Chapter 127 Raising a Cat to Become a Husband 5
After hearing the words "the hope of the whole family", the voices of He's parents suddenly stopped.
"Cisheng, let me tell you what is good about you! You are just too kind!"
"You only know how to pamper your sister, right? We are doing this for your own good. If Tiantian can really pick the herbs, why would you worry about these material things, my son?"
Even He Tiantian grabbed He Cisheng's sleeve and looked at him with starry eyes.
Her brother is still the best to her. In this world, her brother treats her better than her parents! It’s her fault that she is so useless that she can’t even go up the mountain to collect herbs to earn money to help her brother...
He Ci Sheng saw everything, but he only smiled with a doting yet helpless look.
This matter cannot be solved in a hurry. What's more, even if Jiang Wan doesn't take Tiantian to the mountain to collect herbs, he still has other ways to make money.
Some time ago, Jiang's father revealed his intention to marry the two families. Although he didn't say it explicitly, after he died of a serious illness, Jiang Wan was just an orphan. Where else could she go except marrying him?
Seeing that the Jiang family had built a new house, and that both father and daughter were wearing new clothes and using brand new furniture, he knew that Jiang Wan must have made a lot of money digging herbs. When Jiang Wan married him, these things would sooner or later fall into his hands, so why should he be so anxious? Forcing Tiantian to go up the mountain would damage his reputation if something really happened.
As a scholar, he couldn't afford to be known for being harsh on his sister.
......
Jiang Wan was not idle either. In addition to helping prepare meals for the workers, she concentrated on going to the town to get and boil medicine. She managed to keep Jiang's father's complexion rosy, and Xiao Hei was also kept smooth and plump.
During this period, many people came to see Jiang's father for medical treatment. Originally, only a small number of people who were too poor to afford the medicine would not charge Jiang's father a penny. Now that they know that the Jiang family lives a good life, a group of people think it is natural that they will not pay for the medicine, and Jiang's father is also happy.
Being in a good mood is also part of curing the disease. Jiang Wan didn't pay much attention to him. He just locked all the expensive medicinal herbs he bought from the town for his father and Xiao Hei in his room.
Father Jiang saw this, and he knew his own character well, so he acquiesced. However, when he was taking the medicine, he couldn't help but ask Jiang Wan about the prescription. Most of the medicines contained precious ingredients, and he realized upon careful consideration that two hundred taels was not enough to pay for the medicine. As a result, Jiang Wan had to fool around every time.
Three months later, the father and daughter moved into a brand new big house, and Father Jiang's health gradually improved.
Originally, because of her medical skills, Jiang Wan was a popular choice in the eyes of many matchmakers. Now that the Jiang family has built a big house and there is only one daughter in the family, Jiang Wan, the matchmakers are almost breaking down the door.
Unfortunately, Jiang Wan hasn’t found anyone he likes yet.
One day, Jiang Wan was squatting on the ground playing with a little black cat, but Jiang's father approached him, looking as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.
Xiao Hei's injuries have mostly healed. The kitten's eyes are like sparkling emeralds, and his fur is soft and smooth, feeling like the most precious silk. Jiang Wan is becoming more and more attached to him.
Unfortunately, every time she couldn't help wanting to bury herself in the kitten's arms and suck wildly, Xiao Hei would stare at Jiang Wan's head with his cat eyes wide open, raise his meat pads and pound on it, then struggle to break free, making Jiang Wan furious...
While playing happily with Xiao Hei, Father Jiang suddenly said, "Wan Wan, you are also at the age of marriage. Do you have someone in mind?"
These matters of the boudoir should be asked by the mother to her daughter, but unfortunately Jiang Wan's mother passed away early, so he had no choice but to do it for her. Even so, when talking about this topic, Jiang's father still felt very embarrassed.
Jiang Wan pretended to be angry, and sure enough, Xiao Hei believed it and kept trying to get closer, making long meows. Until he got close enough, Jiang Wan was quick to pick up the cat in his hands.
While playing with the cat, Jiang Wan responded, "Don't worry, Daddy. Wan Wan has someone she loves. She only wants to marry that person in this life. I won't marry anyone else except him!"
Upon hearing this, not only Father Jiang, but even the kitten in Jiang Wan's hand widened his eyes, "Who is it? Whose son is it?"
The man and the cat all looked over, but Jiang Wan was in a dilemma, as if hesitant and anxious.
Father Jiang was immediately anxious and urged, "As long as you tell me, I will arrange it for you soon. My daughter is intelligent, kind and brave. Who wouldn't be worthy of her?"
Hearing this, Jiang Wan bit her lip and said shyly, "It's... it's the young man who bought my herbs that day..."
With only such a vague range, Jiang's father wanted to find out more, but Xiao Hei, who was held in Jiang Wan's hand, opened his mouth wide and was reluctant to close it.
Jiang Wanxiao was helpless. After manually closing his eyes for him, he said angrily, "Xiao Hei, what are you shocked about? I'm talking about the young man who bought the medicine, not you!"
This time, Honeysuckle finally came to her senses.
What did he just hear? The benefactor likes him? And she wants to marry him?
Are you kidding me? He turned into a human being so ugly that there was not even a cat hair on his body, but his benefactor actually liked him?
No wonder the benefactor always does excessive things to herself, it turns out the root cause is this, she wants Mao Mao to marry her!
However, since it is the benefactor's request, the cat will definitely satisfy it!
......
Ever since he knew his daughter's feelings, Jiang's father sent away all the matchmakers who came to propose marriage. He now just wanted to find out where the young man who bought the herbs that day was!
He Ci Sheng, who had been waiting for Jiang's father to come to discuss the engagement, was overjoyed when he saw that Jiang's father rejected the matchmaker who came to the door. His tense heart, which had been tense for many days, finally relaxed.
Fortunately, when the matchmakers came to his house, he resisted the urge to go and ask. If he had bowed his head first, it would have seemed that his family was being too demanding, and he would have lost his dignity as a scholar.
He knew that how could those people compare to him. All things are inferior except reading, and he is a scholar!
He Ci Sheng thought he could rest easy, thinking that Jiang's father would come to him sooner or later, but he didn't expect that there was no news for several days. He couldn't bear it any longer, so he asked He Tiantian to find out indirectly.
But who would have thought that when he learned the news, He Ci Sheng could no longer hold it in, and his usually calm expression became badly distorted.
"Are you sure what you heard is true? Has Jiang Wan really decided on the right candidate?" He Cisheng grabbed He Tiantian's arm, with a hint of cruelty in his eyes.
He Tiantian shivered violently with fear. She had never seen such a brother before, but she still nodded obediently, "Yes, it was said that the young man bought Jiang Wan's herbs. Now the two of them have met again by chance. The man is unmarried and the woman is unmarried. They have developed feelings for each other and decided to get married..."
