Springtime Farming: A Happy Wife At Home
Chapter 1749

Chapter 1749: Zhao Shu’s Proposal Chapter 1749: Zhao Shu’s Proposal Editor: Henyee Translations Zhao Shu and his servants took residence in the modest guest room within the eastern courtyard.

Qiao Xuan, upon learning of his arrival, instructed the kitchen to prepare a few extra dishes and extended an invitation for dinner to Zhao Shu.

The family harbored no reservations towards Zhao Shu.

As he was destined to be their future son-in-law, there was no need to entertain suspicions.

Eager to proceed, Zhao Shu, along with his hosts, shared a meal together.

As they sat in the parlor sipping tea, Zhao Shu finally rose, offering a deep bow to Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan, and broached the subject of marrying Taotao to Shao Yunduan.

The air froze.

Shao Yunduan raised his eyebrows.

Qiao Xuan looked at him and then at Zhao Shu, and smiled.

She didn’t say anything.

She knew very well what her husband was thinking.

This matter had been going on for so long.

It was time for an outcome.

Otherwise, it would be unfair to Zhao Shu and Taotao.

It wasn’t that her husband held any disdain for Zhao Shu, but he found it difficult to part with his only sister.

As Qiao Xuan contemplated Shao Yunduan’s silence, on the verge of suggesting a need for further consideration, Shao Yunduan interjected, “Is this how you propose?” Taken aback, Zhao Shu’s nerves kicked in immediately.

“Huh?” he stammered.

“I-I’m very sincere, Brother Shao!

I promise to treat Taotao well, sparing her any grievances.

I’ll ensure her happiness every day!

If not, Brother Shao and Sister-in-law, you can hold me accountable.

I won’t have any complaintsaEUR| Oh, and I won’t take a concubine.

Not even a maid.

I’ll be loyal to TaotaoaEUR|” Shao Yunduan shot him a glance, halting his rambling.

“Elder Brother ShaoaEUR|” Unable to contain herself, Qiao Xuan let out a snicker.

This brother-in-law truly lacked any temper!

Where could she find such a wealthy and easily manageable brother-in-law?

After this instance, such opportunities would be scarce.

Shao Yunduan couldn’t endure it any longer.

“If you want to propose, at least do it properly, right?” “IaEUR|” Zhao Shu remained nervous, his thoughts in disarray.

“S-Brother Shao, whatever you wantaEUR| I’ll do it!” Qiao Xuan, unable to contain herself, burst into laughter.

“Young Master Zhao, find a matchmaker to discuss this with our family.

We lack nothing.

Taotao is our only girl, and we can’t bear to see her suffer!” Shao Yunduan shot his wife a glance, knowing she understood his intentions, unlike Zhao Shu, who seemed oblivious.

Ecstatic, Zhao Shu’s eyes lit up.

“Really?” Feeling a bit foolish, Shao Yunduan threw him a look.

Suppressing her laughter, Qiao Xuan said, “Certainly true.

Remember your promises todayaEUR”treat Taotao well and spare her any suffering!” Zhao Shu’s grin reached from ear to ear.

He nodded vigorously.

“No worries, no worries!

Sister-in-law, Brother Shao, rest assured.

I’ll treat Taotao well, I swear!” “No need to swear.

We’ll judge by your actions.

If you disappoint Taotao, we won’t let you off.

Since you’re genuinely interested, go and formally propose.

Whether she accepts is up to Taotao.” Zhao Shu continued nodding with a wide smile.

“Yes, yes, yes!

Thank you, Brother Shao, Sister-in-law, for making my wish come true, hehe!”
