Mr. Chen Xiang was silent.

Huang Minglan mistakenly took his silence as acquiescence.

After all, no matter where she goes to talk about things like this, she always makes excuses.

I originally thought that this matter would not be resolved easily today.

Unexpectedly, God helped her, so Mr. Chen Xiang and so many village chiefs gathered here.

"All the village chiefs and fellow villagers are here, please comment. I, the third aunt, carefully selected for her, and was even willing to spend my own money to buy her a dowry of five taels of silver. But not only did she not appreciate it, she also turned the other way.

It is simply unreasonable to insult me ​​and my sister from the Liu family!"

After that, Mrs. Liu also came out to add firewood to the fire.

"That's right, at first I said I would give her a dowry gift of two taels of silver, but she thought it was too little. In order to show the sincerity of my Liu family, I bought another one or three taels of silver. I can marry a scholar's daughter. She

But still not satisfied!”

The two of them sang together.

I originally thought that I would spend so much money to marry Yi Mingxue, a country girl.

The villagers will definitely see how greedy Yi Mingxue is.

Unexpectedly, after everyone heard about the betrothal gifts and dowry they gave, they all covered their stomachs and burst out laughing.

"Did I hear you right? You want to marry Yi Daya for only three taels of silver? Hahahaha——"

"It made me laugh! Don't they know? Da Ya made a net profit of eighty taels just from selling melons. This does not include the income from her car shop and winter rice. Those two businesses are even more incredible!"

Huang Minglan and the Liu family were shocked when they heard this.

What about selling melons? What about car dealers? What about winter rice?

Huang Minglan looked at her mother-in-law with a question mark on her face.

Then Mrs. Yi was wronged.

Ever since she came back from the county, Yi Daya has become the favorite in the village.

Whenever she goes out, she will be laughed at by the villagers.

She didn't want to hear the ridicule, so she basically didn't dare to go out.

Although she vaguely heard some rumors, it was the first time she heard about the fact that Yi Daya made eighty taels from selling melons.

Boss Yi and his wife do know.

But they thought it was Yi Mingxue's bragging. The watermelons in that area were very popular, but selling them at such a high price of eighty taels was simply unheard of.

Huang Minglan made such a big joke in public and couldn't keep it off her face for a moment.

But she quickly calmed down and assumed the attitude of a great shopkeeper.

"I admit that I underestimated her before. But it's only eighty taels, so it won't expand like this."

Indeed, her Huang family's dry goods business now has more than a dozen branches.

Eighty taels may be an astronomical figure to these poor country people.

To her, it was just a month's profit from a dozen shops.

"This kind of money earned by luck may only come once in a lifetime! There is nothing to be proud of."

There was a hint of superiority in her tone.

But she was just a merchant, and although she had some bad money, her status was no higher than those of them who were farming.

As a result, some villagers soon retorted.

"It's a joke. If you can grow melons once, you can grow them again. If you can grow melons, you can grow rice. This is obviously Ren Yi Daya's ability. Why is it just a matter of luck?"

"I see that you inherited your father's business and lost all your main rice and grain business. You just randomly picked up a dry goods business to make a living. That's the only way to try your luck." Someone who knew some of the Huang family's details revealed it in public.

"Hahaha, that's not right! She must have been given a good pregnancy. This is her best luck!"

"You, you..." Huang Minglan turned pale with anger.

Arguing with a country woman and being rude can last a long time.

Huang Minglan is no match for them at all.

Yi Mingxue sneered at the side and said, "Third Aunt, you are from a wealthy family, so you must not be as knowledgeable as the people in the village. Besides, in terms of seniority, there are elders like you and Third Uncle here!

Isn't that what you said? The elders lecture, and the younger generation will have to endure it."

"Okay, you Yi Mingxue..." Huang Minglan was so angry that her whole body was shaking, but she was blocked and couldn't say a word.

When Huang Dazhuang saw his mother being bullied, he jumped out on the spot and cursed angrily.

"Why are you talking about my mother like that? You have a stinking village full of chicken shit, and you are so poor that you can't even afford meat. I think you are just jealous!"

"Da Zhuang!" Yi Laosan quickly stopped his daughter from talking nonsense.

He hugged the people in the village and said, "Uncles and aunts, I apologize to you on behalf of my little daughter. But you have simply misunderstood my wife. She also only cares about the children of my second brother's family."

"Yes! Yes! The third brother and his family are also kind-hearted. After all, Da Ya is old and will have to get married sooner or later." Uncle Yi also came out to smooth things over.

But what she said was reasonable.

It was clearly the two of them who started this matter, and now it seems like the third bedroom is coming to meddle in other people's business.

Huang Minglan secretly thought that she might have been plotted.

But given the current situation, she had no time to deal with this cheating sister-in-law.

He could only look at Mr. Chen Xiang and try his best to save his face.

"My husband-in-law is right. I had good intentions. I just didn't expect that this girl would become so capable after not seeing her for several months. The amount of the bride price and dowry can be renegotiated, but the Liu family is indeed a rare good family.

."

She slowed down her tone and was even willing to lower her stance.

This surprised Yi Mingxue.

I have no friendship with this third aunt, as she said.

This marriage in the Liu family is indeed a good marriage for a country orphan girl without a father or mother.

It's just an unfortunate coincidence that the core of my body has been changed.

Regardless of whether Huang Minglan really had good intentions, but today he humiliated her like this.

She was reluctant to give up, fearing that there was some kind of deal between her and the Liu family.

Yi Mingxue narrowed her eyes slightly and remained silent.

Chen Xianglao looked at Huang Minglan and Yi Mingxue with some embarrassment.

Finally, I just put down my pick and started making peace with the mud.

"Oh, it's true that men should marry when they are young and women should marry when they are young. But what do you think of me as a rotten old man when it comes to your own family matters? Just sit down and discuss it as a family!"

The other village chiefs also agreed.

"That's right, that's right. We are all outsiders. This kind of thing has to be discussed at home." He said, not forgetting to compliment Yi Mingxue.

"But I think this girl Mingxue is an intelligent and capable person. No matter how nice she is, if she doesn't want to, you can't just make the decision on behalf of her parents, right?"

Some people even directly want to be a matchmaker, "Hey, you guys put it this way. I remembered that I have a nephew who just won the scholarship this year and has reached the age of getting married. Girl, why don't you also look at each other?"

"No! I asked you, Lao Li, what's the matter with you? I also have a boy at home who is working in the military camp and was promoted to corps commander last month!"

"Our village also has..."

The scene began to develop in an unexpected direction.

Everyone in the Huang family and the Yi family were dumbfounded.

Yi Mingxue: "..."

I really thank you all.

In fact, these village chiefs have their own little ideas.

Although the Liu family is good, Yi Mingxue is better.

They didn't know there was such a good girl waiting to be married before.

Now that I know it, I definitely want to go back to my village.

Don’t worry about whether it works or not, just go to the door and propose the marriage first!
