Fortunate Life of the Rural Beauty

Chapter 26 Low Standard Men

Hiding the sewing kit, Chen Afu was sewing and reading a book with the two young ladies.

After a while, Mrs. Chen came in the rain.

The old lady's face was very ugly. She wanted to scold Mr. Wang for some reason, but she didn't see Mr. Wang, so she took her son to the west room.

She whispered to Chen Ming, Mom feels uncomfortable. She didn't sleep well last night.

Chen Ming was stunned and asked, What's wrong, mother? Who made you angry?

The old lady said angrily, She's not that stupid girl.

Why did Ah Fu offend you? Chen Ming asked in surprise.

The old lady said, Afu has recovered from his illness and is so talented. If you marry someone else without setting up a female household, you will receive a lot of dowry. But she did set up a female household. Anyone who wants to be a son-in-law , they are all poor and can’t afford any money. Silly son, you have raised her for fifteen years, given her medical treatment and medicine, and even given her a son. You have spent at least dozens of dollars on her. . But when she grew up, instead of repaying you as her father, she even took away an acre of Alu’s land to establish a female household. Oh, my Alu was lame and was given a field, but it was a huge loss. It’s over.” After saying that, he beat his chest several times angrily.

Chen Ming hurriedly advised, Mom, Ah Fu and Dabao are both good children who value friendship. They will never forget that the Chen family raised them. Besides, people far and near know that Ah Fu was a fool. Which good family is willing to give birth to more children? That much money to marry her?

That's not necessarily true. I heard from Mrs. Hu that a wealthy family in the town came to the village to inquire about Ah Fu's situation. They gave up the idea when they heard that Ah Fu had a female household. The old lady said angrily. .

It turned out to be Hu's handiwork, no wonder the old lady was so angry.

Chen Ming didn't have a good impression of Mrs. Hu, but she was the sister-in-law after all, so it was hard to say it openly. But this time Mr. Hu instigated the old lady to scold Ah Fu, and he was about to speak out.

He said, Mom, you have been with my sister-in-law for so many years, can you believe everything she says? If there is such a good family, rich, and in the town, and wants to marry Ah Fu, not only will my sister-in-law not come up with it? You said that you would also find a way to mix things up and quietly help Aju negotiate an agreement.

What Chen Ming said was not a villain's heart. This was indeed what Hu was capable of.

The old lady was right, Mrs. Hu was not that kind of person. When he got anxious, he fell into her trap. But he still said stubbornly, Mother knows that Mrs. Hu's thoughts are not good, but you and Alu still suffered a big loss. You raised that girl for more than ten years in vain, and Alu even had an acre of land taken away by her.

Chen Ming got up with a smile and went to the east room to get a finished sewing basket and handed it to Mrs. Chen and asked, Mom, do you think this sewing basket looks good?

This is a square sewing basket. The fine cloth inside is moon-white, with some bright flowers and green grass sewn here and there.

The old lady was surprised and said, Is this a sewing basket? Oh, this is the first time in this old lady's life that she has seen such a delicate and beautiful sewing basket.

Chen Ming smiled and said, This sewing basket was made by Ah Fu after she recovered from her illness. She said she would make more and sell them to Lingyin Temple. After saving up the money, she hurriedly went to see Ah Lu's legs.

After hearing this, Mrs. Chen felt better. She heard from Chen Shi, the third child, that there was a Qianjin Medical Clinic in Fucheng that was very good at treating bone injuries. It's just that the medical fees are too expensive and not something ordinary people can afford. They are all for wealthy people. Even many wealthy people in the capital go there for medical treatment.

If Alu's lameness was taken care of, her biggest worry in her life would be gone.

That girl has a conscience. The old lady said, and returned the money basket to Chen Ming and said, Hurry up and hide this basket, don't let anyone see it, let alone let Mrs. Hu know about it. Mother is also here to help. Do more and sell more money to A Lu for medical treatment.

Chen Ming smiled and said, I don't need my mother's help. My son is slow in weaving baskets. Ah Fu can sew the cloth on alone. He didn't dare to say that it was made by Mr. Wang who took over the embroidery work, otherwise the old lady would scold him.

The old lady asked again, If Afu is cured, they won't continue to support your family, right?

Chen Ming nodded and said, Well, if Chen Fu's illness is completely cured, she will definitely not burden us anymore. She also said that when she makes money in the future, she will let us live a good life and respect us like her son. After reading it, She looked at the old lady and said, She also said that she knows that you and eldest brother are good to her and Dabao, and she still wants to honor you. Mom, just wait and enjoy the blessings. As soon as Ah Fu recovers from his illness, he will be very smart.

The old lady became even happier after hearing this.

Mrs. Chen and Chen Ming were talking to each other, but they didn't know that there was a third ear listening outside the door.

Chen Dabao returned to the east room and told Chen Afu and Chen Alu what he overheard. Chen Afu was frightened again after hearing this. Fortunately, he had established a female household first, so that others could not control his marriage.

Chen Afu has already made plans for his life.

In this life, if you can meet a man who is truly good to you, marry him—no, you should marry him. After all, in ancient times, it was difficult for a woman to raise a child, especially if her appearance was too prominent, and some men would definitely have bad intentions. Another thing is that she was lonely and uncomfortable in her previous life. She always wanted to have more children, and she especially wanted a daughter. This wish in her previous life never came true until her death. She hopes it can come true in this life.

If you can't find a good man, then you will never marry. No matter how hard it is, I won’t marry. Anyway, she already has a son, a kind father and a kind brother.

Chen Afu is more realistic in this life than in his previous life. In his mind, a good man is not close to a rich, handsome man at all.

In summary, there are four points, which she calls the four good men in ancient times.

First of all, you must be decent-looking, with good facial features and sound limbs. It is best to be over 1.7 meters tall. If it really doesn't work, it's okay if it's over 1.65 meters. The requirement for height is not based on aesthetics, but mainly for physical work and combat effectiveness. After all, one of her and Dabao is weak and the other is small.

The second thing is to know how to love your wife and son, have a gentler temper, be kind to yourself and Dabao, and allow yourself to take care of your mother's family. You are not the kind of person who beats women and children at every turn, or the kind who is foolish and filial and will not grow up by hanging on my mother's belt.

The third is that the character is fair, that is, a good citizen who abides by the law, has no bad habits, and must be self-reliant, rather than the kind of lazy person who will live a life of soft food.

The fourth is to be clean. You should brush your teeth, wash your face and feet every day, and take a bath at least every once in a while. She can't stand a man who has yellow stains on his teeth or a bad smell on his body, no matter how nice he is.

It is this kind of four good men with the lowest standards. Chen Afu later learned that in the countryside of this world, there are extremely good men who are famous in the world, and they are rare to find. For a woman like her who is looking for a son-in-law, it is even more desirable. Of course, this is a story for another day.

Chen Afu was overjoyed when he thought that the old lady could not control his marriage. From now on, whether she will marry or not depends on whether she can meet a four good man with the lowest standards.
