Chapter 157 Don't try to bribe me

Matchmaker Zhang acted as if she was doing something extraordinary.

"Didn't the Guo family say last time that they would give you twice the betrothal gift? This time they have said that adding an extra tael of silver won't be a problem!" Matchmaker Zhang waved her handkerchief, as if the Guo family was truly amazing, "

You have to think carefully, Miss Su, who in the entire Qingping Village can have such good conditions? No more!"

Su Eli smiled half-heartedly, "The conditions are so good, why don't you marry me."

After saying that, she closed the door and no matter how hard Matchmaker Zhang knocked on the door, she wouldn't open it.

"A matchmaker for you?" Sang Xinyue asked, "Fifty taels of silver is a lot, but the question still depends on how the other person is."

Su Eli smiled and said, "Sister Sang, don't worry about this. Anyway, I have no plans to get married for the time being. Besides, if I get married, where will you make this money?"

"I would rather not earn this money from you, but also want you to have a good family." Sang Xinyue said with great seriousness.

Su Eli was startled at first, and then she felt a little warm in her heart.

It seems that she is really lucky. After coming here, at least the friends she has met are sincere.

Matchmaker Zhang was still knocking on the door outside, talking about an extra tael of silver. Su Eli rolled her eyes at the outside and pulled Sang Xinyue into the house.

It's just a tael of silver, and it sounds like it's so great. Is she worth just a tael of silver?

If she doesn't like someone, even if it's an extra one hundred taels, a thousand taels, or a house full of gold, let alone one tael more, she won't even look at it!

Wanting to bribe her with just one tael more money is a dream!

Matchmaker Zhang knocked on the door outside, but no one answered after knocking for a long time. She looked unhappy, waved her handkerchief, muttered something about not knowing what was going on, turned around and left.

She had just taken two steps out when she was blocked by a person.

"Aunt Zhang, are you here again?" Mrs. Zheng stopped her with a smile, "Why do you look so unhappy? What happened to you?"

"You are..." Matchmaker Zhang couldn't recognize it.

Mrs. Zheng smiled and said, "You are such a noble person who forgets things. I am the third daughter-in-law of the Su family. Didn't I still say what you said about my marriage at that time?"

"Oh oh oh..." Matchmaker Zhang finally recognized her, but when she heard that she was from the Su family, her expression was a little ugly.

"Auntie, what's wrong? Why are you unhappy? I didn't offend you." Mrs. Zheng said with a bit of flattery, "I had a good marriage at that time. Thanks to you for telling me about it, I always thought about it.

Thank you, it’s not too late.”

Matchmaker Zhang finally found a place to vent her sorrows. She took Mrs. Zheng and complained about Su Eli, "That girl Su in your family is really hard to convince. I don't know how her vision is so high. People say

Okay, I’m giving you a betrothal gift of five taels. Isn’t this too disrespectful?”

Five taels?!

Zheng's heart started beating wildly. This was one or two more than what she heard last time!

Five taels of silver, why did you fall in love with that little shrew!

Zheng murmured in her heart, but she looked like she was caring about Matchmaker Zhang, "You mean our eldest girl Su Eli? Actually, that's not the case..."

"What's going on?" Matchmaker Zhang looked unhappy. "Last time, you used a broom to drive me out. This time, you just closed the door and refused to let me in. I'm not talking about you, but you don't have any basic etiquette!"

"Hey, Aunt Zhang, that's not the case! You're looking in the wrong place!" Mrs. Zheng said, as if she understood very well, "Do you think, even if the family is separated, don't you have to ask your elders to propose marriage? That's all you do

Would she be embarrassed to go to her directly?"

Originally, Mrs. Zhang didn't want to talk about this marriage, but when she thought of the benefits the Guo family had given her, she became more energetic again, "What do you mean?"

"Although her parents are gone, she still has grandparents, right? You have to prepare some gifts for her grandparents," said Zheng.

"Is this true?" Matchmaker Zhang disagreed a little, "We have divided the family, and we can't interfere with weddings and funerals."

Zheng curled her lips and said, "You can't interfere, but what if she originally agreed, but just pretended to disagree out of face? You went to find her grandma, wouldn't it just follow the trend?"

Matchmaker Zhang was stunned and said, "Is this really true?"

"I promise you it is." Mrs. Zheng said, "I am her aunt, how can I not know? Come back tomorrow morning, get some things, and go directly to her grandma's place. I guarantee that this thing will happen."

"Did you agree?" Matchmaker Zhang was still a little doubtful.

Mrs. Zheng patted her chest and promised, "If it doesn't work out, I will kowtow to you to apologize!"

With Zheng's guarantee, and then thinking about the benefits the Guo family had given her, Matchmaker Zhang muttered in her heart, she still had to talk about the marriage!

After separating from Matchmaker Zhang, Mrs. Zheng returned home. She has been waiting here these days, just to wait for Matchmaker Zhang. Unexpectedly, she was actually made to wait today.

With a smile on her face, Mrs. Zheng returned home and went directly to Mrs. Sun's room as soon as she entered the door.

Grandma Sun's injuries haven't healed yet, she's lying on the bed half-dead, and she just says "ouch" when she has time.

"Mother." Ms. Zheng looked back and saw that no one was here, so she knelt down and said to Mrs. Sun on the bed, "Mother, I heard from Matchmaker Zhang that all the betrothal gifts from the Guo family went to this uncle."

She stretched out five fingers and made vigorous gestures.

"Five taels?!" Grandma Sun's eyes widened. This is five taels of silver. It would be great if it could fall into her hands!

When she was excited, she touched the wound again, and the pain immediately made her angry. She scolded Mrs. Zheng, "You bitch, why do you care about the betrothal gift? You can't come to our house, you are meddling in so many other things!"

"

Mrs. Zheng couldn't help but feel aggrieved, "Mom, I just want to discuss with you how to get this money into our hands!"

Grandma Sun suddenly became energetic, "What? What are you talking about? Can this money be in our hands?"

"Don't we have to find a way? If she doesn't want to get married, why don't we let her get married?" Zheng said, "Do you think it's okay for us to do this?"

Mrs. Zheng muttered a few words to Granny Sun, and Granny Sun stared in confusion, "Can it still be like this?"

"You try it tomorrow! If it doesn't work, we have other ways!" Mrs. Zheng gritted her teeth and said.

Soon, it arrived the next day.

This time, Matchmaker Zhang brought some snacks and came to Grandma Sun's house.

Mrs. Sun's buttocks hurt terribly and she couldn't sit down, so she stood there, trying her best to put on a smile and look at Matchmaker Zhang.

"Hey, what's wrong with you?" Matchmaker Zhang saw Granny Sun's appearance as soon as she came in.
