Chapter 3

Before meeting He Beian, Xu Ning felt that Hu Xianglan was a great helper for her staying in the He family. After meeting He Beian, how can this be called a helper? It is clearly the biggest obstacle.

After hearing her daughter’s shout and seeing Qian Sanhong preparing to leave, Hu Xianglan had nothing to understand. It must be Qian Sanhong who came to see off his daughter-in-law from the countryside, but was chased away by that damn boy.

Qian Sanhong really knows how to make time. She waited at home for most of the day but no one came. Then she came not long after she went out.

Hu Xianglan trotted back and when she got closer, she looked at Xu Ning who was beside Qian Sanhong.

After all, she was a country girl, so she should be wearing her best clothes. The light gray color was so white from being washed that it was not very torn but it did not fit her well. The clothes were too big and looked empty on her. Her hair was casually braided into a big braid that hung down her back.

Such a rustic outfit doesn’t look ugly on her. Her peach blossom eyes seem to be smiling even when they are not smiling. She has a straight nose and light lips. Her face is so small that it seems like it can be covered by one hand.

She looks quite handsome just as Qian Sanhong said. She would look even better if she dressed up a little. But she is so thin. I wonder if she can get pregnant?

But there is no need to be afraid, because their ancestor was an imperial chef and has great cooking skills, so he can always keep his children fat.

Generally satisfied, Hu Xianglan stopped the two people who wanted to leave and pulled Qian Sanhong’s elbow to walk back, “Where are you going? Come on, come on, let’s go home first, I’ll make some tea, and we can sit down and talk slowly.”

Now that Hu Xianglan is back, the balance of the payment has been settled. Qian Sanhong’s fear and anger were instantly reduced by half. No matter how bad He Beian was, he couldn’t beat his mother too, right?

As for whether Xu Ning will be beaten in the future, it has nothing to do with her. Every couple who doesn’t quarrel or fight goes through this.

Taking Xu Ning, he turned around and followed Hu Xianglan’s force, walking back with her.

When she reached the gate and saw He Beian still blocking the door, Hu Xianglan became furious. She had tried her best to find him a wife and leave descendants for their He family, but this damn boy just chased her out.

With one hand holding something and the other holding Qian Sanhong, she couldn’t free her hands to hit anyone, so she simply kicked.

He Beian took a step back and easily dodged the kick, and in the process made way for the blocked door.

He had the same idea as He Wanjiao, that today’s blind date was probably arranged by his mother. Just meet for the date, and then say it’s not a good match after it’s over.

After entering the door, Hu Xianglan handed the things in her hand to He Wanjiao, let go of Qian Sanhong’s hand, and led the two of them into the house.

Xu Ning quickly scanned the yard. The yard was quite large and cleaned tidyly. There are two fruit trees at the foot of the wall, and new green leaves have just grown on the trees.

The corner of the wall covered with stone slabs should be a well, and next to the well are buckets and hemp ropes for drawing water.

There were a few pieces of clothes hanging on a rope in the yard, a black top and black pants, and they looked like He Beian’s style.

There are two large rooms in a row, brick houses built with blue bricks, red windows, and bright and translucent glass windows. This house must have been newly built, it’s brand new.

When they arrived at the door, Hu Xianglan lifted the door curtain to let Qian Sanhong and Xu Ning go in first. She originally wanted to let He Beian go in with her, but when she saw his face, which looked like someone owed him hundreds of dollars, she gave him a look of disdain. Although they had already agreed on it, she was afraid that he would say something unpleasant.

“Don’t come over here, just pack up and go to work.”

Is there such a good thing? He Beian didn’t hesitate at all, and walked towards his house.

What I said was correct, but he was too obedient and didn’t understand at all! Hu Xianglan was very angry again.

If she doesn’t hold her grandson soon, she will be pissed off to death by her own son sooner or later.

Hu Xianglan took a long breath and walked into the room with a smile. As soon as she entered the room, she saw that the two people were still standing and had not sat down. She quickly asked them to sit down and busied herself making tea.

While Hu Xianglan was pouring water and making tea with her back to them, Qian Sanhong signaled Xu Ning with her eyes to take the initiative and go up to help with the work.

This girl seemed quite considerate along the way, so how come she disappeared at the critical moment?

It’s the first time you meet, why don’t you try to please your future mother-in-law?

Xu Ning looked curious, but really couldn’t understand what Aunt Qian meant, so she gestured with her hands.

Qian Sanhong watched it from beginning to end, but couldn’t understand what Xu Ning was gesturing?

I wanted to ask her in a low voice, but Hu Xianglan had already come over with a teacup, so I had to give up.

The moment Hu Xianglan turned around, Xu Ning returned to her well-behaved and introverted self, lowering her head slightly and saying nothing.

Are you kidding? It’s impossible to work!

From now on she was a timid and introverted country girl, and she would never take on any job unless someone asked her to do it.

Of course, if you ask her to do it, she will formulate actual policies based on the actual situation.

Putting the teacup in front of them, Hu Xianglan sat down opposite Xu Ning and asked her, “Girl, what’s your name? How old are you? Did you bring your marriage certificate? Do you know everything about our family situation?”

“Auntie…, my name is Xu Ning. I just turned 20 the day before yesterday. I brought…brought my marriage certificate.” Xu Ning lowered her head even more, and answered a little haltingly, “Auntie Qian told…about your family situation.”

Yes, I said it! They said your house is the best in the neighborhood, the gate is very grand, and the eldest son of the He family… is a very nice person…

As expected, the country girl is timid. Hu Xianglan is quite satisfied with it. Being timid is good. It complements Bei’an. If this person has a strong personality, wouldn’t they be arguing every day?

“Just bring it. I’ll talk to Bei’an tonight and you can go get the marriage certificate tomorrow.”

“…Okay, auntie.” Xu Ning agreed embarrassedly. At this point, she could only take things one step at a time. Her promise would not count until He Beian agreed to get the certificate.

The smile on Hu Xianglan’s face deepened a lot. She agreed so readily and looked like she was going to live a good life. She knew her son looked fierce, so she tried to reassure Xu Ning, “Bei’an looks fierce, but he’s actually kind-hearted and loves to help people. You’ll know if you spend more time with him.

He is now a chef in the canteen of the machinery factory. He is in charge of all the kitchen matters. He is a good cook. Ask him to cook a few more dishes for you to try later. ”

Xu Ning raised her head slightly and met Hu Xianglan’s smile, “Aunt Qian told me that He…He Beian is a very nice person.”

Hearing that Xu Ning took her words seriously, Qian Sanhong felt guilty for a second. She had never met the eldest son of the He family before coming here. Those were common terms used by matchmakers when they were introducing couples.

Regardless of whether you have met him or not, he is a really nice person and his family is easy to get along with. You can expect to enjoy a happy life if you marry into his family.

Most people would know that only 20% of what the matchmaker says is true, but this silly girl took it all seriously.

Thinking about the final payment of fifty yuan, Qian Sanhong stood up and said to leave, “Xianglan, send the person over. My mission is completed. I won’t disturb you two. I’ll go back first.”

How could Hu Xianglan not know what she meant? Mission accomplished means hard work pay, so she stood up with a smile and said, “Okay, I’ll see you off.”

This time Xu Ning was quite considerate and wanted to stand up as well. She wanted to see if He Beian was in the yard. If he was, and wanted to chase her away, that would be great.

“Xiao Ning, please sit down. I’ll go and see you off.” Hu Xianglan stopped Xu Ning from getting up and went out to see Qian Sanhong off herself.

We had agreed before that I would give you the bride price first, and then give you some hard work fee after the introduction is successful. Although the hard work is not cheap, it’s because they have the ability to do it.

The heavy stone that had been weighing on her heart for four or five years finally fell to the ground, and Hu Xianglan felt that the money was well spent.

They both left the house. Xu Ning leaned back and fell on the sofa. She was unsure now. Is this world the same as what is written in the script?

The problem was that she didn’t know the complete contents of the script. She only heard the staff discussing it a few times. The script in her hand was only three or four pages long, and it contained the lines and plot of her and her co-star.

He Beian is completely different from what was written in the script. What happened to his promise to tolerate being taken advantage of? If He Beian in the script looked like this and his wife still dared to cheat on him, then he would really be fearless.

Anyway, she didn’t dare to do it because she was weak and couldn’t take any beating. Didn’t you see that he was holding his sister by the back of the collar as if she was joking? If he was really cuckolded, wouldn’t he be punched in the head for being in love?
