Chapter 255 Want to be a Matchmaker

After entering the house, I made room for him and served him tea.

Han sat on the chair, and Lu Zhaozhao chatted with Tong Huaqiong with a smile.

Tong Huaqiong knew why Han came to Qinghe Bay.

That must be for his beloved grandson Liu Yanhong.

County Magistrate Liu was careless and placed Liu Yanhong in Tong Huaqiong's home, hoping that Tong Huaqiong could control his temper. However, he was afraid that County Magistrate Liu would be disappointed.

Liu Yanhong has been in the village for the past few days, running around with Maner and Yaozu every day. His temper has become more and more wild, and he has become tanned, and he no longer looks like the best young master in the county.

However, it is worth affirming that Liu Yanhong has become stronger and practiced writing a stack of big characters every day under the supervision of Tong Huaqiong.

Liu Yanhong leaned against his grandmother. Han touched her eldest grandson from head to hand, feeling very satisfied.

My grandson didn't lose weight.

When I saw the big words written by my grandson, I couldn't stop smiling.

Who said that his grandson didn't like to study? Why did he love to study after arriving in Qinghewan? It must be that the teaching method of the private school teacher was wrong.

"Sister Tong, my grandson is very naughty. He must have caused you a lot of trouble these days, right?" Han asked after drinking her tea.

Tong Huaqiong smiled and said, "No."

To be honest, Liu Yanhong is a very good kid.

She is sweet-mouthed and lively, and keeps calling Tong Huaqiong "grandma" all day long. They have developed feelings for each other over the past few days.

Han said, "Hong'er is a good eater. I just found out yesterday that my son didn't give your family any money and just kept him at your house."

I know my grandson Moruo's grandmother.

Liu Yanhong is indeed a big eater.

And eat meat at every meal.

Han felt that her son's behavior was somewhat suspicious of using his power to oppress others.

Tong Huaqiong said: "It's just adding a pair of chopsticks."

Liu Yanhong raised his arms and said to Han: "I eat very well at my grandmother's house. There is meat and snacks for every meal."

Han pinched Liu Yanhong's chubby face and asked, "No wonder you don't miss home anymore."

Liu Yanhong threw himself into Han's arms and said, "I miss home! I miss grandma every day. I dare not go back without my father's order."

Han hugged Liu Yanhong and called him her sweetheart.

Tong Huaqiong's mouth twitched. This little bastard Liu Yanhong was quite smart. He clearly wanted to stay in Qinghe Bay forever, but he knew how to say lies in front of his grandmother to please her.

Han ordered people to move the holiday gifts brought to the Gu family from the carriage into the house.

Tong Huaqiong estimated that the gifts included clothing materials, medicinal materials, local specialties, and a box of books.

"Man'er has grown taller in the past six months." Han saw Man'er standing aside, pulled her into her arms and said with a smile.

The last time she saw Man'er was at Old Lady Huang's birthday party.

Half a year passed, and Man'er was carefully taken care of by Tong Huaqiong. She grew taller and whiter, and dressed in brand new clothes, looking like a dragon girl.

Han liked it very much at first sight, and took out a gold necklace and put it around Maner's neck.

Maner looked back at Tong Huaqiong, not knowing whether she should accept Han's gift.

Tong Huaqiong smiled and said to Man'er: "Why don't you thank Grandma Han?"

Maner thanked him crisply.

Han smiled and pulled Yaozu over, took out a set of writing brushes, ink, paper and inkstone and handed them to Yaozu.

Yaozu was confused.

He didn't expect that these were the gifts given to him, and he couldn't read.

Tong Huaqiong took over for Yaozu. The writing brush, ink, paper and inkstone reminded Tong Huaqiong that it was time to teach Yaozu.

Liu Yanhong was only two years older than Yaozu and had already received enlightenment. Living in the village where there was no atmosphere for enlightenment, she had forgotten about giving Yaozu enlightenment.

Not only Yaozu needs enlightenment, but Maner also needs to learn to read.

Tong Huaqiong made up her mind to start educating her two children after the busy autumn harvest season was over.

After delivering the gifts, Han sat down and chatted with Tong Huaqiong.

"Sister Tong, you don't have to worry about me. Just do what you need to do." Han said to Tong Huaqiong.

Han came from the countryside and knew that people in the countryside were busy. They couldn't sit together and chat like the wives of officials in the city.

Tong Huaqiong did not refuse and she wanted to make the braised pork and braised spareribs herself.

Tong Huaqiong went into the kitchen to prepare lunch.

Han was accompanied by Hong and Lu Zhaozhao to the yard.

Gu Jingzhe had already washed the pig intestines. He rolled up his sleeves and took a piece of the intestines and put it on the chopping board to start cutting.

When Han first entered the yard, she didn't look at Gu Jingzhe carefully, but when she did, she was shocked to find that the young man was really handsome.

"Hello, old lady." Gu Jingzhe felt a pair of eyes wandering over him. He raised his head and saw Han, and greeted her politely.

"What is this?" Han asked Hong beside her.

"This is Sister Tong's youngest son Jingzhe." said Mrs. Hong.

"So he is Sister Tong's youngest son. He is so handsome. People say your brother is handsome, but I don't think your brother can compare to Jingzhe." Han turned her head and said to Lu Zhaozhao with a smile.

Gu Jingzhe blushed at this straightforward compliment. He lowered his head and worked harder to cut the pig intestines.

"I heard that Sister Tong's youngest son was studying in town, why did he come home now?" Han asked Hong beside her as if chatting, trying to find out the news about Gu Jingzhe in a roundabout way.

Mrs. Hong said, "It's almost autumn harvest time, and the school is on vacation. There is no other Jingzhe in the whole village. Not only is she good at studying, but she also takes care of the crops, cooks, and does accounting in the shop after school."

Mrs. Hong praised Gu Jingzhe a lot.

Han nodded and said, "I heard my son mention it before, saying that Jingzhe's books are indeed good."

Han had heard County Magistrate Liu mention Gu Jingzhe. Now that she had seen it with her own eyes, she found that the youngest son of the Gu family really looked good. He was handsome, had a talent for studying, and was able to humble himself and work.

Tong Da Jiao is really a blessed person.

My children are all well-born, and they make things easier for me.

The more Han looked at Gu Jingzhe, the more she liked him. She glanced at Lu Zhaozhao beside her and a smile appeared in her eyes.

Han has his own logic for girls getting married.

When buying a pig, first look at the pen. To determine whether the boy is a good person, one must first look at whether his family tradition is upright and whether his parents are decent people.

There is no need to talk about the Gu family's family style. It can be seen from Tong Dajiao that it is naturally good.

Be nice to your step-son and his wife, and treat your granddaughter and grandson the same.

More importantly, there is no custom of taking concubines in Qinghe Bay, and the son of the Gu family probably doesn't even have the idea of ​​taking a concubine.

This kind of family tradition is very suitable for relatives.

Tong Dajiao is a decent person. He does not cheat on weights when running his shop and is willing to donate the medicine for ear rot.

My cousin's daughter has been an orphan since she was a child. She has a simple personality and is not suitable for a complicated wealthy family.

After much selection, the Gu family was the right choice.

Gu Jingzhe is about the same age as my niece. He is a potential stock now, but he has not yet made great achievements in his studies. Now is the most appropriate time to recruit him for my niece. When he passes the imperial examination and becomes a scholar or juren, and with his handsome face, many people will be vying for him.

Han glanced at Lu Zhaozhao beside her. This cousin and Gu Jingzhe were a perfect match.

The more Han thought about it, the more she felt that this matter could not be delayed, and she wanted to quickly find a matchmaker for the two younger generations.

However, Han also knew that this matter could not be rushed, as the final decision on Lu Zhaozhao's marriage would still be made by her uncle, Old Man Lu, and Lu Zhaoyang.

But she could first test Tong Huaqiong's attitude.

If Tong Huaqiong is interested, she will be able to convince her uncle.

Gu Jingzhe was so focused on cutting the intestines and meat that he didn't realize he had reached a milestone in Han's career as a matchmaker.
