Chapter 569 Jiang Sanniu is looking for a son-in-law
With a loud bang, the door hit her head.
The blade was firmly embedded in the wound, but there was no trace of fear on Jiang Sanniu's face, as if she had already gotten used to it.
Now there are only three people left in Jiang Guangyi's family.
Zhou Gai'er who has gone crazy, and Jiang Guangyi and Jiang Sanniu.
As for Chen Qiuju and Jiang Lingu, the grass on their graves was half a person tall.
In the village, Jiang Guangyi's family was like rats crossing the street. Whenever they appeared, everyone avoided them and the villagers never talked to them. After all, they were in opposition to Jiang Fubao's family.
The villagers can live such a good life, prospering, well-fed and warmly clothed, all thanks to Jiang Fubao's family, so naturally her family would not be in trouble.
"Where the hell have you been? You're taking so long to get a bucket of water. Are you being lazy? Come here quickly and give your brother a bath. Hurry up! You little girl, you only know how to irritate me, just like your damn father. Where's your father? I've been looking for him for a long time but couldn't find him. Did he go to peek at the little widow next door taking a bath?"
Zhou Gai'er, standing in the yard, cursed at Jiang Sanniu.
Her raised left hand corresponded with the kitchen knife on the door.
In the past few years, she had become skin and bones, with deeply sunken cheeks, cloudy and bulging eyeballs, and the red bloodshot eyes could be seen even from a long distance. It was so scary that if you didn't know her, you would think she was a thousand-year-old corpse crawling out of a grave.
"My father? My father is buried in the ground." Jiang Sanniu looked at the pillow in her mother's arms and felt a little tired.
My younger brother died a long time ago, but after my mother went crazy, she always believed that my younger brother was still alive.
Every day she would go to the river to fetch water for this so-called "brother" to bathe.
Days like this are finally coming to an end.
"You silly girl, what nonsense are you talking about? Your father is fine, oh oh oh, don't cry, my dear son, don't cry, I'll let your sister give you a bath in a while, my dear son, I love you the most, you silly girl, go and boil some water, you want to freeze your brother to death, it's so cold, what if my precious son gets frozen to death, do you think his life is as cheap as yours!"
Zhou Gai'er held the pillow and coaxed his daughter, not forgetting to take the time to scold her.
After looking at her mother's eyes, Jiang Sanniu swallowed her saliva, but did not dare to respond. The kitchen knife on the door almost hit her head.
"Sanniu, hurry up and cook. It's getting late. You haven't eaten anything this morning. By the way, grandpa has found a good marriage for you. Let's go to town tomorrow morning and grandpa will take you to have a look."
Jiang Guangyi glared at Zhou Gai'er, and the latter dared not make a noise anymore.
Even though she was crazy, she was still afraid of Jiang Guangyi deep down.
She went back into the house holding the pillow and went to "feed" her son.
"Grandpa, what marriage?" Jiang Sanniu looked at him blankly, but the figure just now suddenly appeared in her mind.
She heard from the villagers that the young man was the county magistrate's biological son and a top scholar in the imperial examination. Although she didn't know what a top scholar was, she heard that he was even more powerful than the county magistrate. He was probably also a scholar and would definitely become an official in the future.
He is so handsome.
How great would it be if she married someone like this in the future?
Thinking of this, Jiang Sanniu, who was already fourteen years old and had just begun to fall in love, had a longing look on her face and her cheeks turned slightly red.
"Sanniu! Are you as crazy as your mother? I'm talking to you." Seeing that his granddaughter ignored him, Jiang Guangyi slapped her on the back.
Jiang Sanniu was in so much pain that she couldn't straighten her back.
People are also awake.
"You are the only one left in the family now. The husband that Grandpa finds for you must come to our house. This is to find a son-in-law for you. If your brother were still alive, you would never have such a good chance. Our family has no money, and the son of a good family would never come to our house. So this man is a little old, but it's good to be old, he will be caring.
It's just that your brain is a little confused, but we are not afraid. As long as you give birth to a son for the Jiang family and let our family have an heir, grandpa can close his eyes even if he dies. Let's go to the town tomorrow morning to take a look. Remember to clean up and wash your hair later. Look, it's dirty. If you can be favored by his family at first sight, we can give you less money. "
The eldest son was adopted and the younger son died.
Now that he has lost his grandson, his only hope lies in his granddaughter. Jiang Guangyi plans to find a son-in-law for Jiang Sanniu, but the family has no money.
I can only find a stupid one.
The family also happened to be dissatisfied with their stupid son's inability to earn money and work, so they were eager to send him away.
Jiang Guangyi even wanted to save the half tael of silver that was originally agreed upon.
"Confused? What do you mean? Grandpa! Do you want me to marry a fool? I don't want to! I don't want to marry such a person!"
Thinking of the young man standing next to Jiang Fubao, Jiang Sanniu got angry with Jiang Guangyi for the first time.
"Take a piss and look at yourself. You're lucky to have someone willing to marry you. You're a cripple, you don't have anything. If it weren't for my grandson being gone, you think I care about you. I'll sell your mother tomorrow. Damn it, you guys will just eat and drink for free."
After scolding his granddaughter, Jiang Guangyi spat a mouthful of thick phlegm on the ground and turned around and went into the house.
The family's land had long been sold.
Fortunately, taxes are not levied per capita, otherwise we would not be able to survive.
Over the years, Jiang Guangyi grew some vegetables in the backyard of his home and sold them in town every now and then. With the help of Jiang Sanniu who picked mushrooms and dug wild vegetables in the mountains, he managed to survive until now. Seeing that there was only a little over half a tael of silver left at home, Jiang Guangyi was extremely anxious.
He planned to sell Zhou Gai'er to a brothel after his granddaughter got married. Although the crazy woman was not worth much, she could still be sold for one or two taels of silver.
He saved the money and didn't spend it. He kept it for his granddaughter to give birth to her child and then used it to raise his great-grandson.
Jiang Guangyi was very happy when he heard that all the villagers had gone to reclaim land and grow medicinal herbs.
Medicinal herbs are good and more valuable than vegetables. From now on, he would steal some every few days under the cover of night, and it would not be easy to be discovered. He would then sell them to the herbal medicine shop, and his family would definitely not have to worry about food and drink.
"Sanniu, go and cook quickly. If you keep throwing a tantrum, I'll beat you to death." Thinking of this, Jiang Guangyi suddenly felt a little hungry. He smelled the aroma of meat coming from the neighbor's house, and his stomach started rumbling.
He just opened the window, stuck his head out and cursed.
Jiang Sanniu, who was crying, could only wipe away her tears with her sleeves and lowered her head to go to the kitchen to cook.
It’s called rice, but it’s actually just wild vegetable porridge.
I dug up some wild vegetables from the mountains yesterday afternoon, soaked them in water, and cooked them into wild vegetable soup. I added only a little bit of salt and divided it into two large bowls and one small bowl.
The big bowl was for Jiang Sanniu and Jiang Guangyi, as they both had to work, and the small bowl was for Zhou Gaier.
She was acting crazy all day long and couldn't help with anything, so naturally she couldn't eat enough. It was enough for her to just have this one meal a day as long as she didn't starve to death.
