Upon hearing Yang Ruqing's question, Xiao Duo shook her head. "Grandpa didn't say anything, he just asked Dad if he had eaten. Dad said that if there was something urgent, to speak first and eat while talking."

"Grandpa said it couldn't be done, he said it was a serious matter and told Dad to wait a while before eating, to go to the old house first."

"Father put down his chopsticks and left. Mother said she would go take a bath first and wait for Father to come back to eat together. She told me to eat first. I was hungry, so I put Father and Mother's food into the pot to warm up." Little Duo said.

Yang Ruqing rolled her eyes. "You, you just keep talking about eating and nothing else, not a shred of useful information."

Little Duo playfully stuck out her tongue and buried her head back into her meal.

Though Yang Ruqing said so, she still took out a watermelon and cut a big slice, placing it beside Xiaoduo.

“This well water town, it's delicious, you should try it after your meal,” she said.

Xia Duo raised her head and smiled happily at Yang Ruqing, quickly piling more food onto her plate.

Yang Ruqing sat there waiting. After a while, Mrs. Sun came out of the bath.

The three of them tidied up the table and sat together, eating watermelon and chatting. After a while, Yang Huazhong came back.

Accompanying him was Yang Huaming. The two brothers walked and whispered to each other, so engrossed in their conversation that they didn't notice the three of them eating watermelon at the table until they reached it.

“Qing'er is here too?” Yang Huazhong asked.

Yang Ruqing stood up and said, "I brought watermelon here, Father, Uncle Four, come over and eat watermelon quickly."

Yang Huazhong said, “You guys eat first, I'll go wash my face and be right back.”

When Yang Huaming saw the watermelon, his eyes lit up. He walked over to the table in three steps and two, took a piece of melon from Sun Shi who had passed it to him, and started eating it with big bites.

"Mmm, so refreshing! In this hot summer, watermelon is truly a lifesaver!"

Sun's smile.

Yang Ruqing and Xia Duo also smiled at each other. Yang Ruqing asked Yang Huaming, "Fourth Uncle, why are you still free to come over tonight?"

Yang Huaming said, "There's something important. Your grandfather has assigned a significant task to me and your father!"

"What important business is it? Can you tell me about it?" Yang Ruqing asked curiously.

Yang Huaming gave a mysterious smile, then wiped the watermelon juice from his mouth and excitedly said, "Your older brother Yongxian has fallen for someone! Hahaha,"

"It's been almost two years since Li Xiu Xin passed away, and Yong Xian that kid has finally moved on. He wants to get married!"

Hearing this, Yang Ruqing and the others all became excited.

Mrs. Sun eagerly asked Yang Huaming, "Really? That's great news! It seems Yongxian finally understands and wants to get married. May the Buddha bless her." Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

If you knew what kind of person he was into, you wouldn't say "May Buddha bless him."

Yang Huazhong's voice came from behind, and he soon came to the table.

Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else! ?

Sun shi looked at Yang Hua zhong in confusion, "Whose daughter is she?"

Yang Huazhong sat down, took a bite of watermelon, and pointed with his finger at the Sun family's house across the way.

"Ah? Xiao Jie?" Mrs. Sun blurted out.

“Xiaojie is almost a whole head shorter than Yongxian. Isn’t that not good?” asked Mrs. Sun.

“However, Yongxian’s appearance and character are impeccable. She is also someone we know well. If the two children were destined to be together, it would work out well, and my elder sister and her family would be reassured. The only thing I don't know is…”

"Don't keep overthinking it," Yang Huazhong interrupted Sun Shi impatiently, "It wasn't Xia Jie, it was Cui'er!"

"What? Cui'er?" Mrs. Sun was so startled that she couldn't speak.

Yang Ruoqing and Xia Duo looked at each other in surprise, both seeing the same astonishment in each other's eyes. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate! ?

"Father, what's going on? Was this marriage arranged by my grandfather for my elder brother, or did my elder brother choose her himself? Or did Cui'er's parents take the initiative to propose?"

Yang Ruqing couldn't wait to ask.

Before Yang Huazhong could answer, Yang Huaming, who had just finished a slice of watermelon, let out a satisfied belch and leaned back comfortably in his chair.

"Never would have expected that, would you? It was Yong Xian who suggested it himself!" Yang Huaming said.

"Haha, Yongxian this kid, good vision ah, Cui'er that girl indeed looks good, ten miles eight villages a branch of flowers can be called."

Yang Huaming continued, “As for Yong Xian, he is talented and a scholar. He also has a respectable and stable position as a teacher at the academy.”

“If two people are destined to be together, this would be a good match. What do you think, Third Sister-in-law and Qing’er?” he asked.

Sun's voice was stammering, and his face looked a little strange.

Yang Ruqing smiled, but it was...

Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated! ?

"Father, Uncle Four, then what was Grandfather's attitude when he asked you both to talk about this?" Yang Ruoqing asked again.

Yang Huazhong said: “Your grandfather's attitude is to strengthen the ties between our two families.”

That's right!

As expected, Yang Ruohong's heart skipped a beat, as if ten thousand grass mud horses were running wildly past her.

The person I most dislike and want to have nothing to do with, will one day become my sister-in-law, the eldest daughter-in-law of Lao Yang's family.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

We always get together to eat during festivals and holidays, and there's always socializing between people on a regular basis.

She will also become your elder brother's pillow person, whispering sweet nothings to him every day...

"No, this marriage is not a good match!" Yang Ruqing said directly.

Yang Huaming was stunned, glanced at Yang Ruqing, then at Yang Huzhong.

“Qing’er, Third Brother, you two are truly father and daughter, your words are exactly the same.” Yang Huaming said.

“Back at the old house, when Father spoke of this matter, you, Third Brother, said the same thing.”

"But, Third Brother, the reason Father objects to this, you absolutely refuse to say! Even Qing'er disagrees. What is going on?"

"What's wrong with Cuier? She doesn't talk much, you tell me, why aren't you a good match?"

Faced with Yang Huaming's questioning, Yang Huazhong fell silent again, his gaze turning to Mrs. Sun, unsure whether he should speak.

"Third Brother, what's going on here? I feel like you guys are hiding something from me." Yang Huaming continued to ask.

Yang Ruqing said, “Fourth Uncle, we do have reasons for not agreeing with this matter, but now, we can’t tell you.”

“Alright then, take this watermelon with you. You should go home for now. We still need to discuss this matter further. Once we've figured it out, I'll let you know, as well as my grandfather and my older brother. We'll make sure everyone is clear on the situation, okay?”

This made Yang Huaming even more curious, but Yang Ruqing had already said so much, Yang Huaming didn't know what to say anymore.

As soon as Yang Huaming left, Sun Shi anxiously said, "What are we going to do?"

Yang Huazhong said, “Yongxian and Cuier have nothing to do with each other. Cuier hasn't left the Sun family courtyard for half a year, right?”

“Yongxian is also studying at the academy every day. Now, even when he sleeps at night, he is still in the academy. When will he see Cuier and fall in love with her at first sight to propose marriage?”

Genius one second: m.
