Quick Wear: The Bad Girl is Reborn and No Longer Confused

Chapter 60 The little peasant girl who dedicated herself to the scumbag 14

"Girl, are you attracted to him?"

"Yes, he is fair-skinned and gentle, I like him." She only has some good impression of him at the moment, and she needs to find out more about the Cheng family's situation before making any decision.

The answer was clear and concise, without any girlish shyness. Wang Yue held her forehead, still liking bookish men as always.

Although Xu Tao lived in ancient times, she had memories of her past lives. If the man wasn't good enough, she could change him. If she liked him, she could fight for him. If she couldn't get along, she could break up or divorce him. After all, she had money.

The prerequisite is that the person has to have good character. If it were like the Cao family in ancient times, it would be fine, but breaking off an engagement would cause a lot of trouble.

What she didn't know was that Cao Xincheng and Widow Cao had been inquiring about the Xu family's situation and wanted to find her to take over.

Previously, the Xu brother and sister found a woman and asked her to pretend to be a rich girl for a few days. As long as they successfully broke off the engagement, they would give her twenty taels of silver as a reward.

Of course she is willing to do so, as she is not afraid of being at a disadvantage as she does that kind of work.

Cao Xincheng really thought that she had found a rich man, so she naturally tried every means to break off the engagement.

After being beaten that day, he wanted to gain the lady's sympathy, but when he arrived, he found out that the owner of the house was not the lady at all. He tried to make trouble but was beaten and thrown out.

Unwilling to give up, he went door to door asking, and a kind person told him that he had seen the girl in a narrow alley. He went to look for her but didn't see her, and was beaten up again.

He finally realized that he had been tricked, and thought that his classmates were jealous of his talent and deliberately framed him. He had no choice but to return to the village, where he found that people from the gambling house had come to his house to take over his house and land.

How could they be willing to do that? But they were powerless. The other party claimed that he had lost the mortgage in a gamble, and there was his fingerprint on it, so he couldn't deny it.

He had no house or land and wanted to find someone to take him in, but the villagers avoided his family and even asked for the eggs they had given him as gifts.

When Widow Cao went to find Li Gouzi, she was also kicked out. Li Gouzi was not willing to support the mother and son for nothing.

What future will Cao Xincheng have if he becomes addicted to gambling? Don’t let him end up begging on the streets.

The desperate mother and son thought of Xu Tao and wanted to stay at the Xu family. But when they went to look for her, they found that she had moved away and no one knew her exact location.

Xu Tao has been visiting various places with the children these days, and has almost figured out the situation around them, and most importantly, she has found out about the situation of the Cheng family.

Cheng An is the only one left in the Cheng family now. When he was a child, his parents went back to visit relatives, but they encountered a mudslide and never came back. Only the two elders of the Cheng family were left to raise their grandson.

Fortunately, the Cheng family had many houses and shops, so the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren did not have to worry about making a living. A few years ago, the two elders passed away one after another, leaving only Cheng An.

He observed mourning for his grandparents for six years after they passed away, and only ended it last year. He is now twenty-one.

The girl he was previously engaged to couldn't wait to get married, and he himself had no plans to get married. He was currently studying at the Nancheng Academy, and would take the examination for the title of Scholar at the end of August.

"What? Cheng An is your classmate. Is he the one who lives near our house? Cousin, can you tell me about him?"

Xu Tao moved her stool and moved closer. She had just heard her cousin and uncle mention Cheng An. It couldn't be such a coincidence.

Wang Wen was stunned for a moment, not knowing why his cousin was so excited.

"What are you thinking about? Didn't you hear your sister asking you a question? Answer it quickly."

Wang Wen glanced at his father with resentment. He was really cruel.

Humph, if his cousin wasn't here, he wouldn't give his father any face.

"I don't know Cheng An's address, but he has a small black mole in the middle of his nose."

"Yes, it's him!"

"We don't usually interact with each other. He likes to read alone. The teacher said he is very talented in writing. If it weren't for the trivial matters at home, he would have passed the imperial examination and become a scholar years ago.

"I really don't know what kind of person he is. Taozi, why are you asking him? Is he interested in her? I'll go and find out for you later."

"No, I know it myself. Cousin, you misunderstood me. I want to know his preferences."

"Hahaha, it turns out my granddaughter has the same demeanor as I did back then."

The old lady likes her granddaughter's straightforward temper and lets her do what she wants.

Back then, she had fallen for the old man and told her mother she wanted to marry him. It was easy for a woman to pursue a man, and in the end, the old man still fell for her.

Hobbies? Wang Wen stroked his chin in thought. His hobby was probably reading. Meeting his cousin's bright eyes, he racked his brains and continued to think, his eyes lighting up.

"He loves to eat and eats every day."

Everyone... Isn't this nonsense? We all have to eat every day, and we can't become immortals.

His father's palm, like a large palm fan, was about to fall again. Wang Wen quickly made up for it, "He eats with great relish. I once saw someone give him a piece of cake and he enjoyed it very much. He must like sweets."

Xu Tao nodded to show that she understood. She really didn't know how to make sweets, but she could learn later. Now it was more important for her to think about what she would do for a living.

They were asked to split the middle of the four shops into six. The largest one on the left was used as a furniture shop for the third brother, and the slightly smaller one on the right was used as a blacksmith shop for the second brother.

The four shops in the middle are of similar size. The third one on the left is the grocery store owned by Xu’s parents, and the fourth one is the fruit drink store owned by the eldest brother.

The fifth family originally planned to let the fourth brother open a butcher shop, but after everyone discussed it, they felt it was not appropriate, after all, Uncle Wang’s butcher stall was not far away.

It just so happened that Xu Tao had made some roujiamo (Chinese bacon) that everyone liked, so she could sell it. Not wanting to work from dawn to dusk, she decided to wait for her fourth brother to come back and ask him what he thought.

Taozi was lost in thought, so everyone kept quiet and didn't disturb her.

Xu Tao stayed at her uncle's house to rest at night. She didn't know the exact date when the incident happened, so she could only wait here. There was nothing for her to do at home now.

The next day, the old man went to the backyard to pick vegetables as usual. When he passed the west wing, he tripped over something and was about to fall. Xu Tao rushed over and stepped under him.

"Taozi, Taozi, grandma will ask a doctor to see you."

"Grandma, I'm fine. Please don't go. Grandpa, are you okay?"

The old lady was in a panic and didn't dare let her go alone, for fear that her grandfather would be fine but the old lady would fall.

"I'm fine. I'm old and my eyesight isn't very good. Taozi, don't get up yet. Wait for the doctor to take a look."

Xu Taoli stood up, turned around and let the old man touch her. When she was really fine, the old lady patted the old man with red eyes, obviously she was very scared.

The old man knew he was in the wrong, so after comforting his wife, he insisted on taking the patient to see a doctor.

Xu Tao had no choice but to go along, and the old man was relieved after receiving a diagnosis that he was fine. However, his back was hunched, and he no longer had the energy he once had.

"Grandpa, what are you doing? I still fall down accidentally.

Last time, my eldest brother walked by a puddle and insisted on stepping into it. He slipped and fell in, his face covered in mud. You don't know that he looked around like a thief, thinking no one was covering his face before rushing into the house. I saw it all from behind. And my second brother before..."
