Chapter 265: Families with daughters are very popular

The next morning, the sun had just risen, and golden sunlight shone on the spacious training ground.

When everyone on the training ground was concentrating on their morning exercises, an unexpected figure appeared in their field of vision - Yang Mingxi came to the training ground lightly and abruptly like a blooming flower.

The Yang brothers were still immersed in the intense and orderly training atmosphere. The moment they caught sight of Yang Mingxi, they dropped their movements without hesitation and rushed straight towards Lu Jintang. Regardless of whether they were training or not, they worked together to quickly carry Lu Jintang away from the spot.

As Yang Mingjiang dragged Lu Jintang forward quickly, he whispered, "You and Xier are getting married soon. According to our local rules, you can't see each other casually before the wedding! Otherwise, it will have a negative impact on your future life."

Upon hearing this, Lu Jintang was startled for a moment, but then he didn't put up much resistance or struggle. He simply glanced at Yang Mingxi, who was looking at him with a smile from a distance. Then, he suddenly reached out and grabbed the arms of the Yang brothers beside him, and sprinted away from the training ground like the wind.

Lu Jintang thought: Since I can't see the young wife I've been thinking about, I have to find a way to vent all this resentment.

Lu Jintang pulled a few people away from the training ground and without saying a word, he started fighting with these Yang brothers. He was agile and his moves were sharp, each of his moves contained endless power.

Faced with such a ferocious attack, the Yang brothers were able to hold out for a bit at first, but as time went on, they gradually began to lose their strength. Before long, they were all exhausted and in a state of disarray after being tormented by Lu Jintang.

Yang Mingxi, who had suddenly arrived at the training ground, was beaming with excitement. She placed her hands behind her back, tapping her feet alternately. In a clear, melodious voice, she announced an important order to everyone present: "From now on, anyone under the age of 15 will be given priority in assignments. However, once they turn 15, they must marry before any assignments can be made. As for those over 15, they must wait until they marry before any assignments can be made. Furthermore, everyone who marries will receive a five-liang (approximately ounces) silver betrothal gift!"

As soon as this order came out, the entire training ground exploded.

Those who already have fiancées and are planning to get married are naturally ecstatic and their excitement is beyond words.

And those who don’t have a fiancée, or even have no plans to get married, are really complaining.

For a moment, cheers and groans rose and fell on the training ground, interweaving into a unique melody.

Yang Mingxi stood in front of the training ground, his eyes slyly sweeping over the group of people below who were whispering and talking. He put his hand on his forehead, took a deep breath and spoke again: "Two months later, you will officially start the mission. However, who will be qualified to accept the mission depends entirely on your own efforts and performance! There are still two months left? It's more than enough for you to get married." After speaking, Yang Mingxi waved his hand decisively, then turned and left. His handsome back seemed as free and easy as if he had not taken away a trace of clouds.

As the morning training came to an end, the entire Changshan Village instantly became lively.

The women in the village were like a group of busy bees, each taking action.

Those families who have girls waiting to be married anxiously recall the people who participated in the training, trying to pick out the most suitable son-in-law from them.

They may communicate with their families about their opinions on a certain boy; or they may be alone, recalling the target person and secretly evaluating his or her conditions.

Women without daughters of marriageable age were also busy. They hurried to the homes of relatives with daughters of marriageable age, eager to pass on the great news. Along the way, their mouths were like machine guns, talking non-stop about this rare opportunity and the various benefits it might bring, afraid of missing any key information.

The women whose sons happened to be in the training group were even more excited. They immediately began to search for marriages for their beloved sons. After all, if they could successfully find a suitable daughter-in-law at this time, not only would they save a considerable amount of money on the bride price, but they would also be able to have her help with household chores and farm work, giving their sons something to do ahead of time. How could such a win-win-win situation not be so tempting?

In an instant, these women tried their best to inquire around and make connections, fearing that if they were a little slow, those outstanding girls would be snatched up by other families first.

For a time, the entire Changshan Village was filled with a festive and bustling atmosphere, with competitions for marriages quietly taking place. Families with daughters, especially those of marriageable age, suddenly became highly sought after, with matchmakers crowding the doorstep.

The most typical example in Changshan Village is the Wan family. Wan Erya is 16 years old, and Wan Sanya is 15, both of marriageable age. In one day, five families came to propose marriage, and the Wans' parents were completely exhausted.

The same situation applies to other families with daughters.

Ever since Uncle Wu said that last night, he has been thinking about going back to talk to his wife and brother's wife about his nephew's marriage. In addition, with the order given by Yang Mingxi today, more people are ready to propose marriage, making it even harder to find a wife.

Uncle Wu hurried over to Mrs. Wu, his face filled with anxiety and anticipation. He panted and said, "Youyou, I'm really going to trouble you for a big favor this time! Please keep an eye out for me and see if there's any girl in your village who's suitable for our boy. If there is, you must hurry up and help set up a match and go to her house to get her engaged as soon as possible! As for me, I have to set off right now to rush home and quickly call your sister-in-law and your sister-in-law to get them to act right away. Oh, whether our Wu family can hold a chubby little granddaughter sooner or not, it all depends on this!"

After hearing what her eldest brother said, Wu smiled and responded, "Oh, big brother, I've been keeping this in mind! Now, after some careful observation and inquiries, I've actually found two or three very good candidates! You'll have to help me with some advice!"

When Uncle Wu heard this, he immediately became energetic, his eyes instantly became bright and sparkling with excitement, and he couldn't wait to ask, "Really? Then tell me who they are, sister, tell me quickly!"

Seeing this, Mrs. Wu couldn't help but smile and said, "The first choice is Wan Erya! She's the second sister of Ayang's wife. This girl is just 16 years old this year. She is so beautiful and has a gentle and well-behaved personality. I think if she were to be betrothed to Youxi, we would be a perfect match made in heaven! What do you think?"

Then, Wu enthusiastically continued to introduce them, "Let's talk about the second girl. She's the second daughter of the Tang family, named Tang Qiuxiang. She's already 17 years old this year, and she's grown into a beautiful young lady. She's also clever and considerate. I'm thinking if she could marry Yougui from our family, her life would be prosperous! What do you think, brother?"

Finally, Mrs. Wu paused for a moment, a satisfied smile on her face, and then she slowly said, "As for Youfu, after all, he is the eldest son and grandson of our family, so naturally we have to have higher requirements for his wife! So, I thought of Mei Tingting from the Mei family. She is Mei Tingzhou's elder sister, and she is also 17 years old this year. This girl is not only dignified and beautiful, but also well-educated, beautiful and intelligent. Brother, do you think she is qualified for Youfu of our family?" After speaking, Mrs. Wu looked at Uncle Wu expectantly, waiting for him to give his opinion.
