Chapter 165 Showdown
In the room here, Mo Qianrui laughed and fell to the ground, but grandma outside was very angry.

"My son has been very smart since he was a child, and he is good at learning. When the next imperial examination, he will definitely be named on the gold list. If he marries him then, he will be the wife of an official."

"This..." Probably Grandma's imposing manner was too strong, and the matchmaker was a little speechless for a while, and hesitated for a long time before saying, "Actually, you don't need to be named on the gold list, as long as you have a reputation as a scholar, you can marry me." To the daughter of a scholar. If there is someone who is famous for raising people, I can assure you that I will tell you the granddaughter of the head of the Shen family."

"Not yet, but there will be in the future!"

Grandma was still holding on, but Mo Qianrui was dying of laughter.

This is just to fool the farmer who doesn't understand anything, right?If it was half a year ago, maybe Dad would really believe it, but now that he has been in Mingyue Town for so long, Dad's vision has broadened a lot, and such words will definitely not confuse him.Let alone a matchmaker who walks the streets all year round.

Sure enough, after Grandma's words fell, the matchmaker began to shrink back.

"Then what do you mean, what kind of girl do you want to find? The merchants don't want it. The daughter of a scholar must see if she has fame or not, but if she is a poor scholar, she probably doesn't care. Otherwise, I will give Find a father who can read a few words? Why don't you tell me in detail, what are your more detailed requirements?"

"Of course there are requirements. My son is a scholar. As you said, the ones from the merchants definitely don't want it. It smells like copper. It's best to be the granddaughter of the head of the Shen family you mentioned just now, or the dean of the academy." Granddaughter is also fine. As far as age is concerned, anyone around twelve or thirteen years old is fine. If she is too big, she will be left behind. Who knows why she will be left behind. People should be more beautiful, so the children born in this way will be more beautiful. I took my son out. By the way, have you seen my eldest daughter-in-law? She is more beautiful than her."

"Hehe..." The matchmaker probably had a stiff smile on her face, and when she spoke again, her tone sounded like a broken jar, "Is there anything else? For example, the girl's female celebrity, cooking skills, and dowry and so on of."

"Of course! For female celebrities, you can't be worse than my eldest daughter-in-law. As for cooking skills, it's fine to be better than my eldest granddaughter. It's best to be able to take over from her class. You know, my eldest granddaughter will die after the new year. I’m 11 years old, maybe I’m going to get married in two years. At that time, it’s better that someone can continue to run our shop. The dowry doesn’t need to be too much, just a few tens of pennies will do. Or take some Gold hairpins and silver hairpins are also available, regardless of style."

"I...you mean, ask the daughter of a scholar to marry into your house to open a shop? Or a snack shop where you cook for yourself?"

"Of course, otherwise why would you marry her? Also, she must be able to bear children. My elder daughter-in-law is fine, but it is unlucky to have two daughters in a row. My eldest granddaughter is fine, she looks She can do it well, and she has good cooking skills. Anyway, she earns her own food and drink now, and can save some money for the family. The little granddaughter can only eat, and nothing else. She doesn’t look good. I don't know what to do from now on!"

"Hehe, that child is still young..."

"What's wrong with being small? Seeing old at the age of three! Now that she is too young to work, do you think she will when she grows up? Don't be ridiculous, she's a loser anyway. I was thinking, how about I grow up If the granddaughter stays for two more years, at least she has to help earn back the little granddaughter's dowry money. Otherwise, it will be difficult to marry her off!"

"Then what you said is right, I remembered, it seems that the head of the private school at the east end of the town has a daughter. His surname is not Shen, he is an outsider. How about I help you find out? It is said that his daughter is excellent."

"Successful, but you have to be quicker. My son is nineteen, and I can't afford it."

"Okay, I'll go right away."

The first matchmaker fled and never came back.Of course, they also confiscated the money, so there is no way to blame them.

However, this is just the beginning and it won't be over in a short time.

In just a few days from the New Year's Eve to the New Year's Eve, Grandma met seventeen matchmakers.At first, she only met one person a day, but later she simply made appointments with several at one go, and gathered in her small courtyard to have heart-to-heart talks.Anyway, these days, matchmakers don't charge money if they don't get things done. At most, they just invite you to drink some tea and eat two biscuits.

Mo Qianrui considers herself a kind and gentle girl, especially because she thinks Grandma's behavior is too embarrassing, even though she never planned to let the matchmaker help her find her, what about the second girl?
After figuring it out, except for the first unlucky guy, whenever a matchmaker comes, she will give her a jar of claypot rice first.Although it wasn't worth much, at least it didn't make people miss it.

Fortunately, those matchmakers all claimed to be incompetent, and did not blame the Mo family at all.There was even a matchmaker who sneaked up to Mo Qianrui early the next morning while Grandma was away and told Mo Qianrui that if Mo Qianrui needed to talk about marriage, it would be no problem to find her.Just because of her good cooking skills, she will definitely help her find a good marriage.

Regarding this, Mo Qianrui could only hehe. Fortunately, she was still young, and the matchmaker thought she was shy, so she didn't mention it.

This year's New Year's Eve is very miserable.

Although Mo Qianrui tried his best to cook a table of good dishes, except for the most heartless Erya, no one was in the mood to taste the food.

The reason is still the little uncle's marriage.

"Hey, the matchmaker in Mingyue Town is really useless! I think we have to go to other places to find out. Big girl, don't you have a good relationship with the Li family? How is their family?"

"What? Are you referring to the girls from the Li family? But Meiniang and Huiniang seem to be the only ones of the right age."

The descendants of the Li family are very prosperous, but they are used to having sons, although they also have daughters, the number is not so good.Now the only girls in the Li family who are ready to marry are Meiniang and Huiniang.

"Who said they? Meiniang has eye problems and head injuries. You think I don't know? And that Hui Niang has just been divorced. Who are you fooling? I mean, they have a lot of family members and they know each other well." There are many relatives and friends, is there any suitable one?"

"I don't know, grandma, you can't let me see the marriage for my little uncle, can you? It's too irritating."

In fact, Mo Qianrui didn't care about the so-called seniority issue. She had no relatives in her previous life, and she didn't have any special respect for her elders.Besides, the little uncle is still young, considering her psychological age, he is simply a brat.

But she still didn't want to help her, just because she didn't have confidence.

Want to please a picky granny?Dream faster!

Even if she was lucky enough to meet such a good girl, would she have the heart to cheat her?You can't be so wicked!
In good conscience, the little uncle doesn't have too many shortcomings.He is of good height, looks good, can read and write, and has a good temperament in general. He belongs to the gentler kind of person, at least not the kind of rough guy who beats his wife.

But this is just passable.

You said it looks good, can this be eaten as a meal?
Being able to read and hyphenate characters is useless as a scholar unless you can get a good reputation.

As for the gentle temperament... Tunton, right?From Mo Qianrui's point of view, she would rather find a masculine gentleman than such a badass.

God is pitiful, this is not the age of relying on appearance for food.

"I didn't ask you to help me see, just to let you think about it. When they chatted with you, didn't they talk about such a thing?"

Seeing that Grandma was not going to let her go, Mo Qianrui simply gave up.After careful recollection, she suddenly had an idea.Maybe, today is a good opportunity!
"Grandma, the second aunt of the Li family told me about one thing. The uncle of the Li family plans to go to Yu County to do business in the next year, and other relatives of the Li family will also go there with him. No, Li My second aunt specifically asked me for advice, and asked me to teach her how to make spicy soup and claypot rice."

Mo Qianrui was planning to slowly change the topic to the matter of going to Yu County, but Grandma suddenly dropped her chopsticks.

"You little girl, you have no brains! When someone says something nice to you, you can teach them everything? Do you know that there is a saying that teaches apprentices to starve to death of masters? You, you..."

You're out of your mind!No, there is a hole in your mind, a bottomless pit!

Slandering fiercely in her heart, Mo Qianrui resolutely decided not to give up, and said straight away: "Grandma, can you listen to me? When we went to Yu County last time, you saw it too, Yu There are many docks in the county and a lot of labor. Such a place is the best place to do food business. I was thinking about asking the second aunt of the Li family to explore the way first. If it is done well, we can go too. And Yu County The place is also big, and in a county town, there are many private schools in the academy, and even more scholars. What kind of family do you want to find for your little uncle?"

"Even so, you don't have to teach others all your skills, do you? You're stupid!"

You are stupid!You pure 24K fool!
At any rate, Mo Qianrui had memories from her previous life, so she knew that there was no need to be afraid of crowds when buying and selling food.Of course, if the overall number of people is small, it is an exception.But obviously, a county seat!At least there are tens of thousands of people, so what’s the problem with opening two mala tang shops?
Besides, she doesn't have to make Malatang, there are so many recipe ideas in her mind waiting for her to realize one by one, even if the business of Malatang is left to the Li family, so what?

Taking a few deep breaths, Mo Qianrui said silently that she was not as knowledgeable as a fool, and what needs to be kept in mind is that she can't beat Grandma!

"Grandmother, Uncle Li has been doing business in Yu County and Wanhua County for decades. Don't know too many people, and don't have too many connections. You saw it last time, he can talk to the county magistrate, If we really go to Yu County, don’t we need someone to take care of it? Besides, your granddaughter and I are so capable, even if the two companies do the same business, believe it or not, I can immediately grab all their business!”

Mo Qianrui has seen it through. To Grandma, you must not soften up. You must push her up, growl louder than her, and show more momentum than her.

Of course, the premise is that you have to be reasonable and have a good sense of proportion. If you directly provoke like little aunt...

Life is beautiful, and she still wants to live well.
