Chapter 443 - Two Years Later (5)
“Xueyan, are you really willing to let a girl like Jiaojiao get married?” Madam Ma sighed and said, “She’s smart and good-tempered, and her personality is very lovable. If it were me, I definitely wouldn’t want to marry her off. I wouldn’t mind keeping her by my side for the rest of my life.” Unlike the families in the capital, the people in Spring City did not think that the sooner a girl got married, the better. On the contrary, they felt that the longer a girl stayed at home, the more desirable she would be. Madam Ma said, “Speaking of which, Ling and Sa are already at the age of marriage. How about… letting Jiaojiao marry one of them?”
When Madam Yu heard this, her eyes lit up. She had been a patient woman, but for the first time, she couldn’t wait to say, “That works! I think Ling and Sa both like Jiaojiao, especially Sa. You all know that Sa usually finds girls annoying, but in the past two years, he has been going to Jiaojiao’s place a lot. The cousins are very close. I know my son very well. He definitely likes Jiaojiao.”
Luo Xueyan opened her mouth, but before she could speak, she saw Madam Yu shake her head again. “But Sa is impulsive and doesn’t know how to dote on girls. If Jiaojiao marries him, I’m afraid she’ll suffer, and that kid is a blockhead. Ling is better. He has a gentle personality and is more mature. Speaking of which, there have been many people who have proposed marriage to Ling in the past few years, but Ling doesn’t like it. I can’t persuade him no matter what. He definitely likes Jiaojiao too. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have gone to talk to her as soon as he comes back from the camp.”
As Madam Yu continued to talk, Madam Ma was unhappy and said, “Sister-in-law, did you forget about Qian. He is about the same age as Jiaojiao. They’re quite close usually. Although Qian is a little naughty, he’s considerate. It’s best if they can be together. Also, Tan and Qiu are a good match too!” After saying that, Madam Ma looked at Luo Xueyan. “Xueyan, what do you think?”
Luo Xueyan was speechless.
Two pairs of eager eyes looked at her. Luo Xueyan said, “That depends on what the children want…” She did not expect Madam Yu and Madam Ma to have such thoughts. However, after thinking about it carefully, Luo Xueyan did not think that it was a bad idea. First of all, they were all family, and second of all, the juniors of the Luo family were all upright and good-looking. She didn’t want her future son-in-law to be rich or have a high official position as long as he could treat her daughter well. The sons of the Luo family, Luo Ling, Luo Sa, and Luo Qian, were gentle, brave, and lively. Most importantly, they were kind-hearted. If Shen Miao was married to any of them, her life in the future would only be sweet and not bitter.
However, Luo Xueyan still had to ask Shen Miao. She did not know what kind of person Shen Miao liked. At first, she thought that Shen Miao liked people like Fu Xiuyi, but in the past two years, Shen Miao had never mentioned Fu Xiuyi at all, which gradually made her feel relieved.
“Why don’t you find an opportunity to ask Jiaojiao what she thinks?” Madam Ma hurriedly said, “If Jiaojiao really likes one of the boys, no matter who it is, it will be a blessing to the Luo family. We have to hold a wedding for them as soon as possible. The son they have will definitely be smart, and the daughter they have will definitely be beautiful.”
