Heaven-Sent Farm Girl Builds Her Fortune And Captures His Heart-Chapter 222: Where’s Sister-in-law?

Shen Qinglan withdrew her gaze and was the first to enter the house.

Just as she stepped inside, Qiu Li followed closely behind with people entering.

After some introductions, the two sides finally sat down again.

The elderly woman looked at the young man sitting beside her and said with a smile, "Ah Xian, why don’t you take Mr. Shen and his friend for a stroll around the village?"

Qiu Xian stood up, agreed, and then looked at Shen Qingzhu and Xiao Li with a smile, "Would you two honor us with your company for a walk?"

Shen Qingzhu stood up and said with a smile, "I was just thinking of taking a stroll."

Once the trio left, the elderly woman pulled Qiu Li to sit beside her.

She looked at Dong Yao and Mrs. Jiang, who were sitting opposite, and said with a smile, "Our Li girl really doesn’t have much ability, but she’s obedient and sensible. If she doesn’t do well in the future, I’d trouble you to bear with her!"

"Of course!" Dong Yao said with a smile, "Such a well-behaved girl, I couldn’t like her enough, how could I find fault with her?"

The elderly woman laughed, "I see that your lad is also an honest person, quite good!"

Qiu Li blushed and lowered her head, sitting uneasily by the side.

Shen Qinglan sat obediently by and quietly listened as the elders praised each other’s younger generation.

Over there, the feast was soon set, and Liu Shuanghong quickly came to call them, and Shen Qingzhu and the others, who went with Qiu Xian to tour the village, were called back as well.

After both sides finished eating and drinking, and chatted a while longer, the deal was settled.

The date was set for early June this year.

Shen Qinglan couldn’t help but reflect; this was what’s nice about ancient times, no need to spend money on courtship.

After bidding farewell to the Qiu Family, Shen Qinglan and the group took the carriage down the mountain.

After dropping Mrs. Jiang back to Lishui Village and returning to town, it was nearly dusk.

As the carriage stopped, the two youngsters, Ping and An, were already encircling them, eagerly asking Shen Qingzhu, "Second Brother, we heard you’re bringing the sister-in-law home. Where is she?"

"Nonsense!" Shen Qingzhu coughed lightly, pushing them along as he walked, "Hurry back to review your lessons, children’s matters are not for you to ask about."

"So, you’re not bringing sister-in-law?" Shen Qingping said with a disappointed face, "I knew it, Second Brother is so clumsy, there’s no way we’d have a sister-in-law so quickly!"

Shen Qingzhu’s face darkened, while Shen Qinglan and Dong Yao couldn’t help but laugh lightly.

"Who told you that?" Shen Qingzhu asked.

"Our second uncle told us!" Honest Shen Qing’an was the first to sell out his teammate.

With a face full of helplessness, Shen Shan laughed and looked at Dong Yao, asking, "How did things go?"

"It’s settled." Dong Yao smiled, "The date is set too, early June."

Shen Shan nodded, looking at Shen Qingzhu said, "You’re seventeen now, it’s time to start a family. Don’t be like your second cousin who acted like marrying was akin to being thrown into a sea of fire."

Shen Qingzhu heard this and made an excuse to wash up before quickly fleeing.

"Oh~" Shen Shan chuckled lightly, "This kid gets shy already?"

Shen Qinglan also laughed, then said to the two of them, "Father, Mother, it’s getting late, you should wash up and rest early. I’ll head back."

"Go ahead." Dong Yao teased, "I sent you to talk with your future sister-in-law, and you didn’t say a word. I should have sent your elder sister or cousin instead."

Shen Qinglan chuckled lightly; she was not one to initiate conversations, usually waiting for others to talk to her.

Dong Yao sighed lightly, waved her hand, "Alright, hurry back to tidy up, and rest early."

"Mm!"

Shen Qinglan responded and then returned to her East Wing room.
