Old Man Shen wanted to find someone to ask around in the surrounding villages to find a husband for Shen Siyue as soon as possible, the sooner the better.
This might even earn you a little money.
If you don't have money, just give me something.
It's better than her wasting food at home and making people worry every day.
If you want to ask him why he didn't find a husband for Shen Siyue before Shen Qiushu got married?
Old man Shen had his own plans in mind.
First, he really wanted to take some of the money from the eldest brother and his wife when the third brother got married.
Giving the couple money in the first place was out of necessity. I could only appease the eldest brother and his wife first. Otherwise, the Zhao family’s marriage would be ruined, and the two families would become enemies!
Second, it was simply because Old Man Shen didn’t want to give the Li family that much.
His family can ask for more when marrying off a girl, but if someone else marries into their Shen family, they are marrying up, so why should they ask for so much?
If Shen Siyue had found a husband and had money in her hands, the third child would definitely have thrown a tantrum and wanted to get married quickly.
Wouldn’t that be a bargain for the Li family?
Based on the above points, Old Man Shen suppressed his disgust and endured Shen Siyue until now.
It just so happens that Old Man Shen has no money now, and he is panicking. If he can use Shen Siyue to exchange for a little money, it would not be in vain to support her.
So after finishing breakfast, Old Man Shen left the Shen family with his hands behind his back.
Shen Siyue is now famous for being crazy, and I'm afraid that the people who are talking about being a daughter-in-law will have to back off once they find out.
He didn't expect to give something to a healthy young man. As long as the other party gave something, it would be enough. As for whether the person was good or not, he didn't care at all.
The first place we arrived at was Liu Qingshan’s house.
Early in the morning, Liu Qingshan's family had just finished breakfast and the table was not yet cleared when they saw Old Man Shen slowly walking into the yard.
When Mrs. Qing heard the noise, she hurried out to greet him at the door: "Hey, Zhifu, how come you have time to come over today? Have you eaten? If not, come in and eat something."
Mrs. Qing looked at Old Man Shen in confusion, wondering what the old man was doing here today?
Is there something wrong between Mr. Shen and the girl from the Li family?
Do you want to ask her, the matchmaker, for justice?
Or break off the engagement?
Mrs. Qing was in a state of confusion.
Ever since the marriage between the Shen and Li families was settled, Old Man Shen gave her the matchmaking gift. Is he here to take it back now?
Old Man Shen greeted Mrs. Qing and went into the house.
Sitting on the kang, I talked with Liu Qingshan about all sorts of things.
After asking her daughter-in-law to clear the table, Mother Qing sat aside and listened.
After listening for a while, seeing that Old Man Shen still didn't tell her purpose, he couldn't hold it in any longer.
Mother Qing opened her mouth and asked: "Zhi Fu, Lao San and Xiao Qin are doing well, right?"
"It's pretty good. Xiaoqin is much better than her father. She is diligent, sensible, and has a keen eye for work."
When Old Man Shen talked about his third daughter-in-law who had just come in, his mouth was full of praise.
When Mrs. Qing heard this, she knew that Shen Zhifu's visit was not for the marriage between the Shen and Li families.
She didn't want to listen to the two old men's bragging, so she stood up and was about to leave: "Then you two can chat first, I have some work to do outside."
Old man Shen hurriedly called her: "Hey, sister-in-law, don't leave yet. I'm here to bother you today."
Mother Qing stood there looking at him in confusion: "What else do you want from me? Isn't the third child doing well?"
"It's because the third brother's marriage is going well, so I want to trouble my sister-in-law again."
Old man Shen took a puff of his cigarette and looked at the kang mat with a slightly worried look on his face: "Those who should get married have already done so. Although Dawei is getting old, there is no rush."
"I came to see my sister-in-law today because I wanted to ask her to find a husband for Si Nier!"
"I'm not worried about anyone else, except Si Ni'er... She's like this now, you don't know what's going on. She'll resort to violence if she doesn't get her way."
"She has disturbed the family for a long time. I am thinking whether I should find her a husband. A happy event will bring peace of mind to her family and she will be able to come to her senses."
"Hey, you watched her grow up too. She was such a well-behaved girl when she was little. Who would have thought she would become like this?"
"I have to take care of the household while I am still at home! The second brother and his wife are too honest, they only know how to work and don't worry about anything else! I really have no choice!"
Old man Shen spoke these words with a heavy and distressed tone.
If an outsider who doesn’t know the truth, he must think that Old Man Shen loves Shen Siyue so much!
Mother Qing glanced at her old man and silently sat back on the kang.
Mother Qing thought about it for a while and said to him, "Find a husband for Si Ni? I'm afraid it won't happen so quickly!"
After all, when someone talks about a daughter-in-law, everyone will ask around.
The fourth daughter of the Shen family has become a celebrity in the village recently, so it’s hard to say what’s going on.
Old Man Shen waved his hands quickly: "Don't worry, don't rush. I'm not urging my sister-in-law to find it for her right away."
"I know her situation is difficult to deal with, so I want my sister-in-law to find out. The betrothal gift and other things can be discussed."
After Old Man Shen finished speaking, he was afraid that Mrs. Qing would really not pay attention to him and would not do it for two days, so he added another sentence.
"Of course, it would be better if we could find her a husband as soon as possible, so that I can put my mind at ease as soon as possible, right? At her age, she might not be able to get up one day, and then no one would take care of her!"
"So, please help me find it. I will definitely give you a thank you gift afterwards."
Mother Qing quickly waved her hand politely: "Well, it's too formal to say this. We all live in the same village. Si Ni'er's situation is really pitiful."
