Chapter 19 Sigh

Qiao Sanli told Zhao Shucheng about going to her house for dinner tonight, and then sat for a while before going home first.
After all, today is a very important day, and she still has to go back and prepare. Not only is it washing her hands for soup, but she also has to help her family clean up the house.
After Sanli left, Zhao Shucheng was about to continue writing when he heard a knock on the door. He thought Sanli had forgotten something, but when he went to open the door, he found that Qiao Yicheng was standing outside.
"Yisheng, Sanli has just left not long ago."
Qiao Yicheng said, "I know, I came to find you only when I saw Sanli leaving."
Zhao Shucheng asked strangely: "Oh, then what's wrong with you looking for me?"
Qiao Yicheng looked at Zhao Shucheng very seriously and asked, "Zhao Shucheng, I ask you, what do you think of Sanli? Do you really like her or..."
"Seeing what you said, of course I like her. Who wouldn't like such a young, beautiful, gentle and virtuous girl? It's just that Sanli was still young before, and I thought about what to say after Sanli graduated."
"Then why are you bringing up this matter now? You also said that you want to wait until Sanli graduates before saying that, why can't you wait to propose marriage to my dad now?"
Zhao Shucheng said: "Yicheng, since you are here to ask, I will tell the truth. In fact, it was not me who took the initiative to propose marriage, but my uncle came to me yesterday and told me that Sanli was virtuous and gentle, etc. Then I thought I was good too. We were very suitable for both of us and wanted to settle our affairs."
Although Qiao Yicheng was unwilling to believe it, he had to admit that this was what his father could do. Because he knew that if Zhao Shucheng really liked Sanli, he would not have never taken action. He didn't even tell Sanli and talk to him, but instead went to find his unreliable father.
When Qiao Zuwang was talking at home yesterday, he felt something was wrong, but because everyone was happy at that time, he did not directly ask Qiao Zuwang.
Now that he heard Zhao Shucheng say this, he suddenly understood and knew that the bride price was definitely not like the money Qiao Zuwang said.
However, Qiao Yicheng is too lazy to pursue how much money Qiao Zuwang has asked Zhao Shucheng for, but instead said to Zhao Shucheng angrily: "Then why did you agree to the engagement that my dad said? Shouldn't you ask Sanli for advice first?"
Zhao Shucheng looked at Qiao Yicheng and said, "Yicheng, do you think that if Uncle Qiao refused to talk about this yesterday, would he give up?"
Qiao Yicheng was stunned when he heard this. Naturally, he would not think that Qiao Zuwang could really give up, otherwise he would not have found Zhao Shucheng's house and asked for a bride price.
"If I refuse, Uncle Qiao is still a small matter. If I go to find someone else and say that she is betrothing Sanli to them, do you think Sanli has a choice then? At least when Sanli came to my house just now, I told her that if she doesn't like me or doesn't want to, then we will think that this thing has not happened. As for the bride price, you can wait until Sanli has money, or you can raise the money to pay it back to me."
When Qiao Yicheng heard Zhao Shucheng say this, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "What did Sanli say?"
"She didn't say anything, but I actually know that Sanli has always had a good impression of me, and it should have started after that year."
Qiao Yicheng initially guessed what year it was, but soon locked in the matter between Li Heman. In fact, he had already discovered that since that incident, Sanli has rejected other men except for the men at home, and even male classmates are very estranged.
I thought it was a little girl who didn't like to play with boys, so I didn't care. Later, as Sanli grew up, she usually interacted with Zhao Shucheng. Qiao Yicheng thought it was okay, but now I think it should have a great impact on her.
"Even if this is the case, I won't stop you from Sanli, but Sanli is still in school after all, and you can get in touch with each other, but you can't get married so early."
Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm not that anxious. At least I have to wait until Sanli graduates to talk about marriage. Now I'll get an engagement name first, so that your father will not make any more monsters."
Qiao Yicheng couldn't help but sigh, thinking that his father had changed during this period, but he didn't expect it to be so unreliable. He also felt that Zhao Shucheng was a good match for Sanli, so he didn't say anything to ask Zhao Shucheng not to bully Sanli.
"Okay, since the matter has been cleared, I will go back first. You can just come to our house in the afternoon. Anyway, you know our house, so I won't let Sanli pick you up."
"Don't worry, I'll send you there."
After Qiao Yicheng returned home, he saw Qiao Sanli busy and wanted to say something, but he quickly gave up the idea. That thing was the eternal pain in Sanli's heart, and he shouldn't have exposed the scars.
Anyway, she likes Zhao Shucheng now, and when the two are together, she will not think of those unhappy things.
Qiao Zuwang went home with the melon seeds. Seeing Qiao Yicheng and the others busy, he said, "Is this a thing you can do? It's chicken, fish, and snacks. Isn't it just that Zhao Shucheng came once, and he hasn't been to our house before. I know the situation in our house. Is it necessary to waste it like this?"
Qiao Yicheng said, "You dare to say, you..." He looked at Sanli and Erqiang on the side and said, "I haven't asked you yet, what happened to you when you go to Zhao Shucheng. This time it is also an engagement banquet. Of course, you have to prepare better. If you say more, I will ask you to give all the bride money to Sanli."
"Okay, I can't control you anymore, just do whatever you want."
Qiao Zuwang was naturally in a disadvantage. He was also worried that the children would find out about Zhao Shucheng's engagement with Sanli, and they would definitely make trouble with him when the time comes.
"Sanli, among these kids, you are the one that makes me feel most worried."
Seeing his little daughter looking at him, Qiao Zuwang said, "What are you looking at? Your sister is well-behaved and capable. No matter who marrys you, it will make a profit. I still feel a little loss."
Qiao Yicheng said, "You still lose money? You have the nerve to say it."
Qiao Zuwang didn't want to argue with Qiao Yicheng and said, "Why isn't it a loss? My daughter is so big, and she will become someone else's family in a blink of an eye."
Qiao Yicheng walked to Sanli and said, "Sanli, I think Zhao Shucheng is a good person. You two will be good in the future, but you have to remember that you must wait until the age of late marriage before getting married."
"Brother, what did you say?"
"I'm relieved."
Qiao Simei walked behind Qiao Yicheng and said, "Brother, you are so tilted in your arms. When I was in love before, you were not like this. You scolded me when I was in love. Now that my sister is in love, why don't you say anything?"
"Can your sister be the same as you? Your sister is not in love early. Besides, can your unrestrained boyfriend compare with Zhao Shucheng? Your sister has a pair of eyes that can look at people, which is much more reliable than you."
Qiao Simei muttered, "I have a good eye for looking at people, but my sister is ahead of the scene. What can I do?"
Qiao Yicheng didn't hear it clearly and asked, "What are you muttering?"
"I didn't say anything. Brother Zhao is really good. He is handsome, tall and has long legs."
Qiao Yicheng said, "Sanli, don't pay attention to this crazy girl."
Qiao Sanli smiled and said, "I know that brother, Simei, is beautiful and cannot be eaten as a food. If you have a lot of colorful intestines, it will be useless no matter how beautiful it is."
"How do you know that you are handsome and have a lot of charm? Brother Zhao is just handsome, and he is not a good person and has a beautiful heart, just like those big stars."
"You, just do it."
This was also the first time Zhao Shucheng came to the door as Sanli's fiancé, so he specially bought some gifts for everyone in the Qiao family.
When Zhao Shucheng came to Qiao's house, he saw what Zhao Shucheng was carrying, Qiao Zuwang was so happy that he couldn't stop talking.
Qiao Yicheng also knew that Zhao Shucheng was because of Sanli, so he didn't say anything. Although Qiao Erqiang always looked down on Zhao Shucheng, he also squeezed out a smile due to his sister's face.
Qiao Simei felt a little lost. Today, Zhao Shucheng came to the door, so she really had no hope. In the future, this person will be her brother-in-law, and her former fantasies will be really shattered.
Sanli blushed when she saw Zhao Shucheng's face and said, "Brother Zhao, you are here."
"Well, this is what I bought for everyone. This is Uncle Qiao's, this is your eldest brother, second brother, and Simei."
Seeing Zhao Shucheng giving people one by one, Qiao Sanli said, "What are you spending so much money?"
Qiao Zuwang said, "Damn girl, just turn your elbow out now. Xiao Zhao, don't be so polite in the future."
He said that, but no one was as fast as he could to get things. However, seeing that he had bought himself only wine, he immediately curled his lips.
Aunt Wu also heard the movements of the Qiao family. When she walked out, she saw that Zhao Shucheng was coming and bought things for the Qiao family. She couldn't help but ask curiously: "Is Zhao Shucheng here?"
"Hello, Aunt Wu!"
"Okay, but you are not a stranger either. Why are you so polite to come this time?"
Qiao Simei said: "Brother Zhao is my sister's fiancé now."
"Oh, fiancé, Sanli, you are engaged, why didn't you tell us? Everyone will celebrate."
"I'm here to get engaged today, and I don't want to disturb too many people. When our Sanli gets married in the future, I will definitely notify you that you can have ten or eight tables at that time."
