The son-in-law of a prosperous family

Tian Wanting was silent for a moment, then said, "I can farm, or if that doesn't work out, I can inherit my mother's legacy and become a matchmaker!"

Mrs. Xie sneered. She didn't know whether her daughter was stupid or foolish, but she was definitely missing a thread in her brain.

"Do we have any fields or land in the city? What do you grow?"

"And being a matchmaker, I would like to ask how many people do you know in the capital? They might starve to death before you can successfully help them find a partner!"

Well, there is some truth in what you said.

But Tian Wanting was still unwilling: "Am I going to be trapped in this small village for the rest of my life?"

Mrs. Xie glanced at her and expressed her understanding of the girl's thoughts. After all, who doesn't have ambitions when they are young?

She had it when she was young anyway.

Faced with this situation, there is no need to do anything at all, because reality will teach them to bow their heads.

"Alright, alright, don't think too much about it. Just wait for me to look for you carefully. I will definitely find you a perfect husband."

"I want someone with a good personality and a sense of responsibility who won't be seduced by the vixens out there!"

Just like Zhao Yunchuan, Zhao Yunchuan's friendship with Fang Huai is truly touching, and this alone is enough to make others look up to him.

"Don't worry, mother knows!"

In fact, Tian Wanting had a bold idea in her mind, but she didn't say it. Never mind. Anyway, the Fang couple will stay in the village for more than ten days after returning. There is no rush. It won't be too late to talk about it later.

…………

The next day after I came back, Tian Xiangwen came to my door.

Before seeing him, I heard his voice first. From a distance, I could hear Tian Xiangwen yelling at the top of his voice: "Brother Chuan! Brother Chuan! Brother Chuan!"

Zhao Yunchuan quickly responded to him from inside the house: "Stop shouting, you are calling for the soul, come in quickly!"

To be precise, the two men had not seen each other for just over ten days. Since opening the tavern, Tian Xiangwen would go to the provincial capital to deliver food to him every ten to twenty days.

But most of the time, they come and go in a hurry.

Arrive in the evening, have a meal, take a shower and stay another night, and leave early the next morning.

Therefore, although the two met each other, they rarely had fun together like before.

"Brother Chuan, let's go to the river to catch fish and river worms in the afternoon!"

Tian Xiangwen licked the corner of his mouth: "I am a little jealous of your cooking skills!"

It’s been such a long time since I last ate crayfish. To be honest, Zhao Yunchuan was a little craving for it.

"Brother Huai, do you want to eat?"

Fang Huai nodded: "I want to eat!"

Crayfish is so delicious, fragrant, spicy and numb. I want to swallow my whole tongue when I think about it. I didn’t think much of it when it wasn’t mentioned, but now that it’s mentioned, I feel even more greedy!

"Since you want to eat, let's eat!"

The three of them agreed to go to the river in the evening. In addition to picking some crayfish, Zhao Yunchuan also planned to pick some crabs. Crabs at this time of year are the fattest. They can be steamed and then dipped in ginger and vinegar sauce. The original flavor has a unique flavor.

Soon, it was evening.

The couple each carried a basket and went to the river. When they got there, Tian Xiangwen had not arrived yet, and there was only a woman washing clothes by the river.

Uh... a little familiar!

Sun Xiuxiu?

Sun Xiuxiu also heard some noise behind her and turned around to see Zhao Yunchuan and Fang Huai.

My eyes couldn't help but light up!

Of course, the person who made her eyes light up was Fang Huai.

Zhao Yunchuan immediately became unhappy. What is this woman doing? !

Why are you looking at Huai Ge'er like that?

Do you think he is dead?

He calmly took a step forward and stood in front of Fang Huai, blocking the unpleasant sight, then looked at Sun Xiuxiu provocatively.

Sun Xiuxiu: ...

This person is so childish!

Sun Xiuxiu was not angry either. She dropped the mallet in her hand and walked towards Fang Huai. Then she curled her lips and said four words: "Long time no see!"

It was clearly just a common greeting, but Zhao Yunchuan felt uncomfortable listening to it.

"Are you two familiar with each other? It's been a long time since we last met? Obviously, we haven't seen each other much before."

Fang Huai secretly tugged at Zhao Yunchuan's sleeve and winked at him, telling him to shut up.

We are all from the same village, why do you have to say such harsh words?

Sun Xiuxiu was not to be outdone. She was still smiling, but the words she said were not so nice.

"Who said we haven't met before? We've met many times."

They had met each other in many places, such as in the fields, by the wells, by the rivers, and on the hillsides.

Zhao Yunchuan: ...

Have you met many times?!

He looked at Fang Huai in disbelief, his eyes full of accusation, as if he wanted the other party to give him an explanation.

Fang Huai explained in a low voice: "We are from the same village. Isn't it normal to meet each other on the road? Don't be jealous!"

One of them is a young man and the other is a woman, it is simply impossible!

But Zhao Yunchuan didn't think so. He always felt that something might happen between them.

Sun Xiuxiu hadn't seen Fang Huai for a long time, and she was genuinely happy to see him the next time.

"Are you doing well in the city?"

Zhao Yunchuan: ...

For some reason, the meeting between these two people gave him the feeling of a long-lost reunion of former lovers, which was very unpleasant.

"I'm doing fine, how are you?"

"I'm fine too!"

Although Sun Xiuxiu is a widow now, her overall mental outlook is very good. Even the most ordinary coarse linen clothes look vibrant and energetic on her.

It seemed as if Chen Xu’s death did not make her sad.

Unexpectedly, Fang Huai was right. Chen Xu's death not only did not make Sun Xiuxiu sad, but made her extremely happy.

Although the title of widow sounds bad, widows are free!

She doesn't have to face disgusting men and vicious mother-in-law every day. She is so happy now.

"How long do you plan to stay when you come back this time?"

Fang Huai replied: "About ten days!"

The two of them chatted as if no one was around. Although they didn't talk about anything inappropriate, Zhao Yunchuan was still very unhappy.

What are you doing?

Just pretend he doesn't exist!

Zhao Yunchuan reached out to pull Fang Huai's hand, and tickled his palm with malicious intent.

"Brother Huai, stop chatting. We still have to pick up crayfish. If we continue chatting, we won't be able to eat."

Fang Huai knew very well what her husband was thinking. Didn't he just not want him to talk to Sun Xiuxiu?
