Reborn as a devoted sister-in-law, she leads the entire village to prosperity.

"It's alright, it's alright. Even if your uncle is drunk, he won't talk nonsense, and it won't get out." Yu Hongyu didn't seem to care much.

"Xiaxia, if these things really bring in money in the future, your uncle will share them with you."

“That’s great. Then I’ll draw some blueprints for my uncle so he can make a lot of money quickly, find employees and take on apprentices, and I can just sit at home and collect money.”

Yu Banxia's greedy appearance made Yu Hongyu burst into laughter.

Just then, Mrs. Wu walked in and saw her youngest son laughing like that. She couldn't help but ask curiously, "What's wrong? Why are you laughing like that?"

"It's alright, it's alright, Mom. You were right back then. Xiaxia is truly our family's lucky star."

"This new brain is really useful. She just told me something, and I think it's feasible. I'm planning to share the money with her when we make some money in the future."

Hearing Yu Hongyu say that, Wu couldn't help but laugh out loud: "You little rascal, you haven't even started doing anything yet, and you're already starting to coax your little niece."

“Mother, it really works.” Yu Hongyu emphasized again. Wu Shi was also curious. Could it be that he had really said something serious?

Yu Banxia chuckled, then said to Yu Hongyu, "Uncle, I'll leave this matter to you. I'm going to town with my third brother, and we'll also visit my eldest sister in Xiaozhang Village."

"Okay, go ahead. Your uncle will try to get it done for you within three days." Yu Hongyu was full of confidence.

Ms. Wu looked on with suspicion. What kind of riddle were these two, uncle and nephew, playing?

"Grandma, I'm going to town now. I'll bring you something delicious when I come back," Yu Banxia said happily.

Mrs. Wu affectionately patted her bottom: "Do you think Grandma is a little glutton like you?"

"Okay, it's because my granddaughter is craving it and can't wait to go to town," Yu Banxia said coquettishly.

Mrs. Wu laughed heartily and said, "Alright, go ahead."

Yu Banxia jogged home; she had already told her parents about it while having breakfast that morning.

She was going to town to sell ginseng and would also deliver the meat she had saved from yesterday to her older sister, Yu Bantao.

"Third brother, elder sister, we can set off now!" Yu Banxia ran home and called out to her older brother and sister inside the house.

The two came out quickly. Yu Banyue was carrying a bamboo basket with meat and two pig's trotters to take to her older sister, as well as some braised food that she had made yesterday.

"Father, Mother, we'll be leaving now. Sister-in-law, I'll bring you some delicious food when I get back." Yu Banxia waved happily to her family.

Wu Zhuxiang nodded with a smile; she was feeling increasingly at ease.

This morning, my sister-in-law said she found a wild ginseng yesterday and was going to sell it to pay for Xiaohuzi's tuition. She was completely bewildered.

After seeing Yu Banxia and her two siblings off, Wu Zhuxiang quickly got to work.

The weather was nice today, so she went into Yu Banxia's room, took apart their bedding, washed it, and hung it out to dry in the yard.

The weather was already getting warmer in early April. She wiped the sweat from her forehead but didn't feel tired at all. With new hope for the future, how could she not be happy?

Just as Yu Banxia and her two siblings boarded the oxcart to Yunshan Town, the Xu family from Xiaoxu Village also hired a matchmaker from the village and brought some meager gifts, heading towards the Yu family's home.

Wu Zhuxiang was humming a little tune, washing up in a very good mood.

Fan Cuilan was holding her four-year-old granddaughter Xia Lian and feeding her.

"Hey, Auntie, busy?" A slightly jarring voice suddenly came from the front door.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law looked up at the same time and were startled to see a woman with a large flower in her hair and heavy makeup peeking in.

After recognizing that it was Ge, the matchmaker from Xiaoxu Village, and seeing Ji Shi and Xu Xiucai entering with smiles, he suddenly felt that the courtyard was dirty.

When Yu Meihua's mother, Zhao, heard the noise, she also came out. She was also taken aback when she saw that Xu Xiucai and his mother had brought a matchmaker to their door.

He then took the bowl and went to the Yu family's house, intending to watch the excitement and lend a hand.

"Matchmaker Ge, what brings you here?" Fan Cuilan's expression was not good, and Wu Zhuxiang's face also darkened instantly.

He wiped his hands and picked up Xia Lian from his mother-in-law's lap.

"Oh, Auntie, today is a joyous occasion, why do you look so unhappy?" Matchmaker Ge was also surprised, wasn't the youngest daughter of the Yu family always hoping to become the bride of Scholar Xu?

Seeing her accompany Xu Xiucai and his mother to arrange a marriage, shouldn't one be happy?

Why is this the attitude?

Matchmaker Ge went out to arrange a marriage yesterday and wasn't in the village, so she doesn't know about Yu Banxia calling Xu Xiucai a dog.

No one told her about this. Early in the morning, Madam Ji came to her door and asked her to arrange a marriage. She followed without saying a word.

"What good news? My youngest son has no plans to get married for the time being, and my two daughters are still young, so we're not planning to arrange marriages for them either."

Fan Cuilan didn't give the matchmaker a chance to speak and directly refused.

"Oh? But hasn't your little daughter always hoped to marry Scholar Xu and become his bride?"

"This scholar Xu invited me to his home today to discuss this marriage. Auntie, you should be happy."

"This scholar Xu will soon be taking the imperial examination. If he passes with flying colors and becomes a Juren (a successful candidate in the provincial examination), how far is he from becoming the Zhuangyuan (the top scholar in the imperial examination)?"

Matchmaker Ge genuinely didn't know what was going on and blurted out whatever came to mind.

“My Xiaxia has never thought of becoming Xu Xiucai’s bride. This marriage is not for our family.” Wu Zhuxiang couldn’t hold back any longer. Holding her child, she stepped forward and pushed the man away.

Matchmaker Ge was also unhappy. What was wrong with the new bride of the Yu family? How could she push someone away?

"Hey, sister-in-law, does your Banxia know you're ruining her plans like this?"

Upon hearing this, Wu Zhuxiang became even angrier. They had just started to have some good days ahead and were looking forward to something.

This Xu scholar pulled this stunt. He never came to her house, not even early in the morning or late at night. Just when Xiaxia had finally changed her mind, he came and caused this mess.

Wu Zhuxiang was furious and anxious. If Xiaxia found out about this, would things turn out the same as before?

Fan Cuilan was actually a little hesitant. She was a soft-hearted person by nature, and her retort just now was because she was angry about Xu Xiucai's past attitude.

Hearing what the matchmaker said, she began to hesitate.

"Then let me tell you, my Xiaxia will not marry." Wu rushed over and shouted loudly at the matchmaker, Ge.

When the matchmaker, Ge, looked at Wu, she couldn't help but shrink back.

She had once introduced a mentally challenged woman to Yu Banxia's uncle, but she was verbally abused by Madam Wu, who almost stormed into her house.

So when she saw that Ms. Wu had arrived, the matchmaker, Ms. Ge, was still a little intimidated.

Xu Xiucai was also surprised that the Yu family would react this way after he had condescended to do so, which made him even angrier.

But he put on a perfect show, bowing and greeting everyone present.

"Grandma Yu, I know that my previous hesitation was wrong."

"Miss Yu and I are quite compatible. Previously, Sister Banxia even attempted suicide to save money for my journey to the imperial examination. I feel guilty about this."

"My mentor laid out his plans and I've been engrossed in writing them down. It was only yesterday that I learned that my sister Banxia almost died."

"So last night I discussed with my mother about coming to propose marriage, also to protect Banxia's reputation."

“I know that my widowed mother is the only one in my family who raises me, and our life is indeed difficult. But I promise that I will treat Banxia well.”
