Quick Travel: Saving the Cannon Fodder Male Supporting Role
Chapter 128 Cannon Fodder in Chronicles (5)
Shen Huanqi didn't know what the two couples were planning.
Even if she knew, she wouldn't stop her. She would tell that woman with her actions what it means to shoot oneself in the foot.
She followed her up the mountain to work. On the way, she met an aunt whom the Queen Mother was familiar with. While asking about her health, she also revealed that there had been a lot of gossip about their family in the village recently.
"I also heard that the old pious woman from the Zhao family said she wanted to come to propose marriage."
When the Queen Mother heard this, she became angry: "This person with a bad conscience didn't care about her eldest grandson who was turned into a fool by the poisonous old lady. She didn't care about beating him up like a beast. Now she has set her sights on my girl. She thinks I am easy to mess with." Yes, if she dares to come, see if I don’t tear her apart!”
This is like setting a flag.
That night, Zhao Yan came to the door with his grandma and brought a pound of sugar, saying that he wanted to talk about the two children.
The Queen Mother was so angry that she almost hit someone with something.
However, the other party's sincere words did not reach the point of threats. She only said that although her grandson was stupid, he was a good worker and would not be able to support her.
The Queen Mother could only suppress her anger and ask the person away.
After the people left, the Queen Mother was about to get angry, but Shen Huan spoke: "She is just testing us now. If you really kick her out, she may spread some unpleasant words, which will be bad for the family's reputation."
The Queen Mother shouted: "No reputation is as important as my daughter."
That's what they say, but whether reputation is important or not, they actually all know.
"What she said makes sense. Looking at Zhao Yansui, although he is a bit stupid, he is obedient and willing to work. If he can live separately, I will take care of everything, so there is nothing wrong with him."
Queen Mother: "..."
"You didn't say good things to him because he saved you, right?"
"I'm just telling the truth."
Apart from being a bit silly, Zhao Yansui's reputation in the village is not bad. On the contrary, because he often does farm work, even though he is forced to do so, he still has a reputation as hardworking and capable.
If they can separate their families and have their daughter supervise him doing things at home and outside the home, and they can help him from the side, life shouldn't be too difficult.
"Then what do you think?"
Shen Huan imitated the tone of the original owner and said: "Of course I still listen to my parents. The second brother is about to get married. I thought that if they talk nonsense outside then, the second brother may be affected."
These words really took the Queen Mother's lifeline into consideration.
She likes her daughter, but in the heart of a rural woman, her daughter can never be as good as her son. If her son's marriage is really in trouble because of their refusal to agree to the Zhao family, she will feel uncomfortable.
After hesitating for a long time, she said: "Let's take a look again."
The prince's father seemed to think it didn't matter. The eldest brother wanted to say something, but his wife stopped him.
This era is still much harsher on women. The same thing that is a romantic affair for a man is not allowed by nature for a woman.
On the other hand, Zhao Yansui was her savior and a poor idiot. Even if they were not together, their family would have to take more care of him in the future.
In this case, it is better to do as she said.
Grandma Zhao probably sensed that the Queen Mother was not happy, and her words to the outside world were not so pleasant. Although it could not be said to ruin her reputation, it made the villagers think that she and Zhao Yansui were discussing marriage.
When the Queen Mother heard the question from an acquaintance, no matter how unhappy she felt, she did not directly deny it.
The Zhao family's plan was to catch the duck, but the Queen Mother had no way to refute the rumors. According to the past rules, unmarried men and women hugged each other wetly in the river to block other people's mouths.
If she didn't deny it, the other party would take it seriously.
"Then when are you going to finish the matter? Your Xiaohuan is also seventeen or eighteen years old. I remember that when her sister was the same age as her, she almost had a child."
In rural areas, early marriage and early pregnancy are the norm. Most people of the original owner's age are already married, and even more so, they are mothers of children.
The Queen Mother was really upset and could only smile and deal with it: "Let's talk about it later. Isn't it busy with farming now? I don't have time to ask everyone for help."
This makes sense.
Everyone is busy with work. If any family has a wedding or something to do, they have to help for a day or two at least. People like them who are close to each other can help for a longer time.
The aunt didn't continue to ask.
What the Queen Mother wanted to do was to wait and hear it in other people's ears. If she didn't deny it, she would admit it. After these words spread, almost the entire village believed that the two of them were going to be together.
Shen Huanxi saw the success.

Sun Cheng heard that his stepmother was also discussing this matter, saying that she had had an idea for that man before and wanted to give it to his brother, but the Queen Mother was not happy about it, so everything went wrong.
The woman, who looked down on her normal son at that time, was now forced to marry a fool. Naturally, the woman was very proud.
"It's not like he's a golden boy. He looked down on my son at that time. Now he's been picked up by a fool. He deserves it!"
Sun Cheng: "..." He felt that the man did it on purpose.
Judging from her behavior in the past few days, she really didn't look like someone who would be caught and reduced to this situation.
That can only mean that everything is her own opinion.
The stepmother had a few words with a village woman she was familiar with, and somehow the conversation ended up involving Sun Cheng. When the aunt asked about Sun Cheng's marriage, his stepmother rolled her eyes.
"Where do I have to take care of his affairs? When his mother was here, she made a reservation for him with a girl from the village chief's family. Didn't Yao Tao flirt with that person before? I've come to see him twice in the past few days, but I haven't met him yet. "
After Yao Tao was reborn, she stayed away from the scumbag. She came to Sun Cheng several times to try to get close to him. By the way, she mentioned their engagement, but I don’t know if Sun Cheng did it on purpose. Either he didn’t meet her when he came, or he was in a hurry, so he didn’t. Say a few words and leave.
"He is not young anymore. If you don't start a family, everyone in the village will talk about you."
She is the stepmother and has the responsibility to manage her stepson's marriage. If he cannot get married, people will think that she has gone too far and is unwilling to help her stepson find a daughter-in-law.
The woman didn't want to take the blame, so she immediately reached out and waved to him: "Sun Cheng, the little girl from the Yao family has come to see you several times in the past two days. You two are engaged, so you have time to go out and hang out with others."
Sun Cheng is currently busy with his career and is not very wise about it.
"I see."
Seeing that the sun was getting higher outside, he asked some friends he knew to go see the goods together, then got up and rode his bicycle out.
"Sun Cheng, where are you going? You have to go up the mountain in a while."
Sun Cheng replied without looking back: "I have something to do, you can go on your own."
The stepmother was so angry that she threw the beans in her hand and quickly picked them up again.
The aunt asked suspiciously: "I see that he runs to town every now and then. Could it be that he has a lover in town?"
The stepmother rolled her eyes: "I don't care if he has it or not, I don't want to worry about his bad things. When he came back from the army, he didn't give me a penny. Except for bringing back some food every now and then, I had to take care of everything like washing and cooking." , like an old woman."
"Hey, aren't we women just to be mothers for men? No matter what others don't like, we don't care if outsiders don't like it. It's a dilemma."
"Who says it's not..."
