LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 1 Joe Ayaka
Here is a rice coupon for two hundred catties of rice. Your eldest daughter is mine.
In the mid-range decoration of the living room, a 40-year-old man was offering the bride price to Hou Manrong.
The haggard Hou Manrong was sitting opposite the man, with a dining table between them. She lowered her eyes in embarrassment, looked at the rice coupons on the table, and silently pursed her dry lips.
There is no light in the living room, and the energy is very tight now. As long as there is still a little visibility in the house, if you can not turn on the light, don't turn on the light.
In the dim light, seeing that Hou Manrong didn't speak, the man who gave the rice coupons stretched out his big hands, bent down, put his palms on the rice coupons, and looked up at her with a hint of complacency and carelessness. said:
You also know that it's the end of the world. These materials are very hard to come by. I can buy seventeen or eight women for two hundred catties of rice. I'll give you so much because of your eldest daughter's face.
He seemed very sure that for this struggling family, a rice coupon of two hundred catties was an irresistible temptation.
Hou Manrong, who looked about the same age as this man, had her chapped lips trembling slightly, as if emphasizing, she said in a low voice:
My eldest daughter is only 18 years old and she is still studying.
Judging by her expression, she was still mostly unwilling.
It's not too young. If your little daughter is not too fat, someone should come to hire her.
The man said, with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes. The two daughters of the Qiao family, one is 18 years old and looks like a fairy. Like a sow, she can be as fat as she wants, and as ugly as she wants.
No one would have believed these two sisters if he hadn't said that they were two sisters.
Hou Manrong was silent for a long time again, her sparse eyelashes trembled a few times before she said with difficulty:
Brother Bo, let me think about it again. The child's father has not come back after going out to do a mission. It's very difficult for me.
The man called Boge, with a sneer on his face, patted the rice coupon on the table with his big palm,
Sister-in-law Qiao, I just came here today with a dowry gift for Brother Qiao's sake. You also know the current environment outside. Everyone's life is difficult. Sometimes, don't be too ignorant of current affairs.
These words were a little harsh, and there was a strong threat, which made Hou Manrong raise her eyebrows.
Perhaps it was this man named Boge who pushed her too hard. Hou Manrong's thin face looked particularly sad in the dim light. She lowered her voice and said with a little excitement:
You also call me sister-in-law, and you also call my husband brother
They are all about the same age and her generation, but now they can shamelessly come here and say that they want to marry her eldest daughter, Hou Manrong feels swollen, but because of the man in front of him, it is really not easy to offend.
So she kept her words under wraps, and she didn't dare to speak too clearly, for fear of tearing the last gentleness, this brother Bo would do something to the three of them while Qiao Pengfei was away.
Bogo's face showed a fierce look. He sat on the spot, looked at Hou Manrong quietly, then sneered again, and was about to speak, when the sound of a key opening the door came from the entrance.
Qiao Ayaka's voice sounded from outside the open door,
Mom, I'm back.
This is the extremely fat second daughter of the Qiao family, Qiao Lingxiang.
Hearing Qiao Lingxiang's voice coming back, Hou Manrong just found an excuse, and said to Boge angrily:
If you marry, marry my second daughter. Anyway, no one wants her, so I will take her away tonight.
Because he was sure that Bo Ge would not agree, Hou Manrong deliberately used such words to prevaricate him. It wasn't that Hou Manrong didn't give Bo Ge any face. He wanted to marry her daughter, and Hou Manrong was willing to marry her, so he would marry Qiao Lingxiang.
The door was opened. In such a world, Qiao Lingxiang, who was still fat enough to be a round ball, was taken aback when she heard her mother's words in the living room. Standing outside the door, she didn't know whether she should go in or not.
It seems that adults are talking about very important things, so she should stop going up to find a sense of presence.
But Qiao Lingxiang didn't know that she was so big, even if she didn't want to, she still had a sense of presence if she didn't speak.
In the living room, Boge smiled angrily, without looking at the fat sow outside the door, got up and said:
Don't use such words to prevaricate me. I'm looking at your eldest daughter, Mrs. Qiao. I'll give you three days to think about it. After three days, I'll come and lead her.
After finishing speaking, Boge picked up the rice coupons on the table, turned around and walked out the door.
Still standing outside the door, Qiao Lingxiang, who was wearing a purple jumper sweater size 5X1, had short ear-length hair cut with some natural curls. When she saw Boge coming out, she hurriedly lowered her head, revealing her three-tiered chin, and let Boge come out. Brother go out.
Naboko glanced at Qiao Lingxiang full of disgust, then stopped suddenly, lowered his head and asked:
I said, did your mother feed you pig feed? Why are you so fat?
These words were full of malice and strong sarcasm. Qiao Lingxiang, who was standing outside the door, suddenly raised her head. She felt disgusted for a while, and asked not very politely:
none of your business?
Tsk tsk, people are ugly and like to play tricks.
Bo Ge shook his head at her. He wanted to slap the sow, but he thought that today he wanted to marry the eldest daughter of the Qiao family, and it was not good to beat the second daughter of the Qiao family before she got married.
Just sneered, whistled, went out directly to the safety stairs without saying a word.
The current energy supply is very tight. All the elevators in the high-rise buildings in the city have been stopped. Everyone, regardless of the level of the floor, has to climb the stairs.
After Boge left, Qiao Lingxiang entered the room in a depressed mood. She stood at the entrance, looking at the dark room. Her mother was sitting alone at the dining table in the living room. She opened her fat mouth, still timidly. shouted,
Mom, I'm back.
He asked again, Why is that person here? Mom?
Didn't I hear that?
Hou Manrong suddenly yelled loudly. She patted the table and got up, and yelled at Qiao Lingxiang with red eyes:
Do you have to say it twice? I didn't hear you coming back? Why are you so annoying? Didn't you see that the adults were doing something? I've never seen someone as ignorant as you. You have to make me angry, right? Can't you make me less angry like your sister?
After a while, Hou Manrong treated Qiao Lingxiang as an emotional punching bag, and blasted Qiao Lingxiang who had just returned home.
The surprisingly fat Qiao Lingxiang stood there in astonishment. What did she say? Or did you ask something that shouldn't be asked? Or did something that shouldn't be done?
Why did my mother yell at her when she obviously didn't do anything?
Qiao Lingxiang looked at the mother who looked like an angry lioness, opened her mouth, and said honestly:
I'm just asking, Mom, if you don't want to tell me, you don't have to answer me.
Hi, I'm here again, new story, cheers everyone!
