Chapter 849: Behind the Scenes

"That girl Baorong is quite rare." Zhang nodded naturally, "She helped cut cloth, cut insoles, and took a job at home. Everyone worked together, and she was very friendly. By the way, I told her that she wanted to pay, but she said she didn't want it. I thought that after waiting, I had to pick something for her, which was my intention to be my sister-in-law."

Heren is a rural language commonly used by the village households in Sanshiliyingzi, which means that a person is easy-going and easy to get along with.

Young girls are vigorous and happy. They have not been immersed in the world. Most of them are pure and clean, and they have no worries. Such girls are of course loved by people and are quite infectious for the people and things around them.

"Seal, powder, silk flowers..., I think she loves dressing up. Anyway, the people in our department store are all fashionable and top-notch goods, so let her choose two at that time." Lian Man'er said.

"We were in the city two days ago. Didn't we hear Manager Jiang say that starting spring will bring a batch of fashionable rulers from the south? Then I will choose a bright color for her... And your sister, I will make two sets for you at that time." Zhang nodded and said, "Man'er, don't you care about her?"

"No." Lian Man'er shook her head. She and Shang Baorong had known each other for a short time and had not had too much in-depth contact. To be honest, she didn't hate Shang Baorong. "I am..."

"I know," Zhang smiled, "He is not a few years older than you, and his seniority is one generation older than you."

Lian Man'er rolled her eyes helplessly. Zhang was really right at this point.

In this era, there was no need for contraception, and there was no family planning. A woman could have been born from her teens to her fifties. I heard that she had children in her sixties. This caused a situation. For example, in the Lian family, Lian Xiuer and Lian Zhier spoke out in the same year, but the two were the relatives' aunts and nephews.

However, Lian Xiuer is still relatively easy to accept. After all, we have a very close relationship with each other and have been used to it since childhood. But now, Shang Baorong has come to have a relatively distant blood relationship and has no contact with each other. He is of similar age, but he is of two generations.

This made Lian Man'er a little awkward with Shang Baorong's cousin.

Of course, she would not show it in front of others. But the family was together day and night. Zhang still realized that Lian Man'er was not very enthusiastic about Shang Baorong.

"So childish." Zhang couldn't help laughing.

"It's not just because of this." Lian Man'er thought about it and said, "It's because he didn't know each other before. He has only known each other for a few days. I can't treat her the same way as Ye'er, Erya and the others."

Of course, in addition to this, there is another reason, that is, the shadow left by Xiao Zhou's gaze in her heart.

"That's true." Zhang thought it made some sense after hearing this, "It's fine if you're familiar."

"......They were working together that day, and everyone was joking. I heard that Baorong had not been engaged yet, and said he wanted to introduce her to her in-laws." Zhang suddenly seemed to think of something and said with a smile. "I chatted with her that day. After inquiring, she didn't say she had a kiss because her parents always wanted to move back and were reluctant to marry her outside."

"I want to say it. She is at a good age now. I heard her mean that she wanted to find a family in the neighborhood. Her parents couldn't bear to leave her far away. It would be the best if she could marry into the town." Zhang said again. A woman of her age is the most passionate about the things like Baoqian. "I heard from Zhi'er's mother-in-law that the merchant also asked her to help pay attention to see if there is a suitable one to tell Baorong."

Zhang was happy about this topic, but the rest of the family couldn't take it. Lian Man'er was a little interested in this topic, but her age determined that she could only listen. As for Lian Shouxin, Goro and Xiaoqi, there was nothing to say.

Even if one person said it, Zhang said it was very enthusiastic.

"If you want me, just rely on Baorong's appearance and skillfulness, it's okay to marry into the town, even if you marry into the city." Zhang said to himself again.

Obviously, Zhang's evaluation of Shang Baorong is quite high.

This era is the same as in other eras. A woman’s youth and beauty are invisible assets. Not to mention people who are bystanders, even those with girls have a scale in their hearts.

For example, a smart and beautiful girl can marry into a better family, that is, a high-marriage. But only a beautiful girl without a smart girl will be worse. As for a girl with a poor appearance, she can only marry in moderation or in low-marriage.

Of course, competence and virtuous can also add points to girls who are about to marry. Moreover, everyone seems to pay more attention to the qualities of competence and virtuousness. However, everyone knows the situation in fact.

Maybe it's unfair, but that's the case. Young and beautiful girls who want to marry have great advantages.

Of course, the rules of high marriage, moderate marriage and low marriage mentioned above are not absolute. That is the general situation, and there are many exceptions.

Take the old Lian family as an example. Lian Lan'er was very beautiful when she was young and could speak. It is logical that she could marry into a better family. However, Lian Lao did not pay attention to those things. Because the Luo family, who had a good relationship with her, asked for marriage, he agreed to this marriage. At that time, the two families were considered to be of equal status, and compared with Luo Baocai and Lian Lan'er, Lian Lan'er was considered to be a low-marriage.

Lian Xiu'er's appearance and relationships with others were much worse than Lian Lan'er. However, because Lian Shouren became a scholar at that time and later donated to the supervisor, Zhou greatly improved the conditions for Lian Xiu'er to choose her husband's family, and there were really families who were also scholars who came to marry him.

No matter what everyone thinks, this kind of thing is so realistic.

Shang Baorong's family is small, but she has good conditions and is very promising to "marry high". It is obvious that everyone has just met her and a wife wants to marry Shang Baorong. It is also known that in everyone's eyes, Shang Baorong is very outstanding.

"...What a great girl, it's a pity that I don't have a suitable brother, and there is no suitable person around us." Zhang kept saying, "You often go out and help save some snacks to see if there is any suitable..."

Zhang said this last sentence to Lian Shouxin. Zhang is such a kind-hearted person.

"What?" Lian Shouxin glanced at Zhang, then raised his hand and touched his head, "...I really didn't pay much attention."

"Then you should keep more attention in the future." Zhang said, "Baorong is a serious girl."

"Ah." Lian Shuixin responded vaguely.

"Mom, do you know what kind of people are looking for? Not everyone can do this as a matchmaker." Lian Man'er said to Zhang.

"Look for better conditions, how can I match the talent of other girls?" Zhang said, "I'm not looking at my relatives or something, but I think this girl is good."

"But who else is the girl marrying? She has to pass by her parents?" Lian Man'er said, "Mom, if you want to help others, I won't stop you. You just have to think about it more when you encounter problems. Shang Baorong is good. But I think her mother... that's not aggressive, she looks like she is going along the way with my breasts."

Speaking of the Zhou family and the Zhou family have similar personalities, even if they are as broad as Zhang family, they cannot ignore them.

"We just keep some snacks. If there is a suitable person, I will tell you something. We won't come forward to be a matchmaker." Zhang thought for a while and said.

Even Man'er didn't say anything else. At least Zhang didn't care about it, and this approach was quite reliable.

The night gradually became deeper, but there were still many people in the houses of Sanshiliyingzi. This was not common in normal times, but it was different these days. The wives and girls of every household were busy doing work at Lianman'er's house, and staying up late was essential.

However, the old house was pitch black, and there was only a little dim light on the landlord's house.

Even the old man, Zhou and Shouren were not asleep.

Even the old man was worried, so he sat on the bedding and sighed. Zhou was a little upset and was with him. The old couple didn't stop, and even Shouren could only stay by.

"The third brother should be here..." Old Master Lian lowered his head and spoke.

"It should be here." Zhou replied.

After suppressing Lian Shouyi's man, because it was too late, he could not find anyone to send a message to the city. Seeing Lian Shouyi's man's man's man's man, Mr. Lian felt that this matter could not be delayed, so he asked Lian Shouli to go to the city and send a message to Lian Lan'er, asking her to come home tomorrow. As for tonight, Lian Shouli stayed at Lian Lan'er's house for a night and came back with Lian Lan'er tomorrow.

"Prepare some food tomorrow." Old Master Lian said again.

"...There is still meat. Let Jizu go to the town to buy some bean sprouts tomorrow and buy two kilograms of dried tofu." Zhou said, "There are more than half of the chicken I killed, which is just stewed with sauerkraut."

Although the old house is usually frugal, even Lan'er has chickens to eat whenever she returns to the house. Even if she doesn't kill the chickens at home, she still has to buy them from the town. Zhou's family has always been willing to spend money in this regard.

"Oh, I didn't expect that. I never dreamed that something like this would happen in our family, my madman..." Even the old man sighed again.

"I've been so angry with the second child, so I may not be scolding me behind my back." Zhou said, then looked in the direction of the east wing through the window.

The lights in the east wing had already turned off, and it seemed that everyone had already fallen asleep.

"Did you see, what eyes do Shilang look at me in the daytime?" Zhou still lowered his voice, "Wolf cub, I must hate me in my heart!"

Even the old man and Shouren didn't say anything.

"... Before leaving, he stared at me, hoping to cut me with a knife. He really did this. He dared to beat you." Zhou's eyes were a little blank. If you looked carefully, you could find that there was fear hidden inside.

"Our Lian family doesn't have the kind of person who is very thoughtful and holds grudges." Mr. Lian said.

"...Like the people from the old He family..." Zhou said.
