Chapter 67: Make an Appointment

There were no customers in the store in the afternoon.

Jiang Meihua was busy moving around the store, helping her sister-in-law Liu Xihua prepare ingredients for tomorrow's breakfast.

She skillfully soaked the beans in water so that they could be sent to the mill at three o'clock the next morning to be ground into fresh soy milk.

In addition, she also soaked various ingredients for cooking eight-treasure porridge, so that she could save a lot of time when cooking porridge tomorrow morning.

Just as Jiang Meihua was busy with her work, she suddenly heard a shout, "Hey, Meihua, are you busy? Is this your eldest brother and his wife's breakfast shop?"

Jiang Meihua suddenly raised her head, her eyes met the person who came, and her face instantly became gloomy.

Song Liangdong?!

Why is he here?

Jiang Meihua's heart tightened, and she turned around and walked quickly into the house.

"Meihua? Meihua, why did you leave?" Song Liangdong followed closely.

Jiang Xiaoxiao, who was sitting in the stroller, saw this scene, her face was full of anger, and she yelled at the top of her voice: "Mom——"

At this time, Liu Xihua was collecting the dried clothes upstairs. Hearing Jiang Xiaoxiao's exclamation, she hurriedly put down the work in her hands and went downstairs to check the situation.

When Liu Xihua reached the stairs, she bumped into Jiang Meihua who was walking towards her.

She couldn't help but feel puzzled, and just as she was about to ask, she saw a man walking in right behind her.

The man smiled, nodded at Liu Xihua, and introduced himself, "You are Meihua's sister-in-law, right? I am Song Liangdong."

When Liu Xihua heard that the person coming was Song Liangdong, her face instantly became gloomy, as if covered with a layer of frost.

She frowned tightly, and her eyes revealed obvious hostility and vigilance.

"How did you find this place?" Liu Xihua asked stiffly, while protecting Jiang Meihua behind her, as if she was afraid that Song Liangdong would do something bad to her.

Jiang Meihua's face was pale, and her eyes were filled with panic and anxiety.

Song Liangdong glanced at Jiang Meihua and couldn't help feeling a little unhappy.

But he quickly adjusted his mood, put a smile on his face, and said nonchalantly, "I just happened to pass by here, and saw Meihua here, so I guessed that this should be my brother and sister-in-law's breakfast shop. Haha, I guessed right!"

Liu Xihua was not moved by Song Liangdong's smile. She still responded indifferently, "Our breakfast shop opens after midnight every day, so we close early at night. If you don't have anything important to do, we will close now."

She unceremoniously ordered him to leave.

Song Liangdong naturally understood what Liu Xihua meant by this, and he knew that he was not welcome.

He secretly speculated that Jiang Meihua must have said something to Liu Xihua that caused her to be so disgusted with him.

Although he was simmering with anger, he still suppressed it and tried his best to remain polite and smile, "Okay, okay, I'll come back another day."

Song Liangdong looked at Jiang Meihua again, turned around and left.

Watching him walk away, Jiang Meihua stamped her feet angrily and complained, "Sister-in-law, why is he still here!"

Liu Xihua patted Jiang Meihua's shoulder comfortingly and said, "Don't worry, I'll chase him away if he comes again."

Song Liangdong left Jiang's breakfast shop and returned to his blacksmith shop with a cold face.

He saw that there was a middle-aged man waiting for him there.

When the young apprentice saw him coming, he shouted, "Master, someone is looking for you."

Jiang Daguo held his breath when he saw Song Liangdong approaching.

With Meihua's personality, she would definitely have a hard time marrying this man. Not only does he look shabby, he's also a drunkard.

Also.

"What's the matter?" Song Liangdong walked up to Jiang Daguo, nodded, put the wine bottle in his hand on the cabinet, and began to look for a wine glass.

"I'm Meihua's brother, I want to talk to you about something." Jiang Daguo said coldly.

Song Liangdong was stunned for a moment, then he smiled and stretched out his hand to Jiang Daguo, "It's you, big brother. Oh, big brother, why did you come here suddenly? You didn't even tell me in advance."

"I'm not your elder brother. Just call me by my name. My name is Jiang Daguo. Just call me Daguo." Jiang Daguo ignored the hand he extended.

Song Liangdong waved his hand, "How can that be? You are older than me, so I have to call you brother."

"Do you want to talk here or find another place?" Jiang Daguo looked around and asked in a cold voice.

Song Liangdong held up the wine bottle and said with a smile, "How can we talk here? Come on, brother, let's find a place to drink and talk while we drink."

Jiang Daguo waved his hand, "I don't drink. I came to you to talk about your marriage with Meihua."

Song Liangdong's expression changed slightly, but he still said straightforwardly, "You mean Meihua? Then...what about our side?"

He pointed to an old millstone under a big tree nearby.

Jiang Daguo nodded and walked over there.

Song Liangdong put down his wine and followed.

"Song Liangdong, my sister said that she doesn't want to marry you. You go to my parents to take back the betrothal money and the marriage will be cancelled." Jiang Daguo said straight to the point.

The smile on Song Liangdong's face gradually faded, "Brother Jiang, this is not good. Meihua's parents and her elder sister all agree."

"Marriage is about freedom. You can't threaten me or tempt me with benefits. As long as my sister disagrees, it won't work even if everyone else agrees." Jiang Daguo said coldly.

"Brother, is it Meihua who told you that just now? When I went to your house this morning, she clearly agreed to it. Now she suddenly changed her mind. Is it you who said that?" Song Liangdong's face also turned ugly.

"You have a lover, right? You have a lover but you still want to marry Meihua? Song Liangdong, you are not a kind person." Jiang Daguo said bluntly with his hands on his hips.

Song Liangdong's expression froze slightly, and he denied it flatly, saying, "Where did this fake news come from? It's not true."

Jiang Daguo also expected that he would not admit it.

How could you admit to having an affair?
"No matter what, this marriage must be cancelled." After saying this, Jiang Daguo glanced at Song Liangdong coldly and rode back on his bike.

Song Liangdong snorted coldly, "Break off the engagement? I wonder where you can find a rich man like me!"

He returned to the blacksmith shop cursing, and while drinking, he was thinking about how to make the Jiang family agree completely.

Let Jiang Meihua agree completely.

Just as he was scratching his head, trying to think of a solution, he saw a young couple walking side by side on the road in a very intimate manner.

Song Liangdong slapped his thigh and an idea came to his mind.

He asked Jiang Meihua out and told others that they were in love. Who would object?

After talking to him, can Jiang Meihua still marry into a good family?
No, maybe I won’t be able to get married.

He put down his wine glass and waved to his young apprentice, "Baosheng, come here and help the master."

"Oh, what's the matter?" The little apprentice patted his sleeves and ran over.

"What you do..." Song Liangdong said the idea he came up with.
