Just based on the young master's age that was suitable for Wen Jiu to not get married to, there were seven or eight of them. And what the Mrs. Zhang was talking about, was obviously the Fifth Young Master Xie Qi who was happy about her in his previous life, but died on the same day.

It was unknown what the difference was between Father Wen and Mrs. Wen; Wen Jiu had been tricked so miserably in his previous life, to the point where he could not forget it even in death.

Initially, Wen Jiu thought that he had tarnished the reputation of the Wen Family, which was why the Mrs. Zhang was in such a hurry to marry him. But now, he realised that it was simply because the Mrs. Zhang and Wen Fang had discussed to sell her off.

”All of the young masters of the Xie Family are extremely handsome, and are extremely famous in the entire Changping County!” Mrs. Zhang said, ”As long as you marry her, you will naturally know how your future husband will look like. This is a new set of clothes that Grandfather and I have prepared for you.

Wen Jiu sat without moving.

This was too hasty.

She did not reply, and allowed Mrs. Zhang and Wen Fang to continuously praise just how rich and wealthy Xie Family was. Young Master Xie Family was talented, he could not find such a good place even with a lantern.

No matter how they praised him, Wen Jiu still looked uninterested, and the atmosphere in the room became more and more tense.

When the sound of the music reached the entrance, the neighbors started to jeer and the chattering children began to cry from the noise. All the sounds mingled together, creating an especially noisy scene in the alleyway.

The young man's lazy voice passed through the gap between the door and the door, striking right into Wen Jiu's ears, ”Jiu of the Wen Family, are you willing to marry my Xie Family Wife?”

Wen Jiu laughed.

Voluntary? How is this possible!?

Mrs. Zhang and the others evidently did not expect that someone from the Xie Family would come so quickly, but Wen Jiu did not have any intention to waver in the slightest, and they were instantly dumbstruck.

Wen Fang stood up and looked out of the window. The neighbors were already discussing this matter, wondering why the Wen family didn't reveal anything before they married their daughter. They complained that they didn't say anything earlier, and now they didn't even have time to prepare a bit of money.

”Jiu!”

Mrs. Zhang dragged Wen Jiu and stood up, beads of perspiration trickling down his forehead, ”Hurry and answer! Someone is coming from Xie Family. Look at the young man wearing a red robe riding on a big horse outside, he's so handsome! ”Why wouldn't you want to?”

Father Wen and Mrs. Wen could no longer sit still. They had just talked about this matter and Wen Jiu had not even agreed. Why did the Xie Family bring a bridal sedan to welcome a new person?

Mrs. Wen said: ”Granny, Jiu has yet to agree to this marriage! What exactly is going on? ”

”Don't ask anymore, isn't agreeing now the same? Just change your clothes, Jiu will answer! Young Master Xie Family will like you even more if you hear it! ” Mrs. Zhang was practically coaxing and deceiving him.

Fifth Young Master Xie Qi had been weak since childhood, and would have to lie down for a few days just to blow the wind outside.

It was probably just to let one of his brothers take his place.

When that terrible thing happened in his previous life, forget about getting married off, he didn't even have the face to let others know that Mrs. Zhang took a red robe and wrapped her up, then sent her to the Xie's Mansion overnight.

Wen Jiu really didn't know who was outside the door now. If he could ask her if she was willing, then this person's character was probably pretty proper.

No matter how Mrs. Zhang urged him, Wen Jiu maintained a nonchalant look. Mrs. Zhang had no choice, as long as he showed his face, he would pull his broken throat and reply with a gong: I am willing! Naturally, he was willing! The bride is still dressing herself, so Young Master and the other lords, please wait a little longer! ”

”Dad, Grandma still wants to marry when she's sixty-three this year. We can't afford to lose face here, so I'll help you go back to your room.” Wen Jiu helped Father Wen up and left the mess behind.

In any case, she wasn't in a hurry to get married. Whoever wanted to marry off would have to!
