Transmigrated Little Farm Girl Bringing Great Fortune

"Gagaga~~~"

"Knock knock knock~~~"

I knocked on the door, but there was no answer.

Lu Qingyao pushed open the door and entered.

Then I saw a bamboo cage in the courtyard, and inside the cage were a pair of live geese.

When Jiang Zifeng and his brother saw the live, flightless geese, they happily went up to tease them.

The little baby wanted to go too, but was stopped by the chirping sound in his ear...

There's a wicked woman in the house... Jiang Qiao'er is crying, and her aunt is crying too...

Jiang Miaomiao then pointed into the room and made some sounds.

Mother, Mother... go inside...

Lu Qingyao and Xiuxiu stood by the wild goose, hesitating whether or not to go inside.

Having been through it all, they naturally understand the meaning behind it.

The Book of Rites, in the section on the Marriage Ceremony of a Scholar, states: "The betrothal ceremony refers to the ceremony of selecting a bride; therefore, in the marriage ceremony, the bride is chosen from among geese."

In ancient times, wedding customs included three letters and six rites.

Letter of appointment, letter of gift, and letter of welcome.

Betrothal, asking the name, accepting auspicious gifts, presenting betrothal gifts, setting the date, and welcoming the bride.

Bringing a live goose to propose marriage is a custom known as betrothal, signifying acceptance of the chosen partner.

The man would send a matchmaker to the woman's house to propose marriage, and only after the woman agreed would he present a live goose as a gift to propose to her.

Families with better means would use live geese as gifts, while ordinary families would use live chickens or geese.

Which family has Qiao'er been betrothed to?

Could it be that my elder brother and sister-in-law have already agreed to Qiao'er's marriage?

But it's only been two days, and I haven't heard my sister-in-law mention it before.

Something's fishy about this...

"Qiao'er... Sister-in-law..." Lu Qingyao raised her voice and called out twice.

"Eeya ya ya~~~" Jiang Miaomiao also shouted at the top of her lungs.

Two tearful people ran out of the side room.

“Aunt…”

Jiang Qiao'er ran out and hugged Lu Qingyao tightly. The little girl's tearful appearance was very endearing.

Seeing this, Jiang Zifeng and his brother also came over and stood quietly to the side.

I wonder if all the ancestors of the Jiang family were good-looking.

The Jiang family's children are all good-looking.

Jiang Yunze stood out particularly.

The daughters of the Jiang family were equally outstanding, which is why Jiang Qiao'er was constantly being coveted.

It seems another fool has arrived.

But what's wrong with the sister-in-law?

She, who is usually quite feisty, was now standing aside, wiping away tears with a pitiful expression.

Is she being pressured into marriage again?

"Sister-in-law, what's wrong with you?" Lu Qingyao patted Jiang Qiao'er's head.

The little baby also touched his sister's hair.

It's so slippery!

It seems that Auntie treats Qiao'er like a precious treasure.

She noticed that many girls in the village had dry, split, and frizzy hair.

Their parents couldn't bear to use even a tiny bit of hair oil on them.

Another reason is malnutrition.

Many families in the village believe that daughters are a financial burden and therefore do not raise them with care.

Just like Qiao'er's plastic best friend, Chen Zhaodi.

It was used by my parents to exchange for money.

Even after becoming a concubine, her hair was still not as smooth as Qiao'er's.

If you didn't raise your child well when they were young, you can't make up for it no matter how you try to raise them when they're older.

Liu Yuniang wiped away her tears and tried to pull Lu Qingyao into the side room to talk privately, but was stopped by a voice coming from the hall.

"Sister-in-law, have your family members come to visit?"

Before Liu Yuniang could reply, the woman said again, "You've come at the right time. Let's discuss Qiao'er and Mingyuan's marriage together."

Lu Qingyao looked up and saw a woman in a brightly colored floral jacket leaning against the threshold, eating melon seeds, her face covered with thick makeup.

Is this Jiang Qiao'er's future husband's family?

Lu Qingyao didn't have a good impression of this woman.

With red eyes, Liu Yuniang looked at the woman and said, "Elder sister, Qingyao isn't a member of my family. She's Jiang Yunze's wife..."

He then looked at Lu Qingyao and said, "Sister-in-law, I suppose you haven't met yet. She is the eldest sister."

Eldest sister? Aunt?

Lu Qingyao had almost forgotten that the Jiang family had such a person.

Jiang Yunhu's older sister, Jiang Yunyan, was six years older than him and married early.

Lu Qingyao curtsied and greeted, "Greetings, Eldest Sister!"

"Greetings, Aunt!" Jiang Zifeng and Jiang Ziyan also bowed in greeting.

"Okay, okay, everything's fine!" Jiang Yunyan's face was full of smiles.

Jiang Miaomiao, on the other hand, was sucking her fingers, looking completely uninterested.

One good thing about babies is that they don't need to bow or greet elders, and they can simply ignore people they don't like.

that's nice!

I experienced the benefits of being a baby for the first time.

Jiang Yunyan swayed her thick waist as she slowly walked down, looking the group up and down.

As expected of Jiang Lao Er's offspring, they are all born with handsome appearances.

Especially that little one, it was born looking like a snowman, like a doll in a painting.

However, Jiang Lao Er's wife was far inferior to him.

Lu Qingyao also looked her over.

She was startled when she was told that she was Jiang Yunhu's older sister.

The siblings don't resemble each other at all; now it seems that Jiang Yunyan's features are more like those of Grandma Jiang.

She's just average-looking!

"Sister-in-law, please come in! I have a lot to tell you."

Jiang Yunyan tried to take Lu Qingyao's arm, but Xiuxiu blocked her, which annoyed her.

Pointing at Xiuxiu, he said, "Who is she? Your maid? How can she be so clueless?"

Even Lu Qingyao bowed just now, but this brat just stood there, not moving an inch!

Lu Qingyao frowned slightly upon hearing this. "Eldest sister, she is Xiuxiu, not my maid, but my sworn sister."

Xiuxiu was deeply moved when she heard this.

She has family now, family who treat her like a younger sister.

Jiang Yunyan clicked her tongue. Even in this situation, they still keep an idle person around!

She had also heard about what happened to Jiang Lao Er's family, and originally she looked down on this abandoned woman.

But then I heard that she made a lot of money with the villagers.

Even her family made a fortune.

When I got back, I saw the family eating a big meal of fish and meat, and the house had been renovated.

They also raised cattle, sheep, and quite a few chickens...

She was so excited!

They immediately went all out, getting a pair of live geese and sending a matchmaker to their door...

Lu Qingyao led the children into the hall.

Jiang Yunhu was already waiting at the door. "Sister-in-law, you're here. Please come in and have a seat!"

Lu Qingyao nodded slightly and went inside. She saw several people sitting in the room, showing no intention of getting up.

An elderly man and his son were eating sunflower seeds inside the house.

The old man had shifty eyes and looked like he owned the place; he put on airs the whole time.

The youngest was about fifteen or sixteen years old, bloated and fatter than Jiang Zifeng.

Jiang Miaomiao used to think her older brother was fat, but after seeing this fat man, she was surprised to realize that her older brother was not fat at all, just strong.

The person in front of her reminded her of Peppa Pig...

He kept yawning, as if he hadn't slept for days.

There was also an old woman with a large flower in her hair and wearing makeup, who hadn't originally planned to get up.

Upon seeing Jiang Zifeng and Jiang Ziyan, they immediately came over.

They act as matchmakers for insurance companies and have a keen eye for people.

They could categorize the men and women they had seen into different ranks at a glance.

Regardless of their wealth, these two individuals are of exceptional character and appearance, judging from their speech and demeanor.

She's not old enough yet, she needs to rest and recuperate a bit more.

If I marry into a wealthy and powerful family, it'll definitely work out!
