Chapter 113: Sounding Out
"Get married quickly? Marry whom?"
Old man Wang glared at Aunt Wang, and she shrank her neck, acting like a young wife.
"Of course she would marry Zhao Zhiqing. Who else could she marry?"
Aunt Wang said it as a matter of course.
"You said you want to marry her, so Zhao Zhiqing has to marry her. Does she owe you anything?
You should find some time to ask Zhao Zhiqing what he thinks. He may not necessarily like your daughter.
If he doesn't like you, just find a place far away to get married.
Look at how she is now, it's all because of you!"
Old Man Wang looked at his hopeless eldest daughter, shook his head helplessly, and then said:
"When you go to see Zhao Zhiqing, be more humble and don't ask for any betrothal gifts.
If they still don't agree immediately, you should prepare to marry your daughter to a man in the mountains.
I’m afraid that the ones near our village are not so good. I’m afraid that we can’t find any good families with this reputation…”
"Dad! Why?
If it weren’t for him, Zhao Weigong, would my reputation have become so bad now?
If I had known this would happen, I would have just drowned myself. I don't even need him to save me!"
Wang Jinhua, who was lying on the kang crying, suddenly got up and cried loudly.
Why can't she ask for a dowry if she wants to marry Zhao Weigong? If her sisters knew about this, she would be laughed at to death!
She didn't want any of that! She wanted a dowry, three turns and a ring, and a big brick house!
"You are just a lazy person who doesn't know how to be good. What does your bad reputation have to do with Zhao Zhiqing? Now everyone in the village knows about the little tricks of you and your mother.
Now everyone is waiting to see you make a fool of yourself. Do you really think I'm just a butt wipe for you and your daughter?
I have nothing else to do every day, so I just follow you around and clean up the mess?"
Old man Wang was so angry that he slammed the table and cursed, saying that this child was a waste.
"I don't care. I just want to be better than others in everything. I have to have what others have. I am not worse than others.
I'm prettier than those people, so why should I get married so easily?
Just send me away and make room for your precious son and daughter, right? "
After Wang Jinhua finished speaking, she stood up and ran out without looking back. Aunt Wang still felt sorry for her eldest daughter and wanted to follow her out to see what was going on.
He had only taken two steps when he was stopped by his old man.
"What do you want to do?"
"I just want to go see Jinhua. What if this kid suddenly has a brain attack and really jumps into the river?"
"Don't worry, she's scared to death and won't go. She's just squatting by the wall waiting for you to come find her.
Don't worry about her. Hurry up and do what I told you. Go ask Zhao Zhiqing this afternoon. If that doesn't work, find a good family far away to marry into.
I told you a long time ago, don't try to imitate the city people in raising children. They have such great families, and we are just ordinary farmers.
Now it's all right, you raised your child like this, with this kind of personality, I'm afraid she'll be tortured for years after she gets married."
As Old Man Wang said this, he picked up the chopsticks on the table and said, "Let's eat!"
Just as Old Man Wang said, Wang Jinhua was squatting at the foot of the wall and hadn't even left the yard.
She wanted to go out, but she was afraid of people gossiping about her, so she didn't dare go out...
He's also a bit of a bully.
......
In the afternoon, when going to work, Aunt Wang secretly called Zhao Weigong to the tree and whispered:
"Zhao Zhiqing, look at the rumors going around in the village lately; they're not very nice.
You and my Jinhua are both not young anymore, why don't you consider my Jinhua?"
This time, Aunt Wang finally listened to her old man and her attitude was quite good.
"Aunt Wang, do you want me to marry your Jinhua?
Hasn't she always liked Lin Zhiqing? Why did she suddenly ask me to marry her?
Besides, it’s not something I can decide on my own regarding such a big matter. I must tell my parents.
Rumors stop at the wise. After a while, these people in the village will stop targeting Comrade Wang Jinhua.
Besides, there is nothing wrong between the two of us. The only thing we have is that I rescued her.
Aunt Wang, marriage is now free, so you should find someone that Comrade Wang Jinhua likes. I'm not really suitable."
Zhao Weigong didn't want to delay Wang Jinhua, but when he thought about what happened that day, he felt that he had indeed gone too far.
This hand can save anyone, why does it have to...
"Hey, Zhao Zhiqing, don't listen to what they say. My Jinhua doesn't like Lin Zhiqing.
I was bewitched by Lin Zhiqing's face at the beginning. You said his family conditions were good, but he also had a sickly sister. How good could they be?
We as parents don't ask our daughters to marry into a wealthy family, we just want them to find a good family.
The most important thing is to find someone who loves and cares for her, and for the couple to live in harmony.
"If two people work together and live together, as long as they are diligent, life will not be bad. Zhao Zhiqing, don't you think this is true?"
Aunt Wang said these nice words as if they were free, for fear that Zhao Weigong would directly refuse the matter to her face.
At least you have to say something, please think about it!
"Aunt Wang is right, but marriage is a serious matter and shouldn't be treated lightly. I'll think about it and send a letter back to my parents to ask for their opinion.
I haven't finished the work in my hands yet, so I won't talk to you any more. I'll go back first."
"Okay, okay, Zhao Zhiqing, you have to think about it carefully.
When you write to your parents, please say more good things about my daughter Jinhua. She is beautiful and well-educated, and your parents will surely like her.
When Aunt Wang heard that this was a promising thing, she smiled so widely that her eyes narrowed.
That expression was as if Zhao Weigong would agree to let her marry Wang Jinhua tomorrow.
But Zhao Weigong didn't think so. He needed to think carefully about whether he really wanted to marry Wang Jinhua... As for writing a letter to his parents, he would have to wait a little longer.
Aunt Wang happily walked towards home, ready to tell Wang Jinhua the good news!
Neither of them noticed that Cai Yanhong was hiding behind the tree where they were talking...
It’s no wonder that Cai Yanhong has a gossipy nature. She even encountered such things. Isn’t that a coincidence?
Since Cai Yanhong knew about this during the day, Lin Yinyin would also know about it tonight.
When Lin Yinyin learned about this, she couldn't help but sigh that Zhao Weigong was really a good man. He was willing to marry someone like Wang Jinhua.
This is just asking for trouble!
