Tian Xiao'e couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Xiang Nan's family didn't have any pretensions and were quite amiable.

She was originally worried that she might suffer some inhuman abuse after arriving at Bailuyuan.

After all, Xiang Nan said that she was the reincarnation of a vixen. And in folk stories, vixens never end well.

Therefore, she was afraid that she would be insulted, beaten, and imprisoned by Xiang Nan, so she was worried all the way.

Now that she saw that they didn't dislike her at all and even let her eat at the same table, her fear was naturally reduced a lot.

After finishing the meal, Tian Xiao'e washed the pots and dishes.

Later, Xiang Nan took her to an empty room and said, "This will be your room from now on. The pillows, quilts, mattresses, and even the toilet are all new.

You can make do with it for one night today, and I'll have someone help you get a briquette stove tomorrow. This way you'll be warmer when you sleep at night."

"No, that's good." Tian Xiao'e waved her hands quickly.

To be honest, her treatment was far beyond her imagination.

"You're welcome, from now on we are all a family, living under the same roof, and should take care of each other," Xiang Nan said.

Hearing what he said, Tian Xiao'e was stunned and felt a warm current rushing into her heart.

Ever since she was little, no one has been so kind to her, and she couldn't help but be moved.

…

As expected, Xiang Nan asked a craftsman to help Tian Xiaoe make a briquette stove so that it would not be too cold to sleep at night.

This was Tian Xiao'e's first time seeing a briquette stove, and she couldn't help but feel it was particularly novel.

At the same time, Lu San also invited a matchmaker to help his son find a good girl.

"Third brother, your son is a god and he still wants to marry a wife?" the matchmaker asked in surprise.

"What are you talking about? My son is a Taoist and not a monk. Why can't he get a wife?" Lu San glared.

"Yes, yes, yes, I said something wrong." The matchmaker waved her hands quickly. She couldn't tell the difference between Taoism, Buddhism and Immortality. "Does the little fairy have any requirements?"

"My son said that regardless of family background, the most important thing is that a person should be good-looking." Lu San said.

"That's easy. There aren't enough good-looking girls. As long as the little fairy opens her mouth, many people will be willing to marry her." The matchmaker said with a smile.

Lu San nodded, handed over a red envelope and said, "Then please pay more attention, and I will thank you again after everything is done."

"Don't worry, I'll take care of everything." The matchmaker said happily.

…

Afterwards, Xiang Nan's story about his daughter-in-law spread throughout a hundred miles radius.

When families with girls of the same age heard about this, they were all eager to get married to Xiang Nan.

First of all, the little gods are gods, who can soar into the clouds and mist, call for wind and rain, hang pots to help the world, and predict the future. If you become a relative with such a person, once the little gods become enlightened in the future, won't they also be able to follow the chickens and dogs to ascend to heaven?

Secondly, even if the little fairy is not a god, he still has a small family fortune and is considered one of the first-class wealthy households in Zishui County. Moreover, even the county magistrate is his friend.

Even if such a person with wealth, status and ability is not a god, there are still many people who want to marry him.

So for a while, the matchmaker almost broke through the door of Xiang Nan's house.

Xiang Nan was dazzled by this. One day, at least ten families came to the temple to be screened by him under the guise of burning incense and worshiping gods.

In fact, other people say that distant relatives do not receive this kind of treatment.

It seems that Mr. Leng told Lu Zhaopeng and Bai Xiaowu about his two daughters, Leng Qiuyue and Leng Qiushui.

They didn't even meet before they got married.

Bai Xiaowu wanted to see what Leng Qiushui looked like, so he had to lean over the wall and take a peek, and he was afraid of being seen.

Bai Jiaxuan married a wife of seven wives. Except for Xiancao, he didn't see the appearance of the other six people before they entered the house.

Therefore, there are not many people in Manzishui County who can choose a wife like Xiang Nan.

…

After some selection, Xiang Nan finally chose Zhang Ziqing, the second daughter of a family named Zhang in Zishui County.

This girl is just sixteen years old this year. She is as lithe as a flower. She is also very beautiful, and her eyebrows are 90% similar to those of the female star Dong Jie.

So Xiang Nan fell in love with her at first sight and settled on her.

The Zhang family is engaged in business in the county town, and the Xiangyun Hao Cloth Store is his family's business. They have been doing this since the older generation, and have been open for nearly a hundred years.

Therefore, his family is well off, and he is considered to be an above-average family in the county.

Xiang Nan also secretly inquired and found out that the Zhang family's family tradition was quite good. There were no men who committed crimes in the third generation, and there were no remarried daughters in the fifth generation. The business was fair, and the neighbors spoke highly of his family.

Therefore, the marriage was decided, and it was agreed that the marriage would be officially completed in December this year.

The Zhang family originally wanted to marry off their daughter as soon as possible, but Zhang Ziqing also has an older sister, Zhang Zijun, who is 18 years old and is already betrothed to someone else. The wedding is scheduled for August.

Zhang Ziqing is the second oldest child and cannot get married earlier than her elder sister, so she decided to get married in December.

Getting married at the age of sixteen was not uncommon in the Republic of China.

Bai Jiaxuan, Bai Xiaowen, and Bai Xiaowu all got married at the age of sixteen.

Because at that time, marrying a daughter-in-law was considered as a way to add a new labor force to the family.

After the daughter-in-law enters the house, she has to spin and weave, clean the yard, wash and cook, and have children... Therefore, the sooner she gets married, the better. This is why there was such a thing as child bride in ancient times.

Moreover, daughters-in-law are usually older than men, which is beneficial to childbirth and work.

Bai Jiaxuan's first wife was two years older than him, Bai Xiaowen's first wife was three years older than him, and Bai Xiaowu's wife Leng Qiushui was also two years older than him.

As for the bride’s family, they are also willing to marry off their daughter as early as possible.

Firstly, it can be exchanged for a generous betrothal gift; secondly, due to the social atmosphere at that time, a woman who was nineteen years old before getting married was already a neighbor, and the three aunts and six grandmothers thought that no one wanted it.

…

Although Xiang Nan has already made an engagement with the Zhang family, there are still many people who want to marry him.

After all, in the Republic of China, people were worthless and not as valuable as a cow.

Especially women, the money they earn from spinning and weaving at home, and the money they get in exchange for food, is not even enough to feed themselves.

That's why daughters were regarded as "losing money" at that time, because they meant that they could exchange for a betrothal gift when they got married in the future.

Therefore, many people want to send their daughters here.

If you can't become a wife, you can still be a concubine.

If you can't be a concubine, you can still be a maid.

In this way, you can not only make some money, but also save some food rations, which is a very cost-effective thing for many families.

Xiang Nan couldn't help but lament.

A hundred years from now, if a boy wants to marry a wife, he will have to empty six wallets. Who knows that this is not a sin that has been done for thousands of years.

But he did not accept the good intentions of these people.

First of all, he is not a lustful ghost, Zhang Ziqing and Tian Xiao'e are enough. Unlike Lu Zilin, who wants all kinds of fishy and smelly things, making the whole country full of his illegitimate children;

Secondly, having too many women is also troublesome. They will be jealous and scheming. Xiang Nan wants to live a peaceful life, but he doesn’t want to get himself into trouble.

Therefore, he rejected all requests for concubines. However, he still left two girls out of kindness.
