In the 22nd year of Qianwu, Xia.

Donglin Kingdom, Zhannan County, Luofeng Village.

Luofeng Village is located in the south of Donglin State. It is geographically remote and the weather in August is still very hot.

At this moment, a luxurious carriage was driving slowly on the small road in the center of the village. After a while, it stopped in front of a small courtyard in the west.

The courtyard wall of this house is made of blue bricks, and the houses in the courtyard are all built of wood, except for the black tiles on the roof.

The courtyard wall is covered with plants, most of which are vegetables that can climb walls, such as loofah, lentils, zucchini, etc.

Now in the golden autumn season, the wall is already full of fruits, and just looking at it can make people feel the joy of harvest.

There are not many horse-drawn carriages in the village. For most families, owning an ox-drawn cart is enough to show off for a long time. Now that the busy farming season has just passed and it is noon, everyone has a little free time.

Seeing a luxurious carriage appear in the village, everyone couldn't help but wonder who it was looking for. So they followed it with curiosity.

After the carriage stopped in front of the courtyard gate, the curtain was lifted, and a middle-aged woman with a slightly plump figure came down. She was wearing a colorful skirt, a big red flower on her head, exaggerated rouge on her face, a pair of embroidered red shoes on her feet, a black mole on her chin, and a colorful figure.

After the woman got out of the car, she first looked around the yard with her shrewd eyes. Although she didn't show it on her face, she felt more appreciative of the yard in her heart.

Although this courtyard is not luxurious, it is unique and has a leisurely feeling of a paradise, which makes people feel happy when they see it.

She walked up to the dark wooden door and knocked on it.

"Who is it?" After a while, a gentle female voice came from inside, and the courtyard door was opened at the same time.

A middle-aged woman in plain clothes came out.

The woman standing outside saw this and said with a smile: "Sister, good things have happened to your family."

Bai Lifen, who was inside the courtyard, was confused when she heard this. Looking at the man's clothes, she instantly felt that the situation was not good.

So she stopped the person and didn't let her into the yard. Instead, she said, "Did you find the wrong person? No one in my family wants to propose marriage."

This person was dressed as a matchmaker, and you could tell what she was here for at first glance. However, no one in her family was getting married or talking about marriage recently.

Besides, the matchmaker in front of her looked a little unfamiliar, so she was unwilling to let her in.

When Matchmaker Qian saw that Bai Lifen wouldn't let her in, she twisted her body, pushed Bai Lifen aside, and walked into the yard on her own, saying, "I'm here to propose a marriage to your brother."

After saying this, she called out to the coachman behind her to bring in the betrothal gifts from the carriage.

The yard is very tidy. Some vegetables and flowers are planted in the front yard, and some mountain products are drying in the open space.

Mushrooms, walnuts, red dates, pickles, and some herbs.

Under the eaves of the courtyard, sat a middle-aged man, who was also dressed simply in a dark cotton robe with narrow sleeves. He was weaving a bamboo basket.

He was also confused when he saw the matchmaker coming in. His brother didn't seem to have any plans to get married recently, so why did the matchmaker come to their house?

Bai Lifen didn't stop the man, so she closed the door and walked into the yard.

The people who came outside to watch the excitement started talking about this situation.

"Is this for the Ning family's brother to propose marriage?"

"It looks like it is."

"I don't think I've seen the matchmaker this time."

"It does look a little unfamiliar. Do you think it will work this time?"
