After her husband died, her parents came to force her to remarry

Chapter 235 Engagement

Now that things have come to this, they start talking as soon as they enter the house.

Zhang Da Nv hid behind the door and listened with her ears perked up.

In front of Zeng Hua and Zhang Quan, Wang Hong repeatedly assured that he only liked Zhang Da Nv and asked them to marry Zhang Da Nv to him.

Zhang Da Nv's face turned red when she heard this in the room. She felt touched and shy.

Zeng Hua was a little angry. First, her daughter had not even reached the age of marriage yet, but she was already in love with Wang Hong, and she was kept in the dark. Second, after what had just happened, she didn't know whether Zhang Xiu'e would let it go.

Wang Qiuxia spoke softly in the middle: "Sister-in-law! Look, this side is my eldest nephew, and the other side is my eldest niece. I hope they are happy. Why don't you ask the eldest girl for her opinion?"

Ask the big girl? Zeng Hua glanced at Zhang Da Nv's room with a bad temper. That little girl was not eager to ask her to agree.

"It has always been the parents' orders and the matchmaker's words. I will decide what she wants."

Zhang Da Nv almost rushed out.

"Then you should give me a definite answer!"

Wang Qiuxia was a little anxious.

Zeng Hua was no longer in a hurry.

He sat down and said, "If you want me to agree, I can agree to this marriage, but my eldest daughter has just reached the age of marriage, and she is not very old. If they want to get married, I want to wait until Wang Hong really becomes the shopkeeper!"

Before Chen Xiuqun nodded, Wang Hong immediately agreed: "As long as Auntie agrees, I will work hard to become the shopkeeper and marry the girl as soon as possible."

His last words were directed towards Zhang Danniu's room.

Zhang Danniu's face turned red, and she felt like her heart was about to jump out.

With his assurance, Zeng Hua felt a little more relieved.

Zhang Daniu's expression relaxed at this time. He was really afraid that his mother would become stubborn again and not agree to this marriage. Now that she agreed, he put his arm around Wang Hong's shoulders and said, "I never thought that you and my sister would have such a good relationship."

Wang Hong’s face turned red, not sure if it was because of excitement or shyness: “Thank you, Brother Daniu.”

The relationship instantly eased and everyone was talking and laughing again.

Chen Xiuqun said, "Her second aunt, now that you have agreed to this marriage, although it is still early for them to get married, I think we should still go through the process and invite a matchmaker to come and arrange the marriage."

Zeng Hua glanced at Zhang Quan and saw him nod. She then said, "Okay, you guys can do whatever you want."

Chen Xiuqun was immediately happy: "Don't worry, I will definitely do it gloriously. You can ask for anything you want!"

Then several old men went to discuss the engagement.

Tian Tianer went into the house and called Zhang Danniu out.

Wang Hong looked at her cautiously, and finally mustered up the courage to sit down next to her and told her everything that had just happened outside the house. She made promises and swears, and finally saw a smile on Zhang Danniu's face, and the stone in her heart finally fell to the ground.

Zeng Hua was feeling a little uncomfortable at first, but when he looked up and saw Wang Hong coaxing and swearing to her own girl, he felt somewhat satisfied and happily discussed the engagement with Chen Xiuquan.

In the evening, they had dinner at Zeng Hua's house. When leaving, Wang Hong stared at Zhang Da Nv. She couldn't get enough of it. Wang Qiuxia couldn't help but say, "Hong Wa's eyes are about to grow on Da Nv."

Zhang Da Nv ran back to the house shyly, and Wang Hong's face was almost bleeding.

"Okay, Second Aunt, wait for me to calculate the birth dates of the two children and notify you in advance when the time is right."

Zeng Hua also smiled and nodded: "Okay, I'll wait for your good news."

The two Zhang families were happy here, but the Xu family on the other side was not so happy.

Xu Xiulian lay on the bed and cried for a long time.

Zhang Xiu'e coaxed her: "Xiu Lian, he is blind if he looks down on us!"

Xu Xiulian snorted: "He is so ungrateful!"

Zhang Xiu'e nodded repeatedly: "That's right! He looks down on us, but we look down on poor boys like him even more."

But Xu Xiulian still refused to accept it: "But I just like him!"

"You...ah!" Zhang Xiu'e slapped her thigh, "Why are you so stubborn? From what I saw today, Wang Hong is just like that. The most important thing is that he said in front of so many people that he doesn't want to marry her. Are you going to pester her? Isn't this just being a slut?"

Xu Xiulian hugged the quilt and shook her head: "I don't want it, I want to marry him! Mom, I have a strong feeling that Wang Hong will definitely have a promising future. You let me marry because you want me to live a good life in the future, right?"

"No matter how successful he is, if he doesn't marry you, it has nothing to do with you!" Zhang Xiu'e clapped her hands in anger.

"Then let him marry her!" Xu Xiulian threw away the quilt, jumped off the bed, ran to Zhang Xiu'e and pulled her arm: "Mom, I like Wang Hong. Don't you have a lot of ways? Just help your daughter!"

Zhang Xiu'e was annoyed by her, and finally she could only say, "Okay, okay, I'll think of a solution."

Xu Xiulian smiled brightly: "I knew it, mother is the best. I will definitely respect you in the future."

At this time, Xu Yuanshan came back from outside and got very angry again: "I heard that you brought a matchmaker to someone's house today to propose marriage and was rejected?"

Zhang Xiu'e was immediately displeased when she heard him speak in a bad way: "What's the matter? Is that bastard whispering in your ear again?"

Xu Yuanshan put down the firewood in a bad mood and cursed angrily: "You have really ruined the reputation of my Xu family."

This sentence really made Zhang Xiu'e furious.

"Xu Yuanshan, you bastard, I gave birth to children for you, and you actually talk about me like this. What am I doing all this for? Isn't it for our family? I was bullied outside, and not only did you come back and not comfort me, but you actually joined people outside in talking about me. I'm going to fight with you." As he said that, he rolled up his sleeves and rushed forward, and the couple started fighting.

Xu Xiulian watched this scene as if she was used to it. She did not try to stop the fight. She just felt annoyed and closed her door, thinking out of sight, out of mind!

The next morning, Wang Hong and her family prepared to go back. Wang Dayi and Chen Xiuquan planned to go directly back to Wangjiawan, while Wang Hong planned to go back to the shop, hoping to learn more from Manager Chen so that she could become the manager sooner and marry Zhang Danv.

After talking about everything yesterday, Zhang Daniu was no longer so shy. She took a pair of shoes she made, stuffed them into Wang Hong's arms, and said shyly, "I made them for you."

Wang Hong looked up at her and saw the silver locket she had given her yesterday hanging around her neck. She couldn't stop smiling and said, "I will take good care of it."

Zhang Daniu blushed and said, "Why cherish it? If it breaks in the future, I'll make another one for you."

These words made Wang Hong very happy.

The adults looked on without saying much and watched the family leave.

But just after leaving the village and turning the corner, Wang Hong saw Xu Xiu Lian, and her face immediately turned bad.
