Fully Leveled Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 1972: Chapter 1972: Ms. Tao’s Request

After that day, Shu Yu would occasionally pay attention to their situation. Gan Rui still came around, but not often, and every time he would have a very serious reason.

Sometimes he would speak alone with Meng Han, but it was always polite and respectful.

Shu Yu watched the two of them and felt a bit guilty, she and Meng Yunzheng would often hold hands and hug, compared to them, was she too unreserved?

However, Gan Rui must have spoken with Meng Han, her face visibly brightened.

Shu Yu shook her head, it seemed this engagement was not far off.

Sure enough, shortly thereafter, Meng Han came over, somewhat embarrassed, and said, “Sister Shuyu, um, Gan Rui said, he wants to find a matchmaker to propose at home, what do you think?”

“I think it’s fine to follow the normal procedure.” Neither side has objections, and both families’ parents have no objections, then there’s no problem.

But Shu Yu still wanted to say, “Engagement is okay, but for marriage, you could wait a few more years, you’re still young, no need to rush.”

Meng Han nodded, “I know, I’ve told Gan Rui, even if we get married, it has to wait until after I’m seventeen.”

So it was decided.

Gan Rui also spoke with Meng Yunzheng, and the latter’s opinion was the same as Shu Yu’s.

So after two days, Meng Han returned to the Meng family. Immediately after, the Gan family hired a matchmaker from the prefecture to go to Chenggu County, seeking out the Meng family’s escort agency to probe Uncle Meng and Ms. Tao’s sentiments.

If the Meng family was also interested, then the two families would arrange a time, and later the Gan family’s elder siblings and matchmaker would go to the Meng family to formally discuss the engagement.

Shu Yu thought the two sides would discuss harmoniously, and she would just wait for the good news to drink wedding wine.

Unexpectedly, a day later, Ms. Tao and Meng Han came to the prefecture looking for Shu Yu.

Ms. Tao came, very nervous, and said, “Shu Yu, um, what’s really going on with the Gan family? What Ah Han told me is unclear, and the matchmaker keeps saying how great the Gan family is, it makes me very uneasy. Tell me, is the Gan family reliable?”

Lately, Ms. Tao had been looking for a match for Meng Han, and there had been quite a few gentlemen from wealthy families proposing.

But those were people from the county town, even if their family circumstances were quite good, Ms. Tao was not frightened.

This time, suddenly a Gan family from the prefecture came, not only was their business large, but Gan Rui was already a Scholar at such a young age.

The matchmaker said the Gan family was a century-old family, their business was all over the country, if Ah Han married, she would be a Young Madam. In a few years, if Gan Rui passes the scholarly examination or becomes an Advanced Scholar, she’d be a government official’s wife.

With such an excellent match, of course Ms. Tao was delighted.

Especially since Ah Han herself seemed very satisfied with Gan Rui, saying how his character was great.

But hearing this made Ms. Tao worry, tossing and turning at night unable to sleep. Ah Han is so young, how can she know his character well? What if she’s deceived?

Now that she’s severed ties with her family sister-in-law, and has no mother-in-law above her, nor any sisters-in-law nearby, therefore, apart from Uncle Meng, there’s no one to discuss with.

Ultimately, she thought it over, and ran to the prefecture to find Shu Yu. Even though she didn’t like Shu Yu before, she had to admit, now in the entire Meng family, she and Meng Yunzheng are the clearest and most capable.

Ms. Tao said, “The matchmaker said, we can arrange a time to meet with the Gan family. I just thought, could you accompany me on this trip?”
