Chapter 392 - 392: Song Lu I s Visit

Now that Teacher Lin was leaving, going to the county school was definitely the best choice.

In the afternoon, Madam Liu and Madam Zhang had just finished preparing their daily pickled cabbages.

Someone came knocking.

It was an unexpected guest.

They looked at Song Lu and Madam Huang who were standing at the door.

Madam Huang was Song Lu’s mother.

Because they were already engaged, the matchmaker did not have to come along.

“Sister Huang?” When Madam Zhang saw the person who had come, a trace of wisdom was hidden under her smile. It only took an instant for her to change from being stunned to smiling.

Madam Huang and Song Lu were quickly welcomed in and sat in the central

room.

Madam Zhang found Chu Ming in the courtyard and asked her youngest son to call Chu Lin back. When her in-laws suddenly came, she could not help but think of the news she had heard before.

Madam Liu was already sitting in the central room, talking to Madam Huang and Song Lu.

Chu Qingxiang came out of the room and looked at the main room with anticipation.

Madam Zhang knew that her daughter was satisfied with her son-in-law, Song Lu. She laughed and scolded in a low voice. “You haven’t even married yet, but your heart is already with them.”

Chu Qingxiang’s face turned red. She was a capable person after all. “Mother, why are you making fun of me? No matter what, I can hear it. It’s only right for me to pour some tea.”

“Go on, do you think Mother will really laugh at you?” Madam Zhang naturally agreed.

Chu Qingxiang quickly went into the kitchen.

Madam Zhang casually brought some peanuts and the remaining pastries into the central room.

After entering, he sat down.

“Sister Huang, why did you think of coming to our house? Stay for dinner tonight.” Madam Zhang’s words had always been warm and pleasant.

Madam Huang was originally hesitant about how she should explain her intentions.

Seeing that Madam Zhang and Madam Liu’s attitudes were not bad.

She instantly felt a trace of confidence, and her nervousness disappeared under the comfort of the two of them.

Madam Huang said, “Sister Zhang, it’s like this. Our family has discussed this.

We want Lil’ Lu and to marry Little Xiang in advance in July.”

“Before we came, we had already calculated the auspicious date. The 16th of July is a good day.”

Madam Zhang’s expression changed slightly, but it was hidden under her smile.

However, Song Lu noticed the coldness in Madam Liu’s eyes.

He stood up and cupped his hands. “This is all because I want to prepare for the provincial examination. Old Madam, Aunt, if you have any requests, I will do my best.”

Madam Liu raised her eyebrows.

She glanced at Song Lu and saw that his expression was honest and his words were sincere. She was quite satisfied. Then, her gaze fell on Madam Huangs face.

As expected, she saw Madam Huang unable to maintain her shock and anger.

Was she not satisfied with Song Lu’s request?

Or was the so-called reason for bringing forward the marriage not because of the examination?

Although Madam Liu was puzzled, she knew that she would not be able to find out anything other than asking Song Lu. Before this, she had heard from the neighboring village that the Song family had the idea of bringing forward the marriage and was already preparing for it.

She was waiting for them to personally come and explain.

As for the specific reason, the Song family had been secretive.

When Madam Zhang heard that the marriage was brought forward because of the imperial examination, the dissatisfaction in her heart disappeared.

She had a smile on her face and did not care about Madam Huang’s dissatisfaction.

“Ah Lu, you’re so thoughtful. I’ll be at ease if Xiang’er marries you,” she praised.

“Thank you for your understanding, Aunt. Today, apart from informing me of this matter, I also intend to discuss the betrothal gifts.” With every sentence that Song Lu said, Madam Huang’s expression turned uglier.

However, she did not dare to say anything openly..
