The sixth grandmother is really a diligent person, and she replied after a few days, she said: "The godsister went to the woman's house again, and the woman's family said that she would not dislike the conditions of the little four, and when the weather is warmer, take a time to look at each other." ”

Grandma was happy when she heard this, and said, "Okay, okay, that's good." While taking out the money and handing it to the sixth grandmother, she said that she would give her godsister the errand fee first, and then thank you two sisters when the matter is done. The sixth grandmother said "no, no", but took the money with her hand.

Since my mother told my grandmother what my uncle wanted to express that day, I began to pay attention to my uncle's writing, and after reading it many times, I didn't see what my uncle wrote, so I thought I was too careful.

It was another lively Spring Festival, and I was a year older than I knew it in the sound of firecrackers. Uncle's 'enemy' also came to pay New Year's greetings to his grandparents this year, and brought his beautiful girlfriend. ‘

Short black 'stayed in the uncle's room with his girlfriend for more than two hours, and told his story to his girlfriend in front of the uncle.

As soon as I took off the padded jacket, the uncle's family came, and there were seven or eight people. They first took a long bus ride to town, where their father picked them up in a borrowed tractor.

Grandma knew in advance that there would be a lot of people coming, and she and her mother were busy at home from the morning, and they didn't get out until they entered the house, leaving the mother to make the last bit of food herself.

The woman's parents and grandparents were in the east house, the six grandmothers and the uncle had a total of seven people eating and talking, and the rest of the woman's relatives were called by the father to their rooms to drink and chat, and I was like a little mouse scurrying around in the two rooms, and the adults were busy caring about me.

The first time I saw my uncle in detail was when my grandfather carried me to him and gave me food to eat, and I first saw my uncle sitting at the table, and the 'hamburger' that my grandmother had made for him was sitting there without moving. Uncle is still wearing the dark blue suit and trousers that his mother bought for him during the New Year, and he has been wearing it for a few days during the New Year, and it is still very new, without a tie, and wearing a black sweater inside.

Half of the woman's face was blocked by her long bangs, and she could vaguely see through the hair gap that the skin behind her was red or uneven, and she couldn't see her eyes. The half of the uncovered face here looks much smoother, the eyes are not big, the two braids are combed, the figure is well-proportioned, and the clothes on the body seem to be worn for the first time, clean and new.

The grandparents seemed to be very satisfied, and kept urging everyone to eat and drink, and the grandmother also personally sandwiched the dishes for the woman several times.

When he was full of wine and food, it was time to talk about business, and the uncle returned to his room, today was supposed to be his life's event, but he ran out like an outsider. Everyone didn't care, knowing that he couldn't make decisions about anything, and it was all up to his grandparents to speak. I ran to my uncle's room.

When the people in the father's house were gathered in the grandparents' house, the sixth grandmother stood in the center and spoke: "My godsister has not come to the past few days unwell, so I have full authority to represent the introducers of both sides, this person has seen each other, eaten food, and drank wine, we should talk about business, if you want to say anything, you can say it in front of the drum and the gong, and if you can't wipe your face, you can also tell me in private, and I will pass the word." ”

There was silence in the room, and no one spoke first.

After being silent for a while, several of the woman's relatives came out of the house to the uncle's room, and when they entered the door, they saw me playing on my stomach by the kang by the uncle, so they called me: "Child, when is your uncle writing?"

I glanced back at a few people and said, "I don't know, maybe I'll start painting sometime." ”

Someone immediately said, "Shall we wait here for a while?" and I nodded in agreement.

The sixth grandmother of the East House was afraid of the cold, and said: "What is there to be embarrassed about, the child's lifelong event, what do you want to say." ”

Grandma glanced at Grandpa, who nodded his head. Grandma said: "Then I'll say it for my four sons, and the daughters and we have also seen it, yes, our family has agreed to this family business." You've seen what we've seen, and I don't know what your opinion is. ”

When the woman's family heard this, they all looked at the woman's mother, and the woman's mother looked at her daughter, who lowered her head and did not speak, but only saw the hair hanging down in front of her forehead floating back and forth, which was considered to be a nod.

The woman's mother said: "The girl is also a junior in the middle, it seems that these two children are in love, and we have no opinion on being adults." ”

Grandma was overjoyed when she heard this, and the smile on her face was forcibly restrained by her, and her heart was really happy.

The sixth grandmother smiled and said: "Let's do this thing neatly, since the two children and adults have no opinions, today is the first time to meet, the two children can't be like other young people can spend the month and month to talk, and can't date or anything, let's just be a little bit, the next time will not talk about the conditions of both parties and the date of engagement, if you don't want to run back and forth, our sisters will continue to thread the needle and lead the matter of this matter, and then we will drink the engagement wine directly, will you not be hit?"

The words of the sixth grandmother are simple and clear, the two people really can't understand each other face-to-face, and the parents of both sides have no opinions, and the problem is much easier to say.

The rest of the time is to make a family routine and say some polite words to bring the relationship closer.

A few people who wanted to wait for the uncle to write, but when it was time to leave, they didn't see the uncle move the cane. Before leaving, the grandmother gave the woman's mother at least enough money for the two of them to go back and forth, as well as three boxes of canned food and a bag of red dates. Grandma watched them get on the tractor and smiled comfortably.

Grandma's face was happy, and she thought to herself: Si'er finally said that she is a daughter-in-law, which is more ideal than I expected!

The father was also happy for his younger brother and said to his grandfather: "Why don't we build a house this year, and the fourth son can live in a new house when he gets married." ”

When Grandpa heard this, he immediately said that he would prepare now, and he would do it when he said he would do it.

In fact, the matter of building a house has already been prepared in Grandpa's mind, and the required funds and materials Grandpa has also calculated how many times in his heart, and now that the conditions are ripe, it will be a matter of course.

Building a house is a big deal in the countryside, and the whole family has been mobilized, and even I am trying to find a way to help with the little things I can.

When the tractor pulled back the first car of red bricks, the sixth grandmother and her godsister came, and the sixth grandmother was excited as if she was going to marry her daughter-in-law, and said loudly: "Sister-in-law, this is starting to prepare for the new daughter-in-law to enter the door?"

Grandma hurriedly invited the two big matchmakers to the house to drink water. After drinking a few sips of water, my godsister spoke: "Old sister-in-law, I came this time to settle the marriage for the woman's family." ”

Grandma said, "Okay, okay, what conditions did her family say?"

The godsister said: "People said three conditions, if they all agreed, and there would be no engagement banquet, wouldn't this also be for your sake? ”

Grandma was even happier when she heard this, and thought: This family is still really reasonable. said: "What are the conditions, let's talk about it." ”

The godsister said: "The first one is that the bride price should be this amount, and there are three golds." As he spoke, he drew a number with his finger, and the three golds were: gold rings, gold earrings, and gold necklaces. Grandma felt a lot at first glance and looked at the grandfather next to her.

Grandpa said: "According to the current market of married daughters, this number is much higher, but we also know what the four sons are like, since the daughters of other people do not dislike the four sons, we didn't say it, let's just follow this number." ”

After listening to the younger sister, she continued: "The woman's family said that this bride price is not a big mouth, although she has a bad eye, but it is not too difficult to find a normal person, and it is not too difficult to find a normal person, and it is also a blessing for the little four, sister-in-law, do you say that you have to divide the family before marrying, the eldest child is not small, your family is still crowded together, the woman said that she married and lived alone with your old couple, mainly to serve you." ”

After hearing this, Grandpa thought about it and said: "This is no problem, the boss's house base was divided a few years ago, and it is not far away, and there is no hurry to build it, if this is the case, let the boss build it this time." Grandpa said this, thinking that the money was not enough, and the discussion with the boss was to build the old house first, and the budget would be increased again, and he would have to borrow some more money.

My godsister breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this: "The two major things have been negotiated, and the rest will be easy to handle." The third is that the woman wants a motorcycle, she said that it is inconvenient for Xiaosi to travel, and it is inconvenient for her to go back to her parents' house, and she can take Xiaosi back and forth with a motorcycle. ”

Grandma was shocked and hurriedly asked, "Can her eyes work on a motorcycle?" Besides, it's not safe to go so far." Isn't it also very convenient to take a long-distance bus. ”

The godsister said: "What's convenient for the long-distance bus? It's just two or three trips a day, and if you can't catch up, you'll have to wait for the next day, the woman said, mainly because she wants to take Si'er around, and she can also help others write a word or something." Oh, by the way, the woman also said that when building a house, one room will be vacated, and it will be used exclusively for Xiaosi to write in the future. ”

Grandma wondered, "Why do you have a special room to write? ”

The godsister smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, you don't understand, the woman said, her eyesight is not good and she can't go out to work, don't talk about it, what will you eat and drink in the future? ”

When the grandparents heard this, they were dumbfounded, and they didn't say a word for a long time.
