Chapter 269: Empty, Lonely, and Cold?! No, No, No...

She just laughed and said, "Doctor Jiang said that the standard for getting married cannot be low. After all, Doctor Jiang is such an outstanding and capable person. If you think about it carefully, it makes sense.

However, I came here today to recommend a live-in son-in-law to Dr. Jiang. I guess live-in sons-in-law don't have such high standards. I have a pretty good candidate, but his family is a little poor and he can't afford to marry a wife. He is also very handsome..."

Jiang Lianzhu narrowed her eyes and interrupted her, "Is he a local who knows everything about her?"

Mrs. Mei said, "He's a stranger who plans to move here. He's been treated by Doctor Jiang before and has great respect for him."

Jiang Lianzhu said directly, "Outsiders don't need to consider it. Also, the standards I use for recruiting live-in sons-in-law are the same as those for marrying off. There are no different standards. If you want to come to my house to propose marriage, you should first weigh your own weight. Today is the first time, I won't pursue it. If you do it again next time, our door will be easy to enter but difficult to leave. I can only let the dogs bite you."

Mrs. Mei was angry.

Such a woman has an air of being difficult to mess with. Her playful eyes and harsh conditions are obviously meant to tease her and reject her.

Fortunately, she has been a matchmaker for so many years and has seen all kinds of people.

In an ordinary place, she would have lost her temper, scolded him a few words and walked away.

She didn't dare to do that in front of Jiang. She was a famous female doctor, a female official in Shili Town, with status and wealth, and she had medical skills...

What if one day you ask to come here?

Smiled and said,

"Yes, yes, Doctor Jiang is right. I was the one who was abrupt. The family I mentioned today is far from worthy of Doctor Jiang. I won't mention it anymore. I have something to do and will leave first. I will visit again next time if there is someone who meets Doctor Jiang's requirements."

Jiang Lianzhu said with a forced smile, "Goodbye, I just have a few conditions. I'd like to ask Aunt Mei to help me find someone."

"Okay, okay."

After Mei Po left, Jiang Lianzhu silently stretched out her foot behind her, pretending to kick her.

He even gritted his teeth.

This made Jiang Cheng laugh.

"He's an adult, and he means well. Forget it. If the conditions you proposed get out, won't it have a negative impact?"

Jiang Lianzhu retracted her hands and feet and returned to normal. "Why is it a bad influence? Am I, your daughter, not worthy of these conditions? I am so outstanding, how can any ordinary man be worthy of me?"

Jiang Cheng sighed, "Your first and second points are quite sincere, but doesn't the third one seem like an embarrassment to others? How many people are as beautiful as Wang Laowu? I've never seen one... Forget about the surrounding area. Even if you were to go to the county town and look for someone according to Wang Laowu's standards, I'm afraid it would be difficult to find one."

Jiang Lianzhu chuckled, "Isn't it just a casual remark? Isn't appearance something that depends on the eye?"

If there really is someone who looks like Wang Laowu, then he might be another scumbag!

After that scumbag left, every night when I woke up in the middle of the night, I saw things piled on the couch in a daze, and I thought it was a bachelor sleeping on the couch.

When you find out that it is not the case, your heart will feel empty at that moment.

Empty, lonely and cold? ! ! No no no...

He's just a jerk. How could she possibly think of him? He doesn't exist!

…

Grandma Mei left the entrance of Wangjia Village.

There was a young man wearing a conical hat waiting for her.

"How's it going? Did you get it done?"

Grandma Mei looked at him angrily and said, "They don't want outsiders. They want local young men who know their background well, who are good-looking, who have never been married, who have some property at home, whose parents are still alive, and whose father and brother have legitimate businesses. They don't want live-in sons-in-law. How do you think you meet the requirements? Can you be accepted? You've made me, an old woman, embarrassed. You almost got bitten by their dog. Let me tell you, why are you, an outsider, joining in the fun? The first requirement doesn't apply to you..."

"This is the fee for tea and errands for the marriage proposal. Please keep it." The man in the bamboo hat handed her a silver ingot, weighing about four or five taels.

Suddenly, Mrs. Mei swallowed her complaints and said, "They just don't want outsiders. Actually, you are not bad in other aspects. It's a pity. If you like someone else, I will talk to you again."

The man in the bamboo hat said, "I just think Doctor Jiang is a good person and I want to visit her. Do you think there is any room for persuasion?"

"I'm afraid there aren't any more. Doctor Jiang is really good. She has land, medical skills, and she's young and beautiful. Actually, let me be fair. Her three children are not considered a burden. A woman without any property and poor enough to marry and raise children is considered a burden. Doctor Jiang can support her children and take care of her in her old age, so how can she be called a burden? That's not a problem. Unfortunately, Doctor Jiang has high requirements. Whether she is recruiting a son-in-law or marrying him off, the conditions are the same. The first requirement is that he must be a local who knows her well. You don't even have to think about it."

The man in the bamboo hat hummed a few times, indicating that he had given up.

After parting with Mei Po, the man in the bamboo hat still kept his gaze in the direction of Wangjia Village for a long time before slowly withdrawing his gaze.

The day after Mei Po left, those people who had been secretly trying to arrange a marriage for Jiang Lianzhu temporarily stopped.

There are very few young men in the area who meet the conditions that Jiang Lianzhu described.

Even if he could barely have it, why would he marry a divorced woman with three, no, four, children?

Isn’t a pure and innocent young girl attractive?

Want to marry such a strong and divorced second-hand girl?

So, many people who couldn't meet the conditions started to talk about Jiang Lianzhu, saying that she was a toad wanting to eat swan meat and was trying to ruin someone's young life. Forget it...

Especially the old Wang family, Wang Liu and the others laughed wildly with their hands on their hips after hearing the news.

Jiang Lianzhu was just daydreaming, she had no self-awareness at all. She just knew some medical skills and was a bit capable. She was given the title of "female official" and she was asking for such demands from a young man. It was better this way. She couldn't get married. No matter how much property she earned in the future, it would belong to Dabao and his children, and also to the grandchildren of the Wang family. If their son Wang Laowu came back again, maybe there would be some hope...

In short, there was basically no one who proposed marriage to Jiang Lianzhu before the New Year.

***

It snowed until New Year's Eve.

Auspicious snow indicates a good harvest.

Every household has put up Spring Festival couplets and hung up lanterns. This year's Spring Festival couplets and red lanterns were distributed by the village. The village uncle bought red paper wholesale and wrote them for everyone himself. Every household received a pair for free, without any payment required.

Paste it up to bring joy and good luck in the coming year.

All the children wore new clothes and were running and playing happily in the snow. The boys were in one group and the girls were in another. Nianbao was a little follower of her brothers. She also joined the boys, making snowmen and having snowball fights. Her pockets were filled with delicious food, so bulging that they looked as cute as her round face.
