"What? Get her engaged!"
Was she seeing things?
She was thousands of miles away, yet her family wanted to get her engaged!
And the person she was getting engaged to was someone Yi Xiaoqiu had never met before.
How can this be?
Absolutely not!
No matter how good the other person is or how handsome he is, it won’t work!
This matter is simple, and it is related to the people her grandfather saved in his early years.
It is said that the other family has a single grandson who is not young anymore and is busy in the army. He has never had a girlfriend. The old man wants to strengthen the relationship between the two families. On the Yi family side, there are Yi Xiaoqiu's sisters, whether they are cousins or relatives, who have all had relationships and got married early in order to avoid going to the countryside. Only Yi Xiaoqiu is still a single young woman.
If Yi Xiaoqiu married the other party, she would be able to return to the city from the countryside immediately. In addition, Grandpa Yi had seen the other party's grandson, and Jian Chen praised him highly, so the Yi family was tempted.
However, Yi's father was quite democratic and wrote a letter in advance to ask Yi Xiaoqiu's opinion.
Yi Xiaoqiu picked up a pen and quickly wrote a reply to his family.
The general meaning is that as a woman of the new era, she is unwilling to marry blindly. Moreover, she lives well in the countryside and her family is not worried about her. She wants to respond to the call of the country, stay in the countryside to make contributions, and return to the city in the future based on her own abilities.
It is impossible to go back. She has finally won over the lucky protagonist to sell goods to her and make a lot of money. If she leaves, she will lose a lot of money!
Besides, her mission is not over yet!
How can I leave!
Yi Xiaoqiu had just finished writing the letter and was struggling over what to send back when there was a knock on the door.
She put the letter away and opened the door. Outside the door was Song Ying carrying a snakeskin bag.
In the sack was a little wild boar that she had specially left for her to eat.
She went hunting in the mountains just to eat meat, and catching wild boars and selling them was just a side job.
"The wild boar has been sold for 568 yuan per bushel. It's yours." Song Ying handed Yi Xiaoqiu a stack of money as soon as she entered the house.
Yi Xiaoqiu looked at the stack of money and knew it was quite a lot without even counting. She quickly waved her hand and said, "I didn't do anything, so I won't take the money."
"Who said you didn't contribute? If you hadn't led the other wild boar away, it would have been difficult for me to deal with two wild boars by myself." Seeing that Yi Xiaoqiu didn't take it, Song Ying put the money on her kang.
Since she had said this, and Yi Xiaoqiu knew a little about her intentions, she did not refuse.
Yesterday she was so focused on reading the gossip about the Ding family that she didn't feel anything at the time, but now she still feels a little scared when she thinks about it.
The wild boar's hot breath almost sprayed on her butt. If it had been a little bit closer, she would have...
Yi Xiaoqiu immediately interrupted her thoughts, "Next time, why don't you find a male companion to go into the mountains with you? You can see that I can only run... I'm afraid of holding you back."
Song Ying didn't force it and took out half a piece of wild boar meat from the sack. "Okay, this is for you."
This time Yi Xiaoqiu didn't hesitate and picked up a pork leg. "Thanks, I'm craving meat!"
There was not much wild boar meat in half a side, only about 30 kilograms. What Song Ying left behind was a small wild boar. The meat of this kind of wild boar was tender and fresh, and tasted different from the domestic pigs raised on Yi Xiaoqiu's farm.
After Song Ying left, Yi Xiaoqiu counted the stack of money and found there were 284 yuan, which was equivalent to splitting it equally with Song Ying.
This time she got the upper hand.
Yi Xiaoqiu planned to return some of it, but then he thought that Song Ying was not short of money now, and it would be embarrassing to give it back.
Song Ying would spend hundreds or even thousands of yuan on any goods she bought. If she hadn't wanted to keep a low profile and not let them buy too much at one time, their payments would have been much higher each time.
Forget it. At worst, when I destroy Song Ying's feelings in the future, I can just give her a little bit of it and consider it as repaying the favor.
By the way, Yi Xiaoqiu really couldn't imagine who Song Ying would be with.
I can’t even imagine what it’s like for Song Ying to be in love with the male lead.
Yi Xiaoqiu handed half of the wild boar to the housekeeper to cook and added some fire to the stove.
The kang was warm, and Yi Xiaoqiu lay on it, thinking about the Ding family's affairs.
If Liu Xiaoping and Gao Xiaoyu knew that their scandal had been exposed, she didn't know if they would still have the nerve to show up in front of her. She would probably just stay away from them.
But this is not certain. It might even make her even more powerful and shut up completely.
After three tragic deaths, Yi Xiaoqiu knew more or less about the nature of these people. She was fine now because she was strong enough. Otherwise, based on the things they had done, she would have died countless times in the past.
Yi Xiaoqiu had no intention of letting a few people go just like that. She had to find a way to catch all the Ding family members in one fell swoop.
But after thinking for a long time, he still couldn't think of a good way to catch all the Ding family members in one fell swoop.
I wonder what Ding Dali will do when he finds out that he is being cuckolded by his brother?
Should I fight and break up with my brothers, or join them?
Regarding these two situations, Yi Xiaoqiu had some vague ideas.
However, she still had to confirm some things first.
Thinking of this, Yi Xiaoqiu couldn't lie down any longer. She looked at the time and saw that it was only 12 o'clock in the afternoon and it was already dark.
Yi Xiaoqiu lay down again. It was still early, and it would be almost time to go out after the housekeeper prepared the meal.
Here, Song Ying started cooking the meat in the house, and the aroma was about to spread out.
Everyone is used to it.
It would be abnormal if the smell of meat did not come from the house of the female educated youth in the backyard for a long time.
Shen Ruofei and Su Mianmian are not the kind of people who treat themselves badly. Every time they go to the office, they always buy some meat to satisfy their hunger.
Because Yi Xiaoqiu had a housekeeper cooking for her, she rarely ate out. On the contrary, the aroma of meat was the least wafting from her room.
There is basically no smell of food. You may say that they don’t cook, but the fireworks come out from the roof on time for three meals a day.
Well, everyone agreed that Yi Xiaoqiu didn’t eat anything delicious on weekdays, and probably just ate black flour steamed buns like before.
This is also the reason why Song Ying took Yi Xiaoqiu to the mountains to hunt wild boars.
She made a fortune and earned a lot of money by relying on Yi Xiaoqiu's relationship. She couldn't just watch Yi Xiaoqiu eat steamed buns miserably!
As for Yi Xiaoqiu making clothes, Song Ying would only think that Yi Xiaoqiu was using the money he saved to buy cloth and make clothes, just like he had saved money to buy a bicycle before.
Song Ying even estimated that the money Yi Xiaoqiu's family sent her was not much.
Shen Ruofei didn't think Yi Xiaoqiu would have a miserable life. Firstly, her observation skills were not as sharp as Song Ying's. Secondly, Shen Ruofei had given Yi Xiaoqiu a lot of money from the ginseng before, so she knew that he was not that poor.
I've gone off topic. The smell of meat wafted from the backyard of the educated youth settlement. Several educated youth in the kitchen poked their heads out to see whose house the smell came from.
After sniffing around, they found that it was Song Ying's room, and everyone returned to the kitchen with a look of disappointment.
If Lu Rongrong and Shen Ruofei were better off, they would have been shameless enough to get some food.
Lu Rongrong thought that since Gu Zhiqing was around and they were both well-off, it was not impossible for her to treat others to a piece of meat.
Shen Ruofei is really easy to talk to. She doesn't care much about meat and is willing to be taken advantage of occasionally.
Su Mianmian was shy, and with Chi Zhiqing around, it was difficult for her to refuse.
As for Yi Xiaoqiu...
Since the autumn harvest, there has been no smell of meat in her house.
How many new sets of clothes has Yi Zhiqing made since the weather turned cold?
Isn’t it enough to have this clothes to wear?
I don’t know what’s going on in the countryside. She does farm work and yet makes so many new clothes, while she eats only coarse food every day.
That’s right, not only Song Ying thought Yi Xiaoqiu was poor, but some of the male educated youth also had the same idea as Song Ying.
It’s no wonder they think so. After Yi Xiaoqiu sold pork twice at the educated youth site, he kept reminding himself to keep a low profile.
Whether it's making money or making a living, it's better to be humble. No matter what you eat, eat it on the farm. After eating, take two black-faced steamed buns and put them on the stove to dissipate the smell.
At this point, no one has any hope for Yi Xiaoqiu.
