From Folly to Fortune：I Rewrite My Life After Rebirth!-Chapter 932 - 928: (Third Update)

After waiting for a long time, there was no sign of Mr. Mu continuing the conversation.

Everyone was anxious.

"Dad, you were just talking about Xiangxiang’s marriage, what’s going on?" Mu Dazhong asked curiously.

"What’s going on, it’s none of your business, I, as the old lady, haven’t agreed to the Sun family’s proposal yet."

Old Mrs. Mu rolled her eyes at Mu Dazhong and said irritably.

Mr. Mu’s face darkened. He hadn’t intended to bring it up, but he answered Mu Dazhong’s question anyway.

"Back then, I agreed with your mother that if we wanted Xiangxiang to come out to have New Year’s Eve dinner, we had to agree to Matchmaker Sun’s nephew, Sun Dali’s proposal.

Just as it happens, there’s not much going on at home recently, it’s time to consider Xiangxiang’s marriage. Once she gets married, we can find a good wife for Fifth as well."

Time waits for no one, as we age, we have to marry and have children.

In the entire Old Mu Family, those who remain unmarried in their later years are just two people, Mu Dandan and Mu Yingying, but they are different, with a scholar father and possibly a future champion scholar.

They are proper rich ladies, easily able to marry landlords and the sons of big landowners.

"Pfft... Sun Dali? That fat pig? Hahaha, Dad, did I hear you right, how could you push Xiangxiang into the fire pit?

With such a heavy man, won’t he crush Xiangxiang to death on the wedding night?" As soon as Mu Dazhong heard Sun Dali’s name, he covered his mouth and couldn’t stop laughing.

Mr. Mu’s face went from black to white, then turned red.

He was almost furious.

He shouted loudly: "You’re full of crap! Do you know Xiangxiang’s situation? A lunatic, which wealthy man would marry her?

And have you forgotten how your wife’s hair on the back of her head is gone? Xiangxiang eats enough for five adults in one meal, who can afford her?

Now Sun Dali isn’t looking down on Xiangxiang, that’s her blessing. I’ve already discussed with Matchmaker Sun to set the marriage once the two kids meet."

Mr. Mu’s words were cutting, making Mu Dazhong want to bite his tongue off.

Why was I so careless in saying good words for that damned girl?

Why should he care about that damned girl’s life or death?

"Dad, I understand my mistake, it’s not... I was just worried about Xiangxiang being wronged! Besides, with Xiangxiang getting married, I’m too happy as the second brother to even think of opposing it," Mu Dazhong chuckled.

"Dad, you really found a good match for Xiangxiang, that boy is hardworking," Mrs. Lin laughed along.

Originally, discussing Mu Xiangxiang’s marriage was reasonable for them to give opinions, but this action angered Old Mrs. Mu.

She stood up swiftly and yelled at Mu Dazhong and Mrs. Lin: "Who do you two think you are? Why do you think you can talk about Xiangxiang’s marriage?

If Sun Dali is so good, then let Qing get married to him, she can serve him like a horse."

As soon as Old Mrs. Mu finished speaking, Mu Qingqing at the neighboring table dropped her chopsticks with a ’clank’ onto the ground, she whimpered twice and started to cry: "Grandma, I won’t marry Sun Dali, I won’t marry..."

Since connecting with Mrs. Liu from the town, Mu Qingqing hadn’t shown a fearful expression in a long time. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

But this time, she was scared.

In Old Mu Family, a single word from any elder could easily decide her fate.

Just like back when others wanted to marry Mu Shuangshuang to that crippled old man Wang San.

She didn’t want this fate, she did not...

Mu Qingqing’s agitation made Old Mrs. Mu even angrier: "You little brat, is marrying someone a matter where you say you won’t get married and that’s it?

I, as the old lady, insist on marrying you to Sun Dali, what can you do about it?"

Old Mrs. Mu’s tone was extremely arrogant, as if saying she would marry Mu Qingqing to Sun Dali, that tone was as casual as saying she’d squash an ant.

At this moment, Mu Qingqing suddenly resented the Old Mu Family, hated the other members of the Old Mu Family.

Hated them for so easily deciding her marriage.

"I would rather die than marry!" Mu Qingqing, with red eyes, said this and then ran out.

Mrs. Lin stopped eating, and followed after her, shouting.

"Qingqing, mom won’t let you marry Sun Dali, if we’re going to marry, it’ll be to Liu Zian, don’t go..."

When Mrs. Lin came out, Mu Shuangshuang happened to be in the yard drying quilts.

In the spring sunshine, it was a warm midday, after drying the quilts, the bed would be warm at night.

She heard the words from Mrs. Lin’s mouth and chuckled softly, then continued patting the quilt.

Yu Si Niang was feeding pigs in the yard, hearing her daughter’s laughter, couldn’t help but ask: "Shuangshuang, what are you laughing about?"

Mu Shuangshuang shook her head: "Nothing!"

Mrs. Lin wasn’t wrong in thinking that marrying Liu Zian was better than Sun Dali.

But from the sounds of it, the people of Old Mu Family were planning to marry Mu Qingqing to Sun Dali?

It shouldn’t be, the Sun family doesn’t have much money, with just a few acres of land, considering Old Mu Family’s current status, they wouldn’t take notice of it, Sun Dali’s family also doesn’t have much of a connection in the village.

The only face they have is that Sun Dali is a relative of Matchmaker Sun.

But after all, he’s just a relative, not a son, no matter how much wealth Matchmaker Sun has, she wouldn’t give it to Sun Dali.

Mu Shuangshuang shook her head, deciding not to think about it.

On the contrary, Yu Si Niang came closer, seemingly still curious about what had just happened.

Mu Shuangshuang briefly mentioned what she overheard, Yu Si Niang also looked quite surprised.

She and Mu Shuangshuang had similar thoughts, thinking this seemed unlikely.

"If Auntie married Sun Dali, I might believe it, after all, in the eyes of the villagers, she’s a madwoman abandoned by her fiancé, who almost hurt someone."

Mu Shuangshuang said casually, unexpectedly hitting the mark.

"By the way, Shuangshuang, your Uncle Six sent a message saying they would spend the Lantern Festival at our place, bringing your grandparents along, and told you to prepare more dumplings, and that bean sprouts too, your grandma has been talking about it for a long time."

Mu Shuangshuang smiled slightly, and in front of Yu Si Niang, she counted the days to the Lantern Festival.

Four days left.

There’s enough time to sprout the beans, and if we prepare some good food, we can treat the family well that day.

When her grandparents arrive, she’ll give them the bean sprouting method, so they won’t have to keep thinking about it.

"Mom, I understand, Shuangshuang will handle it. If there’s nothing else, I’ll go find Fengzi."

As soon as Mu Shuangshuang mentioned Fengzi, Yu Si Niang looked at her and smiled.

As if hinting at a little secret between Mu Shuangshuang and Lu Yuanfeng.

Mu Shuangshuang also smiled, though her smile carried a hint of shyness.

"Mom, Fengzi didn’t come over this morning, and he didn’t come for lunch, I’ll go see if he went to the mountains." Mu Shuangshuang explained awkwardly.

Yu Si Niang gave a knowing look and urged, "You better hurry, and while you’re at it, check on how the private school is doing, your father said it might be finished in a few days!"
