Reborn as a farmer's favorite, Koi sweet wife super lucky husband

The two of you standing together are simply a match made in heaven."

Wu's mother talked a lot, her words full of pride and expectation. The matchmaker nodded in agreement, almost praising the two of them to the sky.

Butcher Luo had a good first impression of Gu Qing. Compared to the women he had met before, she was more attractive, with a plump figure, and looked like a good candidate for childbearing.

That’s right, the first thing Luo the butcher did when he entered the room was to examine Gu Qing’s appearance and figure. After all, in his eyes, whether he could inherit the family bloodline was the most important consideration.

If it couldn't bring him a healthy heir, he would never consider this marriage.

"How is it? I didn't lie to you, did I? This girl is really good. If you think she's suitable, we can get married. If you miss this opportunity, there won't be a next time."

As the matchmaker spoke, she secretly glanced at Luo the Butcher's reaction out of the corner of her eye, her eyes full of expectation and calculation.

Luo the butcher smiled knowingly. He had already been tempted by the matchmaker's words and couldn't wait to say, "Okay, I agree to this marriage, but how much do you plan to ask for the bride price?"

Mother Wu pretended to hesitate, with an embarrassment on her face, and said with some reluctance: "Just ten taels of silver. It's not easy to raise a daughter, and we also hope that she can live a good life in the future. These ten taels of silver are our little token of support for her in her old age."

"Ten taels of silver? Are you kidding me?"

Luo the butcher snorted disdainfully. The highest price he had seen in the past was only five taels. Now here, not only has the price doubled, but even though Gu Qing is slightly better than those women, she is not a stunning beauty.

Seeing that Luo the Butcher had objections, Wu's mother was afraid that the betrothal gift would fly away, so she quickly took advantage of the situation and pressed him, with a flattering tone in her voice: "Hey, Luo the Butcher, you are from a wealthy family, and your family has been engaged in the slaughtering industry for generations. Ten taels of silver is just a drop in the bucket for you. Besides, you need a virtuous wife. Look at my Gu Qing, she is not only good-looking, but also a good housekeeper. This investment is definitely worth it."

First give someone a compliment, and then everything else will naturally be smooth and unobstructed, just like spring water melting ice.

"My daughter has grown up in a honey pot. She is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. She has a gentle temperament and is virtuous. It is really worthwhile to ask you for ten taels of silver. Just think about it. In the future, she will give you a fat and lovable grandson. That will truly make your family prosperous and bring honor to your ancestors."

The matchmaker also joined in the conversation, her face beaming with joy, her voice full of enthusiasm and affirmation, "That's right, you are the only child left in your family. If you don't hurry up and marry a wife and have a few more children, won't this mansion be so deserted that not even a laugh can be heard? Having a large family is a blessing."

After some earnest persuasion, Butcher Luo's tense heartstrings gradually relaxed. His hands, which were particularly rough from years of knife work, rubbed his clothes for several times. Finally, he gritted his teeth and took out the heavy ten taels of silver from his pocket as a sincere gift to marry the beautiful woman.

Gu Qing stood aside, unable to hide her displeasure on her face. She felt like a commodity in the market, subject to comment and bargaining. The feeling of being treated as a commodity was like needles piercing her heart, tormenting her self-esteem.

"I have given enough betrothal gifts, and I will take her away today. As for how many tables of wedding wine to serve, it is up to us men to decide, and you women should not interfere."

Butcher Luo changed the subject and put forward another condition, his tone revealing an unquestionable firmness.

Mother Wu thought to herself that she didn't have the money to spend lavishly in Fushan Village anyway, so instead of doing that, she might as well go along with his wishes and save herself the trouble.

As long as the wedding is decent and lively, why should she worry about it?

After all, my daughter is not marrying into a prominent family, so what's the point of worrying so much?

So, in the midst of everyone's complicated looks, Gu Qing was taken away by Butcher Luo.

Mother Wu held the heavy ten taels of silver in her hand, examining it over and over again, as if it was not just silver, but some kind of key to changing her destiny. In the end, she put it in her arms as if it were a treasure.

Xie Di looked at her mother's back, frowning slightly, and a trace of worry surged in her heart: "Mom, we have to hide the money well. Don't let those thieves get away with it like last time. Our family's life will be even more difficult."

Her words were full of remembrance of past lessons, as well as a hint of worry about her family's financial situation.

If she hadn't known her mother's stubbornness, she would have even volunteered to keep this hard-earned wealth for her.

Therefore, she could only remind him carefully in this way.

After all, if anything goes wrong with the money again, it will be their whole family that will suffer.

"Don't worry, I've learned my lesson this time. I specially sewed a small, dense cloth bag on my pants to keep my money with me. Which thief would dare to steal it?"

After the last lesson, Wu's mother seemed full of confidence, as if everything was under control.

As for Ran He, even if he knew about the ten taels of silver he got from selling Gu Qing, he would not be greedy anymore.

After all, this money is stained with too many favors, and I would feel guilty if I took it.

"No, I have to go to Wu Xu in person. That ungrateful and rebellious son keeps clamoring to cut off ties with us. I think he is probably bewitched by that little girl Ran He. Want to get rid of me? Dream on! Qing'er is his biological sister after all. For such a big event as her marriage, he has to act like a brother and give some money to prepare the dowry. Even if he has to 'borrow' from Ran He, he has to 'borrow' some money from me!"

Mother Wu spoke in a firm tone, as if she would not give up until she achieved her goal.

Xie Di did not object. Since her mother had made up her mind, she said nothing more.

It's always good to have more money at home, so she chose to support it silently.

Wu's mother acted immediately and rushed to Ran He's residence in a hurry, her heart filled with anxiety to achieve her goal.

At the same time, Ran He was busy in the clinic, sending away the last patient - the wealthy businessman, and carefully reminding him to return to the clinic on time to remove the stitches.

She knew that once the stitches healed, the businessman would be able to eat normally again, and that his lost tooth had unexpectedly cured his chronic toothache.

The businessman was amazed at Ran He's medical skills and almost compared her to a reborn Hua Tuo.

As word of mouth spread, Ran He's name became more and more famous in the town. People all knew that there was a miracle doctor here who could cure all diseases and bring people back to life. There was no problem that could not be solved by her treatment.

Such reputation is both an honor and a heavy burden. It holds Ran He high up, as if he were placing him above the clouds.
