Husband, please lend me your virtues

"Yes, sister, take a look at these two. I'm not exaggerating. If you buy them back, I guarantee that the sows in your home will be able to successfully mate with the boars and give birth to piglets."

When the stall owner saw someone coming to ask, he enthusiastically started selling the sow aphrodisiac that had been placed in the corner for a long time and no one was interested in it.

Lin Manman also heard in her previous life that in order to marry into the city, a person went to the black market to buy sow aphrodisiacs and drugged the man. After the matter was settled, she came to the black market. When she knew it was what she wanted, she took a packet and left.

A few days later, Lin Zijin was listening to Lin Ma's story about Lin Manman's experiences in the past few days. In order to save face, Lin Manman did not let Aunt Lin Liu pick up those things, so she rented a house at the foot of the mountain.

A few days ago, I went to the city to buy some stuff, but I heard Aunt Lin Liu scolding me. Lin Manman patted her chest and said that all the items for the new home would be handed over to her, but she only brought back a thin quilt.

Fortunately, it is not winter now, otherwise it would be difficult for the mother and daughter.

Aunt Lin Liu originally wanted to take advantage of Lin Manman's trip to the city to go to Grandma's house and pick up all the things scattered at the door, but when she arrived at the door, the items on the ground had long disappeared, even the private underwear was nowhere to be found.

Just as Mother Lin finished her story, an uninvited guest arrived and there was a loud bang on the Lin family's door.

Xie Zhenguo and his parents, one of whom is Pan Pozi, a famous matchmaker in Xiaolin Village, who was also a witness to the engagement between the original body and Xie Zhenguo. Xie Zhenguo was carrying brown sugar, which was relatively rare at the time, and several pieces of red cloth were exposed in front of everyone.

Lin Zijin went to open the door, and was greeted by Xie's mother with a smile, Xie's father with a gentle expression, and Xie Zhenguo with a stern face.

There were also people nearby who smelled the lively atmosphere and walked slowly over.

"Zijin, is your mother home today?"

"Yes, Aunt Xie, what can I do for you?"

Why such a big fuss? Breaking off the engagement? Judging from the expressions of Xie's parents, it doesn't seem like it!

"Happy event. Since your mother is home, let's go inside and talk about it."

Lin Zijin made way for Xie's mother and others to come in. Last of all, Xie Zhenguo came in and showed the gift he brought with him. Lin Zijin immediately felt something was wrong.

Lin Zijin's premonition was confirmed after the Xie family came in. Mother Lin welcomed them warmly, and the Xie family explained their purpose.

"Sister-in-law, we are here today to discuss the marriage of Zijin and Zhenguo with you."

As soon as Xie's father sat down, he went straight to the point. If he didn't get married, he was afraid that the marriage would be unstable. How could he be worthy of his father Lin who saved his life?

"Our Zhenguo is not young anymore, and Zijin is also of the right age, why not put the marriage on the agenda?"

Mother Lin hesitated. Although Lin Zijin was old enough, she was not ready to marry her daughter off.

But what they said made sense. Xie Zhenguo was almost three years older than her daughter, and there was really no time to delay. If he got married earlier, his children would be running around the village.

"Thank you, brother. These two children are indeed of the right age. I will find someone to pick a date later. Our two families can sit down and discuss the date."

When Lin Zijin heard that they were planning to discuss the marriage with their family, she stared at Xie Zhenguo suspiciously and found that his expression was different from before, and he looked unwilling, as if he was forced to do so.

"Sister-in-law, my husband and I have asked someone to look at dates. The 29th of this month or the 16th of next month are both good dates."

After saying this, Xie's mother held Lin's mother's hand, hoping that she could quickly choose one of the two times. Lin's mother's face looked grim. Was he discussing her daughter's marriage with her, or was he coming to inform her directly?

The Xie family really didn't take the Lin family seriously. They didn't even go through the usual procedures and jumped directly to choosing an auspicious date.

"It's too hasty at this moment. No!" Mother Lin suppressed her emotions and stopped Lin Zijin who was about to speak.

She was in such a hurry that she didn't have enough time to prepare her daughter's dowry and wedding banquet. Besides, the time was too tight and people outside would also wonder what had happened between them that made them so anxious to get married.

"Sister-in-law, although the date was set a little hastily, Zijin is a good child. We will definitely not treat her badly in terms of the betrothal gift."

Mother Xie gestured "five" and said, "Fifty yuan for the betrothal gift, what do you think, sister-in-law?"

A dowry of 50 yuan is already very affordable in their Xiaolin Village. Ordinary families only give 10 or 20 yuan to marry a wife.

If her disappointing son hadn't kissed Lin Zijin's cousin in the grove, she and Xie's father wouldn't have been so anxious to come and ask for an early marriage.

The Xie family does not want a daughter-in-law like Lin Manman and a ruffian in-law like Aunt Lin Liu. Lin Zijin's father once saved Xie's father's life, and the two families had close contacts before. Lin Zijin also grew up under her care, so she can trust his character.

Seeing that Lin Ma was moved, Lin Zijin tugged at her clothes. Lin Ma remembered what Lin Zijin had told her before, "Sister-in-law, let me think about it."

"Aunt Xie, this date is too rushed. I only have my mother and brother at home. My brother is still young, and my mother is getting older. I really can't rest assured that they will be married off in a hurry."

Seeing that Lin Ma did not do as agreed with her, Lin Zijin rejected the Xie family's request to discuss the wedding date first, and despite Lin Ma holding her hand, she voiced her objection.

"Well, what's there to worry about these days? Your mother doesn't need a daughter like you who is about to get married to worry about her. She can still take care of the family now, and she will have her son to worry about her in the future!"

Lin Zijin rolled her eyes. She hadn't even married into the Xie family yet, but they already wanted her to reduce contact with her parents' family.

"Aunt Xie, I don't agree with what you said. Even if a daughter gets married, she is still her mother's daughter. It is her responsibility for her brother to be filial to her in the future."

"If you are so anxious to marry a daughter-in-law, then go find a daughter-in-law who is willing to marry Xie Zhenguo this month. I see that someone is eager to marry Xie Zhenguo."

After hearing this, Xie Zhenguo raised his head and looked at his nominal fiancée. He and Lin Zijin had only had long-term contact when they were young. After growing up, apart from when they were engaged and when giving holiday gifts, he only saw his fiancée.

He didn't know when his fiancée Lin Zijin became so eloquent. It would be nice to get along with a wife like her.

Mother Xie was startled by Lin Zijin's suggestive words, thinking that she knew something. She did not have the time to argue with Lin Zijin about whether Lin Zijin wanted to take the responsibility of the whole family on herself. Instead, she scolded:

"Girl, I was just joking, don't take it seriously, you should think about it with your mother."

Mother Lin looked at her daughter and then at Mother Xie, and finally chose not to say anything.
