Grandma Sun was very pleased with Aunt Luo's compliments, so she turned to Wang Guihua, patted her hand, and smiled:

"Since I'm here today, I'll talk things over between your two families. They're marrying off their daughter, while you're taking in a wife. These are fundamentally two different things. Look how well-behaved and capable Lianhua is. I've watched her grow up since she was a child. Your family is adding a new member, so you should contribute something."

Wang Guihua glanced at her son's shy expression and thought to herself that Su Shiyan might truly have taken a liking to this Lotus Girl. So, she gritted her teeth and nodded.

"I think Lianhua is quite a catch, and she might actually become our daughter-in-law. Today, in front of you adults, I'll settle this matter. If the two children really do get together, we'll agree on a dowry of five taels of silver. What do you think?"

Before Grandma Sun could speak, Aunt Luo, who was standing to the side, hurriedly nodded and said:

"Sure, sure! Aunt Guihua, you're easy to talk to, so naturally we'll be easy to talk to too. Isn't it good for both our families to arrange a marriage? In the future, we'll visit each other more often and let the two children get to know each other better. If it goes well, we'll finalize the marriage as soon as possible, which will put our minds at ease!"

As she spoke, Aunt Luo turned to her daughter and instructed her:

"There's not much work to do at home these days, so you should come over here more often. Look at Aunt Guihua's house, it's spacious and well-maintained. Just spending a few days here would make you happy. Also, Aunt Guihua has a business, and Su Shiyan probably can't leave on weekdays, so come over a few more times and help out with the chores. That way you can get familiar with it sooner..."

Hearing Aunt Luo's words, Wang Guihua was very pleased. Seeing that Aunt Luo was polite, she smiled and said in return:

"We have enough people to do the work, so there's no need for Lotus Girl to do any work. If Lotus Girl likes to move around, she can come a few more times so she can get familiar with the surrounding environment. When you come, Auntie Supervisor will cook delicious food for you, and you won't have to do any work!"

Lotus nodded shyly upon hearing this.

"Then I just hope Aunt Guihua won't find me annoying..."

Upon hearing this, Wang Guihua quickly smiled and waved her hand, saying:

"What are you saying? I'm always looking forward to your visits, how could I find you a nuisance? Just come and visit more often when you have time!"

As she spoke, Wang Guihua reached out and nudged Su Shiyan's arm, giving him a wink.

"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and take your Lotus sister out for a walk, so she can get familiar with our surroundings."

Then Wang Guihua looked at Grandma Sun and Aunt Luo sitting to the side and said:

“We elders won’t go and join the fun. Speaking of which, Grandma Sun hasn’t seen what my house looks like yet. I’ll show you two around first. You haven’t gone up to the second floor yet, have you? Come on, I’ll take you up to see it. We’ll cook and eat later. Anyway, there’s still plenty of time.”

Grandma Sun was overjoyed to hear this. She exchanged a glance with Aunt Luo, who was sitting next to her, and quickly stood up with Wang Guihua.

"Great! I haven't had a chance to properly visit your house yet. This is a perfect opportunity for me to take a good look around. I guess I'm benefiting from my niece's generosity!"

Aunt Luo laughed when she heard this.

"What are you saying? It's because of you that I'm able to find such a good marriage for my Lianhua. If you hadn't always thought of me, your niece, how could I have found such a good match for her?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Guihua quickly replied with a smile:

"Isn't that right? We're all fortunate to be together because of Grandma Sun!"

As she spoke, Wang Guihua reached out and nudged Su Shiyan, who was still sitting in his chair, urging him on:

"What are you sitting there for? Get up quickly and take your little sister Lotus out for a walk so she can get to know our village."

Upon hearing this, Su Shiyan blushed and quickly stood up, looking at Lianhua sitting to the side, and said:

"Lotus Girl, how about we go out for a stroll?"

Upon hearing this, Lianhua quickly stood up and nodded to Su Shiyan.

"Alright, I'll go out with you and take a look, which will also help me get familiar with the area."

Su Shiyan hurriedly got up to open the door for Lianhua, and then the two left the hospital one after the other.

Wang Guihua and Aunt Luo exchanged a glance, then turned to watch the two figures leave. They smiled at each other, and Wang Guihua then led Aunt Luo and Grandma Sun to tour the house.

Just as Su Shiyan led Lianhua out of the courtyard, they bumped into the head maid who was coming to the small courtyard. For some reason, Su Shiyan suddenly became nervous.

When Da Ya saw that Su Shiyan was followed by a strange woman who was so beautiful and seemed to have a very quiet personality, Da Ya felt quite threatened. She quickly stepped forward and sweetly called out,

“Brother Shi Yan…”

Su Shiyan blushed and looked up at Daya.

"Da Ya, what brings you here today?"

Da Ya smiled gently at Su Shiyan.

"Brother Shi Yan, have you forgotten our agreement from yesterday? Didn't we agree to meet here?"

Lotus, standing behind, sensed something was off about the young girl's tone, so she frowned and asked:

"Brother Shi Yan, who is this?"

Su Shiyan glanced timidly at the lotus flower, then scratched his head awkwardly and said:

"She's from our village, her name is Daya, and she should be around your age..."

Seeing this, Daya also turned to look at Su Shiyan.

"Brother Shi Yan, who is she?"

Su Shiyan was momentarily at a loss for words to describe the lotus, so he lowered his head and whispered:

"She, she is my Lotus Sister..."

Although the voice was soft, Da Ya heard it clearly and truly believed that Lianhua was Su Shiyan's distant cousin. So she went up to Lianhua very enthusiastically, took her hand, and smiled:

"So you're here to visit relatives today? I've never met you before, it's quite a coincidence that we've met today. We're about the same age, so let's not be like sisters, let's just call each other friends."

Upon hearing this, Lianhua naturally realized that Daya had misunderstood her relationship with Su Shiyan. However, being too shy, she was too embarrassed to admit that she had come to Su Shiyan for a blind date.

So she secretly glanced at Su Shiyan and saw that Su Shiyan was just blushing and lowering his head without saying a word. She had no choice but to go along with it and let Daya hold her hand and chat casually…

Seeing that the young girl was talking nonstop, Su Shiyan became a little anxious. It was almost mealtime, and his mother would surely come out to call him and Lianhua inside for dinner.

It wouldn't be good if Da Ya saw this, so Su Shiyan cleared his throat and looked at Da Ya.

"Ahem, Daya, about the thing you asked me to inquire about for you yesterday, I asked around. My older sister said that there are no shortage of manpower at home right now. Why don't you go and look for other jobs?"
