There is basically no farm work in winter, mostly land reclamation.

This kind of hard work is usually done by the young and middle-aged people in the village. The older women cannot do it, so they just gather together to chat and pass the time.

Therefore, every morning when Su Qingzhu ran to the village entrance with his younger brother, he could see the women in the village standing or sitting in groups of three or five, chatting about their daily lives.

The two children, Su Qingzhu and Su Xiaodi, seemed out of place sitting there, but they miraculously brought vitality to the team. The aunts had a lot of fun chatting every day.

Sitting among them, Su Qingzhu's biggest feeling was - never underestimate the power of the masses.

Over the past few days, she heard a lot of gossip from people in and outside the village.

It’s a bit funny to say that she can’t recognize all the villagers now, but as soon as a name is mentioned, she will remember the gossip corresponding to that person.

It’s true that good news doesn’t travel far, but bad news travels a thousand miles.

Of course, what I heard the most was the stories about Mrs. Su's family that Su Qingzhu had guided me about intentionally or unintentionally.

The "big partners" were very helpful. In just a few days, they revealed all the big and small secrets of Su Po's family.

Regarding Su Xiaodi's "selling sister", it's probably like this:

Su Xiaogu originally wanted to introduce a partner to Su Laidi, Su Da's eldest daughter and Su Po's first grandson.

But Mrs. Su felt that the man was not a good person and could not be given to her eldest granddaughter, so she decided to replace him with Su Siya.

She knew that Su Si Ya would definitely not agree, so she planned to use the method of "making the rice into a fait accompli".

When Grandma Su and Aunt Su were discussing this matter, Su Si Ya heard it all, and the three of them might have had an argument.

However, no one expected that this incident would become the last straw that broke the camel's back for Su Si Ya. The string that she had been holding tight... broke.

Falling into the abyss of despair, she resolutely chose to commit suicide.

**

In order to make friends with relatives, Su Xiaogu, who married into the town, decided to introduce a marriage to Su Laidi.

The target was the nephew of the deputy director of Su Xiaogu's factory. He was a regular employee of the town's machinery factory and received a second-level salary of 35 yuan per month.

He promised that if the marriage was successful, he would give her a dowry of 500 yuan and a bicycle.

When Su Xiaogu explained the basic situation, Su Pozi couldn't help but feel suspicious. With such good conditions and such a high bride price, he still came to the countryside to propose marriage. He must be either a fool or a widower.

So she asked bluntly, "Is that man a fool?"

Su Xiaogu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Of course not."

He is already a second-level worker, how can he be a fool?

Mrs. Su asked again, "Have you found a stepmother for the baby?"

Su Xiaogu rolled her eyes, "Not really."

"Then why doesn't he look for it in town?" Mrs. Su asked for the third time.

A second-level worker doesn't look for a wife in the town, but comes to the countryside. Who would believe him if he says there is nothing wrong with him?

"Uh..." Su Xiaogu hesitated for a moment and then told the truth, "He doesn't have any serious problems. He just has uneven legs, walks with a limp, and has a bad temper."

"The lame man?" Mrs. Su nodded. "That's really hard to find."

Su Xiaogu laughed, "Otherwise, how could you find me?"

Mrs. Su thought for a moment and then asked, "Does he have a bad temper? Does he hit people?"

"Fight...right?" Su Xiaogu was a little uncertain. "It seems like he only fights when he's drunk."

You can only trust three-quarters of what the introducer says. These are all things Su Xiaogu has heard privately. Although they are not comprehensive, they should be close to the actual situation.

After all, she was proposing a marriage to her eldest niece, so she had to be cautious.

However, there are very few men in this town who don't beat their wives, so this point didn't seem very important to Su Xiaogu, so she just listened to the general idea.

"If you want to hit someone, then don't tell Daya, tell Su Siya." Mrs. Su said this without hesitation.

"Ah? But Si Ya is only 16 years old." She is a minor, so they can't get married even if they say so.

He is 28 years old and is in a hurry. He will definitely not be happy to be asked to wait for another two years.

"What's the big deal? I was 15 and I married your father." Mrs. Su was disgusted by her youngest daughter's fuss. "In the countryside, there's no need for such fuss."

Su Xiaogu was hesitant. Everyone knew how much her fifth brother's family and her sister-in-law's family loved Si Ya. Although Si Ya didn't like to tell them about things, what if?

She knew what her mother was thinking. She just wanted to exchange Si Ya for a betrothal gift and a bicycle.

Although she also didn't like this younger brother, but she... had just threatened Si Ya, and what if she pushed Si Ya into a corner and made her tell that thing.

With these two things combined, she would probably be beaten to death by that group of people.

She is living a good life and doesn't want to die.

Besides, it is a new society now. Getting married at the age of 16 is against the regulations, and being reported is no joke.

So Su Xiaogu tried to persuade her mother: "Mom, you are selling Si Ya, and Fifth Brother will not agree."

"Why would I care if he agrees or not?" Whenever Su Wu was mentioned, Mrs. Su would get angry. "When the time comes, he will..."

Before he could finish his words, there was a bang from outside the door.

Su Xiaogu hurriedly opened the door, only to see Su Siya standing outside in a daze, Su Xiaodi sitting on the side picking at the door sill, and the bucket fell on the other side.

Su Si Ya never thought that she would hear such news just when she came back to get a bucket.

She has always known that her grandmother and her family don't like her family, and they dislike her even more. She has always endured beating and scolding her, but why does she still treat her like this?

Originally, the marriage proposal was to be made for Su Lai Di, but because that man hit someone, grandma changed the marriage proposal to her and even used despicable means such as making the matter a fait accompli to force her to submit.

Grandma is hoping she will die!

What did she do wrong? Why are they so intolerant of her? Why are they all trying to force her?
