"In addition to making maltose, I can also catch fish to make snacks. I am definitely better than that scholar."
Tao Zhu: "..."
He would not use gorgeous words to describe his mood at this moment.
He felt like he wanted to jump up, and he couldn't suppress the upturned corners of his mouth: "Is the method you said true?"
Li Qiao nodded: "It's true. I'll start making it tonight. It will be ready in a few days."
"Then, when will you come to propose marriage? Hurry up!"
This man liked him blindly for no reason, so he had to hurry up lest he suddenly regain his sight.
Seeing the enthusiasm and joy in Tao Zhu's eyes, Li Qiao couldn't help but laugh: "How about we propose marriage later? I won't find a matchmaker either. I'll go with my elder brother."
“You still have to pay to find a matchmaker, so it’s better if you don’t find one!”
"Then you drink chicken soup and eat this rich cake. I'm going to find my brother now."
Li Qiao pointed to the clay pot in the basket on his back.
"I understand, go find your brother quickly."
As Tao Zhu spoke, he actually pushed him and urged him to leave quickly.
How could Li Qiao miss this opportunity? She grabbed his hand and pulled him into her arms.
Before the person in his arms could express any other emotions, he let go, turned around and ran away.
"Stop working, go home after eating, and wait for us to come to propose marriage!"
Tao Zhu: "..."
He felt like he was in a furnace, and his whole body was about to burn.
But he didn't lower his head, and looked straight at Li Qiao's running figure, with a silly smile on his red cheeks.
God knows how uncomfortable he felt when he found out someone came to propose marriage last night.
He used to hope that someone would come to propose marriage, but last night he just felt suffocated and had to open his mouth wide to breathe.
Who knew there would be twists and turns!
hey-hey.
Let's talk about Li Qiao. He quickly found Li Liang and got straight to the point, telling him that he was going to the Tao family to propose marriage.
After hearing this, Li Liang seemed to be struck by lightning: "What did you say?!"
The person Xiaoqiao likes is actually Tao Zhu? !
"Brother Zhu saved me."
Li Qiao told the story of the day he traveled through time. Of course, he concealed the fact that the original person was dead. He only said that he was so hungry that he stepped on the air and hit a tree and fainted. Tao Zhu gave them a vegetable nest, so he had Strength down the mountain.
As soon as this reason came out, Li Liang suddenly felt regretful and guilty: "It's my fault that I'm the eldest brother. I shouldn't..."
"Hey, brother, it's all over, and I'm not angry. Let's go to Brother Zhu's house to propose marriage, or he will be snatched away!"
Li Qiao quickly interrupted him.
"Ah???" Li Liang was confused. How could Tao Zhu be snatched away?
Soon, he realized that this was wrong. Brother Zhu was kind-hearted and it was normal for someone to like him!
"Okay, let's go home and change into clean clothes. Your sister-in-law has saved a few taels of silver. Let's take it out for the time being. We can't..."
"No, no! Tao Shu wants a recipe for maltose." Li Qiao interrupted him again.
"Ah???" Li Liang was confused again.
"Ahem, let's talk as we walk."
Li Qiao pulled him towards the village.
Li Liang had no choice but to ask Wang Guihua for a few explanations.
When Wang Guihua heard this, her brows knitted into knots.
The recipe for maltose?
But she didn't say anything, she just told Li Liang to dress more cleanly and speak more appropriately.
So, brothers Li Qiao and Li Liang hurried home. They met fellow villagers on the way and said hello. Li Qiao didn't hide it, and said happily that he was going to Tao's house to propose marriage to Brother Zhu.
His words were like firecrackers, which made the villagers look confused.
Looking for Brother Zhu to propose marriage?
Did they hear it right? Li Qiao, whose net worth soared and became a hot commodity within a few days, likes Tao Zhu?
...Is it Brother Zhu instead of Brother Tao?
If there wasn't too much work in the fields, they would have to follow and have a look!
Big news!
Li Qiao was in a very good mood. After returning home, he changed into a clean robe, carried five kilograms of Shaqima and ten fish, and then went to Tao Zhu's house with Li Liang.
It was evening at this time, and some villagers had already returned home. Seeing the two brothers' appearance, and learning that Li Qiao was actually going to propose marriage to Tao Zhu, they couldn't help but follow them.
When Li Qiao and Li Liang arrived at Tao Zhu's house, they were followed by several people.
The door of Tao Zhu's courtyard was wide open. When the group came to the door, they saw the four members of the Tao family sitting in the courtyard.
There were two other people sitting next to them.
One was a woman about the same age as Tao's mother. She was dressed in shabby clothes, but she had a shrewd look on her face.
One is a young man with a thin figure and fair skin who can be easily identified as a scholar.
Li Qiao could not help but narrow his eyes.
What a coincidence.

The author has something to say:
Proposed marriage!
Isn't this a slow process?
Asking for flowers and collection~
Chapter 15 (Edit) He decides Brother Zhu’s marriage. Brother Zhu is back.
Li Qiao knew this young man in the courtyard.
To be precise, they knew each other. This young man's name was Gao Zhiyuan, and he was his classmate. He had already passed the county and prefectural examinations for children's students. As long as he passed the college examination, he would be a scholar.
Li Qiao frowned slightly.
Gao Zhiyuan was born as a child, and his original body was nothing.
Moreover, Gao Zhiyuan also knows how to make maltose.
"Hey, Li Qiao?"
Tao Shu saw Li Qiao at a glance and stood up from the bench curiously.
This Li Qiao's level of excellence is equal to his, and is often mentioned by the villagers. Therefore, just as the original person knows about his situation, he also knows about Li Qiao's situation.
Li Qiao inexplicably changed his temper and brain. More importantly, Li Qiao seemed to have started a sweet little business.
His wife Dongmei likes sweets the most. He was planning to take some time to see what Li Qiao was selling, but now Li Qiao came to his house?
Moreover, look at Li Qiao's posture, holding a fish in one hand and a large oil paper bag in the other. This is...
Li Qiao raised a gentle smile and explained the purpose of his visit: "Brother Shu, I'm here to propose marriage. Where is Brother Zhu? Isn't he at home?"
"?"
Tao Shu looked confused.
Did he hear it correctly?
Brother Zhu's ugliness, which looks more like a man than him, actually attracted two families to come to propose marriage?
Lai Dongmei and Old Man Tao were also shocked and speechless. As for Old Mrs. Tao, she couldn't help but glance at the sunset hanging on the horizon.
The sun didn’t come out from the west today either!
Gao Zhiyuan, on the other hand, shrank his pupils and looked at Li Qiao carefully.
Isn't this Li Qiao dead?
In his previous life, his mother casually told him about Li Qiao's death a month after it was just a matter of country affairs.
After many years, he had long forgotten Li Qiao.
If Tao Shu had not called Li Qiao just now, he would not have remembered this classmate!
However, in the few memories he had left, this Li Qiao was always hunchbacked and timid in the private school, but the Li Qiao in front of him had a straight back and a high-spirited look, and there was no trace of his former self.
After looking carefully for a few times, he said with some uncertainty: "Are you Li Qiao?"
"Brother Gao, we haven't seen each other for a long time, and you don't recognize me anymore?"
Li Qiao said with a smile.
But he was secretly wary in his heart. The way Gao Zhiyuan looked at him was wrong and too complicated.
Others faced his transformation, but they didn't look like this.
"...You have changed so much that I didn't recognize you at first sight."
Gao Zhiyuan frowned: "Are you here to propose marriage?"
"Yes. Why are you here, brother Gao?" Li Qiao admitted generously, then asked pretending not to know.
"I'm here to discuss with the Tao family about my marriage to Brother Zhu."
