“You say you have no regrets, but what if she approaches you after you marry?” Father Gu inquired.

This was not the first time something like this had occurred. Most people would take the fiance’s side and downgrade the man’s wife to an equal wife or concubine if he didn’t have a firm attitude.

So, if he doesn’t have a clear attitude, this marriage won’t work.

Hu Chun was taken aback for a brief moment after hearing this. Then he remembered what they had discussed that night and reacted quickly. They were most likely not simply inquiring about his situation but were also attempting to match him with a girl.

Given his current circumstances, he should look for a wife. Not only would his family be at ease with another woman helping out, but they would also be able to better integrate into the local village.

After a brief pause, he responded, “I’m not going to keep it from you. My grandmother arranged this marriage for me when 1 had just finished the scholar’s exam.

“However, my parents passed away one after another, so 1 gave up on the scholar’s examination and went to support my family.

“So, aside from my grandmother, no one acknowledged this marriage. I’m afraid it’s even more difficult now that we’re separated by distance.” “This year marks your 23rd birthday. What is the girl’s age? You’ve been keeping her waiting all this time.” The village chief asked.

“I was twelve years old, and she was five when we got engaged.

“As my grandmother put it, there’s a reason for our large age difference. It would have been a good time to marry after I had focused on my studies for a few years.”

“Your grandmother has good foresight.” Father Gu agreed with a nod.

“True, my grandmother has always been the head of our family, but…” Hu Chun’s face flushed as he spoke.

The other three elderly people realized immediately that the elderly woman had most likely died while traveling through the mountains. The village chief spoke up immediately, “Let’s eat. It will not taste good if the food becomes cold.”

“Yes, yes, it’s difficult to get meat these days.” Father Gu added as he picked up a chicken leg for Hu Chun.

“Thank you very much, Uncle Gu.” Hu Chun thanked him with a nod.

They never mentioned Hu Chun’s family again after that. Instead, they discussed local customs and briefly described the situation in Qingshui Town.

Of course, Father Gu was still keeping an eye on Hu Chun.

As the saying goes, a person’s true self is revealed when drunk. Drinking could provide a glimpse of it.

After observing him, he discovered that Hu Chun drank slowly and savored the wine. He was a meticulous and careful individual.

Furthermore, regardless of how they persuaded him, he was always polite and restrained. He didn’t drink much, demonstrating his strong self-control.

This type of individual was either exceptional or formidable. In a nutshell, his future looked promising.

When they were nearly finished drinking, the village chief asked, “Do you have any interests outside of work? When you have time, you can play with the village youngster.”

“My favorite pastime is Go chess.”

“Chess betting?” The patriarch took a breather and asked on purpose.

“I’ve never bet money on chess before. I simply enjoy playing, and the process of playing chess teaches me a lot.”

“I happen to have a set of Go chess at home. When we have some free time, let’s play some games.” Father Gu went on to say.

“Sure, whenever you’re available, I’ll pay you a visit.” Hu Chun smiled in response.

His heart skipped a beat after that. He finally realized that the person who wanted to be his matchmaker was almost certainly Father Gu.

He remembered Gu Chengye and his sister, whom he had met while collecting firewood two days before.

His heart stopped beating. It couldn’t be that lovely lady, could it?

He didn’t say anything, despite having a guess. It was better to go with the flow at first.

He returned home and briefly explained everything to his uncle. “I didn’t expect you to be this popular with the girls this year,” Uncle Hu exclaimed as he patted him on the shoulder..
