"Invite the three of you."

The waiter gestured to invite them inside the teahouse, and Song Jinbao led Song Yuntang and his sister in.

At this time, the Wu family father and son have not arrived yet.

Matchmaker Zhou asked the three to sit down and poured each of them a cup of tea.

"Dongming Village is quite far from Cile Town, and it's not the agreed time yet. Please wait a little longer."

Song Jinbao waved his hand and said, "It's okay, we came a little early, I understand."

Song Yuntang drank the tea in front of him while looking around. This teahouse was quite large, with two floors, the upper floor was for private rooms and the lower floor was for dining.

Maybe because it was morning, there were not many customers.

Matchmaker Zhou didn't order anything else, just a pot of tea, so the waiter in the teahouse didn't come over here very often.

The Wu family father and son arrived two quarters of an hour earlier than the agreed time.

When he saw the father and his two sons already seated, a hint of surprise flashed across his face.

Father Wu reacted quickly and looked at Song Jinbao with an apologetic look on his face, "My dear relative, I'm so sorry. The journey was a long one and I'm late."

Everyone hurriedly stood up.

Song Jinbao smiled and said, "Don't blame me, brother. We arrived too early."

Father Wu quickly pulled Wu Wei over and introduced him to the others, "This is my son Wu Wei. I want to extend my regards to you all on his behalf."

He was clearly present, but he still asked others to say hello on his behalf, which made everyone feel confused, but they did not ask any more questions for a while.

Matchmaker Zhou quickly gave up his seat.

"Come on, come on, both of you, please sit down."

The tea table was not big, with only four seats. Seeing this, Song Jinyuan tactfully stood up and stood behind his father, giving his seat to the Wu father and son.

The four of them took their seats.

Opposite Song Jinbaozheng was Wu's father, and opposite Song Yuntang was Wu Wei.

Song Yuntang sat in her seat with confidence. Wu Wei looked in her direction and was so inferior that he didn't even dare to raise his head.

Father Wu looked at Song Yuntang and was very satisfied with his future daughter-in-law.

As expected of someone from a big family, he has good manners and is generous. In comparison, my own son is a little inferior.

"Last time after my wife came home from Rongshu Village, she kept praising Miss Song at home. After meeting her today, Miss Song is indeed dignified and generous."

Song Jinbao laughed happily when his daughter was praised.

"You are so kind, my dear. Our Tang'er is great in every way, except that he has never suffered any grievances since he was a child. Now that he has come to the Wu family, I hope you will bear with him."

Although Wu Wei is a man of few words, he seems to be an honest person. At least his daughter will not suffer any loss in front of such a person.

Father Wu said hurriedly, "Of course. We only have Wei'er as our child. When Miss Song comes to the Wu family, she will be like our own daughter. How could we not care about our own daughter?"

Song Jinbao was very satisfied after hearing this and nodded repeatedly.

Song Yuntang cleared his throat and leaned close to him to remind him in a low voice.

"Dad, we haven't even started yet, so stop talking."

Song Jinbao understood what Song Yuntang meant and turned to look at Wu Wei. "Why doesn't our future son-in-law say a word? Is he shy after seeing our Tang'er?"

Wu Wei glanced in Song Jinbao's direction and smiled awkwardly.

Father Wu glanced in the direction of his son, then looked at Song Jinbao with an apologetic look, "Actually, there is one thing we did hide before."

Song Jinbao regained his seriousness and said, "Brother, please speak."

"Our child, Wei, was well-behaved and sensible since childhood, just like any other child. But at the age of nine, after a high fever, he suddenly became aphasic and has been unable to speak ever since." Father Wu sighed. "We didn't tell anyone before because we always thought it was curable, but we just hadn't found a good doctor."

Song Yuntang understood that this was Wu Wei's problem.

Zhou, the matchmaker standing by, beat his chest and stamped his feet after hearing this. "Oh, that's not what you told me before. Didn't you say Wu Wei was just bad at speaking? You're trying to trick me to death."

Looking at Song Jinbao's cold face, Father Wu became less and less confident as he spoke, and could only apologize with a smile.

"I hope you won't be angry, brother. If you mind, forget about this marriage. After all, we were the ones who kept it a secret in the first place."

Looking at his father's cautious look, Wu Wei felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

In recent years, the family has arranged several marriages through matchmakers, but people in the nearby areas all know about his problems, and no girl is willing to marry him. After that, his parents turned their attention to other villages.

I didn't expect that this girl from another village was also a weirdo. I have to meet him in person before I can make a decision.

If his family hadn't been anxious, he wouldn't have wanted to come.

Before Song Jinbao could say anything, Song Jinyuan behind him had already lost his patience.

"What do you mean? He can't speak?" He looked at his father with some anger on his face and said, "Dad, please say something. We can't let our sister down."

Song Jinbao was also angry about their concealment, but since Wu's father had apologized so humbly, and they were all parents, it was naturally not appropriate for them to poke at other people's sore spots.

"In this matter, it is indeed my brother's family who made the mistake first. They were not honest about the marriage proposal. I think there is no need to continue with the subsequent matters."

My daughter has healthy hands and feet, is beautiful and capable, so she certainly cannot marry a mute.

This was the expected result, but both the father and the son looked disheartened.

Now that the other party doesn't want to continue discussing this marriage, they have nothing to say.

"Tang'er, let's go."

Song Jinbao said this and stood up.

However, Song Yuntang did not move. She looked at Wu's father who was sitting to her right. "It's not that I dislike Wu Wei for having aphasia, but you guys concealed it first. Now that the marriage is not going well, it will definitely not be successful."

Then he said, "But I know some medical knowledge. If Uncle Wu can trust me, I might be able to treat Wu Wei's muteness."

Father Wu glanced in the direction of Wu Wei, then turned to look at Song Yuntang.

"really?"

Song Yuntang nodded, "Of course, it's just the consultation fee..."

Father Wu slammed the table and said, "As long as the young lady can cure our Wu Wei's muteness, we are willing to pay the medical expenses!"

Although he didn't know the ability of the girl in front of him, he didn't care about that. As long as there was a chance, he was willing to try.

"Okay." Song Yuntang looked at Wu Wei, "Are you completely unable to make any sound?"

Seeing that Wu Wei didn't answer her question, Song Yuntang continued, "If you don't answer me, I can't treat you. I believe you also want to return to normal as soon as possible, right?"

Since he was normal before the age of nine, he must have been able to speak. Even if his vocal cords and brain nerves were damaged, he could at least speak in a breathy voice, although his voice would be very low.

Perhaps it was the inferiority complex he felt after losing his voice that led to the current situation.
