Be a small county magistrate in ancient times

Chapter 696 It's normal to look down on it

Meng Changqing looked at Zuo Datou, "Didn't they mention it on the way?"

"I was afraid Miss Shu would have to wait too long, so I didn't have a chance to say it." Zuo Datou pulled Xiao Wuzi in front of him. "I'll introduce you to someone. This Miss Shu is two years older than you, and she's a reliable person. What do you think?"

Xiao Wuzi blushed after hearing this, and didn't dare to look in the direction of Shu Erhua.

Before Xiao Wuzi could react, Zuo Datou stepped forward and said to Shu Erhua, "This is Xiao Wuzi. Look, he's not bad looking, is he?" After he finished speaking, he looked up and only saw the back of a head. He then scolded Xiao Wuzi, "Turn around and let people see you!"

Xiao Wuzi shrank his neck, covered half of his face with one hand, and dared not move.

Looking at this reaction, Meng Changqing thought to himself, "Isn't it too early to introduce him to someone?"

Seeing his bashful appearance, Zuo Datou reached out and pulled him, saying, "Come here!"

The person had turned around, but their face was flushed red, as if it were about to bleed. Zuo Datou was still introducing them, saying, "Look, their eyebrows, eyes, mouth, and nose aren't bad, are they?"

Meng Changqing covered his face. This Zuo Datou, you must never be a matchmaker again. Is this a matchmaking meeting or a donkey being sold at the market?

Xiao Wuzi was practically like a wild donkey he'd kidnapped along the way.

Shu Erhua could also see Xiao Wuzi's predicament. "Zuo Tou, let's not force it."

Upon hearing Shu Erhua's words, Xiao Wuzi looked at her, but the moment their eyes met, he quickly lowered his head.

"No, no, no, how is that forcing me?" Although Zuo Datou genuinely cared about Xiao Wuzi, his approach wasn't very clever. He slapped Xiao Wuzi on the shoulder, "You brat, say something in front of the girl!"

What could Xiao Wuzi say? The fact that he was even standing here was already a testament to his courage.

Seeing this, Meng Changqing stood up and said, "Don't rush me. I think Xiao Wu is too shy in front of you. Why don't you go and look at other shops?"

Despite Zuo Datou's rough handling of this matter, he also had some thoughtful aspects. "We're all leaving now, wouldn't it be bad to leave them there?"

"Who said everyone has to leave? You go, I'll sit here." Meng Changqing was really not being polite and even tried to shoo people away. "Go on, go now." Zuo Datou had no choice but to say to Meng Changqing, "Then please keep an eye on things."

Meng Changqing was willing to take the trouble to do this kind of thing.

After Zuo Datou left, Xiao Wuzi indeed relaxed a bit, mainly because Shu Erhua didn't put any pressure on him. She even poured him water and pulled out a stool for him to sit down.

She was thinking that since she was older, she should take care of him and treat him like a customer who had come to buy snacks.

After a while, Xiao Wuzi finally spoke, "I didn't expect that the reason I was called here was to arrange a marriage for me."

The implication is that he was not prepared for this.

Shu Erhua replied, "I only found out a little earlier than you. Don't worry, Zuo Tou's intention is just for us to meet once, not to force you to marry me." As she finished speaking, Shu Erhua couldn't help but chuckle, wondering why she was comforting someone else.

Xiao Wuzi looked up at Shu Erhua, then looked down again after a while.

Meng Changqing watched from the side and shook his head. What a pity!
Meng Changqing could tell from Xiao Wuzi's eyes that he had taken a liking to Shu Erhua.

Meng Changqing couldn't tell whether Shu Erhua had taken a liking to Xiao Wuzi.

"Do you even look at me?" This was the question Xiao Wu asked.

Meng Changqing was surprised, thinking to himself that this was completely inconsistent with his shy and timid behavior earlier.

Shu Erhua was at a loss for words when faced with such a direct question.

Just as they were struggling with their dilemma, Meng Changqing interrupted their conversation, "Whether they like you or not, can you accept it?" She was asking Xiao Wuzi.

Xiao Wuzi nodded and said, "It's normal that you don't like me; it would be strange if you did."
