Chapter 177: Boss Song Looking for a Son-in-Law
Thinking of this, Boss Song called his two daughters over. They had learned a little from their two older brothers, but that was all they knew.
Boss Song showed the two of them the letter from Aunt Song and the others. They only understood half of it, so they had to ask Boss Song,
"Your second and third aunts have found a few good families for you two. Take a look at what's written in the letter and tell me if there's any you like.
I will arrange a meeting with them when the time comes. If it is suitable, we can decide on it as soon as possible. Your brother and his friends will go out after they finish their exams."
Song Chunhua and the other person looked at each other in bewilderment. They didn't expect that the letter was about finding a husband for them, so they carefully read the letter again. If they didn't understand something, they asked Song Lao Da.
After the two of them understood clearly, they were delighted. After all, these people were just like what their father said, marrying them would definitely bring them no worries about food and clothing.
But they were a little unwilling in their hearts, because when their mother was alive, she often told them that she would find two good families for them in the future.
When they get married, they will be wives, they don't have to do anything, they will wear gold and silver, and have maids to serve them.
If their two elder brothers could pass the examination to become a tongsheng and then a xiucai, they would have a better foothold in their husband's family.
They were indeed twins. They looked at each other and Song Chunhua said with some embarrassment, "Dad, can we wait until my brothers have finished their Tongsheng exams before discussing marriage?"
Boss Song didn't expect to hear such words. He was stunned for a moment, then asked in disbelief, "Why?"
Song Chunhua looked at Boss Song's expression and was a little afraid to speak, but Song Qiushi was not afraid. She said confidently,
"After my brothers take the Tongsheng exam, if they pass, we can find a better family. If there is a scholar in the family, we can also find a scholar.
We don’t want to be country people. We want to marry into a good family, wear gold and silver, and have people to serve us. Even people like my second uncle’s family can live in such a big house. We want to live better than them.”
Boss Song calmly asked back, "What if your brother doesn't pass the exam?"
Song Qiushi rolled his eyes and replied, "Then wait for the next one. Anyway, we are not very big now, so we can look for it first."
Boss Song didn't expect his two daughters to be so ambitious. Let's not talk about whether Dalang and the others will pass the exam.
If they marry like this, they will make other people's families miserable and turn them into a second daughter-in-law like themselves.
He thought about it in his mind and decided to find a husband's family for them that could control them.
He is not worried that others will bully them. With the way they are, it is probably better for them not to bully others.
Now he is still strong and healthy, if they are really bullied, he can help them get justice.
When he is gone, Dalang and his family will take care of his two younger sisters. I believe his second brother's family will not stand idly by.
Since he had made up his mind, he chose the first butcher introduced by Aunt Song from among these people. His family had a powerful mother-in-law who would not allow her daughter to mess around at home.
The second one is the son of the eldest brother of Song Sangu's sister-in-law. I heard from my third sister that this child is smooth and capable. He should be able to handle a character like my daughter.
He made up his mind and announced his decision to Song Chunhua and her sister without hesitation, and finally let the two sisters choose which one to choose.
Song Chunhua and her sister did not expect this result. Song Qiushi was the first to break down and burst into tears.
"Dad, are you still my dad? Why don't you want us to be well? Do you have to marry us to such a family?
Why do people like Song Sanniang live so well, but we can only marry pig butchers and farmers!
Aren't you helping my second uncle run the store? You can definitely find a better family for us, right? "
Seeing her sister like this, Song Chunhua also started to cry, "Mom was driven away by them, and Dad wants to drive us away too.
Even if you want to marry us off, you should find a better family and let us marry someone who kills pigs and farms.
If your brothers become officials in the future and say that their brother-in-law is a butcher and farmer, will you be proud?
It turns out that only mother treats us sincerely, woo woo."
Boss Song didn't expect them to think this way. He couldn't help but laugh at himself for not teaching his daughters well, causing them to become like this.
He said in a deep voice, "You became like this because I, as a father, was irresponsible and did not teach you well.
But your mother was sent away, it was not your second uncle's family's fault, it was your mother who made a mistake, and if she made a mistake, she must accept the punishment, and so do you.
You only see that your second uncle's family is doing well now, but you don't see how badly they lived before.
Your father was useless before, which caused your second uncle's family to live like that. Your second uncle is still willing to support me now. It is our family that owes your second uncle, not your second uncle's family that owes us.
If you marry into the two families I have chosen for you and live a good life, you will definitely live a good life. In the future, for the sake of your brother and your second uncle's family, they will not treat you unfairly.
But if you really think that they are not worthy of you, that's fine.
I will no longer ask about your marriage, and I will not trouble your second and third aunts. You can find one for yourselves, and I will give you the dowry as usual.
You guys should think about it carefully. I'll give you three days." After saying that, Boss Song turned around and walked out, leaving the two sisters at home wiping their tears.
Mrs. Song had already listened to the conversation between the father and daughter. In her heart, she actually agreed with what her son said.
But she also hoped that her two eldest granddaughters would marry into a good family, wear gold and silver, and have maids to serve them, just as they said.
After thinking it over, she finally pretended that she heard nothing and went back to her room.
Song Laoer's family in the city didn't know about these things. Tian Mimi was busy developing the takeaway business recently. They found a group of errand boys in the city and advertised for recruitment everywhere like newspaper boys.
Song Sanniang planned to use the recruitment gimmick to attract attention first, and then start promoting the delivery business after recruiting enough people.
"Breaking news, Le'anfang Sweetie delivery business is hiring errand runners and deliverymen.
Men and women are welcome, aged 16 to 40, quick-witted, responsible,
The rewards are generous. If you meet the requirements, please go to Tian Mi Mi to sign up. "
These errand runners who shuttled through the streets and alleys to promote the business became a hot spot in the city. There were few ways to make money at that time, and those who had skills kept them hidden and would not easily reveal them.
It is difficult for common people to change their appearance in several lifetimes, so there are not many opportunities to find work. They have to rely on competition, connections and gifts, not to mention that nowadays, Tian Mi Mi still recruits female workers.
After listening to the shouts of the runners for a few days and seeing the flyers, some smart people had already gone to Tian Mi Mi to report.
There was also a long queue at the door of Tianmi Mi.
