A Happy Event in a Farming Family: Marrying a Hunter

Chapter 83 Buying Eggs from Fatty's House

We'll wait then, who's afraid of who?

The arrival of the two did not affect Yunluo's mood at all; she was still thinking about what to have for breakfast.

Yunlu remembered that she had some flour at home, so she decided to make a noodle soup. It would have vegetables and soup, save time, and taste good too.

After she finished cooking, she called the two children out for dinner. Xiao Ran stood at the door, wearing a long coat that covered his bottom. His face was a little red, and there was a hint of apprehension in his eyes. "Mom, we wet the bed."

Yunluo was taken aback, then smiled and picked up Xiaoran and carried her into the room. Xiaoyu was standing on the bed with red eyes, clearly having cried.

"It's okay, you won't wet the bed when you grow up. Be good and wait, Mom will give you a bath and then we'll go eat."

Yun Luo quickly gathered up the bedding and went out, bringing in warm water. She first helped Xiao Yu wash and change her clothes, then helped Xiao Ran.

"Mom, I can wash myself!" Xiao Ran blushed even more and covered her little brother.

"Alright, Mother will find you some clothes." Yunluo got up and secretly glanced at him. He looked normal and had no defects. She was very relieved.

It's important to know that some diseases were incurable in ancient times.

After tidying up, Yunlu moved the table outside, and the three of them ate breakfast in the courtyard.

Xiaoyu magically pulled an egg from her bosom and handed it to Yunluo, saying, "Mother, Brother Hu gave it to me. My brother and I ate one, so this is for you, Mother."

"Good girl." Yun Luo took it, peeled the egg, and divided it into three pieces. She hadn't eaten eggs in a long time, and the smell alone made her mouth water, not to mention the flavorful preserved egg.

and many more!

Preserved egg.

Yunluo's eyes lit up. She could totally make preserved eggs and sell them!

She quickly shoveled down her food and ran outside, shouting, "Xiao Ran, take good care of your sister and the house, and wait for Mom to come back."

The village head's family raised a lot of chickens and had a lot of eggs. She decided to go and ask them. She knocked on the door and went in. The village head's courtyard was bustling with activity. A group of people were gathered around a large table, with Fatty sitting in the middle.

Today, Fatty wore a pink floral dress, which seemed a bit small, making her look like a Michelin tire with rolls of fat showing through it.

The table was laden with various fruit platters, peanuts, and a variety of side dishes, a very generous spread, which was the customary etiquette for matchmaking between men and women in the village.

She came at the wrong time.

They were chatting in the courtyard and didn't notice her. Yunluo planned to quietly slip away, but suddenly the chubby girl raised her hand, waved at her, and looked at her excitedly.

Now, everyone's eyes were on her.

Yun Luo smiled faintly and greeted them one by one.

"Yunluo is here. Fatty's father is looking for a marriage partner for her. Auntie will show you around and let you sit down."

"Okay." Yun Luo replied softly and followed the plump maid.

The two sides negotiated until the very end. Yun Luo was not far away and could hear clearly that the other party simply disliked Fatty's figure and left with their belongings.

Limmian was so upset by the blow that he threw down his chopsticks and lost his appetite.

"It's nothing, our chubby girl just hasn't had her good fortune yet!" Chubby girl's grandma was quite cheerful, which made Chubby girl nod repeatedly.

The village head remained silent, took the chopsticks from the fat girl's mother, picked up the bowl again, and the atmosphere eased a little.

"Yunluo, what brings you here? Have you eaten? Come and have some with us!"

"Grandma Zhang, Uncle Zhang, Aunt Zhang." Yun Luo greeted them with a smile. Grandma Zhang and Fatty's mother were both very kind, but the village head was busy eating and didn't say a word.

Yunlu thought he was in a bad mood and didn't think too much about it.

Fatty didn't care about her father's attitude and kept asking Yunluo questions. On the contrary, Fatty's mother noticed that she had something to say and laughed, "Come and eat your food. You've silenced Yunluo."

"I got so excited that I forgot. Yunluo, go ahead and say it."

Yunlu scratched her head, "Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang, I'd like to buy some eggs from you..."

"Fatty ate all the eggs, there weren't any left." The village head was already in a bad mood, but when he saw Yun Luo, some almost forgotten memories flooded his mind, and he refused to eat them.

The chubby girl, being quick-witted, blurted out, "Dad, there's a whole basket full in the main room! Those people were being rude, what does that have to do with Guan Yunluo? Why are you throwing a tantrum!"

After she finished speaking, the village head glared at her, looking rather disappointed, "Your father has almost lost all face, and you don't seem to care!"

“Others may look down on me, but I think that family’s son is as skinny as a stick, with hardly any flesh on his body. If Dad dislikes me, he can just kick me out!”

“You…” The village head was speechless. He wanted to scold him, but he couldn’t bring himself to do it. He just sulked.

Yunluo was envious of how loving the father and daughter's arguments were.

"Yunluo, your uncle is in a bad mood, don't take it to heart. If you want a few, your aunt will go get them for you!" Fat Girl's mother said kindly.

"Fifty!"

Yunluo asked for a lot of eggs, which surprised Fatty's mother. "Why do you want so many eggs?"

Yunluo couldn't say that she made the preserved eggs herself, so she could only say that she was useful. Fatty's mother was smart and didn't ask any more questions. She busied herself preparing them for her. The two girls chatted and laughed in the yard. Fatty was still thinking about going to Yunluo's house later to tease the two children.

"Fatty, come inside!"

Fatty kept arguing with her father, "Dad, what's wrong with you? How can I go inside when Yun Luo comes? So, if the village chief comes one day, just ignore him and go straight back inside!"

The village head's face grew increasingly sour, and in the end, he didn't even finish his meal. He threw down his chopsticks and went straight into the house.

Fatty was oblivious and didn't notice, but Yunluo sensed it.

The village headman didn't have a problem with the marriage itself, but rather with her.

But it didn't seem like they disliked her being called a jinx; rather, it seemed like a strong sense of hostility.

Yunluo was confused!

"Xiao Luo, fifty eggs!"

Yunluo took the basket, gave her the silver, thanked her, and didn't stay long before saying she had something to do at home and leaving.

Fatty wanted to go out with them, but her mother stopped her.

"Mom, why does Dad look so grumpy? Yunluo is my only friend in the village, I don't want him to ruin him too!"

Fat Girl's mother glanced in the direction of the main room, hesitated, and said, "Children shouldn't meddle in adult matters. I don't object to you and Xiao Luo being close, just don't let your father see it in front of you!"

"Who cares about his business? He always has that long face. Fine, I'll go cut pig feed!"

After her daughter left, Fatty's mother came into the room, sat on the edge of the bed, sighed, and said earnestly, "Fatty's father, so much time has passed, and the two elders of the Yun family are gone. Why are you taking your anger out on a child?"

"I didn't, I just didn't want to see his daughter!" the village head said coldly, his eyes reflecting the vicissitudes of the past decades.

Fat Girl's mother laughed, grabbed his hand and placed it in her palm, "According to you, Yunluo is still Zhou Rong's daughter, shouldn't you treat her better for her sake?"

The village head turned his head, stared for a while, and then laughed in anger, "It's all in the past, let's not talk about it anymore. The important thing is to get Fatty married off as soon as possible."
