Chapter 63: The matchmaker comes to the door

With Zhao Yongzhong's assurance, the family went on the road with peace of mind. After a short time they crossed the bridge and walked to the threshing floor in the village.

Under the old locust tree on the threshing floor, as in the past, a group of daughters-in-law and children gathered, and they were chatting with relish.

If it was when she had just left the gate of Lizheng's house before, Zhao Siniang would definitely try her best to go to the old locust tree to publicize the evil deeds of the old Zhao family. But at this time, Zhao Siniang was very happy that her father could give the promise she wanted, for her father's sake, she decided to let Zhao Qiao's family go, pull Zhao Sanniang, who was a little impatient, and follow her father and continue to walk forward.

But Zhao Qiao's family has been making too much trouble these days, and the old Zhao family has suddenly become the focus of attention in the village. At this time, those daughters-in-law were talking about Zhao Yongzhong's family, and suddenly saw the parties in front of them, where were they willing to let them go, and they were busy surrounding them, and kept asking.

Zhao Sanniang indirectly learned what Zhao Qiao's had done in the past few days in the gossip of everyone, and she was very angry. Where would she be polite, first clarified the facts, and then counted the ugly faces of the old Zhao family, and then she was willing to follow Zhao Yongzhong obediently.

After walking for a while, Zhao Yongzhong saw that there was no one around, and he wanted to say a few words to the second daughter, but when the words came to his mouth, he still didn't speak, and even those who originally wanted to sigh couldn't help but dare to sigh. There's no way, one of his daughters is stronger than the other, he is really not their opponent!

Seeing that they were about to arrive at Lao Zhao's house, the family did not rush inside, but went to Zhao Yongfang's house next door first.

Although Zhao Yongfang was not at home at this time, Zhao Yongfang's daughter-in-law Liu was the most hospitable, and when she saw their family visiting, she hurriedly pulled them into the hall and sat down without saying a word.

The family first returned the five strings of money to the Liu family, and also gave two big fish, two packets of brown sugar, two packs of jujube and a ruler as a thank you gift.

Liu was surprised, and hurriedly inquired about the family's current situation, wondering where the money and goods came from.

Before Jiang could speak, he heard a cry from the courtyard of Lao Zhao's house, and the family looked at each other. They heard at the threshing floor just now that Zhao Qiao's family would cry at home from time to time in the past few days, and sometimes they felt that it was not enjoyable, and they even went outside the door to scold their unfilial descendants, and sent a message to cut off relations with them. Is Zhao Qiao's going to sing again at this time?

Don't say that Zhao Siniang and they quickly calmed down, but they didn't hear it, and even the Liu family, who was tired of listening to it in the past few days, didn't think so, and continued to talk to the family.

But Zhao Yongzhong and Jiang couldn't hold their faces, and some couldn't sit down, and planned to leave and go home immediately.

So the couple hurriedly dragged their children to thank Liu again, refused Liu's repeated retention, and hurried to Lao Zhao's house.

But the strange thing is that when he was close to the gate of Lao Zhao's house, he couldn't hear Zhao Qiao's howl.

Zhao Siniang muttered in her heart: Huh? Could it be that you can't cry anymore, and you're at halftime now? However, she listened to the reaction of the masses, Zhao Qiaoshi would cry at least three times a day, and each time she would cry for at least half an hour, and she was full of energy without pause in between. It's only been a while, why can't you cry? It's not scientific!

The filial Zhao Yongzhong was afraid that her mother would cry, so he hurriedly rushed into the house. Zhao Siniang, who followed closely, carefully found that there was a donkey tied under the eaves of the old Zhao family, and then understood that it was estimated that there was a guest at home, so Zhao Qiao's family was reluctant not to cry.

Sure enough, when I walked to the hall, Zhao Qiaoshi, who was still making a lot of noise just now, was actually sitting quietly next to Old Man Zhao to accompany the guests, with a loving and kind expression on his face. And Zhao Chengqing, who was scathing and mean, pretended to be a little daughter-in-law, and fiddled with the handkerchief in his hand with low eyebrows.

After Zhao Yongzhong entered the hall, he was relieved to see his mother sitting upright. It was only then that he realized that there was a woman in her early forties sitting in the room.

"Dad, mother, we're back! This is ......," Zhao Yongzhong asked.

The woman was spitting on her words, and just as she was in the mood for it, she was suddenly interrupted, and her heart was displeased. She turned her head to take a look, and saw that Zhao Yongzhong and the others were all wearing coarse cloth clothes, and there were some greasy clothes on them, and she looked down on them very much.

"Old sister, who are these people?" The woman asked with a look of contempt.

Zhao Qiaoshi saw that Zhao Yongzhong's family actually came back, and it was very inappropriate to come back, and he was about to have a seizure. However, considering the existence of the woman, he swallowed the scolding that was about to be spoken.

Zhao Qiaoshi adjusted his expression and smiled at the woman with a flattering face: "This is my unsuccessful third family." But although you reassure the Wen family, they have been separated from our family and have nothing to do with our family. ”

The woman nodded, "That's good!" In fact, the Wen family has a big business, and it is nothing to take a few dollars to help poor relatives. It's just that some people can't get on the stage, knowing that the Wen family is developed, they always borrow money with their faces, which makes people annoyed. That's why I asked if there is such a person in your family. ”

Others just returned it, Zhao Sanniang was furious when she heard this, and was about to rush forward to theorize, but Zhao Siniang hurriedly stopped her when she saw this.

Although the woman was dressed in silk and looked quite decent, the colors were very unmatched, and she wore a bright red silk flower on her head. Looking at her expression and demeanor, she doesn't look like a woman from a good family. The word "matchmaker" flashed in front of Zhao Siniang's eyes.

As the saying goes, "Nine out of ten matchmakers say". At this time, if this matchmaker holds a grudge, who knows what rumors she will spread outside with her three-inch tongue. Although Zhao Sanniang is only thirteen years old this year, she always has to get married, and it is not worth it to delay a lifetime of happiness if she is quick to speak for a while.

So Zhao Siniang said with a smile: "Our grandmother is right, we really have nothing to do with the old Zhao family, and we will pack up and move away when we come back today." So auntie, just rest assured, we will never go to Gao Panwen's house. ”

The woman smiled with satisfaction when she saw that the poor devils were so knowledgeable.

Zhao Qiaoshi and Zhao Chengqing also smiled with satisfaction when they saw the woman's expression.

Only Old Man Zhao heard that the third room was going to move out, and he felt a trace of reluctance.

Although Old Man Zhao acquiesced to Zhao Qiao's repeated troubles, it was because the family really didn't have much cash at home, so they had to give up their three rooms for the sake of Zhao Dalang's future. But now that the Wen family, one of the best in Jinghai County, has taken a fancy to his little daughter, Zhao Dalang's future is guaranteed, and the five yuan is even more nothing. So the old man Zhao thought about letting Zhao Yongzhong's family return to the old Zhao family.

"The third child......"

Zhao Qiaoshi and Old Man Zhao have lived together for decades, and when they look at his expression, they can guess what he is thinking, and they hurriedly interrupted: "Old man, the children have hard wings and want to fly, since they insist on leaving, let them go!" This twisted melon is not sweet, and it will not benefit anyone to force them to stay! ”

Old Man Zhao secretly scolded in his heart: You old woman, you are fake and shrewd! I know that you are reluctant to pay the money, but our family will soon have a large amount of dowry in the account, take a little to pay off the debt to the third room, so that it is more cost-effective for them to stay! You do the math, although they have many children in the third room, they are all diligent and capable, and if they stay at home for a year, they can earn back the money. Moreover, when they came back, the four acres of land that had to be allocated to them when they were divided also came back, not to mention that the land itself was far more than worth five dollars, and its annual output was not a small amount!

But in front of other people, Old Man Zhao didn't say much, so he had to say: "You have to think about moving in the long run, don't be busy ...... first."

"Daddy!" Zhao Chengqing pouted and shouted.

This time, Zhao Chengqing, who had been pretending to be a lady next to him, was gone. The Wen family said that they didn't want poor relatives, and they would leave the third brother's family behind, so what should the Wang matchmaker do when she went back and said that the Wen family refused to marry her family?
