Chapter 472: 472: No Girl Dares to Marry Tong Sanlang Anymore
As she pondered on Qiao Xiaomai’s words based on this thought, the situation became clear to her quickly.
Qiao Xiaomai intended to marry Tong Sanlang, but she was facing resistance.
Or more accurately said, Qiao Xiaomai was apprehensive about the Zhang Family and Zhu Hongyun.
She blamed herself, considering how she had bombarded Zhu Hongyun with all those negative remarks about Qiao Xiaomai. Now, she had to make up for this to secure her relationship with Qiao Xiaomai.
When she went back home, she deliberated earnestly about this situation. Eventually, she came up with a solution: to propose a marriage to Tong Sanlang.
Zhang Family and Zhu Hongyun might have a deep-seated prejudice against Qiao Xiaomai, but Qiao Xiaomai had undeniable status as the top figure in Anping Village. She would use this marriage proposition to provoke Zhu Hongyun and the Zhang Family.
Last night, she visited Zhu Hongyun again and subtly probed her opinions on Qiao Xiaomai.
Zhu Hongyun was feeling frustrated these days and, given the prompt, vented out all her grievances unceasingly.
Having confirmed Zhu Hongyun’s standpoint, she revealed her true intention. “If you dislike Qiao Xiaomai so much, how about letting Sanlang marry my daughter Ying?”
“Huh?” Zhu Hongyun was taken aback.
“My Ying might not be as beautiful as Qiao Xiaomai, but she is caring, obedient, and would never dare to talk back to her elders. Sanlang is not getting any younger. You can’t expect him to wait forever, can you?”
“Hmm?” Zhu Hongyun furrowed her brows.
Marry Tong Sanlang to Qiao Ying?
How could that be possible!
Considering Zhu Hongyun’s living conditions, it was certain that it would be like inviting burdens into her home.
Their home was already too poor. If they brought another burden, wouldn’t they become even poorer?
Besides, Qiao Ying was a sly girl. If she really marries into their family, she would definitely incite Sanlang to drift apart from them.
Right now, Sanlang was willing to help them. But once Qiao Ying gets married here, then in the future, the money that Sanlang makes from hunting may all go into Qiao Ying’s purse.
Moreover, Sanlang is skilled in Kung Fu, he could easily prepare a private meal for Qiao Ying!
Seeing her reaction, Zhu Cuiying chuckled inwardly while tried to make her reason, “What’s wrong? You don’t like my Ying? Hongyun, let me tell you, right now your family assets are confiscated, and you are somehow descendants of a none-to-be-named Wang, this is something you have stirred up, and in the eyes of ordinary people, it’s a big issue. ”
“If the Emperor takes notice of this in the future and issues a decree against you, your family is done for.”
“Under such circumstances, which girl would willingly leap into this firepit? Only my Ying, with her deep affection and loyalty to Sanlang, is willing to take this risk and marry into your family.” Zhu Cuiying painstakingly tried to help Zhu Hongyun see the reality.
Being descendants of rebels whose assets were confiscated by the Emperor, if it weren’t for the fact that Tong Tiehu was still the Village Chief, people in the village would’ve cut ties with the Tong Family long ago.
Under these circumstances, no matter how outstanding Tong Sanlang is, very few girls would dare to marry him.
Their home was in such a state and they were still in a fantasy, tut.
Zhu Hongyun’s face darkened as she listened to this, “My grandfather said as long as we live quietly and cause no trouble, the Emperor will not harm us.”
“Oh girl, your family knows that, but outsiders don’t know, to them your family is just like what I just described, no girl dares to marry into your family anymore! Sanlang is not getting any younger, you don’t really want him to stay single for the rest of his life, do you?”
