Zhang Man'er showed up helplessly: "this man is just like this. When a thief shouts to catch a thief and slanders others, there is no evidence. When it's my turn to be seen by so many eyes, how can I quibble? "
"Is, this Xue old two don't look at honesty, there is no sentence truth in this mouth."
Zhang Man'er said: "yes, I've been caught now, and I keep saying that I've been wronged, but I still don't admit it. How thick can I be? This kind of unconscionable words, thanks to him."
The villager said: "yes, I'm not good-natured, and I've wronged others. I should be down-to-earth. Don't be so naughty. It's harmful to others and myself. Old Xue's face is lost. I think your father-in-law is going to be very angry. He is diligent and honest all his life. He has such an evil son. His family is unfortunate. "
After twenty strokes, Xue Tian fell to the ground and couldn't get up. It was Xue Yang and Xue Xue who helped him in.
Xue's family is not in the main hall any more. The villagers are dispersing.
A good villager refused to leave. He stopped Zhang Man'er and asked, "Xue's daughter-in-law, I heard that the old Xue family gave widow Chen 30 liang of silver in order to make peace and save Xue Tian."
Zhang Man'er also told the truth: "you're well-informed. It's true. But widow Chen's thirty Liang speech surprised me."
The villager echoed: "it's not just you who are surprised. We are all surprised. It's thirty Liang. How many years can we eat it? The widow will open her mouth. Money is more important than reputation, which is not a good thing. Some people also say that they have seen Lao Lai come out of her house early in the morning. "
Zhang Man'er looked serious and said, "according to this, widow Chen is also restless. The men should stay away, and they won't be watched. "
"Who said no?" Then the villagers scattered.
One is willing to fight, the other is willing to suffer. The widow Chen and Xue Tian are not welcomed by the villagers.
"Third sister-in-law, why are you here?" Xue Yang, who just went to invite doctor Li back, saw Zhang Man'er go back and called her.
Zhang Man'er looked back and saw that he was sweating. He was busy these days.
It's time to clean up the mess and prepare for the wedding. It's time to get busy.
"Xue Tian has been beaten so hard that he can't get off the Kang these days. The good days on your side are coming. Do you need my help?" Zhang Man'er said, and pursed his lips again: "well, that's ready. When the dowry is ready, I'm waiting to get married."
Xue Yang is also looking forward to every day, finally looking forward to this day.
Speaking of Yang Kexin, the melancholy cloud on his face has dissipated a lot: "sister-in-law, I'm all ready. I don't have anything to help. I'm just waiting for the lucky day. I need my third sister-in-law to help me that day. "
"Certainly." Zhang Man'er looks at his expected Junrong and is happy for him.
Soon, many days passed.
On the day when Xue Yang got married, the Xue family got up very early and began to be busy.
Outside at dawn, Zhang Man'er was awakened by the knock at the door. She opened her confused eyes and looked up at the man beside her. Her voice was confused and said: "Xue Chuan, it's early in the morning. It's not dawn yet. Who's knocking at the door?"
Xue Chuan thought about it and said, "I almost forget that it's Xue Yang's wedding day. When it's lucky, I'll have to drive an ox cart to pick up the bride with Xue Yang?"
As soon as Zhang Man'er heard this, he ran away from his sleep. He patted his forehead and said, "yes, this is the day to go to the Yang family. Get up quickly. Don't miss the auspicious time."
Xue Chuan learned to get up and put on his clothes, which was already very fast. In a twinkling of an eye, he finished wearing them.
Zhang Man'er also quickly got up to make up. To meet the bride today, she couldn't wear too casual. She took a fancy purple Luo skirt from the wardrobe and put it on.
Out of the door, after going to the old Xue's house, I saw that the two cooking rooms were surrounded by people.
Tian, Li Chunxiang and Xue Yu were all here, and they specially asked two aunts in the village to help.
After she moved away, the old kitchen was also used by them. On this wedding day, one more kitchen is just a few more dishes.
The courtyard was covered with red cloth, with more than a dozen wedding tables, stretching from the door to the next door.
The door is decorated with red lanterns under the eaves. The windows and the door are all pasted with red happy words. It seems that the battle is not small. It seems that the stingy mother-in-law is rare to be generous.
Tian Shi was busy choosing and cutting vegetables. When he looked up and saw Zhang Man'er, he turned his eyes and yelled, "Oh, come here. It's rare to get up earlier today. I thought you were going to sleep till the end of the day? Other people's wives have come to help early, but they are not like my family. "
This big happy day, this Tian Shi still does not forget to take her to open brush, Zhang man son smoked to smoke corner of mouth.
If you pay attention to her, she will be energetic. In front of so many people, she is willing to lose face. Zhang Man'er doesn't want to pay attention to her.
Now Zhang Man'er has her own little life. It's a wedding banquet, so let Tian run on her. After she was cheated, she looks gloomy all the time. Everyone looks bitter and bitter.
Unable to stir up, Zhang Man'er turned and went to the yard. She saw many villagers saying hello to her: "Xue's daughter-in-law."
There are many faces that she is not familiar with. Some of them can't be named. Zhang Man'er nodded faintly and said with a smile, "Hello, everyone. It's so early."
"It's getting late. I don't want to find something to help you. It's a double happiness for the old Xue family this year. The third and fourth got married in the same year. It's good."
A villager said with a smile. If it hadn't happened a few days ago, the Xue family would have been complete.
It's beyond everyone's expectation that we can still have money to hold a wedding banquet after a big loss of vitality. Look at this wedding banquet, it's quite decent.
Originally, in this village, who didn't know that the old Xue family was poor, had many sons, and it was hard to marry a daughter-in-law.
Most of the young people in the village got married at the age of 15 or 16. Xue Chuan was only 18 years old. It was not because Xue's family was poor and could not afford the bride price for his daughter-in-law, and no daughter was willing to marry him. So he married Zhang Man'er, who lost his reputation in Datian village.
It's said that the dowry given to Zhang's family is only six liang of silver. Who's going to marry a daughter-in-law to give the dowry is not the beginning of 822?
This shows that the old Xue family doesn't pay attention to the third daughter-in-law. Now the daughter-in-law who doesn't pay attention to her is living a happy life. The old Xue family must be green with regret.
The fourth is not very successful in marrying his daughter-in-law. When the Wang family is involved, no one in the village is willing to marry his daughter to the Xue family, and the matchmaker is not willing to come to the Xue family.
