However, no matter whether Jiujiu expressed or hinted, or even indicated that she was a little sleepy, Aunt Wang was like a fool who couldn't understand human language. She continued to talk about her family's affairs, which annoyed Jiujiu to death.
Soon, Li Chungang's seven days passed. Jiujiu took off her plain clothes, but the color of her clothes couldn't be too bright. She could only wear plain cyan or gray. Aunt Wang had been here for more than a month and finally showed her fox tail. This day, when Jiujiu was doing needlework in the yard, Aunt Wang came in with a happy face.
"Big sister, big news! Big news!" Aunt Wang shouted before she came in. When she came in front of Jiujiu, she couldn't help but congratulate, "Congratulations, sister."
No one would approach her for no reason. Furthermore, she had never met Auntie Wang before. Auntie Wang was not an easy person to get along with. Some time ago, whenever she was free, she would come over to get close to her. It would be a lie to say that there was no problem. Now that Auntie Wang was full of smiles, and her mouth was full of joy, Jiujiu knew that Auntie Wang was finally going to say her purpose of getting close to her.
Jiujiu slightly raised the corner of her mouth, with a faint smile on her face. She was busy with her work and said with a smile, "What's the big news?"
Seeing that Jiujiu had taken the bait and asked her what the good news was, Aunt Wang's expression instantly became serious. She subconsciously turned her head and looked around. When she found that there was no one else, she tiptoed and closed the door. Her guilty look made Jiujiu even more certain that what Aunt Wang said was definitely not something good.
"Aunt Wang, what do you mean?" Jiujiu pretended to be confused and looked at Aunt Wang.
When Auntie Wang heard Jiujiu's question, she quickly lowered her voice and whispered into Jiujiu's ear, "Sister, you're so beautiful. Have you ever thought about remarrying?"
There was nothing shameful about remarrying here.
What's more, although Jiujiu and Li Chungang were married, the two had never met before the wedding. On the third day of the wedding, Li Chungang was gone. Although Jiujiu was a widow in name, she was a virgin on the inside.
Those who couldn't find a wife were even willing to remarry, not to mention Jiujiu who was so beautiful. Moreover, Li Chungang had always been doing business outside. Although he didn't know how much wealth his family had outside, he knew that Li Chungang's family wasn't thin just by looking at his big courtyard and the extravagance of his wedding. If he married Jiujiu, Li Chungang's family wealth would be his.
Therefore, there were many people who had designs on Jiujiu. However, as Li Chungang had just passed away and was especially concerned about his reputation, many people were prepared to talk to Jiujiu after Li Chungang's first anniversary. It was a first for people like Auntie Wang to come over and ask Jiujiu if she wanted to remarry after the seventh day of Li Chungang's death.
Jiujiu was originally thinking about why Aunt Wang had been looking for her. She just thought that Aunt Wang wanted to borrow money. After all, Aunt Wang's family shop had lost a lot of money these days. She didn't expect that Aunt Wang didn't want to borrow money from her, but asked her to remarry.
Jiujiu sneered. She was especially disdainful in her heart, but on the surface, she had a smile: "Aunt Wang, what do you mean?"
When Aunt Wang saw that Jiujiu was talking to her, she thought that Jiujiu was interested, so she said in detail: "In Ling 'an Town, there is a famous philanthropist named Li Gui. This person is both civil and martial, and has a deep friendship with the county magistrate. Moreover, he is handsome and elegant, and his face is first-class. Younger sister, don't blame me for talking too much. Younger sister, with such a beautiful face, do you really want to mourn for Li Chungang for the rest of your life? When you are old, how will you live without children? After listening to elder sister's words, rather than mourning for Li Chungang, it would be better to follow Great Philanthropist Li. Great Philanthropist Li is famous for being protective of the fairer sex. With younger sister's appearance, if you stay with Great Philanthropist Li, he will definitely love and dote on you. He will guarantee that you will enjoy endless glory and wealth for the rest of your life.
Aunt Wang wanted to heap all the praises on Li Gui. Her expression and words were especially flattering.
Lu Xiu 'an had just been widowed, and she was given a chastity memorial arch. Therefore, Aunt Wang did not approach Lu Xiu' an to persuade her to remarry.
However, Jiujiu was different. Jiujiu directly fell out with the Lu family, so they had no reason to give her a chastity memorial arch. Therefore, Aunt Wang came to persuade her to remarry.
Jiujiu really did not expect that Auntie Wang would approach her to ask her to remarry. She was disgusted and her perfunctory attitude instantly turned cold. Jiujiu's face darkened as she looked at Auntie Wang and said, "Auntie Wang, what do you mean by this? My husband's body is not even cold yet and you're advising me to remarry. If my husband knew about this in the underworld, I'm afraid that he would go and talk to you tonight."
Li Chungang had just passed seven days. Jiujiu suddenly said such words. Aunt Wang shuddered. Her body could not help but tremble. However, thinking of the money that Li Gui promised to give her and the serious loss of her family's business, even if she was frightened by Jiujiu's words, Aunt Wang still suppressed her fear and said, "Younger sister, don't try to scare me. I've lived for so many years and have seen everything. Even if your husband is dead, even if he is here, I will still say this. Younger sister, with your beauty, you can definitely find a good marriage. Why do you want to stay here so stubbornly? Listen to Aunt Wang, don't be so stubborn. Otherwise, when you are old, you will regret it. "
Jiujiu sneered, "Auntie Wang's words really sound better than singing. Although I haven't studied for many days and don't know much about great principles, I understand what it means to be faithful to one until death. Moreover, even if I want to remarry, I have to wait until I finish mourning for my husband. Auntie Wang is so eager to act as a matchmaker. I can't help but suspect that Li Gui has given you some benefits. Otherwise, why would you put in so much effort to speak up for him?"
Jiujiu glanced sideways at Aunt Wang. Aunt Wang subconsciously shrank her head because of a guilty conscience. When she reacted, she looked up at Jiujiu. Jiujiu raised the corner of her mouth and her eyes were full of sarcasm. She sneered and said, "Aunt Wang, please leave. Don't come again in the future."
Aunt Wang tried her best but failed to persuade Jiujiu. She thought that Jiujiu had a very good relationship with Jiujiu since she came every day. Now, it seemed that Jiujiu had never treated her as a friend. Aunt Wang was not magnanimous. Now that she lost face in front of Jiujiu, she was extremely angry. She looked at Jiujiu as if she wanted to eat Jiujiu alive.
Aunt Wang had just walked out of the door when Jiujiu closed the door. Aunt Wang was so angry that she fiercely stomped her feet.
She cursed in her heart that she didn't know what was good for her. Li Gui's family had countless treasures. Any one of them would be enough for Lv Xiu 'an to use for a lifetime. But this woman didn't know what was good for her and didn't appreciate it.
