On this day, Gu Zhidong's daughter-in-law hurriedly ran in from outside, and when she saw her in-laws patting her thigh, she was surprised: "Daddy and Auntie, a great thing, a great thing." ”

The two elders who were peeling corn cobs in the yard were all stunned when they heard this, and they didn't know where this good thing came from.

Since so many things have happened in their own family, there has not been a good thing, and now they suddenly say that there is a good thing, and they are really suspicious in their hearts.

However, while they were suspicious, they were still very curious in their hearts, curious about what could make their eldest daughter-in-law run in from outside in a hurry.

"What's good? Let's talk about it. ”

Gu Zhidong, who came out of the utility room on the side with his hands, looked at his mother-in-law curiously and asked.

Pan Fangcao didn't sell Guanzi either, and said with a smile: "When I went to the town today, a matchmaker actually asked me about Chunlai." He also said that he wanted to introduce Chunlai to a rather literary son, and when I heard this, I came back in a hurry. ”

For the son that the matchmaker said, she was really satisfied in her heart.

A literary son! That's pretty good!

Gu Zhidong and Old Man Gu were also quite surprised in their hearts after hearing this, but after being surprised, they were full of suspicion.

A literary son is still worried about not being able to marry a lady? His own reputation in Chunlai is stinky, will a literary son want a woman with a bad reputation? Obviously, this is not possible.

"Eldest daughter-in-law, you can't believe this matter. A man with literary talent can see the spring. So, don't be kidding, come and help break the corn. ”

Old man Gu's words fell, and the people around him also nodded with deep sympathy.

Seeing that everyone didn't believe it, Pan Fangcao directly took out a picture scroll from the north basket to show them.

"You see, it's this son, he looks like a talent, and what the matchmaker says is ten percent true."

Pan Fangcao, who was convinced of this matter, handed the picture scroll that the matchmaker brought back to her to several of them.

When they saw the painting, they all gathered around curiously to look at the man in the painting.

Although the man in the painting is dressed in the costume of a peasant family, his temperament is completely different from that of a peasant man.

This alone has convinced many people.

"Fangcao, how did the matchmaker tell you about this son? You tell us about it. ”

Gu Zhidong asked his daughter-in-law, he really wanted to know about this matter and the man in the picture scroll.

Her daughter is more than eighteen years old, and if she doesn't get married, she will become an old girl.

Pan Fangcao City picked up a stool and put it under his buttocks, and then sat down.

Old man Gu and his entourage also stepped forward and waited for her narration.

Under their gaze, Pan Fangcao swallowed her saliva and moistened her throat, and said, "The matchmaker said that this son is a person from Mujin Village, which separates us from two towns. ”

"The family background is also good, living in a big brick house, and this son is taking the Xiucai exam, he is loyal and honest, and he is a very good man.

Moreover, the man's father and mother also said that they were willing to pay a dowry of ten taels of silver, which was four taels of silver higher than the dowry offered by those people in the Luo family. ”

When everyone heard the high price of ten taels of silver, their hearts that were originally a little satisfied were even more satisfied, so they asked anxiously. "Did you ask her name?"

Although the names were written on the scroll, none of them were literate, so naturally they couldn't read it.

When Pan Fangcao heard this, the whole person was shocked, and then patted her forehead in annoyance, and said, "I forgot." ”

Everyone: "......"

Gu Chunlai, who was embroidering handkerchiefs in the room, suddenly felt that he was chilling, looked at the fierce sunlight outside, and touched his nose, maybe he felt wrong.

In the courtyard, everyone was quite surprised, this matchmaker was really good, and she actually introduced such a good in-law to her own family.

"We still have to ask Chunlai what she thinks about this matter and see what she has to say." As a child, Gu Zhidong, her father, is still more rational.

When everyone heard him say this, they thought about it, thought it was so, and nodded.

"Eldest daughter-in-law, you go into the room and call out Chunlai, and we will talk to her about it."

The person who spoke was Old Man Gu, and he couldn't wait in his heart.

Pan Fangcao, who was able to find such a good in-law for her daughter, couldn't wait, and after listening to her father-in-law's words, she nodded and walked to Gu Chunlai's room.

Gu Chunlai, who was embroidering handkerchiefs in the room, was still thinking that the handkerchief was almost finished, and he would soon be able to get seven yuan.

Although the price is not as good as that of the sachet, it is better than the simplicity.

But when she heard footsteps at the door, she put down her needle and thread and handkerchief.

Sure enough, in a few breaths, there was a knock on the door.

Pan Fangcao, who came in, saw her daughter sitting on the edge of the bed doing embroidery, and then beckoned to her with a smile and said, "Girl, you come out, we have something to tell you." ”

Listening to his mother's words, Gu Chunlai looked up at her with some confusion, "Mother, is there something wrong with asking me out?" ”

"You come out and tell you, hurry up, everyone is still waiting." Pan Fangcao urged.

Hearing her urging, Gu Chunlai got up from the bed and walked out.

followed her mother to the courtyard, and she saw that the whole family was actually gathered together, she was stunned, is there anything to discuss?

Then, thinking that she had something to discuss, she brought a small stool and sat down.

Everyone saw that the main master was coming, so Mrs. Gu, who was the head of the house, came to her with the scroll, and handed her the scroll, saying, "This is the son introduced by the matchmaker, very good, take a look." ”

Gu Chunlai took the scroll and opened it, and in the scroll, a man with a good face stood quietly, still holding a book in his hand, his head slightly lowered, as if he was reading a book.

Although he is dressed in ordinary clothes, he has the temperament of a scholar, and he is not much better than those normal peasant men who have their backs to the sky.

Seeing that her granddaughter was looking at the picture scroll, the old woman slowly told her the general information about the man.

Gu Chunlai listened, his eyes lit up slightly, obviously he had a good impression of this man.

Listening to his grandmother, this man's family is far away from here, he lives in a big brick house, and he is the only man in the family except for the eldest daughter who has been married.

Moreover, this man is still a master who wants to take the talent test, which is really good.

Compared to the first man before it, it is simply the difference between heaven and earth. If you want to choose a man, this man is undoubtedly the most suitable.

The more he thought about it, the more satisfied Gu Chunlai became.
