Chapter 97： shameful

Two days passed in the blink of an eye, Xuehan and Zhang Rongchuan got engaged, and word spread throughout the village.

In two days, Zhulan took Li to prepare the menu for the engagement. There were many people coming to the engagement, including Zhulan's family, in-laws in the Li family, as well as several seniors who visited the family. Count the number of people without children at least five tables.

The tables and chairs were all borrowed from the clan, and the benefits of being reintegrated into the clan came. The family had many things to help with. Before Zhu Lan could speak, the tables, chairs, dishes, and bowls were delivered.

There are three tables in the hall of Zhulan's house, one table in the bedroom where Zhulan lives for the other two, and one table in Li's house.

In order to appear serious and decent, Zhulan bought half a pig, five hens, five rabbits, prepared eight dishes, braised pork ribs, sauce pork, stewed bones with sauerkraut, stewed chicken with mushrooms, braised rabbit meat, fat sausages, sausages , the last dish of Zhulan cruelly cut a piece of ham to make soup, and the staple food was mixed noodles and steamed buns.

In the early morning, the Li family and the eldest daughter-in-law of the patriarch's family were busy cooking, and the second and third daughters-in-law of the patriarch's family helped them.

Zhulan wanted to entertain a female guest, and Zhao Shi was only a few days away from confinement, so she couldn't help.

The engagement has nothing to do with Xuehan. Because of his young age, Rong Chuan is equivalent to giving the Zhulan family no elders. After the patriarch's house came to the door early in the morning, Xuehan went to accompany the Zhao family.

Rong Chuan wanted to see a guest, so he put on new clothes and stayed by Zhou Shuren's side.

Zhulan chatted with the patriarch's wife in the bedroom, and Zhulan said enthusiastically, "I really want to thank my aunt today. Without my aunt's help, I'm not very busy!"

Zhao Shi is confinement, she and Li Shi are really busy.

Zhou Wang is quite content, she is able to have eight children to support, only six sons, daughter-in-law who works a lot, and she is quite filial, "You wait a few years for Chang Lian and Chang Zhi to get married. , the family is enough."

Zhulan thought in her heart that her two sons would get married and marry a daughter-in-law to help her. It is better to expect Zhou Shuren's wife to come quickly and buy cooking. She said on the face, "My aunt is one of the most fortunate people in the village."

Zhou Wangshi looked at the bedroom, no wonder Yang was jealous, seeing that the cabinets were covered with fabrics without patches, and there was fabric in the needle and thread basket. As expected of the one who loves his daughter-in-law, she is jealous, "You are the happiest person in the village, and my aunt envy you."

She has been angry with her mother-in-law for several years!

Bamboo Orchid, "..."

She shouldn't be lucky!

Fortunately, when the Yang family arrived, Zhulan hurriedly went out to greet her. Zhulan supported the Sun family, "Mother, why did you and father come in person?"

She thought that in the cold weather, only two older brothers came with their daughter-in-law and son.

Mrs Sun was unhappy, "My granddaughter's engagement is still not allowed me to see it in person?"

"Aren't I worried about your and dad's health?"

Sun didn't give face, she was really angry, she didn't know until her granddaughter wanted to get engaged, although Rong Chuan also liked Rong Chuan, she snorted, "My body is much better than yours, you still care about your own body. !"

Zhulan knew she was wrong, and when the second child came back from the New Year's gift, she said that the old lady and the old man were unhappy, and hurriedly smiled, "Yes, yes, mother is right."

Zhulan helped her mother into the house, and hurriedly squatted down to put her slippers on, "It's hot on the mother's kang, you warm up for a while, I'll go and pour the tea in again."

Sun shi gave her a kindness, but she didn't lose her anger anyway.

Zhulan quickly returned with tea, and her mother chatted with the patriarch's wife, and it was quite hot.

Zhulan and her sister-in-law were chatting and serving tea, but they felt guilty. She was not the original one. She and Zhou Shuren were both used to being independent and used to deal with it independently. I can only slowly make up for the deficiency. I originally thought that after the engagement, I would go back to my mother's house to make amends for my parents, but I didn't expect my mother and father to come here in person in cold weather.

Sun's being served is very comfortable, and she is no longer angry. I don't want to say how angry I am. I don't want to interfere in my granddaughter's marriage. Jin, in the end, I feel sorry for my daughter, so I can't be too tired to raise my body, "Okay, don't be too busy, just sit and rest."

Zhulan exhaled that the test was over, "My mother hurts me the most."

Mrs Sun's heart was warm, her daughter was the closest to her, but she said, "People who are grandmothers are still coquettish, so I'm not ashamed."

"I am a great grandmother, not my mother's daughter. I have been my mother's daughter all my life."

Sun Shi happily nodded her daughter's forehead, "It's a joke."

Zhou Wang was stunned. The rumors that Yang was favored in the Yang family were not true at all. If you can't read it, she will be jealous!

The Li family also came, and Mrs. Li came in person, and then came a few more. Zhulan's seniority went down all of a sudden and there was no place to sit.

The token exchanged between Xuehan and Rong Chuan was a jade pendant. Zhou Shuren personally went to the county and spent 10 taels of silver to buy it. The marriage certificate written by the patriarch Zhou The two children exchanged jade pendants in front of witnesses. The marriage certificate was handed over to Zhulan for safekeeping, and the engagement was over.

No way, no one let Rong Chuan have an elder.

Everyone in the Zhang clan knew about the engagement, but they also knew how Rong Chuan compensated the Zhulan family. It was guessed that the accident was a long-term worker. Later, the rumor of Tong Yangfu came true. Helping Rong Chuan, he felt that Tong Yangfu was not a decent thing, and Mrs. Zhang didn't have time to hide, let alone come to the door.

Zhulan heard from the Zhou Wang clan that Zhang Date and Zhu clan were warned about their coming, so they didn't come to make trouble.

Zhulan knew in her heart that Patriarch Zhang did not feel much distressed for Rong Chuan, and he did not stop Zhu Clan from secretly looking for trouble with Rong Chuan. In the end, it was Zhou Shuren who reintegrated into the clan. Zhang Datie and his wife.

Who let the child surnamed Zhang learn to read in the Zhou family!

These days are enough to let the whole village know how much Zhou Shuren is valued by the clan!

It was already afternoon. Zhulan was so busy that she didn't have time to talk to her eldest daughter Xuemei. Zhulan first sent away the Yang family who was on their way, and then sent off several elders in the clan, the Li family, and the patriarch. The family helped to clean up the dishes before leaving.

Zhulan was really embarrassed. She had planned to bring her two daughters and the Li family to clean up. The patriarch's family helped a lot. Zhulan was not stingy, because there were many dishes left in the pot. Two big bowls of dishes and a tea or two were given to the patriarch's house.

After seeing them off, Zhulan called for the third son who didn't drink and the old son to return the table and chairs. Rong Chuan also went with him. This time, he was betrothed to his half son, Zhulan. Straightening up, I can finally rest.

Xuemei hurriedly stepped forward to support her, "Mother, I'll help you go back to rest, you're exhausted today."
