Chapter 75: Lin Xiaoyan is engaged
Even if I told her the truth, I guess she wouldn't understand, after all, the reputation of the women in the village is the most important.
If you tell everyone that it's fake, no one will believe it, and you will definitely be scolded.
Lin Xiaoyan looked at me and suddenly smiled bitterly, "Are you back?" ”
I said, "Ah, yes. Actually, I have something to tell you......"
"I have something to say, so I'll talk about it first. Lin Xiaoyan hurriedly said, "Actually, I'm getting engaged." ”
I looked at her in surprise, "What did you say?"
"It's nothing, I just mean, I'm engaged. She bit her lip.
"Engaged? Is it the villain introduced to Li Jinfeng......
"Of course not, I know you're doing it for my own good, I can't be with him. She hurriedly waved her hand, "I am the boy of the Li family in the next village, and I am the one who herds sheep." The people are not bad, their family is just a kid, and there is no burden. ”
Is the Li family's sheep herding boy called Li Dong? I immediately breathed a sigh of relief, I know this person, when I got married in my previous life, that person seemed to have come to drink happy wine.
Others introduced that he was herding sheep, and he always had a smell of sheep on his body. But that person seemed to be pretty good, he was smiling honestly at the time, and he was just an ordinary villager. He had a good life in his previous life, the kind that he couldn't see when he threw it into the pile. I don't even remember what he looked like, and I don't remember who he married in his last life, but he shouldn't be a bad person.
But in fact, I still can't accept it, after all, she has just fallen out of love! Fang Ming, who likes it, doesn't like him, so he broke the jar?
She bit her lip and said: "My father and mother also said, the burden in the family is too heavy now, plus the spring to plant their own land, there are many, many places that need money and there are many places that have not been found, and now I still owe money to the production team, last year my father also gambled with others, so I owe a lot of money, and the day of repayment is coming, I can only do this." ”
It turned out to be forced, and I was immediately distressed, so I took her hand: "Don't be like this, don't pay the price of a lifetime for money, in fact, I can lend you money." "I really want to tell her that my family is really rich. I didn't even touch a cent of the money from selling the silver dollar before, but I also knew that the matter was serious, and I really didn't dare to say it.
But she waved her hand: "It's okay, I actually know what I'm like, I just wait a few years to get married, and the person who marries is like that, and the conditions won't be better." And although Li Jinfeng doesn't speak well, there is a saying that I think makes sense, the older a woman is, the more she can't find a suitable partner, and now that I marry Li Dong, I can ask for three turns and one ring, and ask for a bride price, but when I am in my twenties, I am looking for it, and it is estimated that I will not even be able to find a good dress. Anyway, sooner or later, I have to get married, it's better to settle down early, and I can also make my parents feel at ease, otherwise I can't stand muttering to me every day. ”
I really want to tell her that life shouldn't be like this, can't be so pessimistic, but I can't say it, the situation in the village is actually the same, girls who don't study, living in one acre and three points of land, facing that is, getting married, having children, farming, serving in-laws, marrying daughters-in-law for children, and the cycle repeats, and a lifetime has passed.
I can't just say to her, "You're going to meet true love." "Because I also know it's unlikely.
She may have had the love she was looking forward to, but in the end she was rejected by Fang Ming.
And her family's conditions in the village are really at the bottom, there are too many children, her parents don't do their jobs, they are in debt every year, and men from good families will not marry her.
I didn't mention marriage before because of my own bad temper, but she was dragged down by her family, which was too unfortunate. Now that she's completely decided, I can only support it.
She continued to say to me, "It's rare that Li Dong doesn't dislike my family's conditions, and is willing to give a bride price of 100 yuan, buy a bicycle, a watch, and a sewing machine, and I'm very satisfied now." We've decided to get married on May Day, and you're going to come then. ”
Her matter was set within three days, but after meeting with the matchmaker's introduction, it was basically decided. Lin Xiaoyan is going to live with that man who has barely spoken for the rest of her life, and it is very sad to think about it.
I agreed: "I will definitely go, you will definitely look good." ”
"Well, actually... I want to borrow your clothes to wear, I remember you have a red dress? I didn't have clothes when I got engaged, and my mother also said that there was no money to pull the fabric for the time being, and I could only do it for me when the other party officially gave the ceremony, so I can only beg you. She was embarrassed to hear her.
I simply agreed, dragged her into the house, and found her out: "I don't wear it anymore." It's just given to you, festive clothes that can always bring you good luck. "I changed this dress from a big coat before, it's a little fat, I don't like to wear it very much, but luckily she has a slightly plump figure than me, and she really fits it when she wears it.
She tugged at the corner of her clothes and said, "Thank you, Xiu'er, it's a pity that I don't have anything to repay you, and when the autumn comes, my jujube tree bears dates, I'll send it to you, right?" ”
"Okay, I'll just wait, you're dressed in good spirits. I said with a smile.
Lin Xiaoyan took off the red clothes, and then sat on the edge of the kang in a daze, I didn't know what to think, I also felt a little stunned, and I didn't speak, I said that marriage is a woman's second reincarnation, I hope she can be happy. Originally, the life of a rural woman was very hard, and if there was no one who knew the cold and the heat, it was estimated that she would really not be able to survive.
She suddenly spoke: "Xiu'er, you said I would be happy, right?"
Seeing her looking at me with an earnest face, I quickly smiled and said, "Of course, you will definitely have a good life! Li Dong is also said to be a good person." People are very kind, and my parents are honest people and are very easy to get along with. ”
"Well, I agreed to marry him because his parents are good. The burden is small, the health is healthy, and there are sheep in addition to the land at home, so it shouldn't be very bad. She rubbed her sleeve vigorously.
"Now that you've figured it out. I won't say anything more. When you get married, I will definitely send you a big red envelope. ”
She nodded vigorously, and then said, "I'm actually quite unhappy in my heart, but I can't help it, people always have to face reality, I'm leaving." ”
"Aren't you going to stay for a while?"
"No, I'm going to cook, oh, it's poisonous, I'm here to get you to do me a favor. As she spoke, she took out a black flannel bag and handed it to me, asking me to hand it to Fang Ming.
"Well, are you going to give him a gift?"
"Yes, it's actually a wish of mine, so you can give it to him. Other... Don't say I gave it. Otherwise, I'm afraid he won't. She waved at me and left.
I touched the bag, it should be a scarf, soft, her family is so poor, she can buy wool to weave a scarf, it is estimated that she has to pay a lot of hard work to save money.
A girl's initial dream and crush, but in the end, it can only end up lonely like this. I couldn't help but feel a sour heart, and tears fell.
"What are you doing, Xiu'er?" someone around me spoke, and I came back to my senses, it was my grandfather.
I quickly turned around and said, "Nothing, my eyes narrowed." I rubbed my eyes.
Grandpa hurriedly came over to see: "What, did you go into the sand? This is not good, hurry up and send it to the hospital to see?"
"It's okay, let's go back. I said with a smile.
"Oh, they're still eating there this afternoon. What are you buying? You can't eat the same thing today as yesterday, right?"
I said, "Let's make a big stew today." Save trouble. "It doesn't matter what pumpkin, dried eggplant, potatoes, sliced meat, sauerkraut, corn, vermicelli, anything can be put in it and stewed into a big pot. A few tortillas on the edge are a meal. Even if it's a very hearty dish, we can save a little trouble.
When the time comes, scrambled eggs, put more batter in them, and add a fried peanut rice, which will count as a few dishes.
"That's fine, let's cook. My grandfather said.
