Chapter 150: Chapter 150 Exploring the Chiang Family’s Background

If it pleased him to talk about Chiang Xiao to him and possibly get him to settle down and have a good life, then it would be worth it.

Sun Jinhe shook his head and said, "I just saw the Chiang girl, haven’t seen her for a while, and her pretty little face seems even more charming, no wonder Tie Dan likes her."

Hong Tiedan was indeed the brother of Sun Er’s wife, Hong Tao. Hong Tao had come from Hongjiagou and was reasonably attractive. Within a year of marrying into the Sun Family, she had given birth to a boy, and another the following year, which secured her a not insignificant status in the family.

Although the conditions of the Sun Family were not great, they were at least better than those of the Hongjiagou.

Moreover, Siyang Village was poor, and the Hongjiagou, where her family lived, was even poorer, to the point of being destitute. The village was smaller than Siyang Village, with only about twenty households tucked away in the ravines. Due to its small size, remoteness, and poverty, it was tough for the men of the village to find wives, as women from other villages were reluctant to marry into it.

Therefore, even though Hong Tao did not like a girl like Chiang Xiao, who was only pretty in appearance, with a difficult temperament and a weak constitution that made her unsuitable for physical labor, she wasn’t overly disdainful, for someone from Hongjiagou to marry a girl from Siyang Village was an honor in itself.

However, hearing her husband praise Chiang Xiao like that, Hong Tao felt a bit annoyed and pinched him on the waist, "Really, she’s that charming?"

Sun Jinhe heard the sourness in her tone and his face immediately darkened, he slapped away her hand, "What are you thinking? That’s my younger sister’s classmate, still a little girl at that, what kind of man do you think I am? To have the same indecent thoughts as your out-of-tune brother?"

When Hong Tao first told him Hong Tiedan had taken a fancy to Chiang Xiao, he had been somewhat displeased. She was still a child, and Tiedan was already interested in her?

However, considering that Tiedan had spoken about arranging a match now and waiting for the girl to grow up before getting married, he had managed to calm himself.

Now what was his wife talking about?

Seeing that he was truly angry, Hong Tao’s jealousy swiftly evaporated, and she quickly smoothed things over, "It was just a joke, look at you taking it seriously! Don’t I know you’re a good man? Otherwise, would I have been looking forward to marrying you back then?"

She knew Sun Jinhe was not the type to lose his way at the sight of a woman, and he was also quite handsome, particularly potent in certain aspects, or else how would she end up with two kids in two years by herself?

Sun Jinhe saw the love and admiration in her eyes and felt somewhat pleased. His wife might not be particularly great, but she was fertile and had only him in her heart, and that was enough for him.

His expression softened, and going back to the topic of Chiang Xiao, he told her everything he saw on the ox cart, concluding, "So I don’t think the Chiang girl is suited for a frugal household. You know the state of your own family; we surely can’t welcome a girl who’ll squander our resources, can we?"

The most important part was, if Chiang Xiao really married Hong Tiedan and turned out to be that extravagant, with their family connection, it could end up dragging him down as well.

Hong Tao’s eyes shifted as she was somewhat shocked by the amounts Chiang Songhai was willing to spend on his granddaughter.

But if Chiang Songhai could indeed afford to spend so much on Chiang Xiao’s indulgences, did that mean the Chiang Family wasn’t that poor after all?

If her brother Tie Dan managed to get a hold on Chiang Xiao, would Chiang Songhai’s money end up benefiting Tie Dan?

The Hong family might enjoy a better life.

However, they still had to see whether Chiang Xiao really bought all those drawing materials.
