Reborn Ugly Girl Farming to Support the Family
Chapter 44 A Matchmaker Arrives
After chatting with these students for a few minutes, Mr. Fang had a rough idea of what kind of personalities these children had.
He is still very satisfied with these students.
"The class will officially start tomorrow, one and a half hours in the morning and one and a half hours in the afternoon. Okay, let's stop here for today."
"It's Master."
Everyone bowed respectfully to the Master and then left the room.
Seeing them come out, Zheng Xiaoman walked towards them.
"Brother, let's go to town and buy some paper and pens."
Zheng Qingming nodded, "Okay, let's go back and tell mom first."
Lixia immediately shouted, "Brother, I want to go to town too. I want to buy paper and pen, too."
Zheng Qingming rubbed his head and said, "Okay, let's go to town together today."
After returning home, the three of them told Zhou Chunfeng that they were going to the town. Zhou Chunfeng went into the house and took out two hundred coins and gave them to her son.
Zheng Qingming took the money and said, "Mom, I can't use this money."
"Take them all. Don't buy cheap paper and pens, or they won't last long. Use the money to buy paper and pens, and on your way back, buy two packs of snacks. You'll need them for your apprenticeship tomorrow."
"Okay mom, I got it."
The three of them quickly arrived in the town and first went to a shop selling pens and ink to buy two rolls of paper, two brushes and two inkstones.
Just this little thing cost me one hundred and fifty coins.
After that, the three of them went to buy two bags of snacks, and they only had ten cents left in their hands.
Zheng Xiaoman sighed in his heart, this money is really hard to stop spending.
She still had a few coins in her pocket, the few coins her mother had left over from the last time she came to town.
She took out five cents to buy a plate of pig offal, and used the remaining three cents to bargain with the candied haws seller and bought two strings of candied haws.
The reason why she bought the candied haws was that she saw Lixia’s eyes never leave the candied haws after she saw them.
In the end, I softened my heart and spent money to buy him two skewers.
She remembered that there were hawthorn trees in the mountains behind them, but there was no sugar at home.
If she had sugar, she could make the candied haws herself, so why would she need to spend money to buy them?
The hawthorns should be ripe now. I'll go to the mountains tomorrow if I have nothing to do and pick some to make candied hawthorns to eat at the end of the year.
On the way back, Lixia was holding two candied haws in her hands, with the smile on her face the whole time. She kept looking at the candied haws in her hands, as if the candied haws would disappear if she didn't look at them.
When he almost tripped again, Zheng Xiaoman said helplessly: "Watch the road carefully, the candied haws will not be lost. But if you fall, the candied haws will roll in the mud and it will not taste good."
When Lixia heard this, she quickly held the candied haws tighter and said, "I understand, sister. I will walk carefully."
From then on, he really stopped looking around on the road, stared at the ground, and walked very carefully all the way.
It was just past noon when the three of them got home. Lixia took a string of candied haws and ran to find her sister to eat.
The other four people in the family each ate one hawthorn from the remaining bunch, and the remaining two were left for the two younger ones.
Zheng Xiaoman doesn't like sour things very much, she prefers sweeter food.
Zhou Chunfeng put the two bags of snacks she had bought away separately, and then took out five catties of white flour and five catties of cornmeal from the household grain supply, and divided the white flour and cornmeal into two portions.
Finally, after thinking about it, she took out two salted fishes and dried loaches made by her daughter and put them in so that the gift of apprenticeship would not look too shabby.
Next month you won’t need to take so much, just some food and vegetables.
Zheng Qingming went to the back mountain and picked up two baskets of firewood. He moved the firewood to the backyard. From now on, he could only pick up firewood after school.
After eating the candied haws, Lixia and Chunya went back to the house to take a nap.
Zheng Dashan was sitting in the house peeling acorns. This job was now almost entirely his.
Zheng Xiaoman went to the backyard to feed the pigs and chickens. Just as she was carrying the basin back to the front yard, she saw a woman dressed up gorgeously lying outside her fence, looking into the yard.
The woman was wearing a pink jacket and had her hair in a bun with a red silk flower on the right side of her bun.
A man in his forties dresses like a girl in her twenties.
Zheng Xiaoman had never seen this woman before, so she asked, "Auntie, who are you looking for?"
The woman looked towards her when she heard the voice, then looked her up and down.
The look in his eyes was like someone picking goods, which made Zheng Xiaoman very unhappy.
She raised her voice again, "Auntie, who are you looking for?"
The woman came back to her senses and put on a smile, "Is this Zheng Dashan's home?"
"Yes, what's the matter, aunt?"
"Oh, that's right. Is your mother at home? I need to talk to her about something."
"Then please wait a moment, auntie."
Zheng Xiaoman didn't like her, so he went into the house to find Zhou Chunfeng without even opening the door for her.
"Mom, there's an aunt I don't know outside. She said she wants to see you."
Zhou Chunfeng put down what she was holding and said, "Mom, go out and take a look."
She walked out of the house and saw the woman standing at the door.
Zheng Xiaoman had never seen this woman, but she knew her.
This is Matchmaker Li from the next village. She has seen her several times in the village before.
Not knowing what the other party was here for today, Zhou Chunfeng smiled and greeted him, "This is Aunt Li, right?"
"Hey, it's me." Matchmaker Li also had a smile on her face, and she didn't show any dissatisfaction with Zheng Xiaoman for not letting her into the yard.
Zhou Chunfeng opened the courtyard door and invited her in to sit down. The two of them sat down in the courtyard. Zhou Chunfeng called to the house, "Xiaoman, go and bring two bowls of water."
"Okay, Mom." Zheng Xiaoman responded from inside the house and went to the kitchen to pour out two bowls of warm water.
"Mom, let me have some water." She handed the bowl in her hand to the two of them.
Matchmaker Li looked at Zheng Xiaoman and praised, "Sister, you have taught your daughter very well. She is a sensible girl."
Zhou Chunfeng just smiled and said, "Aunt, what are you doing here today?"
When Matchmaker Li saw that the conversation had gotten to the point, she took a sip of water and put the bowl aside.
"Of course it's a good thing that I'm here."
Zhou Chunfeng guessed that she might be here to propose marriage to her son.
Thinking of this, her tone became a little warmer, "Aunt, what do you mean?"
Matchmaker Li shook the handkerchief in her hand and said, "Oh, I am here today on behalf of someone else to propose marriage to your Xiaoman."
Zhou Chunfeng was stunned. What? It wasn't Qingming Festival in her family, but Xiaoman Festival?
"Aunt, don't joke with me. My Xiaoman is only ten years old. It's too early to talk about marriage."
Matchmaker Li patted her on the shoulder and said, "Look at what you said. If a girl wants to marry someone, she has to start looking for a date early. If she waits until she is older to find a date, the good ones will have already been chosen."
Zhou Chunfeng thought so too, so she asked, "Aunt, which young man are you talking about?"
