Then he looked at Matchmaker Qian and said, "Let's go inside and talk."

Upon hearing this, Matchmaker Qian immediately turned around happily and walked into the yard.

Bai Lifen helped Ning Ruo back home, and Ning Chengyong simply closed the gate of the courtyard, isolating the people who were watching the excitement outside.

There were a few quiet discussions outside the door.

"If the Ning family agrees to this marriage, they will become very prosperous."

"That's right. This is what they call one person's success brings prosperity to the whole family. Maybe the whole family will move to the county town in the future."

At a corner not far from Ning Yan's house, someone peeked in the direction of their house, then quickly left and returned to his own yard.

In the living room, several people sat down one after another. Ning Yan asked directly, "Tell me, why did you choose me?"

Matchmaker Qian didn't expect Ning Yan to be so direct. After a pause, she raised her hand and waved her handkerchief, saying with a smile:

"What else could it be? Of course it's because Brother Jian is handsome and hardworking. He's well-known in this area for being filial to his parents and loving to his brothers. Where else can you find such a good person?

The wife of our county magistrate also took a fancy to your qualities, so she gave such a large betrothal gift and married you as the eldest daughter-in-law and the legal husband.

She also said that as long as you agree to marry her, your brother can go directly to the academy in the county to study.

By then, there will be a special teacher to take care of his studies, and your parents can be brought to live in the county town. They will find a satisfactory job for your parents, which will earn much more than farming in the countryside, and they won't have to work so hard. "

After hearing this, Ning Yu frowned and said seriously, "Don't talk nonsense. We want to hear the truth. I won't sell out my brother for the chance to study."

Upon hearing this, the Ning couple nodded unconsciously, and they did the same.

Ning Jian glanced at Ning Lu and thought: It was not in vain that I raised this younger brother.

Matchmaker Qian was a little surprised to see that the family was so united in their opinions. She didn't expect that the family doted on this boy so much.

Then she continued with a smile, "The eldest son of the county magistrate's family is only 19 years old, one year older than Brother Jian. He is naturally handsome and has an extraordinary appearance.

He passed the Tongsheng exam a few years ago and is preparing to take the Xiucai exam next year. Once he passes, your brother will be a true Xiucai husband."

After hearing this, the family of three looked at Ning Jian tacitly. It sounded like the conditions were pretty good, and they wondered what Jian Ge'er (brother) thought.

Ning Yan ignored the gazes of his family, slammed the table, looked at Matchmaker Qian and said coldly, "Tell the truth."

It's not that he feels inferior and doesn't think he's worthy of the eldest son of the county magistrate's family, but this matter is really weird.

People in ancient times had a very strong sense of class. As for the position of the eldest son and the legal husband of the county magistrate, there were many people in the county who wanted to curry favor with him. At the very least, there were families of equal status who would marry him. How could it be his turn as a farmer's boy to take the position?

He doesn't believe that there is no trick here.

Everyone present was startled by his sudden action and powerful aura, and their hearts skipped a beat.

Ning Yu patted his chest and comforted himself: My brother's aura is too strong, but fortunately it is not directed at me.

The Ning couple had become accustomed to their brother's temper. Although they were startled, their expressions quickly returned to normal.
