Quick Wear: To get home quickly, do the task

It’s not that I dislike Xiao Minmin, but my daughter is grown up now and it’s not easy to fool her.

It’s now inconvenient to sneak out in the middle of the night to do something.

Especially when she occasionally came back and was met by Minmin, Yuan Feng felt bad for her because of the look on her face that seemed to want to say something but hesitate, and want to ask something but didn't dare to!

However, this move went smoothly. When Zhang went to see the village chief, someone was moving to the county and was planning to sell their house.

So it only took a few days to complete the transfer and move.

As for the old house where they had lived for several years, since it couldn't be sold anyway, Yuan Feng simply gave it to Lin Xiuwu.

Before moving out, Lin Xiuwu looked abandoned.

Come to think of it, I never realized your brother-in-law was such a person before? We're all from the same village, and no one's trying to stop you from meeting your mother, so what's the big deal?

Yuan Feng was drying his quilt in the yard while thinking about all sorts of things.

"Xiao Feng, are you home alone? Where are your mother-in-law and Xiao Min?"

It turned out to be my sister-in-law from my mother's family. What a rare guest.

Yuan Feng had never liked them and had rarely interacted with them over the years. Although they lived in the same village, Yuan Feng only went back during festivals.

Naturally, her family could see it too. However, she had relied on Yuan Feng to survive the entire famine, so her parents couldn't act like they were elders.

But he didn't want to be treated coldly, so he seldom came to visit the Lin family.

"Well, everyone is out. Is there anything, sister-in-law?" Yuan Feng went straight to the point.

Yuan Feng's sister-in-law handed him a basket of eggs and said, "You've moved, so I'm here to warm your house."

We are all farmers, and this is not a new house, so there is really no need for a greenhouse.

And when did the two families become so close that they even brought eggs to warm the house? Something must be wrong when things are out of the ordinary!

But since one shouldn't hit someone who smiles at him, and since he wasn't busy today, Yuan Feng let her into the house. She wanted to see what tricks her sister-in-law was up to.

After chatting about this and that for a while, my sister-in-law started to lead the topic in some inexplicable directions.

"His aunt, you said that life for us women is really not easy! Before getting married, we have to take care of our younger brothers and sisters at home, and after getting married, we have to take care of our parents-in-law, husband and children. Don't you agree?"

"Sister-in-law, I only have one brother and no younger brothers or sisters, so I don't need to take care of him before I get married. After I get married, I don't have a father-in-law, only a mother-in-law. My mother-in-law is very capable. Not only does she not need my care, she can also help me take care of Minmin. And my husband is gone, so I don't need to take care of him either."

"..."

It seems so. Now that my sister-in-law said that, it seems like I’m really lucky!

Is the life of a widow so comfortable?

No! I don’t know how to respond to my sister-in-law’s chat.

Thinking about the money in my pocket, I can only accept it if I can't...

"You're right, but Minmin is getting older every year and is about to get married. Who will take care of you in your old age? So you should plan for yourself as soon as possible.

Although I'm not a widow... no, my mother-in-law isn't as good as yours... no! "My sister-in-law wanted to slap herself twice. How could she have said what was in her heart...

I originally wanted to say that although my life is not as good as my sister-in-law's, my son will take care of me in my old age.

"......" Yuan Feng was shocked! How can you say that to my face? One is my brother, and the other is my mother! Is my sister-in-law so brave? I never realized it before...

"His aunt, that's not what I meant. I just slipped my tongue. What I meant was that you should find another family so that you can have someone to rely on when you get old."

Now there is an opportunity. Mr. Li from the county has taken a fancy to you and is willing to pay a hundred taels of silver as a betrothal gift."

The sister-in-law no longer guided the conversation, pretending to be concerned about her sister-in-law. Instead, she directly stated her purpose.

If she didn't say anything, the topic would probably go off track.

“…”So this is the purpose of my sister-in-law’s visit?

Why don't you just ask me directly and I'll answer? Why do you have to think about me and want to be a widow?

"I'm a good widow and I won't get married."

"His aunt, this Mr. Li is the richest man in our county. This is the best offer. If you marry him, you will have a luxurious life and servants around. Isn't it better than being a peasant every day now?"

Since you are the richest man, why don’t you think about why others fall for me, a widow?

Forget it, I can’t explain it to her. I guess she got some benefits and that’s why she’s pestering me here.

"Sister-in-law, there is no need to say more. I will stay with my husband for the rest of my life. You don't have to worry about it." Yuan Feng didn't want to waste words and refused directly.

Rather than engaging in verbal arguments, Yuan Feng would rather take direct action...but it doesn't seem appropriate to do so now!

"No, don't rush to push it. Go home and discuss it with your parents first. They agree with this, otherwise I wouldn't come here."

"Dad and Mom agree?"

It seems that Mr. Li has promised a lot of benefits!

Yuan Feng looked towards the door. "Mom, you're back. My sister-in-law came here to propose marriage to me. I refused for a long time, but she said my parents agreed too."

Zhang and Minmin, who had just walked in: ...

It seemed the daughter-in-law was impatient. However, since it involved the old couple of her in-laws, no matter how angry the daughter-in-law was, it was not easy for her to confront her parents directly.

If her elder brother was the one who instigated this, she would beat him up.

It’s not like I haven’t beaten him before.

But this matter can only be done by oneself...

"Her aunt, you are wrong. Xiao Feng is now a member of my Lin family. You want her to remarry just by opening your mouth. Do I agree?

Forget it, I can’t talk to you! Let’s go to your house and talk to your mother-in-law! "

"Aunt Lin, no, you heard it wrong, that's not what I meant!"

The eldest sister-in-law from her mother's family was in a panic. How could the younger sister-in-law directly complain? No matter what, this matter was the intention of the two elders of the Shen family. If you complain like this, how can your parents live?

Of course she knew that her family was being dishonest.

小姑子虽说是沈家姑娘，可嫁出去的女儿泼出去的水，现在小枫是林家的人。现在自己跑来让人家改嫁，这要是换成泼辣一点的人家，自己很可能要挨揍......

But judging by Aunt Lin's expression, this matter is bound to get out of hand. Although I won't get beaten, I won't get any good results either...

Zhang didn't listen to her explanation and directly ordered her eldest daughter-in-law, "You stay at home and don't go out. Mother will take Minmin with her."

"Mom, wait a minute." Yuan Feng leaned over to Zhang's ear and whispered, "They want to marry me off to a wealthy businessman in the county. I guess they're after the sweet potatoes."

It has been said more than once that Zhang is a wise woman. As soon as she heard this, she knew how to handle this matter...

Zhang took Lin Minmin to the village chief's house.
