The Fierce Farm Girl Has A Secret Space

Chapter 2041: Chapter 2041: Ma Laiwang (3)

Yang Baihe awkwardly laughed twice: "Dani... Xinxin, your grandparents have long regretted it. They shouldn’t have treated you like that back then. Really, I regret it too..." Truly, I regret it deeply. If I had treated them a bit better in the past, would I also be able to live in such a big house now? I might even meet real wealthy young men, and wouldn’t have to marry into the Ma Family...

Yang Ruxin slightly raised her eyebrow: "What exactly are you trying to say? I don’t have time to deal with you..."

"Take a look, shouldn’t you prepare a bit of dowry for me?" Yang Baihe hastily stated her objective, "Not much, just a hundred or eighty taels will do. Really, I won’t ask for more, take a look..."

"Xinxin, why are you out here and not going inside?" At this moment, Dong Wenxiu came out, but hesitated upon seeing Yang Baihe.

"Big sister-in-law." Yang Baihe rushed over upon seeing Dong Wenxiu, "You are my true sister-in-law now..."

Yang Ruxin swiftly pulled her mother away with a quick hand and her face darkened: "Yang Baihe, is my attitude too good?"

Yang Baihe shivered immediately: "No... it’s just, I feel like I’m getting married, and my sister-in-law shouldn’t ignore it, right? After all, we’re all family, so..."

"Get lost!" Yang Ruxin’s eyes narrowed slightly.

Yang Baihe was so frightened that she stepped back two steps, but because her body was too fat, she accidentally fell to the ground. It seemed to hurt, so she cried out loud.

Yang Ruxin furrowed her brows.

"Baihe." At this moment, a man wearing patched clothes ran over, struggling to pull Yang Baihe up from the ground, "It’s cold sitting on the ground."

Though Yang Baihe stood up, she cried even harder.

"I’m Ma Laiwang, we’ve met before..." the man said with a sheepish smile, looking somewhat uneasy, "She... she..."

Yang Ruxin smiled. This was the man Yang Baihe was engaged to. She had seen him before, but he always lowered his head and didn’t speak, only giving a slight smile. He came over to help when they were building the house, but she didn’t know his name.

Yang Baihe’s engagement was due to Yang Peili’s influence. It’s unclear what provoked the old man, but he no longer believed his daughter was destined for wealth. He insisted on marrying her off, and Yang Anshi couldn’t change his mind.

It was awkward, though. Even though the old house agreed to arrange a marriage for Yang Baihe, no matchmakers came. Eventually, old Yang had to beg the village chief, and the chief intervened, resulting in matchmakers visiting. But they only proposed cripples or old bachelors, along with sickly people needing a bride for good fortune. Ultimately, Ma Laiwang’s conditions appeared to be the best.

Although the Ma Family was poor, at least Ma Laiwang himself was healthy and his looks were acceptable.

Yang Baihe wasn’t willing, but the old man insisted. If she didn’t choose, he’d find someone for her, and bind her to the bridal sedan if necessary...

Yang Baihe was intimidated.

She considered running away again but searched the house thoroughly and didn’t find a single coin. Without money, wouldn’t she starve if she left?

As for Yang Anshi, although she was still fond of her youngest daughter, two strokes had already collapsed her health, rendering her speech ineffective. Forget about doing anything else, so she could only watch as the old man arranged the engagement for the youngest daughter.
