In the courtyard, everyone is afraid of the little boy who is so smart!

After Wang Jiqing finished speaking, he slowly turned around and walked towards the door with firm steps.

His figure, illuminated by the sunlight, carried an unquestionable majesty. Arriving at the door, he leaned forward slightly and raised his voice to shout:

"Xiu'e, Xiaochan, come out for a moment."

The sound penetrated the silence in the house, and soon, Zhao Xiu'e and Yang Chan walked out one after another.

There was a hint of doubt in Zhao Xiu'e's eyes, while Yang Chan's face was full of confusion, and there was a gleam of curiosity in her clear eyes.

Wang Jiqing looked at them with a serious expression but tried to slow down his tone as much as possible, and explained in detail the purpose of Wang Jianguo and the other two's visit.

As they were talking, the atmosphere inside and outside the house seemed to freeze, and everyone was waiting for Zhao Xiu'e and Yang Chan's response.

Zhao Xiu'e was the first to break the silence. She gently patted Yang Chan's shoulder, her eyes full of love and concern:

"Xiaochan, aunt and your uncle have the same idea. This is your lifelong event. We will not make the decision for you. We will listen to your opinion."

In an instant, four pairs of eyes focused on Yang Chan. The gazes were as hot as spotlights, and Yang Chan felt her face burning.

She lowered her head slightly, her hands unconsciously fiddling with the corners of her clothes, her toes gently paddling on the ground.

After a long while, she said in a voice as soft as a mosquito but firm:

"I...I'm willing to try to contact him."

Wang Jiqing felt relieved, and his expression eased a lot. He took a step forward, looked at Yang Chan gently, and said earnestly:

"Xiaochan, please don't feel pressured. This is just a normal way of getting to know each other and getting to know each other."

"If during this process you find that he has any faults, or if you are not happy with him, just tell your aunt and uncle."

"We are your backers and will never let anyone force you to do anything you don't want to do."

Yang Chan raised her head, looked at Wang Jiqing firmly, and nodded vigorously:

"I know, uncle. Don't worry. If he is really a bad person, I will not be nice to him even if you force me with a knife."

"I know what I want and I will be responsible for my own happiness."

Hearing Yang Chan's powerful words, Wang Jiqing and Zhao Xiu'e looked at each other and smiled, their smiles full of relief and assurance.

They nodded slightly, motioning Yang Chan to go into the house and have a brief chat with Cheng Erhua.

Yang Chan took a deep breath, as if she had mustered up great courage, and then walked slowly into the house with a slightly nervous yet expectant step.

Yang Chan nodded slightly, that gentle movement carrying a hint of shyness and anticipation, and then she walked into the house with light steps.

At this moment, the sunlight outside the house was shining into the yard. Wang Jiqing, Zhao Xiu'e, Wang Jianguo and Zhao Shuzhuo were sitting together, and the topic unfolded naturally.

They talked about the future development blueprint of the village and the new opportunities that the soon-to-be-opened supply and marketing society would bring to the village.

Imagining the prosperous scene after the village's agricultural products reach a wider market through the supply and marketing cooperatives, laughter and joy can be heard from time to time.

Inside the house, two young people, Yang Chan and Cheng Erhua, sat opposite each other, discussing each other's lives, hobbies and aspirations for the future in a slightly reserved but curious manner.

The atmosphere was quiet yet with a hint of subtle tension. For a moment, both inside and outside the house were enveloped in a peaceful and hopeful atmosphere.

Time passed quietly. After an unknown amount of time, the door slowly opened and Yang Chan and Cheng Erhua walked out of the house side by side.

There was a faint blush on their faces, but there was a hint of intimacy and tacit understanding in their eyes.

Wang Jiqing immediately stood up, walked forward quickly with concern and expectation, stared at Yang Chan closely, and asked softly:

"Xiaochan, how was the chat?"

Yang Chan's cheeks became increasingly hot. She secretly glanced at Cheng Erhua beside her, with a hint of shyness and joy in her eyes.

Then he quickly looked away, staring at the ground below, twisting the corners of his clothes with his hands unconsciously, and said in a soft and slightly shy voice:

"Uncle, the chat was good. He...he told me a lot about himself, such as his work in the production team and his thoughts on the future."

"I think he is a sincere and down-to-earth person who is also very motivated. I want to get along with him first."

When Wang Jianguo and Zhao Shuzhuo heard this, they were suddenly filled with joy.

They were originally worried that Yang Chan would resist Cheng Erhua, but they didn't expect that their first conversation would go so smoothly.

Yang Chan has a very good impression of Cheng Erhua and is willing to give them a chance to get along with each other.

In this way, the marriage got off to a very good start, and they did not disappoint Aunt Du's trust.

Wang Jiqing and Zhao Xiu'e looked at Yang Chan's slightly shy yet determined look, and understood in their hearts.

Yang Chan really wants to try to start a new relationship in order to get out of the haze of the past and embrace her own happy life.

So they looked at each other, understood each other, and didn't say anything more, but their eyes revealed a hint of relief and silent blessings.

Wang Jiqing opened his lips slightly, as if he was about to say something, and he seemed to be having a fierce struggle in his heart.

He knew very well that there were some things stuck in his throat that he had to say, but he was afraid that once he said it, it would cause unpredictable consequences.

The words were on his lips, but he swallowed them down. After repeating them several times, he finally chose to remain silent.

Wang Jianguo and Zhao Shuzhuo realized that the purpose of their trip had been achieved, and felt relieved. They said goodbye to Wang Jiqing's family and prepared to return to Jianguo Village.

They walked towards the door, and just as they were about to step out, Wang Jiqing seemed to have suddenly made up his mind and called out to several people.

With a look of determination in his eyes, he walked quickly forward and stopped in front of Cheng Erhua.

At this time, Cheng Erhua looked at Wang Jiqing with a puzzled look on his face. Wang Jiqing took a deep breath and slowly said:

"Young man, there is something I want to talk to you about. I don't know if you have heard any rumors that our Xiaochan was engaged before."

"At that time, both families had already discussed the marriage, but who could have imagined that something unexpected happened on the man's side and the engagement was cancelled."

"This incident caused quite a stir in our village, and Xiaochan suffered a lot of grievances and gossip because of it."
