Chapter 155: The Wealthy Pei Loaer (9)_1
The nearby residents, hearing her scolding, some of them came out and stood at the entrance of the alley, quietly gossiping. They said Pei Qin now had money and had made connections with a wealthy family, naturally, she’d be aiming for a higher branch! Grandma Zhang had disapproved before, and now she wanted to marry off her child, it seemed a bit like despising the poor and loving the rich! Now, the tables had turned and it was the other family that disapproved!
Seeing Madam Fang and the others going out to set up their stall again, villagers started greeting them, "Looks like it’s going to snow, and you’re still going out to set up the stall?"
From being overwhelmed by favor at first, Madam Fang had now learned to respond with a light smile, "It hasn’t started yet, we’ll pack up when it does!"
"You’re all such hard workers!" someone praised.
Madam Fang felt a little cheerful; their home situation was getting better and better. After settling the accounts for the sleds and hand-pulled carts after the New Year, they’d be able to build a new house come spring! With a new house, surely more suitable young men would come to propose!
No sooner had they left than Grandma Zhang started cursing in the village. Pei Qin thought she was good enough to snag a rich young master! Missing out on their family meant she wouldn’t find as good a match again!
Someone, unable to stand it anymore, retorted, "Pei Daya didn’t mean that! That rich family’s young master is just a few years old, still a little boy!" He had seen Pei Qin teaching Chang Yonglin to skateboard.
Grandma Zhang’s face turned green.
