561 Shameless Old Man

She was prettier than Qiao Mei and more meticulous in her work. She was also more tactful than Qiao Mei and was well-liked by everyone. If she had not been born into Qiao Zhuang’s family and was Qiao Qiang’s granddaughter instead, she would definitely have a better life than Qiao Mei!

She did not know what kind of sorcery Qiao Mei had used to make herself lose weight! Furthermore, Qiao Mei was now a hundred times prettier than her!

In the beginning, everyone despised Qiao Mei, but now, they all came to curry favor with her. Qiao Yu could not accept such a change.

If Qiao Mei did not use some tricks, why would a man like Xia Zhe fall for her?

Qiao Yu ran back to her house angrily. Just as she was about to push open the door and enter, she heard the people inside discussing something.

“Father, Old Guo from the neighboring village is willing to give 800 dollars as a betrothal gift and wants to marry Qiao Yu. They even say that they will give her three big gifts. It’s quite a good marriage. As long as you agree to it, I’ll go and look for them now,” Wang Qin said as she sat on the brick bed.

Qiao Zhuang’s eyes lit up when he heard the amount of 800 dollars. The most expensive betrothal gift his family had given was Wang Qin’s betrothal gift, which cost them 300 dollars. He did not expect Qiao Yu to be worth 800 dollars.

He did not raise this daughter for nothing! In the end, she still turned out to be useful.

“Are they really going to give us money? Are they lying to us?” Qiao Zhuang asked suspiciously.

“It’s absolutely true! Don’t you trust me? They say that it’s the same to them no matter which girl from our family marries into their family. It’s just that they want the girl to be capable, honest and not talkative,” Wang Qin said.

The fourth son, Qiao Liang, slapped his thigh and said agitatedly, “What you’re saying does not describe Qiao Yu at all! Isn’t this set to fail!”

Outsiders might not know it, but the family members all knew what kind of temper Qiao Yu had. She would only do the chores at home after getting beaten and scolded. Sometimes, she would steal food, and once she started talking, she would not stop.

Everyone in the room became worried when Wang Qin suddenly saw Qiao Hua doing needlework in the corner.

“Isn’t our eldest brother’s Qiao Hua about the same age as Qiao Yu? There’s not much difference between them. Qiao Hua is only two years younger than Qiao Yu. She meets all the requirements!” Wang Qin said as she pointed at Qiao Hua.

Liu Ying immediately stood up and retorted, “Our Xiao Hua is still so young! How can you want to marry our Xiao Hua off. As her mother, I can’t bear to part with her. She has to stay by my side for a few more years.”

Everyone knew that the Guo family in the neighboring village was a wolf’s den. They relied on the fact that they had a big family, and that their children knew how to earn money, to harm other people’s daughters. Old Guo was old enough to be Qiao Hua’s grandfather! How could he still have the cheek to marry a young girl!

Pfft! Shameless old man! You want to marry my daughter! Let’s talk about it in your next life!
