I'm dressed up as the timid eldest daughter, and the whole family has to listen to me!

Su Banxia smiled and saw Aunt Ning off before sighing helplessly and turning to go inside. It seemed that Aunt Ning was determined to let her get along well with Mandun. She had only said a few polite words, and Aunt Ning had taken the opportunity to say that she would bring Mandun to this small courtyard on Dwarf Mountain often.

Su Banxia felt a headache whenever she saw Mandun'er's silly look. She felt she needed to have a proper talk with Wang Guihua about this, lest Wang Guihua make a rash promise to Aunt Ning without her knowledge, and then want to go back on her word later.

Thinking this, Su Banxia went directly to the backyard to find Wang Guihua.

"Mother, put down what you're doing for now. I have something to tell you."

Seeing her daughter speaking to her so earnestly, Wang Guihua quickly put down her work and followed Su Banxia to the front yard.

"Banxia, ​​just say what's on your mind."

Su Banxia pulled Wang Guihua down to sit.

"Mother, you know that Aunt Ning brought Mandun over today. What do you think of Mandun?"

Wang Guihua looked at Su Banxia with a smile in her eyes.

“I’ve watched Mandun grow up since he was a child. He doesn’t have any bad habits and has a good reputation in the village. He’s just a little simple-minded, but he seems like a good person to live a good life. Besides, the village head’s family is doing quite well. If you can marry him in the future, that would be wonderful. We’re from the same village, so I can see you often. If you suffer any grievances at the village head’s house, just come back to your parents’ home. With your parents backing you up, what are you afraid of?”

Upon hearing this, Su Banxia knew she hadn't guessed wrong; Wang Guihua had taken a liking to Mandun. So Su Banxia looked at Wang Guihua solemnly.

"Mother, I need to talk to you about this. There's absolutely no possibility between Mandun and me. I've never thought highly of him since he was little. Although he seems honest and kind, he's indecisive and only knows how to listen to his parents. He's so old and doesn't have any special skills. If I really marry him, I'm afraid I'll suffer a lot. Putting aside everything else, just look at the mother-in-law relationship. He probably won't take my side, since he listens to his mother so much..."

Upon hearing this, Wang Guihua smiled and patted Su Banxia's hand.

“When two people live together, if one of them is stronger, they can manage to get by. It can’t be that both of them get all the benefits. Besides, Aunt Ning doesn’t seem unreasonable. I think she likes you quite a bit. If she marries you and you become her daughter-in-law, she definitely won’t make things difficult for you. We’re all from the same village, so we all know each other’s situation. Besides, since we’re from the same village, she wouldn’t dare to mistreat you. Don’t worry, Mandun has a mother, and you have a mother too. If you two really start arguing, your mother will stand by your side and support you.”

Su Banxia glanced at Wang Guihua. She simply couldn't believe that someone as weak-willed as Wang Guihua would stand up for her, but she couldn't say that outright, so she could only force a smile.

"Mother, please stop dragging me and Mandun into this. I've told you I don't like him and I don't think much of him. While family background is important, the most important thing is that the two of them can get along. Putting everything else aside, living together is a matter for the two of them. If they can't stand each other, then there's no way they can live a good life together."

Wang Guihua had initially thought that Mandun'er's family background was excellent, ranking among the best in Sujia Village. Not to mention, he had the village head's position to back him up, and Mandun'er didn't seem like the type to cause trouble in the future. She believed he would definitely live a good life with Su Banxia. Moreover, if her daughter married someone from the same village, Su Banxia could come back to visit her parents' home from time to time, which would make her feel better.

But now that Wang Guihua saw that Su Banxia was determined not to marry Mandun, she had no choice but to accept the situation. After all, although the marriage was arranged by the parents and the matchmaker, if she wanted her daughter to have a good life, she still had to listen to her daughter's opinion.

So Wang Guihua sighed.

"It's because I thought too simply and didn't consider your perspective. Fortunately, I haven't finalized this matter with Aunt Ning yet. It's just that both families have the same idea, and the unspoken agreement hasn't been made. Since you've explained things to me like this, I won't consider Mandun'er's situation anymore. Don't worry, if Aunt Ning brings this up with me in the future, I'll cover for you."

Hearing Wang Guihua's words, Su Banxia felt reassured, and smiled at Wang Guihua.

"Mother, your daughter isn't in a hurry to get married. I want to spend more time with you and Dad. You just need to worry about my brother first and help him find a wife so he can give you a grandson."

Su Shiyan happened to come in from outside the courtyard at that moment. Hearing Su Banxia's words, he blushed and stammered, "..."

"I...I'm not in a hurry..."

Wang Guihua glared at Su Shiyan.

"Why aren't you in a hurry? How old are you? I'm actually thinking of finding a matchmaker to help you find a husband when I have some free time these days. Nowadays, all the people of similar age in our village are married and have children. Aren't you worried?"

Upon hearing this, Su Shiyan's face turned even redder. He immediately put down the carrying pole he was holding, turned around, and quickly went into the house.

"Mother, I don't care about this. I'll only listen to you and Father. You two decide what to do!"

After saying that, Su Shiyan disappeared from sight.

Seeing this, Wang Guihua couldn't help but smile helplessly.

"You see, Banxia, ​​your brother is always too proud to admit his feelings, but now that it's his own marriage, he's the one who's embarrassed."

Seeing this, Su Banxia could only cover her mouth and chuckle.

"Mom, I told you so. You still have to take care of my brother's wedding yourself. He's like a big, silly guy, not worried about anything."

Wang Guihua nodded and stood up, saying:

“Alright, I’ll go to the west end of the village tomorrow to talk to your Grandma Sun about this. I originally wanted to find Aunt Cai to arrange marriages for you guys, but it seems that Aunt Cai isn’t a reliable person either. We can’t let her screw us over. We’ll just go to the west end of the village to find Grandma Sun. She’s a matchmaker who often arranges marriages for people, so she probably has quite a few girls in mind.”

After discussing the matter, the two went about their own business.

the next morning,

Just as Su Banxia was thinking about going to the county to sell candied hawthorns, she saw a horse-drawn carriage approaching in the distance.

When the carriage stopped in front of her, Su Banxia realized that this person was none other than Young Master Lou's subordinate...
