Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside-Chapter 1330 - 1332: Chuntao’s Mother’s Worries

Speaking of marriage here, it always follows the mandate of parents and the words of the matchmaker.

Cases where children make their own decisions are still rare.

What Chuntao’s mother says makes complete sense, and Xiaoxiao also thinks the same. If two people can’t mutually like each other, they won’t be happy even if they get together. Therefore, Yang Dong and Li Chuntao’s fate really depends on the two of them.

"Yeah, Aunt Li, you’re right. This matter really needs both of them to like each other. I’ll mention this to my family when I go home in a few days."

"Xiaoxiao, you’ll have to put some effort into this."

As they talked more, Xiaoxiao found Chuntao’s mother to be a likable person. "Aunt Li, what are you talking about? There’s nothing to stress about. If they do become a couple, Chuntao and I will be sisters-in-law in the future."

The two of them talked as they reached the door of Xiaoxiao’s house. Chuntao’s mother laughed, particularly at the mention of sisters-in-law, "Haha, that’s right, then we’d be family on top of family. But Xiaoxiao, you’re not an outsider, so I’ll just say it straight. This matter should remain within us for now. If it doesn’t work out, don’t go spreading it around."

Chuntao’s mother has undoubtedly worried intensely about Chuntao’s marriage. Custom dictates that such matters, being significant, shouldn’t be initiated by the girl’s side. Typically, the girl’s details are given to the matchmaker, then the boy’s side seeks out the matchmaker, who introduces a suitable girl. Alternatively, the boy himself may fancy someone, and the matchmaker would visit the girl’s house.

The Li Family is considered reputable. For them to swallow their pride and inquire shows they truly care for their daughter’s future.

Upon hearing this, Xiaoxiao nodded quickly, "Understood, Aunt Li. Don’t worry, I won’t say a thing."

This is a matter that shouldn’t be mentioned prematurely, especially in such a traditional place. If it’s known that the girl fancies someone, it can lead to criticism, with people saying the girl is shameless and trying to find a man herself.

At Xiaoxiao’s words, Chuntao’s mother was full of smiles, "Alright then, hurry inside and change the child’s clothes. I’ll head back."

"Aunt Li, why don’t you come in and sit for a while?" At the doorstep, Xiaoxiao naturally offered.

"No need, no need. You go in." With that, Chuntao’s mother walked away.

At last, this matter could be mentioned. Her daughter had long shown interest in Xiaoxiao’s younger uncle, and they had wanted to bring this up for a while, wary of prolonged delays, lest the young man ends up engaged.

However, her daughter insisted on waiting until she slimmed down, which forced them to drop the matter.

Now that her daughter had slimmed down, she could finally bring it up, luckily the young man hadn’t proposed yet, giving her daughter a chance.

But... her daughter has gotten so thin? Would the parties involved still be interested?

In Chuntao’s mother’s heart, a plump figure represents wealth and good looks, strong bodies breed well, and such women are fit to bear sons.

But those who are skin-and-bones seem too frail, are they fit to bear children?

Her daughter’s decision couldn’t be overruled, seeing her daughter suffer so greatly, slimming down to a mere chick, her heart ached.

She worried, afraid Xiaoxiao’s younger uncle might not fancy her.

Because of her worries, she dared not even mention in front of Xiaoxiao that her daughter was now slim.

She was insecure, fearing they wouldn’t fancy her daughter’s thin figure, and worried that they might think her daughter had lost weight because of some illness.
