My sister became the empress, but I'm still growing vegetables and raising chickens

"Hey, girl, why are you talking like that?"

The matchmaker was very unhappy. She had originally thought that a little girl from a poor village, even if she opened a shop in the county town, would never have seen the world. The fact that the rich man from Lingnan City was willing to marry her was a blessing she had burned for several lifetimes.

I didn't expect to see Si Muyan, who had a clear look on her face and was neat and tidy. She looked smart and not easy to fool.

Her eyes rolled, and her face was full of smiles again: "Yan girl, that's not what I said. If I had a youthful appearance like you and was favored by Boss Qian, wouldn't I marry him right away? It's not that I don't want this great blessing, but I can't afford it."

"Why not? Mr. Qian is about fifty, and I think this lady is over forty, right? They're just the right age, a perfect match!"

Si Xingzhi's eyes widened when he heard this. What? Boss Qian was fifty years old, and he actually dared to covet his sixteen-year-old daughter? He was dreaming! He was dreaming!

He turned around and ran into the house to find a bench, and when he came out he was about to hit the matchmaker on the head.

The matchmaker was not happy and kept yelling, "Why am I over 40? I'm only 38... Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing? What are you doing?"

Seeing Si Xingzhi picking up the bench and coming over, the matchmaker was so scared that she stepped back and started shouting loudly.

The neighbors were already used to it; something happened every now and then at the Si family, so when the matchmaker came, they prepared some melon seeds and snacks early and gathered at the door to watch the fun.

Now they saw Mr. Si, who was always respectable, running out without caring about his image and not even caring about his clothes being untied, they all laughed out loud.

"Oh my, I knew it. Master Si cherishes his daughters the most. How could he marry them off so easily?"

"That's right, and he's marrying an older girl. Tsk tsk tsk, this matchmaker didn't even ask around. The older girl is the treasure of the Si family, and also the treasure of our Songji Village!"

The matchmaker was furious. Even after running out, she was still unwilling to give up and shouted at the gate of the Si family: "If you miss this opportunity, you will never get it again. Boss Qian's family is rich, very rich. Not to mention a concubine, he would take in eight or ten girls aged fifteen. If he likes your girl, then it is a blessing for your family."

Si Xingzhi was already furious. How could he not be furious when an old man, older than himself, wanted to marry his daughter? Now he heard that it was not a marriage, but a concubine.

The nameless anger in his heart rushed straight to the top of his head. He no longer looked gentle and cowardly as usual, and ran after him.

"I won't break your legs today..."

Zhu Lao Er and Zhu Lao San, who happened to be back to visit their sister, heard about the commotion at the Si family and rushed over to stop Si Xingzhi. Together with the villagers, they drove the matchmaker away.

Si Xingzhi was still angry and almost fainted from anger.

Zhu Lao Er asked, "What happened? Why did Master Si get so angry?"

The people at the door talked at once, telling what had happened.

Without saying a word, Zhu Laoer pushed Si Xingzhi towards his third brother and turned to leave.

Zhu Laosan shouted, "Second brother, where are you going?"

Zhu Lao Er rolled up his sleeves and said, "I'm going to kill that bitch. Yan is our sister. How dare she ask my sister to be my concubine? I'm going to kill her!"

Si Muyan was helpless and kept shouting, "Brother Zhu, don't worry. The matchmaker is just a messenger. If we hurt her, we won't get any good results. Why bother?"

After hearing her words, Zhu Laoer regained his senses a little. After thinking about it carefully, he felt that this was the truth. He came back angrily and dragged Si Xingzhi back to the Si family.

When my second and youngest sisters came back in the evening and heard the news, they were furious.

"What? Boss Qian? Is that the old man who was so proud of himself when talking to my elder sister last time? My god, he has such a big face, how dare he think that!"

Zhu Laoer was indignant: "Who said it wasn't true? Boss Qian is not a good person."

Lai Qian scratched his head and said, "But, we went to Lingnan City to inquire. The Qian family is a big merchant family. I heard they have some connections with the government. If we reject him, will it be..."

Lai Qianniang rolled her eyes and said, "What do you mean? Are you asking your sister Yan to become that old man's concubine?"

Lai Qian quickly waved his hands: "Why would I say that? How could Sister Yan become someone's concubine? I mean, Boss Qian didn't really want to marry Sister Yan, he just wanted to disgust her. But we definitely can't resist the power of the Qian family, so we still have to find a way."

Zhu Lao Er said, "No matter how strong he is, he can't forcefully take our daughter, right? If he uses force, we'll report him to the police! Just because he's rich, he thinks he's great. Just because he's rich, he can do that... what's the saying? Do whatever he wants! Yes, do whatever he wants."

The others were silent for a long time before He Song said, "We make money just in case. After all, they say money makes the world go round."

Everyone's mood was not very good.

For several days in a row, different matchmakers came, all with the same message: Si Muyan should be Qian Laoshi's concubine. Finally, the entire Songji Village, seeing the matchmakers from outside, beat them up and drove them away without any reason, so that no one would be offended by Si Muyan.

The village head said, "We've made it so obvious, Boss Qian should know you're unhappy. If you make such a fuss, your reputation will be..."

Si Muyan smiled and said, "Reputation, what have I ever cared about?"

Indeed, none of the three daughters of the Si family had much of a reputation. Si Muyan was aggressive and aggressive, often showing off. Si Mutong had eloped early and was kicked out by her husband's family. Si Muwan's reputation had finally improved, but her previous failed marriage to the Xu family had become a public spectacle.

Therefore, at present, which good family is willing to let their sons meet these sisters?

Even if he did have intentions, it was after the Si family's money.

Although the matter seemed to have been settled on the surface, everyone in the Si family was still feeling heavy. Si Muyan was busy opening a new shop and didn't pay much attention to it.

She got up early that morning and went to the county town. She had made an appointment with someone to look at a shop today. She wanted to choose a good place as soon as possible and open the duck shop.

The duck and other products are all made in the workshop and can be delivered to the store in the morning for sale. There are other braised food shops on the market, and they are nothing new. What Si Muyan needs to do is to ensure quality and brand.

As soon as she arrived, the young man who was looking at the house nodded and said with a smile: "Boss Si, come with me. That place is indeed a good one."

The place was just over the other side of the morning market, and it took quite a while to walk there. Si Muyan had gotten up early, and was a little tired after walking such a long distance.

Seeing this, the young man said, "Let's go through the alley over there and we'll get there."

Si Muyan hesitated for a moment, thinking that the alley was not deep and would only take half an hour to walk, so he nodded and agreed.
