Girlfriend's Fortune

Chapter 130 Chapter 120 Nine: Fooled
Zhang Laodou answered with a smile, "My boy is often away from home. Everyone knows him. He is not sure yet. Don't worry. I want to ask you to help my girl. Pear Blossom is a matchmaker."

"Our Lihua family is hardworking and capable, able to endure hardships. She is a good hand at work inside and outside the house, and her body is also strong. She has never been sick since she was a child, and her appearance is not bad. Whoever asks for it will be fine. Not bad."

Old Deng's heart sank completely at this moment, unexpectedly, the old fellow fell in love with Lihua.

No need to guess, she already knew what he had to do.

He praised the pear blossoms to the sky, didn't he just want to exchange the pear blossoms for more dowry gifts?
20 taels of silver, I hope he can figure it out.

Countless thoughts flashed through her mind, thinking about how she could fool her about today's matter.

After a while, she must have made up her mind.

Immediately he answered with an unhappy face, "What is hardworking and capable? If I hadn't scolded her, she would be a lazy girl who didn't want to do anything. Aren't you afraid that I will beat her? It's just such a girl, thanks to you still want to give her A good match?"

As he spoke, he looked at Matchmaker Xiao and said, "This guy from my family came up with a temporary thought, but I don't know, I'll trouble you to come in today, drink this sugar water and go, my girl doesn't bother you to say hello, I will Give her a picture yourself."

Matchmaker Xiao's face froze when she heard this, and she said that the old lady of the Zhang family didn't like the second room.

She is also thick-skinned, knowing that it doesn't make sense to follow the old lady, so she just went to Zhang Laodou, "Is it for the girl Lihua to say goodbye? Oh, I have heard of the girl Lihua, she is said to be hardworking and capable, then That's right! I heard that she is still working in the tea shed set up by the Song family? She is also a capable girl! Say hello to her, no problem, the old lady will definitely find a good family for her!"

"I just don't know what you want from the man here, brother?"

Before Zhang Laodou could speak, Mrs. Deng immediately said in displeasure, "I've already told you, this girl doesn't need to bother you to say goodbye, why don't you understand? Go, go, don't bother you!"

Zhang Laodou hurriedly winked at Lao Deng, meaning to settle this matter first, and I will talk to you later.

He also said in his mouth: "Ms. Chrysanthemum, my son always wants to talk about kissing when he is old. If there is a matchmaker who won't invite you, why bother to find it by yourself?"

Matchmaker Xiao assisted, "That's right! I have nothing to say about my matchmaking ability, my old lady. Don't worry, old sister-in-law, entrust this matter to me. I guarantee you will be satisfied!"

Old Deng snorted, with a displeased expression on his face, but he still said, "I'm really satisfied?"

Matchmaker Xiao nodded hastily, "Tell me what you are satisfied with, and I guarantee that you will be satisfied. Whatever conditions the old sister-in-law has, just tell me!"

Old Deng said: "The conditions are not great, just a few points, the family population is simpler, you don't have to live a better life, just work in the fields. The man must be honest and have a good temper, or else he will marry me and come back to give me face." You can't see it!"

When Matchmaker Xiao heard this, she looked down on the old lady a little bit. Isn't this just like the cress?
This is to train the granddaughter to be afraid of the granddaughter's resentment, so she dare not give her granddaughter toughness, for fear that she will come back to take revenge!

What a nice old lady.

Before she answered, Zhang Laodou hurriedly pulled the old Mrs. Deng, and smiled at her: "No, that's not the case, Xiao Matchmaker, you have been listening to my old lady speak out. Let it go soft!"

"My second child is just such a daughter, and they are not at home, so we have entrusted our two elders to take care of us. Naturally, we have to look for a better marriage. The man's family can be well-off, and it is best if he has land and real estate. In this way When Lihua marries, she will be able to enjoy happiness without having to work in the fields."

"And the betrothal gift should be given generously, so that we can see that the other party really values ​​our pear blossom, and we can rest assured that we will marry Lihua there. Naturally, we want her to live a good life. This betrothal gift will be given to her as a dowry." back."

"Matchmaker Xiao, just follow what I told you to look for."

When Matchmaker Xiao heard this, she nodded secretly. Look, isn't that how normal people say kiss to their children?Who doesn't look forward to marrying a good family?
Whoever's daughter wants to talk about marriage, she also looks for it from a good family!

It's not surprising that the betrothal gift is higher, the Zhang family's life is considered easy, and there is still a shop in the town, so they don't have to rely on the granddaughter's betrothal gift!
It is definitely true to say that if you want it, you will marry back as a dowry.

Sure enough, it's better to be the step-grandfather, but this grandma is weird.

Old Deng was held back by Zhang Laodou, still muttering angrily, "As long as she is like that, what rich family can I find her? Which rich family can match her?"

Matchmaker Xiao listened, thinking that this old lady had such a face, she still had to work hard, so she found Lihua a family that would be good enough to go up to ten miles and eight villages, and see how the old lady slapped her in the face Woolen cloth!
Immediately smiled and said: "Don't worry, brother! I have written down the conditions you said, old lady, and the custody will be found according to what you said. It is not bad at all, so you can rest assured!"

Zhang Laodou was afraid that the old woman would say something against him, so he quickly answered, "Okay, then I will trouble Matchmaker Xiao with your troubles!"

"It's easy to talk about, I will definitely pay attention to it, and when there is a clue, I will definitely come to your door and write back to you immediately."

Matchmaker Xiao took over a business and left happily.

In the room, Old Deng was unhappy and said: "I've agreed on Lihua's marriage, so why did you change your mind and insist on giving her a good marriage? Isn't this slapping me in the face!"

Zhang Laodou knew that the old woman didn't like this granddaughter, so he quickly coaxed, "I know, I know, it's still 20 taels short of silver, let's tell Lihua that we're close, and we'll get the dowry, and we can buy some at any time." Dongxi was married to someone, and the other party could think highly of Lihua? Wouldn’t she have an easy life at that time? Isn’t it the same as you want to marry her to a poor family to live a miserable life!”

Old Deng's heart felt chills after hearing this, and he just hummed, pretending to be unhappy, but only said that he was unhappy and said nothing more.

Zhang Laodou was relieved when he saw that she had stopped speaking against her, and waited expectantly for Xiao Matchmaker's reply.

He doesn't want too much dowry, as far as Lihua is concerned, I'm afraid they won't give too much, ten taels of silver is not bad.

At that time, there will be only ten taels short. Maybe he can borrow some from the village chief, and he can also borrow some from Wujin.

Maybe that's about it.

A heavy burden was suddenly relieved, and Zhang Laodou was so happy that he couldn't help but drink two more sips by himself at lunch.

He was a little drunk, and it was hot in the afternoon, so he fell asleep in bed and fell unconscious.

Old Deng stood in front of the bed, looked at Zhang Laodou who probably wouldn't wake up in thunder, and slowly stretched out his hands, touching his neck.
