Dressed as a farmer's widow, she brought her daughter to stock up on food and reached the top
Chapter 190 Sacrifice for this family
Hongmei curled her lips and said disapprovingly, "Humph, you only care about other people's help, and don't even consider whether they are willing to marry their daughter to your family."
Tian Guilan glared at him, "Why not? How is my Guangzong unworthy of her, Sun Huahua?"
Hongmei sneered, "Don't you see the situation in your family? How can Mrs. Sun feel safe marrying her daughter here?"
Tian Guilan slammed the table in anger and said, "Stop making sarcastic remarks here. My Guangzong is a down-to-earth and capable man. He will definitely have a good life in the future."
Hongmei crossed her arms and said, "Alright, alright, just stay here and enjoy yourself. This thing hasn't happened yet anyway."
Tian Guilan rolled her eyes at her and said, "Whether it succeeds or not, it's not your turn to comment on it."
Hongmei smiled and said to Tian Guilan, "I'm just joking, but you're so anxious. We're sisters, so who's who? I heard that the girl from the Sun family is going to be a marriage of marriage next month. If Sister Guilan really likes her, then I, Hongmei, will volunteer to be the matchmaker."
When Tian Guilan heard this, the expression on her face softened slightly, and she looked at Hongmei doubtfully, "Can you really go and tell her? Will the eldest sister-in-law of the Sun family give you face?"
Hongmei patted her chest and assured: "Sister Guilan, don't worry, I will give it a try. Whether it succeeds or not, it's always a chance, right?"
Tian Guilan narrowed her eyes slightly and thought to herself: Although Hongmei is not very reliable on weekdays, if she can really make it work, it will save me a lot of trouble.
So she said, "Okay, Sister Hongmei, I'll leave this matter to you. If it succeeds, I won't forget your kindness, and you don't have to return the borrowed grain."
Hongmei replied with a smile: "Sister Guilan, look at what you said. We are sisters, so it's only natural for us to help each other."
Guangzong got anxious when he heard Hongmei and her mother's conversation. He rushed to them, his face flushed, and said, "Mom, I don't like Sun Huahua. She looks like a dried cowpea. What's so good about her? I don't want to marry Sun Huahua!"
Tian Guilan glared at Guangzong and scolded him, "What do you know, kid? What's wrong with the Sun family's daughter?"
Guangzong stiffened his neck and retorted: "Anyway, I just don't like her. She is thin and small, and she looks unlucky."
He paced back and forth in the room anxiously. "My ideal daughter-in-law is not like her, don't worry about it."
Tian Guilan stood up angrily, pointing at Guangzong and cursing, "You ungrateful thing! It's our blessing that the Sun family's daughter can marry into our family."
Guangzong was not to be outdone: "Give this blessing to others, I don't want it!" After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and ran out angrily.
Tian Guilan hurriedly chased after him, grabbed Guangzong and said, "Son, listen to what mother says. The Sun family has stored grain, but it belongs to someone else.
When Sun Huahua marries us, will her family not give us food? Besides, Sun Huahua has a good temper and is easy to control. You will have the final say in the family from now on."
Guangzong broke free from Tian Guilan's hand and said angrily, "Mother, why are you only thinking about food? I didn't marry a wife for food. Besides, I don't want to marry someone who is easy to control. I want to marry someone I really like."
Tian Guilan frowned and said, "Do you think liking something can be eaten? You have to be practical when it comes to life. Someone like Sun Huahua can take good care of you and make you comfortable."
Guangzong looked helpless and shouted, "Mom, your idea is ridiculous. Sun Huahua and I are not suitable at all."
After saying this, Guangzong ran away angrily.
Tian Guilan helplessly watched Guangzong run away, shook her head and turned back to the house. As soon as she entered the house, she saw the second son Yaozu sitting in the corner, looking thoughtful.
Tian Guilan said angrily, "None of them give me peace of mind."
Yaozu thought for a moment and suddenly said, "Mom, big brother doesn't want to marry Sun Huahua, but I do."
Tian Guilan was startled and stared at Yaozu and asked, "What did you say?"
Yaozu took a deep breath and said, "Mom, I'm willing to marry Sun Huahua. The Sun family has stored food, so if I marry her, we'll have enough to eat. And Sun Huahua is hardworking, so if I marry her, I won't have to work in the fields. I'm willing to sacrifice for this family."
When he said this, his eyes flickered, but he was actually thinking about his own little plan in his mind.
Tian Guilan looked at Yaozu with doubt and said, "Don't act on impulse. Marriage is not a joke."
Yaozu quickly assured: "Mom, I've thought it through, really."
The room suddenly became quiet, with only the breeze outside the window blowing gently, ruffling the tattered window paper.
Hongmei also came over at this moment, with a shrewd glint in her eyes, and said, "Sister Guilan, I think Yaozu's idea is not bad. If this marriage is successful, the future of your two families will be much easier."
Tian Guilan frowned and said hesitantly, "Will this work? Can Yaozu be trusted? Sun Huahua is older than Yaozu."
Hongmei said quickly, "Why is he unreliable? So what if he's older? Yaozu is a sensible child. Besides, settling this marriage now will solve your family's urgent needs, right?"
Tian Guilan still couldn't make up her mind and paced back and forth in the room.
Hongmei continued to persuade her, "Sister Guilan, don't miss this opportunity. Several families in the village are eyeing Sun Huahua. If you're late, someone else will get there first. Once Sun Huahua gets married and has a child, won't life get better and better?"
Tian Guilan stopped, looked at Hongmei, then at Yaozu, and her heart began to waver.
At this time, the sunlight outside the window gradually set in the west, and the light in the room became dim.
Tian Guilan slapped her thigh and said, "Then I'll trouble you, Hongmei!"
Hongmei's face immediately lit up with a smile as she replied, "It's no trouble, no trouble. I'm also happy to be able to facilitate this good thing."
Tian Guilan took Hongmei's hand and said, "Then it all depends on you, sister, to take care of it. If it works out, our two families will visit each other more often in the future."
Hongmei nodded repeatedly: "Don't worry, Sister Guilan, I will do my best to get it done."
At this moment, Yaozu also revealed a smug smile, secretly planning for the good days ahead. The atmosphere in the room instantly became much more relaxed, as if they had already seen a bright future.
Hongmei took Yaozu and hurried to Sun Huahua's house.
Hongmei thought to herself: If this marriage can be accomplished, I will have done a great service in front of Tian Guilan, and the matter of borrowing grain can probably be written off.
Besides, facilitating a marriage is also a good deed. I just don't know if Sun Huahua's family will agree, but with the temptation of the three brick houses, maybe it can be done.
Yaozu was also calculating: Sun Huahua might not be my type, but she'd be good enough to keep me working less and still have food to eat. If I could marry her, I'd be able to hold my head high in this family.
Along the way, the two of them had their own thoughts, but they never stopped for a moment, and they couldn't wait to get to Sun Huahua's house to finalize the marriage.
