Chapter 66: Everyone is happy

"It is said that your eldest brother Zhu is a few years older than me, so it's okay to marry first."

"You don't know, although my niece is famous for her good looks, but the fortune teller in her next life said that she is a husband and a child. So now that I'm seventeen, no one has come to the door to propose marriage. ”

"Aunt Wu, I'm going to persuade you. This kind of thing can't be trusted at all, and few of those fortune tellers have real skills, and they just talk nonsense and cheat money. If Brother Zhu and that girl are affectionate and righteous, you can't break them up because of this. ”

"Don't you know, the blind man Wu who told the fortune is from our village. Usually whoever loses something, he looks for him every day, and he is very smart. ”

"If that kind of liar says everything is good, how can he make money?"

"But....." Wu has always admired Qi Ning very much, and she was a little hesitant when Qi Ning said this.

"Is there any filth between that blind man and your cousin's family, or is there a bit of a discord between the two families?"

"No, right? Haven't heard of it. Wu recalled vigorously, in fact, she also hoped that her son would marry and let her hold her grandson as soon as possible, but because her niece's life was not good, she rejected her son a few days ago. Her son was lying at home on a hunger strike, not even drinking water, and she had no choice but to come to Qi Ning to complain.

"If your niece doesn't have this reputation, can you and your uncle agree to this marriage?"

"Of course, I can't ask for it, my niece is not only beautiful, but also kind-hearted, and very capable, and she will embroider things at the age of seven to earn money. Her father and brother also love her very much, or they would have married her to a widower or something. ”

"You go back and ask your cousin, and secretly ask your niece if she is interested in your son. If it's interesting, you can ask your cousin to report to the official to accuse him of cheating the township and misleading the marriage. ”

"This? Will it work? ”

"You just have to ask first, your cousin definitely doesn't want his daughter to be unable to marry with this reputation for the rest of her life, right? If your cousin agrees to report to the official, you can come back and tell me, and I will let Zhou Zhutou take someone there. ”

"Can you go to the headhunter that week?" Wu knew that Qi Ning was very familiar with the people in the Yamen, but he was still not sure in his heart.

"You just have to ask first, if your cousin agrees to report to the official, I will tell Zhou Zhutou. Leave the rest alone. ”

"That's okay, I'll pack up and go back to my parents' house, you wait for my news. If it does, I'll ask my son to kowtow to you. "Wu is also a cheerful person, and if he makes up his mind, he will do it immediately.

"Hahaha, don't scare me, auntie, just invite me over to eat something good when the time comes." Qi Ning didn't take it seriously, and stood up with a smile and sent it to Wu.

The next morning, the Wu family came excitedly: "Miss Qi, you are the great benefactor of our two families, yesterday I went back to ask, my cousin thought for a long time before remembering that his father and Wu's blind father were uncles and brothers, and the old people of the two families had some dirty problems when they split up." Later generations have not moved around much, and it is estimated that the blind man Wu deliberately harmed my niece. ”

"Would your cousin be willing to report to the police?"

"When it comes to reporting officials, how can we ordinary people not be afraid. But I told him that there is a girl and you will come forward, so it must be no problem. And he agreed. ”

"Nacheng, Handong, you ask Tie Niu to go to Zhou Zhutou, just say that I need his help with something, and let him come over for dinner at night."

"Yes." Handong is also a good thing, so he went out and ordered Tie Niu to go.

"Then I'll go first, go back and wait for the girl's news, and I'll pay for Zhou Zhutou's dinner." Wu said that he would have to pay for it when he took out his purse.

"Auntie, what are you doing here? Underestimate me, don't you? Our neighbors over the years, you have taken a lot of care of me, I have never been polite to you, a meal, you still have to give money? If you really don't want to go, when I go to your house one day, you can secretly give me some delicious food, and I will be starved to death by them. ”

"Doesn't that break the bank?" Wu insisted on paying for it, but Qi Ning covered her hand vigorously.

"Auntie, I'm not happy anymore." Qi Ning pursed her lips as she spoke.

"No, you're double now, you can't be in a bad mood. I just don't give it. Take the time for you to go over and play, and I'll make you something to eat, and don't tell them. ”

"Well, that's right." Qi Ning smiled and let go of his hand.

Wu left with mixed feelings.

Zhou Zhutou didn't wait for dinner in the evening, and came back directly with Tie Niu. Han Dong led him to the courtyard, and Qi Ning came out and told him everything in detail.

"Okay, got it. This kind of thing is very easy to do, you just have to listen to the news at home. I'm leaving. "I'm leaving.

"Brother Zhou, will you leave after eating?"

"No, we don't need these for the two families, your sister-in-law will cook at night and wait for me at home. I'll ask my mother to bring your nephew to play another day. ”

"Okay, Brother Zhou go slowly."

The next day, Zhou Zhutou didn't return to the adult, so he found an excuse and took the two servants to Xiaowuzhuang.

I came back when it was dark, and directly asked the housekeeper to tell Qi Ning the result, and left with people without eating.

"Young grandmother, Zhou Zhutou said that the chain has not yet been put on the neck of Wu Blind, he will confess 1510, he doesn't know a big word, he can't tell fortunes at all, there are a few times when people in the village lose something, he asked his son to steal it in advance and put it in a place, and then tell people when they are looking for him to count. Some people have long known other people's affairs, so they use the topic to play. Everything else is nonsense. Because he didn't collect much every time he told people's fortunes, it was just some grain, rice, noodles, a few catties of meat, and a dozen eggs, so Zhou Zhutou dragged him and his son to the village to beat a board and put them away. ”

"Well, in the future, you should remember not to believe these things. There are great people in this world, but they will definitely not rely on this swagger to cheat people and make money. ”

"Yes, Grandma is right." The butler answered and went out.

"Handong, you go to Aunt Wu's house and tell her, her son has been on hunger strike for several days."

"Hey, I'll go." Han Dong put down the needle and thread in his hand and went to Wu's house to spread the word.

Wu came to thank him the next day, and then took the matchmaker back to his mother's village to propose marriage.

Wu's cousin agreed to the marriage because he was grateful to her and Qi Ning for helping her daughter eliminate Kefu's reputation.

The bride price was not much, so it was given by the Wu family, and the two families agreed on the marriage amicably, because the two of them were not young, and they were married next month, and they would get married on August 18. It was originally a bitter love scene, but now everyone is happy, and Qi Ning is also happy.
