Chapter 218 Aunt Lan
The implication was obvious, but Aunt Lan didn't know if she didn't understand or understood, pretended not to understand, and just waved her hand and said, "You go and do it, don't worry, I'll just sit here."
Zhang forced a smile. He really didn't expect someone to be so thick-skinned, but after all, they really had no malice and it was hard to tear off the skin, so he had to give up.
When Zhang left, only Aunt Lan and Jin Dazhong were left in the main room. Jin Dazhong was really embarrassed to sit, so he found an excuse to go out. Only Du sat firmly on the chair, without feeling inappropriate, and chatted with Aunt Lan very enthusiastically.
Originally, Aunt Lan was thinking about carefully investigating Taohua's affairs, so she was naturally happy to chat with her. However, no matter how Du asked, she didn't find out what Aunt Lan's specific situation was. She only knew that her family was well off. However, the other party learned about the Jin family. It was ridiculous that Du didn't know what she thought, but even the Taohua family and the old house were not friendly.
Taohua, who was eavesdropping outside the door, curled her lips. This Du really said everything.
"But when it comes to the peach blossom family, they are the grandsons we grew up in. Since the old sister's house is in Xicheng, the four trees are not far away. Mr. Su must have heard of it. People say that Mr. Su had been a high-ranking official in the capital in the early years. Now he has retired and returned home after retirement. When Yiming School started school, the county magistrate came to give a speech in person. Besides, Mr. Su is really a man of the people, gentle and elegant. Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk
"Oh? That's true?" Aunt Lan suspected, "How could such a good family be?"
How could he agree to marry a rural woman in his family? Taohua automatically filled in his heart.
"Taohua, you--" Taohua was just listening to it. I didn't know when Lihua came from the backyard. Carrying a basket of vegetables, Taohua quickly pulled her aside and raised her index finger and booed quietly.
Lihua was puzzled, but immediately lowered her body as she spoke, squatted down quietly next to Taohua, and quietly glanced at the inner room while asking when.
Taohua quickly explained to her briefly.
Li Hua covered her mouth and laughed, "Is someone here to propose a marriage?"
"You are still laughing!" Taohua rolled her eyes.
The two sisters here were whispering, and there were constant voices inside.
"Well," Du paused for a moment, meaning something, "is it a bit complicated?"
"My sister is really anxious. If you have anything to do, just say it directly. If you don't say it halfway, it will make people feel itchy!" Aunt Lan said anxiously.
"Ahem, look at this, it's not convenient for me to say anything like an old lady. Anyway, as long as you marry well, you'll have a good marriage. After all, how can you do if you don't care about a person like Mr. Su? You said yes?"
Du passed by a look, Aunt Lan knew it, and the two nodded tacitly.
"Oh, I like that girl Taohua at first sight. She is so smart and smart, she will definitely be a family in the future. I didn't expect it." Aunt Lan shook her head, "That boy in my family, I just want to find him a smart, kind and simple person. If you have too many wise eyes, it would be bad."
"Isn't it? In fact, all the girls here are very good, and there is more than just peach blossoms..."
"What are you talking nonsense?" Lihua next to her had long been unable to listen. Taohua rushed out without holding her down, pointing at Du and cursing: "You shrew, you still don't understand the affairs of your family, and you are still running to our house to make trouble now, right? You explain clearly what it means to be careful? Our Taohua is good, it's your turn to talk about it here? Which onion and garlic are you? If you don't explain it clearly today, don't think about this door!"
"Which one is this?" Aunt Lan was frightened by the roar of Lihua.
"Lihua, is there such a thing as you talking to your elders?" Du's eyes dodged and said with a guilty look. Seeing Lihua pointing at her, she couldn't help but take a step back.
"Ha," Li Hua smiled angrily, "You have the nerve to call yourself an elder! I want to ask which elders in the family are chewing the younger generation's tongue behind them, so you won't laugh out loud if you say it! Now who in the village doesn't know-"
"Pear!" Du said sternly, "Don't talk nonsense in front of outsiders." He turned his face and said to Aunt Lan: "I'm so embarrassed, this old sister, I let you laugh at it. Look, my third brother's family is in trouble today, I'm afraid I can't entertain you. Why don't you go to my house, right?"
Lihua was not convinced, so she had to say something. Taohua pulled her. No matter what, she was still the Jin family. If she really wanted to make a fuss outside, she would suffer the loss after all, which was not cost-effective. Moreover, Taohua also found out about Du's idea.
"How can I be so embarrassed?" Aunt Lan stood up, looked at the two sisters Lihua and said, "Then I'll come again someday."
Du happened to leave quickly, she was really afraid that Li Hua would say something inappropriate.
After leaving Taohua's house, Aunt Lan couldn't help but shake her head. She came here in vain. She thought she could find a satisfactory wife for her son, but she was worried about this matter. She saw one after another, but she was not satisfied with it. She was either too smart or too stupid. But when she saw Taohua that day, she was happy when she saw it, and then she observed it and found that she was very smart and well-behaved and not ostentatious. She was the kind of person who felt relieved when she saw it. She was not like some smart girls, afraid that people would not know that they were smart, but instead made people feel uneasy. But this family was very alert to her and was not thoroughly alert.
Fortunately, Xicheng is not big, so she was able to find out after paying attention. When she saw that it was a farmer and her family background was innocent, she couldn't help but feel more relieved. Unexpectedly, she thought that their family was poor and it would be convenient for her to come to propose marriage. However, in just a few months, the Taohua family suddenly opened a restaurant in the city, and the business looked better and better. If she didn't take action in time, the other party might not agree. But as long as she concealed it well, she would have no choice after she got married.
But even if the plan is good, it cannot keep up with the changes in the world. Peach Blossom actually promised others! It would be fine if it was a farmer family. It would be fine. I might as well take out some more money to achieve this marriage, but I was born in the Su family. It seems that I don’t need to think about Peach Blossom anymore. Although I heard that Tao Blossom used some means to marry the Su family, she naturally would not believe it. What kind of family is the Su family? Although she has never seen it, she has heard of the people coming and going in the city. How can even treat the county magistrate respectfully be fooled by a little girl? It is just a village woman like Du just gossiped in front of outsiders.
Thinking of his son, a trace of pain slipped through Aunt Lan's eyes.
After rejecting Du's invitation to go to the old house of the Jin family, Aunt Lan hurried back. Du did not force her to stay. Since she knew where the other party lived, she naturally would not worry about not having a chance to meet again, but she had to carefully consider how to solve this problem.
But what Du Shi didn't expect was that as soon as she walked to her door, she saw Ergouzi standing at the door, holding big and small bags of things in her hand.
This Ergouzi is a famous second-rate man in several nearby villages. Although it is not as good as everyone shouts and beats, no one gives a good face. When they meet, they either sarcastically or avoid snakes and scorpions, which shows how bad it is.
"What are you doing at our doorstep?" Du was holding his anger and had nowhere to speak. When he saw Ergouzi, he naturally had no good expression. His tone should be as cold as possible. However, Ergouzi's words made Du's angry.
"I am here to propose marriage!"
After Taohua finished lunch, the family sat around and talked about Aunt Lan. Jingsheng was not here in the morning and didn't know the whole story. He was surprised when he heard this. He couldn't help but look at his own girl. It was really the girl who had grown up, and everyone who came to marry came to the house in person. Zhang warned his brothers and sisters not to talk too much when they saw Aunt Lan. The brothers and sisters nodded one after another.
Mingsheng, who was confused, said, "Didn't it say that Sister Taohua has already promised Brother Jinchen? Is it because their family did not give a betrothal gift that other family members come to find Sister Taohua?"
The atmosphere suddenly fell silent.
"What's wrong? Did I say the wrong thing?" As if I noticed something was wrong, Mingsheng shrank and lowered his head.
However, as Mingsheng said, Su Jinchen himself had a lot of ideas in the marriage between Taohua and Su Jinchen. As for the elders of the Su family, they had a vague attitude. However, they could figure out the attitude of Mr. Su and Su Yunju in their daily lives. The reason why the marriage letter was not officially released was probably because of Mrs. Su. No wonder Mingsheng said that.
Seeing that her parents looked a little ugly, Taohua smiled and said, "What are you saying? Is it because my sister is so charming? Do you know if you know?!"
Although I smiled now, Taohua didn't care about those stupid things, and just wanted the two of them to be in harmony, but since I came here and wanted to live here, these secular things must be available, so I can save my parents' worries. However, with the few unpleasant meetings with Mrs. Su, Taohua knew in her heart that it was indeed a sad hurdle. It seemed that even if she was not happy, if she wanted to have a better future journey, she would still have to take the initiative to learn about this future mother-in-law. But now she has no plans to get married, so take the time to take it.
But this day was really full of twists and turns. Before I could finish my life, my door panel was snapped again. This time it was Yan Zi.
Before Taohua could ask anything, swallows poured beans and said, "Ergouzi went to the Jin family to propose marriage!"
"Who?" Taohua thought she had heard it wrong.
"Ergouzi!"
"What!" Lihua, who was standing beside her, widened her eyes, "Is he crazy?"
Yes, who gave him the courage to propose marriage? Taohua also smiled, but then her smile subsided, and a terrible thought came to my mind. Could this Ergouzi be the one who was in the inn that day, right?
"I heard that he is the father of the child! I happened to pass by there and heard it, so I hurried back and talked to you. I also saw Uncle Jin San and the others were there too."
really……
"Are you talking nonsense?" Although Lihua doesn't like Jin Yu'er, she doesn't want her sister to be bullied by such people. You should know Ergouzi's character is well known from afar.
It was not impossible. Ignoring the murmurs of the two people beside me, Taohua slowly sat on the chair, thinking that Jin Yu'er had colluded with Ergouzi to bully her when she was in school. They knew each other at that time, and then they thought of a series of things in the inn. It seemed that Jin Yu'er had a good plan. She originally planned to make herself dizzy and then let Ergouzi come, but she was self-defeating.
It is impossible to say that he is not afraid of it. Taohua couldn't help but sweat her palms, repeatedly reminding herself not to be merciful and not to just live by. If it weren't for a coincidence, she was too careful at that time, and she was afraid that she would... Taohua couldn't help feeling disgusted when she thought of Ergouzi's face. No wonder Jin Yu'er was so angry that she wanted to kill herself, but she was afraid that she would take her anger after learning that she was pregnant.
Peach blossom's eyes shone coldly, and she almost fell on someone again and again. She was really gnawed by a dog and kicked by a donkey.
"Taohua, where are you going?" Lihua, who was beside her, suddenly stood up and walked towards the door and asked casually.
"Go out if you have something to do." Taohua didn't even look back. Before leaving the door, she suddenly looked back at Yanzi and said, "Was there anyone else present when you saw it just now?"
"That's gone. I'm afraid I'm always at home because it's cold."
Taohua nodded and felt a little relieved.
Walking on the way to the old house, Taohua was thinking about the whole story in her mind. Jin Yu'er had learned the lesson she deserved. If she didn't want the matter to continue to spread, she must stop it in time. This matter can be big or small, and if it is not done well, their family will suffer. She doesn't care about these things all the time, and if others say it, half a pound of meat is indispensable.
But their parents are not good. They have deep-rooted thoughts and are stung by others behind their backs and say that the Jin family is so good. They will definitely feel bad.
Lihua is not allowed either. She already has a lover and will get married sooner or later. If Jin Yu'er's affairs are really out of control, Lihua may not be affected by her when she goes to her husband's house.
There is even more so, the elder brother and Mingsheng. The elder brother is old and may have started a little late in his studies, but Mingsheng is still young. If he goes to a career in the future, a sister whose reputation has been damaged will definitely have an impact. She has long seen the feudal level of this era and must be cautious in everything. If she is alone, she can naturally be without any scruples. But if she wants to survive well in this era, she must not be able to follow her temperament.
When I arrived at the old house, it turned out that I had seen no one, but I didn’t see Ergouzi either. I thought I was probably driven away.
The door was firmly inserted from the inside, and it must be pushed open with a slight push when there were people in the family before and it was blue and white.
He knocked on the door lightly, and there was no movement inside.
"Mom, are you here? It's me." Taohua shouted.
After waiting for a while, the door creaked open. Zhang walked out of the inside with a haggard look and whispered: "Why are you here?"
"Come here and take a look." Taohua said, and as Zhang entered the house, he briefly told the Swallow.
Zhang knew that this girl was a troublemaker, so she didn't rush her back.
