Patriarch Zhang smiled and said, “There are many young men nearby. Why did you set your eyes on Little Cat?”

“Little Cat treats our daughter well now. He definitely won’t let our Tiantian suffer in the future. Besides, didn’t you say that if we have a daughter, we should settle this marriage?”

Patriarch Zhang was amused. “Tiantian is three years older than him!”

Madam Zhang glared at him. “What three years old? It’s two and a half years old. Besides, a woman older by three years is a golden brick. How is she not suitable?”

Patriarch Zhang smiled and said, “That depends on whether the two of them are in love, right?”

Madam Zhang thought for a moment. “I’ll just ask tomorrow. If Tiantian doesn’t object, I’ll ask Little Cat’s mother’s thoughts.”

Patriarch Zhang hesitated. “Little Cat is still a child. Isn’t it a little early to get engaged?”

“What early? They are childhood sweethearts. Didn’t we go through the same thing?”

Master Zhang recalled that Madam Zhang had followed behind him like a stalker when she was young. He chuckled and replied gently, “Okay.”

The next day, Madam Zhang came to Zhang Tiantian’s room.

Zhang Tiantian was still sleeping in when Madam Zhang woke her up.

She yawned and asked sleepily, “Mother, I am not going to school today. Why are you here so early?”

Madam Zhang held her hand. “I have something to discuss with you.”

Why did she have to come so early in the morning and look so serious?

Zhang Tiantian’s sleepiness was dispelled by curiosity. She p.r.i.c.ked up her ears. “What is it?”

Madam Zhang said naturally, “You’ll have to get married in a few years.”

Zhang Tiantian almost drowned herself in her saliva. She said helplessly, “Mother, you know there are still a few years. You even woke me up early in the morning to talk about this.”

Madam Zhang tugged at her ear. “Good marriages are all arranged in advance. It’ll be too late by the time you remember to pick one.”

Zhang Tiantian covered her ears and admitted defeat. “Please continue.”

Madam Zhang smiled. “I originally wanted to set you up with Cui Muzhi. Unexpectedly, Madam Cui avoided talking about it. You and the Cui family’s boy are both jumpy. He’s a little more mature now, but he seems to be hiding something. If there’s someone who you like, I definitely won’t let you suffer. How about Little Cat?”

Cui Muzhi was handsome and carefree. He also knew how to make all kinds of delicious snacks. His appearance when focused at work was mesmerizing. Which girl wouldn’t fall in love? Zhang Tiantian was disappointed for a moment when she heard that he had someone he liked. Then, she heard that her mother had taken a fancy to Little Cat, who was even younger than her. She was immediately shocked. “What?”

Madam Zhang gestured for her to calm down. “Isn’t Little Cat good to you? He worked hard to develop a blueprint that can be sold for countless taels of silver and specially gave it to you for free. There’s nothing wrong with his character. I think Little Cat is not bad. What do you think?”

Zhang Tiantian blushed and thought of Little Cat’s lonely back. She whispered, “But I’m older than him! Will I be laughed at?”

Apart from often pulling a long face, Little Cat was indeed quite good to her. It didn’t seem bad for him to keep treating her like this. It was just that he was a little small, tanned, and thin, but he looked alright…

Seeing her daughter’s expression, Madam Zhang could tell that she did not dislike Little Cat. She chuckled and said, “What would they laugh about? A woman three years older is a golden brick and can be raise well. It’s a blessing that others can’t even ask for! If you think it’s okay, Mother will go and ask around?”

Zhang Tiantian stammered, “Then what if he doesn’t grow tall? I don’t like anyone shorter than me.”

Little Cat was still half a head shorter than her.

Madam Zhang was overjoyed. “Boys develop later, he will grow taller. The Great Empress advocates drinking more milk to strengthen one’s body. When the two of you are engaged, you can deliver milk to him every day.”

Zhang Tiantian blushed. “How can I give it to him every day?” Occasionally, she would just give him.

“Why not? Your mother used to follow behind your father every day to ask for candy.”

Zhang Tiantian snorted and couldn’t help but think of how Little Cat would look when he found out that they were engaged.

He would probably still be cool and disdainful, but secretly ecstatic, right?

After Madam Zhang settled Zhang Tiantian, she thought about how to talk to Tao Yinzhen. After all, Little Cat’s father had just pa.s.sed away not long ago. Although she would only ask a few questions first and get engaged after some time, she still had to consider the other party’s feelings.

Madam Zhang looked at the almanac. The mid autumn festival was coming soon, so she customized some exquisite mooncakes, took out the aged wine at home, and personally visited.

Tao Yinzhen opened the door and was surprised for a moment. She hurriedly invited Madam Zhang in.

Tao Yinzhen no longer had any thoughts towards Chu Tianbao, and she returned to normal. Madam Zhang was very satisfied with their conversation.

She was neither unscrupulous nor rude.

Madam Zhang beat around the bush and asked Tao Yinzhen about her thoughts of her future daughter-in-law.

Tao Yinzhen sighed. “He has his own mind and can decide for himself. I don’t have to worry about him yet.”

When Madam Zhang heard this, it was even better. In any case, Little Cat was interested in their Tiantian, so she took the opportunity to propose the marriage between the two families.

Tao Yinzhen was stunned. She never expected Madam Zhang to take a fancy to their Little Cat.

After all, a starving camel is still bigger than a horse. Their family was still far inferior to the Zhang family of Qinghe.

Madam Zhang smiled brightly.

Tao Yinzhen took a sip of tea to calm down. After a long time, she said, “Madam Zhang, can you allow me some time to think?”

She really couldn’t decide on behalf of Little Cat now, although she really wanted to agree to the marriage.

Madam Zhang nodded. “Then sorry for bothering you today.”

“I’ll send Madam Zhang off.”

After Madam Zhang left, Tao Yinzhen drank two more cups of tea before Little Cat returned.

Seeing that Tao Yinzhen had yet to cook, he put down his bag and went to wash his hands to cook.

When Tao Yinzhen heard the sound of cooking coming from the kitchen, she came back to her senses.

Little Cat packed a plate of green cabbage and glanced at Tao Yinzhen, who wanted to say something but hesitated. “It’s almost time to eat.”

Tao Yinzhen said apologetically, “Mother was just about to stir-fry when Madam Zhang suddenly came.”

Little Cat looked up in surprise. “What are they doing here?”

Tao Yinzhen was silent for a moment. “Madam Zhang wants to set an engagement with our family.”

The egg in Little Cat’s hand slipped and fell to the ground, as if he had heard wrongly.

Tao Yinzhen hurriedly picked up the broken eggs. Little Cat frowned and asked, “With who?”

Apart from the direct descendants, the Zhang family also had four to five branches.

“Patriarch Zhang’s only eldest daughter, Zhang Tiantian.”

Little Cat paused. Tao Yinzhen wiped the floor and stood up. “Mother didn’t agree to it yet. If you’re unwilling, Mother won’t interfere.”

Little Cat’s eyes were filled with complicated emotions. He did not respond to Tao Yinzhen for a long time. “Let’s eat first.”

Tao Yinzhen and Little Cat ate dinner in silence. Then, Little Cat went straight to wash the dishes. Tao Yinzhen glanced at him and knew that she probably wouldn’t get an answer that day.

The next day, for the first time, Little Cat took the initiative to block Zhang

Tiantian’s way. He said simply, “I have something to ask you..”
