Chapter 999: Chapter 999: My Sister is Settled

Shu Yu looked utterly stunned. “…” What the hell? When did her sister and Zhao Xi progress so quickly? She had only taken her eyes off them for a few days!

She squinted slightly and asked, “Sis, when did you decide to go to the prefecture, and when did you tell Zhao Xi?”

She was even later to know than Zhao Xi. Not happy.

Shuyou hurriedly explained, “Yu, don’t misunderstand. This matter, this matter just came up this morning. When I was picking up inventory in the workshop today, Zhao Xi came to help. We were talking about the lack of fabric, and one thing led to another, and we brought up the idea of going to the prefecture to get more supplies.”

Shu Yu stroked her chin. “Oh?”

She looked at her sister with a meaningful expression, making Shuyou’s cheeks flush bright red. Her tone had a hint of pleading, “Yu…”

“Cough, okay, okay, I believe you,” Shu Yu finally relented and got serious. She leaned close and whispered, “Sis, have you already made up your mind?”

“…Mm.”

Shu Yu didn’t press further. The Lu family trusted Zhao Xi’s character, and they were clear about his background.

As long as her sister was willing, the Lu family would naturally be happy. It showed she had truly moved on from the shadow of the Zhang family and was ready for a new chapter in her marital life.

“Alright then, since Zhao Xi is your coachman this time, leave it to him.” She had no intention of taking away this rare chance to shine—she feared Zhao Xi would fight her for it.

This guy might not have great martial skills, but his wits were sharp. After traveling so much over the years, he was indeed more suitable than Ying Dong.

The two chatted while finishing organizing their belongings.

Shu Yu promised to come over in two or three days to help watch the shop, so Shuyou could take her time strolling around the prefecture.

Shuyou felt reassured and soon headed outside as someone called for her.

Shu Yu returned to the backyard and noticed Ding Yuehua’s face was no longer clouded with worry—it seemed she had come up with a solution.

She didn’t ask what Yuehua’s plan was; instead, it was Yuehua who leaned over and suddenly said, “Your sister is getting prettier by the day. When she greeted me just now, I was momentarily stunned.”

“Good food, good drinks, and a healthy spirit—our family has good genes, of course she’d look great.”

Ding Yuehua nodded in agreement. “That’s true. Speaking of which, my maternal family has a distant male cousin who’s quite decent. He’s the same age as your sister. Handsome and capable. Though he was previously engaged, the girl unfortunately passed away due to illness six months before the wedding, which delayed his marriage prospects. How about I introduce him to your sister?”

Shu Yu: “…” From the moment Yuehua started mentioning her cousin’s marriage situation, Shu Yu already guessed what was coming.

Sure enough, her sister’s marital prospects were now on the radar of more than just one or two families.

Why had their Grandmother been spending so much time in the ready-to-wear clothes shop lately? One reason was that the shop was busy. The other was to avoid people.

Never mind the neighbors, even two matchmakers had come by already.

“No need. Don’t go matchmaking all willy-nilly.”

“How is this willy-nilly? He’s a good match—I naturally want to think of you all. My cousin really is outstanding. Your sister’s been divorced for almost a year now; it’s time to start looking again. Don’t worry, once your sister’s marriage is settled, I’ll keep an eye out for you too—you’re about ready…”

“Stop,” Shu Yu quickly cut her off, raising her head to scrutinize Yuehua from head to toe. “You’ve only been married half a year, and you’re already turning into a full-fledged matchmaker?”

Ding Yuehua glared at her.

Shu Yu cleared her throat. “Rest assured, my sister already has someone in sight.”
