Cannon Fodder Strategy

No one was able to finish the meal. Mrs. Liu originally thought that Duan Guilan was just talking casually. Unexpectedly, the next day when someone heard that Duan Guilan actually ran to the door of He's house, knelt down to admit her mistake, and invited the He family to come to Duan's house. When marrying her sister, Mrs. Liu almost fainted with her eyes open.

Duan Guilan was sent back by people from the He family. When they were sent back, the people from the He family looked very ugly and asked Mrs. Liu to take good care of their little daughter before leaving in a hurry.

After this incident, the Duan family became the laughing stock of Huaicheng. The He family and the Duan family did not get married, but they almost had a grudge. This incident even made the He family feel embarrassed. In addition, Duan Guilan directly talked about it last time. After talking about the fortune-telling girl, for some reason the Lu family no longer asked the Duan family’s manager or ordered clothing materials from the Duan family. The Lu family was originally a big customer of the Duan family. As a result, Duan The family has a great reputation, and the business has become much colder after being hit.

Ms. Liu lamented and sighed all day long, and the relationship between Duan Guilan and Lily became even more tense. She thought that she had admitted her mistake for her sister's marriage, and they all went to the He family to kneel down. In the past few years, she had only knelt down to God and her ancestors and father during the New Year and festivals. , who did you kneel to again?

Now she knelt down for Lily, but she didn't appreciate it. The relationship between the two sisters was no longer as harmonious as in the plot. But after Lily was seventeen, the reputation of the Duan family in the middle of Huaicheng was spread throughout the country. No matter how much money the Liu family gave, No one was willing to help the Duan family anymore. Not only Lily's own marriage was blocked, but when Duan Guilan was about to turn fifteen, not even a single person came to propose marriage.

The scene in the plot when Duan Baihe was criticized was still not avoided. Duan's business was gradually affected, and Mr. Liu's temper became more impatient than before. Such days finally passed slowly, and it was time for Shen Tengwen to appear in the plot.

For a year, Mrs. Liu suffered so much that her hair almost turned gray, and she lamented and sighed all day long. Duan Guilan was honest for a few days at first, but then she fell back into her old ways and ran out all day long. She was not worried about her family business at all. Mrs. Liu had nothing to do with her. She had already told her that if she didn't listen, she would get talked back to. It hurt her to hit her, so in the end she had no choice but to let her go.

The original owner's birthday was at the end of summer, and Lily was seventeen years old. She was about to reach the age of eighteen, and the eldest daughter's marriage had not yet been decided. The neighbors all started to laugh at her. Mrs. Liu's face was stretched out longer than a loofah all the time, like a firecracker. She usually spoke when someone caught her, and Lily tried not to talk to her. Duan Guilan disappeared early in the morning, and Mrs. Liu had a gloomy face and cursed. Call Lily around.

Since the business of Buzhuang has plummeted, Buzhuang can't hire so many people to help with the work. Naturally, most of the things have fallen on Lily. Mrs. Liu sat in front of the counter with a gloomy face. The two women had He was passing by the shop while laughing, turned around and glanced over, and walked into the shop. One was wearing a pink top and a long ginger skirt, and the other was wearing a green skirt with white flowers. He was about thirty years old. . Come in arm in arm. It doesn't look like I'm here to buy cloth.

Mrs. Liu sat lazily and didn't move, but Lily came forward to greet her. The woman in the green skirt with white flowers turned her head and glanced at Lily, her eyes lit up: "Hey. The girl is so handsome, but I can say that Already?" The Duan family has a good reputation. The two girls in the Duan family have reached their age one by one, but no matchmaker has come to the door. No one in Huaicheng knows this. Now, although the woman opened her mouth to praise Lily, when she heard the woman asked Lily if she had said anything about them, Mrs. Liu only I feel like this person is simply asking questions knowingly and just taking advantage of himself.

Her face darkened, and a surge of anger surged from the bottom of her heart. She stood up and was about to curse, but she saw Lily's calm look on her face, and felt a little angry in her heart. She thought that this eldest daughter was not close to her and she was not familiar with her. Lily, even her mother, doesn't know how to get close to her on weekdays. People take advantage of her for fun, so there is no need for her to be so anxious. But if someone can make her suffer, then Lily will know how good she is.

Thinking of this, Ms. Liu endured her anger and sat back down, her eyelids closed, as if she didn't hear what the woman asked, and a sneer at the corner of her mouth showing a good show.

"Thank you for the compliment, Auntie. Not yet. What kind of fabric does Auntie like? I'll measure it for you and cut it out for installation?" Although Liu's movements were secretive, they were still seen by Lily. She was not the original owner. He would not be saddened by Liu's actions, so he pretended not to notice and began to greet the guests.

"I'm not sure what I like. I just came in to have a look." When the woman in the green skirt heard Lily's question, she smiled awkwardly. The woman who originally pulled off the ginger skirt was about to leave. , unexpectedly Lily glanced at these two people and suddenly said:

"Okay, two aunties, don't leave in a hurry. I see that you are plump and have a fair complexion. If you wear apricot color, it will match your skin tone best. Then pull your waist up a little and embroider some colors on the hem of your skirt. When you move around, you will look like Lotus flowers grow every step of the way, and they look even more beautiful." The two people came in really not as if they were going to buy the cloth, but rather as if they were casually shopping. Lily was not surprised after hearing this woman's words, but she still asked for customers. . She saw that the guest in the ginger skirt was slightly thinner and had a serious expression. She was not smiling like the woman in the cyan skirt. She didn't even look at the cloth when she came in. She was dressed in a half-worn outfit, but that was... The handkerchief in her hand already looked old, so Lily turned around and took the basket of handkerchiefs from the store for the two of them to pick through.

"She's quite eloquent. She's really a sweetheart." The two women didn't want to buy anything at first, but now Lily was observing her words, which actually made both of them a little excited. The woman in the ginger skirt picked it up. After a while, the handkerchiefs were all Lily's own designs, and the fabrics used were cut from some better materials that she usually made clothes with. The woman couldn't put it down after seeing them. After asking whether these handkerchiefs were embroidered by Lily, , the originally talkative woman showed a bit of pity:

"Madam Duan, you haven't told me yet? My maiden name is Shen, and I have a nephew who is already eighteen years old. He is a very talented person. He studied with my cousin since he was a child. This year, he was selected as a scholar. He has a bright future in the future. "When she said this, her face showed a bit of pride: "Now my cousin-in-law is looking for a virtuous and virtuous wife for him. Mrs. Duan is handsome and eloquent. I think you have a good temper, too. Why do people outside spread such bad news?"

As soon as the woman finished speaking, she heard that her maiden name was Shen and that she had a cousin who was already eighteen years old. He was also a scholar and a scholar. There were not many such people in Huai City. She was almost certain that this woman was The nephew mentioned in the article is Shen Tengwen. It's just that it's not the time for the Shen family to recruit a bride. Unexpectedly, they can't escape the ones who are coming. The Shen family still comes to the door in this way.

Liu, who was sitting at the counter waiting to see Lily's joke, almost jumped up when he heard this.

Recently, she was worried about the marriage of her two daughters. Unexpectedly, people were sitting in the house, but she was overjoyed. These two seemingly inconspicuous women actually brought her such good news. Mrs. Liu He was so excited that he stood up and spoke hurriedly:

"Sister-in-law, please don't listen to other people's nonsense. Of my two daughters, the younger one is younger and although she has a lively temperament, she is also kind-hearted. The eldest daughter is even more knowledgeable and courteous. Her temperament as an embroiderer is not a big deal. You two have seen this. "You can't find anyone in a hundred miles around who is more outstanding than my daughter." Mrs. Liu first praised her two daughters. Seeing the embarrassed looks on the faces of the two women, she endured the excitement in her heart and said, I started to inquire about the cousin of Mrs. Shen’s mother’s family.

The woman saw Lily's appearance and said a few words to her. She really had a good impression of Lily. At this time, she also heard that she was already seventeen and had not mentioned her husband's family. The Duan family's family was also well off. Although her nephew He is young and promising, and has no worries about getting a wife, but if he can match the eldest lady of the Duan family, it will be a match made in heaven. In addition, if she can really arrange this marriage, it will be considered a good thing. Therefore, Mrs. Liu is determined. The woman accidentally started chatting, and the more they chatted, the more they felt that this matter had something to do with it.

"To tell you the truth, my nephew is very talented in literature. The county magistrate has also met him and said that he is talented and virtuous. If he can continue to study hard in the future, and God bless him, he might even win a prize. Those who have promoted people will seek official positions in the future." Mrs. Shen first praised her, and then hesitated: "It's just a lot of good things, but there is only one bad thing. My cousin's ancestors were also well off in the early years, but these years My family had fallen into decline early on and was in a bad situation. However, my cousin was an upright man and refused to get ill-gotten gains. In the past few years, he had devoted himself to educating my nephew. His years were wasted, and the family's wealth was not rich. I'm afraid if Compared with the family property, it cannot be compared with the Duan family. If Sister Duan is interested, I will go back and ask. If Sister Duan is interested in marrying off her daughter, just think that I am talking too much today. "

The Shen family is indeed poor. Although they are not so poor that they can't open the pot, they have made a living by pawning old things in the past few years.

It's just that scholars have a high status at this time, and Ms. Liu is also deeply afraid that her daughter will not be able to get married if she delays it any longer. Therefore, although she heard the woman say that the Shen family was poor, she still smiled and agreed, saying only: "Xian Xiang" If the Shen family likes her last appearance, she will only want her daughter to live well, and she will definitely not be one of those who despise poverty and love wealth.

Mrs. Liu gave her face like this, and Mrs. Shen also pursed her lips and smiled, then agreed to go back and ask, and would reply to Mrs. Liu tomorrow.

Afraid that such a good marriage would be snatched away by others, Ms. Liu gritted her teeth and said:

"Then I'm sorry to bother you. Thanks to you two for bringing such good news today. To be honest with you two, I worked hard to get my two daughters married until my hair turned gray. You two chose today. I won’t charge you for the things. It’s all thanks to the hard work of you two for running this trip for me. If it happens, I will be very grateful.” Although Ms. Liu has never been very generous, this matter affects two people. As a daughter for life, she is now gritting her teeth and being generous.
