After hearing the reason why the matchmaker came, Sun Ruhua said awkwardly: "We still want to back out of this marriage."
When Matchmaker Zhang heard this, she immediately stood up: "Mrs. Sun, what a wonderful marriage! Are you angry because the date has not been announced? I said, it's not the Jiang family's fault! They have a great business. How can I have any leisure time? And I told you, Master Jiang, you are both talented and beautiful. If you miss this village, you won’t have this shop!"
"But my family..."
"Also, the Jiang family has made a betrothal offer a long time ago. You also accepted the betrothal gift last time. It's settled. Now that the time has come, if you suddenly regret your engagement, I'm afraid the Jiang family will definitely disapprove. , when the time comes...you also understand that we, from a small family, have the ability to compete with a big family like them, right?" In a few words, it is to show affection, to be moved, and to be polite. It was silent coercion, and Sun Ruhua couldn't even open her mouth!
He could only look at Xie Jiaojiao.
When Xie Jiaojiao was about to speak, Matchmaker Zhang immediately smiled and pulled Xie Jiaojiao back: "This is Miss Xie, oh, she looks really beautiful. How come the young master of the Jiang family fell in love with her at first sight?"
Xie Jiaojiao:?
"Matchmaker, our family really wants to withdraw from this marriage. You can carry the betrothal gift back for us today." Xie Jiaojiao said directly.
"And even if you don't come today, I will take these betrothal gifts to the county town to find the Jiang family to cancel the engagement tomorrow."
When Matchmaker Zhang heard this, she thought it was okay. The eldest young master of the Jiang family had already agreed to the marriage. If the relationship was broken with her, the Jiang family would definitely not let her go. Who else would ask her for matchmaking business in the future?
She hurriedly grabbed Xie Jiaojiao's wrist: "Oh, my girl Xie, what can't you think about? This young master of the Jiang family married you to a matchmaker, and he was a real wife. If you really break off the engagement, what will happen to the Jiang family?" With such a great cause, how can I let you go?"
After sending the matchmaker away, Sun Ruhua sighed, and Xie Jiaojiao also sounded a little annoyed.
"Jiaojiao..."
Xie Jiaojiao took a deep breath and tried to comfort Sun Ruhua: "Mom, don't worry. In the worst case, I'll get married."
"But aren't you unwilling?"
"You don't have to worry about these things. I'll go find out if the Jiang family is really as powerful as the matchmaker said some other time. Okay, you pack up the things the matchmaker brought. Shopkeeper Chen will get someone later. .”
Only then did Sun Ruhua start to move.
In fact, what Xie Jiaojiao was thinking was that Jiang Weinan was really a bitch!
Yesterday, she was asked to go to the county town to cancel the engagement, and today she came to announce the good news. She felt more and more that this man was deliberately playing tricks on her!
When they met in the town another day, she would definitely let him know how powerful she was and see if he dared to marry her!
It was almost noon when someone came from shopkeeper Chen.
As soon as this person arrived, Xie Jiaojiao quickly helped him load his things into the car.
In the end, the two parties settled the money.
Sun Ruhua was happy when she saw the sale for a lot of money.
Xie Jiaojiao went back to the house to put the money away, and said to Sun Ruhua with a smile: "Mom, next year, let's find a piece of land and build two houses of our own. Do you think it's okay?"
When Sun Ruhua heard this, she was very happy: "It works! Of course it works!"
Although this house is well-kept and you are used to living in it, no matter how nice it is, it is not your own house!
Xie Zhiyi was also happy to be there. Xie Jiaojiao looked at him and said, "Zhiyi, do you want to go to school? Now you have money at home!"
Xie Jiaojiao also asked the same question before.
Xie Zhiyi shook his head: "I don't want to study. What's the good of studying?"
Xie Jiaojiao was a little helpless: "Then what are you going to do in the future?"
"Well... I want to buy land, farm it, and become a rich man in the future!"
His words made both Xie Jiaojiao and Sun Ruhua laugh!
Xie Jiaojiao thought about the silver at home and said to Sun Ruhua: "Mom, why don't you go and find out who wants to sell land in this village? We don't have to buy first-class land, just second-class land!"
When Sun Ruhua heard this, she immediately turned around: "Farmers are all like this. If they have spare money, they all want to buy land. If there is more land, there will be more food and we can feed more people!"
After lunch, Sun Ruhua was about to go out to inquire. Many people in the village saw the matchmaker leading people to her house in the morning, and asked her if her family was going to hold a wedding soon.
Thinking that her daughter was not happy about the marriage, Sun Ruhua couldn't feel happy, but she still smiled and waved her hands and said, "It's still early!"
Xie Jiaojiao was at home and took Xie Zhiyi into the mountains in the afternoon to see how the sugar cane in the mountains was growing.
Xie Zhiyi was greedy and wanted to catch some mountain crabs to eat, but Xie Jiaojiao asked him to catch them himself.
Seeing so many crabs caught in the evening, Sun Ruhua didn't know what to do. Xie Jiaojiao simply took it upon herself to make a spicy crab. Sun Ruhua and Xie Zhiyi were salivating over the delicious crab!
The family ate a large bowl, but it was not enough. Xie Zhiyi was so spicy that he drank water and wanted to eat at the same time. Seeing that they liked it so much, Xie Jiaojiao thought, maybe this thing can make some money, anyway, it is necessary A trip to town can't be in vain, right?
Early the next morning, Xie Jiaojiao asked Xie Zhiyi to call Tian Hu.
When Tian Hu came, he picked up a load of firewood for Xie Jiaojiao's family.
Xie Jiaojiao asked for money for everything, which made Tian Hu very embarrassed.
"Thank you, sister-in-law, I just thought about it. It's winter. Your family must be in need. I don't want any money!"
"I know, but I can't take this thing for free, right?"
Finally, Xie Jiaojiao said a few more words, and then Tian Hu accepted the copper coins.
"Why did Aunt Xie come to me today?"
Xie Jiaojiao said: "There is a piece of sugar cane on the mountain. I would like to ask you to help collect it. I will give you fifteen copper coins a day. I wonder if you are willing?" The reason for the increase in her salary is because the mountain road is not good. Let's go, it will be very troublesome to get it back by then!
When Tian Hu heard that there was money to be made, of course he was willing. With this copper coin, he could buy a new set of clothes for Nai, and he would not get cold in the winter!
"Of course I do!"
Xie Jiaojiao nodded.
That afternoon, Hetian Hu went up the mountain to cut sugar cane.
When Tian Hu saw this piece of sugar cane, he was surprised: "I have seen this before when cutting firewood. I thought it was reeds!"
This wild sugar cane grows like reeds. Although she used this seed, her land was well cultivated, and the sugar cane she planted grew much better than this wild sugar cane.
Xie Zhiyi also went up the mountain because Xie Jiaojiao gave him a task, which was to catch more mountain crabs in the past few days. She would be useful in two days.
Xie Zhiyi is so willing, catching crabs is so much fun!
Wild sugar cane is only one or two points of land.
The two of them worked hard for three days and got everything back.
Seeing that the crabs Xie Zhiyi caught were in a bad mental state.
Xie Jiaojiao left the sugar cane water pressing matter to Tian Hu, and went to town carrying the mountain crab on her back!
