Little Ah Yu actually did not know much about the meaning of a married couple, but she knew that husband and wife lived together as a man and a woman.
After they lived together for a long time, a little child would come out.
She comforted Zhang Qiaosi because she suddenly had this thought.
On the other side, Zhang Qiaosi’s thoughts were also especially simple, so the two children were connected.
Wang Liulang was afraid that Little Ah Yu would say something shocking again, so he hurriedly called out to her, “Ah Yu, come over. Class is starting. Teacher is looking for you.”
Little Ah Yu replied crisply, “Sixth Brother, I’m about to go in.”
“Sisi, why are you here again?” Zhang Xuyang was afraid that his sister would start doing weird things again and hurriedly went over.
Zhang Qiaosi saw her Big Brother and then Wang Liulang beside her.
Zhang Qiaosi had seen Wang Wulang before, but compared to him, Wang Liulang’s facial features looked even softer.
It was obvious that he was a good-tempered person.
Zhang Qiaosi looked at her Big Brother and then at Wang Liulang.
Then, she looked at Wang Liulang and glanced at her Big Brother again.
There was obvious disdain in her eyes.
Then, she asked Wang Liulang, “You’re the little girl’s brother? You’re ranked sixth?”
Wang Liulang did not answer her and only lowered his head to lead Little Ah Yu in.
“Why didn’t you answer me?” Zhang Qiaosi felt a little aggrieved. She was so good-looking that the uncles and aunties outside liked to talk to her.
Those Big Brothers and Sisters also liked to tease her.
But why did this little girl’s brother ignore her?
Wang Liulang was a little helpless. He turned around and looked at Zhang Qiaosi. “Young lady, we’ve never met before. It’s not appropriate to speak like this.”
Zhang Qiaosi frowned. “Aiya, you don’t look old either. Why are you talking like a Teacher? It’s so unpleasant. I don’t like it.”
Her words were especially coquettish. Zhang Xuyang was a little embarrassed and hurriedly pulled her back. “Sisi, stop fooling around. We’re going to class. Go back quickly. Mother will probably be anxious.”
“I don’t want to. Didn’t she say just now that she has a few Big Brothers for me to choose from? Then I’ll choose him!” Zhang Qiaosi pointed at Wang Liulang and said firmly, “I want him. I’ll marry into their family tomorrow!”
Zhang Xuyang: “!!!”
Wang Liulang blushed and his voice trembled. “Xuyang, control your sister!”
He couldn’t care less about etiquette at this time as he pulled Little Ah Yu in and did not look back.
After entering, Little Ah Yu still looked up and asked very innocently, “Sixth Brother, aren’t you happy that I found you a wife?”
Wang Liulang thought that if he explained this to his sister now, his sister would probably not understand.
Actually, he is only nine years old now. He would only be ten years old in summer. How could he know much?
Therefore, he only said, “It’s still early for me. There are still five Big Brothers in front. Our marriage is based on order. For example, in our family, Eldest Brother must get married first, and then the Big Brothers below will get married one by one before it’s my turn.”
Little Ah Yu pondered. “I see.”
Then she had to find a wife for the five Big Brothers first before telling Sixth Brother about the little girl.
Heavens, thinking about it this way, she had to find a lot of wives!
Little Ah Yu counted with her fingers and thought about the young ladies she knew.
Big Sister Tang Yuan was one, and so was Sister Liang Xue.
Teacher Yang’s daughter Liu’er was one, and Sister Wenwen was another.
There was also Sister Bian Dan in the village.
That’s right, that’s right. Grandpa’s family still has two Big Sisters!
This seemed to be a lot.
Haha, she was really a little genius.
Meatball: […]
[Kid, these things are not for you to consider.]
Little Ah Yu said, “Why can’t I consider it? Everyone in the family is troubled by this matter. I’ve thought of a good solution now.”
[The adults have their own considerations about marriage. You can’t interfere. Just like when you play with other children, the adults won’t stop you. This is because the children have their own choices. The adults also have their own choices. You can’t represent them.]
Little Ah Yu nodded. “Alright, I understand, but can I tell them my opinion?”
Meatball thought of the Wang Family’s reaction to these words and found it a little interesting. For a moment, it became naughty.
[Alright, then after school ends today, go back and tell your Grandma and see what they think.]
“That’s great, that’s great. I immediately thought of so many sisters who could be my sisters-in-law. Big Brothers will definitely be especially happy when they find out. If they’re sure, they can all get married tomorrow!”
[They will definitely be very happy.]
It was so happy that it smiled.
If marriage was really so simple, Old Madam Wang and the others would not be frowning all day.
In fact, even in the dead of the night, Old Madam Wang would think for a long time alone.
However, only Meatball knew about this. The rest of the Wang Family thought that Old Madam Wang was planning and would not be troubled by anything.
That was actually only because Old Madam Wang would always consider her family’s matters after everyone had rested.
Sometimes, she would open her eyes until dawn.
However, there was no need to tell Ah Yu these things.
Little Ah Yu felt that she had done something earth-shattering, so she was especially enthusiastic in class. She even forgot that her mother was feeling unwell.
While she was in class, Old man Wang’s house was especially lively.
Ouyang Changjing and the others had come this time with the intention of taking Little Ah Yu away.
Therefore, they prepared many generous gifts. Although it was not a box of gold like Qin Huai’s mother, they still took out sufficiently expensive gifts.
To show his sincerity, Ouyang Changjing did not pretend to be a guard. Instead, he visited as the person in charge.
He asked his subordinates to take out the things and introduce them one by one.
First, there were a few scrolls of calligraphy.
“I heard that your Second Young Master has already become a county scholar, so I think he should like these calligraphy and paintings. It’s not from a famous master, but it’s quite interesting.”
After Ouyang Changjing finished speaking, he got someone to present the second gift.
It was a large-scale jade statue that was carved with the image of family and joy.
“This is an important gift I specially brought over from West Wind Nation. Back then, I spent 5,000 taels of silver to get it in an auction from a rich businessman.”
This ornament was half the height of a person. Although the jade was not very precious, because it was especially large, it looked especially precious.
However, he did not notice that after this thing was moved in, the expressions of Old Madam Wang and Old man Wang changed.
Ouyang Changjing explained non-stop, “This ornament comes from the late sculptor, the King of Carving. He poured his life’s work into it before finally carving it. It’s rumored that as long as such an item is placed in the house, it can attract business like the clouds and bring in money every day.
I heard that your family has opened a bun shop and seems to be opening another branch. I think such an ornament will be very helpful at home.
Of course. I know you’re from a scholarly family and don’t care about money, but you can still use it as a symbol of blessing.”
