I'm wearing it, but I'm still suffering.

Chapter 36 Big Brother's Fiancee

So that's how it is! She went back to her room so early last night because she wanted to check out the space. After all, she had wanted to check it out when she was in the mountains, but it wasn't convenient at the time. Did she miss the family meeting?

"I didn't know how much it could be sold for before, so we didn't divide it specifically. But they all said that Xiaoxiao would get the lion's share. So I decided to give her twenty taels of the sixty taels, and the remaining forty taels will be ten taels each for the four children." As he said this, he counted out twenty taels of the money he had just received and handed it to Zhu Yun.

Liu Kun, who was standing nearby, said, "I don't want this money, Grandpa. I wasn't there when you dug the bamboo ginseng, and I didn't contribute anything. How can I share it with my brothers and sisters?"

At this time, Liu Xiaoxiao said: "Brother, just take it! Grandpa must have his reasons for saying that, just take it."

Liu Yingcai looked at his granddaughter who grew up in the town since childhood, and liked her more and more. How did he know that there was a reason for him doing this?

"Yes, I did allocate it this way for a reason. Brother Kun, you're not young anymore and you've reached the age to get married. Our family didn't have much money before, and we didn't get married after we arranged a marriage for you because the betrothal gift wasn't enough. Now that we have it, your marriage can be put on the agenda."

It turns out that the family had already found a girl for the eldest brother before the New Year. The other party was the village beauty from the next village! I heard that the girl was not only beautiful, but also very hardworking. The matchmaker who came to their house before almost broke down the threshold of their house! Fortunately, my eldest brother is good-looking and honest. Others are willing to marry their daughters to their family. However, the prerequisite is that their family must pay a betrothal gift of six taels of silver. It is said that it means that everything will go smoothly after the daughter marries into their family.

In fact, it’s not that the family can’t afford it, but in addition to the betrothal gift, they will have to hold a wedding banquet, which is another expense. The second child in the family is not young anymore and is also getting engaged. Everything costs money, so they have not gotten married yet.

After listening to his grandfather's explanation, Liu Kun's eyes turned red. It turned out that his family had always been concerned about his marriage.

"Thank you, grandpa. I'll listen to you," Liu Kun said with a choked voice.

"Alright, you've been moved by just this little thing. This is mainly thanks to your sister Xiaoxiao. If it weren't for her, you wouldn't have found this bamboo ginseng even if you dug all the bamboo shoots. Why don't you thank your sister quickly?"

After hearing what his grandfather said, Liu Kun actually turned to Liu Xiaoxiao and said seriously: "Thank you, sister."

This made her feel embarrassed. She scratched her head and said with a smile: "Brother, it's actually nothing. We are all family and we have a long way to go in the future! Let's marry my sister-in-law home first."

Seeing her daughter's words and actions have become much more mature, Zhu Yun was moved. Could it be because of the head injury last time? Why did she feel that her daughter was like a different person? Sometimes she said things that only adults could say.

And this time, after she returned to her hometown, she actually took the initiative to stay. In the past, she always wanted to go back to town and always disliked the countryside for being dirty.

Before Zhu Yun could continue thinking, Liu Xiaoxiao grabbed her hand again and said, "Mom, when is dinner ready? I'm so hungry. I only ate one cake in the morning, and it was tasteless. I finally finished it, and now I'm starving."

Seeing Liu Xiaoxiao, who was begging for food, Zhu Yun felt that her previous thoughts were ridiculous. Wasn't this still the same Xiaobao who loved food and was so outspoken? What had she been thinking just now?

"You! It's good enough to have something to eat, and you're still complaining about it."
