Peasant Woman's Decreed Life as a Wife

Chapter 1385: Chapter 1382: Facing Each Other

Fearing the chill wind might easily cause a cold, she hesitated for a long while before asking for opinions in a soft voice.

“But the kite…” Yang Shan didn’t want the kite to fall down.

“There is wind now, just tie it to a tree, and it won’t fall.” It was only after she agreed that Chu Zhang took the kite and tied it up.

“Thank you, Second Brother Chu.”

On one side, the youths were enjoying themselves.

On the ladies’ side.

Madam Wang took the birth chart of Yang Shan from Lady Yang and went to find someone to match it with another.

“I have seen the host.”

The host nodded, “Madam need not be polite.”

“I will have a look for you right now.”

With that, he took the note bearing both their birth charts.

Fifteen minutes later, the host stroked his beard, his face showing pleasure, “Congratulations, Madam, a predestined good match, harmony as husband and wife, a happy marriage.”

“Really?” Madam Wang was naturally superstitious; hearing the host say so, she couldn’t stop smiling, “Thank you, Master.”

She added some more money for incense oil, thinking that if her son’s match was also favorable, the marriage arrangement could be settled.

Madam Wang hurried back to the side rooms of the rear courtyard; Madam Zhang, Lady Yang, and others who were listening to Buddhist scriptures also returned.

Xiang Ling’er held her son, chatting with the elders.

After Madam Wang arrived, a maidservant proactively offered her tea.

“Why haven’t the children come back yet? Shall we all try the vegetarian meal at noon?” Madam Zhang asked with a smile.

She was very familiar with Madam Wang and knew from her expression that she was satisfied.

“Yes, yes, it’s rare for us to come out, and I’ve heard that Deming Temple’s vegetarian food is exceptionally tasty – today we are in for a treat,” agreed Lady Yang with a smile.

Old Madame Du nodded in agreement on the side, mentioning that it was the Yang Family that had initiated the matchmaking. She had a good relationship with the Chu family and was willing to give it a try. After all, she was satisfied with the character of the Yang Family. If she could help bring them together and it was successful, naturally, it would be a joyous event. If not, it would not affect her relationship with the Chu family.

It would not damage the relationship with the county magistrate’s family either; she was quite open-minded, occasionally playing with her grandson, creating a very harmonious atmosphere.

Meanwhile, the maidservants went to call the young people back.

Chu Jin knew he was helping his cousin with the matchmaking and was very cooperative. After coming down, he went to the temple to pray for safety talismans for all family members.

After lunch, the families left the temple, got on their carriages, and returned to the county together.

Lady Yang, upon returning to the county government.

First tidied up, then summoned Yang Shan.

“Mother.” Yang Shan entered joyfully, seeing her mother sitting by the tea table; she ran over with small steps, laughed coyly, and began pouring tea for her.

Lady Yang reached out to touch her head, asking affectionately, “Did you have fun today?”

“It was fun!” Yang Shan’s eyes sparkled as she showed her dimples, “Today, I managed to fly the kite high, I was so good at it.”

“I hear that you were even complaining about your elder brother,” said Lady Yang.

Yang Shan’s cheeks immediately flushed, “Mother, I wasn’t complaining about elder brother; it’s just that I feel he’s not good at playing – all he does is study.”

“Do you like the Chu family’s young master?” Lady Yang had seen all sorts of her daughter’s capriciousness, knew she had a good heart, and because of the doting of the family elders, she was much like an unspoiled child, extremely innocent in nature.

A girl like that could only marry a man of good nature to live a worry-free life.

When she heard that the two Chu brothers were looking for matches, the idea occurred to her.

She had someone inquire privately about the dispositions of the two men.

At a glance, Chu Sheng from the third household naturally had better learning and broader insights, but he was more ambitious than Chu Zhang, the eldest son of the second household.
