Reborn Ugly Girl Farming to Support the Family
Chapter 172 Thoughts
Is this, ice?
The old aunt was even more surprised. She didn't expect to see ice in such a farm.
Her family was considered to have some assets, but they were not so extravagant as to buy ice cream to eat in the summer.
The old lady looked around the house suspiciously, there was no sign that this was a household that could make ice.
She looked at her granddaughter again and found that she was also looking at the ice porridge in her hand with surprise.
She would not be surprised if this thing appeared in a wealthy family in the city.
But her appearance in this remote area really shocked her.
Are the conditions of this family really as they appear?
The old aunt wanted to ask her cousin how there was ice in his family, and judging from their attitude, it seemed that they did not take the ice seriously.
But thinking of the unpleasantness that had just happened, he swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue.
At lunch time, the old aunt did not see Zheng Qingming at the table.
She looked at Zhou Chunfeng and asked, "Why didn't Qingming and Lixia come back?"
Zhou Chunfeng paused for a moment, "They have a lot of schoolwork these days, so they stay in the school to read at noon and won't come back."
The old lady nodded, thought for a moment and said, "It is indeed the case that we should focus on our studies."
After that she didn't say anything else and everyone continued to eat in silence.
But when it was time for dinner, she still didn't see Zheng Qingming and Lixia. She frowned and said, "It's a good thing for the children to be studious, but health is also important. How can they not come back for dinner at night?"
Zhou Chunfeng did not hide it from her, "Qingming and his family will not be coming back to live at night. Since you and Luo Ying want to stay at home, I will let Qingming and Lixia stay with his parents for a few days."
The old lady looked at her in astonishment. "Why? It's not like you don't have enough rooms here, why do you want to let the children move out?"
Zhou Chunfeng cursed in her heart, why don’t you know what’s going on?
She glanced at Zhuang Luoying who was hanging her head, and then said, "Qingming is already fourteen this year, and Luoying is also at the age to get married.
Madam, didn’t you say that boys and girls should not sit at the same table after the age of seven?
Although we are all relatives, we still need to be careful to avoid ruining the girl's reputation."
Zhuang Luoying slowly clenched her hand holding the handkerchief and lowered her head so that no one could see her expression.
The old aunt was so angry that she fell backwards when she heard her say back to her.
Okay, okay, he's actually waiting for her here.
She tried hard to suppress the anger that was rising up in her heart. "They are cousins. What's wrong with meeting each other? You can't go out and run into each other on the street in the future and not recognize who they are, right?"
She just wanted to let her nephew and granddaughter meet today, but who would have thought such an accident would happen.
Zhou Chunfeng felt that there was something wrong with this old lady. Could it be that they came here just for her son?
She instantly became alert and looked at the old lady with scrutiny.
Seeing that Zhou Chunfeng did not reply, the old lady continued, "Ask Qingming to come back tomorrow so that the two younger generations can get to know each other."
Old Madam Zheng also sensed something was wrong. She looked at the old lady with suspicion, "They will always have a chance to meet in the future. Why are you in such a hurry?"
The old aunt pursed her lips. She was anxious, of course she was anxious.
She looked at her granddaughter, then looked at the Zheng family members who were all looking at her.
After gritting his teeth, he could only speak out his plan.
“Actually, I came here for something else.
The last time I came to see Qingming, I thought this kid was very nice.
It just so happened that my granddaughter was also of marriageable age, so I wanted to strengthen the relationship and make the two children one family. "
Zhou Chunfeng's face darkened completely this time. You said we can meet, so we can meet? You said we can become a family, so we can become a family? Have you asked me, your mother?
Old Mrs. Zheng was also amused by her words. She is the biological grandmother of her eldest grandson. What the hell are you, a cousin?
But before Mrs. Zheng could speak, the old lady continued, "My granddaughter's family is a scholarly family. Her father, my son-in-law, is a scholar who opened a private school in the town.
Luo Ying's grandfather was also a scholar.
This child has been learning to read and write with his family since he was young, and he is also proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting.
Even compared with those young ladies from wealthy families, she is not inferior in any way.
If I hadn’t seen that Qingming was a good kid and I liked him very much, I really wouldn’t have thought of telling Luoying to him.”
Zheng Xiaoman looked at the old lady talking to herself, and every word she said was full of contempt for their family.
It seemed like it was a blessing to their family that her brother could talk to her granddaughter.
Zheng Xiaoman rolled his eyes, looked at her and said with a smile: "Oh, my cousin is so outstanding, it's amazing.
But then I wonder, since my cousin is so outstanding, hasn’t anyone come to our house to propose marriage to her before?"
That's right, you are so outstanding, how could you not have come to my house to propose marriage? Why bother to go to our remote mountain village to find a husband?
The most important thing is that although her brother is very outstanding, that’s just how her family thinks he is.
Her brother is just an ordinary student now, and has no achievements.
You said that after watching him once, you could tell that he would have a great future. Isn't that nonsense?
Zhuang Luoying's body stiffened after hearing Zheng Xiaoman's words, but she still didn't say anything.
The old lady was not happy with Zheng Xiaoman's interruption, she said: "Of course there are people who propose marriage, but none of their families like it.
Besides, Luo Ying is still young, so her family wants to keep her at home for a few more years."
Zheng Xiaoman pretended to understand and said "oh", then tilted her head and asked with a questioning look on her face: "Since my family wants to keep my cousin for a few more years, why did you bring my cousin here again today? What you said is really contradictory."
She blinked her eyes with an innocent look.
Old aunt...this little kid doesn't have so many whys.
She decided not to pay any more attention to Zheng Xiaoman, and instead looked at Old Man Zheng who seemed to be thinking about something unknown.
"Cousin, I am your biological cousin, how could I have any bad intentions?
Look at my granddaughter, there is nothing wrong with her, whether it's her appearance or her figure.
If I didn't think that we are relatives, I really wouldn't have brought my granddaughter to your place.
I was thinking that my granddaughter’s father was a juren, and if she takes the imperial examination in the future during the Qingming Festival, he could help her, right? "
These words were truly spoken from the bottom of the heart and were for the good of their family, but why didn't Zheng Xiaoman believe it?
Old Man Zheng raised his head and said with a smile: "Cousin, I can't make the decision about Qingming and the others.
Our children's affairs are up to them."
The old lady frowned again, "Isn't this nonsense? Marriage is a matter of parents' orders and matchmakers' words since ancient times. How can we let children do whatever they want?"
Old Man Zheng was not angry, and he still smiled and said in a good-tempered manner: "Our family is just an ordinary farmer. We, as elders, have no ability and cannot give our children a rich life like your family.
These children were born in families where none of them had not suffered hardships. Because of the conditions at home, the children are more sensible than other children.
Looking at these sensible children, we feel relieved and distressed, and just want to give them all the good things we can.
This marriage is related to the children's whole life. We don't ask for anything else, we just hope that the children really like it. "
To put it simply, the children don't complain about their family's poverty, so how can we have the face to make demands on them?
