Chapter 42: Matchmaker (2) Original translation is from tenderflower's blog.
Shu Lan didn’t expect her older sister to have such a big reaction. She shivered with fright. Even though she thought her older sister’s request was unreasonable, she still agreed obediently: “I will be obedient. Older sister, don’t get rid of me. You are my older sister, I’m your younger sister, you are not allowed to leave me...”
Xiao Lang laughed silently.
The next day, Shu Maoting carried the medicine box to the neighboring village for a follow-up consultation, and only the four members of Qin-shi were at home.
As soon as the sun climbed up the treetops, a donkey swayed by the door of the house. Sitting on its back was not Zhu Yuanbao, but a 40-year-old woman dressed in red and green. It was also very good, and the condition of the house was good.
Qin-shi greeted old Lady Wan in doubt.
Shu Wan put down the “Three Character Classic” in her hand and took her younger sister to greet old Lady Wan.
After old Lady Wan entered the door, those small eyes first looked at the big and small ones that were sitting under the apricot trees and read together. When Shu Wan got up to greet her, she smiled and nodded. Her eyes wandered back and forth on Shu Wan twice. She gave a full score in her heart. This girl looked good and looked gentle, no wonder she could enter the eyes of Master Cheng.
“The eldest girl continues to be busy, this old lady is here to talk to your mother!”
This wasn’t the first time a matchmaker had come to the family. When she met old lady Wan’s thoughtful gaze, Shu Wan guessed a little bit about her intentions. Even if she was usually calm, she couldn’t help but blush slightly, so she pretended not to understand. She responded and sat down with Xiao Lang and Shu Lan again, but her ears were paying attention to the movement in the house.
Xiao Lang looked at the east wing and then looked at Shu Wan, who was obviously absent-minded, feeling a little complicated. Sister Wan was getting older by the year and it was time to get married, but he always felt like none of those men were worthy of her.
“Older sister, how do you read this character? There are so many strokes!”
Shu Lan’s crisp voice interrupted the thoughts of the two of them. Shu Wan couldn’t hear the conversation of the people in the house, so she could only concentrate on dealing with her younger sister and said softly: “This read land...”
Inside the house, Qin-shi was dumbfounded. Cheng Qingran actually wanted to marry Ah Wan?
Old Lady Wan was still praising Cheng Qingran: “Needless to say about Master Cheng, that’s a first-class appearance. The men in the whole city are no better than him and he has a good character. There is not a single room in the family. If your eldest daughter gets married, she will not need to serve her in-laws, and she will not have to fight with miscellaneous women. For us women, this is a great blessing! Besides, Master Cheng has a lot of wealth, not only has property in the capital, but he also has several Zhuangzi here, so you will never worry about food and clothing in the future!”
Qin-shi nodded unconsciously. She had seen him before and had also been to Cheng’s residence. What old lady Wan said should be true, but Cheng Qingran’s conditions were so good, how could she have an unreal feeling?! Such a fairy-like character, why did he fall in love with her daughter?
Being a mother was like this. When someone came to propose marriage to their daughter, it was either too lacking to look at, or it was too good to make people murmur in their hearts.
Thinking of Cheng Qingran’s age, Qin-shi’s heart jumped for a moment. She also came from a wealthy family. Generally, the sons and young masters of large families were married early. Even if the marriage was late, there would be a room in the courtyard before, even if you don’t have the mind, the elders in the family would also arrange it. If Cheng Qingran was really not close to women, was there a problem with his body?
He had health problems and did not dare to marry a girl in the capital, so he came to this remote town to avoid...
“Aunt, I know what you said. It’s just that the child’s marriage still needs the child’s father to make a decision, so you go back first. I’ll discuss it with her father later, and will definitely give you an answer in two days, how about it?”
Old Lady Wan was instructed by Cheng Qingran to speak respectfully to the Shu family. How dare she not answer at this time? She hurriedly smiled and said: “Marriage matters, of course, we have to discuss it carefully, then this old lady will go back first, and come back to visit the day after tomorrow!”
Qin-shi forced a smile and went out with her, turned around to see the eldest daughter who bowed her head to old Lady Wan, and suddenly felt very uncomfortable. Even if her daughter was old, even if she was reluctant, she had to prepare for her marriage.
When Shu Maoting came back in the second half, Qin-shi talked with her husband for a long time in the east wing.
Shu Maoting was only a little more surprised than his wife. After pondering, he said, “Don’t guess about this. We live in the village, and we don’t know what he is like. I’ll go to my father-in-law’s house and ask about his family. If he thinks it’s suitable, I’ll find an opportunity to take his pulse...”
Qin-shi hurriedly urged: “Then you can go quickly and find out sooner. Alas, my heart is a mess. I hope he is okay, and I’m afraid my daughter will find out there are other secrets after marrying him. If he is more ordinary, and it would be better if the family were poorer!”
Shu Maoting smiled helplessly, changed into a new shirt, and hurried out the door.
When he arrived at Qin’s house, Shu Maoting explained the matter to Qin Ruhai in a succinct manner, and finally said: “You have a lot of knowledge, what do you think of this person?”
Qin Ruhai still attached great importance to the marriage of his eldest granddaughter. Thought of Cheng Qingran’s unknown origin, his lone style, and how he looked at Shu Wan in a daze that day. He shook his head and said: “The origin is unknown and too good to be a good match.”
Shu Maoting’s expression froze. This was disapproval...
When he got home and faced his three children, he didn’t show anything on his face and only talked to his wife when sleeping.
Qin-shi sighed, feeling a little lost again. It was a pity for that good appearance.
