Chapter 264: Understanding Too Late
After hearing this, Zhang ran to Sanheizi's house.
The village head stamped his feet anxiously, "Oh! We finally had some peace and quiet, and now trouble is about to happen again!"
When Zhang came, Sanheizi and his mother were pushing the millstone to grind rapeseed in the yard.
Zhang rushed in directly, "Sanheizi, how can you be so heartless? If you go to see another girl, what will happen to Shuihe?"
Sanheizi was about to speak when his mother dropped the small broom she was using to brush the rapeseed flour and spoke angrily.
"I knew you, a shameless person, would come knocking on my door sooner or later! What's going on? Your daughter is so greedy, treating my son like a fool, and still dreaming of marrying into my family? Do you think she's the only woman left in the world and we can't live without her?!"
Zhang said anxiously, "That was before. Shuihe has changed now. She truly wants to live with your son! Can't you just let it go?"
Sanheizi's mother sneered, "A dog will always eat shit, and a cat will always steal fish! Even if you say it to the sky, my Sanheizi will not marry your daughter."
Zhang looked at the silent Sanheizi with anticipation.
"Heizi, why don't you say something! I know it was Shui He who made you sad, but now she knows she's wrong! Haven't you always cherished my Shui He? Now that she has changed her mind, just treat it as good things that come to those who wait, right? Don't be so magnanimous, just reconcile with my Shui He!"
"Aunt, it's too late." San Heizi said expressionlessly, "Back then, I really liked Shui He. I thought she was the best girl in the world and wanted to give her my heart.
But later I realized that she had no heart at all, she had no emotions! All she had eyes for was money, and all she wanted was a life of wealth and glory! I, Sanheizi, am just a farmer, I can't satisfy her! Auntie, don't make trouble again! Every time you make trouble, Shuihe's reputation will be ruined, and in the end, you will be the ones who suffer!
Zhang said dejectedly, "Are you completely determined? There's no room for maneuver at all?"
"Yes!" San Heizi said firmly, "I just want to find someone who can live a stable life!"
Zhang was unwilling to give up, "But Shui He, I can live a peaceful life with you..."
"Mom! Stop talking!" Shui He ran out from somewhere.
He ran over and pulled Zhang, "Let's go back!"
Zhang cried: "What do you know? Sanheizi is getting engaged. He's going to marry someone else!"
Shui He was stunned and stared at San Hei Zi blankly, "Are you really going to get engaged to someone else? You don't believe any of my oaths and curses?"
San Heizi said impatiently, "Don't bother me anymore. I really won't marry you! I can only blame myself for being blind and falling for your tricks! Tell us clearly in front of everyone today what you want in exchange for letting me go!"
"San Heizi, I understand. I will never bother you again!"
Shui He bit her lip and ran out.
Zhang gritted her teeth and said, "Sanheizi, don't make it sound like you've suffered a great loss. Don't think I don't know that you and Shuihe..."
Shui He screamed, "Mom! Stop it! I was the one who made the mistake first, so I can't blame anyone else! Just give me some face!"
Zhang asked, "Isn't he guilty at all? Does he really have a clear conscience?"
"If I hadn't been so obsessed with climbing up the social ladder, he wouldn't be like this." Shui He shed two lines of tears.
In the past, she always felt that God treated her unfairly.
She was given a good appearance, but was born in Heihe Village, which gave her no chance to come into contact with the children of wealthy families.
As a result, Rong'er, a beautiful girl from the capital, lived directly in Heihe Village. She once laughed at others for being stupid in her heart.
Later, Rong'er and Ye Yan'an got engaged, and she began to hate herself for not having any decent parents.
It was not until she was humiliated by Zhou Huaining that she began to understand that the problem seemed to lie with herself.
Recently, when she saw that Rong'er was going to be a female teacher, she realized that Rong'er was so outstanding.
It turns out that such outstanding people would not have unrealistic dreams, would not treat themselves as commodities, and would not actively advertise themselves to lure others to buy them at high prices.
It's just that she understood this truth a little too late.
Matchmaker Qin came over and said, "Mother Shui He, as the saying goes, a forced melon is not sweet. Why do you have to hang yourself on this tree? Shui He is beautiful, so there is no need to worry about not finding a good family. As long as you are not as picky as before, I promise to find a good marriage for your daughter!"
Matchmaker Qin didn't want Shui Heniang to ruin Sanheizi's marriage, otherwise her efforts these days would be in vain.
Before Zhang could say anything, Shui He responded loudly: "Then I'll trouble you, auntie!"
Matchmaker Qin said with a smile, "Miss Shui He is a smart person who knows how to let go of things easily. I'll go to your house and talk to you guys after I finish my work here!"
Shui He said loudly: "No need to go to my house, Auntie can ask anything here!"
Matchmaker Qin didn't expect Shui He to be so direct. "Since you're so opinionated, let me ask you, what are your requirements for your future in-laws and the betrothal gift? That way I can have a better idea."
"Of course..." Qin Matchmaker said softly, "Considering your current reputation, you should lower your requirements..."
"I don't have any requests!"
"Ah?" Matchmaker Qin thought she had misheard. "You didn't make any requests?"
"Yes! The only requirement is..." Shui He pointed at San Hei Zi, "I must get married before he gets married!"
After saying that, he left without looking back.
The three black guys took a step forward, but eventually stopped where they were.
Zhang was so anxious that she burst into tears. "Matchmaker Qin, she was just saying that out of anger. You still have to help her choose a good family!"
"That's natural, don't worry!"
Qin the matchmaker was beaming with joy. How wonderful it was! She could earn more money by arranging one more marriage.
The onlookers dispersed while shaking their heads. One can only say that people should not be too pretentious. Shuihe, who had no worries about getting married in the past, has now started to give up.
After Qin the matchmaker had discussed the matter with Sanheizi's family, she hurried to the door of the Huo family.
"Zhuang Lizheng, you are demolishing my in-laws' house, right?"
The village head nodded.
"I'm afraid this isn't suitable. I don't know if there's anything valuable in here. My Xiang'er didn't even know you were going to demolish her mother's house!"
"Just in time, take all this back." The village head pointed at the dilapidated ruins and said unhappily, "Take all these bricks, tiles, wood, etc."
"What do I need these rags for? I mean, what if there are silver or copper coins stuffed in the cracks in the wall? You should let my daughter Xiang'er be present, after all, they are her family's things..."
"Do you think your life is too long? Are you looking for trouble again?"
A faint voice came, and Luo Qiuyue slowly walked over.
Matchmaker Qin shuddered for no reason. She didn't know why, but ever since she had fallen seriously ill for no apparent reason and almost died last time, she felt that the Ye family was very weird.
"No, no!" Matchmaker Qin slid away quickly. "We were wrong last time. We all fell seriously ill, and my nephew and his wife died! Just forget about it!"
Luo Qiuyue: “…”
What a neglect! What a neglect!
I forgot to detoxify Qin Erzhu and the other man in the town!
Forget it, I’ll go back and continue beating the wooden fish tonight!
