The next moment.
Madam Li pulled the flower woman back and said intimately, "I've always wanted to find a good one for her. You know that I dote on my older granddaughter. If there's someone suitable for my older granddaughter, you'll know what she looks like now. Although she might not be as good as Sister Yan, she's not bad either. Let's talk about it later."
She began to lower her voice as she spoke, as if afraid someone would know.
Such things could not be said out loud.
The flower woman looked at Madam Li and glanced at Li Fu'er. She wiped her handkerchief beside her ear and smiled.
They talked some more.
The voices faded, and gradually no one knew what they had said.
Then laughter followed.
"Have you eaten, old sister?"
Madam Li stopped her and asked the flower woman softly, as if she couldn't wait to say it.
"I'm done. You know, Sister Li, you said that your family's food wasn't good. However, your family's food isn't bad."
The flower woman wiped her flushed face with a floral handkerchief and complimented her.
"Is that so."
Madam Li Wang was also happy to be praised.
She stood up with her.
After standing up, Madam Li directly said to everyone in the family, "You heard it too. I have something to say to my old sister. She came to look for me because she has something to say to me. We talked about it just now, but it's not convenient here. We need to talk in private. Now, I'll talk to my old sister. Old man, you…"
She wanted to say something else but stopped herself.
As for Second Brother…
She glanced at Second Brother. She didn't want to say anything to Second Brother, but Second Brother kept looking at her hesitantly. She had to—
She wanted to say that she wanted what was best for Sister Fu.
"Second Brother, I'm doing this for Sister Fu after all," she said. She couldn't be bothered to say anything else. As long as Second Brother knew, it was fine. He shouldn't ask too much. If it wasn't for Second Brother or her eldest grandson, she would directly sell the brat to get married silently.
If the brat was unwilling, she would just knock her out. There were many ways to knock her out.
Sister Yan mentioned it.
However, no matter what, her second son cared about Sister Fu. She sighed.
Second Li's face darkened. "Mother." He wanted to ask her more clearly. He didn't know that his mother wanted to marry Sister Fu off. If he had known earlier, he would have—
He had never thought of casually arranging an engagement for Sister Fu like this. In the eyes of the family, Sister Fu was not good. In his eyes, Sister Fu was good in everything. She was still young. In a few years, she could be engaged.
He wanted to talk to his mother.
"Now, let's not talk about this."
Madam Li Wang's face darkened as she interrupted him. In the end, she glanced at Sister Fu, Sister Yan, her grandson, and her daughter-in-law.
If Sister Yan had not said anything, that b*tch Li Fu'er should not have known anything. There was no accident at all!
She knew?
"Sister Fu, you…" She called out, as if she was about to say something but then looked like she was going to let it go. She was going to act like all grandmothers would do and let the flower woman go.
The flower woman looked at her. This Lady Li!
Madam Li held her arm. "Let's go. Sister Fu and Sister Yan can go together."
Without waiting for an answer, the two of them walked into the room arm in arm.
Li Fu'er watched.
Everyone watched.
"Big Sister," Li Yan'er called over her shoulder.
Li Fu'er glanced at her before she could say anything.
"Sister Fu," her father said, looking back at her. He started to say something.
Li Fu'er looked at her father and saw that everyone was looking at her too. What were they looking at?
That grandmother of hers really knew how to act! She didn't know why she acted like that when she could have just sold her.
Was it for her father? Thinking about everything that had happened when the flower woman arrived, what was Li Yan'er going to say?
"Big Sister, Grandma went in with the flower woman. I don't know what to say. The flower woman…" Li Yan'er said in a small voice. It seemed that she knew how to act.
Could it be that she discussed it with her grandmother?
Li Fu'er looked as if it was none of her business.
"Big Sister, don't you care?" Li Yan'er was emotional. Her expression was good and she was excited. She sized up her expression and asked.
Second Li also wanted to know.
"Sister Fu, Mother said…"
The Yu and Wang family members spoke in unison.
Li Fu'er could only get a word out. "What?" He then gave them a blank look.
The Li family members were stunned.
Li Fu'er had always known that her father was the best-looking person in the family and the best at studying. However, he was the oldest now and had the family in his heart.
Her first uncle was tall and steady, but he was the most thoughtful. Her third uncle was thin, short, and restrained. He looked more like a scholar than his father.
Eldest Aunt, and Eldest Uncle were indeed husband and wife. In addition, Third Aunt and Eldest Aunt were her grandmother's biological nieces. They looked alike and had the same personality.
Third Aunt Li Yan'er's mother was petty and liked to take advantage of others. She was also good-looking.
Grandpa was the head of the family. He was old-fashioned and he only valued benefits.
"Sister Fu, you didn't hear me. You might be getting engaged, but it's good that you're engaged." Madam Wang came back to her senses after being stunned. There was a glint in her eyes as Madam Yu nodded.
Li Fu'er said, "Father, what do you think?" She only asked her father.
Second Li had nothing to say.
After a while, he could not say anything. He did not know what his mother was thinking. He did not want to arrange a marriage for Sister Fu so early.
Even if she were to be engaged, she had to be engaged to the best person. He was worried.
"I understand, Father." Li Fu'er didn't need her father to tell her that.
"What do you know?" Something crossed Madam Yu's lean face. What did Li Fu'er know?
Li Yan'er and the others were speechless.
Li Fu'er said nothing.
"What?"
Old Master Li suddenly shook his chopsticks and put them down. Seeing them looking at him, especially Sister Fu, Old Master Li snorted. "Sister Fu, don't forget who you are."
"I won't forget," Li Fu'er said.
Old Master Li was displeased.
So was Madam Yu.
Li Fu'er got up and cleared the table. She asked if she should clean up the kitchen.
Madam Yu and Madam Wang looked at their father-in-law and could only put away their utensils.
Second Li said, "Sister Fu."
Li Fu'er said, "father, let's clean up first."
Second Li replied. "Okay."
Li Yan'er tugged at Li Fu'er. "Big Sister, you're really not anxious at all."
Li Fu'er shook off her hand and finished picking up the dishes. When she reached the kitchen, she didn't wash them and she walked out of the kitchen. Her first cousins were standing outside, looking at her with disdain in their eyes. They didn't look anything like her eldest cousin.
His eldest cousin's temperament was not like his family's. He was not like his eldest uncle and aunt.
The two in front of her were very similar to them.
They had looked at her the same way just now.
When she appeared at the dinner table last night, they did not dare to say anything when they saw her.
"You're a jinx. A jinx. How dare you come to the table with us. A jinx."
They both scolded her.
"Then what are you?"
Li Fu'er retorted.
They both said, "You still want to get married!"
Li Fu'er—
"Sister Fu." Second Li came over and asked what they were saying.
Li Fu'er ignored the two of them and walked towards her father. She did not even give him the food she had left for him. Just as she moved her hand, someone walked out. It was her grandmother.
Madame Li and the flower woman walked out of the house.
Madam Li thanked her and said a few more words.
The flower woman left.
After sending them off, Madam Li Wang walked over and said to Second Brother without looking at Sister Fu, "Second Brother, the flower woman said that there are two people. You have to know Sister Fu's fate. Ordinary people can't match up to her. Second Brother, let me tell you about these two people. If they aren't good enough, the flower woman mentioned a good place. I think we should send Sister Fu there."
"What?" Second Li asked.
Madam Li said that she had promised the flower woman.
Then she looked at Li Fu'er.
