Ji Mingtao's expression suddenly became indifferent. He was no longer as gentle and harmless as he pretended to be. He looked at Mrs. Song with a pair of indifferent eyes and emphasized again: "I have thought very clearly, I will not do door-to-door service." Son-in-law, Aunt Song, please find someone else."
"Why? Your son-in-law has a bad reputation, but in fact you have nothing to lose, right? You can still have your wife and children on the bed like other men. Those young men of the same age as you in the village can now make soy sauce for their children. You don't even have a daughter-in-law, don't you envy her?" Mother Song didn't understand very much, and was a little dissatisfied with Ji Mingtao's lack of appreciation.
Ji Mingtao replied expressionlessly: "I'm not envious."
Song's mother was choked by his words. She was a little angry for a moment, so she started to run away from home. She said, "Don't envy me? I think you are a tough talker, right? I don't believe you, a vigorous man in his twenties." Don’t miss women! It’s a pity that no woman likes you, right? I’m here to propose marriage to you on behalf of my eldest girl because I think highly of you. Don’t be shameless..."
Ji Mingtao felt very impatient as he listened to her gushing talk, making her saliva fly. So he couldn't bear it anymore and said coldly to Mrs. Song:
"Let me tell you the truth, Aunt Song. I actually don't like your eldest girl. I like pretty ones. But your eldest girl is thick and plain-looking. I really don't like her, let alone her." Got married!"
When Song's mother heard what he said, she opened her mouth in shock. It took her a while to react. She screamed and said, "What did you say? You still can't look down on my big girl? What qualifications do you have to look down on my big girl?" Her? I haven’t given up on you, a landlord brat, but you still dare to look down on my daughter? You still like the pretty ones? It’s a pity that the pretty ones can’t look down on you! You brat, I think your heart is as high as the sky and your life is as thin as paper. !”
Mother Song was so angry that her blood rushed to her head. Ji Mingtao actually dared to say that her eldest daughter was not good-looking! Although his daughter is indeed not very good-looking, how can he choose a wife based solely on her appearance? Doesn’t it all depend on whether the woman is diligent or not and whether she can do it? His daughter endures hardships and stands hard, so how can she not be worthy of him?
"Hey, Sister Song, please calm down. The young man is so angry and talking nonsense!" Seeing that the situation was about to get out of control, the matchmaker hurriedly said, "Ji family boy, please tell your Aunt Song that you are sorry for saying that. A girl, as her mother, Aunt Song, of course will be angry, please apologize quickly."
Ji Mingtao, however, remained unmoved and said, "I don't think I have anything to apologize for. I just told the truth. What she said before was already an insult to me. I didn't retaliate because I was polite."
"Bah! You little bitch! Let me ask you again, are you really unwilling to marry into my family?" Aunt Song saw Ji Mingtao's attitude toward her and understood Ji Mingtao's determination, and she became furious.
"You are so strong-willed, I wonder what kind of immortal you will be able to marry in the future! With your despicable behavior, I think you will not only be unable to marry an immortal, but you will also be unable to marry a sow. You will be deprived of your children and grandchildren for the rest of your life!"
Her last sentence could be regarded as a curse. If Ji Mingtao hadn't still had sense, his fist would have hit her in the face. Unfortunately, he didn't hit women and children, so he only had a cold face and stared at Song sternly. Mother, counterattacked: "I don't know whether I will cut off my children and grandchildren, but haven't your Song family already cut off their children and grandchildren? Is this your retribution? The culprit is you. You are the sinner of your Song family..."
Ji Mingtao is not a kind person to begin with. He has experienced the cruelest darkness. He is smart and ruthless. If others don't mess with him, he is just a harmless sheep. When others mess with him, he immediately lifts the layer on his body. Sheepskin, revealing the sharp teeth of a wolf.
He saw through Song's mother's weakness at a glance, so he stabbed at her without mercy, cruelly and neatly.
Sure enough, after Song's mother heard what he said, her face suddenly turned pale, and her face declined at a speed visible to the naked eye. Ji Mingtao severely poked the corner of her heart that was least vulnerable.
Song's mother opened her mouth but could not speak. She pointed at Ji Mingtao with a trembling finger. Seeing her appearance, the matchmaker was afraid that she would become angry or get into a fight with Ji Mingtao, so she hurriedly pulled her away. .
Ji Mingtao looked at the background of the two people with cold eyes. It took him a while to calm down the various emotions rolling in his eyes and regain his calm.
As soon as Gu Shichu came back from outside, he saw the matchmaker helping Song's mother out of Ji Mingtao's house. She was a little confused. Ji Mingtao's house had almost no guests. Normally, except for her, almost no outsiders would set foot in his house. So this Two people suddenly came to see Ji Mingtao. What was going on?
Gu Shichu was a little curious, and an idea flashed in his mind, and he suddenly remembered that the middle-aged woman who helped Song's mother leave Ji Mingtao's house was not a famous matchmaker nearby?
Her eyes widened instantly. Could it be that the matchmaker was here to help Ji Mingtao? Who is talking about? Mother Song's daughter? Gu Shichu suddenly thought of many things.
So in the evening, Gu Shichu sneaked into Ji Mingtao's house. After some reconciliation, Gu Shichu nestled in Ji Mingtao's arms, yawned and asked him: "I saw the matchmaker coming out of your house today. Has anyone asked you to propose marriage?"
Ji Mingtao was enjoying the afterglow of love and affairs, lazily and drowsily. When he heard Gu Shichu's question, he immediately became energetic. He looked at Gu Shichu's face carefully and did not see any question on her face. Or there were signs of anger, but he also answered cautiously, saying:
"I was asked to be Song Da Niu's son-in-law, but I refused."
When Gu Shichu heard this, he was so surprised that he immediately got up from Ji Mingtao's arms and asked enthusiastically: "I actually want you to marry me? Aunt Song is too thoughtful, isn't she? But her eldest girl is pretty, isn't it? ah……"
Gu Shichu tried hard to recall Song Da Niu's appearance. He remembered that she was tall and strong and a good worker. Unfortunately, such a figure did not conform to the aesthetics of men today. In addition, she had done a lot of farm work and her skin was damaged. He is relatively rough and dark, with a big face, small eyes, and average and unrefined facial features. This combination makes him very ordinary and not good-looking. In appearance, he is not worthy of Ji Mingtao's figure and appearance. of.
Ji Mingtao saw that her face was full of curiosity, without any jealousy, envy or anger, and he suddenly didn't know what it felt like. Did this woman really not care about him at all? Otherwise, why does she act like she has nothing to do with someone who proposes marriage to her?
"Getting married into a child is not a good choice. If you want to marry a wife, then marry one openly and honestly. Being a son-in-law these days will be looked down upon by others. It is uncomfortable to be looked at strangely by others. There is no need for you to wrong yourself so much." Gu Shichu also said For Ji Mingtao's sake, he suggested gently and seriously.
