Flowers are expensive

Chapter 55 How to lie 2
Matchmaker Wu laughed in her heart, who doesn't know that your Cao family is headed by women!Then Cao An is a soft persimmon, it's okay to pretend to be a grandson, but he's still a bit short of a bear!At this moment, she didn't care about arguing with Cao Shi, she was too busy thinking about how to make things better.

When Haitang came in again, he glanced at Cao An with displeasure, and asked Cao, "Sister, what are you going to do? The more people outside say it, the worse it will sound!"

"Second brother, you are the only son in our family, so it's up to you to settle this matter. You have the nerve to ask sister what to do? Mother and sister have spent so much effort, isn't it just for your own good? If you look like a man , I should rush out and throw those Xie family buns at the entrance of the village to fill the cesspit, what are you talking about here?" Mei Xiang's tone was full of disdain and aloofness, her eyelids rolled up.

Hearing this, Hai Tang felt angry, and couldn't help but sneer and replied to Mei Xiang: "That's right, I am the only son of this family, and the only son who was sold to the village!"

"You..." Mei Xiang was about to retort, but Cao immediately shouted: "Shut up! The fire outside has not been extinguished, and you should light a fire on the beam first, what kind of thing is it? Mei Xiang, you also calm down Some! If I hadn't stopped you just now, would you have to show off your scolding skills? Let your husband's family see it, and think that our Cao family can't raise good girls! Haitang also stayed and went If you can’t make up your mind, stick your mouth with paste!” After she finished scolding, she turned to Wu Matchmaker and asked, “Old man, have you made up your mind? We’re still waiting outside! Are you still planning to eat dinner at my house? "

Matchmaker Wu glanced at Mrs. Cao disdainfully, and said, "Okay, I know what to say, you don't need to yell at me here. In terms of seniority, I'm still a generation older than you! Count me today Bad luck, to be in trouble like this! If I had known earlier, I shouldn’t have messed with Xie’s family. They have five sons anyway! Having more sons means a better life, and having more daughters means a lower life!”

"What do you mean by that?" Mei Xiang bounced off the stool, slapped the table and scolded Matchmaker Wu.

Matchmaker Wu snorted and walked out.As soon as she showed up, the outside suddenly fell silent.Lihua pursed her lips and smiled, thinking that this is really still holding the pipa and half covering her face, she just came out after a thousand calls!

Aunt Xie glanced at Matchmaker Wu, shook her shoulders, and asked coldly, "Matchmaker Wu, are you willing to come out? I thought you would have to tease Cao's yard before you dare to come out!"

"Aunt Xie!" Matchmaker Wu bowed her waist at sixty degrees, walked quickly to Aunt Xie like a flattering actor, and said flatteringly, "You really misunderstood! It's not that I refused to come out! It's the Cao family who refused to let me out." I'm coming out!" Aunt Xie rolled her eyelids and asked, "The Cao family is your uncle? Are you tied with an iron chain to prevent you from coming out? You're coaxing ghosts!"

Matchmaker Wu kept screaming for grievances, patted her chubby chest and said, "We have been friends for so many years, what should I do to coax you? When I heard your voice just now, I wanted to run out to give you an answer." Talk. But the third aunt Gao said that you are too deceitful, and you have to live alone with you, and you have to scold you until you are ashamed to see someone in the village. You will not let me come out! What kind of person is I, Wu Xian? Don’t mention you, everyone here knows that no one has offended anyone in this village, don’t you think so?”

Aunt Xie twisted her face, grunted, and didn't answer.Wu Matchmaker was so embarrassed that she glanced at Lihua standing next to her, rolled her eyes, and immediately moved to Lihua, smiling and said: "My daughter-in-law, you have a relationship and persuade your mother-in-law. I am really sorry about today's matter." You are wronged! I, a matchmaker, relies on people to tie the marriage line for a living, and if she tells me to break up the marriage, she is telling me to cut my fortune and life! I can’t blame me for Moxiang’s marriage!"

Lihua twitched her brows and asked with a smile: "So, is it still my fault?"

Matchmaker Wu hurriedly waved her hands and said, "No wonder you! No wonder you! When the man's family heard the news that Xie's family was going to recognize you, they told me in advance that once they recognized you, they would immediately come to the door and push the marriage. Hey, I'm really in a dilemma! The Xie family has been friends with me for many years, and Mo Xiang is my half-niece, how can I let her suffer this kind of idleness? But if I don't say it, the husband's family will find someone else sooner or later Said, I don’t know how many ugly things I will have to say at that time, and Mo Xiang will be so sad to hear it! Anyway, this marriage will not work out, let me tell you, in the end, the words should be softer, and you can live with it in your heart, can’t you? ?”

Lihua couldn't help admiring, this matchmaker really had a good mouth, she made herself look pitiful with a few words.Anyway, there is no one on the man's side, which means that there is no evidence to prove it!However, she is not easy to be fooled, she asked without changing her smile: "Then do you think I am a sister?"

"Bah!" Matchmaker Wu spat behind her back angrily, "That's all the Cao family's nonsense! I was listening to Cao Meizhi say it in the room just now. I just said it casually, who knew it would cause trouble?" What's so troublesome?"

These words caused quite a commotion among the onlookers, and Matchmaker Wu's statement at this time was quite convincing.Pear Blossom was secretly amused, but she didn't expect to have unexpected gains!She asked again: "Because of such a small rumor about me, that man is going to push for a kiss with Mo Xiang, and he doesn't care about Mo Xiang's face, what kind of man is he?"

"What kind of man is he? He doesn't even count as a thing!" Wu Matchmaker said in a tone that planned to cheat the man to death, "At first glance, I thought it was your family's Moxiang! With Moxiang's Appearance and temperament, don’t worry about not being able to find better ones! But that family pestered me and said that I met Mo Xiang once, it was a long-standing relationship in a previous life, so I have the cheek to mention it to your family! Now he It’s fine if you push it, I’ll assign Moxiang to find a better one later!”

"What if I can't find it?" Lihua asked.

"Whether...or I can't find it..." Wu Matchmaker's expression became tangled for a moment, wasn't she just politely saying bold words to support the scene?I didn't expect Qin Lihua to ask this question!She had no choice but to bite the bullet, patted the thick chest again and said: "If you can't find it——You Xie family, come and tear down my signboard!"

Lihua smiled, calmly stopped talking, and lowered her head to look at Aunt Xie, as if returning the right to speak to Aunt Xie.She knew very well that it was her mother-in-law who decided not to withdraw from this "battle" at this time.In front of the villagers, she showed too much limelight, and this mother-in-law would probably be even more dissatisfied with her.

Not only Zhen and Zhuang, but even Aunt Xie was surprised.She fully thought that Qin Lihua would take the opportunity to show off in front of everyone, but unexpectedly, Qin Lihua's eyes turned and fell on herself, looking calm and respectful.She couldn't help but her scalp tingling, this girl is not bad at pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger!

Seeing that Lihua had stopped talking, Matchmaker Wu looked at Aunt Xie anxiously again.At this time, the Zhuang family with round eyes said: "Mother, look, it's not easy for Wu Matchmaker. She said everything she should say, and she might be scolded by the man later! If you don't mix in that line of work, you don't know how hard it is." She is also in trouble! Besides, our Xie family has always been generous to others, and we rarely make friends with others. Today, Lihua is a new family member, so it’s not good to make this festive day unlucky. Don’t you think so?”

Aunt Xie liked Zhuang's. Before Lihua came in, although Jin Ling'er was her favorite among the three daughters-in-law, she still liked Zhuang's more than Zhen's.The Zhuang family can observe words and expressions, and speak tactfully.From time to time, he paved the steps for her, which saved her a lot of worry.Naturally, she understood what she said just now, so she nodded and said, "That's right, what's the fight with Wu Matchmaker? It's also the fault of the Cao family!"

Matchmaker Wu finally breathed a sigh of relief, as if she had just untied her neck from the hanging beam.She nodded repeatedly and said, "Mrs. Xie, you have such a bearing. Oh, hey, there is nowhere to find another one! If you were born a man, can this small place like Zique Village trap you Qianlong?"

The daughters-in-law of the Xie family covered their mouths and laughed.Aunt Xie also laughed, got up and said to Matchmaker Wu: "Look at your compliments, those who don't know think you took a few catties of corn from me! Well, today's matter is not aimed at you, where is it?" Can I get angry with you? I'm not that unreasonable person. I've been together for so many years, I've seen who I have fought with? Rabbits bite people when they are anxious, don't you think?"

"That is that is!"

"Our family's Moxiang's marriage will be troublesome and troublesome to you later!" Wu Matchmaker naturally did not dare to refuse, and she boasted: "Don't talk about trouble, just give birth! I want to find Moxiang for you. Well, I'll just throw this matchmaker fan into the stove and burn it!"

"With your words, I can feel at ease. I will come to my house another day, and I will still be old sisters. It won't hurt my friendship."

"Definitely!" Matchmaker Wu nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

"Okay, you can go back too. We've been tossing around for so long, we should go back and have a rest! However, I have to put the ugliness first. If any family in the village has such an unclean mouth and slanders our family's Lihua as a sister, I will It’s really going to be a mess!” After saying this, Aunt Xie held her head high, with a smile on her lips, and led the daughters-in-law home all the way proudly.

The crowd dispersed immediately, but the voices of discussion continued.Wu Matchmaker didn't dare to stay longer, she ran faster than a fox, lowered her head and disappeared into the crowd.

The outside of Cao's courtyard suddenly became quiet, Haitang came out to take a look, then turned back to the hall and said, "It's all gone, I'm fine, I'll go back to the field first."

"Haitang, wait!" Mrs. Cao stopped Haitang and said, "The Xie family recognized Qin Lihua today, what are you going to do?" Haitang said with an indifferent smile, "What else can I do? I can listen to you. You don’t intend to recognize Hong Ling, I just don’t bring her back, so that when you see her, you don’t want to swallow her like a cat seeing a mouse.”

"How did you talk?" Gao frowned and scolded, "Is there anyone who flatters your mother like that? How dare you call me a cat? Damn boy, you really forgot your mother when you have a wife!"

"Okay, mother, now is not the time to talk about cats and mice," Mrs. Cao persuaded Mrs. Gao, and then asked Haitang, "Tell me, do you really plan to spend the rest of your life with that Hong Ling?"

"Yeah." Haitang replied lightly.

Gao rolled her eyes angrily, while Mei Xiang sneered and said, "Second brother, you would be so rare about a sister! Have you never seen a woman before, or what? What kind of tricks did Hongling use to charm you into a woman?" That's it?"

"You don't have to worry about it anyway, just take care of yourself!" Haitang replied bluntly.

"That's fine," Cao said to Haitang after glaring at Mei Xiang, "You want to treat her wholeheartedly, so bring her back and recognize her!"

As soon as these words came out, Cao An's wine glass knocked on the table beside him.He rolled his eyelids, which were red from the wine, and muttered, "No way!"

Cao Shi ignored Cao An's words, and only said to Haitang: "You go first, this matter is settled like this. Just bring Hongling back from the Spring Festival tomorrow." Although Haitang was a little surprised, he always believed in this sister , and didn't want to continue arguing with his mother and sister, so he turned his head and left.After he left, Gao asked in a very puzzled manner: "Meizhi, are you scared by the Xie family? How can you let that girl come back and recognize her relatives?"

Mrs. Cao sighed and said: "Mother, do you think I am willing? But you have to think about it for me! I have taken care of my family these years, right? Can't my family help me? Now Ma Liu is doing it for that. The matter of the three sisters is making me angry with me, and they show my face at every turn. If I don't get Hong Ling to come back to confess her relatives, and take advantage of his heart, can you let go of the anger you scolded him last time? "
