Chapter 248: The Betrothal Gifts Have Been Sent

This issue is very serious and needs to be discussed properly.

The information Shi Youxuan gathered is: Alisha's parents are both deceased, she has no relatives, and her maiden family is very simple.

Her in-laws are even simpler; her husband and children all passed away in an accident, and her in-laws drove her out of the house to seize the property, so now she is all alone with no ties.

After arriving home, Shi Youxuan called Alisha into her room for a deep talk.

"Alisha, tell me the truth, why are you resistant to matchmaking?"

A few days ago, Zhu Yiwen misunderstood the situation between the two of them; Shi Youxuan was very angry at the time, but thinking about it now, it is not without reason.

Of course, there is no problem with her own sexual orientation, but whether Alisha is the same, she does not know.

If Alisha is, Shi Youxuan will not introduce men to her anymore.

Sheng Hanyu can guess pretty much what is on Shi Youxuan's mind, but a miss by a hair is a miss by a thousand miles!

Sheng Hanyu guessed that Shi Youxuan suspected his sexual orientation, but he did not guess the thoughts that followed.

He wrote on paper to tell Shi Youxuan that he was not resistant to matchmaking, but rather did not know it was matchmaking!

It wasn't said that they were going to talk business? But that man didn't talk business properly at all, but just kept staring at her, so she thought that person was not a good person.

Shi Youxuan was half-believing and half-doubting: "Really?"

Sheng Hanyu nodded vigorously, indicating it was absolutely true!

Then Shi Youxuan asked him again what his impression of Zhang Dage was.

This time Alisha shook her head, indicating it was not good, complaining that his perfume was too heavy, he lacked masculinity, and he had three children at home, so she did not want to become a stepmother the moment she entered the door.

Since she does not want to, then forget it.

If Zhang Dage doesn't work, there is still Li Dage, Wang Dage...

Shi Youxuan began to scout for new matchmaking candidates for Alisha.

Sheng Hanyu admitted himself that he was not resistant to matchmaking, but now he has a mouth but cannot defend himself, and simply has no reason to refuse, so he can only bite the bullet and go to see them one by one, and then use various reasons to reject them one by one!

He thought that if he rejected too many, Shi Youxuan would feel she was too picky and then give up this idea.

But he did not expect that very soon, the next matchmaking candidate would cause him a lot of trouble.

Lady Qi has a cousin who is forty years old this year; his family background is prominent and he is handsome, but he has never been married.

The main reason is that when he was young and studying abroad in the United States, he had a lover, and the two had a very good relationship, but his parents absolutely refused to agree and insisted that he marry a girl from his own country.

But he did not like girls from his own country, finding them conservative and old-fashioned in their thinking.

Then it was delayed, and it remained fruitless until he was forty.

He has had countless matchmaking sessions, and the number of girls he has seen is far more than the number of men Alisha has seen.

Alisha has had repeated matchmaking sessions recently, and none of them have been satisfactory; now it is rumored outside that she has high standards and is very picky.

So when Lady Qi mentioned her cousin, Shi Youxuan did not hold much hope.

So many people who were eager to marry Alisha did not succeed in the end; Lady Qi's cousin's reputation for being picky is even louder than Alisha's. Could they possibly see eye to eye? Unless Mars hits the Earth.

But this time, Mars really wants to hit the Earth.

After meeting, both of them appeared indifferent, looking as if they had no interest in the other party.

Alisha was truly not interested, but after Lady Qi's cousin went back, he said to his cousin: "This woman is fine, I agree."

If this were in the past, based on Alisha's looks and her status as a widow, his parents would absolutely not have agreed.

But now that their son is already forty, his parents' standards for a daughter-in-law have been lowered to "as long as it's a woman"!

The old man and old lady immediately urged their niece to go give an answer right away; if the other party agrees, they will immediately send the betrothal gifts and set the wedding date.

It was already dark, and Lady Qi's sudden visit gave Shi Youxuan a start.

However, after the two met, Lady Qi explained her purpose, which made Shi Youxuan overjoyed.

Among all the matchmaking candidates introduced to Alisha, Qi Heng's cousin is the one with the best conditions in every aspect.

Unmarried, good family background, good personality, good job.

The most important advantage is that he is too picky; he didn't like girls from L Country before he was married, so the probability of him cheating after marriage is also relatively small, almost zero.

Shi Youxuan asked Lady Qi to wait a moment while she went to ask for Alisha's opinion.

Actually, it doesn't matter if she asks or not; if she doesn't agree to this one, what kind of person does she still want to find?

"Knock, knock, knock."

She knocked on the door but no one opened it; she pushed the door open and saw that Alisha was not in the room either.

If she is not in her own room, she is in Shi Ran's room; basically, it is just these two places.

Shi Youxuan went to Shi Ran's room, and Alisha was indeed there.

The big one and the small one were studying on the computer; Alisha was teaching very seriously, and Shi Ran was also learning very carefully!

If this were any other matter, Shi Youxuan would certainly not disturb the two of them.

But this matter is different; it concerns Alisha's happiness for the rest of her life. She walked over and said softly: "Alisha, I have something important to tell you."

Learning on the software has a fixed time limit, and now it is just at a critical moment and cannot be disturbed.

Alisha signaled for her to speak here, as she could not leave!

The child is here, so she cannot speak in too much detail.

Lady Qi is still waiting in the living room, and she cannot let her wait for too long.

Shi Youxuan could only express it vaguely: "Alisha, Lady Qi is here, what do you think?"

Alisha nodded, indicating she knew.

But she misunderstood, mistakenly thinking that Alisha had agreed!

Shi Youxuan was so happy she couldn't close her mouth, but for the sake of certainty, she asked one more time: "Did you hear what I just said? If you have no objections, I will make the decision. Do you think that's okay?"

The two of them were now fully focused on the computer; even if they heard her, they didn't understand what she meant, and just wanted her to leave quickly. She was too noisy, and if they were affected again, they definitely wouldn't be able to level up today.

This concerns whether Shi Ran can get an admission ticket to the hacker competition!

If she could successfully get her hands on it, she would be the youngest high-level hacker in the world.

Sheng Hanyu nodded repeatedly, indicating: Agreed, agreed, I agree with whatever you say, hurry up and go out, don't disturb us anymore.

"Alright, you two continue with your business."

Shi Youxuan went out happily to report the "good news" to Lady Qi: "Alisha has no objections, I think she is quite happy."

"Really? That's wonderful!"

Lady Qi was even happier, so happy that she couldn't sit still.

She stood up and spun around in place twice, then called her aunt and uncle: "Send the betrothal gifts over, I have discussed the auspicious date with Lady Zhu."

Shi Youxuan was a bit surprised: "What, sending the betrothal gifts now? Isn't it a bit too early?"

"It's not early, my aunt has been looking forward to this day for over ten years, she's been waiting until her eyes turned blue, let's get them settled quickly to avoid any complications."

Lady Qi was naturally a straightforward person and had always been swift and decisive.

With her saying it like that, Shi Youxuan also felt it made sense.

Right, take advantage of the fact that both of them agreed to settle it for them, so they wouldn't regret it later!

Lady Qi's aunt and uncle acted very quickly; an hour later, they arrived by car with a witness to deliver the betrothal gifts.

The betrothal gifts were prepared very generously: a set of solid gold jewelry, a set of diamond jewelry, and a set of solid silver jewelry.

In addition, there were fabrics, silk, high-end cosmetics...

The silk was the most precious variety imported from Jiangzhou; Jiangzhou silk was very famous in L Country, and Lady Qi's aunt's family specialized in the silk business.

L Country was considered a tropical region, humid and hot for long periods.

Silk and pure silk clothing were very popular there, but because the price was expensive, ordinary people could not afford them.

Gradually, silk became a symbol of status, and for the Jiao Family to bring a whole truckload was indeed a grand gesture.

But these were not all; there were also the betrothal money and real estate.

The old lady of the Jiao Family smiled and said to Shi Youxuan: "Lady Zhu, please rest assured, as long as your sister marries into the Jiao Family and can bear children to carry on the family line, that will be a great merit!"

"We old folks only have this one son, and in the future, we will treat our daughter-in-law like our own daughter..."
