Chapter 153: Chapter 153: The Wealthy Pei Loaer (7)_1

She couldn’t bear to reject such wealth and prospects, so Grandma Zhang went home to discuss the matter with her husband.

"Once they’re married, any chance to get ahead can be left to Dalang and his brothers!" Zhang Dayun’s father had already thought it through.

Grandma Zhang nodded in satisfaction. This way, Pei Daya would be dutifully confined at home to take care of them, the old couple, while Dalang and his brothers could take over her role and start talking to the Wang family and Chang’s house!

Having made up her mind, Grandma Zhang sent her husband to arrange the marriage proposal. The little brother-in-law of Carpenter Sun had been to Pei Daya’s place to deliver things a couple of times, perhaps he also had his eye on her!

Zhang Dayun was so happy that he wanted to immediately share the news with Pei Qin.

He waited on Taiping Mountain until the late afternoon when Pei Qin returned, excitedly stopping her, "Daya! My mom has agreed to our matter!"

Riding the skateboard was physically demanding, and after two days in a row combined with looking after the noodle stand, Pei Qin was completely exhausted. She glanced at him, as if she hadn’t heard, and continued on her way.

Seeing that she was ignoring him, Zhang Dayun was taken aback for a moment before quickly catching up, "Daya! Daya!" He reached out to grab her.

Pei Qin raised her foot to block him, frowning and impatiently said, "You must be that Zhang Dayun, right? Have I not made it clear to you before, are you brainless, or is your head filled with water!?"

"Daya... Can’t you stop being angry? My mom has already agreed to marry you to me! In a couple of days, my dad will invite a matchmaker to propose marriage!" Zhang Dayun always felt she was just angry.

Pei Qin was about to burst out laughing in anger, "Zhang Dayun! Let me tell you one more time, Pei Daya died falling down the hillside! Last time, because of the runaway talk, I got scolded for many days. It seems I went too easy on you with that beating! I don’t care whether your mom agrees or not, if you dare to stir up any more trouble this time, I will break your dog legs!"

Zhang Dayun was deeply hurt, "My mom has already agreed to our matter..."

"Sicko!" Pei Qin cursed, striding towards the village.

Upon reaching the village and seeing Pei Houli and Old Pei carrying firewood back home as well, Pei Qin’s face darkened, and she couldn’t help but curse the heavens in her heart. What the hell kind of place was this! Everyone was so damned self-righteous—she wished she could annihilate them all!

Having jobs to do at home, Lady Fang and the others had wrapped up the noodle stand early and returned. Seeing Pei Qin’s somber expression as she entered, Lady Fang immediately became concerned, "Qinqin! What’s wrong?"

"Ran into some nutcase on the way back!" Pei Qin was never one to put up with endless chatter, but she couldn’t help complaining to Lady Fang about the presumptuousness of Zhang Dayun’s family, "...absolutely crazy!"

Seeing she was truly annoyed, frustrated with Zhang Dayun’s family, Lady Fang completely relaxed and lovingly stroked her head, "Our Qinqin is capable and beautiful; naturally, all those people outside want to propose marriage!" When she was at her parental home, there were waves of proposals. The more proposals there were, the more it proved how wonderful her Qinqin was! But Zhang Dayun’s family, Grandma Zhang was not a good mother-in-law, she had adamantly refused before, and now that she saw their family’s situation improving, she wanted to make a marriage proposal, it was better to refuse!

Pei Qin looked at her with the corner of her mouth twitching, losing her temper from being so addressed. She rubbed her head and started reciting lessons with Pei Wendong, teaching San Ya and Si Ya to recognize characters, "Tomorrow when we come back, we’ll buy a copy of the ’Three-Character Classic’ first."

Si Ya opened her mouth, thinking about the twenty-odd taels of silver they had saved up at home, and pressed her lips together without objecting, "How much does a book cost!?"

Pei Qin had no idea, she wasn’t a student of classical Chinese, and she couldn’t memorize the "Three Character Classic," some of the traditional characters she couldn’t even write. Buying a book to come back and study with everyone would at least get them to recognize some characters!

Zhang Dayun wiped the tears from his reddened eyes, stubbornly believing that Pei Qin was just angry because of the previous situation. As long as his family went to propose marriage in a grand manner, she would be happy, her anger would dissipate, and they could get married. He went back and urged Grandma Zhang to make the marriage proposal as soon as possible.
