Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let's Farm - Chapter 480
Chapter 480: Chapter 480 Our Family Can’t Marry into a Higher Social Status
“She doesn’t like her?!” Zhang Family’s eyes widened, astonished.
“Mm, she doesn’t.” Tong Sanlang nodded, picked up the book again and started reading. His tone was indifferent.
Seeing this, Zhang Family snatched the book from his hands, “If you don’t like her, why do you help her so diligently?”
“Grandpa is the Village Chief. It’s my duty to assist if Grandpa orders me to.” Tong Sanlang looked at Zhang Family after his book was taken away. His expression and tone were indifferent.
“During those times you assisted her, why did you embrace her?! How come I never see you embrace other girls?” Zhang Family questioned further.
“Because the situation was critical just then, hence I embraced her.”
“Because of her, you revealed your lightness skill! I had no idea you had it!” Zhang Family felt somewhat angry recalling this.
She had only known that Tong Sanlang had picked up a book of Martial Arts secret techniques, and would occasionally practice in the Courtyard.
Who would have known that his kung fu was so good!
“The situation was critical.” Facing his mother’s questioning, Tong Sanlang still gave the same response.
“For her you even fought with General Cen, now you are telling me you don’t like her?!” Zhang Family was genuinely getting angry.
“I can’t just stand by and watch her die. The situation was critical.” Tong Sanlang’s answer still were these four words.
Zhang Family was annoyed, “Are you going to marry her or not!”
“No.” Tong Sanlang answered simply and efficiently.
Zhang Family slapped the table in frustration, “Aren’t you aware that Zhu Cuiying came here to propose marriage for her daughter, Qiao Ying?! If you don’t marry Qiao Xiaomai, then, you can only marry Qiao Ying!”
“I won’t marry anyone.”
“Are you planning to stay a bachelor forever?”
“Will discuss that when I meet the right person.”
“From what I see, Qiao Xiaomai is an excellent choice!”
“She’s the worst fit. What type can’t she find now? Our family and her family are worlds apart.”
“How are they worlds apart?! I can tell she wants to marry you! If not why would she send over so much food?!”
“That’s to show gratitude to Grandpa, it has nothing to do with me.”
“You!” Zhang Family was fuming, panting in exasperation.
Tong Sanlang quietly met her gaze, his handsome face calm.
After some time, Zhang Family slapped the table, “A marriage depends on the word of the parents, the matchmaker, and the couple, you have no say in it!”
“Grandpa is the head of the house, mom. It’s better if you have this discussion with Granddad.”
“Hmph! That girl is your grandpa’s precious darling. I’m sure he will agree once I suggest it. Just brace yourself for the wedding!” With that, Zhang Family angrily stormed off.
Tong Sanlang mildly picked up the book again, and continued his studies.
Because he treats Qiao Xiaomai as his precious darling, that’s precisely why he doesn’t wish for her to marry into their family!
Tong Tiehu was at the new house and not at home, Zhang Family braved the blazing sun to find him.
When she arrived, Tong Tiehu was slicing green grass with a cutting knife, while Qiao Zhaodi and Qiao Yindi were helping him on the side.
After Qiao Zhaodi and Qiao Yindi finish their daily chores at Qiao Xiaomai’s home, they were free. It was mid-afternoon, this was their free time.
Zhang Family entered the Courtyard, without even glancing at the sisters, she said to Tong Tiehu, “Dad, Sanlang is not young anymore, it’s time for him to get married, do you have any plans?”
At her words, Tong Tiehu stopped his work, “Let’s discuss it after Sanlang passes the local examination.”
“Passing the local examination doesn’t delay the marriage.”
“Do you have someone in mind?” Tong Tiehu wiped the sweat off his cheeks with the handkerchief around his neck.
“I think Qiao Xiaomai would be a good choice.”
“We are not worthy of her,” Tong Tiehu flatly refused.
