Lu Dagui was stunned for a moment, and turned back to look at the closed courtyard door. His originally lonely expression suddenly became brighter, and he smiled like a fool weighing more than a hundred pounds.
"Qiuying, I'll go find a matchmaker tomorrow."
After he finished speaking with a laugh, he disappeared into the night.
Xu was disturbed by the movement of the two people. Fang walked out of the house with her clothes on. She looked at Zhang Qiuying at the door with a puzzled look on her face.
"Qiuying, I seemed to hear Dagui's voice just now?"
Zhang Qiuying nodded sheepishly.
"It's him."
Combined with the voice he just heard, Fang suddenly had a bad premonition in her heart, "If he doesn't sleep at night, what is he doing here?"
"He said he wanted to marry me." Zhang Qiuying confessed.
Fang was shocked, "You agreed?"
Zhang Qiuying nodded.
"Well." She said, looking at Fang with some embarrassment, "Aunt, I'm sorry, I mainly feel that my conditions are really not worthy of your son, and Brother Lu and I have known each other before... …”
At this point, she stopped talking.
At this point, Mrs. Fang couldn't say anything else. Although she felt sorry in her heart, she still said generously, "It's okay. Although Dagui has been married once, he is a good person. Auntie understands that everything comes first and then ends. Who let Dagui meet you first? I wish you all the best, Auntie."
Seeing that Mrs. Fang was not angry with him, Zhang Qiuying finally felt relieved.
"Thank you Auntie. It's getting late. Auntie, please go get some rest. I have to go back to the house to be with Miaomiao."
"good."
After the two of them finished speaking, they went back to their houses.
…
Early the next morning, Lu Dagui originally wanted to find Yun Cuihe as a matchmaker to match Zhang Qiuying, but Yun Cuihe did not agree.
"Instead of looking for me, you should talk to that Fang family and let her eat your pig's trotters."
"Why?" Lu Dagui was puzzled.
Yun Cuihe patiently explained to Lu Dagui, "Originally, Mrs. Fang wanted to introduce Qiuying to her son as his wife, but you cut her off, which makes her feel a little unhappy. You had a relationship with her in the hospital before. Duo Yue is an acquaintance, and she lives in the same courtyard as Qiu Ying. You can find matchmaking with her, which can somewhat ease the relationship, and I think she will be happy with it."
Mrs. Fang was not a bad person in the first place. She was the one to preside over this marriage, so her unhappiness must have disappeared.
"Auntie is very thoughtful." Lu Dagui patted his thigh and stood up, "I'll go find her right now."
Yun Cuihe hurriedly shouted, "You haven't eaten yet."
Lu Dagui waved his hands while running.
"Don't worry, we'll eat when we get back."
Looking at his back, Yun Cuihe shook her head helplessly.
"See how anxious he is? I don't know, I thought my wife was going to run away."
Chu Yue smiled lightly and said, "Isn't it true? My wife is almost attracted by someone else. Of course he is anxious."
After dinner, Chu Yue gave the Yun Dabao brothers two instructions, then handed the two men the 420 taels they had paid to buy the land, and asked Lu Dagui to drive them to Shuiyue Village in a mule cart.
Yesterday, they bought so much stuff that they couldn't even pull it into one cart. Chu Yue asked them to bring the important stuff first, and asked Lu Dagui to go to Zhuangzi to help out and make more trips to deliver the stuff.
Mules are still of great use in the village. In addition to pulling heavy objects, they can also be used to plow the fields.
It's just that one mule alone can't handle the eighty acres of land. I think my uncle and uncle will make arrangements for it.
Chu Yue thought again, since Zhuangzi needed livestock, she might have to buy two cows to raise in Zhuangzi.
After seeing off the Yun Dabao brothers, Chu Yue led Hei Mu to the medical center.
As soon as they arrived at the door of the medical center, they saw two middle-aged people, a man and a woman, who were fairly well-dressed, emerging from the side of the medical center and quickly came to Chu Yue.
"Excuse me, is this Dr. Chu?"
The medical clinic had just opened, and there were no patients inside. Lu Yufang was the only one taking stock of yesterday's accounts behind the counter. Why didn't these two people go to the medical clinic to wait for her, instead of intercepting her outside?
Chu Yue looked at the two people in front of her with confusion on her face, "I am, are you two here to see a doctor or get medicine?"
The two people looked at each other, and the woman gritted her teeth and knelt down in front of Chu Yue.
"I also hope that Doctor Chu will not remember the faults of others and will not care about my son's faults."
Chu Yue raised her eyebrows.
"Madam, I don't quite understand what you said."
She vaguely guessed the identities of these two people.
"I am Yan Zichu's mother. Yesterday, someone from the government came and said that our Zichu broke into Xingyue Medical Center at night and was detained in the Yamen. He had already beaten 30 boards yesterday and has to be sent to him in two days. I had to spend two years in the county government jail before I could get out."
Yan's mother cried heartbrokenly as she spoke.
"Zi Chuan has never suffered such a crime. He was beaten thirty times yesterday and there was not even a doctor to treat his injuries. If he is still in jail for two years, not to mention delaying the scientific examination, he will be treated badly. I'm nineteen when I came out, and there is such a thing in the middle. It will be difficult to get a wife and have children in the future. I hope Dr. Chu will be accommodating and don't argue with him. Whatever you want us to pay, as long as we can do it. , I can promise you anything.”
Chu Yue was not moved by Yan's mother's plea.
"Everyone should be responsible for the wrong things they have done, and Mr. Yan is no exception. Since I have sent him to the government, I will not bail him out. This time he attempted to break into the house. If he had done something What? Who can I ask to reason with? Mrs. Yan and Master Yan should please go back."
Yan's mother pulled Chu Yue's skirt and begged, "Doctor Chu, I know it was Zi Chu's fault this time. Just forgive him this time. I promise there won't be another time."
Chu Yue was unmoved.
"As far as I know, Yan Zichu did a lot of bad things with Jiang Gaoyi in the past. They all say that a country's nature is easy to change and hard to change. I don't agree with Mrs. Yan's guarantee at all. I still have things to do, so I won't talk to the two. That’s a lot to say.”
After saying that, he turned around and was about to go to the medical center, but Yan Shitao took two steps forward and blocked Chu Yue's way.
"Doctor Chu! My husband and I are indeed here to apologize to you sincerely. I hope Dr. Chu will be merciful and spare my son and let my son live!"
Although it was still early, there were still people passing by nearby, and there were also many merchants who were open for business in the surrounding area.
Hearing the commotion at Xingyue Medical Center, they all gathered around to watch the excitement.
When Lu Yufang heard the noise outside, she put down her abacus and account books and left the hospital. Yesterday, Heimu and Zheng Yuan sent Yan Ziyi to the Yamen early in the morning. She didn't know what happened the day before yesterday, so when she saw Chu Chu When she saw Yan Shitao and Yan's mother kneeling on the ground, surprise flashed in her eyes.
"What's going on here?"
When Yan's mother saw her, she could no longer suppress the anger in her heart and pointed at her fiercely and scolded her.
"It's all you, a frivolous bitch who dislikes poverty and loves wealth! You and the young master of Yuan Xu's wife's family came to have a blind date with my son for some reason. I knew that a phoenix cannot fly from a hen's coop, and a phoenix cannot fly from a poor family." Come on, good stuff. I was blind and blind at the time, so I thought you were pretty good. If it weren't for you, my Ziyi wouldn't have come to Xingyue Medical Center. It's all your fault that he's in this situation! You are just a broom star, whoever marries you in the future will be unlucky!"
