"I think he must have someone he likes," Meng Lin said.

"Cousin, I think the same."

"Xiao Zhen, what if Grandpa insists?"

Tao Yanzhen remained silent. If Grandpa insists, she might agree, right?

Meng Lin waited for a while but didn’t hear her cousin’s response, so she knew she would definitely compromise.

"Xiao Zhen, Cousin said it right. There’s just a few eligible ones, we all know everyone. This Yang Zhongyi really isn’t bad."

"But he doesn’t like me."

"Xiao Zhen, I’ve told you before I got engaged, your marriage is even harder than mine.

Besides, how many marriages are based on true love? Isn’t it something that gradually develops later on?" In fact, Meng Lin didn’t say that she didn’t have feelings for him either. But now her cousin seemed better than before, so she’d better not bring it up.

"I know."

"Xiao Zhen, listen to Grandpa’s opinion tomorrow."

"I will."

"Let’s sleep. We’ll leave early tomorrow."

Qu Xiaoli heard that the two girls wouldn’t be home tomorrow and told Manjiang, "Tomorrow, tell Tao to come over for lunch."

"Okay, I got it." Actually, Li Manjiang wanted to go with them.

Thinking about asking them tomorrow morning, he was worried about the two girls going out alone, mainly because he hadn’t had the chance to spend time alone with his wife. It was a busy harvest season now.

At six the next day, Li Manjiang went to the Tao Family’s place, but he missed them; the two girls had left fifteen minutes ago.

"It’s okay, both of them are capable. Don’t worry."

"Chunhe, my mom asked you to come to our house for lunch."

"Great, no need to make lunch myself when I come back. When I find a wife in the future, I must find one who cooks well."

Li Manjiang laughed. This cousin-in-law is really amusing. "Want to come back with me for breakfast?"

"No, I already had pancakes for breakfast."

When Li Manjiang returned home, the meal was already cooked.

He saw Dad in the yard wiping the bike. He really cared about that bicycle. "Dad, are you going out?"

"Yeah, going to the township to greet the granary and to ask about the cotton fluffing machine. If we can’t buy it, we’ll have to go to the township for cotton fluffing."

The two girls arrived at the county at a quarter past eight. They had already had breakfast in the town.

Jin Erlin saw them coming over, "Have you eaten? You must have come out early. Come, go home with me for a meal."

"Uncle Jin, we’ve already eaten. We ate in the town, fried dough with bean curd brains."

"Uncle Jin, I’m here to call my Grandpa."

"Sure, go ahead and call. I need to make arrangements. This time, for the trip to the South, I’ll bring you back some rock sugar."

"Thanks for the trouble, Uncle Jin."

Jin Erlin waved his hand, and the two girls went to the office to make their call.

"Grandpa, yesterday Yang Jiu Long’s son, Yang Zhongyi, came to Li Family Village to see us."

"How did he end up there?"

Tao Yanzhen relaxed a bit. "He said he’s at a nearby military camp."

"Oh, did he come to find you?" ƒrēewebnovel.com

"Yes, he directly found my brother."

"Alright, I understand. How are the three of you?"

"Grandpa, it’s pretty easy here. It’s mechanized, so the work isn’t tiring. Wait a bit, Cousin wants to speak to you."

"Grandpa, I got engaged a few days ago."

"Alright, I estimate the application should be here. Get married and live a good life."

Meng Lin’s eyes reddened, and she softly replied, "Grandpa, I will definitely be happy."

"Meng Lin, Grandpa and your Uncle and Aunt can’t make it. Your Aunt mailed you a thousand yuan. Buy whatever you like for yourself."

"Grandpa, I have money. The person gave me a thousand yuan."

"Hmm, keep it yourself then. This is for you to keep for your dowry."

"Meng Lin, that person has been sent to Yun Province."

"That’s quite good." He shouldn’t have ever crossed Grandpa’s family, or she wouldn’t have had to take action.

After a few more words, they finally put down the phone.

Meng Lin saw her cousin’s relaxed expression and couldn’t bear to tell her that once Grandpa knows about this, the two elders might make decisions.

"Cousin, let’s go check out the supply and marketing cooperative."

"Sure, let’s see if there’s any good stuff."

Jin Erlin had already finished his work. Seeing the two girls coming out.

"Uncle Jin, we’ve finished the call."

"Wait for me a moment, a batch of towels arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative yesterday, and the quality is excellent. I’ll take you to buy a few."

"Uncle Jin, is it still possible to buy meat at this time?"

"We’ll go check. Probably not, there hasn’t been any meat for three days."

"Uncle Jin, let me tell you, Li Family Village is building a pig farm. I heard they’re raising fifty pigs at once. Also, they say they can sell two batches a year."

"Really?"

"Absolutely true. The Captain went to buy piglets today."

"Haha, that Li Yungui is really capable. In the future, we won’t worry about eating pork, even if it costs more money."

"I’m coming back with you today. I know that there are new breeds of fat pigs in M City, and they grow very fast, I’ve heard."

"Haha, if Village Chief Li knew about this, he’d be extremely excited."

The three of them went to the supply and marketing cooperative, where they got ten towels. There wasn’t any pork, but Jin Erlin bought them some snacks.

"Uncle Jin, we’re grown up, let’s bring them back for the younger ones to eat."

"Haha, in my eyes, you are still kids. Keep them for when you don’t feel like cooking."

Jin Erlin knew that they were quite tired from farm work, and they still had to cook when they came back, which wasn’t easy. So, he prepared them more food.

"Come on, I’ll take you to the grain station. A truckload of rice arrived yesterday."

Jin Erlin went over and directly bought fifty jins of rice.

"Old Wu, could you give me another fifty jins? I have a use for it."

"You’ve already taken a hundred jins."

"Next time something good comes up, I’ll think of you."

"You promise?"

Jin Erlin was thinking of giving it to Li Yungui as he knew Meng Lin’s wedding would be soon.

The old chief couldn’t come over, so it was essential for them all to attend, which would show support and give face to Meng Lin.

The three of them rode back directly to Li Family Village. freёwebnovel.com

When they arrived, work was already over. Seeing that the house was locked, they knew they must have gone to Li Yungui’s house for dinner.

After setting down the fifty jins of rice and towels, the two girls cooked, and Jin Erlin carried the rice to Li Yungui’s house.

"Old Jin? You’re here, come on in quick."

"I’ve brought you some rice."

"That’s great! I was just in need of it."

Tao Chunhe saw Jin Erlin come over and knew his sisters must have returned too.

Before he could ask, Li Manjiang spoke up.

"They’re both at home cooking."

"Manjiang, go tell them to come over here. It’s late; what are they cooking for? Come eat at home," Li Yungui hurriedly instructed his son.
