The bad man who is a womanizer, go on a blind date in a hurry

Chapter 45 When something goes wrong, there must be a monster

The eldest brother-in-law flicked his handkerchief and revealed another absolute highlight of Lu Yao - a tiger-fighting hero!

"What? So the tiger-fighting hero is you!" Mother Liu stood up in shock!

The tiger's harm was not limited to one place. When the tiger was alive, every village within a hundred miles was in fear.

But later, everyone received an announcement from the Ping'an County government: A tiger-slaying hero has descended from the sky, and the tiger problem has been eliminated!

The villagers can finally go to work in the fields and go up the mountain to chop firewood with peace of mind. They are so grateful that they cannot express it in words.

Although I don't know which hero did this, I am grateful.

Now, the tiger-fighting hero is right in front of them, how can the Liu family not be excited.

"My daughter, this is a great deed!" Mother Liu clasped her fists and bowed to Lu Yao: "Thank you on behalf of my family!"

Lu Yao quickly stood up and returned the greeting: "Don't worry, aunt! You are the elder, I can't bear it."

"Don't be modest, girl. Killing a tiger is not something that ordinary people can do!"

"This girl is amazing!" The rest of the Liu family also praised her.

For a moment, Lu Yao felt even more embarrassed.

After introducing for so long, this is probably the only thing that does not fall into the scope of blind date jargon.

But she didn't beat the tiger to death, she "smashed" it to death.

She still felt a little guilty.

"Yao'er, don't be embarrassed," the eldest brother-in-law smiled and pushed Lu Yao back onto the stool, then turned around and said to the Liu family:

“My sister is very shy and never brags about her tiger hunting experience.

In fact, the county magistrate met with her specially because of this matter and rewarded her with twenty taels of silver!"

"Oh~!", "Great!", "What a promising young man!"

The reward of twenty taels of silver was more attractive than beating a tiger, and the Liu family once again burst into praise for Lu Yao, who had gained both fame and fortune.

Seeing that everyone's eyes were bright, the eldest brother-in-law said:

"These twenty taels of silver are not a small amount for our peasant family. But my parents-in-law are generous and open-minded, and they love me very much.

Therefore, the old couple decided to take out ten taels of silver as a betrothal gift to find a husband for my sister!"

Now you have come to see me. If it is successful, you can come to propose marriage next time and you can bring these ten taels of silver to the Liu family.

hiss!

A betrothal gift of ten taels of silver!

Some members of the Liu family have already begun to gasp.

In this era when the common marriage price in the village was two taels of silver, a dowry of ten taels of silver was considered a sky-high price among the common people.

Now, the betrothal gift is right in front of our family, who wouldn’t be excited!

For a while, the sounds of praise and discussion were endless, and even in the small main room of the Liu family, there was a lot of noise.

Everyone was whispering to each other about the ten taels of silver as a betrothal gift.

Some people have even started congratulating Mr. Liu for finding such a good woman.

Everyone was in high spirits, but some people became more clear-headed.

Uncle Liu was thinking secretly: The Lu family is not a landlord, they are just an ordinary farming family. They are willing to spend so much money to marry a man. Could there be something shameful going on?

The careful Uncle Liu suddenly became alert.

It was just because he remembered some gossip he had heard when he was bored and chatting with others at the entrance of the village.

In a certain village, a certain family was looking for a husband and gave three times the bride price.

He said that his daughter was a good one, but she was very honest and didn't like to go out and see people, so if the bride price was higher, he would not be interested in her.

The other party was deceived and just saw the high bride price and agreed without giving it much thought.

But after entering the room, I found out that the so-called honest man who didn't like to go out and see people was because he had a broken leg and had been bedridden for several years.

Thinking of this, Uncle Liu shuddered in his heart.

There must be something wrong when something is abnormal. The Lu family's betrothal gift is five times as much. Could there be some big trap?

This is a major matter that concerns my son's lifelong happiness, and I cannot be careless!

Father Liu cleared his throat and asked, "We are all farmers, and it is not easy to save money. This is the first time I have seen someone willing to pay so much money as a betrothal gift.

Is there something going on here?"

After saying that, he looked at Lu Yao and then at the matchmaker.

Uncle Liu's words instantly quieted down everyone in the room.

I was so happy just now that I didn't think much about it, but now I was awakened by the words of the head of the family, Uncle Liu.

Everyone pays two taels of silver to marry a husband, why does your family pay so much more?

Since you can offer such a high bride price, why not go to the county town to marry the son of a scholar?

There is even an ultimate question - if you have such good conditions, why haven't you gotten married yet?

Everyone looked over at the same time, their eyes darting back and forth between Lu Yao and her eldest brother-in-law, as if asking: Is there something wrong with your family?

Lu Yao quietly shouted in her heart: It's coming, it's coming! The time to fill the hole for the original owner Er Gouzi has come again!

My brother-in-law wasn't panicked at all.

He had considered this issue a long time ago.

After all, it was he who came up with the idea of ​​offering a high bride price to marry a man.

After so many years in the industry, what kind of scenes has he not seen?

Most people who go on blind dates will ask similar questions when they meet for the first time.

Don't panic at this time. What to say and what to hide all depend on experience and skills.

"Oh my, my Lord, you are worried, aren't you?"

The eldest brother-in-law threw his handkerchief at Father Liu, turned around and came to Lu Yao, patting her shoulder with his hand:

"Yao'er is sitting right here. You can see that she is not missing any limbs. Her eyes are clear and her mind is not stupid. Are you relieved?"

Uncle Liu looked at Lu Yao.

Indeed, he looks quite good, he walks with a limp and speaks fluently, he doesn't look like a sick child.

"I have brought the person here. It's not like we are hiding him from you. You are worrying for nothing."

No matter what, Lu Yao's appearance, speech and behavior are impeccable, and people like her as soon as they see her.

The eldest brother-in-law deliberately guided the family and emphasized the meeting first to deepen the Liu family's good impression of Lu Yao.

Then he answered the Liu family's question: "As for why Yao'er's betrothal gift is so high, it's because Yao'er has 20 taels of reward silver!"

On the way here, my brother-in-law and Lu Yao had already discussed this issue.

My brother-in-law believes that if the other party asks this question during a blind date, you should never answer it directly.

If you answer directly, "It's because I want to find a husband as soon as possible," the other party will continue to ask a series of questions, "Why are you in such a hurry to find a husband? Why didn't you find one before? Why didn't all the previous ones work out?" and so on.

In order to answer these questions, you will be led to say a lot, and you will be exposed if you are not careful.

Therefore, the answers to all the questions should be put on the twenty taels of silver reward!

We give more because we can afford it, we have money, and we are willful, it’s that simple!

Sure enough, after the eldest brother-in-law finished speaking, the Liu family did not continue to ask any questions. Some people probably had already imagined a lot of things on their own, just as the eldest brother-in-law had expected.

But Uncle Liu's brows were still furrowed.

Like Lu Yao's father, he is the legal husband of the family and has the power to manage the household.

It is said that whoever is the housekeeper knows that life is not easy.

There are dozens of people in the family, and they need money for everything from food, clothing, housing and transportation. They need to be thrifty in life, and they wish they could split a penny into several petals.

If the Liu family had received the twenty taels of silver as a reward, Father Liu felt that he would not have the courage to give such a large amount as a betrothal gift to a child.

It's not like you have twenty taels of silver every year, so can't you just live it down a little?

He looked at Lu Yao again and felt that what the matchmaker had said just now could not resolve his doubts.

Lu Yao also glanced at Uncle Liu and understood the look in his eyes.

She has to do this!
