Hearing the word "marriage" from Huang Shengyue's mouth, Song Qingming was really caught off guard, and his body couldn't help but be stunned on the spot.

Looking at the delicate woman sitting beside him, he saw that besides some nervousness on her face, there was not much surprise. She should have known about this long ago.

"The Huang and Song families have not married for the first time in these two hundred years. Looking back, several people from our Huang family have also married into the Song family. I remember that Xianlong's grandmother was married from your Song family. It's just that the two families have moved much less in these decades. Now that Fellow Daoist Song and my Siyuan are destined, there is just an opportunity to continue the connection between the two families. This can also be considered as our two families' relationship going a step further." Seeing that Huang Shengyue had already opened her mouth, Huang Shengxin also nodded and echoed.

"What the two fellow daoists said is also for our two families' relationship to be closer. Qingming naturally has no objections to this point. It's just that I have just reached Foundation Establishment and am in the time of focusing on cultivation. If Fellow Daoist Siyuan follows me, I am afraid it will wrong her now. If the two families want to marry, can we consider other brothers and sisters in the clan?"

Ever since the Song family migrated to Qinghe County two hundred years ago, the Huang and Song families have indeed married several times, but those were all the Song family taking the initiative to marry the female cultivators in the clan to the Huang family. The purpose is self-evident: to be closer to the Huang family, the main family, and exchange for more protection.

Now that the Huang family wants to marry their own cultivators to the Song family, the purpose is also very obvious. Besides winning him over, there is another point: they want to put an eye beside Song Qingming and keep an eye on their Song family at all times. Song Qingming naturally felt somewhat unwilling about this in his heart.

Hearing that Song Qingming seemed somewhat unhappy, Huang Shengyue frowned and said slowly: "It's not that our Huang family can't change to someone else. It's just that we have just discussed it with Fellow Daoist Changfeng. Besides you, your Song family can't find a suitable candidate for a while, so we considered you."

"Fellow Daoist Changfeng has already said before that Fellow Daoist Song is not yet married and has never heard of anyone he likes. He is the most suitable person for our two families to marry. Of course, if Fellow Daoist Song is unwilling, you can say it directly. We elders cannot force others to do things. Fellow Daoist Changfeng, don't you think so?"

Song Changfeng hurriedly said nervously: "Senior Huang is right. It is also my fault for not telling Qingming earlier. This matter concerns the relationship between our two families in the future. Now that things have reached this point, we definitely cannot give up halfway. Senior, why not give us two days to discuss this matter? The junior will definitely give Senior a satisfactory answer as soon as possible."

"That's fine. We will stay in Qinghe Market for two more days, waiting for the good news from the two of you."

After leaving Huixian Tower, Song Qingming followed Song Changfeng back to the Song family shop with a depressed face.

He knew from the beginning that Sixth Uncle's appearance there was very strange. He didn't expect that these two old guys from the Huang family would hit on him so quickly, plus Sixth Uncle sold his bottom line clean in advance, which really made him encounter a troublesome thing.

"Qingming, Sixth Uncle knows that you are used to being alone and don't want anyone to drag you down. But this time, for the sake of the Song family, I can only wrong you for a while." After returning, Song Changfeng immediately pulled Song Qingming into a secret room alone and persuaded him.

Song Qingming asked somewhat puzzled: "Sixth Uncle, why are others not suitable? Eldest Brother, Fifth Brother, Sixth Brother... are all unmarried. Why didn't the Huang family look at them?"

"Sigh! Things are not as simple as you think. You also know what status the Huang family has in Qinghe County. In the past, when our family married the Huang family, they were all married to their family. This time, besides you, if we choose others, the other party would basically not be willing to marry them to our family. If you are really unwilling, we can only choose one person to marry over to end this matter."

Song Changfeng rubbed his forehead, shook his head sadly, and continued:

"The reason why I agreed to wrong you before is because there is really no way. There is no suitable person in the 'Chang' generation, and the 'Xin' generation is too young. If we want to pick one to marry over, we can only choose from your generation. Besides those who are already married, I... I really can't bear to part with the remaining few."

"Your Second Sister Qingwan's alchemy is the treasure of our family. The family has cultivated her for many years, and all the affairs in Qinghe Market depend on her in the future. How can we easily give her to others? Old Tenth Qingyu, needless to say, her spiritual root aptitude plus your support in the future, maybe there is still a chance for Foundation Establishment. Old Fourteenth Qingsi, she has some talent in formations. As long as she is cultivated patiently, she will definitely reach the level of Third Uncle back then."

"Qingming, I really can't bear to give any of the three of them away."

"Sixth Uncle, you are right. It is I who considered myself too much. Without the family's protection for so many years, how could I have achieved what I have today? Furthermore, the Huang family's plotting for this matter should not be a day or two. They also know that we have no choice." After Song Qingming finished speaking, he sighed helplessly.

Song Changfeng nodded and smiled again: "You don't have to have such a bitter face. I think that Huang family woman is indeed not bad, and she has a good hand at spirit cooking. The person chosen this time can be considered to have given you enough face."

Upon hearing Song Changfeng mention the Huang family girl at the dinner table, Song Qingming's eyes again reflected her delicate face.

To tell the truth, Song Qingming was not so resistant to her in his heart. He just felt that he had some secrets that he couldn't let people know easily. Having a Huang family member staying by his side all the time still made him worry more or less.

Now, as Sixth Uncle said, if he doesn't sacrifice himself, he has to sacrifice Second Sister and Qingyu and the others. Song Qingming, standing from the perspective of the Song family, is naturally very unwilling. Both have to make sacrifices. In the end, he still can't be so selfish.

He is a Foundation Establishment cultivator now. If he really doesn't want to make sacrifices, even Patriarch Song Changfeng can't force him to make a choice.

"Sixth Uncle, the Huang family arranged for her to come over, probably also to monitor me conveniently. I agree to marry, but don't be in a hurry to get married. Help me find a reason to push this matter to two years later. Give me some more time to think about how to deal with this matter."

Song Changfeng nodded thoughtfully and said: "That's fine! I'll go say this."

After the uncle and nephew discussed it, Song Changfeng went to Huixian Tower the next day to reply to the Huang family.

It was just that what Song Qingming never expected was that when Song Changfeng came back, he actually brought Huang Siyuan, the woman who was going to marry him next, back together.

There is a mistake, I will correct it immediately.
