Two days later, Chen Daniu brought over two pieces of clothing and asked Su Xiaoling to help embroider them.
Chen Daniu also knew that this was what she had to wear when she went on the date. Her face turned red.
“Sister Xiaoling, thank you.”
Chen Daniu’s voice was softer than a mosquito’s. Her face was red and she didn’t dare to meet anyone’s eyes.
Su Xiaoling also knew that this was what Chen Daniu wanted to wear for her date. Seeing Chen Daniu blush, she also blushed.
“Xiaoling, let’s talk for a while.”
Chen Dainiu stole a glance at Su Xiaoling and saw that she was also blushing. Chen Dainiu smiled and whispered that the two of them were about the same age. She had reached a very important step in her life and she really wanted to talk to Su Xiaoling.
Su Xiaoling nodded. “Let’s talk inside.”
Su Xiaolu, who was practicing her swordsmanship next door, couldn’t help but want to eavesdrop again.
Eavesdropping was really addictive. Ahhhhh…
Su Xiaolu slowed down her sword practice. Then, she put away her sword, tapped the tip of her foot on the stake, and focused.
Next door.
Su Xiaoling brought Chen Daniu into the room and closed the door.
Chen Daniu said shyly, “Xiaoling, you know about me, right?”
Su Xiaoling nodded. “Yes.”
Su Xiaoling tidied up Chen Daniu’s clothes while listening to her speak.
Chen Daniu was in love. She hooked a strand of hair with her finger and played with it. She smiled embarrassedly and said, “Xiaoling, actually, I heard that he’s studying at the Qingyun Academy. I want to secretly see him first, but I don’t dare to do it alone.”
Regarding the other party, Chen Daniu had eavesdropped on her parents’ conversation and heard a lot. She knew that he was a scholar. It was just that he had yet to pass the Elementary Scholar examination.
He was young and had a lot of hope.
Chen Daniu liked scholars very much, so she was looking forward to the upcoming meeting.
Su Xiaoling smiled and said, “You know where he goes to school, but you don’t know what he looks like. You won’t know him even if you see him.”
Chen Daniu clearly wanted to take a look at that person before they met each other, but it was useless. She only knew his name and didn’t know him. How could she look for him?
Seeing that Su Xiaoling understood what she meant, she pursed her lips and said embarrassedly, “Xiaoling, I actually have an idea.”
Su Xiaoling looked at Chen Daniu in surprise. “What idea?”
From the looks of it, it was obvious that Chen Daniu was determined. She only had concerns and wanted someone to accompany her to give her courage.
Su Xiaoling smiled helplessly. “Tell me. If I can, I’ll help you.”
Chen Daniu smiled shyly and said, “Thank you, Xiaoling. You’re the best.”
“My solution is to get someone to call him out. I’ll buy him a bowl of noodles at the stall and treat him to it. Then we’ll eat at the next table so that I can see him when he comes. Xiaoling, what do you think of my plan?”
Chen Daniu’s eyes lit up. This was the best idea she could think of.
She would find someone to call him out and eat noodles at the noodle shop. There were many people eating noodles at the noodle shop, and it would be natural. She could eat noodles and see what kind of person he was.
Su Xiaoling thought about it carefully and said, “This method would work. Let’s treat it as eating a bowl of noodles. When are you going to do it?”
Chen Daniu smiled. “I want to do it tomorrow. Is that okay?”
After saying that, she looked at Su Xiaoling shyly.
She’d thought of this idea. She really couldn’t wait anymore.
She really couldn’t tell her sister or her parents about this.
No matter how she thought about it, Su Xiaoling was the most suitable because they were similar in age. Also, Su Xiaoling understood her, so she would not tell anyone. This matter was only known to the two of them.
She needed someone with her so badly. If she was alone, her mind would be in a mess and she would be too scared to do it.
Su Xiaoling was shocked. “Tomorrow?”
‘This – this is too much of a rush.’
Chen Daniu’s face was red. She didn’t even dare to look into Su Xiaoling’s eyes. She lowered her eyes and stammered, “I know I’m a little anxious, but I’m too excited. I have a very strange feeling in my heart. I can’t sleep or eat well.”
Ever since she knew that she was going to start matchmaking, she couldn’t sit still anymore.
A woman’s marriage was the most important thing in her life. What kind of life she could live for the rest of her life depended on what kind of person she married.

When she found out that they would be seeing each other in more than a month, how could she eat?
The other party was a scholar. He was out of her league.
How could she not be anxious?
Chen Daniu looked at Su Xiaoling pleadingly. She held Xiaoling’s hand and begged, “Xiaoling, can you help me? Next time, when you have to meet a man, I’ll help you, okay?”
Su Xiaoling blushed and said, “Alright, I promise you.”
Chen Daniu smiled. She looked at Xiaoling and asked, “Xiaoling, we’re about the same age. I already have a match. Yours should be here soon, right?”
Su Xiaoling. She was beautiful and had good culinary skills. Her two brothers were both Elementary Scholars. Su Xiaolu was also a divine doctor. She really did not know what kind of man she would marry in the future.
Su Xiaoling smiled and said, “It’s still early for me. My mother said to wait another two years. She can’t bear to part with me.”
“Two years. Then you’d be sixteen. Just the right age. I’ll be married by then. I won’t be so shy. I’ll help you then. It won’t be a problem.”
Chen Daniu patted her chest and said.
She was too young and timid now.
She wouldn’t be so scared when she was married and braver.
When Su Xiaoling needed it, she would definitely be able to help.
“Alright, if I need it then, I’ll leave it to you.”
Su Xiaoling smiled and said. She and Chen Daniu grew up together, so their relationship was naturally deep.
Chen Daniu had to meet her match. If there was anything that she needed, of course she had to help.
Chen Daniu smiled. Now that Su Xiaoling had agreed, she felt relieved.
Su Xiaoling unfolded her clothes and discussed with her what color to embroider.

Su Xiaolu, who was eavesdropping, exhaled.
It was really tiring to eavesdrop. She had to consume internal energy.
She really didn’t expect Chen Daniu to be so bold to have such an idea.
It was reasonable for her sister to agree. Even she would have agreed.
Su Xiaolu wondered now what reason she would use to go to town tomorrow that Master Gui You would let her pass.
She wanted to see it, too.
When evening came, Gui You returned.
He checked Su Xiaolu’s homework.
Su Xiaolu lay on the ground, her body aching. She said weakly, “Master Gui You, can I take a break tomorrow?”
“I haven’t checked Sun Baoshan and Sun Baoqian’s pulse in a long time. I want to see how their bodies are.”
Su Xiaolu could not think of a better reason than this.
Business in the shop had been booming for years. There was no need for her to promote it.
She didn’t need to worry about food, either. What would she do in town? If she didn’t have a good reason, Gui You wouldn’t agree. Sun Baoqian and Sun Baoshan were her patients. This excuse was very good.
