Chapter 35: Love and Marriage
Without saying anything all the way, Zhao Hong returned to T City with few things, sat down in a fashionable yellow-faced place, and returned home.
There are three days left for the New Year, and the family has begun to prepare for the New Year's food, mainly big fish and meat, croquettes, fried tofu, fried potatoes, but this year's green vegetables have increased, and the greenhouse has a scale, and relatives in the suburbs of the city have begun to join it. This is also the beginning of the life of farmers in the suburbs.
I heard my sister say that my brother's girlfriend has also come, but it is not good-looking, and my parents are a little reluctant. It's just that my brother is very insistent, saying that they don't understand his girlfriend's smart and virtuous, and they don't understand the benefits of being smart.
Zhao Hong understands that it is true that beauty is the face on the surface, and intelligence is the inside of life. The face is shown to others, and the inside is the personal self-knowledge.
And this sister-in-law, who is also Zhao Hong's original sister-in-law, does have great wisdom, even smarter than Zhao Hong's brother, especially with extremely high emotional intelligence. I get along well with my family. It's also very good to my parents, and my parents are also very satisfied, but I just met, I don't really understand, I can't see it, and my parents are ordinary people, and I guess I didn't observe it carefully.
In the evening, my brother was still not very happy when he came back, and he didn't say a word during dinner, and returned to the room of the two brothers, and his parents were a little angry and a little helpless.
Zhao Hong said while eating, "Mom, Dad, my brother's girlfriend is really not good-looking?"
Zhao's father pouted and didn't say anything, so his mother said anxiously, "It's not good-looking, it's too dark." And it's more than a year older than your brother, it's not ugly, he's quite tall, and he's still a college student. ”
Dad Zhao also nodded, Zhao Hong waited for a while, pondering.
"The most important thing in a family is that the family is beautiful? it should be smarter, she is a college student, at least qualified, can make my brother agree and tolerate ignoring not beautiful, then it is smarter. Smart people are easier to communicate, you look at those beautiful guys, brainless family conflicts will be happy? If you see too much beauty, you won't feel it, but you are smart all the time. What's more, she is tall, but she is black, and she is not ugly. What are you worried about? ”
Seeing that his parents stopped talking and thought silently, Zhao Hong couldn't help but show himself, "My brother is nothing but a college student and smart." You see that my girlfriend is both beautiful and intelligent, of course, the premise is that I have the ability to earn more money and dare to spend money. And you have to be handsome, like me. ”
The parents and sister listened to it with amusement, and the sister laughed and despised it.
My mother smiled and said, "You are stinky and beautiful, this is not good-looking, that is not appropriate, the clothes are just clean and neat." ”
My sister then mended the knife and said, "You also take advantage of the light that the boys of the division university are generally not good at, and the dwarf pulls out the general and shows you." It's hard to say in the future, only to see the mud on the legs when you get out of the water. And her family background is not good, so you take advantage of it. ”
"You are all naked jealousy and envy!" Zhao Hong smiled smugly.
Then Zhao Hong told him about going to Li Xiaofang's house, although Li's father was poor, he was very wise, especially when he heard the hundreds of years of family history and family motto of the poetry and book heirloom, and his younger brother's hard work and progress, the family was very good.
The parents kept nodding their heads, smiling and saying, "Cherish Xiaofang." That's a good girl. You can fall in love, just don't delay your studies. It's the same with doing business. ”
Time soon in the busy Chinese New Year's Eve, as soon as the sky crackled in the dark, began to be endless, this is the first wave of cannons, after which they will start to eat Chinese New Year's Eve dinner to watch the Spring Festival Gala, some people pay attention to the old rules of vigil or welcome the new year, will grab the first cannon at twelve o'clock, at that time nothing can be heard except the sound of cannons.
In the kitchen, the parents and sister are already busy, the sister is mainly studying, has already joined the work to start the problem of marriage, Chinese New Year's Eve is very important, everyone will do their best to clean up such a decent meal.
It's a bit of a saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new, the level of the food on this table represents whether last year was rich or not, and I also pray that next year will be better than last year.
In the kitchen, popular dishes such as radish, cabbage, and vermicelli will always be the protagonists, and "out-of-season vegetables" such as tomatoes and cucumbers have also begun to appear, but they are just expensive and scary.
The table has been set, braised large carp, cucumber shreds mixed with cold skin, boiled peanuts, oily pork, braised pork, and finally a large stew.
Zhao Hong couldn't get his hands on it, so he went to watch TV. Watching TV, Zhao Hong began to be a little slowly in a daze, thinking back to his previous life, his fear and avoidance of reality. Trying to get into the unrealistic world to comfort and revel in yourself, and get by and live a mixed life.
After a few days of thinking, the parents slowly figured out a lot of problems, and their children have their own blessings. In fact, Zhao Hong's brother's choice is also suitable for himself. It's just that I'm a little greedy.
told his brother to let him bring his girlfriend to celebrate the New Year, and the family also prepared a gift to visit his brother's girlfriend's house. I hope to get married as soon as possible, they are all waiting to hold their eldest grandson!
The eldest grandson is the first child of the grandchildren, representing the bloodline of another generation, and the average old man attaches great importance to the matter of bloodline, so of course he attaches great importance to the eldest grandson.
My brother can finally let go of his mind this year and have a happy New Year.
Zhao Hong's old age is happy and lazy ↗, and he doesn't get up until nine o'clock every day. The relaxed mood makes Zhao Hong happy every day.
The future sister-in-law came at noon on the third year of junior high school, her brother and she have always been together, and the parents are not dissatisfied with the last time, after all, adults are also for children, everyone chats casually, and the atmosphere is slowly harmonious.
The parents also asked about their plans, after all, it was time to get married. As for the house, the original bungalow is quite large, more than 30 square meters, enough for two people.
It's just that the sister-in-law has some expectations Ai Ai said their family's thoughts, hoping to live in the building, after all, the environment here in the building is good. It's a lot closer to her work.
Zhao Hong looked at his sister-in-law with some amusement, when he was young, he was so cautious, didn't he just want a building?
"My parents want you to live in the old house for a while, and they also want you to live a life of two people. As for having children, of course, I have to come back and live in a building together. On vacation, I went to live in the old house and came over for dinner. ”
Zhao Hong hurriedly interjected. My sister-in-law is a little greedy. Why is this so? My sister-in-law still has a habit of being careful. I don't know the character and qualities of my family.
My sister was also a little unhappy when she heard this, so she endured it and didn't say anything. But there was an unhappy look on his face. In fact, the relationship between my aunt and sister-in-law was still very good. After the happy end, my brother and sister-in-law went out to play, and the season of love was a scenery everywhere.
Zhao Hong's parents and sister complained that Zhao Hong promised too much.
"Actually, it is normal for my sister-in-law to have some requirements, after all, I am still studying and have some big expenses, and the house also gives me opportunities. It's just that she doesn't understand, why should she explain so much to her about the specific situation in this family? As for my sister, you should get married. Do you want a house at home?" Zhao Hong explained.
My sister is not good all of a sudden, my sister is only two years younger than my brother, and she is twenty-four years old, although she has just graduated and has to hurry to find a partner.
My sister was a little unwilling to ask, "What if I don't have a house?"
"Hmm, what's the situation?" the parents' attention immediately shifted. I looked at my sister together to explain.
My sister hurriedly said, "Introduced by my colleague, everything else is fine, but I am not tall and my home is from other places." It's good for me. ”
The parents continued to watch and did not speak, and my sister became more and more uncomfortable. Go on;
"I've known him for more than two months and we're still getting to know him. He graduated from the Mining Institute, four years older than me, his family is nm, and his ancestral home is also from S Province, which is actually the two counties on the border line of the two provinces that have migrated less than 100 miles. The father is a teacher, the mother is a housewife, and the three brothers are the eldecidest. He is also the only college student. Unique, old and serious. Work in a government department. ……”
As my sister spoke, Zhao Hong suddenly smiled, isn't he the former brother-in-law? I have a good relationship with my family, especially my sister, and my nephew is also a very good big boy. Got acquainted so early?
My sister blushed a little and couldn't go on. Glared at Zhao Hong. After all, it was Zhao Hongxian who mentioned this problem. Zhao Hong gave a helpless look back. I just wanted to change the topic, but I didn't expect my sister to really have a situation.
The elder sister muttered in a low voice, "He's outside, and he's coming in the morning." ”
"What?" the parents stood up in a hurry. "How can this be, it's so rude. If you don't want to, don't let people come, if you want to, you can receive it, how can you keep the young man waiting outside. If you want, call in first, and find out that there is always a need. ”
Zhao Hong didn't say anything, this brother-in-law is good to his sister and family, but the feudal thinking in the countryside is serious, the macho thinking is serious, and sometimes he doesn't have enough respect for his family. So Zhao Hong didn't want them to be sure quickly.
It's also good to hold up, and there are some prerequisites that need to be set. It is true that the family burden is heavy, and there are many discordant factors in the family, so it is necessary to protect my sister as much as possible. Girls are prone to losses, and it's understandable to think more.
My sister thought about it again and again, but she decided to invite him in, she didn't fall in love when she was studying, and she was older after graduation, so she had to hurry. Isn't this one very good, will the next one be good? It's hard.
After a while, my sister led a tall boy into the house, he was still good, white and clean, some men's temperament was very calm, and he looked like a government unit. Speaking Mandarin, he briefly introduced his situation.
After reading it, the parents also understood the reason for their daughter's choice. It's really good, just my own conditions are acceptable, but the family is in a foreign country, the family burden will be very heavy, and the trouble of brothers and sisters alone will continue. It's not just a matter of money, it's emotional entanglement, in the Three Kingdoms era of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, can my sister be a Sima Yi, can't be Zhou Yu was angry to death, and can't be like Zhuge Kongming was tired to death.
His parents politely told him, and the family discussed it again, and politely asked his sister to send him out, and asked her to come back immediately.
My sister sent her friend out with a bad face, and it took a while to come back.
Zhao Hong left quietly. Let's stay up slowly, if you can still persist until you get married, Zhao Hong can help in terms of economic foundation. But other aspects of the problem are really troublesome.
It can't be mixed casually. It is easy to adopt a daughter, but it is difficult to marry a daughter.
