There Are Too Many Girls, Which Greatly Delays My Cultivation Of Immortality.
Chapter 011 Thirteen Beauties
The next morning, Xiaodongping was unusually lively.
Villagers gathered in groups and headed towards Liu Dahong's house.
Those with unmarried daughters naturally wanted to try their luck.
Even those without daughters wanted to join in the excitement.
Early in the morning, Liu Yifei got up, put on her best clothes, and sat in front of the dressing table, letting her mother dress her up.
"Hurry up, we can't fall behind."
Liu Daifeng urged impatiently, rubbing his hands.
Liu Yifei still looked worried.
"Dad, are you sure Young Master Ye said he wants to marry me? You can't deceive your daughter."
She had been through enough setbacks over the years. If she wasn't sure, she really didn't want to join in the excitement anymore.
Liu Daifeng said, "Absolutely, and didn't your brother Qingshan also say that yesterday? Don't you believe it?"
After finishing her makeup, Liu Yifei followed her father out of the house.
As usual, she let her hair down to cover the left side of her face.
When they arrived in front of Liu Dahong's house, many people had already gathered in the courtyard. Almost half of the village had come.
A few five or six-year-old children were playing and frolicking in the crowd.
When they saw Liu Yifei, they started teasing and calling out.
"Ugly monster, ugly monster!"
Liu Yifei buried her head and tears streamed down her face.
Liu Daifeng pointed at the children angrily, "You little brats, if you keep making a fuss, I'll beat you to death!"
Then he shouted at the crowd, "Whoever has children that are not taught by their mothers, take care of them. If anyone dares to speak or make a fuss today, I, Liu Daifeng, will show no mercy!"
Liu Daifeng was strong and had some assets in his early years, so he still had some influence in the village.
Several women quickly grabbed their children and hid behind the crowd to discipline them.
Liu Daifeng comforted his daughter with a pat on the shoulder.
"Oh, Yifei, you're here too?"
The speaker was a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl, with a tone of disdain.
"What's the matter, Wang Tianzhen? You can come, but your sister can't?"
Liu Daifeng protected his daughter and glared at her.
A middle-aged man laughed, "Big Brother Daifeng, I heard you've spent a lot of money this time, using your house as dowry."
This man was Wang Tianzhen's father, named Wang Zhijun. He had three strong and powerful sons and was a bit domineering.
Yesterday, there was a lot of commotion here when Liu Daifeng made a fuss. The news of him using his house as dowry spread everywhere.
Liu Daifeng sneered, "I only have one daughter. If I don't use the house as dowry, should I keep it for my old age? If you have the ability, why don't you use a house as dowry? No one is stopping you."
Wang Zhijun said, "I don't have that much wealth. I'm just worried that if you lose all your money like this and your daughter still fails to be chosen, won't it be even more embarrassing?"
Wang Tianzhen smirked, "That's right, Young Master Ye is choosing a wife, not a house. Even if the house is good, what's the use if the person is not attractive?"
Liu Daifeng clenched his fists, about to explode, but Liu Yifei quickly tugged at his sleeve.
Liu Daifeng thought to himself, today is an important day for Young Master Ye to choose a bride, I can't mess it up. He had to forcefully suppress his anger.
Wang Zhijun took his daughter aside and confidently said, "You are recognized as the most beautiful girl in Xiaodongping. Today, this marriage is meant for you."
At this moment, a woman in the crowd poked the man next to her.
"Did you hear that, her father? Just now, Wang Zhijun said that Liu Daifeng is using his house as dowry. Shouldn't we also think of a way?"
The man didn't care and said, "Hmph, with her daughter's face, even if he gave me ten houses, I wouldn't want them."
"That's true. Although our daughters may not be chosen, his family's old girl won't have a chance either, right?"
"No wonder Liu Daifeng is spending so much money. His daughter is already eighteen. If she doesn't succeed this time, we can try again at the matchmaking event next spring."
Liu and her father hid in a corner, trying not to mingle with the crowd, but they still heard discussions from all around.
"Dad, I want to go back!"
Liu Yifei's heart was breaking.
Liu Daifeng stared and said, "These people are just talkative. Why do you care about them? Young Master Ye said he wants to marry you, what are you afraid of? When Young Master Ye chooses you later, let these people open their eyes."
Liu Yifei wiped away her tears and covered her ears with her hands.
...
Inside the house, Ye Qingchen was frightened by the commotion.
I just wanted to choose a wife, why does it feel like a grand village meeting? It's probably more lively than the New Year, right?
"Uncle Wang, isn't this a bit too much?"
Wang Yuanfeng smiled and said, "Young Master Ye is talented, so everyone is enthusiastic like this.
I think most of the people have arrived, shall we begin?"
"Alright." Ye Qingchen nodded.
He looked through the window and saw the crowded courtyard, couldn't help but sigh. This treatment, in his previous life of over five hundred years, was unheard of and unseen.
In fact, he had noticed Liu Yifei earlier and had also sensed the gossip through his divine sense.
At this moment, seeing Liu Yifei hiding in the corner wiping her tears, a wave of bitterness surged in his heart.
"Yifei, you've been wronged!"
Originally, after seeing Liu Yifei, he wanted to directly confirm his choice without going through this process.
But considering the village chief and the matchmaker's busy preparations and notifications, he didn't want to waste their good intentions.
Moreover, in case there were other suitable candidates, he could consider marrying them as well.
The key point was that going through this process actually brought back some feelings of his past life in the entertainment industry.
Wang Yuanfeng walked out of the room and stood on the street, waving to everyone.
The scene immediately quieted down.
Wang Yuanfeng cleared his throat and said loudly,
"Fellow villagers, I won't say much. Just one thing, today Young Master Ye will choose whoever he likes. Regardless of whether he chooses someone or not, no one should have any complaints and shouldn't ruin the harmony!"
After speaking, he gestured to the matchmaker, Aunt Wu.
Aunt Wu smiled and said, "Girls, don't be shy, come over and line up!"
The crowd immediately stirred, and about ten girls walked out one after another, standing in a row in front of the courtyard.
Liu Daifeng pushed Liu Yifei forward, placing her at the end.
The other girls were all around fourteen or fifteen years old, while Liu Yifei was a head taller than them, making her stand out.
"Young Master Ye, it's time, come out!"
Ye Qingchen adjusted his collar and walked out of the house in big strides.
First, he bowed to the villagers.
Then he quickly glanced at the girls, including Liu Yifei, a total of thirteen beauties.
The girls all had flushed faces, looking shy and nervous as they occasionally stole glances, showing a mix of nervousness and anticipation.
Only Liu Yifei kept her head down, wiping her tears.
Ye Qingchen carefully observed and realized that besides Liu Yifei, the others were all still children who hadn't fully developed.
These girls weren't ugly, but they couldn't be described as having a "figure" yet. If they didn't dress up, it would even be difficult to tell if they were boys or girls.
Ye Qingchen had strict requirements for the figure. After all, it involved many issues of happiness and pleasure.
And he was only temporarily staying here, one day his cultivation would improve and he would leave. There were plenty of beauties in the world, no need to bring back a child to raise.
There was no suspense in the selection, so he didn't keep them in suspense. He pointed at Liu Yifei and said,
"I choose her!"
Liu Yifei trembled all over.
Although she had expected this result, when it actually came, it was still so pleasantly surprising.
She looked up and deeply glanced at Ye Qingchen, breaking through years of suppression and grievances, unable to hold back any longer, and burst into tears.
The crowd immediately erupted into a buzzing discussion.
Some were surprised, some puzzled, some disappointed...
"Young Master Ye, you... you can't be deceived by her!"
Wang Tianzhen pointed at Liu Yifei and said unwillingly.
"I haven't been deceived, I know her situation."
Wang Zhijun sneered, "It seems everyone was right, Young Master Ye isn't choosing a wife today, he's clearly just interested in the Liu family's property."
Many villagers expressed their agreement, and the discussion grew louder.
Ye Qingchen smiled faintly, walked solemnly in front of Liu Daifeng, and took out two silver notes from his pocket.
"Uncle Liu, this is two hundred taels of silver, ten taels of which is for buying the property, and the remaining one hundred and ninety taels is my betrothal gift!"
