"But, with little grandpa... the situation is different."
"He is a diligent old man who is still working hard for his children and grandchildren at this age. I can't bear to see him suffering so much. He should live a better life in his twilight years. At least, he doesn't have to suffer himself when it comes to food."
Hearing what Yang Ruoqing said, Luo Fengtang came forward and gently held her shoulders, "How about we give your little grandpa a sum of money so that he can live until his old age?"
Yang Ruoqing was grateful for Luo Fengtang's open-mindedness and kindness, but shook her head and rejected his proposal.
"It's not appropriate to give money directly. He must be reluctant to spend it on himself. When the time comes, it will definitely be subsidized to his descendants."
"It should be my cousin who takes on the important responsibility of raising children and shouldering the responsibility of the Yang family. We just want to improve my little grandpa's life and prevent him from grievances too much."
After hearing her words, Luo Fengtang also realized that his proposal was indeed inappropriate.
"Okay, then let's give your little grandpa more food, clothing, housing and transportation. Even if he secretly sells some, at least if we give more, he can keep some for himself."
"In addition, we can also bring him some food every now and then, so that he can eat it himself and not sell it. Do you think this is okay?"
Yang Ruoqing didn't answer whether he was okay, but looked at him steadily, then stood up on tiptoes and kissed him hard on the face.
This is the best answer and award!
The next morning after eating snake soup, firecrackers were set off in the second room of the Jiang family in the village.
"Ms. Jiang is really willing to give up this time. Listening to the sound of the firecrackers, it's like thousands of firecrackers!"
"Doesn't it cost dozens of coins to hang ten thousand whips? It's just a grand ceremony for the daughter-in-law and her parents to come over to meet each other. Then why don't we have to go to higher places to prepare the betrothal gifts?"
"I can't help it. Who knows that this daughter-in-law was personally chosen by Mrs. Jiang for Xianjun? What's the saying? The son-in-law that the mother-in-law likes may not become a son-in-law, but the daughter-in-law that the mother-in-law likes will definitely become a daughter-in-law. !”
The sound of the firecrackers could be heard by most of the village, and the sound reached the pond at the entrance of the village, causing a bunch of women to chat and discuss the matter.
Suddenly, a woman saw Bao Suyun coming over to wash things, so she quickly winked at the others.
Everyone quickly stopped the topic. A few people who had interacted with Bao Suyun took the initiative to say hello to her, "Mianmian Niang, come here to wash. I'm free here."
Bao Suyun smiled and came over.
But there are also some women in the crowd who are inquiring like Ms. Liu. Although they don't have any malicious intentions, they just can't control their inner strength and want to ask a few questions. It will bring displeasure to the parties concerned.
"Mianmian Niang, Jiang Xianjun's daughter-in-law is here to greet you. Do you know about this?"
The gossip woman put her mouth forward and looked at Bao Suyun with a pair of smiling eyes, trying to catch the abnormality in Bao Suyun's expression.
If Bao Suyun had not been vaccinated by Sun, Yang Ruoqing and the others in advance, I am afraid that they would have lost their composure if they were caught off guard and asked in front of them.
But at this moment, Bao Suyun just smiled faintly at the woman, "Of course I know. Uncle Jiang and my father-in-law have a good relationship. This matter was informed to our Lao Yang family a few days ago."
The gossip woman's mind was also spinning fast, "So, your two families have a good relationship, so you have to go over and give gifts today?"
This is the case for all villagers. When a new daughter-in-law comes to greet her, relatives, friends and villagers with whom she has friendships will wrap a few eggs in a handkerchief and send them over to add to the splendor.
Bao Suyun nodded gracefully, "I must be here to add to the splendor. My Guiling recognizes and gets married, and the Jiang family is here. They were polite first, so we must return the favor. This is the rule!"
Bao Suyun's words immediately silenced the gossiping woman.
Not only was it blocked, it was blocked seamlessly.
If you don't send it off, it will appear that you are a petty person with five bedrooms and are still angry about breaking off the engagement.
They may even say that you deliberately avoided it because you were afraid of being sad and making you look more guilty and short of breath.
If you hurry up, people will say you are heartless.
Bao Suyun used the example of Dabao and Jiang Guiling's marriage, which made the whole matter look much smoother.
It not only preserved the magnanimity of Wufang, but also perfectly put Mianmian aside.
If others ask further, they are deliberately trying to make it difficult for them to get through. If he was deliberately trying to make it difficult, then Bao Suyun would naturally have prepared other words to counterattack.
Fortunately, the women who had previously invited Bao Suyun to come over and wash her also spoke up.
They talked the gossipy woman away, and then changed the subject and started chatting with Bao Suyun, all about Jiang Guiling and Dabao doing business in the county.
When asked this, Bao Suyun breathed a sigh of relief and naturally answered more smoothly.
"Sister-in-law, you have misunderstood. They did not open a large shop in the county town. They only rented two small houses. They were not on the bustling streets of the county town, but on the outskirts of the city near the farm."
"Why do you want to go there? Shouldn't those who do business go where there are more people?"
"Haha..." Bao Suyun smiled, "They mainly rented fields to grow tobacco leaves. They had to wait until the tobacco leaves were mature and made into shredded tobacco before they could be sold for money. Before that, they were all in the suburbs of the city!"
Bao Suyun didn't explain too much, because she knew that these people were just curious and inquiring, and they wouldn't really take it to heart.
But she knew that when the shredded tobacco was made, she would go to the county streets to find shops selling it. She didn’t have to worry about this, as Lao Wulao had already been paying attention to it.
And Yongjin has been in the county for so many years, so he will also help.
But there was no need to talk about those things to the women in front of me.
"What about your Mianmian? I haven't seen her for a while. Did she go to the county seat?"
The gossipy woman from before asked again from a distance away.
Bao Suyun nodded to the woman good-naturedly: "Yes, my brother and sister-in-law have to grow tobacco leaves and can't smoke, so she has to help take care of the children."
"Oh, no wonder I haven't seen him for a long time." The woman said.
The other women around Bao Suyun then helped and said, "It's a good idea for your family, Mianmian, to go to the county seat with you. It will broaden your horizons. Maybe you will be as successful as Qing'er."
Bao Suyun smiled, "I don't dare to expect her to be as capable as her sister. If she can be 10% as capable as her sister, I will be satisfied."
Everyone chatted again, and Bao Suyun quickly left after washing her things.
After she left, the gossipy woman from before spoke again.
"If the engagement hadn't been broken off, Mianmian might have married into the Jiang family by now. As for a girl who left her hometown and went to the county?"
