Chapter 15 The wild wolf crossing the clear road
As soon as Mrs. Sun finished speaking, her mother-in-law's voice suddenly sounded behind her, startling her.
But she quickly reacted and said with a smile on her face: "Oh, mother, I just moved to the county a few years ago. Of course you haven't heard of it! The rich gentleman's surname is Huang, and he is Shoude. We met by chance when we were studying in the academy. They fell in love with Shoude's knowledge and wanted to get married. Didn't I think of a girl at home who was waiting to be married?"
"With such a good thing, why don't you think about that girl Jinfeng?" The old woman from the Li family stared at Sun with her triangular eyes.
"Mother..." Mrs. Sun murmured twice, her voice sounding like a mosquito, "Isn't this inappropriate for Jinfeng's age..."
"What? Why doesn't it fit in? This girl Jinfeng is also old enough to get married!"
"Oh, mother, please don't worry too much." Sun's voice became lower and lower, and her face became unnatural. "What I want is a girl under ten years old..."
Hearing this, Mrs. Li's face darkened. It was just as she thought. What the Huang family wanted was not an ordinary daughter-in-law!
Although she has been busy these past few days, she has been thinking about what Xiufen said that night. She originally wanted to take the initiative to ask the eldest daughter-in-law the next day, but thinking that the eldest daughter-in-law must be hiding something from her, she didn't ask first and waited for her to take the initiative. explain.
This is what I have been waiting for!
Mrs. Sun grumbled for a long time, then simply broke the jar and said: "Mother, let me tell you the truth. The young master of the Huang family has a hidden illness and only marries girls under ten years old. We only need to marry Erya." When we get to the Huang family, they are willing to give us twenty taels of silver as a betrothal gift!"
"Twenty taels of silver!!"
The old woman was shocked by this number. She ignored the fact that the young master of the Huang family had a hidden illness and confirmed again: "Are they really willing to give a gift of twenty taels of silver?!"
"Of course it's true!"
When Mrs. Sun saw that her mother-in-law did not ask about the hidden illness of the young master of the Huang family, she immediately said with a smile on her face: "Mom, our old Li family only has Erya as a suitable candidate. You must quickly find a way to get Erya back! Otherwise, when the time comes, They couldn’t wait any longer, so they married someone else’s daughter!”
"Okay, I'll discuss it with your father at noon!" The old woman was also afraid that the twenty taels of silver she had received would be lost, so she quickly agreed.
Hearing this, the smile on Sun's face deepened.
As long as the mother-in-law agrees, then the matter is almost done!
So, at noon, when the old man of the Li family came back with his sons for dinner, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law sang and talked about the Huang family's marriage, praising the Huang family to the highest degree.
But they all tacitly concealed the fact that the young master of the Huang family had a hidden illness.
After hearing this, the old man of the Li family frowned and remained silent.
Zhu on the side couldn't help but said: "Dad, why are you hesitating? That's a full twenty taels of silver! With this money, won't the eldest brother have enough money to go to the state to get meritorious status!"
"But..." the old man sighed in embarrassment, "Erya has already broken up with us. If we let her get married like this, I'm afraid..."
"Even if the marriage is broken, she is still your granddaughter!" Mrs. Sun said quickly, "We have found such a good marriage for her, and she has to thank our Li family!"
"That's right! Even if we break up, I'm still her grandma! The bones are broken but the tendons are still connected. Our Li family has raised her for so many years, and I don't believe she dares to deny me as her grandma!" said the old woman.
The old man took two puffs of cigarette and was silent for a long time. Finally, he nodded: "Okay, you can take some time to ask later and see if Mrs. Jiang is willing to let Erya marry her."
Hearing this, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law looked at each other with satisfaction, and both saw excitement in each other's eyes.
"I'm sure she will! The Huang family is a well-known wealthy gentry in the county. Her daughter will be blessed if she marries one!"
……
at the same time.
Jiang Xiaoxiao and her mother went to the mountains again.
This time, the mother and daughter could almost be said to have returned home with a full load.
Jiang Xiaoxiao was carrying a small backpack filled with fruits, vegetables, and various mushrooms. And Jiang Wei carried two wild wolves on his shoulders.
The wild wolf had a sharpened bamboo stuck in its belly and was already lifeless.
This was a wound that her mother had deliberately faked in order to make outsiders think it was a wolf that had been hunted in a trap.
This wild wolf is used to cross the open road.
In the future, families will only buy more and more things. If there is no obvious source of money, the villagers will inevitably be suspicious of where the money for their purchases comes from.
Jiang Wei didn't dare to take the wild beast down the mountain because it was too big. After all, she was still just a village woman who "had no power to restrain a chicken."
And this wild wolf was just right, not too big, weighing about sixty kilograms each, far less astonishing than the previous three or four hundred kilogram stag.
As for the fruits and vegetables in the basket on Jiang Xiaoxiao's back, Jiang Wei deliberately placed them among the trees after killing the wolf for Jiang Xiaoxiao to discover.
At that time, Jiang Xiaoxiao was silently complaining that her mother's little tricks could only deceive a five-year-old child, while at the same time showing a look of surprise and joy on her face.
The mother and daughter's way down the mountain deliberately detoured around the road next to the farmland in the village.
At this moment, everyone was working in the fields. When they saw the wild wolf on Jiang Wei's shoulders, their eyes widened in disbelief and they all came forward:
"Oh my god! Is this a wild wolf in the mountains!"
"Ms. Jiang, did you hunt this alone?!"
Jiang Wei nodded, pointed to the bamboo thorns on the abdomen of the wild wolf and said: "I made a trap in the mountains a few days ago. I originally wanted to go up the mountain to pick some wild vegetables today, but I saw these two wolves fell into the trap I dug. No more energy."
After listening to Jiang Wei's explanation and looking at the bamboo thorns stuck in the wolf's belly, the villagers didn't have any doubts and couldn't help but feel envious:
"My dear, you are so lucky! This wild wolf is not something you can hunt casually!"
"That's right. There used to be hunters in the village. When they went hunting in the mountains, their legs were bitten off by wild wolves. They managed to save their lives. Later, they no longer dared to go up the mountains and left our Yuhe Village to work hard outside!"
Jiang Xiaoxiao, who was listening next to her, couldn't help but think: Could it be that the house they lived in belonged to the Orion?
"I'm not telling you, Mrs. Jiang, you and your daughter have been living more and more prosperously since you separated from the Li family. Look at Erya's little face, it looks much fleshier than before!"
Hearing this, Jiang Xiaoxiao put on a serious expression, but said in a soft voice: "Aunt, my name is no longer Erya. My surname is my mother's, and my name is Jiang Xiaoxiao!"
The villagers were amused by her serious look, and joked with laughter: "Hey, good, Xiaoxiao, Xiaoxiao, that's a really nice name!"
The mother and daughter returned home under the envious and slightly jealous eyes of the villagers.
Jiang Xiaoxiao had just returned to the house and put down her backpack. When she turned around, she saw that her mother had quickly wrapped one of the wolves in oilcloth.
"Xiaoxiao, you stay at home, while it's still fresh, I'll take this wolf to the county and sell it."
"Well, okay!" Jiang Xiaoxiao looked up at the sky. It was just past noon, and it was still early. With her mother's pace, she should be back before dusk.
