Kuaiwen: I earn a pension by breaking through the game

Chapter 73 Women don’t have to marry

"Not only is he handsome, but he is also very tall! He is tall and strong, and he looks very imposing when he stands there!"

"Many girls in the village would blush if they bumped into him when they were washing clothes by the river! Auntie, let me tell you secretly, this Xiao Orion is also interested in you."

It can be seen that although Matchmaker Wang is a bit old, she is still a young woman who likes to look at handsome men.

Speaking of this Xiao Orion, the sweet and shy smile on the corner of his mouth could not be concealed. He was completely different from when he mentioned Lao Wu just now.

Hearing Matchmaker Wang say that the other party was interested in him, Jiang Qiucheng touched his chin in disbelief and fell into thinking.

If what Matchmaker Wang said this time is correct, he is just the right age and good-looking. Logically speaking, he should be very popular. How come there is still a chance to introduce him to her? Not to mention that the other party is interested in me?
Why do you think this is wrong? Although I don't know if the original owner had any private contact with Xiao Orion before, from an objective perspective, the credibility of this matter is not very high.

Out of instinctive vigilance, Jiang Qiucheng immediately felt that there must be something fishy in this matter!

Maybe there was a pit buried somewhere, waiting for her to jump down!
When this woman looks at a man, what she cares about most is just those two things - appearance and family background.

Since there is nothing wrong with Xiao Orion's appearance, and he can even be said to be one of the best in the village, then the most important reason that hinders other girls' choices should be his family background.

The situation of other women is different from Jiang Qiucheng. The marriage must be checked by the parents first. Without the parents' nod of permission, it is impossible to get married.

This Xiao Orion obviously couldn't pass the test of his elders, which made countless young girls in Huaichun secretly annoyed.

Because they were from the same village, it was really easy to find out. I was afraid that it would be a thankless task. This time, Matchmaker Wang did not hide it and told the reason behind it straightforwardly.

"This Xiao Orion is pretty good in everything, but his family background...is a little bit behind."

"This child also had a hard life. His father was also a hunter. When he went hunting in the mountains, he was bitten to death by some wild beast. When he was found, he was almost completely eaten. He could only identify his identity by his clothes. . As soon as his father died, the family's livelihood fell on his mother. He was still young at that time and could not help much, but how could his mother, a weak woman, hold on for long? She ran away within two years. "

"My father is dead and my mother has run away. There is only an old grandmother left in the family who is very sick. She has a cough every three days and a leg pain every five days. There are so many problems all over her body. I don't know how much money it would cost to treat her." , It’s like a bottomless pit.”

"The lovely old lady is still breathing, so we can't just watch her die, right? So we can only ask the wild doctor to prescribe the prescription, and go up the mountain to collect the medicine to prepare it ourselves. After going back and forth, the grandfather and grandson have also been pulling each other. For several years. In order to make quick money, Hunter Xiao had no choice but to pick up his father’s bow, arrows and weapons, climb up the mountain, and become a hunter.”

It has to be said that Matchmaker Wang is really talented in telling stories. With just a few words, Jiang Qiucheng can understand how difficult it has been for Xiao Orion over the years.

But it's not his business, so there's no reason for him to help the poor and endure hardships, right?

Jiang Qiucheng's mind was particularly clear, and he did not blame himself for the suffering of others just because he sympathized with others.

Nor did he feel that he was different from other girls in Xiao Orion's heart just because of Matchmaker Wang's words.

She can carry it clearly, but don't try to fool her.

It's no wonder that Xiao Orion has a hard time finding a wife. Not to mention the mess in his family, his professional characteristics alone are enough to dissuade many people.

The job of a hunter involves extensive outdoor activities, often accompanied by extremely high risks in the process of chasing and hunting wild animals.

To put it bluntly, it means exchanging lives for money. The more expensive the goods, the more lives are wasted.

Snake bones, tiger skins, eagle claws...which one doesn't require a battle of wits and courage, and a fight? Furthermore, when hunting in the mountains, if it is fast, you will leave early and return late. If it is slow, you may not come back if you cannot catch the prey. It is not impossible to go for ten days and a half.

No girl would want to live such a life of widowhood, sitting at home every day and worrying about whether her husband in the mountains can come back safely.

If things go on like this, they will inevitably become physically and mentally exhausted and become prematurely old.

Not to mention that being a hunter is not a bright profession. It is not as stable as farming, and it is not as decent as taking exams. It is usually regarded as a marginalized group and has a relatively low social status.

If you rely on the mountain to live on, if you encounter any natural or man-made disaster, you can only wait for death at home.

As long as they are parents who feel sorry for their daughter, they will definitely not agree to such a marriage. Over time, this Xiao Orion will naturally be unable to marry a wife.

Jiang Qiucheng touched the tip of his nose and yawned a little sleepily.

"Auntie, you have already told me that Xiao Orion's family conditions are not good and his livelihood is not stable. He is really not a good match."

"Then if I really get married, won't I just jump from one fire pit to another?"

"If you want me to tell you, let's forget it..."

Jiang Qiucheng spoke softer and quieter. When he got to the back and saw Matchmaker Wang's downcast face, he swallowed the last few words.

Seeing Jiang Qiucheng's stubborn look, Matchmaker Wang persuaded her earnestly.

"Sister Acheng, don't blame me for telling you. How can you live your life by only looking at the shortcomings? You must also look at other people's advantages."

"Think about it, this Xiao Orion has both parents dead like you, and his grandmother has been in bed all year round. As soon as you get married, you have the right to speak in the family. No one will make things difficult for you, show your face, or set rules. , what a good thing.”

"Also, Mr. Xiao Orion is hard-working, and with your help, his income will definitely increase a lot. After a few years of hard work, he will be able to renovate his house and buy some land. Isn't this life getting better and better?"

"When you get married, ask Orion Xiao to hunt more game for you to replenish your body, gain some fat, and conceive a big fat boy. Oh my god, I can imagine how happy your family will be. .”

It was not even Jiang Qiucheng's turn to interrupt. Matchmaker Wang alone described her future life vividly.

"You have a point."

Jiang Qiucheng first confirmed some of the other party's speculations, but soon, before Matchmaker Wang showed joy, she overturned it again.

"But I don't really need this kind of life."

"Marrying him means that our interests will be tied together, his burden will become my burden, and his responsibility will become my responsibility. Even if I don't want to, I will be forced to bear it. .”

"But if I am alone, even if there is no extra help, there is no extra burden, right?"

"Although negative numbers and zero are both small, there are still some differences in nature."
