Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let's Farm

Chapter 258: I’ll Marry You, Xiaomai!



The process of a birthday banquet in this place was quite simple. A gong sound, and the banquet begun.

The invited opera troupe would sing a birthday song, followed by Tong Tiehu, the birthday star, saying a few words. Finally, the children and grandchildren of the Tong family would present their gifts in front of everyone.

Finally, another gong sound, and the banquet officially started. Food was served!

The young lads ran around holding trays, delivering plates of cold dishes to each table.

Qiao Xiaomai, the head chef, began to stir-fry the hot dishes.

The Tong family was well-off, half of the dishes served at the banquet were meat, and coupled with Qiao Xiaomai’s good cooking skills, the courtyard and the streets on both sides were bustling with excitement.

People were whispering into each other’s ears, praising the food.

Qiao Changshun tasted the delicious food on the table, his wrinkled face glowing with pride as he heard everyone praising Qiao Xiaomai’s cooking skills. He felt proud!

Having lived for decades, this was the proudest moment of his life!

“Changsun, Xiaomai’s cooking is comparable to the master chef of the Restaurant, isn’t it?” A villager at the table chuckled, “You guys might as well open a restaurant in town.”

Qiao Changshun almost laughed his mouth off, but modestly replied, “No, no. She’s just a girl, she can’t compare to a professional chef.”

Why open a restaurant? It’s good enough to be a rich landowner in Anping Village.

“Say, Xiaomai’s of age, has her marriage been settled?” Someone at the table asked again.

Although Zhuang Luhe running away had greatly tarnished Qiao Xiaomai’s reputation, now the Qiao family had both land and money.

This kind of solid wealth was probably unmatched by the Tong family. Compared to this substantial wealth, what does a vague reputation matter? Despite Jiang Zhuangzhuang being a fool who likes to fight, there were still many girls willing to marry him, let alone Qiao Xiaomai who was beautiful and capable.

Money is the real deal.

Therefore, even with Zhuang Luhe as a mother, many people in Anping Village have begun to show interest in Qiao Xiaomai’s marriage affairs.

“No, not yet. We’re in no rush.” Mentioning this, Qiao Changshun shook his head.

“What kind of person does Xiaomai like?” The person asked again.

Qiao Changshun chuckled, “She’s shy, she’s never talked about this, but she’s not in a hurry.”

He wasn’t really naive, he had sensed the hidden intentions in this person’s question.

But now that he had set his sights on Tong Sanlang as his son-in-law, he had to turn other men down.

The questioner noticed his subtle refusal and didn’t ask anymore.

However, he wasn’t giving up on Qiao Xiaomai yet. As long as she wasn’t married, there was still a chance.

At this time, there was another person interested in Qiao Xiaomai: Jiang Zhuangzhuang.

The Jiang family’s people also came to Tong Tiehu’s birthday celebration, including Jiang Zhuangzhuang.

Although Jiang Zhuangzhuang was a bit dim, he loved good food. Previously, he wanted to marry the original owner because of her culinary skills.

Now, Qiao Xiaomai’s cooking skills were several notches higher than the original owner’s. After a taste, he immediately turned his head towards the direction of the big shed.

Then he saw the familiar figure of Qiao Xiaomai.

“Xiaomai, Xiaomai.” He clapped his hands and started to giggle foolishly, standing up intending to go find Qiao Xiaomai.

“Hey, stop there!” Seeing this, Jiang’s third daughter-in-law hastily stopped him.

She had purposely kept Jiang Zhuangzhuang from seeing Qiao Xiaomai for more than two months, expecting that he’d forget her with his simple mind.

Who would have thought that he’d remember her as soon as he tasted the food!

“Xiaomai Xiaomai Xiaomai.” Jiang Zhuangzhuang was tall and strong, he ignored his mother’s attempts to pull him back, walking towards Qiao Xiaomai on his own, giggling like a fool.

“Hey!” Jiang’s third daughter-in-law was anxious, beckoning her daughter-in-law sitting nearby to help stop Jiang Zhuangzhuang.

In a gathering like this, she couldn’t let her foolish son run amok.

But Jiang Zhuangzhuang was so tall and strong that not even three women could hold him back.

He continued to giggle as he walked towards Qiao Xiaomai, even screaming out, “Xiaomai Xiaomai I want to marry you.”

This shout was so loud that the entire courtyard fell silent.

Including Yang Ye and his group who were about to enter the courtyard..
