Chapter 260 Sun Xiaotao

Jiang Zhuzi was so anxious that he jumped up and down.

Yesterday, he persuaded his mother for a long time, even threatening to sever the mother-son relationship, before his mother nodded and agreed to go to Sunjia Village to visit Sun Xiaotao today.

Seeing that she was hesitating and mumbling something, he hurriedly urged her.

"I know, I know. Look how anxious you are. Mom has already said that we are just going to take a look."

Widow Liu couldn't persuade her son.

Worried that he really had left her, she had no choice but to compromise.

The mother and son walked to Sunjia Village on foot.

Sun Xiaotao's home is at the end of Sunjia Village.

When she arrived at the door, it was open, so Widow Liu knocked.

Someone inside immediately responded.

"Who is it——" Sun Xiaotao's mother Wang asked loudly.

She put down the clothes that were ready to dry and went to the door.

"I'm Liu from Jiangjia Village. I'm passing by here and would like to ask for a glass of water." She hadn't even found a matchmaker, so how could she say openly that she brought her son to visit a man?

I can only find a lame excuse.

"What water do you want to drink from Jiangjia Village? There is none. Eh? No, come in. I'll get you some water."

Just as Wang was about to refuse, she saw Jiang Zhuzi behind Widow Liu.

This boy often comes to the village to spy on her daughter.

She looked very familiar.

He wouldn't be bringing his mother to visit me, would he?

Thinking of this, Wang's attitude instantly became much warmer.

It was completely the opposite of the disgusted look he had just shown.

Ever since the family announced that they were asking for a dowry of five taels of silver for their daughter, the threshold that was nearly broken down by people has now been deserted, and finally someone has come to the door on his own initiative.

Wang was afraid that they would run away, so she became very attentive to them.

"Come sit in the main room. It's hot outside. I'll go get you some water."

After bringing the two of them to the main room and sitting them down.

Wang ran to the field and called the head of the household back.

Her parents-in-law passed away one after another several years ago.

Waited for a quarter of an hour.

Widow Liu finally waited for the couple to arrive.

"Oh, sorry for the long wait. I'm working in the fields. Is this Miss Liu from Jiangjia Village? The one next to you is your eldest son. He's so handsome."

Sun Cong didn't even have time to put away the hoe in his hand. He just casually put it in the main room and spoke to Widow Liu.

"Yes, I heard that your daughter is the same age as my son, so I wanted to come and see. I was worried that it would be too grand, so I didn't invite a matchmaker. I hope it won't affect you guys?"

Widow Liu sniffed.

Sun Cong's sweat smelled very bad.

Her eyes were burning with pain.

It's like being in a sheepfold.

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, wife, go get some water and call Xiao Tao over."

Sun Cong narrowed his eyes as he smiled.

Finally, the sucker came to the door.

Sun Xiaotao, who had known that someone was coming to the house, had been hiding behind the bedroom window and peeking.

"Mom, that's Jiang Zhuzi. I heard his mother is a widow. He's been slacking off all day and has no manners. He used to pester me all the time. I don't want to marry him. I want to marry someone in town."

Seeing her mother calling her with two glasses of water, Sun Xiaotao was a little resistant.

"The fact that he can come means that the betrothal gifts must have been prepared. If the clan leader hadn't said so, would we be in this situation? Do you think your mother doesn't want you to marry into the town? But there is nothing we can do about it! Go talk to Jiang Zhuzi and hook him up. Once you marry him, will he still not listen to you?

My daughter is so beautiful, she will definitely fascinate him. I see that the clothes of this widow are not patched, so she should be well-off. I just heard her say that she only has this one son. If you marry him, you will have the final say in the family sooner or later. Okay, go with me."

Ever since the incident of a woman becoming a concubine in Jiangjia Village, the clan leaders of several surrounding villages no longer allow women in their clans to become concubines.

Those who originally had this plan all gave up the idea.

If you are driven out of the tribe, what good will it be even if you give me one hundred taels?

Therefore, Sun Cong and his wife did not dare to secretly send their daughter to be a concubine.

I can only ask for more betrothal gifts.

After Wang finished speaking, she found that her daughter was still in a bad mood.

His face turned cold.

"Xiao Tao, your brother is already fourteen years old this year, and he is old enough to find a girl. If you don't get married, how can our family get the money to help your brother get married? Your four brothers all depend on you. This five taels of silver is only enough for your eldest and second brothers to get married, but what about your third and fourth brothers? Mother is looking forward to you getting married in the future and helping your mother's family more.

I have raised you for nothing. Ever since you were born, I have never treated you harshly. You are a loser, and I was reluctant to let you work in the fields. If it weren't for that damned clan leader, I would have sent you to a wealthy family to enjoy a good life. Don't blame me, I am doing this for the good of this family. Be obedient, okay?"

Wang used both coaxing and threatening.

Sun Xiaotao nodded in agreement.

"knew."

With red eyes, she followed her mother out.

"Bring these two glasses of water to them." When they arrived outside the main hall, Wang put the tray in her daughter's hand and whispered to her.

"Oh." Sun Xiaotao obediently carried the tray in.

First, he served a cup to Widow Liu.

Then he put a cup in Jiang Zhuzi's hand.

The water inside was obviously cool, but Jiang Zhuzi felt like he had touched a stove that had just been lit. His ears turned red and his hands were shaking.

The couple saw it and looked at each other.

Curl up the corners of your mouth.

"Mom and dad want to have a chat with your Aunt Liu, so you guys should stop listening. Xiaotao, take Zhuzi to the backyard."

The two nodded with different expressions.

Widow Liu, who was sitting on the stool, turned pale the moment she saw Sun Xiaotao.

She is really a vixen, no wonder she has won her son's heart.

She will never be allowed to marry this kind of person.

But Jiang Zhuzi had no idea what his mother was thinking and thought he was going to marry Sun Xiaotao soon.

When the two of them arrived at the backyard, Jiang Zhuzi couldn't wait to say, "Xiao Tao, I've liked you for a long time. Will you marry me? When you marry me, I will treat you well and promise to listen to you. I will do whatever you ask me to do."

"Don't talk nonsense in broad daylight. I don't want to marry you." Sun Xiaotao looked down on him more and more.

"You must be saying this because you are shy. I know. Don't worry, I have already told my mother that the five taels of silver gift will not be less than a penny. As long as you marry me, I promise that you will not be wronged. My mother only has me as her son, and she listens to me. As for me, I listen to you. From now on, you will be the manager of the household."

Widow Liu in the main room didn't know that her eldest son had secretly handed over the housekeeping power to Sun Xiaotao.

"Hmph, who wants to take care of your family?" Sun Xiaotao suddenly felt a little confused.

In the past, she always worried that she would be bullied by her mother-in-law.

If what Jiang Zhuzi said is true, then it seems like marrying her wouldn't be a bad idea.

It's obvious that this idiot is easy to control. As long as she smiles, Jiang Zhuzi guarantees that he will give her whatever she wants.
