Chapter 282: Chapter 282: Pretending to Be Innocent Really Takes Some Getting Used To

"You want to know some things about me to boost your pride as a worker, so I’ll satisfy your curiosity."

The bride’s cousin laughed in response, "It’s still better to have a job than to feel inferior every time you have to ask for money."

She almost said, "When you ask for money, you feel inferior."

"Marry a man for food and clothing, to provide for the family. My man said he’d take care of everything and I trust him," Yun Xiaoxiao said, nearly gagging as she spoke. "After all, I can’t be like the eldest sister, able to work and support myself."

Pretending to be the innocent really is quite unfamiliar.

Going on about how great her own man is.

So what if he’s good-looking?

He has no job.

Unlike her, who has a formal job. And the monthly salary isn’t small either.

Mrs. Zhao, sitting beside Yun Xiaoxiao, boasted about her youngest son, "Ever since my Laosan got married, he won’t let his wife do any farming work."

The bride’s mother smiled and said, "My daughter is skilled both at home and outside."

Though she has no job and isn’t as pretty as Comrade Yun, she’s indeed skilled both at home and outside.

The woman being set up sat silently to the side, like a little wife.

And Zhao Tianhe, usually so talkative, why so quiet today?

Then the matchmaker spoke up.

"Xiao Cao is the most diligent girl in the Zhao Family Village Team, very good at housework."

Turning to introduce Zhao Tianhe, "Xiao He now earns full work points, the young man is also handsome, and Xiao He’s uncle is the team leader of the Zhao Family Village Team...."

"Sister-in-law...."

What’s going on?

Has someone caught her eye, or not?

"What’s up?"

Yun Xiaoxiao looked at Zhao Tianhe, hoping he really hadn’t taken a liking.

The woman remained silent.

The matchmaker once again laid out both families’ situations.

This was Zhao Tianhe’s first matchmaking attempt.

The bride’s mother whispered to the matchmaker about how much dowry she wanted.

The matchmaker, acting as the intermediary, relayed the bride’s family’s demands.

Little Aunt Zhao nearly gasped out loud.

But she held it back in the end.

Zhao Tianhe looked bewildered, had his mother glared at him?

What did he do wrong?

A look of confusion almost made Yun Xiaoxiao burst out laughing, but she managed to suppress it.

Little Aunt Zhao still felt quite irritated.

The matchmaker began relaying messages again.

If it weren’t for the matchmaker saying how good-looking and hardworking the girl was.

Normally, the nephew’s wife seldom went out, so she hadn’t properly noticed.

One could say, the nephew’s wife’s appearance was probably the prettiest among the female comrades in the team.

"Xiao He, take Xiao Cao out for a walk," the matchmaker suggested, sending the two young people out as the dowry and bride price needed discussion.

Little Aunt Zhao feared this outing might affect their reputations.

"Xiao Yuyu, go out with your uncle for a walk," she said.

With her grandson accompanying them, who could criticize?

Zhao Tianhe wondered about his mother’s sudden change from scolding to sending him out with this girl? Did she take a liking?

But he hadn’t taken a liking yet.

Nevertheless, he obediently went out with his little nephew, Xiao Yuyu.

Xiao Yuyu was a bit older than Da Bao but often played with Da Bao and Xiao Bao.

As they left, Little Aunt Zhao, Mrs. Zhao, and Yun Xiaoxiao remained on the groom’s side, while the bride’s mother, her cousin, and the matchmaker represented the bride’s side.

It was a battle among women.

Only, Yun Xiaoxiao wondered, wasn’t this their first meeting?
