Chapter 243: Poor couples face endless sorrow

Lan Yue Niang was thinking about what to say.

Qiao Hushui spoke before her: "Moon Mother, first ask Lihua, see what she says."

"Alright."

Lan Yue Niang agreed.

Qiao Hushui didn't want to stay alone with the matchmaker, so he went to ask Qiao Lihua.

Qiao Lihua hadn't spoken yet.

Qiao Xuehua exclaimed: "What, a Young Master wants to propose to the second sister? Dad, is this reliable? No, second sister, don't misunderstand, I'm just worried…"

These days quite a few people have come to their house to propose, but they're all ordinary families; even if they have a business, they're not that good.

Qiao Lihua showed a faint smile and said: "You don't need to explain, I understand."

"Dad isn't clear either, why not take a look?"

Qiao Hushui suggested.

He undoubtedly wanted Qiao Lihua to marry into a good family.

These days Qiao Lihua has thought a lot; she doesn't intend to marry such a family.

She said to Qiao Hushui: "Dad, let's refuse it; I've thought it through, I want to find an ordinary family."

"Are you sure?"

Seeing Qiao Lihua had made up her mind, Qiao Hushui couldn't help saying: "Lihua, poor couples face endless troubles; finding such a family isn't necessarily good either. Why don't you reconsider?"

Upon hearing that.

Qiao Lihua met Qiao Hushui's gaze and said: "Dad, whether poor or rich, there are good families and bad ones, right? If I haven't found one, I can only say my fate is bad; I won't blame anyone."

Her words left Qiao Hushui speechless.

"Forget it."

Qiao Hushui then said nothing more, directly went and refused the matchmaker.

The matchmaker really didn't expect Qiao Lihua to refuse so thoroughly, refusing without even saying to meet first.

Although Lan Yue Niang and Qiao Hushui went along with Qiao Lihua, they were still somewhat worried, after all she's not young anymore; if she doesn't marry soon, how will they have children later?

Hearing their conversation, Qiao Lihua felt uneasy; does she absolutely have to marry?

She wanted to talk with Qiao Sheng.

Afternoon.

Qiao Lihua made up an excuse and went out alone.

Walking down a street with few people.

Seeing someone staring at her, Qiao Lihua involuntarily tightened, her steps became much larger than before.

However.

Not long after, she was still stopped by someone.

Those who stopped her were two young men.

At a glance they were that kind of hooligans.

They wore somewhat new coarse cloth clothes, appearing rakish as they walked toward her.

"What, what do you want?"

Qiao Lihua was so frightened she stammered.

One of the hooligans chuckled: "Beauty, you're so pretty, what could we possibly want? Of course we just want to play with you."

"Exactly."

The other hooligan came up and touched Qiao Lihua's face.

Qiao Lihua pushed his hand away and shouted in panic: "Help, help……"

"Slap…"

The hooligan who just touched her face slapped her: "You shameless wretch, try shouting again, believe it or not I'll finish you off right here…"

"No, don't…"

Qiao Lihua's face turned completely white.

As they dragged her toward a side alley, a clear male voice came: "In broad daylight, you're too bold; let her go now, or else I'll call for help!"

The two hooligans ignored him.

Seeing them ignore him, Ji Fan looked around and shouted; after a while no one came, and some people even hurriedly left.

He clenched his fists.

Ji Fan grabbed a bamboo pole stacked in the side alley and gave chase.
