Wang Po was stunned. This really stumped her. She knew that although Xiaoyu's family was also a farmer, she was Zhou's treasure.

Zhou had a daughter in her old age and doted on her like the apple of her eye. Her brothers drank liquid food, while Xiaoyu ate solid food. She didn't have to do any housework at home. When her clothes got dirty, her sisters-in-law would wash them, not to mention lighting the fire, cooking, and feeding the pigs and ducks.

Although she was not as well-served as the rich young ladies in town by maids, she was also well-informed.

Look at the Yun family. Although the Yun couple are capable and can send their five sons to school, they live in an adobe house and eat steamed buns made from wild vegetables.

Although the eldest son of the Yun family is handsome and can read, it is said that it is not easy to pass the examination to become a scholar or a jinshi. Some people remain a student their entire life. Not everyone is destined to pursue a career in officialdom.

Zhou said that her daughter Xiaoyu would not marry an ordinary farmer, but at least a rich farmer, and she had to eat both white and dry food. She didn't have to have meat every meal, but she had to taste fishy food every now and then.

Wang Po originally thought that since the Yun family could send their five sons to school, their food would not be too bad no matter how poor the family was. However, she did not expect that the Yun family would also eat wild vegetable porridge.

Well, she'd better not get involved in this mess. The Yun family is not suitable for Xiaoyu.

Seeing that Wang Po was silent, Liu said, "Sister Wang, you should go and ask clearly, is Xiaoyu willing to come to our house and suffer?"

Wang Po opened her mouth, but didn't know how to answer.

It was her fault for taking on this matchmaking job without finding out more about the Yun family's situation.

If she agreed to it, and Xiaoyu found out that the Yun family was not as respectable as they seemed, the matchmaking would probably not be successful, and the reputation that Wang Po had worked so hard to build would also be damaged.

She couldn't admit that there was no matchmaking in this world that she, Wang Po, couldn't arrange.

"Well, Sister Liu, just pretend I didn't come here today."

Just as Yun Zhiqian and Yun Fu were about to enter the door, they ran into Wang Po who was rushing out and almost bumped into her.

Wang Po raised her head and glanced at Yun Zhiqian, with surprise flashing in her eyes.

The child of this farmer's family grew up like this, he must have been born into the wrong family. If he was born in a wealthy family, with his looks and figure, he could be married to a rich girl, or even a princess of the royal family.

What a pity, what a pity!

No wonder Xiaoyu, who is so picky, fell in love with him at first sight.

When he lowered his head and saw Yun Fu, who was held by Yun Zhiqian's hand, his eyes were filled with even more surprise. The children of the Yun family were all so good-looking.

Yun Zhiqian and Yun Fu were confused by Wang Po's gaze.

After Wang Po left, the two of them went into the house together.

Unexpectedly, when I entered the room, there was someone sitting in the room.

As the two entered the house, Li Po also looked up at them. She looked at Yun Zhiqian and asked, "Is this the boss?"

Liu said, "Qian'er, come and meet Aunt Li."

Since the guests are here, Yun Zhiqian politely bowed and said, "Auntie Li."

Li Po usually acts as a matchmaker in the village. She has acted as so many matchmakers and has met so many men, but in terms of appearance, Yun Zhiqian is one of the best.

The real owner had also seen it, and she nodded with satisfaction.

She turned around and said to Liu: "The Zhao family said that Yingzi is not afraid of hardship or hardship, nor is she afraid of eating coarse food. As long as she is a decent person and does not make their daughter angry, it will be fine."

Liu said, "Please rest assured. Our family is simple and we can guarantee that our daughter will not be bullied when she comes to our house."

"Okay, then I'll go back to the Zhao family."

Liu stood up and said, "Then I'll trouble Sister Li to make the trip."

Mrs. Li stood up and waved her hand, saying, "As I should, as I should."

After Mrs. Li left, Yun Zhiqian said, "Mother, I have no intention of getting married for the time being."

Having said that, Yun Zhiqian still had some desire for this as he was just beginning to understand the relationship between men and women.

The matchmaker also said that the girl was willing to endure hardships with him, and he was very satisfied.

Liu looked at him and said, "You know everything?"

"I just walked to the door with my sister and heard your conversation."

Liu sighed and said, "Qian'er, now that you know, tell me what you think."

Yun Zhiqian blushed and said, "Mom, I'm still young, it's too early for me to get married."

Liu sighed. She didn't want to do it either, but Qian'er was the eldest, with four younger brothers following him. He was only two years older than Zhang'er, so she had to deal with one as soon as possible. Otherwise, if the eldest didn't get married, how would the younger brothers find marriages in the future?

Even if he has no intention of getting married, it would be a good idea to settle down first. Then they can get married in two years when they have more money.

"Qian'er, let's meet her first. Marry a virtuous woman. Yingzi is a good girl."

Liu also heard it from Cheng, and she believed that Cheng would not lie to her.

Yun Zhiqian couldn't refute his mother, so he had to agree first.

Yun Fu looked at his elder brother's reaction and thought that his elder brother was not averse to matters between men and women at that time. He didn't know when he started to hate women.

"Then let's meet some other day?"

Yun Zhiqian nodded.

Only then did Liu breathe a sigh of relief. She was still worried that Qian'er was too arrogant and looked down on country women.

With their family's current financial situation, it would be good enough if they could find wives for their sons. Liu was really afraid that this would delay the marriages of her sons.

"Okay, mother, take on more embroidery work in the future to save up some betrothal gifts for our Qian'er."

Liu said this and went out.

Hearing his mother say this, Yun Zhiqian felt a little guilty and suddenly gave up the idea of ​​getting married.

It’s all because of him getting married, which seems to make my mother even more tired.

If the shop can really make some money, my mother won't have to stay up late to do embroidery by lighted lamps.

Thinking of this, Yun Zhiqian secretly made a plan for himself to dig up the cellar and store ice as soon as possible.

He did what he said. He went back to his room, changed into a short coarse cloth shirt, and went to the yard.

Seeing Liu digging the ground with a hoe in the yard, he asked, "Mother, what are you digging for?"

Liu said, "I want to plant some vegetables on this vacant land. Your aunt Cheng gave me some vegetable seeds today. If you have time, come with me to plant some vegetables on this vacant land."

Other families have fields, but the Yun family is the only one in Xiling Village who has no fields. They bought this house after they came to Xiling Village.

The original owner built a brick and tile house, so this house was no longer habitable, so the Yun family bought this house after they came.

Fortunately, the yard is big enough. If we grow some vegetables in it, it will be enough for the Yun family to eat for a while.

"Mom, stop growing vegetables. I have a use for this place."
