Lou Zheng is Wu Dayou's close relative, and currently, the closest person to him. Therefore, when Lou Zheng came to propose the marriage, the Lin family did not find it too surprising. However, with Lou Zheng and Madame Zhang acting as matchmakers, this marriage would bring honour to the Lin family when word got out.
"Dayou and Changshu have been good brothers for years, and we've watched Zige grow up. Though Dayou's family is somewhat impoverished, Dayou can hunt, and Zige is a capable girl. There's no fear of them not being able to make ends meet in the future," Lou Zheng said, "If this match goes through, I intend for Dayou to reclaim the three acres of rented farmland so that they can cultivate it themselves and have some income."
Lou Zheng's considerations were far-reaching, "Our two families have had a long-standing relationship, so there's no need for empty talk. Master, please, give us a straight answer."
