No family is rich now. It is rumored that Wen Wan asked for a high amount of compensation for breaking off the engagement. Wen Wan can forget about getting married in the future.
Father Chen looked at Mother Chen's self-righteous look and slapped her in the face. "You are a troublemaker, a spendthrift woman, you are so careless with your words and your brain is full of tofu dregs."
"That's enough. Are you still complaining that it's not messy enough?" Chen Jianbing growled in frustration.
Seeing Chen Jianbing's sudden change of expression, everyone in the yard was shocked.
Chen Jianbing took a deep breath and frowned, "Mom, I'll go propose tomorrow. I don't have much vacation time left. I have to go back to the army in three days."
After saying that, he turned around and went back to his room, slamming the door.
"Mom... wow wow wow... I'm scared to death." Chen Xiaobao, with a runny nose, threw himself into Qian Zhaodi's arms and cried.
Qian Zhaodi soothed him with a trembling voice: "Xiaobao, don't cry, mom is here..." It was also the first time she saw the third child get angry.
"San'er, did you get shot just now?" Chen Jianmin muttered in a low voice.
In the kitchen, Zhao Guizhen glanced at her two children and breathed a sigh of relief when she was sure they were not frightened.
She knew that there would be a lot of noise at home these days, so she took her children with her to avoid it if possible.
Chen Hongxia quietly pulled Chen's mother into a corner and asked, "Mom, was it you who shouted when you asked Dad to give you money?"
Mother Chen covered her face and nodded.
"Oh, you don't know, there were a lot of people gathered in front of Wen Wan's house watching..." Chen Hongxia quickly recounted what happened when the engagement was broken off.
Mother Chen gnashed her teeth in anger, "Bitch, you are worthless, you deserve to be unwanted..."
…
The next morning, it was just dawn.
“Bang, bang, bang…Sister-in-law, open the door?”
When Ding Guihua heard the knock on the door, she stood up eagerly, "Mom, I'll go see who's here?"
As soon as she opened the door, she saw that it was Zhang, the famous matchmaker in the neighborhood, and her mouth almost stretched to her ears.
"Guihua, congratulations." Matchmaker Zhang's face was full of smiles.
"Hahaha, Aunt Zhang, what should I be happy about?" Ding Guihua pretended not to understand and led the person into the house.
Matchmaker Zhang smiled without saying a word and walked into the house.
"Brother Liu, sister-in-law, I'm here to tell you good news."
Seeing that the Liu family was all confused, Matchmaker Zhang sat down next to Old Lady Liu and said, "Sister-in-law, I'm here today for a serious matter. I want to find a husband for your Xiaoling."
Old Lady Liu turned to look at her eldest daughter-in-law and looked inquiringly: It was you who called her here.
Li Xiaohua shook her head, feeling puzzled. Her sister-in-law had said that they should let the situation wait and see before discussing the bride price. At that time, the difference would be split between her and her sister-in-law.
"Ahem..." Matchmaker Zhang cleared her throat, "Sister-in-law, I'm talking about Chen Jianbing from the next village. He and Xiaoling are a match made in heaven."
"What?" Old Lady Liu sat up suddenly. "You...you are talking about Chen Jianbing who is serving in the army."
"Yes, it's him. His parents specifically asked me to come early to ask your family's opinion." Matchmaker Zhang nodded. "If it's suitable, we will come to propose marriage tomorrow and get married the day after tomorrow."
Two voices sounded at the same time.
"It's not appropriate." Old Master Liu roared in refusal.
"Suitable." Ding Guihua nodded and shouted.
