Grandma Xiangxing also realized that she had said the wrong thing, but it was impossible to apologize if she apologized, and even said stiffly: "Look, you haven't seen it, how can you conclude that Fang Gongzi is sick after listening to a few words from others?" What if people are jealous of our family and want to marry her daughter into the Fang family? ”

Shen Guihua simply didn't know how to justify with this old lady, and said toughly: "We saw with our own eyes that Fang Gongzi was pulling and pulling with a kiln sister on the street, whether it was true or not, my daughter can't push into the fire pit." ”

"Alas, how can a man not steal, that is, if he doesn't marry Fang Gongzi, the man who marries in the future won't go to that kind of place? Three wives and four concubines in large families are commonplace, why can't you think about it? ”

Shen Guihua ignored her anymore, Grandma Xiangxing wanted to say anything more, and when she saw Lin Xiaoman standing at the gate of the courtyard, she was a little embarrassed, "Xiaoman is here, are you here to find Xiangxing?" ”

Lin Xiaoman said 'um', "My family has recently opened a business in the city, and I am a little busy, and I want to ask Aunt Osmanthus and Xiangxing if they are empty." ”

When Grandma Xiangxing heard that there was a job to find the two of them to do, she immediately smiled, "The eldest daughter-in-law, Xiangxing, Xiaoman is looking for you." ”

As early as when she heard the old lady shouting Lin Xiaoman, Shen Guihua walked out, and just pushed the door out at this time, "Xiaoman, go into your aunt's house and sit." ”

After speaking, he picked up Lin Xiaoman and walked into the house, without even looking at the old lady, the old lady muttered something in the back, because the voice was too small Lin Xiaoman didn't hear clearly, but it was not a good thing to think.

In the room, Lin Xiangxing was sitting on the edge of the bed, holding an embroidery frame in her hand, but her mind was not on the embroidery at all, and when she saw Lin Xiaoman coming in, she reluctantly smiled at her.

"Xiaoman, you sit, my aunt will pour you water to drink."

"Aunt Osmanthus don't be busy, I'm just here to talk to you and Xiangxing."

After speaking, she sat down beside Lin Xiangxing, took the embroidery frame in her hand, and gently stroked a branch of apricot blossom embroidered on it, "Xiangxing's embroidery work is really good, unlike me, I will sew and mend, embroider a mandarin duck and my mother say that it is like a duck with plague." ”

Shen Guihua was amused by her self-deprecation, and the resentment that she had just argued with her mother-in-law dissipated a lot, "You girl is just funny talking, Xiangxing has been depressed about that matter these days, you can come over to accompany her more when you are idle, or take her to help you." ”

Lin Xiaoman nodded hurriedly, "Is this still said by Aunt Osmanthus?" I came here today to ask you and Xiangxing if they would like to help me. ”

Without waiting for Shen Guihua to speak, Grandma Xiangxing's voice came from outside the window, "Wish, why don't you want to?" Xiaoman, your mother and Osmanthus were good when they were young, and you and Xiangxing also grew up together, so you can't treat them badly. ”

Lin Xiaoman pursed his lips and looked at Shen Guihua, Shen Guihua frowned in disgust, "Mother, let's talk to Xiaoman for a while, and you won't have to squat under the window all the time." ”

"I didn't listen to the window, you talk so loudly, and you have to pretend to be deaf?" Grandma Xiangxing muttered, but soon the footsteps moved from under the window to the middle of the yard, but she still didn't plan to leave.

Shen Guihua helplessly spread her hands towards Lin Xiaoman, Lin Xiaoman shook his head with a smile, and his voice was a little softer, "I thought that today's business is with the clan, but my mother also left us a few profitable deals, in the past, she said that when she bought a shop in the city and settled down, she would let Aunt Osmanthus and Xiangxing also go to the city to open a shop together, and they would take care of it together, but ...... Alas, now that I have separated from that side, and I have settled down in the city, I want to fulfill my mother's last wish, Aunt Osmanthus, if you and Xiangxing are willing, go to the city with me, and I will teach you the livelihood that my mother left you. ”

"Xiaoman, why does your mother remember me?"

Thinking of her friendship with Xiao Manniang, Shen Guihua's eyes turned red.

She and Xiao Manniang have a small friendship, and the two of them have discussed to marry in one place. Xiaoman said that her mother had left her own livelihood, and she believed it.

But it also reminded her of the good luck of her good sister again, and she hated Mrs. Lin even more in her heart.

"That's Aunt Osmanthus who remembers us everything, this year I and Erhu have suffered a lot at Grandma's, if it weren't for Aunt Osmanthus secretly sending us stuttering from time to time, it's hard to say whether our sisters and brothers can survive this year."

Shen Guihua choked and waved her hand, "Don't say it, your mother and your Aunt Osmanthus know it, you just say what you want Aunt Osmanthus to do, right?" ”

Lin Xiaoman said what he had thought about last night, "Aunt Osmanthus will go to my house again tomorrow, and I will make delicious food for you and Xiangxing, and you will decide whether to make it after you taste it." ”

Shen Guihua looked at Lin Xiangxing, knowing that Lin Xiaoman knew that Li Tiezhu's family was coming to propose marriage today, saying that it was for their mother and daughter's livelihood, but in fact, she also wanted to give Xiangxing's dowry.

Lin Xiangxing also understood Lin Xiaoman's good intentions, and tears flowed down, "Xiaoman, why are you so good?" ”

Lin Xiaoman put his arm around her shoulder, "Good sister, don't talk about this, I and Erhu have made money, and we can't watch you live a poor life, right?" ”

As he was talking, he heard someone outside the hospital ask, "Is this Lin Mancang's house?" ”

Lin Mancang is the name of Lin Xiangxing's grandfather, although the old man has passed away, the people in the village still like to call it that.

In the yard, Grandma Xiangxing asked, "Who are you looking for?" ”

The first person to speak laughed, "I am from Liujiazhuang, my surname is Cheng, my husband's surname is Liu, I am the Zhuang household of Liujiazhuang, everyone else is called my sister-in-law Cheng, I came today to talk to your family, you are your grandmother, right?" The body is really tough. ”

Shen Guihua rushed to the window first, looking out through the crack in the window, and Lin Xiaoman also looked at the crack in the window below.

I saw three people standing in front of the courtyard gate, one dressed up in a fancy way was a matchmaker at a glance, and it was Li Tiezhu who followed her?

Li Tiezhu was followed by a tall, thin and small long-faced woman who should be his mother.

The woman's long face was full of smiles, but the smile was full of calculation and disdain, and after a pair of small eyes swept around the courtyard, the corners of her mouth turned to the sides, obviously not very satisfied with Lin Xiangxing's family.

Grandma Xiangxing was a little stunned by her shouting, "Don't shout nonsense, which baby do you want to kiss my family?" ”

Sister-in-law Cheng pointed to Li Tiezhu's mother and son next to her, "It's Li Tiezhu from Liujiazhuang, this is his sister-in-law Zhao, and she is the nurse of the eldest son of Liujiazhuang." Since the two children are in love, asking me to be the matchmaker is just a formality. Today, when the in-laws see the in-laws, let's not be empty, sit down and settle the family affairs first. Pick a good day to pick up the bride at your house, and your dowry can be prepared. ”

Originally, when she told Li Tiezhu about finding someone to propose marriage, Lin Xiangxing was both looking forward to it and apprehensive, but after listening to Cheng's sister-in-law's words, Lin Xiangxing's face turned white and she couldn't stop trembling.

How is this like a marriage proposal? obviously just wants to ruin her reputation, she doesn't have to give a dowry, she has to marry!

Could it be that she was blind and saw the wrong person?
