Chapter 190 Commander Duan: Say it again?

When Cheng Xueru expressed her thoughts, Wang Ziru was stunned.

The girl was not like those shy girls, but asked her sincerely if they could consider a marriage between her and Zhai Qingsong.

"Sister Ziru, you and your husband are the closest people to Brother Zhai, so you should be able to make the decision for him, right?" Cheng Xueru blushed, and in her panic she almost threw the spatula in her hand into the stove and burned.

Seeing Wang Ziru's stunned look, Cheng Xueru thought that Wang Ziru might not agree to this marriage.

After a while, Wang Ziru's mind became completely clear.

The first thing she did was to hold the girl's hand, her eyes reddened, "Don't just say I don't dare to think about this. My eldest brother, who is such an honest man, would definitely not even dare to hear about it."

"Why don't you dare to listen?" The girl blushed, her eyes flashing with stubbornness.

"You don't understand this. Although my eldest brother has a good temper, is good at housework, and especially likes children! But he is divorced, and his ex-wife was childless, so he adopted a girl. He originally hoped to raise the child himself, but the child was taken to the new in-laws' home by my sister-in-law..."

After a pause, Wang Ziru said, "He feels so insignificant, how can he be worthy of a good girl like Miss Xueru?"

Cheng Xueru felt a little heartbroken when she saw Zhai Qingsong.

Somehow, that honest and steady face can't be erased from my mind.

"So tell me, what should we do about this?" The girl felt that she had thought it through very clearly, so she took the initiative to ask.

Wang Ziru was very surprised that her elder brother had won the girl's affection by his kindness and honesty.

Encountering such a good marriage, she and Zhai Ximo would raise their hands in approval.

The two of them stood in the stove and talked for a long time. Wang Ziru did not hide anything and told the girl about her uncle's situation and the Zhai family's situation.

"We are an ordinary family. If my eldest brother can marry a good girl like you, our whole family will be happy! Feel free to put forward any conditions you have..." This time, Wang Ziru attached much more importance to her eldest uncle's marriage than her own younger brother.

Only by helping his uncle get married and have a stable home, Zhai Ximo could work with peace of mind.

Seeing Wang Ziru's attitude, Cheng Xueru's face gradually calmed down. "So, do you think we should ask Brother Zhai himself about this matter? He is so kind, he probably won't despise me because I am a widow, but we should still ask him."

"Wait a minute, I'll call my brother in."

Wang Ziru went to the yard outside and called her uncle into the stove room, and asked him what he thought in front of the girl.

He also laughed and said, "Originally I had no plan to come to Li Village today, but when I was leaving, my elder brother said he wanted to come and see you. It seems that my elder brother has you in his heart too."

Zhai Qingsong never thought that he really had any connection with Miss Xueru.

His face turned red, his eyes slightly lowered, and he didn't dare to look at the girl even once.

Wang Ziru cleared her throat and said, "Since both of you are willing to do so, I will make the decision and arrange your engagement."

“…”

The two stood face to face, but they both raised their eyes excitedly at the same time.

Then he quickly lowered his eyes.

Cheng Xueru was cheerful and generous. "I think if both of us feel there is no problem, we don't need to get engaged, so we can just get married, okay?"

Recently, since Peng Zhengyu left, she also felt that many ladies in the village looked at her with sympathy.

She couldn't stand being looked at with pity and sympathy.

Unable to bear any more blows, after some thought, she decided to take the initiative to propose marriage to Zhai Qingsong...

Her parents are both military personnel. Since they left, she has had no choice but to grow up strong and take good care of her grandfather.

So she didn't care about shame, "Sister Ziru, do you think I'm a shameless woman?"

"No! I'm just worried that you won't truly accept my elder brother so quickly. Since you can make the decision to get married, let's discuss the marriage." Wang Ziru was so happy that she couldn't contain herself.

The eldest brother was truly blessed. He followed his younger brother from thousands of miles away to join the army and almost starved to death while bringing his children with him.

But I didn't expect that a blessing would come out of a disaster.

They originally thought that after the divorce, the eldest brother would live alone for a long time.

It seems that God has his own arrangements.

"Now do I have to come forward and formally propose to your grandfather? And then discuss the marriage?" Wang Ziru was extremely happy and held on to this marriage arrangement for her uncle.

Cheng Xueru nodded slightly, with a ripple in her heart, "Well, I mentioned this to Grandpa, and he didn't say anything, but don't worry, Grandpa has always loved me, and he will definitely treat Brother Zhai the same way, instead of treating him as a helpless son-in-law."

The Zhai family is such a poor family, so what if my uncle can become a son-in-law in such a simple father-in-law's family!

It's like picking up a pretty daughter-in-law for nothing.

"You two are really destined to be husband and wife in your previous life! I'll go out and talk to your grandfather, and you should discuss the details of how to arrange the wedding and what dowry you need to buy." Wang Ziru patted the girl's hot hands, and like a matchmaker, she smiled and went out of the oven to find Grandpa Cheng to propose marriage.

The room suddenly became quiet.

Without anyone else present, Cheng Xueru was crying because she was attending the army's condolence meeting. She asked in a hoarse voice: "Brother Zhai, do you have anything to say?"

I just called him in, but he didn't say a word.

Zhai Qingsong felt extremely hot all over and was so excited that he couldn't utter a word.

After a long while, he hurriedly said, "I, I... will love you like my third brother does, and earn money to support you and grandpa."

Zhuang Jiahan was finally forced to speak out his true feelings, which made the girl feel very relieved.

Cheng Xueru blushed and nodded slightly, looking at the man seriously, "I know your current situation. If we get married, I won't make excessive demands. You can rest assured about this, Brother Zhai."

At this moment, Zhai Qingsong clearly felt that he liked being depended on by the little woman in front of him.

So he had to find something to do as soon as possible to earn money to support his family.

"Also, Peng Zhengyu and I only got a marriage certificate, but we didn't consummate our marriage." Although the girl explained, it was too straightforward and she blushed.

Looking at the girl in front of him with a red face, Zhai Qingsong said foolishly: "I was married before, not innocent..."

"I know that. It's not like he's been fooling around with other women. But what do you mean by saying that?" Cheng Xueru glanced at him quietly, wanting to see how he would react.

As a result, Zhai Qingsong was so anxious that he broke out in a sweat.

Fortunately, Wang Ziru's laughter came in from outside the door, as if deliberately reminding them.

Wang Ziru returned to the kitchen with a smile on her face, took Cheng Xueru's soft hand, and said with a smile: "Your grandfather agreed, and he also hopes that you two will hold the wedding as soon as possible. He doesn't want to see you, a girl, living a hard life supporting the family."

"Well, should we invite some military guests to the wedding?" Cheng Xueru didn't bother to exchange glances with the man.

"Grandpa meant that you don't need to buy these things. First of all, you have a sewing machine at home. He just wanted to make the villagers look up to my brother and give him a gift of one or two hundred yuan."

"Ah? But where can Brother Zhai come up with so much money now?" Cheng Xueru was shocked and a little embarrassed, but she also understood her grandfather's painstaking efforts.

Everyone in Li Village is watching. If the Cheng family doesn't pay a penny for the son-in-law they recruit, there will definitely be a lot of gossip in the future.

Wang Ziru smiled nonchalantly, "The Zhai family should pay for the bride price! We will find a way, just prepare for the marriage."

In order to allow the eldest brother to get married smoothly, the couple had to tighten their belts in the past few months.

Go borrow some money to get married first, so as to avoid unnecessary trouble.

Not to mention that Cheng Xueru is so capable and pretty, there must be many soldiers in the army chasing after her.

Even though she is a widow now, she is a pretty little widow.

When Bao Er heard that his uncle was going to marry Aunt Xueru, he ran around the yard happily and refused to follow his mother to the town. "My uncle and I will stay at Aunt Xueru's house and help her with work."

"Then you have to be obedient and return to the troops early this afternoon."

Wang Ziru was so excited that she wanted to sing a song. She walked out of Li Village with a smile on her face and humming a happy song.

I lowered my head and headed straight towards the town, intending to walk there to buy things and take a look at the scale of several nearby factories.

Without noticing, a military green jeep slowly drove over.

Duan Yanzhi put one hand on the car window and just lit a cigarette. When he raised his head, he saw a very familiar figure on the road ahead, jumping like a child.

"Eh? Isn't that my young wife? She looks like she's going to the town?"

Duan Yanzhi ordered the guards to slow down the car.

The car slowly drove past Wang Ziru and slowly stopped. Duan Yanzhi stuck his head out of the window and said jokingly in his characteristic rough voice, "You sing very well. Why am I so happy every time I see you?"

Wang Ziru was startled and quickly came back to her senses from her joy. Seeing the man sitting in the car, her bright eyes were stunned, "Isn't this the ready-made God of Wealth?"

Originally, Wang Ziru didn’t want to have much contact with him, but now she has other ideas.

She quickly ran to the car window and asked with a chuckle, "Where are you going, Commander?"

"Where else can I go? Back to Kun District. Why, do you want to go to Kun District with me?" The rough man leaned lazily against the car window, but he had the Duan family education since childhood and had the unique dignity of a Duan family man.

Wang Ziru pouted unhappily and said, "Why would I go to Kunqu with you?!"

"You can take me for a walk, right?"

"That's great, get in the car."

Duan Yanzhi had already opened the back door as he spoke, but the young wife ran to the other side of the back seat, opened the door and climbed in.

Seeing his young wife swiftly climb into the car and sit next to him, the rough man, holding a cigarette in his mouth, narrowed his narrow eyes and asked, "Are you going to the town to buy something?"

"Yes! Oh, by the way, Commander, I told you before that if you come to my house for dinner you have to pay for it. I hope you haven't forgotten this?" Wang Ziru clasped her hands with a smile.

Duan Yanzhi looked at her calmly, and rubbed his wife's head with his palm very naturally, "Meal money? Say it again?!"

He lived to be over 30 years old, and he had never experienced the absurd situation of eating someone else's meal and then being chased after by others to beg for money.

Wang Ziru also knew that she was being abrupt, so she said in a serious tone, "Actually, I want to borrow some money from you, Commander. Your Duan family is very rich, right? Can you lend me some money? I will pay you back every month when my husband gets his salary."

"What do you want to borrow money for?" The rough man looked at the young wife indifferently, "Aren't you going to the town? Are you going to the town to borrow money from someone?"
