Chapter 131 Always Familiar
As expected, Lu Chengzong did not come to the stall again.
Lu Qiniang was finally satisfied.
Sun Shun specifically came to say that Lu Chengzong was transferred away from Chaoguan, and also told him that no one from the Lu family was allowed to come to see Lu Qiniang again, otherwise he would lose his job.
Lu Qiniang sincerely thanked Sun Shun.
Sun Shun felt a little embarrassed.
"I know, you didn't start this either."
Zhang Heyao is a person who cares a lot about face. Now that he is an official, he wants to crush people just because he is one level higher in rank.
In private, Sun Shun always called him "Master Zhang".
Why bother making things difficult for people who have nothing to do with you?
Picking a less busy afternoon and instructing her daughters to look after the stall, Lu Qiniang rushed to Chen Ji's cooked meat stall.
"Cut me two pounds of pig's head meat, make sure it's mushy, for the old man to eat."
She carried two pounds of pork head and weighed two pounds of crispy cakes and went to Mrs. Sun's house.
"Old lady, I'm Qi Niang. I've come to see you!" Lu Qin Niang walked in with a smile. "Your life has improved now. You have maids and servants to serve you!"
The house is still the same house, but the furnishings inside have been completely renewed, and the yard is tidy and full of vitality.
"Qi Niang, Qi Niang, come and sit down!" Granny Sun held Lu Qin Niang's hand and was reluctant to let go, feeling a little aggrieved. "Why did you come to see me just now? I look forward to your coming every day."
Lu Qinniang smiled sheepishly and said, "I'm busy, busy all day long, but now I'm here to see you. I bought you some pig's head, it's still warm, do you want me to cut some for you to eat?"
"No, no, take it back." Grandma Sun said, "Take it back to feed the children. You have many children. I am an old woman now. I eat meat every day and I can't eat anymore! Whatever you eat, you should eat while you are young. Don't bring anything with you next time!"
"I can't come to see you empty-handed! It's a token of my appreciation, please don't despise it." Lu Qiniang knew she was hard of hearing, so she spoke in a hoarse voice, "Come on, the sun is nice now, don't get too hot, I'll help you go out to bask in the sun, and we can talk. I've been thinking about you!"
"You're not thinking about me. I saw Shunzi coming back, and you became distant from me." Grandma Sun said, "You're just like that, child. You only want to help others, and you don't want to take advantage of them at all. You think Shunzi is an official, and I have someone to take care of me, so you won't come anymore, right?"
"No, no, I won't take advantage of others, but I will take advantage of whatever advantage you give me." Lu Qin's mother laughed and helped her out of the door affectionately.
A gentle breeze blew, and Mrs. Sun and Lu Qiniang began to chat.
"...Since Shunzi has returned, there have been more people at home, but I don't like the noise, so I won't let them come. I don't care what others say now. I'm half buried in the ground, so I'm not afraid of what people say. I just hope Shunzi is fine and doesn't cause him any trouble."
Those people came to curry favor with her for the sake of benefits.
She doesn't cause trouble for her grandson.
Lu Qiniang smiled and said, "You old lady are very smart. You can live to be a hundred years old."
"No," Grandma Sun waved her hands. "I'm blind and deaf. My only concern now is to see Shunzi get married. You said there are many suitors, but I don't think any of them are suitable for me."
"Take your time to see each other. Brother Shunzi has made great progress. Are you still worried about not having a granddaughter-in-law?"
"Well," said Mrs. Sun, "I don't have any requirements. I just hope that the person is kind and capable."
If Lu Qiniang didn't have a husband, she actually wanted to match Lu Qiniang with Sun Shun, so that she could rest in peace even if she died.
Lu Qiniang smiled and comforted her, saying that there would always be a granddaughter-in-law.
Grandma Sun suddenly cursed again, "Zhang Heyao is not a good person."
Seeing that the maids and the old women were still there, Lu Qiniang hurriedly said, "Old lady, let's not mention him. Never again! He treated me badly, but he is Shunzi's superior. You should be more careful with your words and don't embarrass Shunzi."
"He just can't do it." Grandma Sun said angrily, "He actually wants Shunzi to marry into my family! He's my only grandson, and the Sun family only has this little blood left. How can he have the nerve to bring it up! Why doesn't he just marry into my family? I think he's probably trying to curry favor with someone by using Shunzi."
Let Sun Shun marry into the family?
Lu Qiniang didn't expect this and didn't know what to say, so she could only comfort Grandma Sun.
In fact, what she wanted to say was that if the other person was a good person, it would be okay to marry into her family.
However, the old woman hated this so much that she didn't dare mention it. She just went along with what Grandma Sun said and comforted her with a few words.
"I've told Shunzi that if he dares to marry into my family, I won't let him go even if I become a ghost!"
After hearing this, Lu Qiniang felt uncomfortable.
She also wants Daya to find a son-in-law.
In the future, the family of the person she likes will probably oppose it so strongly.
Because of this worry, Lu Qiniang was a little depressed when she returned home.
Xiao Yan saw it, but waited until bedtime to ask.
For Xiao Yan, what he looks forward to most every day is the time he spends sleeping in the same bed at night.
It was just the two of them, with no one else to disturb them, so they could talk freely.
Although they couldn't say much, Lu Qiniang fell asleep.
For Lu Qinniang, her daily routine probably ended completely when she lay down.
No internal friction, no entanglement, just put the pillow down and sleep whenever you want.
No matter how big the problem is, it should not be delayed overnight.
Xiao Yan thought, this is the life that many people dream of.
Today, Lu Qiniang did not fall asleep immediately, obviously she was worried.
"What are you thinking about?" Xiao Yan asked, "I see you look very worried."
"Is it that obvious?" Lu Qiniang rubbed her face and sighed, "I'm thinking about Daya's marriage."
I can't bear to marry her off because Daya is too opinionated and I'm afraid it will be difficult for her to integrate into a new family and be controlled by others.
But if he were to marry into her family, he would have to lower his standards, which would be even more unfair to her.
Xiao Yan said, "Da Ya is only fourteen this year, so wait a little longer. In fact, many families will keep their daughters until they are sixteen or seventeen. Good things are never too late, but the worst thing is to marry the wrong man."
"You're right." Lu Qiniang said, "But where can I find it?"
"Leave it to me." Xiao Yan volunteered.
"You? You can't."
Xiao Yan: "...I think I'm okay."
"You can't." Lu Qiniang said, "The families you knew in the past were all too powerful. We can't reach them. I think it would be best to find someone who has no parents, is ambitious, and is not poor..."
Xiao Yan thought silently in his heart, is this the next Zhang Heyao?
His virtuous wife helps him achieve his ambitions, but when he gets ashore, he kills his beloved first?
Sometimes the faces of poor people who become rich suddenly become uglier than those who are born into wealth.
"There's such a thing," Xiao Yan said, "There are many people in the army. I'll ask someone to keep an eye on her."
"That's fine. We won't marry someone above our station, and we can't let Daya suffer any injustice." Lu Qiniang reminded.
She almost lived like that, wanting to have better food and clothes. She earned a fortune for her daughter so that she could feel more comfortable.
Life is short, and being comfortable is the most important thing.
"By the way, Xiao Yan," Lu Qiniang said with a smile, "I wasn't familiar with you before, so I was embarrassed to ask you—"
Xiao Yan thought, when we first met, you took off my clothes and bathed me. Was there ever a time when we were not familiar with each other?
