Kuaiwen: I earn a pension by breaking through the game
Chapter 75 Women don’t have to marry
It was obvious that she was very unhappy in her heart, but because of her immediate interests, she had to compromise and make fun of the situation.
Haha, Jiang Qiucheng sneered in his heart. Eyes are indeed the windows to the human soul. No matter how well disguised they are, those eyes cannot be completely avoided.
After a few words of greeting, the woman immediately changed the subject and said.
"Although my cousin doesn't live near here, she has heard of the reputation of Matchmaker Wang and knows that she is the most powerful matchmaker in the country. Naturally, the marriages she facilitates will not go wrong."
"A Cheng, are you reluctant to nod and agree because you are worried about the family? It's okay. Earlier you had no one to entrust. Now that my cousin is here, you can leave it to me."
"Well, there is no one else in this family. Once you leave, this house will be empty. Although the house is a little dilapidated, it is still a shelter from wind and rain. It also occupies a piece of land underneath. My cousin will give me some shelter. If you clean things up neatly, it will be easier for you to make other plans in the future."
"Um...and that...my cousin heard earlier that you have several fields behind your house. Why don't you give it to your cousin to take care of it too? When the time comes to grow fruits and vegetables, I can also give you some. ,dont you agree?"
When she mentioned houses and fields, the woman's eyebrows showed a bit of joy, and she even spoke faster.
How could someone put their greed out there so openly?
Jiang Qiucheng looked at the woman's exaggerated expression and couldn't help but cursed.
Seeing that Jiang Qiucheng remained silent, the woman continued to add without giving up.
"A Cheng, in short, don't worry about these trivial matters at home. Just leave it to your cousin. We are all a family. Don't you still believe it?"
"After you get married, if you feel homesick, you can come back and visit at any time without delaying things."
This sounds nice to say. Now this house and this land can still be regarded as hers, but if she really gets married, I'm afraid that as soon as she steps out, the few things left in the house will be emptied by others. .
If it's later, he will change his appearance and have nothing to do with her anymore.
She is just an orphan, and in the eyes of these people, it is only a matter of minutes. How can she really think about what will happen in the future?
Jiang Qiucheng knew this very well. No matter what she did in the future or where she would go, the things in her hands could never be snatched away in vain by others.
"Cousin, right? Acheng remembers you."
Hearing this, the smile on the woman's lips became more obvious, along with a few more wrinkles at the corners of her eyes.
But before she could express her joyful response, which was stuck in her throat, she heard Jiang Qiucheng speak again.
"I remember my grandmother told me when she was still alive that a cousin married into the village next door. The harvest at home was not good earlier, and she came to us to borrow food. Oh, by the way, she seemed to have taken it with her. I bought an old hen and said I wanted to take it back to lay eggs."
"At that time, my grandmother was still in good health and could still work in the fields. The family also had a surplus of grains and fruits, so she helped him. The other party also said earlier that once the harvest was good, he would sell the things with profit. When he comes back, he wants to give us another big goose! But so many years have passed in the blink of an eye, and not only have the goose feathers not been seen, but even the things we borrowed have not been returned."
"Cousin, I have a bad memory. I don't know if the cousin my grandma mentioned is you. I think so. After all, I don't remember the other cousins. So you came here today with the intention of returning the money you borrowed. Food, can you give me some dowry by the way?"
Jiang Qiucheng's tone was sincere, and his expression was pure and serious, as if he was just stating a very ordinary trivial matter, completely ignoring the woman's slightly embarrassed expression.
The woman's eyes were evasive, as if she was quickly searching for memories, trying to find relevant memories.
After a moment, she defended somewhat unnaturally. "Ouch, why do you have such a bad memory at such a young age? When did I borrow any food from your family? It must have been a long time, and you remembered that it was probably another cousin of yours."
"Although our family's life is not very rich, it is still enjoyable. We have enough food and clothing. There is no need to borrow food. You must have remembered it wrong."
While the woman was stumbling and talking, she stretched out her hand to tuck the loose hair around her temples, seemingly "accidentally" revealing the thin gold bracelet on her wrist.
Matchmaker Wang has always been very keen on these yellow and white things. When she saw the other party showing wealth, she put her head in to take a look.
Realizing that it was just a bluff to prop up the scene, he curled his lips with some disdain, and there was a bit of contempt in his eyes.
What he said was unnatural and confusing, and he was still making sophistry.
I thought I was already wicked enough by tricking an ignorant girl into marrying someone to earn money as a matchmaker, but I didn't expect that I also met the relative of the other party who planned to eat her up. It was really a combination of dragon and phoenix.
With the reference, Matchmaker Wang felt that she was not too evil, and the money was not so hot.
Seeing the other party's unnatural expression, Jiang Qiucheng felt very funny in his heart.
In fact, there was no such thing as what she said. It was just a lie that she had just made up in a hot-tempered way.
She would say this just to deceive the other party.
According to the nature of the other party's behavior, it is obvious that he has done many things to take advantage of her. Otherwise, he would not be such a thief. He went through several villages to take advantage of her, an orphan girl.
She probably came here today with the intention of persuading Jiang Qiucheng to marry, but she happened to meet Matchmaker Wang. Although their purposes were different, their actions inadvertently coincided with each other.
Judging from the woman's reaction, she obviously felt guilty.
In fact, she didn't remember anything in her mind. She just did a lot of immoral things on weekdays, and she didn't know what she was doing.
Jiang Qiucheng didn't have to prove anything that didn't exist in the first place. In order not to make the matter worse, she promptly handed the other party a step.
"Oh, maybe I've misremembered it. I can't tell if it's another cousin."
Hearing this, the woman breathed a sigh of relief, her chest and back straightened up again, and her eyes were no longer so resistant when facing Matchmaker Wang.
"Harm, I just said it, you must have misunderstood, and it was an own goal."
"But Acheng, my cousin came today with some news. If you are not satisfied with the person recommended by Matchmaker Wang, why not listen to my introduction?"
The woman smiled slightly flatteringly, obviously expecting Jiang Qiucheng's reaction.
Matchmaker Wang on the side listened and stared alertly, looking a little displeased.
Good guy, why did you come here to grab business if you were not careful? !
