Two days later, the Xu family's funeral was in progress.

Lao Wang's family gathered a dozen strong men to go to the Xu family in the town to deliver wreaths, sedans and horses.

Yang Huazhong and Blacksmith Luo also wanted to burn longevity incense, so they got a couple of horse-drawn carriages, mules and carriages to go with them.

Wang Cuilian and Sun stayed behind to look after the house and the children, and Yang Ruoqing accompanied them to the town.

Before leaving, Liu and Yang Huaming also came over.

"Qing'er, your fourth uncle has to go help your father get something, and I'll be your companion!" Ms. Liu came uninvited, and after a quick greeting, she climbed into the carriage.

Yang Ruoqing didn't chase her away, and they just got into the carriage together.

On the carriage, Mrs. Liu first looked at Yang Ruoqing.

I found that today Yang Ruoqing had changed into a set of very simple and elegant clothes, and her hair was simply combed into a bun on the back of her head. Although she was bare-faced, she was very delicate and pure, with a clean face, except for a small star in the corner of her eye. Moles and other defects are almost impossible to find.

But the small mole in the corner of the eye is very recognizable. When not smiling, it looks very cold, but when smiling, it is very kind and down-to-earth.

There is almost no decoration on the head, only two silver hairpins are inserted for decoration.

Mrs. Liu couldn't help but say: "Qing'er, I have to say, you take good care of yourself. Walking out like this, you look like those young wives who have just been married."

Yang Ruoqing smiled lightly and said, "Hey, Fourth Aunt, this is not the right time to talk about this."

Ms. Liu said with a serious face: "I'm not flattering you. I just took a close look at you and found that you really don't look old at all."

"Well Mei'er, if you call her aunt, she will be three years older than you."

"But if you two stand together, you are separated by generations."

Yang Ruoqing was amused by Liu's words and corrected her: "Fourth Aunt, what you said is wrong. My aunt and I are separated by generations!"

Ms. Liu was stunned for a moment, and then she realized that what she said was a bit ominous, so she quickly changed her words and explained: "What I mean is that your appearance, just from your facial features, doesn't look like you are only three years apart." Looks like, at least thirteen years later!"

Yang Ruoqing curled her lips, "My aunt's experience was rougher than mine. My uncle left early and worried too much about family affairs, so there is nothing to compare with. Fourth aunt, let's end this topic. I don't want to talk about it anymore."

Mrs. Liu smiled coquettishly and said to herself that I really wasn't trying to flatter you today, I was telling the truth today!

But if you don’t believe it, then I can’t believe it either.

Just like that, there was a long journey ahead. The two of them sat in the carriage without talking, each thinking about their own things.

However, after a while, Mrs. Liu couldn't help but take the initiative to speak.

"Hey, Qing'er, Fourth Aunt, I still want to ask you something."

Faced with Liu's sudden opening, Yang Ruoqing was not surprised at all.

It's strange that she can stay leisurely during a trip like this.

"Ask." Yang Ruoqing said calmly.

Mrs. Liu moved her head, licked her lips again, and said, "This time, your fourth uncle and I went to Lao Xu's house to burn longevity incense. In addition to buying some basic incense candles and papyrus, we also prepared four hundred coins. , do you think this birthday gift is worth it?"

The calmness on Yang Ruoqing's face disappeared, and she became a little surprised.

"Fourth Aunt, you and my Fourth Uncle have no relationship with the old Xu family, so why do you do so much?"

This birthday gift is not only affordable? It is simply very generous, right?

What happened to these two people? Did they suddenly become philanthropic boys?

Just when Yang Ruoqing was puzzled, Mrs. Liu then spoke: "Actually, friendship is not really a friendship at all. I just went with you on this trip. I'm sorry to be empty-handed."

"However, if we really talk about friendship among people in this world, if we go up a few more generations, they might be related to the emperor!"

Liu said so much in one breath, but obviously Yang Ruoqing didn't think this was the real reason.

"Fourth Aunt, just tell the truth! Stop showing off!" Yang Ruoqing shook her head, her expression calm, and she obviously had no intention of gossiping, let alone joking.

"Okay, okay!" Mrs. Liu waved her hands, defeated, "I really can't hide anything from you, so what, I originally wanted to find an opportunity to discuss this matter with you. I wanted to see you.

What’s the idea?”

Yang Ruoqing continued to look at Ms. Liu calmly, waiting for her next words.

Mrs. Liu said: "I found out that Xu Yuanming has an unmarried niece, Yunying. She is three years older than my Kang boy. She had smallpox when she was a child and pockmarked her face..."

Yang Ruoqing's eyes moved: "Fourth Aunt, what do you mean - do you want to introduce that girl to Kang Xiaozi? This, is this possible?"

Everyone has a love for beauty. Although Kang Xiaozi was born with harelips and was considered a disability in the eyes of others, as a young man, how could he not have some fantasies about young and beautiful girls?

Especially in the dead of night, when a person is lying in bed alone and lonely, he will surely fantasize about finding a beautiful woman like a flower by his side in this life, how wonderful it would be to know how cold it is and how hot it is?

Will he be happy if you, Mr. Liu, give him a woman with a pockmarked face?

"Fourth Aunt, have you asked Mr. Kang for his personal opinion on this matter? Don't do everything!" Out of caution, Yang Ruoqing quickly asked Mr. Liu seriously.

However, Mr. Liu looked disapproving and said, "No need to ask. I asked him to go to so many weddings before, but he asked too many questions and failed to get any of them!"

"Besides, if I really ask him, he has no idea and still wishes he could marry a beautiful princess. Is that okay? I wouldn't dare to do that in my wildest dreams!"

Yang Ruoqing didn't say anything, but she felt that what Liu said seemed to make some sense.

Just like the advancement of science and technology in later generations, the pace of life is fast, and people's thinking is also changing in all aspects, so there are many older leftover men and women in cities and rural areas.

Is it really true that the ratio of men to women is seriously imbalanced?

Not necessarily.

Many times there are men and women. If the configuration can be systematically arranged like doing math problems, then everyone will be in pairs.

The reason why there are so many left is mainly because people have independent choices. Sometimes they would rather be alone than make do.

"Qing'er, don't worry. I gave birth to Mr. Kang in the tenth month of my pregnancy. I can't possibly harm him." Ms. Liu continued.

"Although that girl has pockmarks on her face, she still has passable facial features and a good figure. She is not the kind of loser who will fall down when the wind blows!"

"What's more important is that the girl should be smart and quick-witted. I heard she is good at growing vegetables, raising pigs, and chickens. She can't even do the work of the women of the farmer's house!"

"When Kang Xiaozi gets married and lives a good life, it will be pleasing to the eye."
