Chapter 254: Whatever You Want
It was already dark, but Zhuang Ruman hadn't returned yet.
Song did not dare to eat before Zhuang Yuanzhong and Zhuang Qinghe. She just waited in the yard, looking out from the gate from time to time.
Although the moon was big at that moment and the road was bright, there was no one in sight.
"Why hasn't Dad come back yet? I'm starving." Zhuang Qinghe muttered to himself, touching his empty stomach. Then he didn't care anymore and just reached out to take the steamed bread to eat.
Song was also very hungry at this moment, so she also took the steamed bread to eat, but she said, "Wait a little longer, I guess it will be soon."
"If he sees you guys eating without waiting for him when he comes back, he'll probably get angry again. If you're really hungry, just eat some steamed bread instead of watery food."
If there was one or half a steamed bread missing, Zhuang Rumen would not count them again, but if there was less porridge, he could tell at a glance that he had not had his meal yet.
The Song family had tried this many times and thought it was a good idea.
"I got it." Zhuang Qinghe curled her lips and just ate the steamed bread, not daring to touch the cucumber dishes.
"Mom, what did Dad do? Why didn't he come back so late?" Zhuang Yuanzhong asked.
"I don't know. Your father didn't tell me either." Song shook her head.
"Could it be..." Zhuang Yuanzhong glanced at Zhuang Qinghe, "Could it be that he went to arrange his sister's marriage?"
"Don't talk nonsense!" Zhuang Qinghe's face suddenly turned dark.
Originally, Zhuang Rumen looked down upon all the marriage proposals proposed by the matchmaker during this period. Zhuang Qinghe secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that if this matter could not be accomplished, she still had hope. She waited for Zhuang Wencheng to come back, and then she went to find Zhuang Wencheng to express her feelings, asking him to propose to her family as soon as possible, so that she could be completely relieved.
Zhuang Qinghe had very good plans and couldn't stand others talking about anything else.
"What nonsense are you talking about? If your father can really arrange your marriage, it would be a great thing!"
As soon as Song finished speaking, Zhuang Ruman walked into the yard from outside.
He reeked of alcohol, was holding a chicken in his hand, and his face was flushed.
"Come, pen the chicken first and kill it and eat it tomorrow." Zhuang Ruman said as he burped.
"This is a hen. It's great to keep it for laying eggs. It would be a pity to kill it and eat it." Song picked up the chicken wing and weighed it. "Look at its weight. It's just the right time to lay eggs."
"You are such a shallow-minded person!"
Zhuang Ruman curled his lips, his face full of contempt, "All you know is a few eggs. This chicken will be killed tomorrow!"
"I'm telling you, from now on we don't have to count eggs to make money to make a living. Let alone a few chickens, we can even afford to eat braised pork every day!"
"Boss..." Song was stunned for a moment, then reached out to touch Zhuang Ruman's forehead, "It's not hot at all..."
"If he didn't have a high fever, why did the head of the family start talking nonsense? Did he walk at night and get something dirty? Hurry up, Qinghe, go get a willow branch, dip it in some stove ash and come over so I can clean your father's back..."
"Stupid bitch!"
Zhuang Ruman couldn't help but curse, "Your eyes are shorter than that plate all day long, you don't know anything but you keep yelling, you are yelling for nothing, you have no knowledge at all, you only know how to embarrass yourself!"
"You get a high fever and talk nonsense. You attract unclean things. What do you know? You only know how to eat and drink. You never get anything done!"
Song's face turned completely red after being yelled at by Zhuang Ruman. She lowered her head, pulled her sleeves, and dared not even raise her eyelids.
Zhuang Ruman was too lazy to talk to Song and only looked at Zhuang Qinghe. He also put on a smile and casually pulled a stool over to sit on, laughing, "Qinghe, this time Dad has found a good marriage for you!"
"My family is in the tea business. They have a big yard, much bigger than ours. They have a big tea shop in the county town, and they are planning to open a shop in the provincial capital."
"I heard that this family has more than a dozen maids, some to cook, some to wash clothes, some to sweep the yard, some to serve in the house... and some to comb hair. I heard that this family has a grander house than the county magistrate's."
"If you marry her, you will have a good life in the future. Even if a little bit of money slips through your fingers, it will be enough for our family to eat and drink well all year round."
"Really?" Song was overjoyed when she heard this, and hurriedly sat down next to Zhuang Ruman, "Master, then Qinghe can become the wife of a wealthy family in the future?"
"If that's the case, can we renovate our house and buy two maids to serve us?"
"When the time comes, we'll have everything we want!"
Zhuang Ruman glanced at Song, his face full of pride, "My in-laws also said that they will cover Yuanren's tuition expenses in the future, so we don't have to worry about it anymore."
"This isn't about marrying a relative, this is about marrying the God of Wealth!"
"Qing He, don't run around these few days, and don't go to the fields to work. Stay at home. They will send a matchmaker to your house in a few days. Hurry up and get married. Don't worry too much about etiquette. Get married before the New Year."
"Get married?" Song was happy, but still stunned for a moment, "Qinghe is not old enough this year, right? Can't we get married in two years?"
"The in-laws didn't say anything, what are you yelling about?"
Zhuang Ruman shouted impatiently, "It doesn't matter if you get married early or late, you have to get married sooner or later. What's the harm if it's early? There are also child marriages, right? It's not impossible. You'll have a hard time finding a good family like this in the future!"
"If my parents-in-law want to get married sooner, then do it sooner. Once the wedding is done sooner, the matter will be settled, and we won't have to worry about it all day long."
As the old saying goes, the longer the night, the more dreams you may have. If this matter is delayed for a long time, maybe things will change.
Isn’t that what happened to those two damn girls, Zhuang Qingning and Zhuang Qingsui? We caught them one day late, and they were quietly established as female households. From then on, life became different.
So, it’s better to hurry up.
"That's what happened." Song nodded repeatedly, "The head of the family is really capable. He was able to find such a good marriage for Qinghe."
After talking for so long, I finally said something sensible.
Zhuang Ruman raised his chin, "Of course, this is also a coincidence. Good things have happened to us. It is also thanks to Qinghe's good fortune that people took a fancy to Qinghe's fortune and said that she would bring good luck to her husband!"
"That's right. We, Qing He, are blessed at first glance. We are nothing like those two damn girls, who are destined to work hard!"
Song's face was also full of pride.
