Chapter 142: Chapter 130: High Standards (4K for Monthly Pass Vote)_1

Qian Yixiu sized him up and pouted as she said, "I heard your family has fields and land, and you’ve even built a new house with roof tiles, so you shouldn’t be short of the little wages my family owes you, right? Why are you still coming to my house to work odd jobs?"

Wan Dazhong laughed and said, "Who doesn’t want more money in this world? Right now, there’s nothing to do at home, and hunting isn’t good in the winter, so I’m out doing some odd jobs to earn a little cash."

Qian Yixiu pursed her lips and said, "You don’t have to make it sound so nice. I don’t believe any of your nonsense. Let me tell you, it’s pointless for you to keep trying to impress us. My young aunt is not going to fancy you. Just look at yourself, so dark and strapping, not handsome at all, and you’re already so old. Which twelve or thirteen-year-old girl would fancy someone like..."

Qian Yixiu simply wanted to anger him into leaving so he would stay away from her family in the future.

Wan Dazhong was somewhat surprised that Little Bean would say such things. When he laughed, his teeth looked whiter. He didn’t say a word, just raised his eyebrows and continued to listen to Qian Yixiu insulting him.

Qian Yixiu continued to earnestly persuade him, "You should recognize your shortcomings; don’t aim too high. As the saying goes, gongs go with cymbals, zucchinis match with pumpkins. You should find someone like Madam Hua for yourself, stop bothering to come to our house. It’s futile anyway; my young aunt is very picky. How could she ever fancy you? My young aunt is so beautiful, so delicate, so fair, and so gentle, kind, and hardworking. Our family has a girl who has just blossomed and a host of suitors from our doorstep to the east end of the village. Among them are many young talents and handsome youths, how could they possibly fancy you, you big black bear..."

Before Qian Yixiu could finish her statement, Qian Manxia’s voice of indignation came from behind, "Qian Yixiu, I am going to tell my mom you are spouting nonsense to strangers and embarrassing us, wu wu wu..."

Startled, Qian Yixiu turned her head. Her young aunt had already run crying towards the old courtyard. Qian Hua and Qian Xiaoyu were still standing there stunned, probably shocked by what she said.

Qian Yixiu also felt a bit foolish. Her young aunt was innocent and cared about her image, and even if the comments were meant to praise her, hearing such things said in front of a man would embarrass her. If she really did report what Qian Yixiu had said to Lady Wu, Yixiu might end up getting beaten.

Angered, she glared fiercely at Wan Dazhong. He had seen Qian Manxia and the others approaching, but had kept silent, allowing her to continue spouting nonsense. Angrily, she said, "Not only are you dark in appearance, but your heart is dark too. You saw my aunt coming, but you still let me keep on talking."

Wan Dazhong chuckled and said, "So you knew your aunt would be upset hearing these words. Why then did you say them?" He clicked his tongue several times, "They say the Qian family’s child is smart and clever, it’s true. Not only is your tongue slick, but you know quite a bit too. Impressive, impressive."

Qian Yixiu rolled her eyes and said to Qian Hua, "This dark brute is disrespectful to the host family. I also saw him trying to steal something just now. We can’t let him keep working at our house." After speaking, she ran back to the old courtyard.

When she arrived at the door of her young aunt’s small room, she heard the sound of wailing from inside, filled with such grievance.

Qian Yixiu knocked on the door and called out, "Auntie, open the door, Yixiu has something to talk to you about."

"Wu wu wu, I’m not talking to you anymore, I won’t talk to you ever again." Qian Manxia continued crying and didn’t open the door.

The sound of such distressed crying made Qian Yixiu feel extremely uncomfortable; had she bullied a child again?

After a while, Lady Wu arrived and asked, "What happened to Auntie Xia?"

Qian Yixiu shook her head indicating that she didn’t know either.

Lady Wu knocked on the door for a while, but Qian Manxia didn’t open it.

At dinner time, Qian Manxia came out, her eyes red and swollen from crying, with her little nose also bright red.

Cheng Yue was alarmed by her appearance, her own eyes turning red as she kept asking, "What’s wrong, young aunt? Did someone bully you?"

Qian Yeejin said, expressing that if someone had annoyed her, just to say the word and she would figure out a way to get revenge for her.

Qian Sangui also expressed surprise, "What’s wrong, Auntie Xia? Who annoyed you?"

The young girl sniffled and said, "Nobody annoyed me, I just wasn’t careful and fell."

Lady Wu scolded, "Look at how little self-respect you have, you’re so grown up and you cry like this over a fall."

Qian Sangui said, "Girls must cry only if they fall and hurt themselves. If it really hurts, let’s send someone to fetch Doctor Lin."

Qian Manxia shook her head, "I’m alright now."

Qian Yixiu was deeply moved by her kind-hearted young aunt and went out of her way to serve her. She helped scoop rice for her, picked meat for her, and even massaged her shoulders, being absolutely obsequious.
