After Transmigrating, She Became A Little Widow In A Farming Family

Chapter 31



Lao Du's suspicions were correct; Du Wei hadn't gone up the mountain as usual. Instead, he headed towards Lu Suniang's home, carrying his bow and arrow to avoid raising suspicion.

As he hurried towards Lu Suniang's home, he was intercepted by Aunt Yang, who had just left her house. She smiled and said, "Du Wei, you're going up the mountain again! Don't go, I need to talk to you about something!"

Du Wei looked anxious, glancing at Lu Suniang's home in the distance. "Aunt, can it wait? I have something to attend to!"

Aunt Yang followed his gaze and quickly understood his intentions. "Oh, don't worry! Lu Suniang and her son are fine. My daughter-in-law has been keeping them company these past two days. Come, let's go back and talk."

Aunt Yang grabbed Du Wei's arm and pulled him towards the Du family home. Du Wei hesitated, "Aunt, I still want to take a look."

Aunt Yang reassured him, "I'll tell you everything, and then you can go see for yourself." She continued to pull him along, refusing to let go.

Aunt Yang had originally planned to find Du Wei when Lu Suniang agreed to remarry, but upon learning that Du Wei was out, she waited two more days.

Aunt Yang didn't know Du Wei had returned, but she was on her way to ask about him. She bumped into him on the road and was pulling him towards the Du family home.

"Hey, Aunt Yang, where are you taking Du Wei?" someone asked curiously.

"We're going to the Du family home, it's a good thing," Aunt Yang replied with a smile. Du Wei, feeling embarrassed, asked Aunt Yang to let him go, and she released his arm.

Aunt Yang thought to herself, "This young man is still shy. He's about to get married, and he's still so bashful. I wonder how he'll be on his wedding night." She glanced at Du Wei, who felt increasingly embarrassed.

When they arrived at the Du family home, Lao Du was resting in the courtyard. Aunt Yang greeted him, and he invited her to sit down.

Lao Du was surprised to see his son return so soon with someone. "What's going on?" he asked Du Wei.

Aunt Yang began to explain, "I was looking for you, Du Wei, because I have something to discuss with you. I didn't expect to run into you on the road." She smiled and continued, "I've been thinking about Lu Suniang's remarriage, and I wanted to talk to you about it."

Du Wei shook his head, indicating he didn't know what was going on.

Aunt Yang didn't let them guess and instead explained her purpose. "Lao Du, I've come to congratulate you. What you've been hoping for has finally happened."

Lao Du immediately understood and became excited. "You mean... she's agreed!"

Du Wei still looked confused, watching his father's excited expression without understanding what was happening.

Aunt Yang laughed and said, "Look at this young man, still clueless!"

Lao Du chuckled and said, "You silly boy, go pour tea for Aunt Yang!"

Du Wei finally went into the kitchen, still looking confused.

After he left, Aunt Yang told Lao Du, "Lao Du, she has agreed, but there are some conditions. I don't know if you can accept them."

Lao Du replied seriously, "What conditions? As long as they're not too excessive, we'll definitely accept them."

Aunt Yang thought that the conditions weren't too excessive, except that sending the child to school might be difficult, as it would require a significant amount of money.

Du Wei had not completely left for the kitchen. He turned back as soon as he heard her.

"Aunt Yang, Aunt Yang, has Lu Suniang agreed?" Du Wei asked excitedly, grabbing Aunt Yang's arm before she could even respond.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Aunt Yang pretended to cough and said, "Oh, I think I've eaten too much salt today, I'm so thirsty!"

Du Wei quickly offered to get her water and went back into the kitchen. Lao Du and Aunt Yang couldn't help but laugh.

After Du Wei returned with the tea, Aunt Yang explained Lu Suniang's conditions: "She doesn't want any betrothal gifts, but hopes you'll treat Xiao Zihao like your own child. She also doesn't want to change his surname, and wants you to promise to send him to school in the future."

Lao Du was relieved, thinking it was a big deal, but it was just these small requests. Du Wei agreed to all the conditions, saying, "I'll treat Xiao Zihao like my own child, and I won't change his surname. As for sending him to school, I was already planning to do that for my own children in the future. Lu Suniang is right, only by learning to read and write can they avoid being deceived in the future."

Aunt Yang nodded in agreement, thinking that Du Wei was indeed a reliable person.

"Sister Yang, we can't not give the betrothal gift. Even if she is a widow, we still have to do it this way. We must follow the rules and not let people gossip." Lao Du added.

"Yes, my father is right. Who doesn't give a betrothal gift when marrying a wife?" Du Wei nodded and said.

Aunt Yang looked at the Du family father and son, and was very happy for Li Suniang. Look at how the father and son sincerely accept Li Suniang and want to treat her well.

"Okay, then I'll go back and talk to Suniang, and let's follow the rules! Then I'm leaving, you two have a good discussion." Aunt Yang nodded.

After Aunt Yang left, the Du family father and son began to discuss inviting a matchmaker and giving the betrothal gift. The two of them just had a quick lunch, and then hurriedly set up the ox cart. This time, it can be said that the father and son went out together.

When they were about to leave, they happened to meet Aunt Cuihua, who came to their house with a basket.

"Why are the father and son so happy? Are they going out?" Aunt Cuihua asked curiously when she saw the smile on Lao Du's face.

"Aunt, if you have something to say, wait until we come back to talk! I'm busy now." Lao Du didn't explain much, mainly because he didn't have time to explain now. He was in a hurry to find a matchmaker. After he finished speaking, he drove the ox cart away without waiting for Aunt Cuihua to react.

"Look at how happy Lao Du is as if he had married a daughter-in-law." Aunt Cuihua stood there and watched Lao Du's ox cart go away, talking to herself. Originally, she came to deliver some eggs to Lao Du's family, but now she had to take them back home. But she was right. Isn't it preparing to marry a daughter-in-law?

After Aunt Yang came out of Du's house, she went directly to Li Suniang's house. She told Li Su's mother exactly what Du's father and son said.

Li Suniang was very moved after hearing this and secretly made up her mind that after marrying into the Du family, she would live a good life with Du Wei and be filial to Du Wei's father.

What Li Suniang didn't expect was that Aunt Yang had just been to the Du family yesterday, and the matchmaker hired by the Du family came to the door today. This speed was fast enough.

Early in the morning, Li Suniang had just finished breakfast and walked out of the kitchen, and saw a neatly dressed woman standing outside her yard.

Li Suniang looked at the woman very vigilantly, but when the woman saw Li Suniang, she smiled and said, "Young lady, don't be afraid. My surname is Ye, and I am the matchmaker hired by the Du family. Can you open the door and let me in?"

It is estimated that Du Wei said something to the matchmaker, so Ye matchmaker introduced herself as soon as she came.

Speaking of this matchmaker Ye, she is also a matchmaker in the town. Compared with the bad and immoral Matchmaker Lin, Matchmaker Ye has a much better reputation.

Matchmaker Ye helps people become matchmakers. She will introduce the appearance, family members, and family conditions of both men and women clearly. Generally, families who really care about their children will ask Matchmaker Ye to be a matchmaker.

When Li Suniang heard that the Du family invited her, she went over to open the courtyard door and asked Xiao Zihao to go to the Yang family to call Aunt Yang over. After all, she was not born and raised here, and she still didn't know the details of the ancient people's engagement and marriage.

Soon Aunt Yang came over with Xiao Zihao, so Li Suniang listened to Aunt Yang and the matchmaker talking about the betrothal gifts, and soon the matchmaker left with a smile.

Another day later, the matchmaker came again, and this time Du Wei also came, and both of them were holding something in their hands. Aunt Yang had come a long time ago, and when she saw them again, she couldn't stop smiling.

Xiao Zihao was familiar with Du Wei because he had met him several times. After seeing Du Wei coming to his house, he immediately ran over excitedly and called out "Uncle Du."

Du Wei picked him up, which made Xiao Zihao laugh. Xiao Zihao knew that his mother was going to marry Uncle Du. His mother told him about this two days ago, and he felt very happy when he heard it.

"Uncle Du, my mother said that you will be my new father in the future." Xiao Zihao whispered in Du Wei's ear.

After hearing this, Du Wei immediately looked at Li Suniang, and Li Suniang smiled at him when she saw Du Wei looking at her.

She didn't know what Xiao Zihao said to Du Wei. Otherwise, she wouldn't smile at him so calmly.
