Chapter 147: Chapter 147 Introducing a Partner to the Third Child
That day, Qiu Maode was carried back by the Qiu family mbers who received the news.
The n in the village didn’t dare get involved in this matter.
They suddenly all beca like won from the feudal era, as if rely touching the hem of Qiu Maode’s clothes would lead to being fancied by him.
The next thing they knew, they themselves might be the ones dragged into the groves.
There was no need for the Yue family to retaliate against the Qiu family.
As long as Yue Jiannan colorfully recounted the day’s events in public, Qiu Maode would be taphorically whipped again and again.
In just a short span of two or three days, people in the village would avoid the Qiu family whenever they saw them.
So even speculated that since none of the Qiu brothers had married, perhaps they all shared that “problem”.
Who would dare to marry their daughter into the Qiu family now? That would be asking for trouble.
Qiu Maode, having failed in his endeavor, ironically beca a hot topic in the village.
The Qiu family was furious, yet they didn’t even dare to show their faces.
The entire family was now completely isolated by the villagers.
Whenever the village won saw them, they would spit contemptuously and curse the family for not knowing sha, for trying to drag n into the groves in broad daylight.
The reaction from the village n was even more severe, brushing off their sleeves as if they had touched sothing dirty whenever the Qiu family mbers looked at them twice.
They would also curse fiercely, “Stop staring, or I’ll punch you,” as if afraid of becoming the Qiu family’s next target, using this thod to assert their innocence.
Dong Cuifen made a special trip to apologize, holding Lin Chunju’s hand and not letting go.
“Sister Lin, it’s my fault for not seeing Qiu Maode for who he was. I never anticipated he could be so disgusting, and I almost pushed your daughter into disaster.”
Now, the village people’s attributions towards the Qiu family grew more intense.
Many n firmly stated that Qiu Maode had shown an interest in them before.
But although they boasted looks comparable to Pan An, that was not their cup of tea, and so they had righteously rejected Qiu Maode.
Thus, even Dong Cuifen suspected that Qiu Maode’s initial proposals were actually a ruse to marry Yue Xiaofang so he could openly get close to Yue Jiannan.
Lin Chunju, in turn, comforted her, “Ah, you can’t be blad. We also didn’t know he was like that in the beginning.”
As Dong Cuifen listened to her, she felt even more guilt-ridden, “Ah, I botched Xiaofang’s situation, but don’t worry, I will definitely make sure to arrange Jiannan’s matter beautifully. After all, he’s been wronged, and I will surely compensate him well.”
The wronged Yue Jiannan stood by, taking the opportunity to sigh.
The family mbers, struggling to contain their laughter, watched his performance while Lin Chunju earnestly patted Dong Cuifen’s hand.
“Sister Dong, Jiannan’s lifelong happiness is now entrusted to you.”
Dong Cuifen agreed wholeheartedly and left.
In fact, the Yue family hadn’t taken the matter to heart since Yue Jiannan really wasn’t that old after all, and he could still have his fun for a couple more years.
But to their surprise, Dong Cuifen took the matter very seriously, proposing several potential suitors.
The one to conclude the list was actually the daughter of a wealthy villager—Yu Yaxian.
The Yu family was considered wealthy in the village, owning over forty acres of land, and they had to pay for laborers during the busy farming seasons every year.
With only one son and one daughter, both were brought up in affluence.
They were the envy of Yue Jiannan since he was young.
Yu Yaxian, although a girl, was also pampered by her parents.
Her na was uniquely selected by soone paid by the family, unlike those of others.
Lin Chunju had not expected that Dong Cuifen could pull off such a connection.
Dong Cuifen felt honored, “Yu Yaxian said she had seen Jiannan and thought he was not bad, so she agreed to et him once.”
Lin Chunju nodded eagerly, “This is an opportunity beyond our wildest dreams. I’ll go ask for Jiannan’s opinion right away.”
“If you think it could work, let’s set the eting for the 28th day of the Lunar New Year at the Yue family ho. We’ll treat it as a normal village visit, so that whether it works out or not, it won’t harm the youngsters’ pride.”
Lin Chunju thought the suggestion was good, “Alright, you’ve truly thought this through.”
And so, Comrade Yue Jiannan’s first matchmaking eting comnced.
