"Red thread, red thread, go back quickly and have a look, your mother has been angered to the point of vomiting!"

By the river, where the water was crystal clear, a young girl who looked to be fifteen or sixteen years old and dressed in a simple cotton robe was struggling to wash her clothes.

Upon hearing this, he calmly lifted his head and smiled at the person who came. "What? Mrs. Lin, are you joking with me?" How could that old woman's three-inch board be blown away by someone's anger?

Moreover, who is mother?

The most renowned matchmaker in Qinghe Village, she was the best at getting people angry. While others might get enraged and furious, they could even be driven to vomit by her!

Aunt Lin, who had hurried over to deliver the message, looked anxious. Seeing that he didn't believe her, she patted his arm and said, “This is a matter of life and death, I wouldn't dare make light of it. The doctor has already arrived at your doorstep, you should go back and have a look!”

"Are you serious?"

Qian Hongxian's heart skipped a beat. Seeing the other person's anxious expression, she realized things were serious. She immediately stood up, waved her hand, picked up the garment she was washing halfway through, and hurried into the house.

Qian was a widow. Her husband died less than a year after they were married. She supported herself and her only son, Qian Hongqian, by fortune-telling.

But, nobody knows that this red money line wasn't the original one a month ago!

It is said that Qian Shibao, in the vicinity of Qinghe Village, is quite well-known. He is very reliable when it comes to handling marriage arrangements on behalf of others.

The other day, he was still showing off to everyone, saying that he had just taken on a good marriage proposal, which was to help the daughter of Zhang Yuanwai, the richest man in town, get married.

You know, if this marriage could really be made happen, not only would we get a large sum of money as a gift, but the Qian family's name would also become known throughout the surrounding villages.

In the future, there will inevitably be more and more people coming to your door for protection.

For this, these days I've felt like I'm stuck in a jar. I haven't been out and about lately, running around early or late because of this marriage thing.

This is it! I just heard of a suitable match for Miss Zhang. I immediately rushed to town to tell Mr. Zhang the good news. Strangely enough, I met Old Lady Li from the back village at Mr. Zhang's house.

I don't know what the other party told Zhang Yuanwai. This Zhang Yuanwai suddenly decided to have Li Po handle my marriage arrangements.

If it were someone else, it might be fine. But this Li Po and Qian Shi, they just can't stand each other.

Everyone says that rivals in the same line of work are like enemies. These two people have been competing with each other for over ten years, always trying to outdo one another, and whenever they met, they couldn't help but make sarcastic remarks at each other. Qian Shi never expected that her almost finalized engagement would be suddenly snatched away by the other party without any reason. She was so angry and shocked that she fainted on the spot.

"Doctor, is my mother alright?"

qian Hongxian hurried home, just in time to see the doctor finish feeling Qian's pulse and come out of the house, followed by a large group of curious neighbors.

The doctor handed the prepared prescription to Qianhong, saying, "Don't worry too much, Hongxian. Your mother just had a sudden surge of anger and got blocked in her heart. It's not a serious problem. Just drink two doses of this calming tea, and you'll be fine! However, curing a physical illness is easier than curing a heartache. If you really want your mother to recover completely, you need to persuade her to relax, let go of her worries, and take good care of herself!"

"I understand, thank you doctor!"

Qian Hongxian, while thanking him, took out a small silver ingot from her waist and handed it to the other person. After personally seeing him off to the door, she also dismissed the onlookers before heading towards her mother's room.

Before she even reached the room's doorway, a series of coughs came from within. Qian Hongxian couldn't help but shake her head, her expression one of utter helplessness.
