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

Chapter 414 My Senior Brother is Very Tough
Li Rongzhang didn't even go home after school and was taken to Dazaozhuang by Hu Zhen.

"Second sister, what's the matter that's so urgent for you to talk to me about? I haven't even returned to the Cheng family yet, and the two new summer dresses that Sister Hongxiu made for me are still at home, along with my books."

"It's not me who's looking for you, it's my mother." Shi Liu tried to pass the buck.

Song waved her hand and said, "Send someone home to get the clothes and books tomorrow. Now I have something important to ask you, please come in quickly."

"What's the matter?" Li Rongzhang asked curiously.

"Tell mother about your senior brother Fan Jin." Song said.

Li Rongzhang was stunned. Why was his mother asking Senior Brother Fan Jin what he was doing?
Thinking of how Brother Fan Jin was smiling at him in the academy today, as if he had some great news - Li Rongzhang paused and glanced at his second sister.

Then he smiled and said, "Senior Brother Fan Jin is doing very well! He is going to take the college entrance examination this year and is working very hard. The teacher always nods when he talks about him!
Senior Brother Fan Jin is also very kind to me. He takes good care of me in the academy, often brings me snacks, and lends me the books and notes he has read without hesitation! I like Senior Brother Fan Jin the most!"

When talking about Senior Brother Fan Jin, her little face was full of smiles, which she couldn't contain.

Seeing his expression, Song shook her head and laughed, "I've heard you say this many times before. I'm not asking you this now. I want to ask you, how is Fan Jin? Isn't it said that he has been weak since he was a child?"

Hearing this question, Li Rongzhang looked puzzled, "Who said that Senior Brother Fan Jin is in poor health? I think he is very strong, even stronger than my elder brother!
One time, I ran too fast into the school and bumped into him. I was knocked over and fell flat on my face. His chest was as hard as a rock!"

Shi Liu heard this and muttered: "It's amazing! It's only been a short time, but he has developed chest and abdominal muscles on his small body?" She didn't see it that day because he was wearing an ancient long-sleeved and long-trousered shirt. He looked quite thin.

As he muttered, his mind inevitably emerged with the image of his sexually charged figure from his previous life—

Suck.

Shi Liu quickly raised her hand to cover her mouth.

But no one noticed her.

Song was a little skeptical when she heard what Li Rongzhang said, "Really?"

"Really? Why would I lie to you? If you don't believe me, go ask us at the academy! In the last arm-wrestling competition, few people could beat Senior Brother Fan Jin. His arms were so strong that he could lift me up! He's obviously only a few years older than me!"
Don’t I practice that exercise every morning? That’s what Senior Brother Fan Jin taught me. I heard that he also practices it every morning and evening, and his practice is different. It’s amazing!
If you are really weak and have trouble walking a long distance, how can you get up early every day and run around the village? "

At this point, Song had to believe that Fan Jin was really in good health!
From this perspective, is this marriage still possible?
Anyway, it doesn't matter whether it succeeds or not, my daughter has already accepted the jade pendant from someone else -

Song sighed softly and shut her mouth. Never mind, this would be the son-in-law.

Li Rongzhang was completely confused and pulled her aside to ask what was going on.

Old Mrs. Yuan, who was standing by, told the reporter about the matchmaker’s visit.

Li Rongzhang was stunned at first, then jumped up on the spot.

"Oh my! My second sister has agreed to this marriage? This is really great! Senior Brother Fan Jin is my second brother-in-law, that's great!"

He was wondering why Senior Brother Fan looked so proud today, and it turned out to be because of this happy event!

Why is that wrong? Senior Brother Fan Jin is in school and hasn't been home yet, so how can he know that the matchmaker's proposal will be successful today?
Thinking of something, Li Rongzhang winked at Shi Liu - hehehehe, he must have discussed this with his second sister a long time ago!

Oh my, his second brother-in-law, who he had high hopes for, is finally getting all the benefits!

Shi Liu rubbed her hands together because of his obscene smile. Tsk tsk, it was such a hot day and she had goose bumps all over her body.

He raised his hand and knocked him, "Go read a book!"

Li Rongzhang curled his lips and looked at Song, "Mom, look at my second sister. I'm sweating all over and I haven't even had a good rest!"

Song naturally sided with her daughter, "Your second sister asked you to study, why don't you go?"

But Father Li said with a smile: "Zhang'er, go ahead. Grandpa will ask Xichun to cut a plate of watermelon for you!"

Li Rongzhang went down with a pout on his face.

Song turned around and looked at Old Yuan, "Mother, what do you think about this marriage——"

Old Yuan looked at Shi Liu and said, "Since Shi Liu has agreed, there is nothing wrong with this marriage. I think it's fine. We just have to see when the other party will come to ask for the bride price."

Speaking of this, Old Mrs. Yuan was also feeling a little emotional. The Fan family was quite serious and followed all the procedures including the Three Books and Six Ceremonies. Well, it would be a great honor for her granddaughter to marry into the Fan family.

Father Li said, "Should we tell Big Brother and his family about this? When the Fan family comes to have a small engagement, we'll have to prepare a few tables to make it lively."

That's true. For a small deposit, a big deposit, and the final make-up, the woman's side has to pay for the drinks.

Shi Liu just listened to their chattering and then turned around and slipped out of the main hall.

The sun has set and the mountain breeze is blowing gently, making it feel quite cool.

Dazaozhuang is a vast farm, with hundreds of acres of mountain grass planted one after another. The sheep on the mountain have just been sheared and are grazing and strolling all over the mountain. It is really a beautiful sight.

Pomegranate strolled along the cobblestone path, gazing at the mountains in the distance.

Hu Zhen followed from the side, not too far behind Shi Liu. "Miss, there is a stranger wandering outside the manor."

Pomegranate paused, "Did I see that?"

"It's only today. Maybe he knows you're at the farm."

Shi Liu suddenly smiled, "I've been waiting for a month, and now they're finally here. I was just afraid they wouldn't come."

It’s better to come. The sooner the problem is solved, the sooner it can be solved. Otherwise, I will always be worried and uncomfortable.

However, if she doesn't leave the village, how can she give the other party a chance?

After a moment of silence, Shi Liu said, "Let's go into the city tomorrow to check out the situation at the training base."

Hu Zhen immediately understood, "I will prepare the carriage and horses right away."

-

After having a full meal and taking a nap, Matchmaker Jin walked out of the Fan family with a smile on her face, rode away on her donkey.

After watching the matchmaker Jin walk away, Chang turned around and looked at Lu, and couldn't help laughing: "It's finally good, the Li family has agreed to this marriage!"

She also didn't expect that the proposal that failed last year would be successful this time a year later. The fact that her brother's wife was able to marry that Pomegranate girl was all thanks to the help of her second uncle from underground!

"I think that pomegranate girl is blessed, and this name is very auspicious. Once she gets married, she will surely blossom and bear fruit as much as a pomegranate, making your family lively and bustling!"

The heavy stone in Mrs. Lu's heart fell by half. She was naturally happy that her son's marriage had been settled, and it was a marriage that her son was happy with.

She just smiled at her sister-in-law's words. The name "Pomegranate" was auspicious, but after her daughter-in-law got married, how many children she had was their business, and as a mother-in-law, she naturally didn't have much to say.

She only gave birth to Jin'er in her life, and then her health deteriorated and she couldn't have more children. Having children is a matter of fate and cannot be forced.

At this time, Patriarch Fan, leaning on a cane and supported by his grandson, came in quickly. Seeing his two nieces-in-law standing at the door, he was also puzzled, "Didn't they say that the matchmaker Jin from the city was having dinner at your house? Has Jin'er's marriage been settled?"

Patriarch Fan went out to attend an old friend's birthday party. He had been gone for several days. When he came back, he heard that a matchmaker had come to the Lu family's house and was coming and going. So he hurried over to take a look.

Chang quickly responded, "Uncle, Jin'er's marriage has been arranged. We will choose an auspicious day tomorrow to come and ask for the bride price and place the engagement letter! Second uncle is a good writer, so we'll have to trouble him to write the engagement letter!"

"Okay, okay." Patriarch Fan said yes repeatedly, and then asked, "But what about the girl from the Yang family who I mentioned last time?"

"No." Mrs. Lu smiled and invited her uncle into the house for some tea. Although the sun was setting, it was still hot.

Patriarch Fan followed suit and went into the house.

Mrs. Lu asked the maid to serve tea to Patriarch Fan, and then replied, "It's not the girl from the Yang family, it's the girl from the Li family across the street."

During the period of no response just now, Patriarch Fan thought that it was the girl from the Yang family. He thought that they were a good match, as the Yang family was also a small landlord.

But when he heard this, Patriarch Fan was stunned. "The Li family across the street? Is she the granddaughter of Patriarch Li? Is she Chengzi's granddaughter?"

He was thinking about the Li clan leader's family. Not only did they have some land, but he also heard that they had bought houses and shops in the city in the past two years, so they were a good match.

If they become sons or granddaughters, they will also have the blood of their Fan family.

Chang grinned, "No, uncle, you won't guess who it is!"

If she is not the granddaughter of the patriarch, then which family is the patriarch of the Li family?
It's not that he values ​​family background. Jin'er is already a scholar with the title of Tongsheng, and will soon take part in the imperial examination. His family situation is also such that he can never marry a girl from an ordinary family.

But he was only an uncle, not a real grandfather. Even though he was the clan leader, he had no right to interfere with other people's choice of wife.

Patriarch Fan opened his mouth and closed it again.

Chang knew he didn't think that way when she saw him like that, and couldn't sit still, so she said directly: "Oh, uncle, it's not someone else, it's Li Ji and his little girl across the street, the famous Pomegranate Girl!"

"What?!" Chief Fan was obviously shocked. "You mean Miss Pomegranate?"

Then he looked at Mrs. Lu and asked, "Did they agree?"

"Yes! I asked my third uncle to pick out a few auspicious days, and I'm going to prepare everything and go to your house to propose marriage!" Mrs. Lu said with a smile.

Patriarch Fan touched the end of his cane again and again, feeling very surprised. "Okay, okay, this is fate!"

He remembered that last year his niece-in-law also asked Chengzi's daughter to go to the Li family to find out the situation, but it failed.

Come to think of it, didn't he also invite a matchmaker to propose a marriage to his eldest grandson? His eldest grandson was a scholar, but the Li family rejected him. He couldn't help feeling very regretful at the time, but it was fate. At the beginning of this year, his eldest grandson got a good marriage, and the daughter of the county school instructor.

And my nephew’s grandson, who didn’t get married last year, succeeded this year. Isn’t this fate?
Oh, they didn’t expect that Miss Pomegranate, this golden phoenix, would finally fall into the hands of their Fan family!

For a moment, the head of the Fan clan was filled with emotion and excitement, and he said directly to Mrs. Lu, "We can't be careless about this marriage. Our Fan clan is a reputable family, and we must follow the rules of the three letters and six ceremonies. If you need any help, just let me know. On the day of the betrothal, I will ask his uncle and aunt to go with him!"
