Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let’s Farm - Chapter 481

Chapter 481: Chapter 481: I’m Here to Propose

“Too high to climb? How is it too high to climb?!” the Zhang Family exclaimed.

“Once Chief Gu starts calling me Brother Tiehu, our two families will be equals,” Tong Tiehu responded lightly.

Zhang Family “…”

Brother Tiehu?

She couldn’t help but grit her teeth.

Even when our family’s property hadn’t been confiscated, Chief Gu never addressed Tong Tiehu like this!

Taking a deep breath, she gritted her teeth and said, “Once Sanlang marries Qiao Xiaomai, you will be on equal terms with Chief Gu.”

“Qiao Xiaomai and I have no family ties, why should I rely on her success?” Tong Tiehu retorted.

“You, your sons, even if I’m relying on someone, it should be you guys.”

Zhang Family, “…Dad, Xiaomai likes Sanlang very much, and Sanlang also has feelings for Xiaomai. Since that’s the case, let’s propose a marriage.”

Rely on?

Rely on a bunch of poor people who are scrounging for food in the land? Hardly.

We can only return to our former glory with Qiao Xiaomai’s help!

“Hold your tongue! Can you just spout such baseless nonsense? You dare to ruin Xiaomai’s reputation, I’ll let Xingda whip you! As a grandmother, your words are still so inappropriate!” Tong Tiehu’s face darkened at her words, and he rebuked her sternly.

Zhang Family felt wronged, “They are a couple, the whole village knows it.”

“Who said they’re a couple? Step forward!” Tong Tiehu asked, “Idle gossip that tarnishes Xiaomai’s reputation and fabricates stories about Sanlang, everyone seems to have a lot of free time, right?!”

Zhang Family “…”

While it is not entirely accurate to say Qiao Xiaomai and Tong Sanlang are clingy, they haven’t had much intimate contact in public other than a few hugs.

But which couple in the village interacts like this?

They are clearly a couple!

“Whether they are or not, we will know once we propose marriage,” Zhang Family said through gritted teeth.

“Do you want people to laugh at us?” Tong Tiehu roared angrily, “Who doesn’t know about Xiaomai’s growing value in the village? If I weren’t the village chief, do you think anyone would pay attention to our family? Stupid, clueless fool!”

“Go collect some firewood if you have nothing to do!”

“Then I will go back.”

Gathering firewood?

Upon hearing these two words, Zhang Family immediately turned around.

Who wants to go up the mountain to gather firewood in this heat?

Zhang Family stomped away angrily.

Tong Sanlang didn’t actually have feelings for Qiao Xiaomai!

He didn’t want to marry her!

Even Tong Tiehu said the difference between the two families was too large!

Zhang Family gritted her teeth; the grandfather and grandson had both refused, one claiming not to like Xiaomai, the other opposing the match.

Humph, did they think she had no other options?

Even if Tong Sanlang didn’t want to get married, he couldn’t stop Qiao Xiaomai from wanting to!

She didn’t go home, instead heading directly to Qiao Xiaomai’s house.

Even a blind man could see Qiao Xiaomai had feelings for Tong Sanlang!

When she arrived at Qiao Xiaomai’s house, Qiao Xiaomai was watering her chili plants with the Spiritual Spring water.

Only with these delicious chilis could she attract the soul of Yang Ye.

When she heard a knock at the door, she went to open it. Seeing Zhang Family, she was a little surprised, “Auntie, why are you here?”

“What, not welcoming me?” Zhang Family snorted.

“Welcome, welcome, please come in.” Qiao Xiaomai looked at Zhang Family’s flushed cheeks and stepped aside to let her in.

Zhang Family entered with a stern face. Seeing that only Qiao Xiaomai was in the yard, she asked, “Where is your father?”

“He went to the fields.”

“He still goes to work in the fields?”

“He’s used to being busy, can’t sit idle,” Qiao Xiaomai explained with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Family cursed under her breath, then got straight to the point, “Xiaomai, I came over this time to propose a marriage to you, are you willing to marry Sanlang?”
