Chapter 297: The Furious Fighting Chicken



"Oh, that's right!"

Aunt Lin said with a smile, "The little girl's name is Ling, she is very cute, and she matches your Zhuangzhuang very well."

Xiao Guogan blinked a few times and accepted the other party's intention with difficulty. It was too early to arrange a marriage for Zhuangzhuang. It was really ridiculous.

"Let's arrange a baby marriage first, then get married in a few years, and soon you'll be a grandmother..."

Seeing that the other party was talking more and more, Xiaoguo quickly stopped him, mainly because she was afraid that if she didn't stop him, the other party would get excited and take charge.

"No, no, our Zhuangzhuang is still young, there's no need to rush."

She could have politely refused. If she had met someone who understood, she would have stopped without further explanation. But she met the stubborn and clever man from Taohua Village who would not give up until he achieved his goal. How could he give up so easily?

"Oh, sister! What do you mean early? Time has passed in a flash. Let's get engaged first and get married later!"

"Really not."

Xiao Guo didn't care what she said, even if she said something flowery, she was really sick and inexplicable. She took a deep breath and tried to speak in a calm tone, "Auntie, don't say it. My son Zhuangzhuang is still young. Let's talk about these things when he grows up."

Aunt Lin's eyes rolled, and she guessed that she might be dissatisfied with Liu Hai's daughter. It doesn't matter, she still has a bunch of girls.

"Liu Hai's daughter is not good enough. Zhang Quandan's two daughters are ten years old and three years old. Li Shuangshu's daughter is four years old this year. The daughter of Widow Song is six years old. Yan Long's twins are five years old this year. Lao Liu's granddaughter is..."

Xiaoguo couldn't stand it anymore. She had almost told all the little girls in the village about this. What was going on?

"Auntie! No need, thank you so much. Our Zhuangzhuang doesn't consider child marriage. Goodbye, don't come again in the future. If I need you, I will find you first. If I don't find you, it means I don't need you. I won't see you off. Bye, bye."

Xiaoguo pushed her out as she spoke. Aunt Lin was still muttering about the little girl in the village unwillingly.

As soon as Xiaoguo finished speaking, the door closed from the inside. Not relieved after it closed, she locked it. After confirming that it couldn't be opened, she finally relaxed completely.

Seeing that there was no hope today, Aunt Lin stamped her feet helplessly and continued, "Hey, Xiaoguo, Xiaoguo, think about it carefully, I'll come again tomorrow!"

Xiaoguo couldn't help but shudder when she heard the other party's reluctance to give up. He was really stubborn.

"This is really inexplicable!" Xiaoguo said, and prepared to go back to the house.

After taking only two steps, there was a knock on the door.

Xiaoguo shuddered subconsciously and thought, No way, no way!

"Xiao Guo, it's me."

Xiao Guo felt relieved when Mrs. Yang spoke, "Here she comes."

"What happened just now?" Mrs. Yang heard what Aunt Lin said as soon as she went out, so she asked curiously.

"Alas~"

Xiaoguo was worried that she had no one to complain to, so she told everything to Mrs. Yang, "Tell me, how did they know that Zhuangzhuang went to school?"

This was something Xiaoguo couldn't understand no matter how hard she tried. How did they suddenly know about her family's affairs overnight? They didn't normally interact with them, and the only ones who knew about her family's situation were Mrs. Yang and her family. But they were not talkative people, and they would definitely not tell anyone about her family's affairs.

Xiaoguo was thinking seriously and did not notice Mrs. Yang's awkward expression.

"Xiao Guo..."

"Um?"

"Well... I'm so sorry..." This was the first time that Mrs. Yang felt sorry for Xiaoguo. She was so embarrassed that she couldn't even raise her head. "It's all my fault..."

Xiao Guo looked puzzled, "What's going on?"

"That's what happened..."

After hearing what Sister Yang said, Xiao Guo shook her head and laughed, "So it was you who told it to others."

"I really didn't mean to do that. I told everyone about it somehow. It's all that Widow Song's fault. She insisted on saying how good her daughter was. I was so anxious that I told everyone about Zhuangzhuang going to school. You know, neither of my daughters are very good. I told everyone about Zhuangzhuang because I wanted to show off my skills..."

Mrs. Yang was dealing with the problem herself, and her voice became quieter and quieter, until it was not much louder than a mosquito.

“That’s not all I said.”

Xiaoguo narrowed his eyes and got to the point.

"!!" Sister Yang suddenly raised her head and glanced at her, then lowered her head again, mumbling, "And there's also the matter of Shan He being an official in the capital, but don't worry, I didn't mention his official position!"

When Xiaoguo heard this, she understood everything. So that's how it was. She wondered why everyone suddenly became so warm and polite to her. It turned out that the focus was still Jiang Shanhe, who was an official in the capital.

Mrs. Yang was so embarrassed that she couldn't even raise her head. Xiaoguo was a low-key person to begin with, but she had caused so much trouble for the sake of venting her anger.

“…”

"Xiao Guo, please don't ignore me. I don't know what's wrong with me. I wasn't like this before. I don't know if it's because I'm pregnant, but I'm like a chicken with its feathers standing on end every day. Please don't be angry. I'm really sorry..."

"Pfft~" Xiao Guo was not angry at first. It was just that it was rare to see Mrs. Yang admit her mistakes, so she thought it was interesting and teased her on purpose. However, when she heard her describe herself like that, she couldn't hold back for a moment. She thought the description was quite apt.

As soon as she saw her smile, Sister Yang knew that she was teasing her on purpose, so she felt relieved and smiled shyly, "That's what your elder brother Yang said, saying that I was a chicken with its feathers blown off. Now that I think about it, it's quite fitting."

Xiaoguo poured her a glass of water and placed it beside her. "So, I understand everything. I said it's impossible to send him food and arrange a marriage just because Zhuangzhuang goes to school."

After Xiaoguo figured it out, she calmly drank a sip of water. It turned out that all the problems were caused by Jiang Shanhe.

"Oh, by the way, don't bother with the people in our village. They are all a bunch of people who want to curry favor with the rich and powerful. When they hear that your family is a high-ranking official and your son is a scholar with a bright future, they are eager to become relatives with you."

Mrs. Yang didn't look down on the people in the village, but the parents were snobbish people, so no matter how good the daughter was, she would still consider it with caution.

What's more, although Zhuangzhuang is still young, thanks to the master he has, there will definitely be countless bright paths waiting for him when he grows up, so he can't ruin his future.

Although she was not quite sure who Confucius was, based on the fact that her brother-in-law Yang Jia almost fainted with excitement upon hearing the name of Confucius, it was remarkable that Confucius was still strong.

He is so talented when he is young, let alone when he grows up, so don't rush to get engaged now, no one can predict what will happen in the future.

"...When he grows up, there will be girls of all shapes and sizes waiting for him to choose. There is no need to rush now."

Mrs. Yang was worried about Xiaoguo, fearing that she would agree without hesitation, so she explained all the pros and cons to her one by one, and asked her to be cautious.

Xiaoguo was confident that Zhuangzhuang was only four years old and would definitely not agree to such a ridiculous thing. Besides, it was a lifelong event and could not be taken lightly or rushed.

Even if Zhuangzhuang grows up in the future, I will not get involved in Zhuangzhuang's life-long affairs. If he likes something at that time, I can just check it myself and not get involved in too much.

However, listening to Mrs. Yang talking about her fantasies about Zhuangzhuang when he grows up, I found it very interesting, so I didn't interrupt her and secretly imagined in my mind what Zhuangzhuang would look like when he grows up.

She must be handsome, graceful, polite, jade-like, energetic, handsome, imposing, calm and elegant!
