Chapter 131: Stay for a few years
"Cui Goudan, Qi Zhiqing, are you going to get the certificate? It's fashionable to take wedding photos now, so you should take a good photo and show it to everyone. After all, one of you is a worker and the other is an educated youth, so you have to look cool!"
One has a bald head and the other has a mushroom head, it’s exciting just thinking about it!
"Yes, how many families in our village are better off than your Cui family? Are you going to hold a banquet at noon? My aunt will definitely bring two eggs to cheer up. There will be a bumper harvest next year, and every household in our village will be full of money!"
Having a banquet? The powerful Qian Yulan of the Cui family might not let her in, right?
"Haha, our family can make a lot of money, but the Cui family, tsk tsk, it's hard. Don't they have compensation from the factory? They must have spent a lot of money in daily life. I haven't seen their family for more than half a year since I started working. In our village Raising fish in rice fields, growing watermelons, and dividends from livestock farms have nothing to do with them.”
Raising fish in rice fields is a very profitable job. The Cui family just can't get along with the money. They have been hiding at home for half a year and can't work. Wow, does the Cui family still have any dignity? Maybe it won’t be long before the next meal is served?
When he said this, everyone was happy for a long time.
Cui Tianhao and Qi Yunlan had tense faces. They got in the car and left quickly without saying a word or even giving the An brothers and sisters a look.
The guys couldn't help but blow rainbow farts to An Zhixia. Hearing An Zhixia's eyes narrowed with a smile, he felt like he was back in the 21st century when he was being sought after by fans.
In a state of elation, she took out a handful of White Rabbit toffees from her bag and handed them out to everyone, "Auntie, aunt, you have to say good things for my brother later. My brother is a good person, but he is stupid and doesn't know how to please. Girl, I helped organize these things. Although our family is not very wealthy, we have to pay hard to buy malted milk and milk powder, but this is what we want, and we have to let Uncle Fang and Aunt Fang know about our family. Not an attitude?"
Everyone was stuffed with an armful of White Rabbit toffees. There were about ten of them, and everyone nodded with joy.
Before we arrived at the village chief’s house, someone shouted and a large group of people poured into the yard.
Aunt Fang was mentally prepared, but she was also frightened by the enthusiasm of the aunts and aunts who surrounded her and acted as matchmakers, "Hey, sisters and sisters, tell me one of you, who should I listen to?"
Aunt Hua smiled and said, "I am the serious matchmaker between the two brothers and sisters."
"Sister Hua, come and sit in the room, everyone," said Aunt Fang, then drove her daughter, who was drawing circles with her feet with her head down, into the room, and asked the two daughters-in-law to get some brown sugar water and drink a cup each. bowl, and put two poached eggs in the bowl for Sister Hua.
"Oh, look how satisfied our sister is with her future son-in-law. Before I even opened my mouth, she started to thank the matchmaker!" Aunt Hua quickly stopped Aunt Fang and said with a smile: "I know you are both very satisfied, but Hongye has been growing up since she was a child. I have been greatly wronged, so we have to step up and let those who are watching the joke know that Hongye is a lucky child. "
Aunt Fang slapped her forehead suddenly, "Sister Hua is right. I, am I too happy and confused?"
After saying that, she tried her best to put back the wrinkles on her face and greeted the An family brothers and sisters rather coldly: "Come on, come and sit in the house."
The brothers and sisters of the An family looked at each other, smiles only dared to cross their eyes, but they did not curl their lips to save face.
The group sat down and sipped the brown sugar water happily, pricking up their ears to listen to what was going on with the Fang family and the An family.
The village chief went out for a stroll early in the morning holding a tobacco pole, and his cheerful appearance made people confused. When they heard that the An family brought dozens of village speakers to Fang's house, everyone finally came to their senses and rushed to the house with envy and hatred. Say some mean things to him.
The village chief was not angry and hurried home slowly. He was a mediocre person if he didn't make others jealous.
When the village chief arrived, the group began to talk formally.
Aunt Hua followed the procedure and praised the juniors on both sides as flowers, then expressed the man's determination and desire to marry, and gave generous gifts to show her sincerity.
Aunt Fang only had a faint smile on her face. She sighed and shook her head and said, "We have raised our daughter for twenty years, and we are not doing this for you. Hongye is busy working all day now and cannot live at home for more than three to five years a month." God, her father and I don’t want her to get married early, and we want to stay for a few more years.”
As soon as these words came out, several aunts and aunts burst into laughter. Hongye was already twenty years old. Not to mention them, I am afraid that the Fang family would also like her to get married tomorrow, so as not to be gossiped about as an old girl at home. If you stay a few more years, how old will you be?
Rural people get engaged early, and girls start seeing each other when they are fifteen or sixteen years old. At that time, the woman's reserved words are a bit inconsistent now.
An Zhixia and An Zhiqiu were a little confused. Auntie was obviously happy, but why did her attitude change after her face changed? Doesn't this mean you don't agree with the poor etiquette? The Fang family is not like this.
An Zhixia pursed her lips tightly, and An Zhiqiu's face was red with hurt and embarrassment.
Just when An Zhixia was about to say a few nice words for her brother, she was stopped by Aunt Hua, "That's right, the girl is the little cotton-padded jacket of her parents. Who wouldn't feel sad if she has to go out unexpectedly? Otherwise, Li You should keep it for now and discuss it with your family later, and we will come back tomorrow."
With that said, she dragged the An family brothers and sisters out, while the group of women stayed at the village chief's house and kept saying good things to An Zhiqiu.
After leaving the door, Mrs. Hua smiled and said, "It's done!"
The An family brothers and sisters were even more confused. They all declined, so how did it happen?
Aunt Hua patiently explained to them: "I don't know how you city people look at each other. In our rural areas, the bride's family should be reserved, learn from the ancient times and visit the thatched cottage three times, embarrass the man, and let him know that the woman's family loves the bride very much. From now on, you must love and respect your newlywed bride.
As long as you accept the gift, I will take you two more times.
“But,” she hesitated.
The An family brothers and sisters let out a long sigh of relief, with smiles on their faces again. When they heard her words, they immediately became nervous. "Ma'am, please tell me."
"But you are too sincere. If you give such a heavy gift for the first time, why should you give it the next two times? According to the rules, the gift must be heavier each time to show your sincerity." Aunt Hua sighed and shook her head. , "You blame me too. I was just thinking about your happy event and I was happy for you, so I forgot about this. But don't worry, these three gifts are also counted as the betrothal gift to the woman. When the actual gifts are given, you Just go through the motions."
“Don’t worry, ma’am, I’ll go to the county supply and marketing cooperative with my brother later, and keep tomorrow’s gift bigger than today’s...”
“Five points,” Mrs. Hua added with a trembling heart.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Auntie Hua. When my brother's marriage is finalized, I will prepare a thick red envelope for you to thank the matchmaker." An Zhixia said goodbye to Auntie Hua with a smile.
The author was thinking casually, monthly tickets are monthly tickets, haha. . .
