The wonderful life of modern women in ancient times

Chapter 293: The Village Chief's Wife and Cao's Random Matchmaking

At Village Chief Chen's house, because there were many people eating lunch today, they were seated at two tables.

The village chief, Lin Dayong, Chen Youfu and Lin Kang sat at one table, and the village chief's wife, Cao, Lin Xi, Yuanyuan, Lin Ping and Lin An sat at another table.

"Sister Lin Xi, eat the chicken leg!"

Yuanyuan put a big chicken leg into Lin Xi's bowl, looked at her with her round eyes, and urged her to eat quickly.

"Yuanyuan, you gave the chicken leg to your sister Lin Xi, what are you going to eat?"

Cao looked at Yuanyuan and asked with fondness.

"Aunt, my mother killed two chickens, and there are three chicken legs left!"

Yuanyuan smiled sweetly, and just as she finished speaking, a big chicken leg was put into her bowl.

She looked up and saw her mother picked out the other three chicken legs and put one in each of her, Lin Ping and Xiao An'er's bowls.

Yuanyuan looked at her mother with a smile and said, "Thank you, mom. I won't be polite!"

The village head's wife chuckled and said, "You kid, when did you become so polite to your mother? I have already made the plan. I will give one chicken leg to each of you four little ones. We still have plenty of chicken to eat!"

After that, he scooped a large spoonful of chicken into Cao's bowl and said with a smile: "Sister, try it quickly. This is the chicken I just raised for five months. The meat is so tender!"

"Isn't it about to start laying eggs? It would be a pity to kill it and make you spend a lot of money, sister-in-law!"

Cao said embarrassedly that there were only six people in their family, and if they hadn't come to eat, the village chief's wife would definitely not kill the chicken.

The village chief's wife laughed heartily and said, "Sisters, what's the pity? As long as you like to eat them, it's fine. If it were in the past, we would definitely not be willing to eat them and would keep them for laying eggs. But now the situation is different. With the help of Miss Lin Xi, we have earned a lot of money. A few days ago, I went to the city and bought a lot of chicks!"

After that, she said to Lin Xi in a generous and generous manner: "Girl Lin Xi, if you want chicken in the future, just tell your aunt and I will kill a chicken for you!"

Hearing her mother's words, Yuanyuan gnawed on a big chicken leg and pouted her greasy lips and said, "Mom, Sister Lin Xi doesn't lack meat to eat. We can hunt prey every day in the mountains. Why don't you bring a jar of your pickled cabbage to Sister Lin Xi? I think Sister Lin Xi likes it!"

After hearing this, Lin Xi immediately agreed, "Yes, Auntie, I really like your pickled spicy cabbage, it's absolutely amazing, you must leave more for me!"

"No problem. There are plenty of cabbages in the garden. I'll pickle some more and ask Yuanyuan to send you one every few days! By the way, it's all thanks to you that you discovered that peppers are edible. I tried to season the pickled cabbages with peppers, and I didn't expect them to taste so good!"

As the village chief's wife spoke, she stood up and put a large piece of spicy cabbage into Lin Xi's bowl, and scooped some meat for Lin Ping and Lin An.

Seeing that she was busy all the time, Cao hurriedly pulled her to sit down and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, don't bother. Just pick up whatever they want to eat. Hurry and eat!"

"Just help yourself to whatever you like, it's just like being at home!"

The village chief's wife looked at Lin Xi's two siblings with a smile and gave them some instructions. Then she sat down and started eating with everyone.

Lin Ping and Lin An had worked all morning and were already very hungry. They kept eating and nodding their heads, and had no time to talk! The village head's wife ate while looking at Yuan Yuan and then at Lin Ping from time to time, her eyes full of smiles.

Lin Kang, who was sitting at the village chief's table, happened to see Yuanyuan. Seeing the cute little girl eating happily, he secretly glanced at her from time to time, and couldn't hide the smile on his face!

His abnormality was noticed by the village chief who was sitting opposite him. The village chief followed his line of sight and saw Yuanyuan who was eating happily with a smile on her face. The village chief secretly looked at Lin Kang and talked to him from time to time, asking this and chatting about that.

Lin Kang suddenly became very nervous, fearing that the village chief would discover his thoughts. He did not dare to look at Yuanyuan. After chatting with the village chief for a while, he concentrated on eating, but not as naturally as before.

Perhaps it was because in his heart, he regarded the village chief as his future father-in-law!

Soon, everyone finished their lunch happily.

After dinner, Cao helped the village chief's wife wash dishes in the kitchen. The village chief and Lin Dayong took the villagers to discuss building a house, while Lin Xi took the children in the village to continue going up the mountain to collect herbs.

"Sister, sister-in-law wants to ask your opinion on something!"

The village head's wife nudged Cao with her arm while washing dishes.

"Sister-in-law, what's the matter?"

Cao put the washed bowl on the stove and asked the village head's wife with a puzzled look on her face.

"What do you think of my Yuanyuan?"

"Yuanyuan is a great little girl. She's cute, likable, smart, and a quick learner. She has so many good qualities!"

When Cao thought of Yuanyuan's cute face with dimples, a smile of fondness appeared on her face.

The village head's wife looked at her expression and felt relieved. She moved closer to her and whispered, "I think your Lin Ping is a good guy. He is about the same age as Yuanyuan. How about we pair these two kids up?"

After hearing this, Cao was very happy and would certainly not refuse.

"Sister-in-law, it's Lin Ping's blessing that you like him. I'd love for you to give Yuanyuan to my Lin Ping. But we should ask the children's opinions in private first. If they like each other, it would be even better. They will live a harmonious life in the future!"

The village chief's wife also loves her children. After listening to what Cao said, she felt that she was very thoughtful.

The two decided to wait until they went back and asked the children, and if the two children were willing, they would settle the matter.

Lin Ping's marriage seemed to be on track, and Cao was secretly happy.

Thinking that Lin Kang, the eldest brother, still had no partner, Cao became worried again and asked the village head's wife if there was a suitable girl to introduce to Lin Kang.

At this moment, she completely forgot that Lin Kang had told her that he liked Yuanyuan!

While washing dishes, the two of them talked to all the girls they knew, and finally decided that Daya was the most suitable.

Cao decided to ask Lin Kang for his opinion after returning. If he agreed, she would ask the village chief's wife to go to Daya's house to sound out the situation.
