Chapter 272: Rejecting the Luo family

Chen Erniu hit the nail on the head. She did not want her sister to live in Su Yufang’s shadow for the rest of her life.

Perhaps Luo Chuan was not bad either. He was also innocent, but if he was with his sister, she would be compared by others.

Su Xiaoling also said, “Daniu, my thoughts are the same as Erniu’s. Moreover, Uncle and Auntie’s worries make sense. Luo Chuan is good, but there are also disadvantages.”

Chen Daniu smiled and said, “I actually think so too. I don’t want to compare myself to Su Yufang. When Father and Mother come back tonight, I’ll tell them that I don’t want to have anything to do with Su Yufang in my life.”

When Chen Daniu said that, Chen Erniu and Su Xiaoling also smiled. The three of them did not talk about this matter anymore and talked about something else.

Su Xiaolu was relieved to hear that. Chen Daniu’s choice was good.

Without Luo Chuan, there were other good men. Chen Daniu didn’t have to choose Luo Chuan.

At night, Chen Daniu told Madam Qian that she didn’t want to be with Luo Chuan.

Madam Qian heaved a sigh of relief and gently told Chen Daniu that she understood. She told Chen Daniu not to worry and that she would reject the offer.

Chen Daniu smiled and nodded before returning to her room.

After making a decision, Chen Daniu felt relieved. No one knew what the future would be like. She only knew that she was not so generous now. How could she not care about being compared to others?

Therefore, she might as well give up on this possibility.

Madam Qian and Chen Hu knew Chen Daniu’s intentions and did not say anything else.

Another day later, Madam Zhu came to the shop in the afternoon. When Su Sanlang and Chen Hu saw Madam Zhu, they also went out together.

At this moment, the sauerkraut and pickles were all sold out. Madam Zhu asked Madam Qian, “Qian, have you considered it?”

Madam Qian said to Madam Zhu seriously, “Sister, I’m sorry. My Daniu wants to stay single for a while longer.”

This was a rejection. Madam Zhu felt that it was a pity. She said, “Are you really not going to consider it any more? That child from the Luo family is really not bad. You have to know that life is much better without a mother-in-law.”

“Luo Chuan also suffered because of the Su family’s daughter. He’s also unlucky to have encountered such a thing. Moreover, the betrothal gift to the Su family was only three taels. Now, they’re offering your Daniu ten taels, that’s three times more.”

Madam Zhu naturally had to work very hard as a matchmaker.

Madam Qian still said firmly, “He might not be fated with my Daniu. He’s indeed pitiful, but I believe he will definitely meet a better woman in the future and be happy for the rest of his life.”

Seeing that Madam Qian was determined to reject her, Madam Zhu did not continue. She nodded. “Alright, we can’t force this matter. I’ll go back and tell them. Daniu is a good girl. If there are suitable people in the future, I’ll tell you again.”

Madam Qian smiled and nodded. “Alright, thank you.”

Madam Zhu smiled and waved her hand, indicating that there was no need. She was a matchmaker. If this family didn’t succeed, there were still other families with suitable girls and boys.

After Madam Zhu left, Madam Qian heaved a sigh of relief. Madam Zhu was a good person. The matter was resolved very well, and everyone felt comfortable.

Madam Zhao patted Madam Qian’s shoulder and smiled. “Don’t worry. Daniu’s good marriage is coming.”

Madam Qian smiled and nodded. “Sister-in-law is right.”

The two of them looked at each other and smiled. They did not say anything else and focused on doing their work.

Madam Zhu left the shop and went to see Madam Liu.

She was here today to ask for a reply, so Madam Liu waited in the town. She happened to need to buy some groceries anyway.

Seeing Madam Zhu, Madam Liu asked impatiently, “Sister, is it done?”

Madam Zhu patted Madam Liu’s hand and said, “Liu, they’re not fated to be. They’re very determined to reject the offer. I think it’s probably because of that incident. They’re afraid that others will keep comparing the girls.”

After all, Chen Daniu could have married Xu Bowen.

Madam Liu was a little disappointed. She sighed and said, “I expected it too. I just feel that it’s a pity.”

When she found out Chen Daniu’s identity, she felt that it probably wouldn’t work.

However, thinking about how calm Chen Daniu was and how she was a good girl, Madam Liu still decided to drag the matchmaker along to ask about it. Clearly, the outcome was just within her expectations.

“Looks like we’re not fated to be together.”

Madam Liu was helpless. It would be a lie to say that she was not disappointed.

Chen Daniu’s family wasn’t bad. For this reason, she took out three times the betrothal gift she had given Su Yufang to show how much she valued Chen Daniu. However, if this didn’t work, it was really not fate.

Chen Daniu and Luo Chuan were not fated to be married.

Since that was the case, there was no need to force it.

Madam Zhu smiled and said, “It’s not fate, so we won’t force it. The girl that the heavens have chosen for our Chuan is still ahead.”

Madam Liu nodded and said to Madam Zhu, “That’s right, so I’ll have to trouble you to take care of this matter. Find a good girl. It’s best if she’s diligent and motivated. She can work hard and lead a down-to-earth life.”

Madam Zhu smiled and agreed. “Alright, leave it to me. I’ll help you keep an eye out later. I’ll definitely find someone suitable.”

Madam Liu gave Madam Zhu 20 copper coins as a thank-you gift and left.

Madam Liu returned home and told Luo Chuan the results.

Luo Chuan’s expression was indifferent. “I’ll listen to Auntie. You can make the decision.”

The Chen family rejected him because they had their own considerations.

This did not mean anything. He was not the kind of person who was lazy and sly. It was naturally not difficult to find a wife.

Things that were not fated would not end well even if one forced it. Everything was up to fate.

When Madam Qian returned home, Chen Daniu couldn’t wait to ask, “Mother, how is it?”

Madam Qian patted Chen Daniu and said with a smile, “Don’t worry, I’ve already rejected it.”

Chen Daniu heaved a sigh of relief. It was good that she rejected it.

Chen Daniu was already in charge of the kitchen. At the same time, she taught Chen Erniu. The two sisters were busy in the kitchen.

Chen Daniu was relieved and returned to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

At about this time, Su Sanlang’s family was also preparing dinner.

In this free time, Su Xiaolu sparred with Su Chong. Su Xiaolu could already do dozens of moves under Su Chong.

Putting away her sword, Su Xiaolu said, “Brother, with your martial arts, you’ll definitely win the martial arts examination. I wonder how the other martial arts skills are? Next year, during your Fall Quarter Examinations, I want to go to Furongzhou with you to see the world.”

During the Fall Quarter Examinations next August, she would be 11 years old. According to the old man, she should go out to see the world.

Ever since last year’s training, the old man had urged her several times. It was just that she didn’t want to leave her family.

Su Chong nodded. “Alright, I’ll bring you along.”

Su Chong looked down at the sword in his hand and fell into deep thought. The martial arts examination might be more suitable for his path, but he wanted to obtain better achievements in his academics as well so that his hard work would not be in vain.
