Ms. Fang and the others remained silent, processing Ms. Yangs words. Without the final sentence, Ms. Yangs remarks seemed acceptable. However, the last comment struck a nerve.
Qi smiled reassuringly. “Don’t worry, we’ll support each other.”
“Good, that’s good!”
Ding Jiazhu and Ms. Yang continued to nag for a while longer before departing with gloomy expressions.
Ding Jinshan was still unmarried, which concerned Ms. Yang. She relentlessly searched for potential suitors for her son, hoping to secure a marriage and secure a bloodline in case Ding Jinshan faced an untimely demise.
However, no respectable families were willing to accept them as in-laws in the current circumstances, unless they were previously engaged and had to expedite the wedding.
Ultimately, they had to spend a considerable amount of money to arrange a wedding with a modest girl during the New Year festivities.
As for the first branch of the Shao Family, fewer suitors approached them for marriage alliances, and the overall quality of prospects was significantly lower.
Prominent families were reluctant to marry off their daughters at this time, regardless of the Shao Family’s standing. However, impoverished families saw it as a golden opportunity to secure a marriage.
Previously, they had never considered the Shao Family, deeming them too prestigious. But the situation had changed. Shao Xiaoqi would soon be joining the army, with uncertainty regarding his return from the battlefield.
Consequently, respectable families were unwilling to form a marital union, leaving an opening for families of lesser standing.
The Shao Family grew increasingly anxious to find a suitable bride for Shao Xiaoqi, ensuring the continuation of their bloodline.
Nis. Fang was infuriated.
She became so angry that she forcefully expelled the matchmaker who had brought a gambler’s daughter as a potential bride for Qi. Ms. Fang snapped, declaring that Qi was not getting married and that they had not been consulted about the matter.
Her outburst was seen as irrational by some Elderly Men from the clan. They suggested that if something were to happen to Qi, at least he could have a child to carry on the family line.
Ms. Fang felt a pang in her heart, but Eldest Uncle found the suggestion reasonable. He added his own input, which sparked a heated argument with Ms. Fang.
The other family members intervened to stop the fight, and Qi himself expressed that he did not feel the need to get married at the moment. The whole issue was eventually dropped.
However, rumors began circulating about Ms. Fang. Some even claimed that she was possessed and intentionally mistreated her youngest son.
Qi paid no attention to the rumors. He remained happy and content, spending most of his time hunting in the mountains. This allowed him to hone his archery skills and physical prowess.
Occasionally, family members like Qiao Xuan would accompany him to gather resources from the mountains, but Qi often ventured alone.
Qi even extended an invitation to Ding Jinshan to join him for practice. He offered to teach him archery and share some valuable tips, although he kept the teachings from his master to himself.
However, Ding Jinshan showed no interest in going, and his parents forbade him from doing so.
“It’s too cold in the mountains, and there are wild animals too! It’s too dangerous,” his parents protested.
“What’s the point of practicing now? You have plenty of time to train in the military camp. It’s better to rest at home,” they insisted..
