Chapter 19 Getting engaged at only 20?

I panicked, kicked over the jar, and dozens of small snakes quickly dispersed and crawled away.

"The old woman treasures this shabby shed all day long, there must be treasures there!"

Shen Jiaojiao said as she took the key to unlock the door: "Fortunately, I stole the key while she was drunk!"

With a 'click', the big lock was opened.

In an instant, more than a dozen little snakes jumped out, scaring Shen Jiaojiao and Widow Xu into screaming.

"Oh my God!"

"It scared me to death!"

I hid in the corner and didn't dare to say a word, even though two little snakes were hunched over and spitting red letters at me.

Widow Xu bent over and walked in, covering her nose: "As expected, they are all here!"

"I asked where did she get the money? It turned out to be selling snakes!"

Shen Jiaojiao didn't dare to come in, so she stood outside and said, "People say this thing is worth a lot of money if sold in the city."

"People in the city use it to make wine, and a jar costs hundreds of dollars!"

Widow Xu is greedy for money. When she heard that this thing was valuable, she didn't feel disgusted: "Quick, take them all away while the old woman is not around!"

Shen Jiaojiao curled her lips in disgust: "I won't touch it, it's disgusting."

"You damn girl, I sold the money to buy your dowry."

"Isn't Chen Hui coming to propose marriage soon?" Widow Xu urged her.

Probably thinking that she could get some of the money from the sale, Shen Jiaojiao helped Widow Xu carry a few jars out.

"Don't just take it all away, the old lady is still pregnant." Widow Xu reminded her.

After a while, the two of them stole a few cans and locked the shed.

I was so smoked that I almost vomited, and the two little snakes in front of me didn't know where they went.

My grandfather and grandmother didn't go home until noon.

Grandma kept showing off how powerful her niece was, marrying the only son of the village chief's family next door.

Widow Xu didn't like to hear it and rolled her eyes: "Our family is not bad at all. Chen Hui is from the city and his family does business!"

When grandma heard this, her eyes narrowed into slits: "This relationship is great, when will we set a date?"

Widow Xu raised her neck and said, "I'll come to you tomorrow to get engaged!"

My father frowned and took two puffs on his pipe: "How old is Jiaojiao? You can get engaged at 20?"

"Chen Hui's family has said that young people are easy to have children and will recover quickly in the future. It would be better to give their family three or five children!"

"Besides, if people are rich and have great careers, they like to have more children and be blessed!"

Widow Xu didn't take it seriously at all. When she married her ex-husband, she was younger than Shen Jiaojiao!

My grandma also joined in: "It will take decades for this to happen. At Jiaojiao's age, children will be running all over the floor!"

"It's better to settle down and start a family and start a career soon!"

My grandfather frowned and said nothing more. He never interfered in the affairs of Widow Xu’s children.

Even for his only grandson, Shen Zhuangzhuang, my father didn't say a word when Widow Xu said that he would send him to the county to study.

Probably thinking that Shen Jiaojiao was about to get engaged, I turned my head and gave me a fierce look.

"You damn girl who eats and drinks for free, you know how to give me eye drops (to cause trouble)!"

"After what happened with the second-rate son, who in these eight villages would dare to get engaged to you?"

Last time, she and Widow Xu planned a secret marriage for me, and some people in the village heard about it.

The scoundrel's mother hanged herself that night, and his brother also went crazy when he heard about it.

People in the village say that I have an evil nature, that maybe some thing has become a spirit and comes to harm people.

My father's face darkened: "Don't try to influence her!"

"You old fool, her own mother doesn't want her, she's a bastard from whom she might have been born, and it's not from the old Shen family!" My mother-in-law looked down on my mother, because she was a flower in every village in the world. , born so beautifully.

At that time, my father worked very hard to pursue my mother, chasing her and blocking her!

But who knew he would be such a jerk after getting married!

Actually, I don't blame her for leaving me here, after all, my existence is also a thorn in her side.

But, how can any child miss his mother? Therefore, every year after studying, he would write her a letter and mail it to her on his birthday.

When I thought that Shen Jiaojiao had hidden the letter my mother gave me, I clenched my fists and had to find a chance to get it back!

Actually, I thought about asking Jing Yuan to get it back for me, but I didn't want to do that.

I don't want to get involved too much with him, and I feel awkward.

"Go, go, go away, I'll get annoyed when I see you!" My grandma got more and more angry as she thought about it, so she grabbed a handful of melon seed peels and threw them at me.

I don’t want to stay here and clean up the mess on the table for them, then turn around and leave.
