A strong farm girl is busy getting rich

It was already late when Shen Qingfeng returned from the village.

However, Shen Qinglan and Shen Qingqian were still waiting for him.

However, when Shen Qingfeng came in, the joy on his face from the afternoon was gone, and was replaced by a hint of sadness.

Shen Qinglan and Shen Qingqian looked at each other and saw worry in each other's eyes.

Shen Qinglan asked, "Qingfeng, what's wrong? Did the Liu landlord family embarrass you again?"

Shen Qingfeng shook his head and said, "No, I sent Shuyao to the door and didn't go in.

I was thinking that the proposal should be made by my parents, so it would be inappropriate for me to go alone, right?"

Shen Qingqian slapped her thigh and said, "Yes! How could I have forgotten about this!

My eldest sister and I have left the Shen family, but my second brother is still a member of the Shen family!"

Shen Qinglan also echoed: "Yes! I was confused too! My parents are still alive, how can I propose marriage by myself?"

Shen Qingfeng said: "After I sent Shuyao back home today, I went back home and sent the monthly 500 coins over. Then I remembered this matter!

My parents usually don't care about us, so I'm used to doing everything on my own. But this matter, I really can't bypass them!"

"But if they knew that you were going to spend two hundred taels of silver as a betrothal gift to propose marriage, who knows what kind of trouble Xu Guihua would cause? Your marriage would be in jeopardy!"

Shen Qingqian was almost furious!

Shen Qingfeng said: "Little sister, don't worry, there is always a way to solve the problem. I will go to my father tomorrow and find out what he has to say.

No matter how much the betrothal gift is, I have not asked him for a penny. If he is willing to go to the Liu family to propose marriage, then everyone will be happy.

If he is still the same as before, once Xu Guihua instigates him, he will not only not help, but also deliberately obstruct. I will have to bear the reputation of being unfilial and go to propose marriage myself!"

Shen Qinglan said: "Qingfeng is right, you have to tell him about this. The shoes are big or small, you can't lose your shape.

If he objects, we can bypass him. The eldest sister is like a mother, at worst, the eldest sister can go for you! In any case, we must go and ask for the marriage the day after tomorrow!"

After the three sisters had discussed it, they went back to sleep.

The next morning, Shen Qingfeng and Afu started to take care of the hot pot restaurant, while Shen Qingqian and Shen Qinglan went out shopping!

They planned to buy some presentable things, hire a better matchmaker, and go to the Liu family to propose marriage in a grand manner tomorrow!

The two first went to the cloth shop and selected six pieces of high-quality cloth.

Shen Qingqian originally wanted to just take the pieces of cloth sent by the Zhou Mansion, but Shen Qingfeng firmly disagreed.

She said that the cloth was too valuable, one piece was worth a hundred taels of silver, and she wanted to keep it as a dowry for Shen Qingqian in the future.

Shen Qingqian didn't insist, so she went outside with Shen Qinglan to buy it.

After asking the shopkeeper to send the cloth back to the shop, the two went to a jewelry store.

It was Shen Qingqian’s first time visiting a jewelry store, and she felt that every piece of jewelry was very beautiful.

Shen Qinglan was also very excited, and took Shen Qingqian's hand and said, "Qingqian, that pearl necklace is so beautiful!

Qingqian, that gold hairpin is beautiful too!

Qingqian, look at that jade bracelet!

......"

"Big sis, whichever one do you like, I'll buy it for you!"

Shen Qingqian said proudly.

As soon as he mentioned buying it, Shen Qinglan backed off and said, "I'm just looking at it. It's a good thing and I'm happy to look at it."

Shen Qingqian pointed at a golden hairpin and said to the shop assistant, "Brother Xiaoer, let me see this!"

"Come on!"

The waiter smiled happily and quickly brought it up to them, saying, "Young lady, you have good eyesight. This is a new model that has just arrived in our store. Look at the craftsmanship and the quality. They are both top-notch!"

"Well, I think it's good. How much is it?" Shen Qingqian looked at the hairpin carefully and liked it more and more.

The waiter said, "Miss, this is twenty taels of silver."

Shen Qingqian thought it was a little expensive and said, "Little Second Brother, can this be cheaper?"

The waiter said, "Miss, the new jewelry in our store cannot be cheap!"

Shen Qingqian had already planned to buy it and was about to bargain when she heard a discordant voice.

"Who was I thinking wanted to buy a gold hairpin? Turns out it was my second sister?"

Shen Qingqian and Shen Qinglan turned around at the same time and saw Shen Jiao and Gao Xiuwen walking in.

Before Shen Qingqian could speak, Shen Jiao looked at Shen Qinglan and said, "So, elder sister is here too? Why, do you two want to buy gold hairpins?

I just heard from the waiter that this hairpin costs twenty taels of silver!

I wonder if the eldest and second sisters are here to take a look or to buy something?"

Gao Xiuwen had never told Shen Jiao about the hot pot restaurant opened by Shen Qingqian and others, so Shen Jiao didn't know that they had made a lot of money.

Shen Jiao was certain that Shen Qingqian could not afford the gold hairpin, so she spoke very loudly so that all the customers in the store could hear her.

Sure enough, everyone else in the store looked over here.

Shen Qingqian glanced at her and said, "It seems that you are going to buy it today. How about I give this hairpin to you?"

How could Shen Jiao afford it! That is to say, Shen Qingfeng sent them back 500 coins yesterday, and Xu Guihua gave her 100 coins, which was only enough to buy a pearl flower at best!

She said, “Second sister, I am just shopping with Brother Xiuwen, and we will buy it when we get married.

I saw you bargaining with the waiter just now, so you must be sincere in buying it, right?

"Little Second Brother, please give my Second Sister a discount, nineteen taels of silver, how about that?"

Shen Jiao was waiting to see Shen Qingqian's embarrassing situation when she couldn't come up with the money!

Gao Xiuwen half clenched his hand into a fist, put it to his lips and coughed twice, feeling a little uncomfortable.

Shen Qingqian sneered at the corner of his mouth and said to the waiter, "Brother Xiaoer, I want three for eighteen taels of silver!"

"Oh, three?"

The waiter was stunned for a moment, then quickly said, "Please wait a moment, young lady. I'll go get the shopkeeper to come over."

Shen Jiao and Gao Xiuwen were also shocked by Shen Qingqian's words!

Others also stared at Shen Qingqian with wide eyes, wondering how could this girl, who was dressed so ordinary, be so generous?

I don’t know if I’m really going to buy it or just pretending to be rich?

Shen Jiao quickly came back to her senses, she sighed heavily, and said earnestly: "Second sister, this is the Silver Treasure Pavilion, if you play tricks on the store like this, it will not end well in the end!

How about this, while the waiter is not here, you should leave now!"

Shen Qingqian was speechless about Shen Jiao. She taunted, "Shen Jiao, I haven't seen you for a few days. You seem to have a stronger taste of green tea!"

Shen Jiao was stunned, not understanding what she meant!

Shen Qingqian just looked at her with contempt and said nothing more, thinking that she would slap her hard in the face later!

The shopkeeper came down quickly, and the waiter pointed at Shen Qingqian and said, "Shopkeeper, this girl wants to buy three gold hairpins."

Shen Qingqian also went up to him and said, "Shopkeeper, I want to buy three of these gold hairpins, but can you give me a discount, maybe eighteen taels for each one?"
