The three of them sat down in the main room and after a few pleasantries, Accountant Zheng finally got to the point.
"I wonder if Comrade Shen has any instructions for coming here this time?"
He just suddenly remembered that the deputy director of the commune revolutionary committee was Lin Weiguo's brother-in-law.
Then this Comrade Shen should be Shen Wenfang's biological sister.
Since he is a relative of Lin Weiguo, why bring him to your home?
Although he was secretly complaining in his heart, Accountant Zheng was still very polite to Aunt Shen Fourth because of Cao Changzheng's face.
Even though he felt as if countless bugs were crawling on his body and it was so itchy that he couldn't sit still, he still gritted his teeth and endured it in order to entertain Fourth Aunt Shen.
Only when I really can't bear it anymore will I scratch it secretly while talking.
He thought no one noticed his little actions, but he didn't know that Lin Weiguo saw them all.
Seeing Accountant Zheng being tortured like this, some of the frustration he had felt from being plotted against was finally released.
But he is not a stubborn person, and he will definitely settle the account with Zheng Hui.
But I'm afraid I'll be sorry to Aunt Shen's family by then.
But there was nothing that could be done about it, because Second Aunt Shen refused to listen to any advice and insisted on proposing marriage to Accountant Zheng.
Aunt Shen Si didn't know what Lin Weiguo was thinking. When she heard Accountant Zheng's question, she thought that as the male representatives, they must be more humble.
So even though she looked down on Accountant Zheng, she still forced a smile at him and told him the purpose of her visit today.
"Everyone knows that Accountant Zheng has three daughters. Their fame has spread to the neighboring brigade."
"I heard that your eldest daughter is getting married. As the saying goes, a daughter from one family attracts hundreds of families, so my second sister asked me to come and mediate."
"I don't know if Accountant Zheng has heard of my second sister's family. They're from the Huangqiao Brigade next door, Yang Erlin's family. Their son is called Yang Qingshan."
"I'm not just praising my nephew as his aunt, but our Qingshan is indeed a handsome man. The key is that he has a good personality. He will definitely be a loving wife in the future."
"Also, my second sister and her husband are well-known for their good tempers in the Huangqiao Brigade. If your daughter marries them, she will definitely live a comfortable life!"
I have to say that although Fourth Aunt Shen's temper is not very good, it is already very good that she can lose face and do this for her nephew.
If she were to follow her usual temper, she would definitely ignore Accountant Zheng, let alone speak in a flattering manner like she did now.
But even so, Accountant Zheng did not agree immediately just because it was Aunt Shen who asked.
Because he had already remembered which family Fourth Aunt Shen was talking about.
Yang Erlin's family in Huangqiao Brigade...
I had indeed asked someone to talk to Daya before, but I rejected it at that time.
The reason is naturally that his family is too poor!
Even though Yang Erlin's family has a relative named Aunt Shen Si, that cannot hide the fact that Yang Erlin's family is a notoriously poor family in Huangqiao Brigade.
I heard that there are only two rooms in the house, which is the worst in their Tashan Brigade.
This condition definitely couldn't afford the betrothal money he asked for, and even if Fourth Aunt Shen was invited to come and propose marriage, he would not agree.
Thinking of this, Accountant Zheng considered how to speak. It would be best to reply without offending Fourth Aunt Shen.
He first glanced at Aunt Shen Si for a few times, then looked at her face and pretended to sigh.
"It's truly an honor for my family that Comrade Shen has bothered to make this special trip for my daughter's sake. Logically, I shouldn't hesitate any longer and should happily agree to this marriage."
Fourth Aunt Shen looked delighted, thinking she had accomplished the task, but she didn't expect Accountant Zheng to change the subject again.
"But, ah, pitiful parents all over the world, I have heard about the conditions of Brother Yang's family."
"My daughter, Daya, has been raised in the palm of my hand by my husband and me. We never wanted her to suffer from any hardship since she was little."
"So, as parents, we naturally hope that she can have a good life after getting married. At the very least, her life shouldn't be worse than ours, right?"
Fourth Aunt Shen's heart skipped a beat, but she still nodded in agreement.
"That's for sure. I'm also a parent and I have a daughter, so I understand your concerns."
"I know that the current situation of my second sister's family is really not good."
"But we sincerely want to marry your eldest daughter. For this reason, my second sister and her family have already found out your family's requirements and have prepared the betrothal money."
"As for the house at home, my second sister and her husband are also planning to build another room for the children to use as a new home."
"So if you agree to marry Daya, I can assure you that I will never let Daya suffer."
In order to get this done, Fourth Aunt Shen said all the good things she could think of, and even told Second Aunt Shen's family all about their plans.
As soon as these words were spoken, Accountant Zheng, who was originally determined not to agree, was instantly shaken.
You should know that the main reason why Zheng Daya hasn't found a boyfriend yet is the issue of the bride price.
So far, no one has been able to afford the 100 yuan betrothal gift.
This is also why he set his sights on Shi Yan and Qin Jianye.
But he was a little skeptical. With Yang Erlin's family having trouble even getting enough to eat, how could they come up with a hundred yuan betrothal gift?
Could it be that Fourth Aunt Shen didn't know the situation and just said it casually?
He immediately rubbed his hands together and pretended to test casually:
"It's not that we're forcing her. It's mainly because we've worked so hard to raise Daya to this age, and we've put in so much effort. So in our hearts, my daughter Daya is naturally the best."
"We also want to give her the best, so we asked for a hundred yuan betrothal gift. This is mainly to test the other party's sincerity and see if they value Daya enough."
