Mrs. Zhou's move made everyone present slightly stunned, and everyone was confused.
They were just being polite to her. How could they have expected that Mrs. Zhou would act out of common sense and not even refuse.
Hong Guangming's face became darker and darker, and a trace of unhappiness flashed in his eyes, but he still didn't show up for the sake of face, and just said lightly: "Then let's eat together."
The smile on Zhou Xi'e's face became more and more forced, but she still held it back and greeted Mrs. Zhou: "Sister, you're welcome, let's eat."
The atmosphere on the table was a little awkward, but Mrs. Zhou didn't care. He directly picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of braised pork and stuffed it into his mouth.
The aroma of the oil in her mouth made her feel a little better. She took a few bites and chewed the meat while saying inarticulately: "Xi'e, eldest sister came here because of something." Please."
Zhou Xi'e's heart skipped a beat, but she still smiled and said, "Sister, what's the matter? We're a family, just tell us if you have any questions."
Mrs. Zhou sighed and said: "Our family has encountered some difficulties recently, and I was wondering if I could borrow some money from you to deal with the emergency. It's not a lot, five taels of silver is enough."
The smile on Zhou Xi'e's face suddenly stiffened, her eyes flickered, and she lowered her voice and said: "Sister, you also know that although our family can still live well, the buffalo is valued by the prince, and it can be improved to a higher level just by looking at it. We are worried about this matter."
Five taels of silver is easy for Zhou Xi'e, but she doesn't want to lend it out. , especially lending it to Mrs. Zhou.
RBI is a fact, and further is also a fact. It was just to please the steward, to get the steward to relent and marry his daughter to a bully.
After hearing this, Mrs. Zhou's heart sank, but she still said bravely: "Xi'e, no matter what, we are a family, so you have to help with this little work."
Zhou Xi'e was thinking about it, and suddenly thought that Mrs. Zhou had intended to marry her eldest granddaughter to her son, so she took advantage of it.
She pretended to be concerned and said: "Sister, your eldest daughter is actually old enough to get married. Why don't you find her a rich family, who can have ten taels of silver at least? Betrothal gift."
Mrs. Zhou was stunned, obviously she did not expect Zhou Xi'e to mention this.
She lowered the corner of her mouth, glanced at the strange little girl standing aside, and said with a biting sarcasm: "Last time we talked about letting the children look at each other, how long has it been? , your wife is here to welcome you."
Zhou Xi'e saw that Mrs. Zhou was talking about her newly bought maid Qiao'er, and misunderstood that Qiao'er was the wife she married for her eldest son Hong Niu.
But it was really hard for her to explain to Mrs. Zhou that this was the maid she bought.
He could only say sarcastically: "Sister, you misunderstood. This is the niece of Guangming's aunt's husband's aunt's daughter, and she came to play with Yuanyuan."
Hong Guangming was immersed in picking up vegetables. Eat, if you are afraid that you will eat slowly, let Mrs. Zhou take two more bites.
Hearing Zhou Xi'e mention him, he raised his head from his rice bowl and nodded to express that it was indeed the case.
Zhou Xi'e then said: "How about I help you introduce them? Buffalo knows many wealthy families. You can find a rich boy or something, who can not only solve the immediate difficulties, but also provide you with My granddaughter will find a good home."
After hearing Zhou Xi'e's words, Mrs. Zhou couldn't help but think of the prince again, and she felt angry and resentful.
Chen Zhizhi was very confident in what she said before, guaranteeing that she would be able to capture the prince. However, the result was that since that day, the prince had never looked for Chen Zhizhi again.
Chen Zhizhi’s expensive sets of clothes were also secretly sold by that bitch Zhu.
Mrs. Zhou slapped the table and said angrily: "Finding a rich boy? What's the point of that? I want to marry a serious family, how can I do it casually? Find a servant!"
Zhou Xi'e felt unhappy when she saw Mrs. Zhou getting angry, but she still said patiently: "Sister, I am doing this for Da Ya's own good. It is not easy to find a rich family. Although the status of a servant from a wealthy family is not high, it is better to have money."

But in his heart he was extremely contemptuous, thinking to himself that he didn't even look at the appearance of his granddaughter, but she actually dared to dream about the young master of a wealthy family.
Zhou Xi'e thought about it in her heart. She didn't want to lend money to Mrs. Zhou, and Mrs. Zhou was unwilling to marry her eldest granddaughter to an ordinary family.
She thought about it and thought of an alternative.
"Sister, the real wife of this big family must be a good match. If you don't mind..."
You can let the eldest daughter act like the younger one.
However, she did not say the second half of the sentence.
Mrs. Zhou thought for a moment and felt that what Zhou Xi'e said made sense.
How can a country guy like them get a real wife from a wealthy family? If Da Ya could marry into a rich family, being a concubine would indeed be much better than marrying a servant.
Seeing that Mrs. Zhou seemed to be interested, Zhou Xi'e hurriedly struck while the iron was hot and said, "The water buffalo will follow Mr. Wang. There are many young masters and guests. I will talk to the buffalo later and let him lead the way."

A trace of expectation flashed in Mrs. Zhou's eyes, and she asked eagerly: "Can it really happen?"
Perhaps because she felt that she was a little too obvious, several people at the dinner table raised their heads. Looking at her, she added:"Forget it, it's time for Da Ya to get married. It's time to find a good family for her."
Seeing that Mrs. Zhou agreed to her suggestion, Zhou Xi'e felt relieved.
"Sister, leave this matter to me." Zhou Xi'e said, "I will definitely find a good family for Daya."
Mrs. Zhou nodded and looked at her face. Lu was happy, she believed that it would be easy for Hong Niu to do this, "Okay, I'll trouble you then."
The atmosphere on the table gradually eased, Zhou Xie continued to pick up dishes for Mrs. Zhou, and the two of them started again. Started talking about Da Ya's marriage.
After dinner, Mrs. Zhou had no intention of leaving. She sat on the chair and chatted with Zhou Xie'e.
Zhou Xi'e looked at the sky and said with a smile: "Sister, it's getting late today. Do you think it's time to go back?"
Mrs. Zhou acted as if she hadn't heard anything and remained silent. Talking to himself.
Zhou Xi'e had no choice but to say: "Sister, you have been out for so long, the family should be worried."
Mrs. Zhou waved her hands and said: "It doesn't matter, they know that I I'm going back to my parents' house."
Mrs. Zhou is a good example. She doesn't say the reason for borrowing money at all, she just says she wants to borrow money.
Zhou Xi'e complained secretly in her heart, and could only continue to accompany the smiling face, racking her brains to think of how to invite Mrs. Zhou away.
She deliberately yawned and said, "Sister, I am really tired after a busy day and want to take a rest."
But Mrs. Zhou actually stood up and followed She walked together: "Then let's go and have a rest together. We sisters haven't slept in the same bed for a long time."
Zhou Xi'e almost fainted from anger. What does it mean that we haven't slept in the same bed for a long time? They have never slept together!
