Chapter 127: Engagement (Part 1)

Liu Dalang kicked Liu Erlang. “Shut up. She’s the one I dreamed of.”

Liu Erlang was stunned and looked at Liu Dalang in a daze. What? Did he hear wrongly?

How could his eldest brother like such a woman who had nothing, no figure and no money??

Liu Dalang could not be bothered with Liu Erlang and ignored his unsightly expression. Everyone had their own taste.

Tang An was not ugly. She was very good-looking. She was thin and weak because she did not eat well.

Since his family was well-off, he would naturally take care of her in the future.

Liu Erlang liked those who were raised well, and he liked to raise them himself. Only he knew the joy of doing this.

After washing up, Liu Dalang ignored Liu Erlang.

Liu Erlang facepalmed and sighed.

It seemed that he could not complain about his future sister-in-law being too skinny. Otherwise, his brother would be so angry that he would beat him up.

In mid-August, Madam Wei took two days off on August 15.

Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan were getting engaged.

Chu Yan’s father was a farmer. He did not discipline Chu Yan much. When he came to visit, he was very polite and humble because of his relatively lower status. From time to time, he would look at Chu Yan.

......

Somehow, he did not feel like a father to Chu Yan. Their relationship was very distant. He was a little surprised that Chu Yan took the initiative to propose marriage. He used to think that his son might end up remaining single for the rest of his life.

It was good for him to get married. After all, being single was too lonely.

Liu Sanniang was wearing a pink dress and her hair had been combed by Madam Wei. Liu Sanniang looked at herself in the mirror. She could not believe that she was finally getting engaged.

Mr. Liu only invited the relatives of the Liu family to the engagement party.

Everyone came to witness the event and express their blessings.

Madam Bai asked around and found out that Chu Yan used to be a blacksmith and was now a constable in the government office. No matter what, he was not as good as Liu Shun.

The women sat together and chatted while the men drank.

The cousins sat at the same table and drank. When they grew up, they would only get together when there was something to celebrate.

Mr. Liu was drunk. He was very happy and felt relieved.

Liu San was also drunk. He suddenly stood up drunkenly and said in front of everyone, “Brother, tell me. What’s wrong with that scholar, Liu Shun? We’re people who dote on our daughter. My family thinks this marriage is good, but if it’s really not good, I won’t let Yinniang marry him.”

Liu San could not understand why Liu Sanniang didn’t want Liu Shun as her husband.

As soon as Liu San spoke up, a relative persuaded him. “Today is a happy day. Why are you saying this? Let’s talk about it another day.”

Liu San was silent for a moment. He looked at Mr. Liu. At this moment, the two drunk people knew that they were not really drunk. One was just using the drunkenness as an excuse to ask what he wanted to check.

Mr. Liu picked up the wine on the table and drank it in one gulp. He said, “Then, I’ll be straightforward. Sanniang is a psychic. She is now a master hired by the government office. How can she be wrong?”

Liu San did not believe it. “What master? She’s so young. What does she know? Let her show me and I’ll be convinced.”

When the man made a big commotion, the woman immediately came over.

Madam Wei frowned and slapped Mr. Liu on the head. “You drank too much. What nonsense are you spouting?”

Madam Wei’s slap was a little scary. There were not many women who dared to slap their own men, and men who remained silent after being slapped were not many either.

Madam Bai did not dare to hit Liu San but she pulled him and asked. “Are you crazy?”

Liu San blushed and stopped talking.

Liu Sanniang looked at Liu San and said, “Third Uncle, do you really want to see it?”

Liu San looked at Liu Sanniang. He pushed Madam Bai away, pretending to be drunk, and said, “Sanniang, show me.”

Liu Sanniang grabbed Liu San’s hand. She did not talk. Instead, she showed Liu San what she had seen.

The relatives who wanted to say something to ease the atmosphere also silently shut up when they saw Liu Sanniang’s actions.

For some reason, they kept quiet.

Madam Bai was the most anxious, but at this moment, she did not say anything. She just watched anxiously and waited. All her emotions seemed to be suppressed.

At first, Liu San was still smiling, but when Liu Sanniang grabbed his hand, he could no longer smile. His expression changed and his body trembled slightly.

When he sensed the perception Liu Sanniang sent him, he began to sweat.

His voice was trembling as he said, “Sanniang, is this true?”

Liu Sanniang let go and said calmly, “Third Uncle, do you believe it’s true?”

Liu San looked at Liu Sanniang and didn’t know what to say.

“He’s drunk. Don’t mind him. We’re going back.”

After saying that, Madam Bai dragged Liu San away.

Everyone smiled and the atmosphere quickly eased.

They looked at Liu Sanniang in confusion, but soon, they shifted their attention.

Madam Wei and Mr. Liu heaved a sigh of relief. They were really afraid that their relatives would go on talking about the matter.

Fortunately, they didn’t.

Everyone continued to eat and drink.

Liu Sanniang returned to the house.

It was not until midnight that all the relatives returned. Madam Wei handed the money which Chu Yan gave to Liu Sanniang. It was 500 taels. Madam Wei left without saying anything.

Liu Sanniang put away the silver. Her strength had increased and she could now calm people down. People would not be surprised when they looked at her. They would even ignore her. Other than the people closest to her, everyone else would almost ignore her.

This was a good thing for Liu Sanniang. She did not like to attract attention. No matter what path she took, she would embrace it and leave the rest to fate.

The relatives of the Liu family were also shocked when they went out. Their Liu family actually had a psychic.

The women were very sensitive. “Sanniang is extraordinary. When we were at her house just now, we didn’t feel anything. It was as if there was nothing wrong with her being a master. She just held Liu San’s hand. I didn’t see her do anything, but Liu San’s expression changed.”

The men shuddered. “Stop it. We might have to ask her for help in the future.”

When Liu San and Madam Bai returned home, Madam Bai couldn’t help but ask him. “What happened to you just now?”
