Chapter 74

Anyway, Mrs. Xiang didn't know that they had money in their hands, so she thought they were walking to Xiang's house!

Sanlian knew what her sister was going to do, she sighed and said,
"You still don't give up!"

While Si Lian urged the groom to hurry up, she turned around and asked her,
"Third sister, you really don't want to see what your future husband-in-law is like?"

San Lian was silent, and nodded lightly for a while, Si Lian nodded heavily upon seeing this, and said,
"That's right, you should go and see, even if he is a fool, you should know what kind of fool he is, right?"

Fortunately, the Wang family was just south of the city. The carriage left the outer city and arrived at the Wang family village after two miles. The two sisters jumped out of the carriage, and Silian told the driver again
"You wait for me here, and give you two more copper coins when you go back..."

Now that she has silver taels in her hand, she speaks a lot harder!
It's time now, and the coachman can't find any customers for the return trip, but if he waits a little longer, he can earn the fare for the return trip. Naturally, he is willing, so he immediately replied,
"Those two young ladies need to hurry up, otherwise they won't be able to make it back before the gate of the closed city!"

Silian nodded, and ran away like flying with Sanlian.

Wang's old house is very hard to find. According to beggar Zhang's words, as long as you enter the village, you will be the third house. Turn around under the old tree.

At this time, the night was approaching dusk, and the adults in every household called the children to go home. The farmer’s family worked at sunrise and rested at sunset. They closed the house and the family went to bed early after having dinner early. Therefore, there was no one at the entrance of the village at this time, only the young man was wandering around under the tree.

The two sisters went over and listened to his meowing. When the young man saw them coming, he asked,

"Have you seen the cat?"

The two sisters looked up at the tree, but there was no kitten on the tree.

"No!"

San Lian replied, the man immediately looked like he was mourning his concubine, and started to cry as soon as his mouth shrunk.
"My kitten... kitten... meow meow..."

He cried like a cat meowing at the same time, Sanlian and Silian cried when they saw him as a man, everyone said crying, they didn't understand for a while, they stared at her blankly, Silian was the first to come back to it,

"This stupid look, can't it be the young man of the Wang family?"

San Lian reacted a bit slower than her younger sister, and at this moment she understood a little bit, looked him up and down, saw that his clothes were a bit dirty, but he was white and fat, a full head taller than her,

"You...are you the young man of the Wang family?"

Sanlian asked him, that Xiaolang should not, just crying for his cat, the two sisters held hands and just looked at him like this, Silian sighed secretly, feeling sad for her third sister,

"If it's really him, this...isn't this too stupid?"

San Lian was smiling, went up to hold the fool's hand,

"Are you the young man of the Wang family? Is your family the third one in front? May I take you home?"

That idiot just cried, but he obediently let her lead him, and followed Sanlian to the house obediently, while Silian followed behind to watch, but his nose felt a little sore, and he gritted his teeth secretly,
"Father and mother, what kind of relationship is this?"

San Lian turned her head to talk to the fool with a smile,
"Cats always go up to the house and climb trees, maybe it has already gone home by itself, you should go home first and have a look!"

The fool suddenly stopped crying, laughed again, clapped his hands and said,

"My mother said that too..."

San Lian smiled and nodded, took his hand to the courtyard gate of the Wang family, raised her hand and knocked on the door, the door was ajar, the courtyard door creaked open, someone was talking in the inner room,

"Who is it?"

Sanlian didn't answer, but the fool answered loudly,

"The third brother is me!"

The people inside heard this, sighed and said,
"Brother Xiang, you want to be called Sanbo... You said you, why did I blink and you ran outside..."

While speaking, the person left the room, and was taken aback when he saw San Lian and Si Lian,
"Who are the two ladies looking for?"

Seeing the man following closely behind San Lian, she hurriedly asked,
"Oh...could it be that Brother Xiang was running around outside and bumped into the two little ladies, don't take it for granted, he...he didn't do it on purpose, he was just... just a little stupid...but he was very pure in heart !"

Sanlian smiled and waved at the old man,
"Don't worry, old man, he didn't run into us, but we saw him wandering under the tree at the entrance of the village, so we took him home!"

The old man sighed in relief,

"This kid is a bit stupid, but he has a good temper. It's just that the children in the village sometimes bully him, and I won't let him go out..."

Sanlian looked at the fool with pity,
"He...how...how did he become like this?"

The old man replied,

"This child was also very smart when he was young. He fell down from the mountain and hit his head when he was playing outside..."

San Lian and Si Lian looked at each other when they heard the words, and they both breathed a sigh of relief secretly, Si Lian said in her heart,
"That is, if you are smart when you are young, but become stupid when you grow up, then you will probably not be a fool when you have a child!"

Sanlian nodded, and pulled the Wang family man over to the old man,

"You go home, we should go too!"

The old man asked,

"The two young ladies are not like the people here. I don't know whether they are looking for someone or doing business here?"

San Lian took another look at the smirking Wang family Xiaolang, nodded and said,
"We're here to look for someone, and we've already seen him, so we're going back now!"

This room gave the old man a blessing, and then pulled Si Lian and turned away. When the two went out, they heard the old man in the yard saying to the young man of the Wang family,

"Brother Xiang, don't go...don't chase after me, don't scare the little ladies!"

The two sisters arrived at the entrance of the village, got into the waiting carriage, the coachman turned his horse and headed back to the city, the two sisters looked at each other for a long time in the carriage, Sanlian said softly for a while,
"Fourth sister, I've met her before. I'm satisfied with this marriage!"

Silian was silent for a while,

"Third sister is really willing to marry a fool?"

Sanlian sighed and said,
"Compared to my eldest brother-in-law's promiscuity, and my second brother-in-law's beating up after drinking, I'd rather marry a fool..."

After a pause, he said,
"If you don't believe me, go ask the eldest sister and the second sister, and see how they will respond..."

Si Lian stared at San Lian and found that her expression did not seem to be fake, her heart felt bitter,
"Could it be that our daughter is only worthy of such a marriage?"

They don't want to be rich or expensive, but they don't want to have a simple and honest husband, a pair of lively and healthy children, and a family to live a simple life. Is this an ordinary request?

Seeing her sister's sad appearance, Sanlian came over and took her hand and smiled,
"Silly sister, I know you love me, but this marriage...I really think it's very good...it's really good, I'm very satisfied!"

Seeing her son-in-law's smile, Silian felt that bitterness spread from her heart to her mouth, even the tip of her tongue became bitter, so she forced a smile at Sanlian,

"As long as the third sister thinks it's good, then it will be done!"

Sanlian nodded heavily at her,

"Don't worry, fourth sister, I will live a good life in the future!"

Although that idiot is a bit stupid, he doesn't beat anyone or scold anyone, and his family is considered well-to-do. If he can give birth to a son and a half in the future, he will have someone to rely on for the rest of his life!

As for... what is said in the play, the case is equal, Liang Mengxiang respects, Hongbin Xiangzhuang and other couples are harmonious, then... don't think about it, after all... I don't have this fate, this is very good. All right!
When Sanlian and Silian arrived at Xiang's house in the south of the city, it was already dark, and Silian jumped out of the car on the way to buy two big meatloaf.

"Third sister, eat quickly!"

Silian handed one to Sanlian, and Sanlian took the steaming, meaty-smelling meatloaf, a little bit reluctant,
"Fourth sister, there will be a wedding banquet tomorrow, and my grandfather's house must have a lot of food tonight, no matter how we go there, we can fill our stomachs, so why do you need to spend so much money!"

Silian laughed and said,
"Third sister, take a look later, it's strange that we can eat enough!"

It was already dark at this time of year for them, and it was already past dinner time, but now there are a lot of things in the kitchen, and besides grandma's temper, if they could have a mouthful of hot soup, it would be a blessing!

She kept urging Sanlian to eat the meatloaf, Sanlian ate half of it, but was still reluctant, so she wrapped the remaining half in oiled paper and put it in her arms.
"Save it for tomorrow morning!"

When the two arrived at the Xiang family, the old lady of the Xiang family saw the two of them, and sure enough, they had a scolding meal at the beginning.
"Where did the two cheap hooves go wandering, why did they arrive at this time?"

The two only said that they came here by walking, and it was about this time when they came here, and they said angrily to the old lady,

"Can't you come here sooner?"

"The business at home still needs to be taken care of..."

Staring at the old lady with a pair of toad eyes exactly like her daughter,

"Just that small noodle stall, how many copper coins can you earn in a day, and what if you lose a day?"

The old lady wanted to scold her two granddaughters, but she interrupted her daughter-in-law,

"Mother, there is a shortage of people in the back kitchen, please don't say a few words, let them go to the back to help!"

Only then did the old lady reluctantly shut up,

"Hurry up and help!"

The two hurriedly went to the back kitchen, where chicken, duck and fish had already been prepared, and a group of women from the Xiang family were washing, chopping, frying, steaming and cooking, the two of them glanced around, they were all women from the Xiang family San Lian went to ask Xiang Zhi from the third family of the Xiang family,

"Why didn't you hire a cook?"

Ordinarily, the wedding banquet requires a cook outside, and the family can cook home-cooked dishes, but the noodles for the banquet are still not as good as the chef's craftsmanship, so Xiang Zhi stuck out his tongue at her,

"Grandmother said, it's all from her own family, there's no need to hire a cook outside, just cook according to home cooking!"

Si Lian was not surprised by her grandmother's stinginess, she had already gone to help pluck the slaughtered chicken, and the two sisters were as Si Lian expected, busy until late at night, finally rested, and asked the old lady After eating a mouthful of hot soup, it was just like that, grinning at the old lady in distress, and said to everyone,
"Today, you are blessed by the rich man, and you can eat a mouthful of hot chicken soup. If you were in the past, you would only be able to eat it during the Chinese New Year!"
