Quick Travel Guide: The Female Supporting Adult Arrives

Chapter 159 Raiding the Husband and the Male Supporting Partner 7
"Sister, tell me the truth, how much money does our family have left?" After entering Ling Wei's room, the eldest brother couldn't help asking.

Ling Wei took out all the copper coins and broken silver that she had hidden in various trivial places, and also took out the silver that she had accumulated in the past few days, and made a pile with these silver coins, and then said to the eldest brother: "This It is the only money left in our family. I did the math. I bought a wooden hairpin and made a lot of money in the past few days because of some things. In addition to the expenses at home, I saved ten taels. I used to be careful not to let my father touch it. Let’s go, add up seven, seven, eighty-eight, and roughly make up one or two.”

"Second brother and I also have two or three taels of silver in our hands. The account of copying books for others has not been settled a few days ago. When it is settled, there will be about three taels of silver."

After the two finished speaking, they looked at each other and saw the helplessness in each other's eyes.Ling Wei only felt bitterness in her mouth.No matter how you count, the family only has less than 20 taels of silver. No matter how hard the two younger brothers and I work hard in the past two or three days, we can probably only increase the total to less than 30 taels.If it was in previous years, two to thirty taels of silver would be enough for the Su family to eat and drink for a year, and one person could make one or two new clothes that are not too expensive, and the annual pen and ink expenses of the two younger brothers would basically be covered.But now... let's think about how to get 30 taels of silver.

Ling Wei found out that the second younger brother was still a little mischievous in the past, but Yuemo went back that night, what did the elder brother say to him.In just these two days, he has also grown up rapidly.

Ling Wei is setting up a stall.It was already time to go home in the past, but Ling Wei was worried because she hadn't raised any money, so she thought that she could spend more time and earn a little more.After all, she still earns too little. In the past two days, her two younger brothers kept helping others copy books while studying. Ling Wei saw it and felt pain in her heart.Seeing her brother and sister working so hard for her, Su Xiaomei secretly cried several times behind her back, but she was small and could only help her brother and sister with housework.The brothers and sisters of the Su family also asked someone to borrow money, but now they are all ordinary people, and none of them are rich, let alone can afford so much money, so they borrowed a lot of people to make up 100 taels. There are still 200 taels of silver left, and the three siblings are so anxious that their mouths are bubbling, but there is still nothing they can do.

Ling Wei took the time to close the stall, and when she was halfway there, she was stopped by a maid who said that Mrs. Liu had an invitation. Ling Wei was apprehensive, but she followed along, and her heart sank inch by inch.Ling Wei clenched the basket in her hand, and secretly decided, otherwise, she would beg Mrs. Liu to replace her sister herself.I think that I was also proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting back then.Even though Mrs. Liu is used to doing skin and meat business, she is a businessman after all, and what I can teach her girls and earn her is more money than I can earn her with my own body.

"Hello, Mrs. Liu." As soon as Ling Wei entered, she saw Mrs. Liu and a lady dressed as a matchmaker sitting at the top, but she only took one look and then turned her gaze away.After all, it was I who wanted something from Mrs. Liu, so if it made Mrs. Liu feel offended, it would be bad.

"As expected of the eldest girl of the Su family, she has the temperament of your mother back then," but it was not Mrs. Liu who said this, but the matchmaker next to Mrs. Liu.

"This lady loves me, I can't compare to my mother," Ling Wei secretly put more weight on this matchmaker in her heart, and the one who can talk over Miss Liu at this time must be Madam Liu who is on good terms with her. people, or their status is not low.

Seeing Ling Wei's response, the matchmaker nodded suddenly, looked at Lady Liu and said, "Sure enough, the elder sister has a good eye. If you ask me to look for it, how can I find such a lovely girl like the eldest girl of the Su family?"

Mrs. Liu apologized to the matchmaker when she heard the words: "Then I'll lick my face and call her sister. My sister is our number one matchmaker in Shangping City. I don't know how many stories of talented men and beauties are held together by my sister's hand." This time, without me, could my sister not be able to find a suitable girl? It’s just that I recommended the eldest girl of the Su family to you because of selfishness. After all, her mother was kind to me in the old days, and now I can help , that is, to return a kindness."

The matchmaker didn't care when she heard the words, she only asked Ling Wei what she did on weekdays, and when Ling Wei was sick last time, the specific date of birth and so on.

Seeing this, Ling Wei knew that it was the matchmaker who wanted to find a woman to marry someone, but she was probably too demanding of her family, so she couldn't find one.As for the identity of this matchmaker... Ling Wei remembered from Mrs. Liu's words about the number one matchmaker in Shangping City just now. This matchmaker is actually from the Liu family.But looking at the relationship between Matchmaker Liu and Mrs. Liu, one can know how low the status of Mrs. Liu is as a flesh and blood businessman.Even though she donated countless goddaughters to high-ranking officials, she was still no match for a matchmaker, and she was even easier to curry favor with.

Ling Wei answered the matchmaker's questions one by one.She was actually a little relieved, after all, there was another choice, so she didn't have to sign the body contract with Lady Liu on behalf of her younger sister.Although she is sure to protect herself in the wind and dust, if there is an older sister who is in the flesh and blood business, will the younger brothers and sisters still have to marry?
The thoughts in her heart were chaotic and complicated. Ling Wei looked at the matchmaker in front of her and suddenly understood Su Lingwei's choice. Because at this moment, like Su Lingwei, a strong desire suddenly arose in her heart.No matter what kind of person that person is, I must try to marry her. If she can be a girl with a crew cut, that's the best. If not... it's better than following Lady Liu and affecting the whole family.

What's more, Ling Wei vaguely knew in her heart that the opportunity for her to get close to the target of the raid this time was right in front of her eyes.

Ling Wei wanted to flatter her, so the matchmaker Liu was naturally satisfied with what she heard and saw, and she immediately said to Ling Wei: "I am the number one matchmaker in Shangping City, and Miss Su has heard of me before. Today I have a It's a great marriage. The man is the eldest son of the Song family in Shangping City. He is Song Che, the eldest brother of the first son, Song Ze. This is the eldest son of the Song family. The past few days have not been good. Liu Matchmaker, let me tell you the truth, Su The girl came in for joy. Whether it can be done or not depends on Miss Su's life. I know it's a bit embarrassing for the girl, but I also know about the girl's family and my old sister. I think This matter... probably only suits the girl. I don't know what the girl likes?"

"It's good for Matchmaker Liu to protect the matchmaker herself." Ling Wei agreed without hesitation or reluctance.

"Okay, okay," Matchmaker Liu beamed with joy when Ling Wei agreed.

"Congratulations to my sister, congratulations to my sister, another marriage made in heaven," Mrs. Liu hurriedly stood up to congratulate Matchmaker Liu upon seeing this.

"Congratulations to Ms. Su too. In the future, Ms. Song will be the daughter-in-law of Song's parents," Madam Liu said, and took a piece of folded paper from her sleeve, and handed it to Ling Wei in front of Matchmaker Liu, "I I don't have any precious things, but I picked up a piece of Lingmei's things a few days ago, which is probably the most in your heart, so I borrowed flowers to present Buddha, and took this to congratulate you. I will call your sister Daddy in the future, so pay attention to the precious things at home. Don't forget about it like this time, even such an important thing can be picked up by others."

Ling Wei took the thin body deed with both hands, and blessed her deeply to Mrs. Liu and Matchmaker Liu: "Thank you matchmaker, thank you lady."

Matchmaker Liu nodded: "I'm going there now, I still have to tell Mrs. Song the good news."

"Sister, go slowly," Mrs. Liu hurriedly dragged Ling Wei to catch up with Liu Matchmaker, and then pulled Ling Wei back to close the door, "Now you have fulfilled your wish and want to return your sister's body deed. But I also want to tell you that the Song family is not easy to get along with, especially the eldest son of the Song family, you may become a widow anytime soon."

Lady Liu saw that Ling Wei was still bowing her head and not speaking, but she still had a polite look on her face, so she couldn't help nodding her head: "Fortunately, you know what's going on, and you agreed immediately. It's better to be someone else's wife than to follow me in the flesh and blood business." There are many. And you will go back to mention something about your younger siblings in the future. Don’t leave your father alone like this. This time you filled it in with your own life. Who can fill it in next time? I won’t accept the second time Your sister's life deed, usually buys a girl for ten taels of silver, but this time I paid a price of 300 taels. I will never do a loss-making business again. The favor I have received from your mother is now gone. It’s over, you guys, just take care of yourself.”
