Reborn peasant girl: I became rich overnight by traveling to sea

In the Guo family's yard.

Chang Pingning saw that Meng Xia suddenly smiled with a strange smile when she asked about the scene when Meng Xia and Miss Liu met.

"Well, yes. Liu Qingwan and I met in front of an inn in a nearby town." Meng Xia's expression was very calm.

Chang Pingning always felt that Meng Xia was deliberately avoiding something behind her calmness, but Chang Pingning just nodded, accepting Meng Xia's response.

Chang Pingning knew that based on her friendship with Meng Xia, if she continued to ask questions, she might even arouse Meng Xia's resentment.

After a while, Chang Pingning heard Meng Xia talking to her.

"Ms. Chang, if anyone wants to marry me in the future, just tell them that my husband is dead and I am the widow of a husband." Meng Xia pointed at herself and smiled sarcastically.

The attitude is quite firm.

Chang Pingning was stunned. She didn't understand. According to Meng Xia's statement, she probably wouldn't have any good marriage arrangements for her in the future. It would most likely be a widower whose wife had died.

"Aren't you doing this to your own detriment?" Chang Pingning told Meng Xia his worries, but in his heart he was really thinking about Meng Xia's future happiness.

She didn't tell the aunt about Meng Xia's situation on the beach at first, just because she wanted to come back to talk to Meng Xia, and maybe introduce a good marriage to Meng Xia.

Meng Xia smiled and shook his head: "It doesn't matter, Mrs. Chang, just do as I tell you." The refusal was obvious.

Chang Pingning saw Meng Xia's firm attitude, so he didn't say any more.

Meng Xia saw a depressed look on Chang Pingning's face, smiled at Chang Pingning, and patted her shoulder: "Okay, Madam Chang, thank you for your reminder. I will pay attention to those aunts in the village who want to be matchmakers for me. .

"Your mother-in-law hasn't come back yet, so I'll go back first. I'll come over later and ask them if it's convenient for them to process the caught seafood at your house for outsiders." Meng Xia said with a smile, still remembering her coming Why are you looking for Chang Pingning?

After Chang Pingning heard this, he sent Meng Xia out of his yard and waved to Meng Xia.

Watching Meng Xia leave, Chang Pingning suddenly found it hard to imagine that such an eccentric person as Meng Xia would become the daughter-in-law of "someone" in the village.

Chang Pingning shook his head, closed the courtyard door, turned around and packed up the firewood in the courtyard and the clothes that the whole family had changed out of yesterday.

After the clothes were washed, they were hung in the Guo family's yard.The wind blew the burlap clothes, and Chang Pingning gently beat his back under the eaves.

The weather had cooled down a bit. Chang Pingning looked at the clouds floating in the sky and returned to his and Guo Bomo's house, planning to make clothes for Guo Bomo so that he could wear new clothes during the Chinese New Year.

Chang Pingning drew a few strokes on the rough yellow paper, but remembered in her mind that the first year she married into the Dong family in her previous life, during the Chinese New Year, Dong's mother was punished because she did not make Dong Xiuyuan new clothes. Chuyi scolded her severely.

From then on, every year before the Chinese New Year, she remembered to make clothes for Dong Xiuyuan.It's not that I feel bad that Dong Xiuyuan doesn't have new clothes to wear, but I don't want to be scolded like that by Dong's mother again.

Thinking of the Dong family, Chang Pingning inevitably thought of Meng Xia who appeared in the Dong family in her previous life. At that time, "Meng Xia" was determined to be "Mrs. Dong".

Chang Pingning had never heard of the fact that "Miss Meng" who was brought back to the house by "Mr. Dong" was actually a widow.

The two generations of Meng Xia had very different attitudes when it came to proposing marriage.Chang Pingning didn't know that Meng Xia's refusal to be proposed by the villagers was so that she could marry a high-ranking official in the future.

Thinking of this, Chang Pingning couldn't help but become a little rough when drawing clothes on the rough yellow paper in front of him.In the secret place in my heart, there was an imperceptible disdain.

Isn't she just a widow? Why should I compete with her for the position of the county magistrate's wife?I don’t know if Dong Xiuyuan and Meng Xia in the previous life, after getting what they wanted, knew that Meng Xia was not a yellow flower girl...

Chang Pingning had mixed thoughts. On the one hand, she felt that she should not speculate on Meng Xia with such malicious intentions. After all, she could make so much money in this life mostly because of the methods Meng Xia told her in this life.

But at the same time, Chang Pingning couldn't help but feel a little proud...

The wind blew, and voices rang out at the door of the courtyard. Only then did Chang Pingning realize that the clothes on the paper in front of him had been drawn in a mess and were difficult to identify.

Chang Pingning came to his senses and walked to the door of the yard, only to find that the aunt next door was back.Chang Pingning looked at his figure in the sun in the yard, and suddenly felt that he was no different from the aunt he met in the morning who wanted to kiss Meng Xia.

Chang Pingning shook his head, returned to his room, pulled out a new piece of paper, and drew new clothes on it.Chang Pingning thought that if she made money this year, not only would Guo Bomo have a new coat, but she would also make new clothes for everyone in the Guo family and her natal family.

And she was able to make money thanks to Meng Xia.

Chang Pingning lowered his head and tried to get rid of the random thoughts in his heart that he could not express.

Not long after, Chang Pingning heard the voices of her mother-in-law and Guo Ling'an talking from the yard.

Chang Pingning walked out of the house, poured a bowl of water and put it on the small table in the yard, and took the wooden bucket from her mother-in-law that she had brought to town to deliver seafood.

By the way, he told his mother-in-law about the guests who showed up at the beach in the morning, and told her mother-in-law that Meng Xia intended to take over the job and hand it over directly to their family.

Ye Xiuying sat in the yard drinking water while listening to Chang Pingning talk about the work that the Liu family might give them.In Ye Xiuying's view, Meng Xia and Butler Liu were both members of the Liu family.

"The work is quite easy, but our family is short of manpower now." Ye Xiuying answered after listening and handed the water bowl to Guo Lingan who was standing aside.

Guo Ling'an was still a child who didn't know how to be thirsty. He had obviously been running around the town with his mother for a day. Now he looked at the tea handed over by his mother and said that he was not thirsty, turning his head to the side.It wasn't until my mother's tone showed impatience that she reluctantly took it and took a sip.

Chang Pingning watched the interaction between her younger sister and her mother-in-law, and secretly thought that she could add some red plums to the little coat she made for Guo Ling'an, just like her younger sister's rosy face.Chang Pingning looked at her little sister's awkward look and smiled at her.

"Are you going to reject Meng Xia?" Chang Pingning asked proactively when his mother-in-law did not continue.

Ye Xiuying did not immediately give Chang Pingning an affirmative answer: "The money is quite a lot, but our family is now, your father and your second brother are at the port, Bomer went to sea again, you have a job on the beach and at the port, and the rest Get these three little ones——"

When Ye Xiuying said this, Guo Lingan seemed to know that her mother was talking about her. She raised her head and smiled naively at her mother and sister-in-law in front of her.

Chang Pingning was amused by the appearance of the younger sister, while Ye Xiuying shook her head helplessly.

"Of the remaining three, two are in school and one is like this." Ye Xiuying said, not looking like she wanted to agree.

However, Ye Xiuying changed the topic and asked: "Does this money belong to our family or the village?"
