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

The matchmaker's face was full of dissatisfaction, her brows were twisted into a ball, and there was a trace of disdain on the corner of her mouth, "Humph, your own conditions are ordinary, but you are as arrogant as a crane in the clouds. It's better not to marry. In this world, the people who want me to matchmake can line up at the end of the village. Losing you is not a big loss."

After hearing this, Wu's mother felt like she was hit by a heavy hammer in her heart. Her face turned pale, and there was a hurt light in her eyes. She was speechless for a moment.

She knew very well that she should not pursue marriage blindly, and she secretly decided that even if she was alone, she would live a wonderful life.

So she bit her lower lip gently and ignored the harsh words.

However, Wu's mother, who was watching quietly from the side, felt mixed emotions.

She understood that Wu Yue was of marriageable age, and if the marriage fell through, gossip in the village would spread like weeds in the spring breeze.

Even if one could only find an ordinary peasant marriage for Wu's mother, it would be better than letting her wait at home for a marriage proposal from a wealthy family which was almost impossible to appear.

Thinking of this, Wu's mother decisively took out a small stack of copper coins from her wide sleeves, a total of one hundred coins, and carefully handed it to the matchmaker, "My girl is young and ignorant, please be magnanimous and don't take it to heart. Her lifelong affairs still depend on you to take care of her. If you find a suitable candidate, please let us know."

The matchmaker looked at the heavy stack of money, the dissatisfaction on her face gradually disappeared, and a barely perceptible smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

After all, no one in this area can match her matchmaking skills, and this confidence makes her feel at ease in any occasion.

But in a flash, when the matchmaker found that she only had a few hundred coins in her hand, the smile on her face froze, and she broke the awkward silence with two deliberate coughs. "Alas, it's probably very difficult to accomplish anything big with this little money. Those big and famous families who invited me to be a matchmaker would spend many times more than this. But, although the money is small, it also shows a kind of thought, so I will do my best according to this standard."

Before she finished speaking, Wu's mother waved her hand to stop him, a trace of anxiety flashing in her eyes, "No, don't do this, I will go home immediately to get some more money. Please think about it seriously, my girl's marriage depends on you."

After saying this, Wu's mother wanted to turn around and go into the inner room to get the money.

Looking at Wu's mother's haggard face, Wu Yue thought that it was inappropriate to take money from Wu's mother's dowry, which was not rich to begin with, so it would be better for her to pay for it first.

At this time, Guan Taohua felt the subtle change in the atmosphere. She felt that it was not appropriate for her to stay any longer, so she found an excuse to leave. "Well, Mother Wu, I still have a lot of work to do at home, especially those chickens that have not been fed yet. I'd better go back and take a look first."

Wu's mother was extremely busy and had no time to care whether Guan Taohua stayed or left. She just waved her hand casually, signaling her to leave.

As Guan Taohua stepped out of the door, a heart-wrenching cry came from inside the house, deafening.

Wu's mother's scream pierced the air and echoed through the sky, startling the neighbors around, who all stuck their heads out to look.

"What happened?"

Guan Taohua's heart tightened and she quickly turned around and went back.

The matchmaker also looked confused, and Wu's mother looked anxious and angry.

The whole person seemed to have lost his backbone and was at a loss.

"My money, my money is gone! How could a thief appear in my house?!"

Mother Wu's voice was filled with despair and her hands were shaking.

When the matchmaker heard that the money was lost, she thought to herself that it was not advisable to stay in such a place of trouble for long, so she quickly looked for an excuse to leave to avoid getting into trouble.

After all, the hundred coins were already in hand, so offering a little help would be the most I could do.

Seeing this, Guan Taohua suppressed the urge to help and quietly left the room, leaving Wu's mother alone to struggle in the chaos and confusion.

Soon, Wu Younian, Wu Ming and Xie Di returned home one after another. The matchmaker's sudden visit caused quite a stir in the family. A storm about money, dignity and family reputation was quietly brewing.

"Who on earth are you? How dare you touch my house? How can the money I worked so hard to save just disappear like that?"

Anxiety and powerlessness were intertwined in Wu's mother's voice. Her eyes were like searchlights, scanning everyone's face carefully, trying to catch traces of betrayal from the subtle changes in their expressions.

Wu Younian looked puzzled, his eyebrows twisted into a knot: "Your question is really incomprehensible. Our village is simple and honest. Who would do such a wicked thing and touch your money?"

The expressions of Wu Ming and his wife were even more complicated.

For them, they had finally dealt with Ran He's affairs and were planning their family's future with great hope. This sudden blow was like a bucket of cold water, which extinguished all their warmth and longings.

"Mom, do you mean that our house was robbed?"

Wu Ming's wife asked worriedly, with anxiety evident in her eyes.

At this moment, Wu Yue's marriage seems to no longer be the primary concern of the family.

That real money became a huge stone on everyone's chest.

Mother Wu sat on the ground helplessly, tears rolling down her cheeks like pearls from a broken string: "In just a moment, all my money was gone, not a single penny left. How am I going to live from now on? How am I going to prepare for my children's future?"

Her voice was filled with desperation and pleading.

Wu Younian tried to calm down and analyze the situation rationally: "Mom, don't worry. Let's think about it carefully. Is it possible that someone knows where you hid the money? We should also ask around in the village. Maybe we can find some clues."

Hearing this, everyone fell into deep thought.

Wu Younian's speculation is not without reason. If someone really tampered with the matter, the person who is familiar with it is most likely someone in the village.

This idea was like a ray of light, which lifted Wu's mother's spirits.

If it was really done by the villagers, then there might still be hope of recovering the money.

However, after some thought, no one locked on any clear suspects.

At this time, Xie Di muttered in a low voice, breaking the silence: "Could it be... Ran He? She has always been resentful of us, and took advantage of us not being at home..."

This sentence was like a spark, instantly igniting the anger in Wu's mother's heart.

She stood up suddenly, her anger almost overflowing: "Yes, it must be Ran He! Not only did she steal my money, but she also caused Wu Yue's marriage to fall through! Even the matchmaker said that it was she who ruined Wu Yue's reputation outside, which is why the family of the official broke off the engagement. I must settle this account with her today!"

Faced with Wu's mother's excitement, Wu Younian, although unwilling to give in, still retained some rationality and held his mother tightly as she was about to rush out the door: "Mom, there is no evidence, we can't just accuse people. We have to be reasonable, otherwise the matter will only get bigger and bigger, and we will suffer the consequences."
