Chapter 187 The Matchmaker Visits (1)
At this time, a sound that seemed to be a smile but not a smile suddenly came from outside the courtyard door.

"Brother is back! Brother, dad left a book and ran away!" Gu Xiaobei heard the voice outside the door, as if he had found the backbone, he rushed out, and when he ran to the threshold, he didn't look at his feet, so he tripped over the threshold and went to the door. He was carried on the ground, and was quickly supported by the hands in front of him.

Bai Qiangli looked down at Bai Qiaoer whose eyes were red and swollen from crying in astonishment, frowned and asked, "What did you just say? Say it again, who left the book and left?"

"Daddy left a letter and left, this is the letter he left behind." Bai Qiaoer cried and handed the letter paper to Bai Qingli.

Bai Qingli took the letter and quickly browsed through it, frowning slightly. Unexpectedly, although the old man was relieved by the little monk and was willing to go out, he also decided to travel around, but going out for a walk is not a bad thing. I have been stuck in a dead end for some things and refused to come out. Now I go outside to see how big the outside world is, and I know how small the things I am entangled with are.

"Okay, don't cry, and you don't need to find someone to look for. Since he is determined to leave, we can't stop him. Besides, my father is only going to roam around and he is not a monk. When he wants to come back, he will naturally come back. " Bai Qingli put the letter paper back into Bai Qiaoer's hand, comforting her.

"Will he come back?" Bai Qiaoer sobbed.

"Of course, didn't he say in the letter? He will come back when he wants to." Bai Qingli comforted Bai Qiaoer patiently.

Bai Qingli comforted her for a long time before Bai Qiaoer accepted the fact. Remembering that someone at home was still busy looking for Bai Kuotian, she hurriedly said to Bai Qingli: "Brother, then I'll go back and tell Aunt Liao and the others to stop looking."

"Okay, you go back first, brother still has something to do." Bai Qingli nodded.

Bai Qiaoer hurriedly walked home.

Then Bai Qingli smiled and said to Gu Datian who was standing by the door: "Brother Datian, has the doctor visited? Is Xiaobei better?"

"Miss Tu came to see it, and she said it's nothing serious, just take a few medicines and take a good rest." Gu Datian said with a smile.

Bai Qingli nodded and said with a smile, "Then I'll go in and see her."

"Okay, come in quickly, she just took the medicine, I don't know if she fell asleep." Gu Datian immediately invited Bai Qingli in.

"That carriage seems to be heading towards our house." As soon as Bai Qingli walked to the door, Gu Changjue suddenly pointed to the road ahead.

Gu Datian and Bai Qingli immediately stopped and turned around to look, just in time to see a carriage running towards Gu's house, and they arrived in front of Gu's house in a short while. As soon as the carriage stopped, a middle-aged woman dressed in fancy clothes came down from the carriage behind. people.

"Excuse me, is this the second room of the Gu family?" The woman looked a little dizzy just as she got out of the car, and walked around before walking up to the crowd and asking.

"Exactly, may I ask who are you?" Gu Datian and Gu Changjue just suddenly saw someone approaching their door, and they were still strangers, so they felt very strange.

"I'm Zhang's matchmaker in the city. Where are you headed?" The matchmaker who claimed to be surnamed Zhang immediately said with a smile on her face. Not surprisingly.

Hearing this, Bai Qingli frowned. If he remembered correctly, Gu Datian and Mu Caixia hired a different matchmaker, so what happened to the matchmaker?Who is it to propose marriage to?Generally, the man asks the matchmaker to propose marriage, so the possibility of proposing marriage for Gu Erye and Gu Sanlin is relatively small. Could it be that they are here to match Gu Xiaobei?
Gu Datian was very surprised when he heard the woman say that she was a matchmaker. He met Gu Changjue's eyes, stepped forward, and said seriously, "I'm the head of the house. I don't know why Zhang Matchmaker came to my house?"

"You are the head of the family? Where are your parents?" Zhang Matchmaker looked skeptical. This young man doesn't look like he is 20 years old. How could he be the head of the family?Could it be that he lied to her?

"Aren't you a matchmaker? Why didn't you find out the situation of the family and came to the door?" Before Gu Datian had time to speak, Bai Qingli sarcastically said with a sullen face beside him.

"Look at what you said, my matchmaker Zhang has been a matchmaker for decades, and I naturally know that I have to find out before I come to propose marriage, but this time is an exception." When Zhang Matchmaker saw someone questioning her, she immediately became angry and spoke. It was also much louder, even Gu Xiaobei who had just walked out of the room could hear it from a distance.

Gu Xiaobei pulled Xiaobao's wooden cart, and sat with Xiaobao in the middle of the yard, facing the gate to watch the situation outside.

Just as Bai Qingli was about to speak, Gu Datian stopped him with his hand. He felt angry, and when he looked up, he saw Gu Xiaobei sitting in the yard, and immediately stared at Gu Xiaobei sadly.

Gu Xiaobei was stared at inexplicably, this guy won't go crazy again, right?Although she knew that in ancient times there was a habit of asking matchmakers to propose marriage, but she didn't know that it was generally the habit of men to propose marriage to women, so she couldn't understand why Bai Qingli glared at her as soon as he came back.Gu Xiaobei also stared at him twice, ignored him, and looked at the matchmaker again, wondering if the matchmaker came to their house to propose marriage?Did you propose marriage to the second and third brothers?

"My father went to look for it, and my mother is not here. There are only four siblings left in the family, and I am the eldest brother in the family. If you have anything to do, just tell me." Gu Datian explained carefully.

Matchmaker Zhang immediately shook her head: "That's not okay, how can you decide on the marriage of your children? Do you have other elders in your family? Parents are not here, grandparents are always there, right? Call them, and I will talk to them." .”

Hearing matchmaker Zhang mention the person in the big house, Gu Datian's complexion changed immediately, and he said coldly to matchmaker Zhang: "My family matters are decided by our brothers and sisters. If you think it's inappropriate, please leave."

"Is it all right as long as you are an elder? Uncle, can you?" Gu Xiaobei suddenly raised his voice. Although the second brother said that he didn't want to get married so soon, Gu Xiaobei still felt that the second brother was not too young. It's not good to go down, all the women from good families have been fixed, now if a matchmaker comes to the door, let's take a look first, and let's talk about when you want to be in-laws with them.

Matchmaker Zhang frowned, looked at everyone, and finally nodded and said: "Uncle is also possible."

"It's always bad for us big guys to stand here and talk, please come in first, Matchmaker Zhang." Seeing this, Gu Changjue immediately smiled.

"Okay." Then Matchmaker Zhang showed a sincere smile, and followed Gu Changjue and Gu Datian into the yard. When she walked into the yard, she saw Gu Xiaobei, and immediately stopped to look at Gu Xiaobei carefully. Seeing that Gu Xiaobei's face was pale , and asked: "Is this little girl from your family? Is she sick?"

"It's the only little sister in my family who just got sick." Gu Datian immediately said to Gu Xiaobei after speaking: "Didn't I tell you to lie down and rest? Why did you come out?"
