"That's right. Girl, you're quite good. It seems that the name 'Jin Se' is truly fortunate."
Old Lady Su laughed like a blossoming flower. It was fortunate that she didn't marry this girl off early, otherwise, her husband's family would have gotten away with it for nothing. She wanted to stay for a few more years.
"As long as dad and mom are happy!"
Su Jin Se had already seen the expressions of the old woman and the old man clearly, and was already used to it. They agreed to change their names because they wanted her to cook properly.
Old Lady Su smiled awkwardly. "About that, what about today's silver?"
"Here, Mother!"
She did not tell them that Uncle Li had given her two taels of silver. She knew that even if she had given all the silver to her mother, her mother would not have spent it on them.
Old Lady Su held the crushed silver and grinned from ear to ear, her face filled with greed. "Aiya, raising a daughter is good enough! Oh right, tomorrow, if Madame Zhang is to come, you can prepare a few side dishes to entertain her. "
"Madame Zhang, what is she doing here?"
She had heard of this matchmaker Zhang, who had a really good mouth, who could call ugly men handsome and ugly women celestial as well. In this village, there were several couples who had married her, including Uncle Li, who had a happy occasion today.
"This matchmaker has come to visit. What are you talking about? Stupid lady, of course it's to …"
Old Mrs Su put the silver in her sleeve and looked at Su Yu at her side. "Give your sister as a security agent. Your sister is a cripple. If you marry her earlier, you can ease the burden on your family. Old man, what do you think?"
Old Man Su covered his mouth and coughed as he smoked. "You can decide on the matter of my daughter's family. I'm tired, I'm going to sleep!"
"No, Mother, I'm not marrying! I'm not marrying!"
Su Yu suddenly stood up and cried. Her mother's face immediately changed as she said sarcastically, "What, you're not marrying? Can it be that you want this half old bone of mine to support you for your entire life? "Since young, you've been eating my clothes, and now that you're young, it's good to get married. If you drag it out for another year or two, you would be a cripple. When you get older, who wants you?"
"No, I won't marry. I can eat less, I can work more …"
"Shut up, it's not up to you to listen to our parents' orders!"
"Elder sister …"
"Mother …"
"Alright, shut up. I hope you don't make too much money. I won't scold you. If you marry your sister, you'll have a better life at home!"
After Old Lady Su finished speaking, she stood up and left. Su Yu squatted on the floor and cried non-stop. Suddenly, she stood up and limped out of the house, running out.
"Sister, don't run!"
Su Yu was lame and couldn't run fast, so she was quickly overtaken by Su Jin Se who chased after her. She forcefully pulled Su Yu Yu and pulled her into her embrace. "Where are you going?"
"Sis, I don't want to marry. That matchmaker Zhang is not a good person. Last year, she also came and introduced me to a rotten old man. Could it be that just because I'm lame, I should marry an old man?"
Su Yu cried until she was hoarse. If she had to marry the old man, she might as well jump into the river and die!
"Don't cry, I promise you, as long as you are unwilling, I won't let you marry anyone!"
Su Yu raised her tear-stained face, "But, that matchmaker will come tomorrow."
On the other hand, Su Jin Se had a weird smile on her face. "It's good that she came tomorrow. See if I entertain her properly or not!"
As night fell, the village was quiet and still. As usual, Su Jinsi took a lantern and went up the mountain.
"Hey, are you better? I'll bring you food! "
She carried a lantern and walked into a cave. Inside the cave, a bonfire was blazing vigorously, lighting up the cave.
He saw a man wearing a cloak and a bamboo hat sitting beside a stone, exuding an ice-cold aura.
Seeing that the man didn't say anything, Su Jin Se shot a glance at the two nests she left on the stone bench yesterday. He actually didn't eat them?
She had accidentally saved this man a few days ago when she went up the mountain to pick wild vegetables. This man did not speak nor did he eat. Could it be that she had saved a mute?
"I'm telling you, I wasted a lot of effort to save you. If you don't eat, then don't blame me if you starve to death!"
The man remained silent. He wore a bamboo hat that made him look like an ice sculpture.
She had only been reincarnated in this unfamiliar place for half a month and had become a country girl. She had endless work to do and even had to steal time to send him food, but she didn't expect that this man would not appreciate her kindness.
"There's no cooking at home today, so there's nothing to eat. There's only this little nest, I'll leave half for you!"
Seeing that the man didn't say anything, Su Jin Se took out a head from her bosom. The head wasn't much bigger than a fist, but she was still very satisfied.
The body that she had reincarnated into was small and thin, and her family was poor in terms of warmth and hunger. Sometimes, she would eat a big meal, but when she went to help make a village banquet today, she did not have enough food.
She ate very slowly, afraid that she would finish it in a few bites. The man's back was facing her, so she couldn't tell what he was thinking.
After eating less than half of it, Su Jin Se didn't dare to eat anymore. She walked in front of the man and placed half of her head beside him, "Quickly eat it, you'll recover faster after eating it!"
Through the bamboo hat, the man could clearly see the girl in front of him. She was dressed in coarse clothes, and her petite and thin body could even be blown away by a gust of wind.
He could hear the growling sounds coming from the woman's stomach, but he definitely wouldn't eat something so unpalatable.
"You eat it, I have to go!"
"Sister, your little girl is crippled, so it's not easy to find a wife. However, once I, Madame Zhang, made my move, someone immediately expressed their willingness to marry your daughter, and the other party is from the Zhu Family, which lives next door at the foot of the mountain. His family is a hunter, and he has a blind son, which is very compatible with your daughter. However, as for the betrothal gift, it can only be 10 taels, what do you think?"
Old Lady Su was immediately unhappy. "How come it's only ten taels? He's still blind. Our village's Li Qiang married his daughter. Did his son-in-law give you fifty taels of silver as a betrothal gift?"
"Fifty silver taels, what do you think? Why don't you see what your daughter looks like? Anyway, this is what the Zhu Clan said, what do you think?"
"This …"
Old Lady Su thought for a moment, then waved her hand. "Forget it. As long as someone's willing to take her, ten liang is ten liang. It's fine if there's one less mouth to eat at home!"
