The moment the elder saw Mr. Tang, he shot him a glare. It was really outrageous. Because today was a joyous occasion, the elder did not criticize him. He would wait until this matter was over.

Matchmaker Chu took the lead and smiled. “Let’s go.”

Tang Jinghong looked up at Chu Qingzhi’s house, and a hint of anticipation flashed across his eyes.

Chu Qingzhi was dressing herself up in the room. Usually, she would tie her hair in a ponytail and finish up with a wooden hairpin as an accessory. However, today, because Tang Jinghong would come to propose marriage, she couldn’t dress so casually.

Her sisters were helping her dress up in the room.

Chu Qingning suggested, “Second Sister, let’s put on the jewelry that Brother Jinghong gave Fifth Sister yesterday. Brother Jinghong probably wants to see it too.”

Chu Qingyue did not make the decision rashly. Instead, she asked Chu Qingzhi, “Qingzhi, is that okay?”

Chu Qingzhi looked at herself in the mirror, who looked especially exquisite and beautiful today, and nodded. “Put it on. Today is an important day for me.”

She also wanted to show her most beautiful side in front of the person she liked.

Outside, Matchmaker Chu led the way. The others followed her into the courtyard.

Matchmaker Chu raised her voice. “Chu Tai, Jinghong is here to propose marriage.”

Grandpa Chu was the first to walk out to welcome them. His face was as bright as a flower. “Uncle, Village Chief, in-laws, Matchmaker Chu, Jinghong, I’ve already prepared tea. Please come in.”

Granny Chu, Li Qingyu, and Chu Rong came out to greet them. Everyone was wearing red clothes today and looked very happy.

Everyone took their seats in the central room. The soldiers placed the boxes one by one in the central room before standing to the side.

The villagers followed over to watch the show. Soon, the inside and outside were filled with people. Everyone discussed softly. It was extremely lively.

“Oh my god, aren’t the betrothal gifts too generous?”

“I’ve never seen so many betrothal gifts in my life. Even the rich young ladies in the county don’t have so many, right?”

“That’s right.”

There was fruit and candy on the table, and people were free to take whatever they liked.

Three letters and six etiquettes were the traditional process of the marriage proposal. As it was a formal marriage, none of the process could be skipped

The three letters referred to the betrothal letter, the gift letter, and the wedding letter.

Betrothal letter was a letter of marriage agreement between the man and the woman.

Gift letter was a letter that listed the gifts.

Wedding letter was a letter used on the day of the wedding when the groom was picking up the bride from her house.

The six etiquettes referred to Proposal, Birth Date Matching, Na Ji, Presenting the Wedding Gift, and Arranging the Marriage.

The man’s family asked the matchmaker for the woman’s name and date of birth.

Matchmaker Chu smiled and said, “Sister Qingyu, where’s Qingzhi?”

As soon as she finished speaking, Chu Eighth ran out of the room and said loudly, “My Fifth Sister is coming out. She’s so beautiful today, like a fairy.”

After saying that, Chu Eighth retreated to the side. Then, a beauty walked out of the room.

Chu Qingzhi was wearing a dark red dress that made her skin look even fairer. She was already slender, but now, she looked especially graceful.

There was a pearl agate necklace around her neck, a golden jade hairpin on her hair, and a silver hairpin engraved with spring flowers. She also had light green earrings with jade on her ears. She was undoubtedly the center of all attention at this moment.

A series of gasps came from the crowd. At this moment, everyone was thinking that their village had produced a phoenix. Even the princess might not be as beautiful as Qingzhi.

Tang Jinghong stood up immediately. Qingzhi was more beautiful than all the girls he had seen. Moreover, her beauty seemed to be innate. Looking at her was like looking at a field of flowers. No, even a field of flowers would pale in comparison.

She was as dazz;omg as the sun and as beautiful as the autumn moon.

Chu Qingzhi walked into the central room calmly. Her long dress fluttered slightly, and her body seemed to be emitting a dazzling light. She was elegant and graceful.

Her gaze landed on Tang Jinghong.

Tang Jinghong was wearing a silver head band with rubies on it. Half of his hair was draped over his back.

He was dressed in a dark red robe and had a slender figure. His shoulders were wide and his waist was narrow. His straight figure exuded a hint of dignity.

The two of them looked at each other and smiled, feeling very sweet.

Chu Qingshuang pulled Chu Qingyue’s sleeve and was extremely stunned. “Second Sister, Fifth Sister is so beautiful. 1 can’t describe her beauty with words at all.”

Chu Qingyue smiled. “Fifth Sister is the most beautiful among us.”

Chu Qingshuang agreed. “Yes, yes, yes, exactly.”

Chu Qingning suddenly interrupted, “Don’t you think Brother Jinghong is also super handsome?”

Chu Qingshuang said excitedly, “That’s right. Brother Jinghong looks even better and more elegant than the young masters in the county. He’s really compatible with our Fifth Sister.”

Chu Qingning nodded. “The more I look at them, the more compatible they are.”

Chu Xuyao agreed. “Fifth Sister has always been beautiful. Now that she’s dressed up, she looks like a fairy.”

Everyone’s eyes stopped on the two of them. The man was handsome, and the woman was beautiful.. Was this what they meant by a match made in heaven?
