My eldest sister-in-law Chen Miao was married in Xiaoyue Village, but her husband also worked in the winery. He knew everything about the things here. When he heard about this, he ran back in a hurry.
Then I closed the door and discussed it with the old couple.
Upon hearing that Old Man Chen wanted to find someone to propose marriage, Chen Miao sneered: "Such a shameless bitch, she has caused so much trouble before she even got married. If you really want to marry her, aren't you afraid of wronging my second brother? If something else happens, it will be so embarrassing!"
Old man Chen said awkwardly, "No, right?"
"Of course not! Hasn't she done enough disgusting things? Besides, she said in public that she jumped into the water just to get close to Qi Xiaolang, and you still asked me to admit it. Aren't you cursing me to be a coward?"
Old man Chen was worried: "Well, I'm afraid if we don't marry her, the villagers will criticize us!"
"You'll only be criticized if you marry her!" Chen Miao used his trump card: "Think about it, their relationship with the Tang family is almost like an enemy, even though they are family. If you marry her, will you still be able to see the Tang family in the future? Do you still want to join the martial arts hall and the wine shop?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Old Man Chen immediately took it seriously.
After all, my family still makes money by selling jelly!
After a long while, he said, "According to you, we should just ignore it and pretend to be confused?"
...
...
Chen Miao was about to say yes, but suddenly a plan came to her mind: "No need, actually Grandma Sun is a person who values money more than her life, why don't we do this..." She whispered a few words in his ear: "That way, no one will be able to say anything bad about our family anymore!"
The villagers were just telling jokes when they heard that Chen Jiayang had found someone to go to the Tang family to propose marriage.
The villagers didn't laugh at them. They just said that the Chen family was really kind and were willing to admit it.
After this incident, the Tang family had a big fuss. Mrs. Sun was so angry that she was shaking all over and scolded Tang Guihua harshly for most of the night.
Tang Guihua was not willing to give in and just lay on the head of the bed and cried.
Just at this time, the matchmaker from the Chen family came to the door.
The matchmaker they hired was an aunt from the village. Her attitude was quite polite, but her meaning was very clear.
This time it was an accident. Chen Erniu had good intentions in saving people, but you also know what happened in the middle. As fellow villagers, they can be responsible, but there is no betrothal gift or bride price. If you agree, they will marry you.
When Mrs. Sun heard this, she was furious and kicked the aunt out.
When Tang Guihua heard this, she was immediately furious, thinking to herself, how dare an ugly guy, a country bumpkin, despise her! He is not worthy!
So she wiped her tears and said to Grandma Sun with a heroic face: "Mother, you go and marry that family in town! I accept it! I will be his second wife! I want to let those people in the village who look down on others see that no matter how unlucky I am, I will never be reduced to being a farmer's wife!"
As he spoke, he felt aggrieved and started to cry.
When Mrs. Sun heard this, she agreed.
Anyway, the people in the town won't know about what's happening here, so just agree to it and get the job done quickly. As long as you get married, these will be no big deal.
So she sent someone to tell the matchmaker.
Unexpectedly, the matchmaker came that afternoon and started to curse at the door: "You conscienceless thing! I have traveled all over the place and have never seen such a marriage fraud! Your daughter has been hugged by someone else and her innocence is gone, and you still want to marry a nobleman in town! Are you trying to destroy my reputation? Aren't you afraid that if you anger others, I will report you to the police and arrest you!"
Mrs. Sun hurried out to meet her, wanting to drag her in to talk in detail, but the matchmaker was also stubborn and refused to come in. She stood at the door and cursed for a long time. Finally, she said, "You can keep your daughter to yourselves! We dare not marry her!" and left.
It was another big joke for the villagers.
In this case, it seems that the only option left is to marry Chen Erniu.
The gap is too big, how could Tang Guihua agree to it?
But no matter how much Grandma Sun loved her daughter, there was a limit to her love. This time, regardless of whether she was willing or not, she said directly: "Either you marry me! Or you go hang yourself! I don't have a daughter as shameful as you!"
Tang Guihua felt very aggrieved.
But I dare not die.
I want to find Qi Jing.
But I couldn't even get out the door.
She hated Chen Erniu who forced her to marry her. She thought that if he used such a dirty trick to marry her, what would happen? She would definitely not give him a good face!
Then the whole family waited patiently for the Chen family to come and propose marriage again.
After all, her daughter, a pretty virgin, was going to condescend to marry a dark and ugly peasant man. Their family was really lucky!
Tang Guihua said to Grandma Sun angrily, "Don't agree so easily! Let them come more often! Give him a good walk!"
"Don't worry!" Grandma Sun had solved all the big problems, so she would do as she pleased with the small ones: "I will definitely teach him a lesson! Get more money out of them! If you can subdue him, your life will be easier after you marry into the family!"
The mother and daughter had a good idea, but after three or two rounds of waiting, the Chen family never came to propose marriage.
After waiting for another two days, I heard that the Chen family was engaged to Tang Xueer, the daughter of Tang Xing's family at the entrance of the village.
The Tang family was not well-informed, and by the time they heard the news, the two families had already exchanged their birth certificates.
Mrs. Sun was extremely angry. She never thought that the Chen family would dare to ignore her daughter!
She went straight to the Chen family and angrily said, "What do you mean by that? You took advantage of my daughter and you want to deny it? Don't you even consider whether I am someone you can easily mess with?"
Chen's eldest sister-in-law Zhao came out and said slowly, "We don't understand what grandma said. We sent someone to propose marriage the next day, but you scolded the matchmaker and said that Guihua would rather marry a pig or a dog than marry a member of our Chen family... We thought that Guihua might still want to marry Qi Xiaolang, so she naturally doesn't like our Erniu. It just so happens that we have already agreed with Xue'er's family, so we naturally got engaged. What does it have to do with grandma?"
Mrs. Sun's face turned red from holding it in.
She gritted her teeth for a long time before saying, "Your family doesn't even give a betrothal gift. If I don't beat you up, how can I give you face?"
"Grandma," Zhao said, "giving a betrothal gift depends on the situation. You, Guihua, want to blame Qi Xiaolang for jumping into the water, but we, Erniu, were just trying to save people out of kindness. You can't blame us no matter what. We are willing to take responsibility because we are kind. But you still want a betrothal gift? We are not the ones who are being taken advantage of!"
Everyone burst into laughter.
Mrs. Sun was panting with anger.
But she had no other choice, so she finally said fiercely: "Okay, we don't need a betrothal gift, you can ask someone to propose marriage!"
She felt that she had given in as far as she could.
But Zhao said, "Grandma, our family and Xue'er have even exchanged engagement letters. The marriage is settled and cannot be cancelled. Grandma, you should look for another family."
Mother Sun was so angry that she made a big fuss, even in front of the clan leader and the village head, but even the clan leader and the village head did not help her.
They themselves are not right!
Tang Guihua's reputation was completely ruined, and she couldn't even marry the farmer she despised the most.
In this controversy, apart from Qi Jing who was a background character and was often mentioned, Tang Shiyue and the others were all irrelevant spectators who listened to Madam Zhou's live broadcast every day and ate the gossip.
To be honest, the few words Tang Guihua said after she fell into the water and was rescued... If the rumors she heard were true, then it was really the most wrong example for women in ancient times to fall into the water...
As expected, in the end, all efforts were in vain.
Tang Shiyue said that eating the melon was very enjoyable.
It was Madam Zhou who advised her: "Yuer, you still have to take what I told you before seriously. Qi Xiaolang is such a good man, you still have to settle on him early. If you settle on him, it will be more convenient for you to do things and avoid gossip from others."
Tang Shiyue was still playing dumb.
It is impossible to get engaged.
As a law-abiding modern young person, she would never consider this matter before she was eighteen years old!
Yes, just flirt but don’t get engaged. While you’re still young, no, young... have a pure, campus-style romance!
