The history of struggle of peasant girls

Chapter 237 Meeting
Han Qianluo himself prefers honest people, so he asked one more question: "Grandma Xiong, please be more specific."

"When this Mrs. You Wu was in her hometown, she had an older brother and three older sisters. Her mother was not in good health, and she only had her older brother and one son. Therefore, she was very spoiled and was not allowed to do any work. Most of the work in the family was done It was done by Mrs. You Wu and her father, who are very capable." Xiong Matchmaker said.

"What happened next?" Han Qianluo asked.

Matchmaker Xiong suddenly sighed and said: "Her mother betrothed her to a middle-aged man who is lazy, poor in character, and old in order to raise money for her brother's dowry. Why is that man at home?" You don't do it either, all the work in the crop field is done by You Wuniang alone."

Hearing this, Han Qianluo couldn't help thinking, so it seems that this You Wuniang is indeed a very powerful woman. It is not an easy task for a woman to do all the work in the field, especially There are some jobs that require a lot of strength and good physical strength.

"What about the other one?" Han Qianluo asked, he still had to listen to the other person's situation before making a decision.

"The other situation is similar, but people are better-looking, and they are more eloquent and eloquent. Her former husband is also in business, so he is better at these things, and your elder brother is suitable." Xiong Matchmaker Said.

Han Qianluo did not speak after listening, but lowered her head and thought seriously. She personally prefers You Wuniang in front. As for the reason, there is actually no reason, but she thinks it is better to be an honest person: " Grandma Xiong, I think the former You Wuniang is more suitable, please go and ask her family's opinion."

"This is no problem, but..." Xiong Matchmaker suddenly stammered.

"Grandma Xiong, do you have any questions?" Han Qianluo asked puzzled.

Matchmaker Xiong then said: "It's like this, about your second sister, I haven't seen what your second sister looks like, and the old lady also wants to see how she looks, so I think I should find someone What chance is there to meet?"

Han Qianluo didn't think there was any problem with this. She thought it was a normal thing. For such an important matter as getting married, one must first see the talent, so she replied without thinking, "Then you can arrange a date." .”

Matchmaker Xiong thought for a while and said, "Let's do this, tomorrow, what do you think?" She felt a little embarrassed as she spoke, and felt that she was too eager, so she quickly added, "You also know that Fifth Young Master is very ill. It’s powerful, so the old lady hopes to be faster.”

"I understand, let's do it tomorrow, the second sister is not young, and I hope she gets married soon." Han Qianluo said with a smile.

"In this case, it's settled. Tomorrow, I'll think about meeting there tomorrow." Xiong Matchmaker began to think after she finished speaking, and then raised her head after a while and said, "Well, you guys come to me first tomorrow." home."

"it is good."

After returning home, Han Qianluo told his eldest brother and Han Shuier about the meeting. Naturally, his eldest brother would not have any objections, and Han Shuier was even more delighted, as if he could marry tomorrow.

After telling Han Shuier about this, there was another thing to say, but Han Qianluo didn't want to let Han Shuier know now, so he dragged his elder brother out and walked to the next yard before stopping.

"Xiao Luo, is there anything else?" Han Qingquan asked puzzled.

Han Qianluo hesitated for a moment, collected his thoughts, and then said: "Brother, I also asked the matchmaker to tell you about a marriage. I think a woman named You Wuniang is good, honest and capable, and I have already asked the matchmaker to tell you about a marriage. Go ask, brother, do you have any opinions?"

"It's fine as long as you think it's suitable. I don't have any opinions. I believe in Xiao Luo's vision." Han Qingquan said with a smile, patted her on the shoulder, and then left to work.

The next morning, Han Qianluo took her second sister, Han Shuier, to the city. Originally, she wanted to ask her elder brother to go with her, but the elder brother expressed his unwillingness to go there, so she and Han Shuier went together.The two first came to Matchmaker Xiong's house together, and then went to meet the old lady with Matchmaker Xiong.

Matchmaker Xiong led Han Qianluo and the two of them as they walked, chatting endlessly: "The old lady is very satisfied after hearing about your family's situation, so as long as Miss Shui'er doesn't have any troubles, this marriage is a sure thing. "

"Although the fifth young master is not in good health, he has a very good temper."

The matchmaker Xiong kept talking along the way, and Han Qianluo couldn't understand why she talked so much, so she just kept silent and listened quietly.

Fortunately, the journey was not too far away, and Matchmaker Xiong soon came to a place called Fengyuan Tea Shop, took them in, and immediately greeted them after entering, "It's Grandma Xiong, right?" , please go upstairs, the room is ready."

"You take us up there." Xiong Matchmaker said.

The waiter hurriedly took Han Qianluo and the three of them to the innermost room upstairs: "Grandma Xiong, this is here, you wait here for a while, the old lady will come soon."

"I see, I'm sorry to trouble you." Matchmaker Xiong walked in after finishing speaking, Han Qianluo quickly followed, found a stool and sat down, and Han Shui'er sat there very ladylike.

The three drank tea and waited for a while. About two quarters of an hour later, Han Qianluo finally heard the sound of walking outside the door, and there were more than one. When the footsteps came to the door, the door was closed. Pushed outside.

Han Qianluo turned his head and saw that there were four people who came, two elderly women, one of them was dressed very luxuriously, it was obvious that this was an old woman, and the other was a little worse, look I don't know what their identities are, but the other two are young girls, and they look like servant girls.

"You're here, old lady." Matchmaker Xiong stood up quickly and said.

Han Qianluo and Han Shui'er were also embarrassed to continue to sit there in a stable manner, and quickly stood up and said, "Madam, hello."

The old lady didn't speak, she sized up the two of them with her sharp eyes, and then frowned slightly, but she still didn't speak, but the other old woman said with a smile, "Sit down, sit down and talk. "Everyone sat down again.

At this time, the waiter came in again, brought in a plate of walnuts, a plate of snacks, and a plate of oranges, and then left.

After the waiter went out, the old woman finally spoke, looked at Han Shuier and said, "Are you Han Shuier?"

"In the case of Mrs. Hui, the daughter of the people is Han Shuier." Han Shuier replied softly, with a very respectful attitude.

It's just that Han Qianluo on the side was a little uncomfortable when he heard it. What does this Han Shui'er mean by being so humble, and she is not their servant, but although she felt a little uncomfortable, she still knew how to measure it and didn't show it.

The old woman nodded, and then stopped talking. She really put on a gesture. It was the other old woman who spoke. The other old woman looked at Han Qianluo and said, "Who is this?"

"My surname is Han." Han Qianluo blurted out this sentence, and realized something was wrong after saying it, so he quickly added, "My husband's surname is Liu, and we are sisters."

At this time, the matchmaker next to her quickly interrupted and said, "Their parents died a long time ago, and they were raised by their elder brother. The three brothers and sisters are self-sufficient, and they don't rely on anyone."

"Very good." The old lady said lightly.

No one spoke for a while, and the atmosphere was a bit cold, but the old lady was not affected at all, and continued to drink tea with a calm expression, but the other woman and the bear matchmaker couldn't stand it, and then the two began to chatter chat.

Probably because the atmosphere was too cold, or maybe the old lady looked down on Han Qianluo and the others. Anyway, after a while, the old lady stood up and wanted to leave. Didn't hear what they said, but Han Qianluo knew what they said with his toes, it was nothing more than satisfied or dissatisfied with Han Shui'er.

Han Qianluo also stood up, opened the door and walked out, only to find that the old man had left, and there was only Matchmaker Xiong left in the corridor, so it was convenient to ask, so he hurried over and asked in a low voice: "Grandma Xiong, how are you?" ?”

"The old lady expressed that she is very satisfied. You can give me your second sister's geng post later. By the way, I have also asked that You Wuniang's place. The family is very willing. Why don't you find a time to meet her?" side?"

"Don't worry about this matter, let's settle the second sister's matter first." Han Qianluo said without thinking, her first task now is to marry Han Shui'er.

"Since everything is settled, let's go back too." Matchmaker Xiong said with a smile.

Han Qianluo went out with Matchmaker Xiong, and when they reached the gate of the market, they went back separately.On the way home, Han Shui'er was always smiling, looking very happy.

Han Qianluo knew why she was happy, so he ignored her, but after a while she couldn't hold back anymore, and said with a happy face, "Xiao Luo, do you think that old lady is really majestic?"

"Is there?" Han Qianluo asked back. She didn't think it was prestige, but it was just domineering in front of people with no background like them. If she met someone with a higher status than her, she could still maintain this attitude , that's amazing.

But obviously Han Shuier didn't understand what she was thinking, so she still said happily: "Of course it's amazing, you can't do it yet." There was a faint disdain behind, but she didn't seem to realize it. The expression on his face was still smiling.

"As long as you like it." Han Qianluo said very coldly.
