A strong farm girl is busy getting rich
Chapter 52 Some are happy and some are worried
Mrs. Liu did not come out, she was extremely reluctant!
However, it was she who proposed it herself. As long as Shen Qingfeng offered a betrothal gift of 200 taels of silver, she would agree to the marriage.
At the beginning, Shen Qingfeng worked in their Liu family, and he only earned three hundred coins a month, and a little over three taels of silver a year. He could not earn more than two hundred taels in his entire life!
So, she originally wanted to deliberately embarrass Shen Qingfeng so that he would back down, but who knew that he would actually agree!
Things have come to this point, she can no longer embarrass the Shen family, but she can't be too enthusiastic either!
Shen Qingfeng parked the ox cart in front of the Liu family's gate, then lifted the red cloth on it, revealing the cloth, pork and snacks inside.
While the villagers were feasting their eyes, they were also sighing.
"Oh, Qingfeng is really generous! He brought so many good things to propose marriage!"
"Who says it's not true? After all, we are seeking to marry the daughter of Landlord Liu. If the things are shabby, we can't show them off!"
"That's half a fan of pork! How much does it cost? My family has only bought four pounds of pork this year, and we haven't had any meat for two months! Look at others, ah, you can't compare!"
"And the cloth, it looks like it's all top-quality cloth, there are six pieces!"
"There are six boxes of snacks too!"
The villagers were talking to each other, with nothing but envy and jealousy in their eyes.
When Xu Guihua saw those things, she was also shocked, and felt jealous and unwilling in her heart!
Yesterday, she was still very proud of the five hundred coins sent by Shen Qingfeng! Unexpectedly, today, Shen Qingfeng sent more than five taels of silver to the Liu family!
Watching Shen Qingfeng moving things into the Liu family one by one, Xu Guihua felt more and more uncomfortable!
However, she couldn't take the things back and could only curse Shen Qingfeng in her heart.
The matchmaker was smart. While the Shen family and landlord Liu were chatting in the yard, she quickly went into the main hall and handed the two hundred taels of silver to Mrs. Liu.
Mrs. Liu should have been happy to get so much silver, but she just couldn't feel happy!
She always felt that she had made a mistake!
Liu Shuyao hid in her room, secretly watching Shen Qingfeng walk into the yard with a happy face. She felt sweet in her heart, but tears welled up in her eyes.
That day, for some reason, her mother suddenly said that she wanted to marry her to a family named Gu in the town. Of course she would not agree!
She heard that the Gu family was a wealthy family, and she thought that her mother must be doing this for her own good, fearing that she would marry into a poor family and suffer.
So, she did not throw a tantrum, but planned to have a good talk with her mother, using both reason and emotion to convince her mother to cancel the marriage.
When she arrived at her parents' door with a lot of words prepared to persuade her mother, she heard her parents arguing.
The content of the quarrel was her marriage, so she stood at the door and did not go in.
But what did she hear?
The young master of the Gu family that her mother told her about turned out to be a fool!
At that moment, her heart was broken! She thought it was "for her own good" but it was just her thought!
She didn't understand why her mother treated her like this?
She staggered back to her room, locked herself in it, refused to eat or drink, and even felt like she had lost all desire to live.
Later, her father came to see her, but she didn't open the door.
Her father stood at the door and said that he had helped her turn down the Gu family's proposal. And her mother said that as long as Shen Qingfeng could come up with a betrothal gift of 200 taels of silver, she would agree to let her marry Shen Qingfeng.
Her father told her to be well and that he would go to the town to talk to Shen Qingfeng, and then he left.
Hearing this, she seemed to see the light at the end of the tunnel.
She took out all her private money and all her jewelry, then ran to the town following her father to find Shen Qingfeng.
In the end, Shen Qingfeng did not ask for her money, saying that he had his own way and asked her to just wait at home until he came to marry her!
Liu Yuyao was thinking about what had happened in the past few days and before she knew it, she was in tears.
Today, she finally waited for him!
At this time, Liu Yuyao was also hiding in the house alone, but she was in a different mood!
Liu Yuyao was very angry! Her mother had clearly agreed to her proposal and let Liu Shuyao marry into the Gu family.
Gu Ru also told her family about this and even invited a matchmaker to propose marriage.
But when Liu Shuyao made a fuss, her father directly refused!
She couldn't even explain to Gu Ru!
It was all Liu Shuyao's fault. She actually refused the marriage by going on a hunger strike! She wanted to see how Liu Shuyao would end up marrying a peasant regardless of everything.
And her mother, how did she do things? She found some useless trash and couldn't even catch Shen Qingqian!
The Qiao family's Hongxiangyuan has already opened, but she hasn't done what she promised. How will Qiao Peiqing look at her!
Liu Yuyao gnashed her teeth in hatred, to the point that her originally pretty face became distorted.
Since her parents didn't help her and both sided with Liu Shuyao, she would have to find a way out on her own! In short, no one in the Shen family would have an easy life!
Liu Yuyao made up her mind and seemed to have found an outlet to vent her feelings, so she stopped sulking alone.
She straightened her clothes and slowly walked out of the house.
She wanted to see if those poor guys in the Shen family could really come up with two hundred taels of silver!
In the main hall, the men were talking happily. However, Madam Liu and Xu Guihua were both thinking about their own things, and neither of them spoke.
Only the matchmaker smiled and said nice things to avoid the atmosphere being too awkward.
When Liu Yuyao arrived at the main hall, the two families had already exchanged engagement letters and began to discuss the wedding date.
Landlord Liu wanted the two to get married after the Chinese New Year, but Shen Qingfeng wanted to get married before the New Year.
Finally, after some discussion, the wedding date was set as the 16th day of the first lunar month next year.
Today's marriage proposal went smoothly. Shen Qingfeng wanted to meet Liu Shuyao before leaving, but Liu Shuyao never showed up.
Shen Qingfeng was a little disappointed. He stood up, bowed to Landlord Liu and Madam Liu, and said, "Uncle Liu, Aunt, thank you for marrying Shuyao to me. I will definitely treat Shuyao well in the future!
I'll take my leave today and come back to see you and Shuyao another day."
Mrs. Liu's expression remained indifferent the entire time. She just nodded and said nothing.
Landlord Liu was very enthusiastic. He stood up and escorted the Shen family out of the main hall.
Xu Guihua was feeling unhappy, so she walked very quickly and reached the gate of the courtyard in just two or three steps.
Shen Dakuan and Landlord Liu walked and talked, walking very slowly. Shen Qingfeng followed them and secretly looked towards Liu Shuyao's room.
Liu Shuyao was hiding in the room, with the door slightly open, secretly looking outside.
Her mother told her to stay in the house today and not to come out.
At this moment, seeing Shen Qingfeng looking at her, her heart was beating like a drum and she had the urge to rush out, but she held back!
Shen Qingfeng seemed to sense something, grinned, and blinked in the direction of Liu Shuyao.
