Mind reading, taking the rental house through the whole village crying

Chapter 758 Climbing a high branch

"Brother, you misunderstood. Brother Jiang Qi was worried that I would be hit by the stones, so he was too anxious and didn't pay attention..."

"Bullshit, he just has his eyes on you! This kid has no good intentions. What else did he do in the alley just now?" Liu Yunhai interrupted her.

The two families have known each other for such a long time, it is not an exaggeration to say that he watched Jiang Tongxiang grow up.

They are all men, how could he not know what this boy is thinking?

His sister is so beautiful and gentle, who would not like her unless they are blind?

Liu Yunhai was particularly angry, but not because his sister was being targeted.

Rather, he felt that his sister was taken advantage of, and he was even angrier because that person was his best friend's younger brother.

We are all acquaintances, I can’t even scold you.

If it were someone else, he would have started beating him up a long time ago.

If you really like her, you should just go and propose to her. Rejection is another matter. It is simply outrageous to make advances before the two of you have even started dating.

"What's wrong? You went out to play happily, but why did you come back so angry?" Liu Xinlan's sister-in-law, Mrs. Bai, heard the voice, walked out of the house and asked.

"Watch Xinlan from now on and don't let her go out. Even if she wants to go out, you go with her." Liu Yunhai spoke in such a stern tone for the first time because he was afraid that his sister would be taken away by Jiang Tongxiang and get hurt.

"Tsk, why are you so mean to your sister? Xinlan, come here and tell me what happened just now."

The brother and sister's biological mother, Mrs. Li, also came over after hearing the noise. Seeing that her daughter's eyes were red because of what her son said, she frowned and glared at her son.

Then he waved to his daughter.

Liu Xinlan walked over obediently, sniffed, and then explained in a low voice; "It was the eldest brother who misunderstood. Just now, the seventh brother of the Jiang family set off fireworks, but he was deceived. The fireworks he bought turned out to be firecrackers. I guess mother must have heard it. The firecrackers flew into the sky and stones fell, hitting a servant on the forehead and making a big bump.

We were all scared. Jiang's Seventh Brother was afraid that I would get hurt, so he quickly pulled me to the alley and hid. Fubao followed us, and the three of us were together. After the firecrackers were set off, we went out. Jiang's Seventh Brother didn't do anything, but my eldest brother insisted that he had bad intentions. It was obviously his own guess, and he didn't even ask clearly before accusing Jiang's Seventh Brother. "

Liu Xinlan felt very aggrieved.

Li was stunned when she heard her daughter's words, but she soon spoke again.

"I see. But Lan'er, you know that you are a woman, and a woman's reputation is more important than a man's. Fortunately, there were no strangers around when you set off the fireworks. If those women with bad mouths saw it, you would not be able to keep your reputation.

Who in the decent families of Lianshan Town would marry someone with a bad reputation like you? You will have to marry someone else. Can you bear to leave your parents, your elder brother and his wife, and your nephews? Your mother has kept you until now because she wants to find a good family for you, so that you can live happily in your mother's home for the rest of your life. Your brother is also doing this for your own good."

Fearing that the brother and sister would have conflicts, as their mother, she mediated between them. Not only that, she also broke down the reasons and explained them to her daughter.

"Mother, I know what's going on. I know it, but Brother Jiang Qi is not a bad person. I hope you and Big Brother don't misunderstand him. There is really nothing between him and me."

Liu Xinlan has always been obedient. Although her mother said so, she still spoke up for Jiang Tongxiang.

"Well, mother knows that you are sensible. This matter has passed. Don't mention it again in the future. But you are not young anymore. After the New Year, your sister-in-law and I will start to help you find a husband. We will definitely find a good one for you, preferably one close to our home, so that mother can often see you. When you get pregnant in the future, mother can also find an excuse to take care of you."

I have to say that Mrs. Li really loves this daughter.

She even considered the lack of shadow.

"Mom, if we talk about proximity, which family is closer than the one next door? We have all seen those boys in the Jiang family. They are all very good. Even the most playful fifth brother of the Jiang family has changed a lot after getting married. He has become much more stable. It's better to..." Bai's words were interrupted.

"No, what's the point of asking for marriage? He touched my sister's hand, and we are still begging Xinlan to marry him? I would rather support Xinlan for the rest of my life. I won't get married, and I will support you."

Liu Yunhai thought his wife wanted to marry his sister to Jiang Tongxiang.

He was still angry, how could he agree?

The tone was as cold as ice.

"I haven't finished talking yet, please let me finish. Why not pair Xinlan with the Jiang family's sixth son? He is so knowledgeable. I heard that Principal Dong said privately that the Jiang family's sixth son will definitely pass the imperial examination if he takes the exam next time. Then, won't our Xinlan be the wife of a juren in the future?"

You have to know that the Liu family is just a merchant family. If their son-in-law is a juren, their family's status will be much higher.

Change the situation instantly.

Although the seventh son of the Jiang family is a good person, he himself has no achievements.

Still not as good as the sixth son of the Jiang family.

Bai also sincerely cared about her sister-in-law, hoping that she would marry a good husband and transform from a sparrow into a phoenix on a branch.

She had seen the sixth son of the Jiang family countless times. He was polite and handsome. It could be said that he had everything she wanted. Many families with daughters in the city were eyeing this piece of fat meat.

She also set her eyes on her sister-in-law. She was so pretty, liked reading, could write and draw. It could be said that she was good at everything, including playing the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Even her embroidery skills were better than hers.

What's wrong with marrying the sixth son of the Jiang family?

It's nothing more than that the husband's family has a higher status, which is considered as marrying up the social ladder.

But my sister-in-law has the best temper and will definitely be able to get along well with the Jiang family.

"That won't work. The sixth boy of the Jiang family is indeed good, but because he is too good, he is not a good match for Xinlan. I just want her to marry into a good family. I don't ask her to marry high. Even if her future in-laws are lower than ours, it's fine. At most, we can help her and give her more dowry. In this way, we can still protect Xinlan, and her in-laws won't dare bully her.

Besides, the sixth boy of the Jiang family will not stop at being a juren. He is still so young, maybe he will become a jinshi in the future. What if he stays in the imperial city? Xinlan will have to go too, and then we, mother and daughter, will never see each other again. If I go to the imperial city, I will worry about you, and if I don't go, I will worry about her. It's not okay. Don't mention this matter anymore. I don't agree."

Li immediately rejected her daughter-in-law's proposal.

Bai finally came to her senses and said with guilt.

"I'm sorry, mother. I haven't thought it through. You're right. Xinlan is not suitable for him. Although Xinlan is also very good, I can't bear to let her marry far away. Not to mention Jinshi, in fact, Juren can also become an official. Officials cannot stay in their hometowns, so they are destined to be far away from us. I will go back to my mother's house tomorrow to see if there is anyone suitable."
