The lucky girl in the village has a good way of making money.

Chapter 302 Tell Me Quietly

When Old Man Li asked this question, he didn't even realize that his heart was in his throat, and the expressions of the other people were also nervous.

After all, this girl has such a glorious history!

She looked down on the students from landlords' families, she looked down on the sons of wealthy merchants in the city, she looked down on the sons of the county yamen's chief clerks, she still looked down on the sons of the county magistrate's family, and so on... In short, there were too many to count.

Even though so many of them looked down upon the previous ones, they all thought that they were good marriages!
What about this time?

What does Pomegranate think?
Several people stared at the pomegranate nervously, without even blinking.

Being stared at by so many pairs of eyes, Shi Liu felt a lot of pressure.

She had no doubt that if she said "I really don't like it" at this moment, she would definitely be "beaten up"!
It's so hard.

"That sounds good, but I've never even seen Chief Fan's grandson—"

Song said immediately, "He's a handsome boy. I'm not going to bluff you. It's easy to tell. When matchmaker Wang comes again tomorrow, we'll find a day to let you see him carefully and you'll know!"

".But he is already eighteen, four years older than me——"

Old Yuan said hurriedly: "It's good to be four years older. A man who is four years older than you has a good temper. He will be more caring when he is older than you!"

"But."

"Pomegranate!" Song suddenly called out, staring at Pomegranate, and said, "You are not looking down on her again, are you? You haven't even seen her. She is a scholar and the grandson of the clan leader. How can you look down on her? What are you thinking?"

Shi Liu pursed her lips. She knew it was better to see each other first and then decide if they were not compatible, but the result was inevitable. If she agreed to see each other and then rejected the marriage proposal, wouldn't that embarrass the Fan family? It would be better to reject the marriage proposal directly without seeing each other and then there would be nothing to say.

So she stiffened her neck and said, "I just don't like it."

Song was so angry that she raised her hand and wanted to hit her, but she fell and slapped the table instead. "Pomegranate, what on earth are you thinking about!"

"You're not really going to not want to get married as you said two years ago, are you?" Song's eyes widened and her face turned pale, as if she would die immediately if Shi Liu really said this.

Seeing that she was very angry, Li Jihe hurried over to pat her back to comfort her.

"I didn't say I didn't want to get married."

"Then what on earth are you going to do?"

Patriarch Li and Li Yishan looked at each other and said nothing.

Shi Liu is different from any other girl in the tribe. Even the tribe leader cannot use his status as the tribe leader to order Shi Liu or force her to marry someone.

And precisely because he is the patriarch, he cannot do this.

How could I make such a good child sad?

Old Mrs. Yuan sighed and asked Patriarch Li and Li Yishan to go back first and not make the matter public.

After the two men left, Old Yuan said to Shi Liu, "Shi Liu, come upstairs with grandma."

Having said that, he got up and went to the west room.

Pomegranate followed after hearing this.

After entering the west room, Old Yuan patted the people beside her and asked Shi Liu to come and sit down.

Shi Liu obediently went over and sat next to Old Yuan, "Grandma."

Old Yuan looked at her for a long while, then reached out and touched the top of her head. "There's no one else here. Tell grandma quietly, do you have someone you like?"

The old man with the wrinkled face seemed to slowly merge with the person in her memory, and Shi Liu's nose couldn't help but feel sore.

Then he smiled and said, "No! If I really did, I would tell you directly. Would you still disagree? Why should I hide it?" Old Yuan thought that this was true, but why?

She couldn't help but think more deeply. What if the person her granddaughter liked was of very high status, and their family's position was totally beyond their reach?
This is not impossible.

But looking at her granddaughter's clear eyes, Old Yuan didn't ask, she just said: "It's good that you know it in your heart. Grandma just wants to tell you that this marriage with the eldest grandson of Patriarch Fan is really a good one. If you miss it, you will never have it again. Promise grandma to think about it carefully, okay?"

Pomegranate paused, then nodded, "Okay, I'll think about it carefully."

When Old Yuan saw that she agreed, she let her go out and called Song back in. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law talked about something behind closed doors. When Song came out again, she looked very calm.

What's more, after a night of "careful consideration", Shi Liu woke up the next morning and looked at her eagerly and told her that he did not like this marriage. She was just stunned for a moment, sighed, and just said that she knew and would report back to the matchmaker, and said nothing else.

Shi Liu was also curious and asked anxiously, "Mom, you won't scold me anymore?"

Song glared at her, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "Why would mother scold you? If you don't want to get married, can mother really tie you up and force you to get married? As long as you don't regret it."

"I definitely don't regret it!" Pomegranate smiled.

Song also sighed secretly, what a child.

When Matchmaker Wang came again, Song politely declined the marriage proposal. Seeing Matchmaker Wang's surprise, she couldn't hide it in time. She was also very embarrassed.

But she couldn't take care of it. Lin was about to give birth, and she had to take care of the confinement arrangements. After the full month, she had to prepare for her eldest daughter's marriage. She was busy with that.

Fortunately, my daughter is still young, so she can just wait for fate, as long as she doesn’t regret it.

To be honest, she also knew that her daughter was a person with her own brain and could think for herself, otherwise, she really couldn't just let her do whatever she wanted.

On the Fan family's side, Mrs. Kong was also choked up when she received the reply from matchmaker Wang.

It took him a long while to come back to his senses. He took a thank-you gift to matchmaker Wang and sent her out, then turned around and went upstairs.

"Father-in-law, the Li family has rejected the marriage proposal."

Her father-in-law had said before that this might not work out, and she didn't take it seriously, but in fact it didn't work out.

She also couldn't understand why the Li family looked down on such a good son of hers.

Which mother doesn't think her son is perfect? ​​It's even more so that her son is good to begin with. But the Li family looks down on him. How could she not be angry?

If I had known earlier, I should not have listened to my father-in-law and proposed this marriage. I lost face in vain.

You know, her son is already eighteen years old this year, and she has never mentioned it to anyone in a serious manner. Even when her parents wanted to marry their daughter to her, she refused.

She thought that once Meng'er passed the imperial examination, there would be many good marriage proposals waiting for him to choose from. A daughter of a noble family like that was the unanimous choice between her and her father-in-law.

Who would have thought that her father-in-law would suddenly change his mind, and in the end this was the result. Kong was extremely depressed.

When Patriarch Fan heard that the Li family rejected the marriage proposal and did not even bother to meet the girl, he was also stunned. Even though he had this idea in mind, he could not help but feel disappointed at this moment.

It didn’t work.

It's better that we don't see each other, so as to avoid losing face.

What on earth is the Li family, no, I should say this pomegranate girl, thinking?

Patriarch Fan felt that he had lived in vain for more than sixty years as he could not understand this little girl.

However, since the chief clerk and the county magistrate had been rejected, it seemed that there was nothing to lose face about.

He was just curious about who would end up marrying this promising girl.
