Chapter 264: Sending Off Dad and Mom (8)_1
Jiujin was handsome, and he was a diligent and hard-working young man. The number of families who wished to establish a bond with them through marriage must be countless.
After hearing Old Master Zhou’s words, the daughters-in-law all expressed their joy and assured that they would inquire thoroughly once they returned home. They were certain they could find a suitable girl for him.
Unexpectedly, Jiujin flatly refused them. Intrigued, everyone asked him why, only to find out that this young man already had a crush on someone.
The elders were all puzzled about what kind of girl could capture the heart of this seemingly impassive young man. But when Cai Wei arrived, they understood what excellent taste he had!
Jiujin couldn’t believe that Cai Wei would come to Zhoujia Village to find him. After seeing her, he was so thrilled that he couldn’t speak and blushed while giggling foolishly at Cai Wei, making all of the elders laugh heartily.
Aunt Zhou was also overjoyed to see Cai Wei. She warmly held her hand and introduced her to the elders of the family.
"This is your eldest aunt, this is your second aunt, this is your..."
The elders in the Zhou family were very kind. Although they didn’t have much money, for Cai Wei’s first visit, several aunts still managed to put together eight taels of silver, wrapped in red paper, as a token gift.
Cai Wei also asked Jiujin to bring the vegetables she had brought from home back to the carriage.
When the Zhou family saw so many vegetables, they were shocked. They knew how precious vegetables were in the north during winter. The two large bags this little girl brought out must have cost a lot of silver!
Aunt Zhou proudly said: "The vegetables from Wei’er didn’t cost any silver. She grew them herself in a side room."
