Chapter 264: Whose Daughter Is That? 2 Chen Shi was a little vexed.

When Madam Liu heard Chen Daniu’s voice, she immediately added, “Girl, sorry to disturb you. We don’t mean anything bad. We just want to thank your brother again. If he hadn’t told us out of kindness today, we would have suffered in silence.”

Chen Shi frowned and said, “I don’t want you to thank me. Leave quickly.”

Madam Liu took 20 copper coins and stuffed them into Chen Shi’s arms. Chen Shi did not take them and the money fell to the ground.

Chen Shi was very vexed. He had said that he didn’t want them, but she still wanted to give them to him. Now, it had fallen to the ground.

Chen Shi did not want Madam Liu and Luo Chuan to know their family at all, but now, he was making things worse.

Chen Daniu had already walked to the door. She pulled Chen Shi behind her and protected him. Then, she opened the door. As she helped pick up the money, she said to Madam Liu, “My younger brother made an unintentional mistake. I hope Auntie won’t take it to heart. Take back the money. It’s inconvenient at home, so I won’t invite you in.”

Chen Daniu helped pick up the copper coins that had fallen to the ground and handed them to Madam Liu. Her expression was calm, expressing her alienation and etiquette.

Madam Liu took the money and understood what Chen Daniu meant. She smiled gently and said, “It’s okay. If it’s inconvenient, we won’t disturb you anymore. This small sum of money is a thank-you gift for your brother. He really helped us a lot.”

Twenty copper coins was not a small number. The reason why Madam Liu was so willing was that she was sincerely grateful. It was because she knew the truth that she had confidence and felt happy and the matter could be resolved so well. She had taken back all the betrothal money, and the Su family was in the wrong.

Chen Daniu waved her hand and said, “There’s really no need. We won’t accept it.”

Seeing that Chen Daniu was very determined, Madam Liu said gratefully, “Alright then. Anyway, I’m really grateful. Sorry to disturb you. Goodbye.”

Chen Daniu did not want it, and there was an obvious coldness in it. Madam Liu could not give it to her forcefully.

After saying that, she left with Luo Chuan.

Chen Daniu also closed the door.

Seeing Chen Shi’s apologetic expression, Chen Daniu said gently, “It’s okay. You didn’t do anything wrong.”

If she were Madam Liu, she would be grateful if someone told her the truth like this. It was normal for Madam Liu to thank her.

Chen Shi nodded and instructed Chen Daniu to rest well before going to the backyard to feed the chickens.

Luo Chuan and Madam Liu also went home.

Madam Liu suddenly said, “That girl just now was not bad. If not for the fact that it’s not suitable now, I would have asked about it.”

Luo Chuan didn’t feel anything.

Madam Liu looked at Luo Chuan. “Chuan, what do you think of that girl? If you like her, I’ll get a matchmaker to ask around later.”

Most of the time, one would only know what the other party looked like through the matchmaker. Now, there was no need for that. Luo Chuan had already met her. If he felt that it was okay, she would ask around. She still had to settle the marriage.

Luo Chuan thought about the girl he had seen just now. He didn’t like her much, but he didn’t hate her either. Chen Daniu was calm and composed, and she looked like a smart person.

While Luo Chuan was thinking, Madam Liu continued, “I don’t know which family that girl is from. She looks calm and composed and is a smart woman. Such a woman can manage a family well. She didn’t even look at you twice, which proves that she’s polite and has a good character. She didn’t invite us into the family rashly, which proves that her family taught her well.”

“Chuan, think about it carefully.”

Madam Liu did not notice any details at that time, but now that she thought about it carefully, she was extremely satisfied.

A woman with such etiquette was the best choice as a wife.

Her appearance was not very beautiful, but she was not ugly either. As long as she was a smart woman, her ordinary appearance would become more pleasing to the eye.

Luo Chuan said, “I’ll listen to Auntie.”

What Madam Liu said made sense. Luo Chuan thought about it and felt that it was not bad, so he agreed.

Madam Liu smiled. “Alright, Auntie will get a matchmaker to ask around and see whose family she’s from and if she’s married. If she’s not, Auntie will get someone to ask and see if it works.”

Luo Chuan nodded. “Okay.”

“This time, I must find out clearly. Auntie will definitely not let the same thing happen again.”

The thought of this matter made her heart ache. She would not let the same thing happen again, so this time, she had to find out everything.

She didn’t have a son and Luo Chuan’s parents passed away early. She and Luo Chuan’s mother were sisters-in-law. She only gave birth to a daughter and that year, her body was injured and she couldn’t give birth anymore.

When Luo Chuan’s mother passed away, she entrusted Luo Chuan to her and let him be her son.

He was her biological nephew and their relationship was good, to begin with, so Madam Liu naturally agreed.

Luo Chuan was the only boy in the Luo family. Madam Liu wanted him to find a healthy woman, get married, and have children. It would be a blessing to have more children. That was why she wanted to break off the marriage when the news of Su Yufang’s illness came. She didn’t expect that the illness was fake.

It was a good thing that they found out the truth. Otherwise, she would be furious when they found out in a few years.

This was still a good ending. This time, she had to find out more.

Luo Chuan couldn’t help but smile. As he walked, he said, “Auntie, there’s no hurry. Take your time.”

Madam Liu treated him like her own son, so he naturally treated her as his biological mother. Marriage was a big matter, and it was decided by his parents. He believed that Madam Liu would find him a good wife.

Madam Liu was touched and relieved by Luo Chuan’s trust. She felt that her mission was even more important.

Madam Liu smiled and said, “Okay, Auntie will definitely find you a good wife. With a virtuous wife at home, you won’t have to worry about anything.”

Luo Chuan smiled and the two of them rushed home.

Su Xiaolu knocked on the door outside the house and asked softly, “Master Gui You, can I come in?”

“Come in.”

Gui You’s voice sounded.

Su Xiaolu opened the door and entered. Gui You was meditating to cultivate his Internal Breath. When he heard Su Xiaolu walk to his side, he retracted his internal energy and opened his eyes. “What’s the matter?”

Su Xiaolu smiled sweetly and said, “Master Gui You, Uncle Hu’s son, Chen Shi, wants to practice martial arts. Can I teach him?”

Gui You looked at Su Xiaolu. “You’re good at making trouble. You haven’t even graduated and you already want to take in a disciple.”

Su Xiaolu knew that there was no reason for her to do this. She lowered her head.

Gui You saw that she was about to cry. Could it be that she was becoming more and more like a woman as she grew older? Women always liked to cry. Gui You coughed lightly and said, “It’s not impossible for you to teach him, but I have to make one thing clear. You can’t slack off for your own practice at all.”

Su Xiaolu looked up, her eyes sparkling as she jumped up excitedly. “Alright, Master Gui You, don’t worry. I definitely won’t fall behind in my sword practice.”

She was very happy. She was already prepared for Gui You not to agree. She did not expect the surprise to come so quickly.

Gui You was puzzled. Wasn’t she about to cry just now? Why was she so happy so quickly?

Heh, women really change emotions faster than flipping a book.
