My cousin Zhang Yan and I have only been able to see each other during the holidays when we visit relatives, and we have no contact with each other.

Maybe those remnants of love have been wiped out by this time.

But in contrast, only these relatives in this world can give each other some help in the future.

That's also, when I really can't hold on, my parents rely on me.

I rode out of the house, with Ning Meixuan sitting in the back.

The green fields on both sides, the endless neat trees on both sides, the blurred chimneys in the distance only emitted white smoke, the smoke lingered in the sky, and a ray of light rose from the sun, cutting through the early morning earth.

It had just rained two days ago, and the air after the rain was fresher and refreshing, and the flowers and plants on the roadside grew more gorgeous, and the irrigation of nature was their favorite. Only the sunshine after the rain is so gentle and auspicious, so exciting.

I turned my head to see that the sunlight was a little dazzling, but the beauty of this morning sun, accompanied by the morning glow, made me can't help but stare at the dazzling light, and I can't bear to look sideways.

The breeze was howling on both sides, but I still heard Ning Meixuan's hearty laughter.

I felt a pair of hands lying on my shoulders, I turned my head and saw Ning Meixuan standing on the car, grabbing my shoulders, her eyes closed, smiling, and enjoying her face.

Ning Meixuan was wearing red checkered clothes, she was so beautiful, I couldn't help but look at it twice.

I was dressed in blue checkered.

I turned my head and concentrated on my bike, thinking that perhaps only the closeness and refreshment of nature could achieve such peace of mind.

The feeling was short-lived, and soon I was at my aunt's house, and the morning sun would always rise and turn into a scorching sun.

From afar, I saw that my aunt's house was full of red balloons, red lanterns, and red double happiness.

Firecrackers hung outside the door, and the ground was covered with scraps of red paper, as well as fruit crumbs.

The birds by the trees are singing and singing merrily, and they are the only ones who are the most lively in this quiet village.

In front of my aunt's house was a small courtyard, and at the back of the courtyard was a small two-story building.

It's still early in the morning, and there is no one outside my aunt's house, only two tables, cigarettes, candy and something.

I parked the car outside, and I pulled Ning Meixuan towards the yard.

There weren't many people in the yard at this time, basically all of them were my dad's elders, my aunt, my aunt, my aunt, and I didn't know or see the others, and I saw my dad also standing aside.

I went to say hello to them one by one, and Ning Meixuan followed behind me and called with me.

When they saw Ning Meixuan, they forgave me aside, and greeted Ning Meixuan with concern for a while, asking long and short, asking where she worked, what kind of work, how old she was, her family situation, and whether she was going to marry Xiao Zhezi when she came back.

I saw that the more I asked, the more unreliable it became, so I hurriedly broke the siege, pulled Ning Meixuan aside, and went to find my aunt.

When I met my uncle, he was very bold, patted me on the shoulder, handed me a cigarette, and asked me how I was doing.

My uncle isn't very busy, but he's really not busy, it's just the man's side.

The guests on the woman's side will go to the man's, while the woman only needs to invite relatives and friends to congratulate, and then prepare the dowry and household appliances and furniture for distribution, and there is nothing else to be busy with.

And the countrymen are generally very poor, and there are no heirlooms or anything like that.

My mother's brocade was an accident. So every time I see those wives on TV, as well as family heirlooms, cars, and houses to give, I feel that it is more unreliable than a dream.

Although there are not many people in this courtyard now, it is also very noisy.

My uncle and I shuddered a few more words, and my uncle smiled and praised me, saying, "I haven't seen you for a few years, but you have learned to abduct your daughter-in-law?" ”

"Huh?" Ning Meixuan stood behind me, probably not understanding my uncle's words, and suddenly opened her mouth in surprise.

"My uncle is kidding? I smiled and explained to Ning Meixuan.

"Oh, uncle. Ning Meixuan then greeted her uncle.

"Okay, I'm not going to talk to you, I'm going to be busy. Yanzi and her mother are upstairs, you haven't seen each other for a long time, let's have a good chat. My uncle said, and turned away.

I pulled Ning Meixuan upstairs.

As I walked, I explained to Ning Meixuan that in our countryside, when we get married, the woman will ask the man for a bride price, which ranges from 60,000 to 100,000 in our place. And if the man can't come up with so much money, the woman's parents will definitely not agree to this family business, and those who can't afford to marry a daughter-in-law can only marry someone from another place.

"Do you still want money? Isn't this a matter of selling your daughter? Don't you need money to marry someone else?" Ning Meixuan said a little angrily.

This is our custom, one is to see the man's sincerity, and the other is to see whether the man has the ability to support the family, and if he has the strength, the woman's parents can rest assured that they will marry their baby daughter. The amount of this money depends on the woman's family situation. If the woman's family has money, then the man has no money, and the woman's parents will definitely not want to. And if you marry a foreign daughter-in-law, the woman's parents must be afraid that the man will bully the woman, so they dare not ask for money, and they will have to pay it back in the future, which is more troublesome. That's how we do it anyway. I said to Ning Meixuan.

"Then what if two people have to get married, but the man has no money?" Ning Meixuan asked.

"That can only depend on whether the man can convince the woman. "I spread my hands.

"What if you can't convince me?" Ning Meixuan asked, looking at me.

"If you can't convince it, then you can't do it, you can only listen to your parents, your parents are so big, and you can't let go of your feelings for so many years. I said.

"Then what if two people get married in private?" Ning Meixuan said.

"Once we had one, the man had no money, the woman had to marry, and the parents on both sides did not agree, so the two disappeared, so they went to get the certificate privately, and as a result, the certificate was brought back, and the man's parents were angry. I pouted.

"How can you be angry? Can you be angry? Then why are the man's parents angry? Isn't it good not to spend money to marry a daughter-in-law?" Ning Meixuan stared at me with wide eyes.

"Good is good, our countryside is more traditional, people in the countryside are more innocent, face is more important than life, others marry daughters-in-law are beautiful, not only do I not know that my son is married, but also by the people in the village ridicule, even more angry is that my son does not listen to his own words, and as a result, he can't think about it, he ......" I shook my head and said.

"Then these two people are happy in the end, isn't it?" Ning Meixuan pouted.

"What's the happiness, it's not the end of it. ”

"Why?"

"Because the man thinks that the death of his parents is caused by the woman, both of them have shadows. And not long after getting married, his parents died, how unlucky, the people in the village thought that this woman was a nemesis, gossip, and bad words, so the two of them were depressed and unhappy, often quarreled, and finally had to leave. Hey, how can you be happy without the blessing of your relatives and the curse of others?"

"It's a pity, it's miserable. Ning Meixuan sighed.

"No way, we can't change the customs. I said, "Don't sigh, I've been standing for a long time, let's go." ”

Yes, the customs of the countryside are like the trends of the big city, and we can't change them.

can't adapt and is destined to be eliminated.

Ning Meixuan and I were still standing at the top of the stairs, so I pulled Ning Meixuan upstairs.

Passing by the upstairs room against the top of the stairs, I saw my cousin sitting in a white wedding dress, and my aunt was alone in the room.

Ning Meixuan and I walked in, and my aunt and Zhang Yan saw me at a glance.

Ning Meixuan and I shouted to my aunt and said hello.

Before my aunt could reply, Zhang Yan hurriedly ran towards me, her face full of excitement, and she took my hand and walked inside.

"Yan'er, you get married today, pay attention to the influence!" my aunt said sternly.

I hurriedly let go of Zhang Yan's hand and stood to the side.

"What am I afraid of, brother?" Zhang Yan snorted and said.

"I'll go see what the guests are, and you can talk. My aunt stood up and said to me, and then looked at Zhang Yan again: "You are honest, you don't look like a bride!"

With that, my aunt went down.

Maybe it's because I'm more unkind, but I don't think my aunt is as unkind as my mother said.

I think people always change, some people get better and some people get bad.

Whether a person will become good or bad, he himself cannot decide.

My aunt may have forced Yanzi to marry Ryoko, but it was only out of love, and there are no parents who don't love their children.

As for whether my aunt is good or bad for this, it can only be seen whether Yanzi can be happy.
