When Zhong Xiong got engaged, Ma Zhao did not cause any trouble. He just followed Fei Sansao and asked her to find one for him. His only requirement was that the family must be reasonable, and he didn't care about anything else.
Mrs. Fei San went to her mother-in-law and asked, "Mom, what do you say?"
Mother Fei is quite optimistic about her two sons-in-law. Although they are a bit older, they are more caring when they are older!
Isn't Wang Qiao really good at taking care of his daughter? He helps her pick up food when she eats, even at her parents' house! Is he worried that she'll be embarrassed to pick up food?
The dish was placed far away, so he stood up, put it into his eldest daughter's bowl, and told her to eat more.
My family saw it with their own eyes and kept it in mind.
Now, here comes another one who "walks into a trap", ahem, this is what my old man said.
Then you must catch it and not let go.
"Let me ask your dad!"
"good!"
Mrs. Fei San walked out of her mother-in-law's room and said to Ma Zhao, who was waiting to hear her words, "My mother-in-law said that she and my father-in-law should discuss it. They have been in the village for a long time and know each family's temperament better than I do."
Ma Zhao immediately clasped his hands together and said, "Thank you! Thank you! Third sister-in-law, thank you for your trouble. I will give you a bigger red envelope."
Mrs. Fei nodded with a smile. Except for Wu Haotian who was more steady, these people were all like children, without any unnecessary twists and turns.
Mother Fei called her old man into the house, and Fei Changrong asked, "What's going on? Are the guests still here?"
"It's the guests' business!"
"Then tell me."
"That new guy, Ma Zhao, who arrived today, I'm asking the third brother's family to introduce him to someone. The only requirement is that his family be reasonable. They're actually interested in a family like ours. Otherwise, can Zhong Xiong propose marriage himself?"
"Yes, you're right. Zhong Xiong isn't that stupid after all!"
"What's so stupid about him? I think he's much smarter than Ma Zhao. He even knew to hide it from his brothers and take the initiative to attack our Xue'er."
Fei Changrong chuckled, "Are you praising him or insulting him? I know you can't bear to part with Xue'er, but isn't this just an engagement? You're going to marry her in two years? He's already 28, and he's willing to wait two years. That's a sign of his sincerity."
Mother Fei finally felt relieved. Her eldest daughter got engaged last week, and her youngest daughter got engaged this week. She was indeed feeling a little upset.
"Well, which girl do you think is suitable for Ma Zhao? I see that they are all people who know how to love their wives. They have been treated poorly since childhood and they all hope to have a warm home. That's why our family attracted them."
Fei Changrong said with regret: "If I had known earlier, I would have had another child, maybe it would have been a girl, and I would have kept all these good young men in my family."
Mother Fei raised her hand and pinched his ear. "What are you talking about, you shameless old man? Quickly think of a suitable family! That Ma Zhao comes to this door every now and then to take a look, don't you see?"
"Then why are you pulling my ears? If he sees it, how can I still have the nerve to do it?"
Mother Fei immediately put down her hand and said, "Who told you to talk so much nonsense?"
Fei Changrong put aside his joking thoughts, thought for a moment, and said, "What do you think of Zi Han?"
Mother Fei paused, "Why would you think of her? Although her family is all sensible, she has a heavy burden!"
Fei Changrong nodded. "I know, but if she doesn't find someone as capable as Ma Zhao, she will definitely remain single for the rest of her life. My cousin's family will feel guilty to death."
"Are you sure she'll agree?"
"Give it a try! She's just a person, she has no money, and she only helps with housework. If you ask for a higher betrothal gift, it will also be a help to her brother!"
Mother Fei hesitated, "I'd better ask Ma Zhao first. If he agrees, I'll ask him again."
"Okay! Go talk to Ma Zhao!"
Ma Zhao saw Mama Fei come out and approached her happily, "Auntie, have you guys discussed it?"
Mother Fei took him to sit aside and said, "Son, your aunt has discussed this with your uncle. In this village, there are very few families that are sensible and reasonable. Only our family can live together without splitting up. Too many other families fight and split up after getting married."
Ma Zhao nodded immediately, "Yes, that's why we particularly like the atmosphere in your home."
Mother Fei sighed softly, "There's a family in the village whose daughter is 21 years old, but she still refuses to see her husband or get married. Her father had an accident a few years ago and is paralyzed in bed.
She was in junior high school at the time and had very good grades. She had a good chance of getting into high school and college. Everyone in the village was hoping to have a college student!
Unfortunately, after her father got into trouble, she had to drop out of school and stay at home to take care of her father with her mother. Her younger brother is only 17 years old this year and is in high school. He has good grades and his teacher said he can be admitted to university.
The mother and daughter worked tirelessly, busy in the fields and at home, just to support a college or junior college student.
I also earn money to buy medicine for my paralyzed cousin. My niece said that if you think she is a burden to her family, she will never marry, just to repay her parents' kindness.
Ma Zhao felt sorry for the girl after hearing this.
"What conditions does she want?"
"She said that even if she gets married, she will still take care of her family until her brother can support the family. Only then will she feel at ease. Otherwise, she will remain single until her brother gets married and starts a family."
"Then how much money can her family make all year round?"
"About two hundred yuan! Her father's medicine is quite expensive, and his brother needs money for school. If he passes the exam, he'll have to pay for tuition."
Earning more than 200 yuan a year through hard work was a lot for them in the past, and it is still a lot for people in rural areas today.
However, to me now, their hard work is so humble, and the money they earn with hard work may not even be enough to buy a piece of clothing that Zhou Xiang wants!
"Auntie, this matter is of great importance. I need to ask my brothers. After all, we are a big family. If I become a burden, I will feel sorry for everyone.
So, I'll go back and ask around, and consult the elders' opinions. I'll bring back the rest of the news, Wang Qiao. After all, he brings Fei Yan back every day."
The boy bought a 28-inch truck specifically to give to his girlfriend.
"Okay! I'll wait for Wangqiao's reply."
Mother Fei nodded. Ma Zhao was a careful person. If things got complicated, he would go back and ask.
So, when Zhou Xiang just got home, he saw Ma Zhao with a serious face, who was sending his mother back.
Zhou wanted to ask his mother, "What happened to him?"
Mother Zhou shook her head. "I don't know either. He's been like this all the way."
Ma Zhao spoke up and told everything that happened today.
"Aunt Jiang, Zhou Xiang, what do you think?"
Zhou's mother really didn't expect that Ma Zhao and the old sister-in-law of the Fei family were talking about this matter.
"Ma Zhao, the saying 'help in emergencies, not in poverty' has been passed down since ancient times, and it makes perfect sense. You can't make a major decision based on sympathy or heroism."
