Chapter 301: Chapter 301: You Might Have Encountered a Fake Matchmaker

As soon as the two of them got home, they saw the four men in the family carrying farming tools and heading out.

"Dad, what are you all doing?"

"Old San’s wife, isn’t it the beginning of spring? It’s time to start plowing the fields."

It was just after the New Year, and the temperature hadn’t risen above freezing yet. Could the soil be that easy to plow? And it looked like they were planning to till the land by hand.

Upon hearing this, Xiangxiang’s excitement was written all over her face, "Plowing the fields? That sounds fun, let’s go too."

"..." Xiaoxiao helplessly thought, how could this pampered young lady be interested in everything? That was fieldwork, not playing.

But she really did want to see; she had been here for so long and still didn’t know where their land was.

Xiaoxiao nodded at Wang Xiangxiang and turned to ask her father-in-law, "Dad, where are the farming tools? Wait for us, we want to go too."

"Old San’s wife, what do you need farming tools for? There’s no reason to make guests work the fields. Hurry and take Miss Wang inside."

That seemed to make a lot of sense, and Xiaoxiao hesitated, only to see her mother-in-law coming over.

She took her arm as if supporting a very weak patient, "Old San’s wife, you mustn’t work in the fields. Old San made me promise again and again before he left to have you rest well these few days. Go inside quickly."

When her mother-in-law said that, Xiaoxiao felt a bit embarrassed, her heart as sweet as if it had been filled with honey, and she said softly, "Mom, I’m fine."

"What do you mean fine? Get inside quickly."

Although her mother-in-law’s tone wasn’t pleasant, Xiaoxiao could tell she was genuinely concerned, so she could only say to Wang Xiangxiang, "Sister Wang, let’s not go these few days. I’ll take you there after a few days."

Wang Xiangxiang gave her a knowing look and followed Xiaoxiao inside.

Once back in the room, the mother-in-law brought another bowl of brown sugar water, "Here, drink another bowl. Anyway, there’s nothing to do, so just lay on the kang. I’ll warm it up for you, so you can warm your belly."

After saying that, she went out to warm the kang for Xiaoxiao, leaving Wang Xiangxiang and Xiaoxiao alone in the room.

Seeing the interaction between Xiaoxiao and her mother-in-law, Wang Xiangxiang was filled with envy, "Xiaoxiao, your mother-in-law is so good to you."

Speaking of this, Xiaoxiao was filled with happiness and pride, smiling as she said, "Yeah, everyone in their family is super good to me."

"How come you’re so lucky to have found such a good family? Although they’re not rich, as long as the people are good, that’s what matters."

"..." Was she really that fortunate? When she first arrived, she complained about everything, lamenting why she hadn’t been reborn as a pampered young lady. Now thinking about it, she truly felt fortunate to have come here and met her modest husband.

Wang Xiangxiang sat in front of Xiaoxiao’s desk, lazily propping her chin with her hand, "Why can’t I have that kind of good fortune? Why are all the men the matchmaker introduces to me so unsuitable? If I hadn’t seen for myself, I would have been deceived."

Xiaoxiao truly admired Wang Xiangxiang. The girls here were actually very conservative, and for her to take charge of her happiness like this was quite unconventional. Usually, the matchmaker would arrange the marriage, and the couple would only meet on the wedding night.

"You might have encountered a fake matchmaker," Xiaoxiao joked.

Wang Xiangxiang didn’t answer, as if pondering something, and then she spoke very solemnly.

"You seem to make a lot of sense, it must be a fake matchmaker. Otherwise, why would all the matches she finds be so unsatisfactory? Where can I find a real matchmaker?"

With her head in her hands, Xiaoxiao felt quite helpless, "Sister Wang, are you that eager to get married?"
