"What's wrong with being young? If you think it's too young, you can take her over and raise her for a few years before consummating the marriage." Ma Cuilan said nonchalantly, as if this kind of thing was commonplace.
"No! Absolutely not. If you follow me, won't you delay other people's children?" Xu San was still arguing, thinking that he must ask the organization for help in this matter.
"Why is it delayed? If you don't talk about the popular food, you won't be bullied. That's for sure."
"Sister-in-law, I'm afraid that if I die one day, won't I be in trouble for others?" Xu Sanyi gritted his teeth and expressed his worries.
After Xu San finished speaking, the room became quiet, and the atmosphere became depressing.
Ma Cuilan didn't speak for a long time, and she didn't know what to think. After a long time, she slowly said, "Brother, don't say those unlucky words." Her tone was a bit reproachful, as if if she said it today, it would be effective tomorrow.
Xu San smiled and said that he was not joking.
Ma Cuilan raised her eyebrows slightly, "Then I should marry a wife as soon as possible and leave some incense to your Xu family."
"This..." Xu San once again didn't know what to say. It seemed that Ma Cuilan was determined to get her a kiss.
Looking at Ma Cuilan's appearance, Xu San couldn't help but think of the days when she was forced to get married.
I sighed in my heart and stopped refuting, thinking that I would find a reason to refuse when the time comes. Fortunately, I have experience in this area.
Ma Cuilan packed the red paper and stared at Xu San, "You are not young anymore. It's time to think about your life-long affairs."
Xu San nodded perfunctorily.
"You listen to me on this matter, otherwise you won't come to my house." Ma Cuilan said in an angry tone.
"Okay, okay, it all depends on my sister-in-law. I just ask her not to pick the one who is only twelve years old."
"This is not up to you!"
What a sin, Xu San felt that the world was too unfair to him.
"Can't I choose it myself?"
"Okay, you choose!" With that said, Ma Cuilan took out the horoscopes of the four girls again and placed them in front of Xu San, letting him choose.
Looking at the four pieces of red paper on the table, Xu San couldn't bear to put it down. One was 12, two were 15, and one was 16. In Xu San's eyes, these were all underage children.
Seeing Xu San's hesitant look, Ma Cuilan said, "Why didn't you choose? Are you still thinking about the girl from Fengwei Lane?"
"Yes!" Xu San gritted his teeth and said to himself, at the worst, he would report to the organization and take Sister Hua over. It just so happened that Xiaohong had learned almost enough Japanese and could be transferred.
"Then take it back and show it to my sister-in-law!"
"Okay!" Xu San continued to say through gritted teeth.
"If you really like her, then hurry up and take her back. What's the point of leaving her in a place like that?" Ma Cuilan preached seriously.
"Okay, I'll go tonight!"
"Well, that's pretty much it. Hurry up and eat the noodles. If you don't eat the noodles, you'll be in trouble."
"Hmm~" Xu San agreed, picked up the bowl, and hurriedly finished the meal.
"I'm full!" Xu San wiped her lips, "I'm going to get ready and go to Fengwei Alley."
After saying that, he turned around and left the house, came to the yard, put the little girl on his back, and carried her over the wall.
Back at home, Xu San's heart was still pounding. She felt that dealing with Ma Cuilan was more difficult than the Japanese.
Why did she suddenly think of kissing her? Could it be that some rumors had reached her ears?
The little girl took off her shoes, held the edge of the kang with her little hands and rushed to the kang. Then she turned around, sat by the kang and asked, "Uncle, why did you ask me to come to your house?"
"I'm here to ask you to help me with something," Xu San said.
"Whatever happened, I'll take care of it!" The little girl patted her chest and said seriously.
"Your mother wants to marry your uncle because he wants him to get married. Do you know about the marriage?" Xu San continued.
The little girl nodded first, then shook her head.
"Uncle doesn't want to get married or get married now!"
The little girl nodded and continued to look at Xu San seriously.
Xu San looked at the little girl and let out a breath, "Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, your mother may take you out to go on a blind date for your uncle."
"What is a blind date?"
"What about this...that is to say, your mother is going to see if your uncle's future wife is suitable for you on your uncle's behalf."
The little girl blinked, not understanding what Xu San said.
"Does your mother definitely take you with her when she goes out?" Seeing that the little girl didn't understand, Xu San decided to explain from another perspective.
"That's for sure!" the little girl replied simply.
"If she takes you with her, you will definitely meet an older sister, or an aunt, in short, a young girl."
When she heard that Xu San was going to marry a wife, the little girl immediately became excited and said, "Oh, is that your wife?"
"It's all a matter of what you say then!" Xu San first put a hat on the little girl.
Hearing Xu San's words, the little girl's eyes immediately lit up, "Really? If I like her, will she be your wife?"
"That... uncle didn't mean that." Xu San quickly corrected him, fearing that the little girl might accidentally mess up his original plan, "Uncle means, no matter whose girl you are looking at, you I have to keep secretly with your mother, you don’t like her.”
"Why, isn't it bad to have a wife?"
Xu San touched his chin and said matter-of-factly, "Well... uncle doesn't like young people."
"Oh, I know, you like my mother!"
Xu San's brows twitched. Although he knew that he and Ma Cuilan had some gossip, he didn't expect that these gossips still reached the little girl's ears.
Xu San leaned forward and sat next to the little girl, "Did you hear that?"
"Aunt Wang, Aunt Song, many people have said it. They said you slept with mother."
"Don't listen to those old ladies' nonsense. Your mother and I are innocent."
"I know, uncle has never slept at my house." The little girl said seriously.
Xu San let out a long breath. Fortunately, the little girl is sensible and doesn't follow the wind like other children.
"It's good that you know! Remember, you can't tell your mother about this." Xu San touched the little girl's head and said seriously again.
"I will not say!"
"Okay, have you remembered everything that uncle told you?" Xu San brought the matter back to the point.
"Remember, if Mom takes me to choose a wife for you, it will be my decision!"
"Yes, no matter who you are watching, you must tell your mother that you don't like it when you come back."
"Okay, take care of it on me!" the little girl said honestly, but in her heart she was thinking about her little Jiujiu, thinking that since Uncle Xu doesn't like those young ladies, then I, Xu Dongmei, must help him again. Choose, choose a good wife that he likes and I like too.
Seeing this, Xu San felt relieved a little.
The little girl's words are still very useful to Ma Cuilan. I hope she made the right move.
