Madam Zhou understood his meaning. Seeing how much he respected her daughter, she was even more satisfied. She nodded and smiled, "Young man, you should also discuss important and trivial matters with Wan'er more often in the future."

“That’s natural,” Zhao Huai assured him.

The clan chief's wife also smiled, "That's how life should be. If everything is discussed and agreed upon, life will be prosperous and thriving."

Zhao Huai chuckled, "Please excuse my poor appearance."

The clan chief's wife unfolded a piece of red paper in her hand. "These are some auspicious days that I asked the abbot of Anyuan Temple about. It's January now, so it's not advisable to leave home in February. March and May will also have good days. Please take a look, Tiankuang's mother."

Zhou then asked Zhao Huai, "Did you just ask the eldest maid what day it was?"

Zhao Huai said, quite embarrassed, "I...I've recently saved up a lot of money and was thinking of getting married as soon as possible, so I asked her if we could set the wedding date for March?"

March is the closest time to come, and he felt embarrassed, fearing that Tian Kuangniang would think he was too impatient.

Ahem, although he was indeed very anxious...

Thinking of Aunt Hua from earlier, Zhou felt a surge of disgust. She thought to herself that it would be a good thing for the children to get married sooner, so she nodded and said, "Since Wan'er herself has no objections, then let's set it for March. After January, I will have someone demolish the house in the back."

...

Aunt Hua, covering her swollen face, walked towards home. From afar, she saw several little ones following behind Xiao Youran. She immediately took a few steps forward angrily and stretched out her big hand to hit Xiao Youran's face.

Xiao Youran was startled and used the ethereal footwork she had recently learned to nimbly dodge to the side.

"I refuse to believe I can't catch you!" Aunt Hua lunged at Xiao Youran again.

How could Xiao Youran be caught by her? She dodged and weaved through the crowd in a few quick movements.

Upon seeing this, Stone and Little Mountain stepped forward to grab Aunt Hua, shouting, "Why are you hitting our gang leader, you old woman?"

"You bastard leader!" Aunt Hua lunged at Xiao Youran again, her face contorted with rage. "You little jinx! You jinx! Ever since you came to our village, nothing good has ever happened to me!"

Xiao Youran was already far away when she picked up a stone from the ground and threw it at Aunt Hua's feet.

Her skill in throwing stones was both accurate and ruthless; with a "thud," Aunt Hua was thrown directly to the ground.

Xiao Youran hugged the little box tightly in her arms, and the little brat waved his hand, "Go on, don't pay attention to her."

Aunt Hua sat on the ground and burst into tears, "You jinx..."

Xiao You Ran was so angry she laughed.

On a whim, he opened his notebook and searched for a long time before finally finding the page about Aunt Hua.

Several unfortunate events were already shown on it, all of which she knew about.

For example, she fell into the water and was rescued by a lame man.

The cripple forced her to marry.

My son was gored by a wild boar.

Two of his molars were knocked out.

There were only four things, but it showed that her luck value had been reduced by six points.

So there are two more things she doesn't know.

Based on her past experience, the "resolved" and "unresolved" buttons wouldn't appear until she knew all the bad things that had happened to her.

This page was generated when she set it to automatic detection, and it's still being processed automatically.

If it were anyone else, she might kindly remind them to tell her all their bad luck, just like Manager Yu in the capital back then, so she could manually get rid of the bad luck.

But Aunt Hua was courting death in such a ridiculous way, and she didn't want to remind her.

I don't want to unwind it either.

Anyway, her luck value is currently over 60.

She wanted to see how this woman, who was courting death in so many ways, would end up.

She ran back to the old house and went to her room, where her brother was looking at the fabrics, beaded ornaments, and other items that filled the room, his face showing melancholy.

Because Jiang Youchen saw that all of these were things used by women.

There's absolutely no one he can use!

After greeting her mother and brother, Xiao Youran went straight to her room, found three purple pearls of similar size, put them in a box, and then went to her older sister Yun Manwan's room.

Yun Manyan was happily gesturing with the newly acquired gold and ruby-encrusted hairpin, which she could wear on her wedding day.

Although her family now has the Yun family's cloth shop as income support, so there is no need to worry about the quality of cloth and fabric, she also knows that her mother is currently short of money and cannot give her too much dowry.

This gold hairpin inlaid with rubies might just be her signature piece.

She received this New Year's gift from Young Master Wen, and there was no other reason than the Jiang siblings' influence.

Just then, Xiao Youran ran in, placed a box of red coral beads on the table, and said breathlessly, "Big, big sister!"

Yun Manyan put down the hairpin, amused, and pulled her into a hug, kissing her soft, round face. "Little Youran, what's the matter that you're in such a hurry?"

Xiao Youran was shocked.

Why is this older sister suddenly being so nice to her?

Yun Manyan smiled. "Why aren't you saying anything?"

Little Youran touched the warm, moist spot on her cheek and looked at Yun Manwan in surprise, saying, "Big sister, you...you used to hate me so much..."

Yun Manyan patted her head before sighing, "What should I do? Big sister can't control herself. She's liking Xiao Youran more and more, what should I do?"

Little Youran suddenly hugged her and chuckled, "Yes, Little Youran likes big sister too!"

Yun Manyan then looked at the box she had brought and asked, "What did you bring?"

Xiao Youran pushed the box over, "Big sister, open it and take a look."

Yun Manyan slowly opened the box and was stunned to see it was full of red coral beads.

"This is……?"

Xiao Youran smiled and said, "Big sister, I accidentally threw away your pearl shoes before, so consider these pearls as compensation!"

Yun Manyan was stunned again, followed by bitterness.

This box of red coral beads is neither too big nor too small. In the past, I would never have paid any attention to it.

But what is the family's current situation? The only person who can so easily take out this box of red coral beads and casually refer to hundreds of beads as "just a few beads" is Xiao Youran, the granddaughter of the richest man in the Su family.

Xiao Youran quickly said, "Big sister, I didn't mean anything by it. It's just... this box of red coral beads was also a gift from Senior Brother Da Bai. Second sister wanted me to share half with her. I thought she wouldn't have any use for it, so I thought it would be better to give it to you as a dowry. However... when Senior Brother Da Bai brought it, there were 360 ​​beads, but they were accidentally knocked over, and three were lost. These three are purple..." She picked out three purple pearls and held them in her palm, saying to her big sister, "These are the only three I'm going to give to you as compensation. The rest are just borrowed gifts."

Yun Manyan then realized that she had misunderstood Xiao Youran, and quickly pushed the box back, "This is a gift from your senior brother to you, how can you give it to me? You have to compensate me for my pearl shoes, I'll gladly accept these three pearls."

After saying that, she took back the three purple pearls from Xiaoyouran's palm.
