NovelEnglish375 Second brother, we have to be humble
The next day after they returned to the village, the Gu brothers brought Lu Zheng to explore the wasteland.
There were potatoes planted behind Houyang Valley, and there was a small forest behind the land. On the other side of the forest was a large piece of barren land, full of grass. Because it was surrounded by forests, no one in the village of the three Forks had explored it for years.
Grandma Xiao and grandma Gu also went with them. Grandma Xiao mainly picked herbs, and grandma Gu was strong enough to help with the exploration.

“A ‘Yuan, I estimate that there are at least three thousand Jin of potatoes in second brother’s Houyang Valley! With nearly three hundred catties of seeds, one mu could be planted with ten mu of land. Ah Yuan, why don’t you sell some of the remaining ten mu to our family? Everyone in our family loves to eat that stuff.” Uncle Gu told Lu Zheng about the potatoes when he was taking a break.
“Deal, I’ll give eldest uncle a hundred Jin of seeds! I’ll give 2nd uncle 100 Jin as well.” Lu Zheng agreed readily.
In any case, he still had to plant two or three more crops, and when he transported them to the capital, the Emperor would definitely not find it too little.
“Then it’s a deal! Ah Yuan! You’re really the young man I like the most! Really, I want to matchmake you. But I know that I can’t recognize other girls! I can’t bear to part with my family’s daughter. If you weren’t so handsome, I would have considered introducing my Gu family’s daughter to you.” Uncle Gu sighed, feeling that it was a pity.
“Big brother, why don’t you introduce us to the girls if ah Yuan is so handsome?” Fourth uncle Gu asked in confusion.
“What else could it be? This man was so handsome that he was likable! Look at third Sister’s sister-in-law, her eyes are all on ah Yuan. For our family’s girl, it’s fine to find a man with above average looks and a good family background like me! Don’t you agree, second brother?” Uncle Gu said without hesitation, and then asked for Gu shouxin’s approval.
“Big brother, in my heart, your looks aren’t just above average, you have to remove the” average “part!” Gu shouxin said as he pulled out the grass.
“Doesn’t it mean that it’s slightly above average if we remove the middle?” Uncle Gu mumbled to himself before he said happily, ” hahaha, second brother, don’t say it out loud! Don’t you scholars always say that you can’t be proud? I’m not proud!”
Fourth uncle Gu,”Yingluo”

Lu Zheng,”uncle, don’t scare me. Introduce me!” I want your family’s third miss.
Uncle Gu was only happy for a short while before he frowned and sighed, ” “Sigh, since ancient times, beautiful women with wild beasts, fresh flowers with cow dung, handsome men with fat women! That’s why, ah Yuan, you should work hard and practice your strength. I can see that you’re also worthy of the life of a fat woman. Look at that Guo Wan, how big she is! Train your strength, so that you won’t have a hard time carrying someone like my wife in the future.”
Fourth uncle Gu shouxin&,”is there anyone who talks about their own wife like this?”
“Uncle, I’m not handsome. I’m really ugly,” Lu Zheng replied.
Uncle Gu patted Lu Zheng’s shoulder and encouraged him, ” “When I was young, I also felt that I was very ugly and that I was a good match for my wife. I didn’t expect that when I gave birth to my second child, I would realize that I was actually above average. Now that I’m having my fourth child, your second uncle wants me to drop to the middle grade. I can’t be humble even if I want to. You should come to terms with reality!”
