's thoughts were in a mess at the moment, and he didn't even have the heart to go out and play chess. No one was at home at the moment, so the two old men could only sit there and stare blankly.

"It's not a good idea to return it." Yan Zhengdao sighed, "How about we take a look at what we have, estimate the number, and find a chance to return it later?"

"That's fine." Zhao Guizhi nodded repeatedly: "We have to figure it out clearly. We can't let Third Sister be looked down upon by her husband's family."

Yan Sanmei, who was washing cups in the kitchen: “…” She just said she wanted to discuss it, but now she’s talking about her in-laws?
