Rebirth of farming for a living

Chapter 296 Cheng’s efforts

It seemed that Mrs. Zhang was really anxious.

There are not only the Li family in this courtyard, but also Jiang Zhe, Wang Daniu and Cheng.

The reason why they didn't leave was not because they didn't care, but because Li Qiuyan had already told him that there were some things he couldn't say, so Cheng needed to take action.

Looking at Mrs. Zhang who was a little embarrassed, Li Qiuyan rolled his eyes: "Auntie, I know that it is a big deal for Brother Li Mu to marry his sister-in-law. I want to help. I will definitely try my best. But in our farm family, we have never heard of anyone We need 100 taels of silver to get married."

Zhang might as well have Li Qiuyan pour out everything at once.

Her face stiffened, and she subconsciously looked left and right, but it was dark and she couldn't see other people's expressions.

There are still people to ask for here, so we can't blame Li Qiuyan.

Although she was a little embarrassed, Mrs. Zhang still replied shamelessly: "Li Mu is talking about a little girl from the town, and her requirements are a bit high."

After a pause, he continued: "Don't worry, I will definitely pay back the money."

Li Qiuyan remained silent. In the darkness, he only heard Mrs. Cheng say: "Her aunt, it's true that we have married girls from the town. We have never seen one who spent 100 taels of silver. This girl's family is quite rich. ?”

"My family has some money, so they just fell in love with me, Li Mu. But my family feels sorry for my daughter and thinks we don't have a house in the town, so they don't want my children to live in the village. Although I don't have a daughter, think about it. Don’t all adults just want to make their children live a good life?”

Li Xiangdong didn't want to hear this. Zhang actually wanted to find someone to talk to.

Anyway, Mrs. Cheng also knew about it, so Mrs. Zhang took advantage of the situation and sweetened the matter, not forgetting to go back and make amends.

"That's true, but buying a house is a big deal. Borrowing so much money to buy a house will make life difficult for the family. Maybe a new wife will come, and they will have to tighten their belts to pay off the debt. If they know it, how can they willing?"

Mrs. Cheng is not meddling in other people's business. Mrs. Zhang is making things difficult for her niece. If she doesn't say this, who will?I am not afraid of Mr. Zhang holding a grudge.

"If they knew that they borrowed so much money for Li Mu's marriage, I don't think they would be happy." Li Xiangnan also joined the battle.

"Look at what you're talking about, third brother. Who doesn't owe debts when they marry a daughter-in-law? You can pay it back slowly after you get married. Third brother, don't worry, I won't borrow this money in vain."

Mrs. Zhang first replied to Li Xiangnan. Li Xiangnan had nothing to say and could only remain silent.

"When Li Mu gets married, the family will live together, and the bills will be paid very quickly. The Liu family is just a daughter, and the dowry money promised is more than a house, so they will tighten their belts. I won’t let my daughter suffer.”

Mrs. Zhang originally didn't want to talk about these details, for fear that others would think she was greedy for money, but listening to Mrs. Cheng and Li Xiangnan's tone, she still couldn't help but reveal a hint of contentment.

It also reassured Li Qiuyan that he could afford it.

The matchmaker said that Liu Jiao's dowry was quite large, which made Zhang's wishful thinking come true.

Mrs. Zhang was secretly proud, so it didn't matter if Mrs. Cheng's daughter married into the town. Her son was marrying a girl from the town.

Still a daughter with a generous dowry.

It's baffling, who wants to compare with her?

"As long as you have a plan. But, if you buy it for the eldest brother, what will you do if the second eldest brother wants it too?" Mrs. Cheng said again: "If a bowl of water is not balanced, there will be conflicts."

Mrs. Zhang was stunned and said nothing.

"Look at the aunt you are talking about, my brother Li Mu and my brother Li Lin are very good friends. There will be no such thing as what you said." Li Qiuyan smoothed things over.

"Why not? The eldest brother wants 100 taels to get married. I'm afraid the second brother can't get married without 100 taels, and there's no separation of the family." Mrs. Cheng said with some disapproval.

The problem that Mrs. Cheng mentioned also exists, but although Ms. Zhang was stunned for a moment, she didn't take it all to heart: "Li Lin is still young."

When Mrs. Cheng saw that Mrs. Zhang was still unmoved, she changed her explanation: "Which family does this little girl that I told Li Mu belong to?"

"My surname is Liu." Mrs. Zhang seemed to be afraid that others would rob her, so she didn't want to say more, so she just perfunctoryly said it.

"I haven't heard of any wealthy family named Liu in the town. The Liu family is willing to give so much money to their daughter. What kind of business is this family?" Ms. Cheng continued to inquire.

This kind of thing must not be for farming.

"The town is very big, unlike our village, and there are people who are not familiar with the town." Ms. Zhang also wanted to know, but she had never been to Liu's house.

"That's true. You didn't go and inquire?" Cheng asked.

Not to mention this era, even in modern times, blind dates are not just a matchmaker's two-parter talking about whatever they say. Instead, they will visit acquaintances and inquire about each other's family background before proceeding to the next step.

Mrs. Zhang was stunned, she was knocked unconscious by the pie, and she really didn't have time to inquire.

Although Mrs. Cheng said that she didn't like to hear anything she said, this sentence spoke to her heart.

Just from what Matchmaker Sun said, she wanted to inquire about it. If there wasn't that much dowry, Mrs. Zhang wouldn't comply.
