Butcher Xu helped Huo Tianxiang into the house. He was afraid that Huo Tianxiang would get angry, so he didn't dare to say anything. He handed the thank-you gift to Huo Yunchao into the hands of his stepmother Chen and left quickly.

Mrs. Chen looked at the mark on the wine pot and her eyes widened suddenly. This was the most expensive wine in the town. This small pot of wine was worth a hundred coins!

Then weigh that fine strip of fat and thin pork belly. It weighs at least three kilograms!

Mrs. Chen was stunned. A pound of pork belly sold for 20 cents. This thank you gift was worth cents in total! Big deal!

Butcher Xu was so humble that he was willing to spend so much money on a thank-you gift! How rich is the Xu family's wealth?

Mrs. Chen's mind became active. She wished that Huo Yunchao could become a son-in-law to the well-off Xu family. In this way, instead of having to pay a bride price to marry him, she would also be able to recover a "dowry".

Ms. Chen believed that she was a competent stepmother, and she contributed money and effort to support Huo Yunchao's education. She should have a share of Huo Yunchao's "dowry"!

However, with Huo Tianxiang's biological father here, it was not her stepmother's turn to make the final decision on Huo Yunchao's marriage.

When there was no one else around him, Huo Tianxiang let out a long sigh: Children are all debts.

Huo Yunchao studied for twelve years, failed to become a scholar and came back to shine, and was criticized like that by the county magistrate. Huo Tianxiang was extremely disappointed with his eldest son.

In addition, as the two sons born to Mr. Chen grew up, Huo Tianxiang became increasingly unable to provide for Huo Yunchao's education.

Even so, Huo Tianxiang never thought about asking his eldest son to be the son-in-law of the Xu family. Not only would it be embarrassing to become a bride-in-law, but more importantly, the future of the bride-in-law would be dark.

The door-to-door son-in-law is so

Is it a good deal? Which son-in-law who comes to the house is not a lowly child and lives worse than a dog? A lifetime of being poked in the spine, ridiculed and humiliated!

Huo Yunchao was afraid that Huo Tianxiang would regret it and deny it, so he invited the old clan leader and three clan elders to be disturbed.

The clan leader and others took turns to persuade and use various threats and inducements.

Huo Yunchao sticks to his heart, refuses to accept soft or hard, and is invulnerable.

He ate the weight and became determined to become the Xu family's son-in-law!

Seeing that Huo Yunchao's determination to marry into his wife was as solid as a rock, Huo Tianxiang felt exhausted and powerless like never before.

After seeing off the clan leader and clan elders, Huo Tianxiang returned to the house with a look of despair, not even having the energy to reprimand Huo Yunchao.

The news of the marriage had already spread in the village. Butcher Xu came to the house early in the morning with wine and meat, and saw Huo Yunchao going to invite the head of the Huo family and the elders back home.

In the eyes of outsiders, it was a certainty that Huo Yunchao would marry into the Xu family.

The villagers were afraid of being exposed to the coffin's bad luck, so no one asked Xu Ning. They had to drag Aunt Ma, who was closest to Xu Ning, to ask.

Aunt Ma said that the wine and meat that Butcher Xu sent to her door were not the engagement gift between Xu Ning and Huo Yunchao, but a special thank you gift to Huo Yunchao for exposing Matchmaker Fang's vicious heart!

Ten people came to ask, but eleven people didn't believe this argument. They turned to find another client-Huo Yunchao.

Huo Yunzhao told the truth in detail. He didn't want the Xu family and his daughter to mistakenly think that he was trying to repay a favor, so he repeatedly emphasized that he was still working hard to become the Xu family's son-in-law, and hoped that everyone would speak kindly to him in front of the Xu family and his daughter.

Aunt Ma told Xu Ning all the rumors in the village about Huo Yunchao's marriage.

Meet Xu Ning

With a calm look on her face, Aunt Ma asked curiously: "Mother Ning, what are you thinking?"

Xu Ning was stunned for a few seconds and replied vaguely: "I listen to my father."

Aunt Ma thought of what Huo Yunchao said to her in the grove, and also thought that in order to marry into the Xu family, he did not hesitate to ask the head of the Huo family and the elders to persuade Huo Tianxiang.

Even though it was Aunt Ma who was not optimistic about Huo Yunchao at first, she couldn't help but say something nice for him now: "Mother Ning, I used to think that Huo Shulang came to you because he wanted to find someone to continue his studies. Now Huo Shulang does To show his sincerity, I think he is not here for your money, but for you."
