Chapter 459: Brother Shan is not that ugly, you are exaggerating
Sun Shan was feeling extremely nervous and anxious, even more hesitant than when the results of the college and provincial examinations were announced.
Over there, He Banyun's face turned red as he listened to the He family's conversation anxiously.
Of course it is about the marriage between Sun Shan and He Banyun.
He Shuqiang said cheerfully, "Sister, I'm very happy that you and Brother Shan are getting married. I always say that Brother Shan doesn't mind that you're fat at all. Last time I talked to Brother Shan about you, and he said that those people disliked your fatness. Do you know what Brother Shan said? I asked Brother Shan if he was fat, and he said without hesitation that he was not fat at all."
After hearing this, He Banyun's face turned even redder and his heart started beating faster.
I really want to run up to Sun Shan and ask him if he really doesn't mind being fat.
Is what Big Brother said true?
Fatty hates it most when people say she is fat.
Madam He rolled her eyes at He Shuqiang, tapped his big head and said, "How can you discuss your own sister with a man from another family?"
Really, he only grows in height but not in brains, just like his father.
Is it okay for outsiders to discuss your own daughter casually?
As for those who said that they didn't mind that their daughter was fat, Mrs. He didn't believe it.
Nowadays, men like thin and gentle women. He didn't believe that Sun Shan didn't like them.
But it doesn't matter. My daughter will have a powerful family to back her up when she marries him. Sun Shan is just a small scholar and doesn't have enough power.
He Shuqiang said unconvincedly, "Mother, Shan Ge is not an outsider. Besides, we are not discussing Da Mei specifically. Shan Ge is just wondering why Da Mei suddenly changed her name and asked a few questions."
He Shuqiang considered Sun Shan to be his savior and good brother, and he was completely different from other men outside.
He Shuqiang then said to He Banyun, "Big sister, you have been playing with Shan Ge since you were little, and you know his personality. You two can be considered childhood sweethearts.
I introduced him to you because I think he is honest, upright and brave.
Although Shan Ge looks dull and not handsome, for a man, good looks are useless. The most important thing is to be reliable.
Brother Shan is very reliable and never slacks off in his work.
When I fell into the lotus pond, the young Shan Ge was brave and resourceful and tried every way to save me. He was almost exhausted, but he still didn't let go and saved me.
Big sister, a person’s character can be seen from his childhood. Brother Shan has been reliable since he was young. If you marry him, he will definitely be your support in the future.”
After hearing this, He Banyun's face turned redder and redder, and he lowered his head, revealing his ears that were red enough to bleed.
Old Master He San smiled and said, "Brother Qiang is right. Although Sun Shan is not good-looking, his character is impeccable.
Unlike other guys who like to brag, he is serious and upright in his work and has a good character.
The Sun family is all good people. He Er, that kid, was able to marry Aunt Sun Shan and give birth to a child who was ranked second in the imperial examination. He must have been very lucky in his previous life.
I think the Sun family are all smart.
The most important thing is that Sun Shan is a very lucky kid. He passed the college entrance examination and the provincial examination. Maybe he will pass the metropolitan examination next year as well.
In one's life, it's not only about strength, but also about luck. After Yun Jieer marries him, she will also be blessed with good luck and live a safe and smooth life."
When He Shuqiang heard his grandfather praising Sun Shan like that, he felt honored and laughed happily.
Yun Jie'er's father He Lixi disagreed and said, "Father, I don't understand why you listened to Brother Qiang'er's suggestion and let our family marry into the Sun family. Sun Shan is a poor boy, just a juren, how can he be worthy of our Yun Jie."
Although He Lixi has not proposed marriage to Yun Jie'er, he has no objection to Sun Shan and is also happy for He Shuqiang to date Sun Shan.
After proposing to Yun Jie'er, He Lixi began to dislike Sun Shan.
She felt that her own sister was good in every way and that Sun Shan was not worthy of her daughter.
He is short, thin and dark. I heard that he was a premature baby and is weak and sickly.
Although he looks no different from ordinary people now, He Lixi doesn't like it this way.
Before Old Master He San could say anything, Yun Jie'er's mother, Chen, gave He Lixi an unpleasant look.
He replied, "Master, what's wrong with Sun Shan? Isn't being a juren good enough? What do you want? Humph!"
Chen secretly rolled her eyes at He Lixi, thinking that it was shameless for a scholar to speak ill of a juren.
Chen was the opposite of He Lixi. She didn't like Sun Shan, and didn't like his appearance or family background.
But she is a realistic person and can face reality quickly.
I don’t know how many blind dates my sister Yun has gone on, but none of them were successful.
Even those who are at the same level as them look down on Sister Yun, and she cannot force others to look down on her.
Chen was hit hard by the reality and decided to adopt downward compatibility.
I searched and searched, but I was never satisfied with anything I found.
At this time He Shuqiang mentioned Sun Shan.
So Sun Shan entered the He family's sight.
Chen thought about it and felt that Sun Shan had this and that flaws, but his status as a juren was very good.
He is young and promising, so it is not shameful to have him as a son-in-law. Others will only say that they appreciate Sun Shan's talent, and will not say that they are marrying their daughter off randomly.
Besides, it is better to marry down. If her family is strong, Yun Jieer will not be bullied, and she will have a high status in her husband's family, and her life will be more comfortable.
If Sun Shan can pass the imperial examination and become a Jinshi in the future, it will further prove that the He family has vision.
It doesn't matter if he fails the exam. They can use their connections to get Sun Shan a government position. It would be best if Sun Shan works in Guangzhou Prefecture. That way, they will have their daughter by their side and feel more at ease.
Chen had already planned to give Yun Jie'er more dowry so that she could live a better life after marriage.
He Lixi couldn't expect Chen to say this. This was very different from the past.
She clearly disliked Sun Shan, so why did she start speaking for him?
He Lixi said unhappily, "Is it so great to be a juren? There are countless juren in Guangnan, I don't believe that we can't find a young and promising talent. Sun Shan is short and ugly, no matter how you look at it, he is not a good son-in-law."
Chen couldn't help but roll her eyes. Sun Shan was not good-looking, but he, He Lixi, was not much better looking either.
He's a fat guy. If it weren't for his status, she wouldn't have married him.
It was the parents' order and the matchmaker's words, and Chen didn't like He Lixi at first.
It’s just that time has dulled her aesthetic sense. Whether you are fat or thin, as long as everyone can live a good life, that’s enough.
When He Banyun heard He Lixi say this about Sun Shan, he said hurriedly: "Father, Brother Shan is not that ugly, you are going too far."
He Lixi stared at He Banyun in disbelief: "You~~~~you~~~"
He was so angry at his eldest daughter that he had a heart attack. She hadn't even married yet, but she was already speaking for a man from another family.
If I marry him, won’t I even know my father’s last name?
Old Master He San looked at his son and to be honest, apart from having a good father, his son was as good as Sun Shan, or even inferior to Sun Shan.
They are both ugly, so they shouldn't look down on each other.
Old Master He San smiled and said, "Okay, now that we have agreed, we can't go back on our word. We in the He family would never do such a thing if we agreed to the Sun family's proposal and then went back on our word."
Old Master He San completely forgot that it was the He family who first proposed the marriage, and now it was the Sun family who first proposed it.
What a forgetful old man He San is!
