Laidi stole a glance at Li Mei. "His parents are long gone. They used to live in Tongzhou with his uncle. After his uncle passed away, his aunt chased him back to the countryside. His grandmother also came back with him. They didn't have much money, so they built a few straw houses."
He was quite good-looking and talented. Although his parents were no longer around, he had separated from his uncle's family and it was so difficult for him to bring his blind grandmother along. Li Mei did not despise him for being poor. As long as his character was good, it could be considered a good match.
After thinking about it, Li Mei asked, "Since he has an elder around, why didn't he propose? In your heart, is your mother the kind of person who despises the poor and favors the rich? Forget it, why am I still talking about this? If you let him propose, you have to get married before the Imperial Court matches you!"
