Now it was Grandma Lu and Zhou Qiao's turn to fall silent, contemplating the matter.
Ah Xiang had managed to overcome many hardships over the years, and she had never relied on anyone during the most difficult times. Now that she had money and free time, why would she want to marry someone and take care of their whole family? It seemed like a rather burdensome choice.
Zhou Qiao sighed, acknowledging that finding a man who met all the criteria would be harder than finding a son-in-law for her sister. However, she mentioned someone they knew - Meng Yunzheng's father, Meng Pei. He seemed like a good candidate - good-natured, humorous, and of an appropriate age. Moreover, his son Meng Yunzheng was smart and successful, and there were no complicated relationships involved.
However, there was a problem - Meng Pei was deeply devoted to his wife, making it unlikely for him to marry someone else. Thus, finding a perfect match for Ah Xiang seemed almost impossible.
Grandma Lu suggested that they find someone without parents so that after Fu Xiangdi got married, Ah Xiang could be brought in to take care of the family. But Shu Yu didn't find it easy. Finding someone with good character and compatibility with Fu Xiangdi wouldn't be simple.
With these thoughts, Shu Yu shook her head, realizing she couldn't be of much help in this matter and continued to play with Xiao Zaozao.
Interestingly, Grandma Lu and Zhou Qiao, despite their age, were seriously discussing potential candidates.
Shu Yu smiled and thus returned to the county town.
Zhou Qiao settled down at the Lu residence. Xiao Zaozao clearly didn't remember staying at the Lu residence before, finding the environment very unfamiliar. When she saw the goldfish in the backyard pond, she was so excited that she seemed like she wanted to jump into the water.
But the Lu residence was large, and there were many people. Looking around in a new place each day was enough to keep the child entertained.
Zhou Qiao felt a touch of sadness, then she set out for Shishi Village.
Shu Yu had left even earlier, headed to Donggu County. She planned to bring Wei Ronghua, the shopkeeper, back with her.
But before that, she needed to check if this person was suitable. She couldn't simply believe him based on a letter from Master Miao.
Donggu County wasn't too far from Jiangyuan County; the two counties were adjacent.
However, the roads weren't in great condition these days. Shu Yu and Ying Xi urged their horses and hurried along, reaching the county town of Donggu County around noon.
Rather than immediately seeking out Wei Ronghua, Shu Yu first went to a restaurant for lunch. Afterward, she took her belongings and headed to the Wu residence.
While she had done business with the Wu family, she hadn't visited them before. The last time they discussed purchasing alfalfa, it was at the Wu family's stable, which was on the outskirts of the county town, a bit far away.
Now that she was in Donggu County and the young master of the Wu family had gone out of his way to inform the workshop, it was proper for her to pay a visit and express her gratitude.
Shu Yu's visit was quite sudden. She had thought that the young master of the Wu family might not be at home, but she unexpectedly encountered him right at the entrance of their residence.
Wu Fengyuan also hadn't expected to see Shu Yu here. When he saw her getting off the carriage and calling out to him, he was momentarily stunned, barely recognizing her.
