Granny Qin took over the conversation, "I have already found a husband's family. The betrothal gift is one thousand yuan. The man's family will come to pick me up in a few days."
Lin Shiwei was secretly delighted and tried to calm herself down. "Is that so? They are all poor people. I will help her with her dowry. The sooner she gets married, the better. She will not be drowned by the spit of the villagers."
Mrs. Qin was a little confused by the Ye family's tricks and didn't understand why they cared so much about the marriage, but she didn't think too much about it. After all, she could collect two more dowries, so she made a lot of money from this marriage.
Qin Guosheng is happy to establish a relationship with the Ye family. He wants to make friends with the rich and powerful, but only a fool would not do that. He promises to finalize the marriage tomorrow.
Ye Youmeng reminded Aunt Guihua, "Aunt Guihua, the marriage is done, you have to help me discipline my sister-in-law. Don't let her always go back to her parents' home and destroy the relationship between me and Pei Chuan. It's best to let her stop going out and causing trouble."
Lin Shiwei seemed to be helping the Qin family manage their daughter-in-law, but in fact, she was using the Qin family to imprison Gu Wanwan. "Give birth to a child early and tie up Gu Xiaomei early. With a child, Gu Xiaomei can't run away. If she gets angry, just lock her up for a few months. Don't be afraid that she won't be obedient."
Aunt Guihua agreed readily and couldn't wait to find a matchmaker to propose marriage.
After Gu Peichuan learned about the Ye family's dirty thoughts from his sister, he truly regretted dating the mama's girl.
Ye Youmeng is so arrogant. Why does she think he will come back to her? After the Ye family sold his sister, she naively wants to get back together with him?
She is just dreaming and wants to use Ke Qi to make him jealous. Haha, she really doesn't understand his character.
Gu Peichuan has always been a man of revenge, and since Ye Youmeng likes to play with ambiguity, he doesn't mind helping her to solidify the relationship.
So, Gu Peichuan went out specially, and when he came back, almost the entire Shuiqing Brigade knew that Ye Youmeng and Ke Qi were officially dating.
Someone went to ask Ke Qi about it. Ke Qi did not try to avoid suspicion at all. Instead, he admitted it. "Meng Meng is shy and doesn't want to make it public. After we leave, I will treat the villagers to a glass of wedding wine."
Coupled with Song Shuyu's secret instigation, Ye Youmeng and the Ye couple's reputation in the Shuiqing Brigade was completely ruined.
Ever since Ye Youmeng left Qin's house, she found that the villagers looked at her like a scumbag who had cheated on her loved ones.
"Gu Zhiqing treated her so well, and she offended the captain's family for him. She is such an ungrateful ungrateful person, and she is actually in cahoots with the captain. I wonder what she is up to."
"I just saw the Ye family coming to our house with gifts. Are their relationship so good?"
"Why is it bad? They teamed up to bully the Gu family brothers and sisters. Ye Zhiqing is repaying kindness with enmity. She is a heartless woman. She just broke up yesterday and confirmed her relationship with Ke Qi today. The two of them are so clingy and sticky. It makes me sick."
"I saw it yesterday, too. They were holding hands, talking and laughing. How shameless."
“…”
Facing the pointing and criticizing of the surrounding villagers, Ye Youmeng panicked and retorted, "I'm not dating Ke Qi, what are you talking about? I just want to piss off Gu Peichuan, I didn't abandon him."
In the eyes of the villagers, explanation is a cover-up. "You abandoned him, you are a heartless woman who despises the poor and loves the rich. Ke Qi has admitted that he is in a relationship, how dare you pretend to be single? With us here, you can't have two girlfriends at the same time and deceive Gu Zhiqing's feelings again."
"You broke up yesterday, and the villagers were all witnesses. Your parents also support you and Ke Qi. Now, from now on, each family should be more careful and not look for a wife who is fickle, restless, and loves to mess around."
Ye Youmeng was so anxious that her eyes turned red. No matter what she explained, the villagers refused to listen.
Ye's parents didn't say anything. Anyway, the fact was set in stone. After dealing with Gu Wanwan and Lin Xueyao, they would leave the Shuiqing Brigade. What the villagers said was none of their business. They would just endure it for a few more days.
Ye Youmeng didn't want to listen to the villagers, so she ran to the field to find Gu Peichuan, "Gu Peichuan, Ke Qi and I are not in a relationship. He is the fiancé my parents like. We..."
Gu Peichuan interrupted her coldly, "You are dating, congratulations, Ke Qi is very generous and specially invited us to a wedding banquet before leaving."
"Listen to my explanation, I..." Ye Youmeng was about to explain when she was immediately pulled away by Song Shuyu.
Song Shuyu brainwashed her with a twisted logic, "Mengmeng, don't condescend. Have you forgotten that you want to control Gu Peichuan? If you explain, he will only look down on you and think that you can only have him. He is just jealous and angry now."
Ye Youmeng stopped listening after hearing this. Mengmeng was right. She needed to make Gu Peichuan angry and teach him a lesson so that he would put her and the Ye family first in his heart in the future.
As soon as the Ye family left, Aunt Guihua went to find a matchmaker.
At noon that day, Gu Wanwan prepared lunch, including braised pork ribs, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, stir-fried pork with green peppers, and a hot and sour soup.
Gu Peichuan and Sheng Chuxuan came back from work and took the twins to wash their hands, and the three adults and two children prepared to eat.
The matchmaker happened to come to the door at this time. She was a distant relative of Aunt Guihua, an outsider invited from the next village. She thought she could turn the dead into the living with her clever mouth. "Hey, is this Gu Zhiqing's sister? I am the cousin of the team leader's wife, Qian Matchmaker from the next village."
Why did they invite the neighboring village? Because the matchmaker in this village did not dare to offend the great god of wealth Gu Wanwan and refused to be a matchmaker for the Qin family.
Matchmaker Qian looked at Gu Wanwan from head to toe as if she were a commodity, and then her eyes fell on the food on the table. She came at mealtime on purpose, intending to eat for free and act as a matchmaker at the same time.
Two meat dishes with white rice, she was so greedy...
If Gu Xiaomei was sensible enough, she should invite her to have dinner together at this moment.
But no, they just treat themselves as air.
"Ahem, um, I'm Aunt Guihua, your future mother-in-law's elder."
Now that things have come to this, if she is not invited to the table for dinner, then she... will have to shamelessly go to the table herself. After all, she is the elder, so there is no reason to let her wait in vain. She will have to tell Aunt Guihua later that the new daughter-in-law should not be spoiled.
Gu Wanwan didn't give her face and took a bite of rice. "Why did the matchmaker come to us? Didn't you find out in advance that we have a grudge against Aunt Guihua?"
Matchmaker Qian choked, then smiled and said, "There is no overnight hatred between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. Let me, your aunt, be the peacemaker. For my sake, how about reconciling with your mother-in-law?"
As she spoke, she took the initiative to sit in an empty seat, "Little sister Gu, Auntie knows you are sensible, shouldn't you fill my stomach with rice first? Auntie, I haven't eaten since this morning, let me fill my stomach first before talking about marriage. It's such a waste if I don't finish all the dishes, pack them up for me to take home later, just in time for your cousins to have a taste."
Gu Peichuan said disdainfully, "You might as well pack up all the food on the table."
Matchmaker Qian was really bold. She stared at the food greedily and even wanted to take away all the bowls and plates. "That's great. Find me a basin to put it in."
Sheng Chuxuan couldn't stand it anymore, so she rushed to the small kitchen, scooped up a basin of water and poured it on Matchmaker Qian.
Matchmaker Qian was completely disappointed. "What are you doing? I am your elder!"
