Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder's Comeback in the Era Tales

Chapter 481: Chapter 481: The Vicious Mother-in-law 27

Director Han certainly carries the aura of a government official, quite different from ordinary men. Though a bit older, he maintains himself well, looking like a young man of about twenty-four or twenty-five.

Moreover, he has fair skin and a refined demeanor, with glasses adorning his face, unmistakably a cultured individual.

He possesses the charm of a mature man.

Compared to the villagers, he puts them to shame.

Ma Xiangling took an immediate liking to him.

Her cheeks blushed, and her heart skipped beats; when Director Han’s gaze fell upon her, she shyly lowered her head.

Right now, she wasn’t bothered about him being a widower or having to become a stepmother if she married him; Ma Xiangling only wished to meet with Director Han and marry him to live a happy life.

Yuan Chun bought ten meters of fabric and various other items with minor defects; she also purchased soy sauce and salt, and mother and daughter walked out of the supply and marketing cooperative carrying a pile of things to the tricycle waiting outside.

Ma Laoer couldn’t wait to ask, ”Mom, Lingzi, how is Director Han?”

Yuan Chun smiled, ”He looks good, like a remarkable person. Appearance-wise, he seems younger than his actual age, and his job and family background are excellent. We just don’t know if he’d be interested in Lingzi.”

Ma Xiangling’s pretty face showed some tension, ”Mom, didn’t you tell Second Sister-in-law to speak with Director Han about this matter quickly? Given that Director Han met me today, he must have an impression; if he’s interested, he’ll send the matchmaker to propose.”

If he’s not interested in her, he wouldn’t come to propose.

To climb the social ladder through Director Han, Wang Yingying acted swiftly; by the eighth day of December, the Han Family had sent a matchmaker to the Ma family to propose.

The Han Family placed extraordinary importance on this proposal, not only bringing the matchmaker but also Director Han’s elder sister.

After Yuan Chun and Ms. Han exchanged words, the marriage was settled, with a dowry of 388 yuan, along with ”three turns and a sound” and four sets of clothes.

With the Han Family eager to have a bride join them for the New Year, they came to arrange the engagement on the tenth day of December with gifts.

Among those present were Director Han’s parents, his two brothers, Ms. Han, and Director Han himself.

Additionally, Wang Yingying, the matchmaker who facilitated the union, also returned.

Yuan Chun didn’t hold back, going out to bring back two wild chickens, two wild rabbits, and a seven-to-eight-pound grass carp, along with vegetables such as cabbage, spinach, radishes, and lettuce from the garden, creating a lavish table full of dishes.

She also invited several senior elders and the village leader from the Ma family clan to accompany them.

Thus, the marriage was agreed upon.

The date for the gift-giving was set for the sixteenth day of December.

The wedding date was set for the twenty-sixth day of December.

Quickly, the sixteenth day of December arrived; Yuan Chun went up the mountain again, bringing back two wild chickens, two wild rabbits, a seven-to-eight-pound grass carp, three pounds of fatty pork, and five pounds of ribs.

On this day, many people from the Han Family came, bringing a sewing machine, a radio, a watch, and a brand-new bicycle.

Additionally, there was a thick red envelope.

Inside was 188 yuan.

And four sets of new clothes.

Among them was a bright red woolen coat that Ma Xiangling specifically requested.

Upon receiving the clothes, Ma Xiangling immediately put on the bright red woolen coat and happily walked around in front of the villagers watching the commotion, making the young girls and wives in the village both envious and jealous.
