When Old Yuan saw that her granddaughter was actually very willing to marry her, she was filled with emotion.
With such a granddaughter, it would be great to be able to recruit a wife. In that way, the old Song family would have a successor and would not be cut off after Aqiu got married.
She originally thought that Aqiu was unwilling. After all, this familiar family had never heard of anyone asking for a wife. What if Aqiu also dreamed of getting married in a glamorous manner?
So she never mentioned it.
I never thought that if we talked about it today, Aqiu would be willing.
That's fine too.
Old Yuan thought about the words of her old sisters and thought, could this be destiny?
There are very few people who are willing to come to marry into the family. Unless they have many sons and cannot live well, otherwise, who would bring their good sons to marry into the family?
This is really hard to find.
But they have ready-made candidates here.
Old Yuan's heart was full of smiles, thinking that the two children who grew up together were destined to be together after all.
But she didn't say much at the moment and just said: "Okay, since Aqiu is willing to bring in a new wife, let's do this for now. I'll go back to the matchmaker first. If the news spreads, everyone will know that our family is going to bring in a new wife.
Let’s wait and see about fate then.”
Song Qiu nodded hurriedly, "Okay, okay!"
As long as we don't talk about starting a family now, it's fine to recruit a wife. Take your time. It's best not to be able to recruit a wife in three to five years.
By then, she will have almost all she wants to do, and she may not be short of money, but she still has to worry about finding someone to come to her house to marry her?
Song Qiu thought very simply, just do it like this.
She's not in a hurry anyway.
…
Matchmaker Xiao was very anxious. While she was looking for a good candidate for Lihua, she also kept this place in mind. After waiting for two days, she couldn't help but come to visit her again.
Old Yuan and her have been friends for decades. They are a midwife and a matchmaker. They don't interfere in each other's business. They also live in villages all over the country, so the relationship is naturally good.
So Mr. Yuan had nothing bad to say in front of her.
I only said that my granddaughter wanted to find a wife to preserve the blood of the Song family, so she did not plan to marry outside.
"I originally looked at the child's wishes, but I never thought that she would have this idea in her heart. I am also happy in my heart. Sister Xiao, we have been friends for decades, and you also know that my family Fusheng's marriage was still the matchmaker you mentioned.
Well, I am just a son and he will not live long, but I still want to leave a lasting legacy for him."
"So my child said this to me, how can I disagree? It's really troublesome for you to be busy making plans for my girl. I also accepted this idea, but now I can't agree to this marriage. It's still troublesome.
You go back and have a good talk with that son of the Xu family. It's not that my family doesn't like him. He is indeed a good boy and should have a good marriage that suits him."
Matchmaker Xiao felt filled with regret as she listened. She felt that this boy from the Health Care Institute was a good match for this girl from the Song family.
Unfortunately, the Song family wants to recruit a new wife.
There is only one Miaomiao in the welfare family, so it is impossible to come to the door.
This marriage really can only be settled like this.
She nodded and said quite understandingly: "Okay, sister, I understand in my heart, and I understand you too. I know it has not been easy for you all these years. Don't worry, this marriage can't be guaranteed, but you can still
Are you afraid that I'll get into trouble with you? I'm not that kind of person, and you know that."
"Since I plan to find a wife for the girl, don't worry, old sister, I'll also keep it in mind. If I meet someone suitable, I'll make arrangements for the girl to come over first. As for the Xu family, you don't have to worry. I'll just go and talk to you about this.
It’s nothing, it’s just that the two children have no fate.”
There are also some matchmakers who, for the sake of money, insist on insisting on a marriage that can't be agreed upon, or if it really can't be agreed upon, they go out and throw dirty water on others to make other marriages impossible.
But Matchmaker Xiao has been a matchmaker in Shiliba Village for so many years, and she is really not that kind of person, so she is very popular and everyone is happy to find her.
After hearing this, Old Yuan felt relieved, grabbed a handful of copper coins and stuffed them into her, "Then we, A Qiu, will also bother you, Sister Xiao, first."
In fact, she already has candidates ready for her marriage, but receiving someone's affection for just a handful of copper coins can warm someone's heart, right?
Sure enough, although Matchmaker Xiao didn't care about the handful of copper coins, she still sighed that Mrs. Yuan was indeed a good person. She didn't shirk it, took the coins, and left Songshan Village for Dazao Village.
If this marriage is not settled, she still needs to talk it over with the Xu family, so that no one will remember the Song family.
As for the fact that the Song family wants to recruit a new wife, it depends on the old sister's intention. She can also use this to announce it and let everyone know about it, so that no one will get lost again and it will be difficult for the Song family to refuse.
Having said that, if you are willing to come to our house and marry someone, let's talk about it later. That would be great.
The matchmaker's mouth is the fastest to spread news. Sure enough, within two days, every village in the ten miles and eight villages knew about the Song family, and they all knew that this girl of the Song family was retained to recruit a wife.
Originally, they saw that the Song family had set up a tea stall next to the official road. The business seemed to be doing quite well in the past month. They had inquired about the items sold and their prices.
If you do the math, you can make at least two to three hundred big bucks a day, which means you can make several taels of silver in a month!
In addition, the girl from the Song family is also hard-working and capable. She can even drive a mule cart and is so good at doing business, so there is a lot of excitement.
But before he could take action, he was dissuaded by the news of the new marriage.
Forget it about recruiting a wife.
These days, if the family is not having a hard time, or if the man has no future, who would be willing to come to someone's house to be a son-in-law and give birth to a son who doesn't have his own surname?
Therefore, many people who originally planned to use matchmakers to get them back as wives have backed out.
But there are also people who want to keep an eye on this sweetheart when they hear that they are getting married.
Think about it, you can earn a few taels of silver in a month, or dozens of taels in a year. How can such a life not be delicious?
Ever since, Zhang Lao Dou of the Zhang family was anxiously waiting for a reply from Matchmaker Xiao, but there was no news, and the eldest son was urging for money. There was no other way, so Lao Dou Zhang had to ask Zhang Hugua to take the initiative to find Matchmaker Xiao.
When I came home, the Song family had guests again.
This time it was not early in the morning, nor was it at the Song family's house.
But in the middle of the morning, when it was about to reach noon but not yet, I came directly to the tea shed.
As soon as Song Qiu saw the visitor, some bad memories were awakened in his memory, and his complexion suddenly became worse.
When Old Yuan saw the visitor, she seemed a little uninterested, but since the visitor was a guest, she couldn't do anything embarrassing, so she asked the visitor to sit down and asked Zhang Lihua to serve herbal tea.
This carefree man who sat down and didn't think of himself as an outsider saw that what was served was water soaked in mint leaves for free, and immediately curled his lips and said: "I said, Aqiu, you are doing such a big business now. I heard that
They sell everything from cold shrimp to iced watermelon, why do you just serve me a cup of herbal tea? Is this how you treat guests?"
