Chapter 1014: Madam Liang Also Arrives
The old lady and Lanhua, "..." Is this really how you describe yourself?
Making a matchmaking proposal for you requires courage? Are you treating yourself as some kind of ferocious beast?
The old lady shot her an exasperated glare before continuing, "There’ve been quite a few proposals. Whenever a matchmaker comes, as soon as I hear it’s for you, I straightforwardly reject them without even listening. I use the excuse that you’ve yet to reach your coming-of-age. That way, people won’t even mention names or backgrounds, avoiding the awkwardness of outright rejection later. Otherwise, if I refuse after knowing the details, people might think you’re looking down on them. That wouldn’t be good."
Shu Yu gave the old lady a thumbs-up. "Grandmother, you’re truly wise."
Lanhua sighed in envy, "If only my mother could be like that."
What none of them realized was that, despite the old lady rejecting the proposals without even knowing the suitors’ identities, it still rubbed people the wrong way. Many perceived Shu Yu, the newly titled Village Chief, as incredibly arrogant.
In actuality, Shu Yu had fewer proposals compared to Shu You.
Since Shu Yu held the title of Village Chief, those whose conditions weren’t suitable didn’t dare approach her with marriage proposals. Shu You, however, was seen differently. In the eyes of many, she may have divorced, but she was still young and remained chaste, prompting many to try their luck, believing they had a chance.
