After watching the excitement for a while, Dong Xiaohuan pulled a few people aside to ask. She learned that Jiang's father ran an escort agency and was a generous and righteous man, but he was often away from home. Jiang had a good temperament as a child, a well-behaved and lovely girl. However, one year, she was nearly kidnapped. Upon her return, she fell seriously ill, and her personality gradually changed.
But most people praised Jiang Niangzi, saying that although she had a bad temper, she was very reasonable, and if she was wrong, she would admit it quickly and with a good attitude. However, she was too impatient and her words were not very pleasant.
When the three of them returned home, Dong Xiaohuan frowned and pulled Xia Tian aside to ask, "Is Madam Tao the best? She has a good personality and is very patient."
Xia Tian didn't say anything. He actually found Jiang Niang's personality amusing. The girl was petite, but when she scolded someone, it was like exploding firecrackers, quite lively. But he didn't say it out loud. If he did, he would have guessed that Xia Chu was going to tease him. He shook his head, "Let's see first."
"What are you looking at?" Dong Xiaohuan said anxiously, "How old are you?"
"Mom, we still have to take a look. After all, it's my brother getting married, so she has to be to his liking." Xia Chu thought it would be better to take a closer look, and patted Dong Xiaohuan's back soothingly, "It doesn't matter if we take a little longer anyway."
"How can I see it? I can't go to see it every day, right?" Dong Xiaohuan said worriedly.
Xia Chu thought so too. Just as she was thinking about it, Cui Ya came out with tea. She looked at Cui Ya and had an idea. "There's no need to watch her every day. Cui Ya can go over there when she has nothing to do. She's just a little girl. It's useless for her to stay at home all day."
"Ah?" Cui Ya was stunned for a moment. Seeing everyone staring at her, her face flushed. "Where should I go?"
"I'm afraid that one person will be left without anyone to take care of him, so Cuihua will go with us. There's no need to keep a close eye on him, just ask about his character and family traditions." Xia Chu waved his hand and appointed two spies.
Xia Tian frowned, "Is there something wrong?"
Dong Xiaohuan's opinion was the same as Xia Chu's. "Which family wouldn't inquire carefully before getting married? We won't do anything, just observe carefully. This is a life-long event. Although I'm a little anxious, I'm also afraid that you'll make a mistake and blame me in the future."
After hearing this, Xia Tian said, "Mom, how could I blame you?"
"You won't blame me, but if things don't turn out the way they do now, and you don't live well, how can I be at peace?" Dong Xiaohuan thought of her younger brother. "Look at your uncle. For so many years, I've asked him to remarry, but he always refuses. I know he's afraid Dongdong will feel bad. Dongdong lost his mother at such a young age... I'm afraid too."
She sighed as she finished. Xiaomao had devoted himself to the shop, caring for his parents and Dongdong over the years, and had no intention of remarrying. Her mother had asked him many times and even asked her to persuade him, but Xiaomao was adamant and refused to budge. Whenever she asked, he said he had no such intentions and only wanted to spend the rest of his life with Dongdong.
Seeing that the atmosphere was not good, Xia Chu looked around and took Dong Xiaohuan's arm, "Mom, uncle has his own ideas. As long as he is happy, it doesn't matter whether he has a companion or not. Let's find out more about big brother's affairs. Good looks and family background are not important. The most important thing is that the temperament is compatible with big brother. As long as he is not too unreasonable, we won't become a couple with resentment."
Xia Tian bowed on the spot and said, "Yes, it's all thanks to my mother and sister."
His expression actually made Dong Xiaohuan smile. "Mom will definitely choose one carefully, and you can decide for yourself when the time comes. Mom won't force you, so if you really can't figure it out, just take your time. My son is good in every way, so how could he not find a good match?"
Xia Chu chuckled, "Not everything is good, I'm a bit old."
Dong Xiaohuan couldn't help laughing and patted Xia Chu lightly, "Nonsense, how are you old?"
Xia Tian felt a little itchy when he saw his sister's naughty look.
Cuihua and Cuiya got the task and went there every day whenever they had time. Dong Xiaohuan helped them recognize the people, and the matter was temporarily put aside.
Xia Chu was about to go back to Huizhou District with Jia Qingwu to celebrate the New Year, and Jia Qingwu sent a letter home. The Jia family was overjoyed, and Jia Sansi wrote to ask his sister to wait, and he would come to pick her up.
However, the person who came was not Jia Sansi. He was too busy clearing accounts at the end of the year and could not leave, so he asked his son to come.
Jia Junyang brought servants to guard the house, as well as three carts of New Year's goods, all for the Wang family. Jia Qingwu got along well with the Wang family, and the Jia family remembered her well, treating her like a real relative.
Before leaving Lin'an, Xia Chu went to her maternal grandfather's house to say goodbye. She also sent a letter to Zhao Huazhang, who put off other matters and came to say goodbye in the afternoon.
"You came back after the New Year, why did you come here in person?" Although she said so, Xia Chu was still very happy to see Zhao Huazhang.
The two of them didn't have dinner at home. They were now settled, and there wasn't much gossip when they met.
"When will you be back? Send me a message and I'll pick you up." Although they hadn't seen each other much during this period, it wasn't difficult for them to see each other. But after going to Huizhou, it wasn't so easy to see each other.
"My uncle should have someone send it to me." Xia Chu nibbled on the lamb chops. Seeing that Zhao Huazhang didn't move his chopsticks, he said, "I'll be back after the New Year. You can eat it."
"I want to pick you up." Zhao Huazhang looked at her, his voice soft but his tone firm.
Why is it so sticky? Xia Chu pursed her lips and smiled, "Okay, I'll give you the letter when the time comes. Can you leave?"
"Other things are naturally not as important as you." Zhao Huazhang said a love word with a serious expression.
Xia Chu couldn't even chew the lamb chops anymore. She felt that the lamb chops seemed to have suddenly become sweet. She curled her lips and said, "Eat quickly."
"Don't eat too much today, otherwise your stomach will feel uncomfortable." Zhao Huazhang saw her chewing two lamb chops and served her half a bowl of lamb soup.
Xia Chu was stunned. "How did you know? Did Cuihua let it slip?"
Zhao Huazhang shook his head and said, "Qingsong heard what Fifteen said. You called a doctor shortly after you returned that day."
"It's actually the fifteenth?" Xia Chu raised her eyebrows. She had even kept it a secret from Dong Xiaohuan, but she didn't expect Qingsong to find out.
Zhao Huazhang dragged the mutton pie to his side and only broke off half a piece for Xia Chu, "Why didn't you tell me?"
"How shameful." Xia Chu looked at the half cake with some dissatisfaction, feeling that he could eat at least two.
Zhao Huazhang calculated her food intake and would not allow her to eat until she was about 80% full. He ate the rest without any care.
Xia Chu supported her chin with her hand and looked at him with a smile. Zhao Huazhang ate quickly, but not voraciously.
Is there a filter? Xia Chu thought he looked very good while eating, and as she watched him, she couldn't help but want to tease him and reached out to touch the lamb chops secretly.
Zhao Huazhang grabbed her hand and raised his head, "You can't eat anymore."
Xia Chu deliberately showed a pitiful expression, wanting to see Zhao Huazhang's reaction, "But I'm not full yet, eat one last one."
Zhao Huazhang frowned, and it was obvious that he was in a dilemma. But when he met Xia Chu's eyes, he let go.
