After crossing over: kidnapping a female hunter to be the stepfather of the three cubs

Chapter 135 The original owner's admirer whom he had never met

There is a small stream winding through the middle of the farmhouse. A bridge is built over it. Someone is hired to dig a pond and plant some lotus flowers in it. Within two years, you will be able to see such a beautiful scene: "A small boat is played in the windy pond, and lotus clusters are swaying. The leaves and distant mountains are green, and the flowers are about to fall and shine red."

The days passed by in a rush, and when I finally had some free time, it was Mid-Autumn Festival, and the weather was gradually not so hot anymore.

The workers were paid their wages and given two days off on the first two days of the Mid-Autumn Festival.

After being busy for more than a month, both Zhao Huanxi and Xu Qingzhao lost a lot of weight.

The servants in the house also gradually got used to the life in the Zhao family. Seeing Zhao Huanxi, who was also a woman but younger than them, busy with her livelihood every day, these people admired Zhao Huanxi from the bottom of their hearts.

The autumn harvest season is coming soon, and the crops in the acres of land that Zhao Huanxi bought are ripe. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, he will hire a few people to harvest the rice.

I don’t know what the autumn tax rate is this year. The number of refugees in the city has been decreasing during the past few visits. I don’t know what method the county magistrate used to get these people to return home.

Let’s not talk about what’s happening outside for now, and let’s talk about what’s happening at home. The children’s classes have been suspended for a few days, and they are having fun playing with Xu Jinchu, Baoer and Xiaodan.

Today's family banquet was given to Chunliu and others, while Huanxi invited Old Master Lu and his family to come over for a reunion dinner.

Xu Qingzhao used to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival at the village chief's house. This year, since he had Huanxi, he greeted the village chief and his wife and decided to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival with Huanxi.

The village head and his wife also knew that Xu Qingzhao and Huanxi had a good relationship, so they let her go.

Mrs. Tian came over and wanted to prepare dinner, but she was unexpectedly politely invited out by Chunliu: "Old lady, you go and rest, the four of us are busy."

The old lady was so anxious that she just stared blankly. It took a lot of persuasion from Huanxi and Liu before she finally sat down and had a cup of tea.

Liu and Lu Lin were still working as supervisors with high salaries. When the villagers heard that there was work to be done, they were eager to sign up. It was the village chief who took the initiative and selected a dozen strong men to open up the wasteland and build the courtyard wall.

They all knew that this supervisor was actually dispensable, and it was the younger sister who gave them this idle position so that they would have work to do and money to earn.

The family was talking happily when there was a loud knock on the door.

Huanxi went out to open the door and saw that it was Luo, whom she had not seen for a long time. Behind her was a fat man and a matchmaker dressed in fancy clothes.

"Oh, this must be Zhao Huanxi, you little girl. You are such a beautiful girl. Your mother is introducing a good marriage to you. I know your first marriage was not good, but I tell you, this time it will be different..." After saying that, she turned her eyes towards the fat man.

Zhao Huanxi looked at Luo coldly and said, "Luo Yunxiu, what are you doing?"

Mrs. Luo spoke with a guilty conscience, "This is my nephew Luo Manzi from my mother's family. When you were little, you used to chase him for candy. Now he makes a living as a pig butcher in town, earning over ten taels of silver a year. You need someone who understands you, right? I think he'll be the one. You're familiar with him."

After listening to Luo's words, she looked at the fat man. She searched in the original owner's memory and finally found that memory.

It turned out that when Luo Shi was little, she returned to her mother's home and brought her and her brother with her. Her grandmother didn't give her any food, and Luo Shi didn't dare to say a word. Then, a neighbor's brother secretly gave her some candies. Luo Shi snatched them away and gave them to Zhao Fengnian, who then told her to ask the neighbor's brother for more.

The neighbor boy who gave her candy must be the fat Luo Man now.

That was one of the few memories of going back to my grandparents' house. I only remember that this brother would stand up to protect the original owner every time she was bullied at my grandmother's house. I never saw him again after I grew up.

She looked at the fat man in front of her. His arms were shaking slightly because of nervousness, and he didn't dare to look into her eyes.

Noticing Huanxi's gaze, Luo Man raised his head nervously and spoke haltingly, "Huan... Huanxi sister..."

Luo Man looked at the woman who was completely different from the one in his memory. She had grown taller, become whiter, and seemed to have become more imposing.

Seeing Huanxi's new home, he was sincerely happy for his sister. When Huanxi was seventeen, he wanted to go and propose marriage, but his mother stopped him from going, saying that the Zhao father and son did not get along well, and that his aunt was seriously ill, so marrying her would be a burden. She said that she would not marry a bastard like Lu Feng and be bullied.

He hadn't married in all these years and still harbored unfounded expectations of Huanxi. Until recently, when he heard that she had divorced and started a new life, he went to Shili Village to visit Aunt Luo.

The matchmaker felt that the atmosphere was not right. Why was the girl calling her mother by her full name? This was too ignorant of etiquette... But she still tried to persuade her kindly: "Girl, this Luo boy is a good young man. Not only does he have more than ten acres of fertile land at home, but his pig-killing skills are also among the best in Gaoma Town. He can earn a lot of money every year. If you marry him, you will be blessed beyond your imagination~"

Huanxi raised her eyebrows and said to the matchmaker, "Do you want this blessing?"

The matchmaker was not angry at being criticized. She covered her sausage-like red mouth with a handkerchief and said with a smile: "I am old and ugly. This blessing should belong to you young girls~"

At this time, the people in the reception room also heard the commotion outside and came out to check. When Old Master Lu saw that it was Luo, he and Old Lady Tian fell silent. After all, she was Huanxi's biological mother. Even if there was anything wrong, it was not their turn to interfere, even if they broke bones and tendons.

So they looked at each other and quietly retreated.

Xu Qingzhao wasn't so easy-going. She hadn't even gotten over Huanxi yet, so where did this fat guy come from? And the way he looked at Huanxi was clearly genuine.

Huanxi narrowed her eyes, her teeth grinding, and she finally couldn't help but curse:

"Luo Yunxiu, you must have eaten too much food every day. You can't stand me having a good life, right? I'm rich and pretty now, how could I be interested in that fat guy? I'm telling you, I've already found a husband!" She raised her hand and pointed at Xu Qingzhao:

"Yes, he is! Compare yourself, is this a class distinction? Forget about you being a butcher. Even if you're a butcher of cattle, horses, or people, I wouldn't care. Do you understand?"

When these words came out, everyone present was shocked...

Xu Qingzhao couldn't help but curl up his lips: Huanhuan said she wanted to take me as her son-in-law...

The others were offended by Huanxi's words. Huanxi was usually very kind, but when she suddenly said something so harsh, everyone was still not able to react.

Huanxi was doing this on purpose. Luo Man seemed to have feelings for the original owner, but she was not the original owner, so it was better to let this man give up the idea. She used this method: dishonorable, but effective.

Just as Huanxi had expected, Luo Man was deeply hurt by her words. But then he looked at Xu Qingzhao again. He realized that he could never compare to him in height, appearance, or temperament.

He was content as long as Sister Huanxi was doing well. This man had spent the Mid-Autumn Festival at Huanxi's house, so he thought what Sister Huanxi said was true. He sighed deeply and wanted to pull the matchmaker away. He was being rude. After listening to Aunt Luo's words, he felt as if Huanxi was waiting for him to marry her. He should have asked around before coming.

But Luo Shi refused to accept it. Whose daughter is looking for a husband and she, the mother, doesn't know?
