Chapter 271: The Matchmaker
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
In June, the weather got worse.

Because they were close and because Chen Daniu, Chen Erniu, and Su Xiaoling had reached the marriageable age, they stayed at home to make sauerkraut and pickles.

In the shop, Su Sanlang, Madam Zhao, Chen Hu, and Madam Qian were busy.

In June, the weather became even hotter.

On June 14th, when a matchmaker came to find Madam Qian to ask about Chen Daniu, Madam Zhao was also present.

Coincidentally, all the sauerkraut and pickles were sold out.

They invited the matchmaker, Madam Zhu, into the shop to speak in detail.

Madam Zhu was here for Chen Daniu, so she was very enthusiastic towards Madam Qian.

Madam Qian also smiled and greeted Madam Zhu. She asked, “Sister, which family is it? Are they interested in Daniu or Erniu?”

Madam Zhu smiled and said enthusiastically, “Qian, it’s the child of the Luo family in Changqing Village. His name is Luo Chuan. Both his parents are dead. His biological Auntie dragged me here to be a matchmaker to ask your Daniu. Her family is willing to pay ten taels of silver as a betrothal gift. If it succeeds, Daniu will be able to go over and be the head of the family. There will definitely be no mother-in-law suppressing her.”

“Chuan is also a diligent person. The ten acres of land at home are all planted. There’s a bumper harvest every year. If Daniu marries, there will definitely be something to look forward to.”

Madam Zhu said with a smile as she quietly sized up Madam Qian’s expression to see her reaction.

Madam Qian frowned when she heard that it was Luo Chuan. Luo Chuan had been called off by the Su family last year.

Originally, he was engaged to Su Yufang, but Su Yufang and Xu Bowen got together and broke off the engagement. They even made a scene. Although it wasn’t Luo Chuan’s fault, Madam Qian knew that the Luo family wasn’t to blame. She just didn’t want to choose the Luo family because of the Su family.

Madam Qian’s enthusiasm cooled down. She still said to Madam Zhu gently, “Sister, I can’t answer you for the time being. I have to go back and discuss it with my husband. I’ll give you a reply in a few days.”

Madam Qian was glad that Chen Hu and Su Sanlang had something on and were not here.

Madam Zhu was good at reading someone’s body language and knew that Madam Qian was a little unhappy. Madam Zhu was also an honest person. She smiled and nodded. “Alright, alright, alright. We definitely have to discuss such a big matter. Then I’ll come and ask you the answer in two days.”

“Then you guys go ahead. I won’t disturb you anymore.”

Madam Zhu knew when to advance and when to retreat. After saying what she needed to say, she didn’t pester them anymore.

Madam Qian nodded and Madam Zhao sent her off with a smile.

After Madam Zhu left, Madam Qian said to Madam Zhao, “Sister-in-law, what do you think we should do? It’s been half a year since that incident, and no matchmaker came. I’m quite anxious. Now that a matchmaker is here, I’m happy, but it’s the Luo family. I feel a little upset.”

“When Luo Chuan came to break off Su Yufang’s engagement, it was Su Yufang who sent a fake letter. At first, the Luo family didn’t know the truth and they also came to break off the engagement. Does this mean that the Luo family only cares about the health of the woman? Later on, they did find out the truth. However, I’m worried that if I reject it, in the future, there will be fewer and fewer people coming to ask for Daniu…”
