In fact, Aunt Wang did not have to say this. However, Zhang Laosan was a well-known good child in the village. He worked quickly and had a good temper. He was willing to lend a helping hand to anyone who needed help. Aunt Wang really could not bear to see such a good child like Zhang Laosan become the son-in-law of the crafty Widow Mu.
As Aunt Wang could not bear to see it happen, she told Zhang Fugui and Li Huiru everything about Widow Mu in advance so that they could see clearly that Widow Mu was not a good person.
In fact, Aunt Wang's words were already very clear. She was almost bluntly telling Zhang Fugui and Li Huiru that Widow Mu was not a good person. If Zhang Laosan were to become her son-in-law, Zhang Laosan would suffer in the future.
However, even if Aunt Wang said it, Zhang Fugui and Li Huiru had to listen to her. If Zhang Fugui and Li Huiru didn't listen to her, it was useless even if Aunt Wang's mouth was broken.
For Zhang Fugui and Li Huiru, they had never thought about how Zhang Fugui would live if he really became Widow Mu's live-in son-in-law. In their opinion, Zhang Laosan was just like their own daughter. A married daughter would belong to someone else's family in the future. It had nothing to do with them.
And Zhang Laosan becoming a son-in-law was almost the same as marrying off a daughter. He had married into someone else's family and had nothing to do with their Family Zhang. They only wanted money. They had no interest in whether Zhang Laosan would live a good life in the future.
Aunt Wang said a lot out of kindness, but Zhang Fugui and Li Huiru did not listen to a single word. Instead, they asked Aunt Wang when she would talk to Widow Mu about Zhang Laosan.
Aunt Wang originally thought that she had made it clear enough, but who knew that both Zhang Fugui and Li Huiru would be like this. After sighing in her heart, she said that she would go and talk to Widow Mu tomorrow.
Their parents were already like this. They did not even feel sorry for their own son. What else could she say?
Early the next morning, Aunt Wang was sweeping the courtyard when Li Huiru walked in and urged her to ask Widow Mu.
Urged by Li Huiru, Aunt Wang hurriedly ate a mouthful of food and went to look for Widow Mu.
Although Widow Mu's husband had been dead for more than half a year, Widow Mu's life was not bad at all. She had all kinds of furniture in her house. Moreover, from the glow on the faces of Widow Mu's family of three, her family was definitely not poor.
After Aunt Wang told Widow Mu about Zhang Laosan's situation in a low voice, she thought for a moment and added, "Zhang Laosan is a little clumsy with his words, but he works hard. He's also a good child and a homebody."
After listening to Aunt Wang's description, Widow Mu thought for a moment and nodded. She said that she would meet Zhang Laosan another day. If he was really as good as Aunt Wang said, then this matter was considered a success.
He even promised to give Aunt Wang a big red packet if she succeeded.
In the past, Aunt Wang would be happy no matter how big the red packets were. But this time, Aunt Wang felt particularly upset. She felt that she had cheated Zhang Laosan, a good boy.
As soon as Aunt Wang returned, Li Huiru went to ask Aunt Wang about the situation. Aunt Wang told Li Huiru everything Widow Mu said.
When Li Huiru saw that Widow Mu agreed, she immediately nodded in agreement. She said that she would go back and talk to Zhang Laosan properly. She promised to come over tomorrow.
The next day, Zhang Laosan was about to go to work in the fields when he was stopped by Zhang Fugui. He said that he had found a partner for him. She was now at Aunt Wang's house and wanted him to meet her.
When he heard that he had found a partner for him, Zhang Fugui's eyelids twitched uncontrollably. He had a bad feeling in his heart.
Zhang Laosan opened his mouth to refuse, but before he could say anything, Li Huiru said, "Don't look unwilling. Don't you know what kind of situation our family is in now? Your father and I are already good enough to find a wife for you. If you dare to not meet her, be prepared to be a bachelor for the rest of your life."
After Li Huiru finished speaking, Zhang Fugui also glared at Zhang Laosan.
Zhang Laosan was not good with words. He did not know how to talk about the matter between him and Jiujiu. He was afraid that no one would believe what he said, so he nodded in agreement. However, he made up his mind that even if he met her, he would firmly shake his head and say that he was not willing. Even if he and Jiujiu did not end up together, just like what Jiujiu said, at least he had tried.
When he thought of the two words' Jiujiu ', Zhang Laosan's heart softened a lot.
Seeing that Zhang Laosan nodded, Zhang Fugui and Li Huiru exchanged a look. They took out the new clothes they had prepared for Zhang Laosan a few days ago and pulled him to change his clothes.
After breakfast, when it was the appointed time, Zhang Fugui and Li Huiru took Zhang Laosan to Aunt Wang's house.
At Aunt Wang's house, Widow Mu had been sitting in the house quietly waiting for Zhang Laosan to come over.
Aunt Wang smiled as she dealt with Widow Mu, but her heart was particularly tormented.
Widow Mu's family background was good, but her temperament was too bad. Her words were particularly harsh and unpleasant. Zhang Laosan, on the other hand, was clumsy with his words. Didn't you see that Zhang Laosan was the one who worked the most in the Zhang family but was the least likable?
If the matter between Zhang Laosan and Widow Mu really happened, Zhang Laosan was afraid that Zhang Laosan would be oppressed.
If it was an old man who was lazy and could not find a wife, Aunt Wang's heart would not feel any pressure at all. However, after this person became a good young man, Zhang Laosan, Aunt Wang's conscience was really a little uneasy. She always felt that she had harmed Zhang Laosan, a good young man.
Just as Aunt Wang was feeling uneasy, someone knocked on the door. Then, she saw Zhang Fugui and Li Huiru walk in with Zhang Laosan.
The moment she saw Zhang Laosan, Widow Mu's eyes instantly widened.
It was not that she had taken a fancy to Zhang Laosan, but Zhang Laosan was strong and young. Just as Aunt Wang said, he was definitely a good worker.
Widow Mu's family did not have anything, but they had a lot of land. If Zhang Laosan came to visit, she would take back the land that she had rented out and leave it for Zhang Laosan to farm. It was definitely a profitable business.
Widow Mu immediately expressed her satisfaction with Aunt Wang. After seeing Widow Mu nod, Zhang Fugui and Li Huiru tugged at Zhang Laosan and asked him to greet Widow Mu.
When Zhang Laosan came in, he saw Widow Mu sitting at the table drinking water. However, Widow Mu was too old. Zhang Laosan couldn't imagine that Widow Mu was the one that Zhang Fugui brought him here for a blind date.
Previously, when people he knew went on blind dates, they said that some girls were shy and would bring their sister-in-law or aunt along to pretend to be brave. Zhang Laosan had always thought that Widow Mu was the sister-in-law that the girl had brought over. Who knew that Zhang Fugui and Li Huiru would pull him over to see Widow Mu.
