“Uncle, what do you mean?” Hu Chun asked in confusion.

“You might not know, but many people have asked about you in the past few days. One of them has even sent someone to pa.s.s an invitation to marriage.

“However, 1 refused to accept it. I said I’d respond after you asked.”

“Can you tell me who it is?”

“Zhang Qingqing. Her family is not from one of the village’s two major clans; she has a mother and a younger brother.

“I’ve noticed that young lady before. She is capable, and her appearance isn’t bad, but her personality is a little fiery.” At this point, his uncle told him about Zhang Qingqing’s situation, including how she refused to be sold and went to the Gu family to force them to sell her white potatoes.

“This girl is fearless.” Hu Chun expressed his admiration.

“That is correct. That’s why I said she’s a little hot-headed but capable of supporting a small family. Which one would you pick if you had a choice?” Uncle Hu inquired.

“We’ve never even met.”

“What’s the big deal? The Zhang family has already sent the invitation.

“The Gu family also hinted enough. You must provide me with a firm response.

“What would I reply if the Gu family extends an invitation?

“However, if you choose the daughter of the Gu family, you must know that her family is guilty to the imperial courts. I’m afraid it will have an impact on your future generations’ chances of entering the scholar examinations.”

“Every emperor has different courtiers. n.o.body knows for certain.”

“So you’re biased against Gu family?”

“Yes, the Gu family is guilty, but she is not.

“She also grew up in the capital and seen a lot. She could read and write, which would be a ma.s.sive help if I married her.

“Besides, the Gu family’s circ.u.mstances aren’t doing badly. At the very least, they will not drag us down.” Hu Chun elaborated on his reasoning.

This was also why, when invited, he agreed to play chess with Father Gu.

Uncle Hu immediately recognized Hu Chun’s interest in the Gu family’s daughter.

“You’re right, but marriage isn’t a business. You cannot evaluate it solely based on your benefits. Furthermore, her mother is difficult to deal with, so you should consider it carefully.”

“Don’t worry, uncle. I’m no longer a young man. I see what you’re saying.

“As for her mother, I’m aware of her, particularly the heinous things she did to Doctor Gu and his wife.

“However, she is kind to her children.

“I’ve also heard she’s been picky about Gu Chengye’s marriage for over two years.”

“Yeah. Anyway, since you are inclined toward the Gu family’s daughter, you should get to know her brother better and understand that girl’s personality.”

“Oh, 1 think you might need to a.s.sist me in getting a message to Uncle Gu.” Hu Chun asked for help from his uncle.

“About?”

“My ex-fiance. Tell him about the situation and rea.s.sure him.”

“You appear to be serious about this, kiddo.

“OK, leave this to me. Over the next two days, 1’11 find someone to deliver the message to him.”

Hu Chun went to Zhou Ying the next morning to buy some beef.

This was due to his inability to feed so many people with the food supplies he had. Furthermore, the food he had was of poor quality, which wouldn’t aid the worker’s strength in building houses.

“Beef and mutton are expensive. You should think about it carefully.” Zhou Ying recognized his intent.

“The key is that you must stick to this menu once you start. This requires at least three heads of cattle.”

“I’ve given it some thought. n.o.body will be able to work if there is no meat. However, 1 will need your a.s.sistance in selecting two fatter cattle. At the very least, there will be more lard.”

“You’re practical.” Zhou Ying paused briefly before suggesting, “It isn’t easy for you either. Okay, 1’11 sell you the cattle for 20 taels of silver each. I’ll also sell you some sheep for five taels if you want them.

“1 might also be able to use their blood to make blood tofu..”
