"This is a rice coupon of 200 kilograms of rice. Your eldest daughter belongs to me."

In the mid-range living room, a forty-year-old man was giving Hou Manrong a betrothal gift.

Hou Manrong, who was haggard, sat opposite the man, with a dining table between them. She lowered her eyes in embarrassment, looked at the rice coupons on the table, and pursed her dry lips silently.

There is no lights on in the living room, and energy is very tight now. As long as there is a little visibility at home, don’t turn on the lights if you can.

In the dim light, the man who gave the rice coupon did not speak when he saw Hou Manrong not speaking, he stretched out his big hand, bent down, put his palm on the rice coupon, raised his eyes upwards, looking at her with a hint of pride and carelessness, and said:

"You also know that it is the end of the world now, and these supplies are rare. Two hundred kilograms of rice, I can buy seventeen or eighteen women outside. I will give you so much, but it depends on the face of your eldest daughter."

He seemed very sure that for this poor family, a 200-pound rice coupon was an irresistible temptation.

Hou Manrong, who looked about the same age as this man, had her chapped lips trembled slightly. She seemed to emphasize and whispered:

"My eldest daughter is only 18 years old and she is still studying."

Judging from her expression, she is still unwilling to do so.

"It's not too young. If your little daughter wasn't too fat, someone would have come to the door to get a job."

As the man said, there was a sarcasm in his eyes. The two daughters of the Qiao family, one 18 years old, looked like a fairy, were loved by everyone, and the flowers bloomed, and the other 16 years old, looked like a sow. They were as fat as they were, and they were as ugly as they were.

If these two sisters hadn't been said that they were two sisters, no one would believe them.

Hou Manrong was silent for a long time. Her sparse eyelashes trembled a few times, and she said with difficulty:

"Boge, let me think about it again. The child's father has not come back yet after he went out to do the task. It's very difficult for me to handle it."

The man called Bogo had a sneer on his face, and he patted the rice coupon on the table with his big palm.

"Sister Qiao, I'm looking at Brother Qiao's face. I brought the betrothal gift to the door today. You know what the environment is now outside. Everyone's life is not easy. Sometimes, don't be too ignorant of the times."

This was a bit tough and a strong threat made Hou Manrong raise his eyebrows.

Maybe this person named Bogo made her too tightly. Hou Manrong's thin face seemed particularly sad in the dim light. She lowered her voice and said with a little excited expression:

"You call me sister-in-law, you call my husband brother..."

They are all about the same age as her, but now they can come shamelessly and say they want to marry her eldest daughter. Hou Manrong feels angry, but because the man in front of her is really hard to offend.

So she covered up her words and did not dare to speak too clearly, for fear of tearing the last gentleman. This Boge would do something to the mother and daughter while Qiao Pengfei was away.

Bogo's face showed a fierce look. He sat in place, quietly looking at Hou Manrong, and then sneered again. Just as he was about to speak, the sound of the key opening of the door sounded at the entrance.

Qiao Lingxiang's voice sounded outside the open crack of the door.

"Mom, I'm back."

This is Qiao Lingxiang, the extremely fat second daughter of the Qiao family.

Hearing Qiao Lingxiang's voice coming back, Hou Manrong happened to find an excuse and said angrily to Brother Bo:

"If you marry me, just marry my second daughter. No one wants her anyway, so I will take her away tonight."

Because he was sure that Boge would not agree, Hou Manrong deliberately used such words to make excuse him. It was not that Hou Manrong would not give Boge face, but that he wanted to marry her daughter, and Hou Manrong was willing to marry her, so she would marry Qiao Lingxiang.

The door was opened. In such a world, Qiao Lingxiang, who could still be fat as a ball, was stunned when she heard her mother's words in the living room, and stood outside the door and didn't know whether she should go in.

It seems that the adults are talking about very important things, so she should not go up to find a sense of existence.

But Qiao Lingxiang didn't know that even if she didn't want to, she would be very present even if she didn't want to, and would not speak.

In the living room, Bo Ge was so angry that he didn't even look at the fat sow outside the door. He got up and said:

"Don't use such words to make excuse me. I like your eldest daughter, Mrs. Qiao. I'll give you three days to consider. In three days, I'll get someone."

After saying that, Bogo picked up the rice coupon on the table and turned around and walked out the door.

She was still standing outside the door, wearing a purple 5xl sling sweatshirt, with short hair that was cut to the ears, and her hair was covered with some natural curls. When she saw Bogo coming out, she quickly lowered her head, exposed her three-layer chin, and let Bogo go out.

Nabo Ge looked at Qiao Lingxiang with disgust, suddenly stopped, lowered his head and asked:

"I said, did your mother give you pig feed? Why are you so fat?"

These words were full of malice and strong sarcasm, which made Qiao Lingxiang, who was standing outside the door, suddenly raised her head. She felt a little disgusted and asked back without being very polite:

"What's your business?"

"Tsk tsk, people are ugly and they like to make trouble."

Boge shook his head at her. He wanted to slap the sow, but he thought that he wanted to marry the eldest daughter of the Qiao family today. Before he got married, it would be bad to beat the second daughter of the Qiao family.

He sneered, whistled, and without saying a word, he went out and went down the safe stairs.

The energy supply is very tight now, and all the elevators on the high-rise buildings in the city have been stopped. Everyone has to climb up and down stairs regardless of the height of the floor.

After Boge left, Qiao Lingxiang entered the house in a depressed mood. She stood at the entrance of the entrance and looked at the dark room. Her mother sat alone at the dining table in the living room. She opened her thick mouth and shouted timidly.

"Mom, I'm back."

He asked again, "Why is that person here? Mom?"

"Didn't I hear it?"

Hou Manrong suddenly yelled. She slapped the table and stood up, yelling at Qiao Lingxiang with red eyes:

"Did you have to say it twice? I don't have the ear to hear you come back? Why are you so annoying? Didn't you see an adult having something wrong? I've never seen someone as ignorant as you, and you have to make me angry, right? Can't you make me angry like your sister?..."

After a while, Hou Manrong treated Qiao Lingxiang as an emotional punching bag and bombarded Qiao Lingxiang who had just returned home.

Qiao Lingxiang, who was surprisingly fat, stood there in surprise. Did she say something? Or did she ask something that shouldn't be asked? Or did she do something that shouldn't be done?

He obviously did nothing, why did his mother yell at her?

Qiao Lingxiang looked at her mother who looked like an angry lioness, opened her mouth and said honestly:
Chapter completed!
