Chapter 123: Good Family

"Big sister?" Mian Tao looked at the star fruit in disbelief, this was the first time she was so firm and so hard.

Carambola clenched her hands tightly and looked firm: "In our countryside, Shuanghe Village is the best and richest village, and how many girls are looking forward to marrying her." What's more, the other party is the only son of the chief, and now he is studying accounts, and he has a great future. Besides, this is our aunt's matchmaker, and there will be no lies to deceive us. You have passed and you have been blessed. When the time comes, our aunt will be both your aunt and your little mother-in-law, and I will rest assured that she will take care of you. ”

"But I don't want to!" Mian Tao became a little nervous at this time: "Second sister hasn't moved yet, what are you doing to be anxious about me?" Besides, I haven't met this Jiang Tong in person, but what's the use of his father and mother taking a fancy to it? If he doesn't like it, he will become a relative in the future, that is, he will have his aunt to follow him, or his in-laws will stand on my side, Jiang Tong is unwilling, who can bear him? ”

"Good cotton, this time you listen to me. This good family business must not be missed. Carambola rubbed her hands and pondered: "I'll go to Shuanghe Village tomorrow, discuss it with my aunt, and ask you to meet Jiang Tong by chance, won't this problem be solved?" If he likes you, you don't want to say anything you don't want to!! ”

"I ......" Mian Tao wanted to say something more, but was pushed off the kang by the star fruit: "Okay, this matter is settled." Although you and the fourth child in our family have many ideas and big ideas, I am the one who has the big ideas, and I am still the boss of this family after all. Gotta listen to me!! ”

Mian Tao had no choice but to retreat from the back room, thinking about how to fool this matter over.

The carambola moved quickly, and adjusted the rest day that night, changed her with the walnuts that should take turns on the second day, and went to Shuanghe Village early in the morning of the second day to tell He Xiaomei about it.

The two aunts and nephews discussed and came up with a way to make the two meet by chance.

In ancient times, whether it was a rural area or a county town, especially those in large households, most of the people who got married did not know each other before they got married. In ancient times, conservative thinking did not allow men and women to meet in private. So Mian Tao and Jiang Tong want to meet each other, unless they meet by chance.

The idea that star fruit and He Xiaomei came up with was to ask Jiang Tong to go to Wuhuahua for a meal.

Eating is a normal thing, and Mian Tao is opening a wine inn, so it is much more reasonable for the two to meet each other in this case. And during the time of a meal, the two of them can watch it as long as they want, and it is okay to say a few words if they want.

It's just that he only told Jiang Tong about this, but he didn't communicate with Miantao. Star fruit is also not concerned this time.

On this day, Mian Tao lay on the counter to settle the bill for a table that had just finished eating, feeling itchy on her face, and there was a strong sense of being watched. looked around, but no one looked at her. Look down again, and that feeling will come again.

With a smile on the way to the checkout, Mian Tao swept the hall again, and found that a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy sitting alone in the northwest corner had an unnatural face.

Looking closely, this young man's delicate eyebrows, high nose bridge, and very white complexion make him look like a son and brother of a rich and noble family. It's just that the clothes he wears show that although his family is wealthy, he is not a son. Now, the young man was aware of his own scrutiny, and a little blush appeared on his face, and the white skin on the lining was more transparent.

He hung his head slightly shyly, staring at the plate of peanuts in front of him with his eyelashes, his hands clenched tightly because of nervousness. And because he was sitting alone, it was particularly obvious and strange.

Mian Tao thought a little in her heart, stopped a plate of side dishes from the cherry that had just come out of the back hall, asked for the table, and sent it over in person. After putting the dishes away, he stood up to the young man and said softly: "Guest officer, what do you need?" ”

"No, no, no." The young man didn't seem to expect Cotton Peach to talk to him, and waved his hands in a panic, and his translucent white cheeks looked extraordinarily smooth and white because of the redness.

Mian Tao stared at him carefully, hissed slightly, bent down, and leaned into his ear: "Guest officer...... But from Twin Rivers? ”

The young man was stunned: "How do you know?" ”

Mian Tao was relieved, and said, "Your father is the head of Shuanghe Village?" ”

"yes." The young man nodded again, as if he suddenly thought of something, and his face turned even redder: "This, this is also arranged by my fourth aunt and your aunt." Originally, this fact was not in compliance with the distance, but if you asked for this, my father and my mother agreed. That, that ......"

"I see!" Mian Tao sighed lightly: "It's just nonsense." You and I are both young, what are they doing in such a hurry? actually arranged a coincidence, which really made people laugh and cry. ”

Jiang Tong was a little anxious: "Girl, you ......"

Mian Tao looked left and right, and lowered her voice again: "You and I are still young, and it's too early to mention this fact." I don't think you want to see me like this today. As for me, I've always been a thick-skinned person, you can tell your parents that you don't want to, I can stand it, but if it doesn't happen. ”

"But, ......" The young man blushed again, and also lowered his voice, looking at the cotton peach with earnest eyes: "The girl didn't fancy me?" You...... Don't look at my thinness, but I also have a lot of strength, and I can afford to do all kinds of rough and heavy work......" This was difficult, and before he finished speaking, his face was already red.

"No, no, no." Mian Tao didn't notice Jiang Tong's strange appearance, and hurriedly wiped the black ash on his face: "With conditions and characters like you, where can I afford to be like me?" I also know that you are on the orders of your parents, and it is very difficult to do it. But after all, this is a big deal, and it can't be ignored. In the end, it will definitely be a failure, so it is better to explain it now. When the time comes, I will go home and pretend not to know about it, and when you go home, you will say that you don't like it, this matter is over, quietly, how good? ”

"But......" Jiang Tong stiffened, and his whole face turned red: "But I didn't look down on the girl......"

"Huh?" Mian Tao was slightly stunned, and then she was a little embarrassed, blinked twice, and said, "So ......"

Seeing Mian Tao's expression, Jiang Tong was a little disappointed: "I can see it, the girl doesn't look down on me." Come to think of it, you are so capable, you open a small wine inn, and I am just an unborn tent, what can I compare with you? If you don't want to, just say yes, and I won't embarrass you. ”

"It's not that I look down on you." When Mian Tao heard him say this, she first breathed a sigh of relief, and then quickly explained: "It's just that I'm too young, and the store at home is busy now, so I really don't have time to distract from these things." But my sister is determined to do this this time, so I have to bother you to go home and say something......"

"Say I don't want to?" Jiang Tong laughed as if he was about to cry: "As long as the girl is willing, I can do anything." ”

Mian Tao smiled relaxedly: "Thank you very much." ”

"Thank you, this matter was originally mentioned by my father and my mother, and we caused you trouble." Jiang Tong puffed up and said, "But I have to say, you are young, and I am not too old." I'll only be seventeen or eighteen in two or three years. After two or three years, you can't use this excuse to prevaricate me. ”

This time, the cotton peach was slightly stunned: "Huh? ”

"Okay, I've eaten the meal, you've seen the people, we've talked so much, if we stay any longer, it's really going to be out of order." Jiang Tong got up lightly and left a few grains of broken silver on the table: "I will handle this matter, you can rest assured." But next time, I won't help you. As he spoke, the man had already taken two or three steps out.

When Mian Tao reacted, the person was gone.

"You ...... money" Mian Tao paused, and her voice lowered: "Give too much......"

Although the star fruit knew that Jiang Tong was coming to the store, they didn't know Jiang Tong, so they didn't know that Jiang Tong had already come.

Two days later, a letter came from Shuanghe Village, saying that Jiang Tong didn't take a fancy to it.

As if she hadn't seen star fruit, she felt panicked. While comforting Mian Tao, he privately complained to a few sisters that Jiang Tong's eyes were not good, and he couldn't look down on people like Mian Tao, did he still want to marry a fairy daughter back? He didn't want to, she didn't want to give her sister to him.

Mian Tao knew it in her heart, and she didn't say much. This matter was supposed to settle down for a few days, and then it passed.

But it happened that when it was the turn of star fruit to rest on this day, I met the Lizhen Lixia sisters on the edge of the village.

When Lizhen saw that there was only one star fruit, her eyebrows were slightly raised, so she gently poked Lixia.

Lixia stepped forward to greet the star fruit without smiling: "Sister star fruit, aren't you going to the wine inn today?" ”

"Today I have a rotation." Star fruit has always been a kind person, and there is no big prejudice against these two sisters.

"So you, where are you going?" Lixia turned around and looked at Lizhen with bad intentions, and the smile on her face deepened: "Are you going to Shuanghe Village?" ”

"Huh?" Carambola was slightly stunned, and immediately became a little alert: "What am I going to do in Shuanghe Village?" ”

"What else?" Lixia tilted her head slightly and squinted at the star fruit: "I heard from Walnut a few days ago that someone told Mian Tao about the family affairs of the eldest son of Shuanghe Village?" As he spoke, he covered his cheeks vigorously: "Such a good thing, but I really envy our sisters!" Cotton peach is a good blessing! ”

"Walnuts?" Carambola twisted her eyebrows and gritted her teeth gently, this Nizi just couldn't keep her mouth shut, so she asked someone to do a set, so she put the words away.

Lixia's face turned, and she was happy: "But looking at the current situation, it seems that people don't look down on cotton peaches?" ”

Lizhen glanced at the star fruit lightly, and looked at her slender hand with a smile: "Everyone wants good relatives, but that's not what everyone can get." ”

"What are you talking about?" The carambola sister was anxious and a little angry.

"What?" Lixia suppressed the smile on her face, revealing a look of disdain and contempt: "Hmph!! The toad wants to eat swan meat, but he can't help himself! That's it!! ”
