Chapter 518 Urging marriage

"I didn't mean to imply anything against you, I just thought the road was difficult to walk on, and I could carry you back faster," Qin Jingchu said.

He didn't really think his fifth uncle was old, but rather that his fifth uncle had always been pampered and couldn't possibly walk that far, especially since they had just walked through every corner of the entire house.

Qin Jingchu had been maintaining his physical fitness in the army and was in good shape, so he didn't feel tired. However, he noticed that his fifth uncle's breathing was heavy. If he walked back, he was afraid that his legs and feet would hurt when he woke up the next morning.

“No need to go back so early. My nephew and I haven’t seen each other for a while. We can chat as we walk.” Xu Huaici said with a kind smile.

His third brother died early, and his mother was practically nonexistent. Now he's all grown up, and even his sister is married, but he's still single. As an elder, he naturally has to worry about him.

According to him, his nephew is good-looking and has a good character, so he shouldn't lack partners. Logically, he shouldn't be single, but he is still a bachelor.

"Jingchu, did everything go smoothly for you and Wangshu when you returned to Yangjia Village this time?"

"Everything is fine. The people there are kind and simple. Wang Shu lived there for quite a long time, so she was very comfortable going back this time." Of course, Wang Shu helped the people there improve their lives and made a lot of money, so they were naturally very hospitable to her.

"Anyway, Wang Shu and the others will continue to live in Beijing and won't be going back to live there in the future. They also don't need to visit their relatives there much." He had met people from that area before and naturally knew Wang Shu's standing in their hearts.

"But when are you, as the older brother, planning to bring a sister-in-law home for Wangshu?"

"I'm not in a hurry." Qin Jingchu shook his head, no matter who said it, he would say the same thing.

"There's no rush. You're almost thirty now, aren't you?"

"Fifth Uncle, I'm only twenty-eight," Qin Jingchu said helplessly. He really hadn't expected his fifth uncle to be urging him to get married.

"Yeah, you're already twenty-eight, almost thirty. If you don't find someone soon, you'll be an old bachelor!"

Qin Jingchu could only change the subject, not wanting to hear Xu Huaici bring it up again. He didn't want to consider marriage yet, nor did he want anyone to enter his life.

Seeing that Qin Jingchu didn't want to talk about it, Xu Huaici took the opportunity to change the subject.

When they returned to the guesthouse, Xu Huaici's personal assistant greeted them and handed him a glass of water at a comfortable temperature. The assistant also had another glass of water, which he tried to give to Qin Jingchu, but Qin refused.

"Fifth Uncle, you go back and rest first. I'll go back to my room and pack my things too."

"Go, go!" Xu Huaici waved his hand.

Watching Qin Jingchu's tall and straight back as he went upstairs, Xu Huaici sighed. He had always been abroad and associated with foreign families, so even if there were girls of suitable age, it wouldn't be appropriate to introduce them to him.

As for the old family friends in China, they are almost all gone now. Besides, given his third brother's experience, he can no longer arrange a marriage for Qin Jingchu.

Now we can only hope that Wang Shu can persuade his brother to find a partner soon.

Back in his room, Qin Jingchu took off his coat and took out some clothes from his luggage to take a shower.

He had traveled a long and tiring journey, and upon arrival, he went straight to the old house without resting. Although he was physically fit and didn't feel tired, he still felt uncomfortable and wanted to take a good shower and change his clothes.
