The two carriages drove out from the small dirt road until they were seen out of the village by the villagers. The Xue family woke up and looked at each other.
Old man Xue was confused from beginning to end.
How can the girl marry? The man's mother came to the door, but she didn't see him?
It wasn't until Tian pushed his elbow that he came back to his senses: "what are you doing? Our daughter just said that and married?" Tone is full of not give up with doubt, even nose is a little sour.
When the children grow up, they all have their own families. Even the only little girl is going to get married. Xue Xue is absent from the family, and it's more lonely.
I still remember when Xue Xue was born, she was pink and soft, then she was very cute with two bun, and now she is a graceful girl.
All these thoughts are like yesterday. Today, when he learned that Xue Xue was going to marry to the yamen, he was not prepared at all, which made him feel bad.
"Come on, don't worry, old man. Xue Xue has a good home. It's a great joy. Come on, you carry these boxes into the house. Be careful. Don't knock them
Tian busily instructs Xue Tian and old man Xue to carry the boxes of betrothal gifts into the house. As soon as the boxes fall to the ground, Li Chunxiang jumps in excitedly and opens the box with jewels.
In front of a burst of pearly, several large vases occupied half of the country, the rest are some jade bracelets, pearl necklaces, agate jade, as well as gold and silver hairpins.
These gold and silver jewelry, no matter what a village woman, will be excited to see, not to mention Li Chunxiang, who wants to have a good life.
She was so elated that she picked out a plum blossom gold hairpin from the jewelry pile and ran to Tian's to ask for it. She said, "Granny, you can see that I have made such a great contribution. You can give me this gold hairpin."
If she hadn't made a quick decision and proposed to go to the Yamen to reason.
If she didn't take the lead, Xue Xue would not be able to enter the Yamen so easily?
It's not too much to take a gold hairpin, is it? She's been thinking about the gold hairpin for a long time. Zhang Man'er's hairpin made her greedy, so she made a big fight with Xue Tian and went back to her mother's house.
Tian Shi is a shrewd old woman. Seeing Li Chunxiang say so, she picked up the box first.
There was only one gold hairpin in all. He could not help feeling disappointed and said, "it's only one gold hairpin. Of course, it's for Xue Xue."
With that, he snatched it from Li Chunxiang's hand and gave her a string of Pearl Necklace: "here, this necklace is for you."
Li Chunxiang curled her lips unhappily. Her mother-in-law was too stingy to waste her efforts.
Sure enough, the treatment of daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law is very different. When you think about it carefully, some of them don't get well, so she reluctantly takes them over, but she doesn't have a smile on her face.
If you look at the box carefully, there are not many jewels except a few ceramic vases. Isn't this yamen a big door? This is too perfunctory.
I don't know. It's very polite for the Yamen.
Tian Shi is also an old woman with shallow eyelids. Just looking at the one hundred Liang silver is enough to buy her heart, and she doesn't care what these betrothal gifts do.
How can these silks and satins and these jewels be worth a hundred liang?
Now that she has the money, she wants to buy all the good fields in the village and become the biggest landowner in the village.
I can't imagine that the poor people who used to be among the best in the village can now become the rich people in the village. This is something Tian didn't dare to think about before, and now it is so real.
Tian grinned, with light on his face, which made the villagers feel envious.
Happy, she gave the wedding cake that the third aunt had sent to the villagers, and yelled to everyone that she would come to have a wedding wine tomorrow.
Xue Xue gets married, Xue Chuan gets married, and the two brothers and sisters get married together, which saves money, effort and worry, and brings double happiness.
The villagers are soft handed and short mouthed, offering their blessings one after another.
After putting on enough airs, Tian scattered the villagers and went back to discuss with his family.
Seeing that she was busy going in and out, old man Xue finally had time and pointed to the bench to let her sit down.
A large family sat on the bench and formed a circle.
Old man Xue took a few puffs of dry tobacco and glanced at some children. Finally, he fixed his eyes on Tian's body. His tone seemed unreal and said, "look, you are so happy. Your tail is almost up in the sky. How can I feel like a dream? I'm not sure."
Tian Shi glared at him and said, "what nonsense, old man? It's very unlucky. Ouch, we Xue's family will be very busy tomorrow, but we haven't prepared for anything? "
She has to ask the old man and Xue Tian to go to town to buy food materials. Is there a wedding banquet tomorrow?
I have to go to the next village to invite a good Xipo and some aunts to help me cook.
The last time Xue Yang got married that day, the aunts he invited all worked well, so it was them.
This is too much time. It's too late. Tian's assignment is urgent, and he doesn't have the heart to tell these people about his fate with the Yamen.
"Well, you're in such a hurry. We haven't done any dowry for our daughter?" Old man Xue frowned and sighed.
Looking at Xue Xue, who was silent from the beginning to the end, he was as cool as an outsider, which made him feel that Ming was not her wedding.
"Father, mother, please." Xue Xue was this if there is no eyes, look at the whole body uncomfortable, pursed lips spit out this sentence.
For wedding banquet, dowry and so on, she has no opinion, let the family busy.
After two days of careful consideration, her heart is not as swaying as before. A series of benefits brought by yamen make her eyes full of ambition.
Even if the concubine again how, first door say again, wait for Ning Sheng to clean up the clothes, after giving birth to a child, asked to be promoted to the main room.
Xue Xue wants to marry the best family in the town. After she has these rights, she makes sun Junhao kowtow.
These bullies, such as Zhang Man'er and sun Junhao, she will remember them one by one.
"It's a bit of a rush. Fortunately, we have a lot of people. It is estimated that tomorrow will be a rare golden day. Otherwise, Shifu and yamen will choose the same day? OK, don't talk about it, old man. Go to the town with Xue Tian to buy food. I'll arrange it at home. "
Tian's urgent roar finish saying, pull old man Xue to get up, push these two father and son to go out.
Without these two men, the house seems much more clean.
