Chapter 230 Propose Marriage Together

If Jiang Wan hadn't said these words today.

Lao Tietou still lives a happy life with his adopted sister and her husband.

He did have some other thoughts about his adopted sister, but he knew that she had been controlling herself well after she got married.

He was too ashamed to face this absurd incident, and was even more afraid that he would have false thoughts and disturb his sister's life, so he left.

I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it...

Lao Tietou's eyes turned red.

"Girl, then, how is the daughter who was born later?"

Jiang Wan felt a little reluctant, but still told the truth: "She has passed away, but she also gave birth to a daughter."

Lao Tietou was so overwhelmed with joy and sorrow that he almost vomited blood. Then he heard that there was a granddaughter and he had an inexplicable bad feeling in his heart.

"That girl's name is Jiang Cao, and she told me all these stories. Jiang Cao has lived with her mother and grandmother since she was a child. Her father died early, her grandmother also passed away early, and her mother died of illness two years ago. She had no relatives, so she came to the south alone to look for her relatives. Oh, she was looking for her grandfather."

Jiang Wan paused here.

"Master Tietou, how are you feeling? Can you handle the stimulation?"

Upon hearing this, Lao Tietou felt his heart turn cold and he forced a smile.

"I, I can bear it, you tell me."

"She was stolen and entangled on the road, and then met a man who kidnapped her and brought her to the island. In the end, she was sold to a man in a village at the foot of the mountain as a daughter-in-law. That family was not a good family and treated her very badly. A while ago, they broke her head and refused to pay for her medicine. Now she is temporarily staying in my pharmacy."

With a bang, Anan's small table was broken by the angry Lao Tietou.

The room suddenly fell silent.

Lao Tietou held his chest and panted for a long time before he calmed down a little, his voice trembling abnormally.

"Little Wan, I, I, I want to see her..."

"Grandpa Tietou, if you want to go see Sister Jiangcao right away, it's too late to go down the mountain now. How about waiting for two days? We will wait for the hunting team to come back before we go back. You should take it easy first, and then we can go back together. We can also talk to Sister Jiangcao first so that she can be mentally prepared."

Lao Tietou took Anan's suggestion to heart.

He now feels extremely guilty. He wants to see his granddaughter, but he is also afraid to see her.

Indeed, it would be better if Anan and the others were there.

"You can think about what kind of gift to prepare for Sister Jiangcao. You must give her something when you meet her for the first time as your grandfather, right?"

Lao Tietou nodded repeatedly.

He really should go back and prepare gifts. He had neglected to take care of them for so many years, causing his granddaughter to live such a miserable life. He must make it up to her in the future.

"I'm going to go back first! Anan, I'll fix your table for you later!"

Lao Tietou turned around and walked away, and his steps did not look like that of an old man at all.

"I saw Grandpa Tietou secretly wiping away tears. This is the first time I saw him cry."

Anan was very sad.

"I never thought that we would have such a fate with Sister Jiang Cao. By the way, Xiao Wan, do you think we can get Sister Jiang Cao to the village? Anyway, the village doesn't need any household registration. We can just take her away and let the family who bought her lose a laborer. That old woman will be so mad!"

Jiang Wan understood what Anan meant.

If Grandpa Tietou went down the mountain to redeem the person, that family would definitely raise the price and not let him go.

When necessary, we still need to use some tricks.

Of course, you have to clean up your own house first.

After Jiang Cao goes back, she can find some time to sneak into the mountain and follow Grandpa Tietou up the mountain. It is guaranteed that no one will be able to find her.

This is a relatively simple and rough method of handling the matter. The advantage is that you can directly leave the family. The disadvantage is that you will probably not be able to move down the mountain in the future, and your household registration will become waste paper.

Let Jiang Cao worry about the choice herself. Jiang Wan just wants to convey a message.

That night, the village was peaceful and calm. Jiang Wan had been pestered by Anan and talked about Sun Houzi for several hours, so she woke up late in the morning.

"Xiao Wan, the people in the village said that my uncle and his family will probably not be back until tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. How about I take you to the mountains to pick some fruits today?"

Jiang Wan was about to say yes, but her foot stepped on the ground and she grimaced in pain.

I just popped the blister and applied medicine this morning, and now my soles hurt. It hurts to walk around the house, let alone go out to pick fruit.

She has the will but not the ability.

"I'm not going. I'll go with you tomorrow when my foot feels better. By the way, you said yesterday that many women in the village weave cloth at home in their free time. I want to go and see if that's okay?"

"Of course you can. I'll help you go to Sister Yueliang's house. There are no men in her family, so you should feel more comfortable there."

Jiang Wan had no objection, and after breakfast she followed Anan to see the weaving.

When she entered the village, she saw many people wearing Li ethnic costumes, mostly dark blue, with bright colors and patterns woven on the cuffs, collars and hems.

It is usually worn by women, as men's clothes don't have any bright colors.

Anan's and Yueliang's homes were about four houses away, and they were warmly welcomed as soon as they entered.

Anan, in particular, was hugged and kneaded by the girl named Yueliang.

You can see that they have a good relationship.

Jiang Wan was listening to their conversation carefully, wanting to learn the Li language. Before she could even sit down, she saw a young man walk in carrying a bamboo basket tied with red cloth.

"Aunt Qiao, I want to marry Sister Yueliang. This is the betrothal gift I prepared!"

Upon hearing this, Anan quickly gave up his seat and sat next to Jiang Wan to translate for her in real time.

Now that they have met a man who wants to propose marriage, it's not easy for them to leave, so they have to congratulate him first.

Aunt Qiao looked at her daughter and poked her gently.

"Yue, look, Xiaoqiang prepared a very substantial betrothal gift."

Yueliang pursed her lips, glanced at the gate, and then looked away.

"Mother, I want to stay at home for two more years."

Before Aunt Qiao could say anything, Xiaoqiang at the side had already spoken enthusiastically.

"Sister Yueliang, we can get engaged first and not rush into marriage. I can wait for you for two years!"

The boy's face was red, his eyes were bright, and he was enthusiastic and persistent.

Yueliang still shook her head. She didn't like Xiaoqiang, and she disliked his whole family even more. Why would she get engaged to him?

After Anan finished translating, he added something in a low voice.

"Brother Qiang has liked Sister Yueyue for several years, but this is the first time he has mustered up the courage to propose marriage."

“Is this a failure now?”

Anan nodded and was about to say something when a simple-looking man came in through the door.

He also carried a basket of betrothal gifts and four rabbits.

"Aunt Qiao, I want to marry Sister Yueyue. Are these betrothal gifts enough?"

Jiang Wan’s eyes widened.

Two people proposed marriage together!

Exciting, exciting, are we going to start a fight soon?
