Disaster Apocalypse: Farming, Family, and My Hidden Secret Space-Chapter 509: Burning Incense for Good Luck

Moreover, he’s willing to go all out for a wife. These days, he’s been pleasing their family quite a bit, even the kids who just learned to walk like him a lot.

After much consideration, both Old Lady Hua and Mrs. Qi are most satisfied with Luo Song. This guy has a simple family background, good character, and, more importantly, he’s handsome and elegant, the type Jin’er is fond of judging by her inclination to look at faces.

But it’s fine to look at other young men too, to broaden the child’s choices.

Regardless of whether Hua Jin has left, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law started their discussion in the room quite openly, making it impossible for Hua Jin to keep listening halfway through. To outsiders, it might seem like grandma and mom are discussing whose cabbage is growing better.

Returning to her room, Hua Jin realized something was off. If they’re comparing cabbages, wouldn’t that make her a pig? She was immediately amused and exasperated.

She shook her head and let these things go, knowing that her mom and grandma could arrange everything well for her. At worst, she’d just be a tool person—meet, face, and get matched.

Well, it’s a novel experience, a first in her two lifetimes combined, just take it as an opportunity to get to know the young men in the village anew.

Old Lady Hua swiftly divulged the news of selecting a husband for her beloved granddaughter while chatting with Old Lady Lin and Old Lady Li. Within a day, every household in the village knew about it.

Consequently, many families sighed and expressed that the village chief finally decided to find a husband for their family’s precious gem.

Households with self-assured young men of similar ages couldn’t sit still anymore.

Who doesn’t know or recognize the village chief’s granddaughter? Her looks, needless to say, are unmatched by any girl in the village, and even in the town or county, they hadn’t seen anyone surpass the village chief’s granddaughter.

If it weren’t for Hua Jin’s brother and younger brother fiercely protecting her, plus the village chief’s intimidating mustache, who would dare flirt with her casually? Also, they wouldn’t dare, mainly because they couldn’t beat Hua Jin. Just this makes many young men unable to lift their heads; otherwise, they would be hanging around the village chief’s doorstep every day.

Now, finally hearing that the village chief’s granddaughter is choosing a husband, they don’t have to worry anymore, and families with sons of similar ages can’t sit still.

As the only matchmaker in the village, the threshold of Old Lady Sun’s house was once again worn thin.

You can see how sought-after Hua Jin is. Who doesn’t know that Hua Jin is the village chief’s precious gem, cherished like a sweet bun, where the dowry would absolutely be substantial, and this girl herself is capable. Who wouldn’t want such a wife?

Old Lady Sun sent away wave after wave of people, her mouth almost blistered from speaking, and even constant water drinking couldn’t relieve the dryness of her throat.

All day, people kept coming, and she finally got some time in the evening after sending them away, rushing to the village chief’s house.

"Old sister... old sister..." Old Lady Sun called out, knocking on Hua Family’s door, greeted by several barking sounds.

Thankfully, she knew these big dogs looked fierce but didn’t bite, and as long as you were let in, there was no problem. Old Lady Sun wasn’t afraid. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

"Big Black, it’s a friend, don’t bark," Old Lady Sun softly called to the dogs behind the door.

It worked, and the threatening sounds noticeably reduced.

"Oh, it’s Daniu’s mom, please come in..."

Hearing the familiar voice outside, Old Lady Hua knew who it was, as she’d been expecting it, stopped her eldest grandson from opening the door himself, and didn’t forget to call the dogs aside. Though they don’t bite, they still look pretty intimidating late at night.

Hearing Old Lady Hua’s voice, Old Lady Sun let go of her anxiety, responded happily, and entered, warmly following Old Lady Hua into the main room, accompanied by a few big dogs. Only, once inside, the dogs circled the door a few times and scattered.

Each time, Old Lady Sun couldn’t help but sigh about how the village chief’s family’s dogs really were the best for guarding the house, but... they looked down on the village’s dogs.

"Aunt Sun is here," Mrs. Qi also came out after hearing the commotion, smiling broadly at Old Lady Sun, exchanging pleasantries, "Welcome, welcome, Aunt, let me go make tea."

Old Lady Sun: "Yun Ao’s mom, don’t bother, I’ve had some at home."

Old Lady Hua sat Old Lady Sun down, smiling, "It’s just a few firewood, sis, coming over this late, is it..."

Old Lady Hua was playing dumb, but chatting is all about this kind of talk, nobody rushes to spell things out.

"Of course there’s something" Old Lady Sun said, holding her old sister’s hand with a warm expression.

"Old sister, I won’t beat around the bush with you. You wouldn’t believe, today my house’s threshold was nearly worn out again."

"What happened?" Old Lady Hua remained calm and composed, nonchalantly throwing out two words.

Old Lady Sun barely resisted rolling her eyes, typical village chief’s wife, she couldn’t match that composure.

If Old Lady Hua hadn’t released the news deliberately, who in the village would dare spread it randomly? Unless they had itchy skin.

Old Lady Hua and her daughter-in-law might seem gentle usually, but their fighting strength was formidable.

"Old sister, don’t tease me, I don’t believe you didn’t catch the gossip circulating in the village" Old Lady Sun cut straight to the point.

"What..." Old Lady Hua feigned ignorance.

"Oh my, old sister, I won’t engage in tongue-twisters anymore. You don’t understand, I didn’t even have time to breathe all day. Tell me the truth, are you really discussing marriage for our Jin’er?"

At this moment, Mrs. Qi entered with the tea "Aunt, have some water" then promptly sat beside her.

Without being pretentious, Old Lady Sun eagerly took a few gulps of water, then focused her attention back on Old Lady Hua.

"Old sister..." she prompted.

Old Lady Hua chuckled, "Why rush, you haven’t finished the water yet."

"So it’s real" Seeing the look on Old Lady Hua’s face, Old Lady Sun steadied herself, her own face breaking into a smile, and she drank the rest of the water.

She savored it for a moment; truth be told, the tea tasted pretty good, unlike the tea residue they had at home. Although it had taste, it was scratchy, not many households had even that.

"There’s indeed such a plan" Old Lady Hua also picked up the tea prepared by her daughter-in-law, sipping slowly, eyeing Old Lady Sun.

Since the news was out, they were at home waiting for Old Lady Sun. Originally, they thought it would take a couple of days, but she arrived faster than expected.

Old Lady Sun quickly glanced at Mrs. Qi beside her, seeing she wasn’t anxious, realizing it was a joint decision between the mother and daughter-in-law, she felt relieved.

Then she couldn’t hold back any longer and hurried closer to Old Lady Hua, "Old sister, did you and Yun Ao’s mom have anyone in mind? Let me know, so I have some idea, avoiding anyone shameless thinking they can marry above their status."

The last sentence resonated deeply with Old Lady Hua, nodding in agreement.

In her heart, anyone aiming for her granddaughter was indeed that shameless.

Her beloved granddaughter was wonderful, not saying her beauty could topple kingdoms, but she’s rarely beautiful. Though from a rural family, a little dressing up reveals an elegance that doesn’t lose to daughters of prominent families. Most importantly, she has great fortunes.

In her eyes, anyone her beloved granddaughter fancies must have ancestors who burned incense in gratitude.
