Chapter 431: Chapter 431: The Matchmaker Comes to Propose Marriage for Big Brother

Skinny was shocked, truly his Sister Su, so straightforward.

If it were five hundred units, the price difference would be two thousand five hundred bucks. What a windfall.

Skinny suppressed his mouth from curling up crazily: "Alright, Sister Su, we’ll take all five hundred units."

"What five hundred units? I said five thousand units."

And that was her underestimating.

Skinny and Liu Dadan were both dumbfounded: "Five...five thousand units..."

Even if they were beaten to death, they couldn’t sell that many.

Although this stuff is popular, it’s expensive, not something ordinary folks can afford.

Su Xiaoxiao knew they didn’t have the capability: "With such a small order, it can’t be cheap. How many are you planning to buy?"

Originally thought five hundred units would be tops, didn’t expect Sister Su to have such high expectations.

The two conferred, Skinny braced himself and spoke: "Sister Su, how about giving us two hundred units first, then regarding the price..."

"With so few, still wanting a discount? Wishful thinking."

After Su Xiaoxiao said this, she spread her hands to them: "Clear accounts between brothers, down payment."

Skinny looked embarrassed: "Uh, Sister Su, we don’t have that much cash on hand, can we pay half first?"

"Alright, remember to bring enough money next time."

Su Xiaoxiao swiftly collected the money, arranged with them to pick up the goods at the usual place tomorrow, then bid farewell and left.

Su Wenbing watched the two rascals nod their heads respectfully to his younger sister, utterly amazed. His sister indeed, so capable.

They headed home together, discussing the big brother’s matchmaking matter tomorrow. As they approached the house, they saw from afar that her mother was standing with a dark face talking to a middle-aged woman.

"Young sister, where are you going to find such a good match? Your Wenbing is not getting any younger, if you delay any longer he’ll become an old bachelor!"

"Though the girl’s eyes are a little small, they’re sparkling! Look how energetic she is!"

As they walked closer, they heard these words.

Su Xiaoxiao peered over, recognizing an old acquaintance—it was none other than Matchmaker Chen, who came last time to find a match for her.

Matchmaker Chen was speaking passionately, turned her head to see the two and immediately greeted with enthusiasm: "Oh, Xiaoxiao and Wenbing are back? Come over quickly, Wenbing, Aunt has a good match for you from our village, the Wang Family. You know their conditions too, it’d be a match made in heaven."

Upon hearing it’s about matchmaking, Su Wenbing’s face became less cheerful.

Su Xiaoxiao, upon hearing Wang Guanghai’s family next door, immediately recalled that Wang Guanghai’s family had an eldest daughter three years older than her brother. That wasn’t the main issue, the main issue was her big face with two small green bean eyes, like they were grown for fun.

Looking at her brother again, tall with long legs, handsome and spirited, standing together shows an absolute mismatch.

Is this called a match? This Matchmaker Chen must be blind.

"Aunt Chen, my family doesn’t collect junk, stop bringing any oddballs and rejects here."

Su Wenbing was embarrassed to say anything, she wasn’t.

"How do you talk like that, girl? What’s wrong with the Wang Family girl?"

"Nothing wrong, her big face is bigger than her buttocks, and her eyes are like magic black beans. You need a magnifying glass to have a proper look."

Su Xiaoxiao spoke bluntly, not allowing her brother to be tricked.

"You talk so harshly, girl. In our rural marrying just needs someone good at household chores, and the Wang Family girl is proficient at that."

"If she’s so good, why don’t you match her with your son? Keep these good things within your family, don’t mess with mine."

Su Xiaoxiao said this, squeezing the woman aside, and took her mother inside: "Mom, come, let’s go inside, my brother has good news to announce."

Chen Aimei saw no one paying attention to her, stomped in anger: "Alright, fine, don’t come begging me for matchmaking when your son remains single, you’ll never find a bride for your family..."

Su Xiaoxiao stopped abruptly, sneered: "Auntie, you’re of an age, stop worrying so much, the more you worry, the quicker you depart this world. Besides, my brother’s sweetheart is coming to visit tomorrow, a city girl, educated and cultured. Most importantly, her eyes are big and bright..."

"You...you all..."

Chen Aimei trembled with rage. The Su Family was her nemesis; every visit resulted in nothing good.

Before she could finish her rant, the courtyard gate slammed shut right before her, nearly hitting her nose.

Fine, no need for her, huh? She would love to see which city girl without taste would fancy the impoverished Su Family.

Probably just pretending to be rich, because if Su Wenbing had a match, Liu Cuilan would have mentioned it early on. Fine, she’ll wait to see the joke tomorrow. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

Su Xiaoxiao took her mother inside. Liu Cuilan worriedly asked: "Old third, what nonsense are you saying? Don’t you know that Matchmaker Chen has a big mouth? If tomorrow your brother doesn’t have a bride visiting, she’ll definitely spread it everywhere..."

"Who says he doesn’t have one? Brother, quickly tell mom about it."

Su Xiaoxiao said, pulling her elder brother over.

Su Wenbing was a bit embarrassed: "Just got engaged..."

After briefly introducing the situation, Liu Cuilan looked incredulous: "Old third, pinch mom, mom suspects she’s dreaming. How could such a good girl fancy your brother with our conditions?"

"Mom, how can you say that? My brother’s not lacking, handsome and capable with his career..."

Su Wenbing was complimented by his sister, feeling somewhat embarrassed, while Liu Cuilan sighed: "Looks can’t be turned into food, with our family’s conditions, who would fancy us."

Marry a man for clothes and food, in this era, household conditions matter more than looks.

Otherwise, with her eldest’s looks, he’d have had a bride long ago.

"Mom, my brother’s not lacking. He’s now the workshop director at the steel factory, there are plenty of girls wanting to marry him..."

"What?"

Liu Cuilan was more shocked than hearing her son had a match.

"Old third, what did you say just now? Who’s the workshop director?"

Su Xiaoxiao nudged her brother with her elbow: "Brother, tell mom."

Her brother, really, if she had such good news, she’d have flaunted it ages ago. So composed.

Su Wenbing explained the election matter thoroughly, Liu Cuilan was silent for two seconds, then suddenly turned and rushed inside rummaging through boxes.

"Mom, what are you doing now?"

Su Xiaoxiao curiously peered to ask.

While Liu Cuilan was busy searching for something, she replied: "I have to quickly burn paper to tell your dad this good news, the Su Family’s ancestral grave is going to emit smoke."

Just saying this, a shocking voice came from outside: "Cuilan, not good, Old Su’s grave is on fire!"

Su Xiaoxiao was dumbstruck, you talk about emitting smoke, and it really did?!
