After becoming the villain's eldest sister, I take charge of the whole family

Here.

Xie Linghe returned to the carriage.

"Master, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. Please take me to Xinghua Village."

"Ok."

The carriage was very fast.

Eleven o'clock.

She arrived outside Xinghua Village and asked the driver to stop further away. When she came out, she had changed back into her coarse cloth clothes.

See this.

The driver's expression remained unchanged and he didn't ask any more questions.

Xie Linghe was satisfied and politely said to the driver, "Master, I don't need the car anymore. I wish you a safe journey."

The driver nodded silently.

After watching the carriage slowly drive away, Xie Linghe walked home carrying a bundle.

Just got home.

A sharp laugh came from inside: "Hahaha, Mr. Scholar, stop joking. How could I not know that you are already engaged?"

"Scholar, the woman I'm arranging a marriage for you this time is the daughter of Landlord Fan from Shepherd Village. They said that if you agree, the bride can bring a hundred acres of land as a dowry. With this money, you don't have to worry about your livelihood anymore. You just need to study hard..."

Xie Linghe: “…”

Which one is this?

Is the scholar so fragrant?

People in the village, the next village, the town... I have explained it many times. Xie Boyuan is engaged, so why don't they believe it?

Talk about it.

There are also two reasons of their own.

This marriage was arranged by Old Master Liu. Xie Sanhe and his wife were the type who bullied the weak and feared the strong. The wealthy families in the Liu family didn't dare to come to their house, but they didn't want their son to be accused of being a gigolo, so they planned to wait until Xie Boyuan made a name for himself before making a move.

pity.

He never even waited for death.

The Liu family has never been ostentatious. Even when Xie Sanhe and his wife came to die, they came and left quietly.

Few people really knew that Xie Boyuan and Liu Rushuang were engaged.

and many more!

Thinking of this, Xie Linghe suddenly realized: "Xie Boyuan has been back for a few days, and everyone in town knows about it. It's impossible for the Liu family not to know about it. What would they think if they heard the news that Xie Boyuan was seeing someone?"

It’s all Xie Boyuan’s fault!

He doesn't care about his wife at all.

Scumbag!

Xie Linghe cursed a few times.

When I walked in, the room was bustling with activity. There were the four Xie Boyuan brothers, Xie Lingfen, Xie Lingai, and a middle-aged woman with a black mole on the corner of her mouth.

She laughed so hard that her body shook, and she looked as terrifying as the Black Mountain Demon.

Everyone had different expressions.

Xie Boyuan had a cold face and impatience in his eyes.

Xie Zhongji turned to his elder brother and glared at the matchmaker.

Xie Jijun was bored.

Xie Lingfen frowned in disapproval, and Xie Lingai's little brows were tightly furrowed.

It seems.

No one welcomes this matchmaker...

and many more!

Xie Linghe looked at Xie Shuze intently and found that his eyes were full of envy.

Xie Linghe: “…”

As expected of you.

She coughed twice: "Cough cough cough."

Everyone looked over with surprise: "Big sister."

"Sister, you're back."

"Miss!"

Xie Boyuan's eyes lit up, as if he had seen a life-saving straw.

Xie Linghe: This family will fall apart without me!

She looked at the matchmaker and asked directly: "Who are you?"

The matchmaker was stunned, then her mind raced as she forced out a warm smile: "You are the scholar's elder sister, right? My last name is Zhou, so you can call me Zhou Matchmaker. I have introduced a good girl to the scholar..."

It is said.

The scholar was very afraid of her elder sister.

Then as long as I can convince the scholar, won’t this matter be settled?

The Fan family promised her that they would give her a red envelope of five taels of silver after the task was completed.

Xie Linghe interrupted her: "Matchmaker Zhou, don't you know that my eldest brother is already engaged?"

"Have it?"

Matchmaker Zhou was stunned and said shamelessly: "I haven't heard of it. Besides, the engagement can be cancelled..."

Xie Linghe asked coldly, "My eldest brother's fiancée is as beautiful as a flower. You're talking about Landlord Fan's daughter, a plump girl weighing 180 kilograms. Do you think it's possible for my eldest brother to break off the engagement and marry Miss Fan?"

Done.

She glanced at Xie Shuze intentionally or unintentionally.

I saw.

His little face turned pale in an instant.

One hundred and eighty kilograms?

OMG!

It's not worth it for these one hundred acres of land, it's not worth it...

In this regard.

Xie Linghe laughed secretly: So that you know, living off others is not so delicious~

Matchmaker Zhou felt a little embarrassed.

Ignoring her, Xie Linghe glared at Xie Boyuan: "It's been a few days since you came back. Have you visited your father-in-law and mother-in-law?"

Xie Boyuan shook his head weakly: "Tomorrow, I will go tomorrow."

Xie Linghe nodded expressionlessly.

See this.

Matchmaker Zhou knew it was hopeless, so she walked out with a sullen face, muttering, "Beautiful as a fairy?! Pah! What a scholar, he's just lucky, not a poor boy, what's so great about him..."

Xie Zhongji was angry when he heard this: "Old woman, what are you talking about?"

Xie Jijun: "I didn't hear clearly, please say it again."

The two men were so aggressive that Matchmaker Zhou was so frightened that her face changed drastically and she left quickly.

……

lunch.

Xie Boyuan suddenly said, "Sister, the master wants to take me as his disciple."

Xie Linghe pretended to be surprised: "Really? That's great!"

Actually.

She already knew it.

Xie Zhongji and others were genuinely surprised.

Xie Lingfen suddenly thought of something: "What kind of gifts should I prepare to become your disciple?"

Xie Linghe suddenly realized: "Indeed."

Xie Boyuan casually said, "Teacher said, just prepare the six rituals and the accompanying ceremony."

Xie Lingfen was curious: "What is the Six Rites?"

Xie Shuze answered quickly: "I know, the six gifts are: celery, lotus seeds, red beans, red dates, longan, and dried lean meat strips.

Celery symbolizes diligence and love of learning, and excellence comes from hard work.

The heart of the lotus seed is bitter, which symbolizes painstaking education.

Red beans symbolize good luck.

Red dates symbolize early graduation from high school.

Longan symbolizes the perfection of merit.

The dried lean meat strips represent the students’ gratitude to their teachers.”

Xie Zhongji: “That’s right.”

Xie Lingfen suddenly realized: "So that's it." At the same time, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief. These things were not expensive and her family could afford them.

……

The next day.

After breakfast, Xie Boyuan set off for the Liu family.

Xie Linghe was carrying a wooden basin to wash clothes. On the shore, many people greeted her when they saw her.

"He Jie'er, are you here to wash clothes?"

"Come over here, it's quite spacious."

"..."

He is very popular.

Xie Linghe also smiled: "Yeah."

"No, I'll wash here."

"..."

After a few pleasantries, everyone went back to work.

Xie Linghe picked up a piece of clothing and waded through the water. Suddenly realizing something, he asked, "Xiao Xi, has Xie Boyuan arrived at the Liu residence?"

System: "Reply to host, no."

Xie Linghe: "Please keep an eye on him. If he goes straight to the Liu residence without buying a gift or anything, tell me immediately."

System: "Yes."

After ending the conversation with the system, Xie Linghe felt confused. Based on her understanding of Xie Boyuan, this man would most likely not buy gifts.

I really don’t know whether to say that I am stingy or that I don’t understand the ways of the world.

really.

It was fulfilled.

System: "Host, Xie Boyuan is coming to Liu's residence."

Take a deep breath.

Xie Linghe connected the sub-system.

She said, "Host, a friendly reminder: visiting unarmed is extremely uncultured."
