The matter was settled. Qiao Jiangxin and Zhou Xiaolei agreed to come to him tomorrow morning with the money to handle the formalities, and then headed towards Gaoshi Village.
Chen Wenxiu was drying clothes at the door while muttering bitterly, "The Qiao family is really getting better and better. They bring so much goods from the city in just ten days or half a month. They are from the same village and they are making money from us. They are really evil...
It’s still the city’s climate and soil that nourish people, Qiao Daya looks different every time she comes...”
Chen Wende, who was sitting at the door with Chen Youliang peeling corn kernels, looked up and asked, "What did you say? Qiao Daya is here?"
There was a subtle hint of excitement in his voice.
"I'm asking you a question?" Seeing that Chen Wenxiu didn't say anything, Chen Wende asked.
Chen Wenxiu was a little afraid of Chen Wende, so she turned around and said carefully, "Here they come. The Qiao family's Laizi brothers went to the city to buy goods. Every time they go to get goods, they never pass by the village entrance, but take the small road directly to the north of the village.
Just now when I was washing clothes, I heard someone say that the ox cart was loaded with goods, and Qiao Daya was also here. ”
Chen Wende looked down at his own hands, his eyes darkening.
It was not easy to peel the dried corn cobs. His hands had not done such rough work for a long time. After only two days of peeling, his thumbs were already sore.
Chen Wenxiu was also thinking the same thing.
My mother wanted my eldest brother to marry Qiao Daya, but he went out with that bitch Chi Suzhen.
If the one who was going to marry in was Qiao Daya, her family would never be like this.
What's more, now that her mother is gone, most of the housework falls on her. Chen Wenxiu has never wanted a mother or a sister-in-law so badly.
Thinking that her elder brother and Chi Suzhen had already divorced, Chen Wenxiu whispered tentatively, "Brother, when mom was still alive, she loved Sister Daya very much and wanted to marry her to be our sister-in-law."
Chen Wende was silent for a moment and continued to peel corn without saying anything.
Chen Youliang, who was sitting opposite him, could no longer remain calm. He also tried to test him, "Wende, your mother is gone now, and you and Chi Suzhen, that unlucky woman, are divorced. Your family needs a woman to take charge of the household, so your marriage should be put back on the agenda.
You said you are not young anymore. When your mother was alive, you didn’t have a grandchild. We watched Daya grow up. I know you are well-educated and have high aspirations, but you also saw that we country people are not suitable to marry town girls…”
"Wenxiu is right. When your mother was alive, she loved Daya. I think that child is also beautiful. If you can marry her, your mother will rest in peace in the underworld."
Chen Wende paused as he rubbed the corn. "I know everything you said."
Chen Youliang and Chen Wenxiu looked at each other. What does "have a number" mean?
Are you willing to marry her, or are you unwilling to marry her?
Chen Wenxiu was young after all, so she couldn't help but ask, "Brother, you..."
Chen Wende seemed to know what she wanted to ask and interrupted her, "If you have the time, hurry up and cook. It's already dark and you're still gossiping about other people's affairs."
Chen Wenxiu choked and turned around to cook with a look of dissatisfaction on her face.
In the evening, Chen Wende was thinking about the current situation of the Chen family in his study.
He still has to continue his writing career and make a living with his brain.
He needed a wife who could allow him to write with peace of mind, take care of him, and help him stabilize the family.
What's more, he had feelings for Qiao Jiangxin in his previous life. She had taken care of him for more than ten years, knew his habits and love, and they also raised a son.
