Chapter Ninety-Six: Unexpected?
The golden rooster sang three times, ushering in the morning glow.
Brother Tuesday felt that he could afford to put it down.
Although I still feel uncomfortable in my heart, it is not so obvious on my face.
He just ate in silence and worked in silence.
And Uncle Zhou and Uncle Zhou, who had already gotten the news, were peeking at his son on the side, although their faces were flat, their eyes were full of smiles.
This old couple can be regarded as a genuine pit son, and they just endured it all morning without saying anything.
Until lunchtime, Grandpa Zhou couldn't see his grandson's silent appearance.
glared at his son and daughter-in-law, and scolded: "You guys, really, watching your son's jokes here, right?" What's going on, hurry up and explain it to the child. ”
Brother Tuesday, who was originally absent-minded and stuffed steamed buns into his mouth, was stunned when he heard his grandfather's words.
Uncle Zhou heard his father's scolding, coughed twice in embarrassment, and touched his nose.
Aunt Zhou lowered her head and pursed her lips and snickered.
Uncle Zhou coughed dryly, looked at his second son, and said: "Cough, cough, your Uncle Liu didn't come back until you went back to sleep yesterday, and he said that the girl's father and mother were originally reluctant to find a rural area, and wanted to find a job for their daughter in the city." Later, when the girl heard the letter, she ran home, and she was in the house with her mother, and she didn't know what she was saying, and when her mother came out of the house, their attitude changed, and they neither agreed nor disagreed, saying that they wanted to see what people were like. ”
Uncle Zhou paused, and then arrived: "Second son, all we can do is the bride price money for the wedding, as for whether this money can be spent, it depends on your performance." Second son...... Second son...... What do you think, didn't you hear what we said!" Uncle Zhou looked at his stunned son, and called twice before he came back to his senses.
As soon as his father opened his mouth, Brother Tuesday was dumbfounded, and this surprise came so suddenly that he couldn't believe it. It wasn't until his father called him that he woke up and understood what was going on, and his heart, which was a little heavy, jumped again, and the smile on his face couldn't be stopped, and he laughed silly.
Looking at his stupid appearance, the three people at the dinner table all gave him a roll of the eyes.
After eating, Brother Tuesday, who still had a smirk on his face, was pulled into his grandfather's house by his father and his grandfather, saying that they wanted to teach him some skills to please his father-in-law's family.
Grandpa Zhou is a cultural person, and what he tells his grandson is nothing more than books, letters, and so on.
"You just listen to grandpa, it's definitely true, your grandma fell in love with me back then. ”
Next, Grandpa Zhou talked to his grandson for half an hour, and the glorious history of that year, in the end, was still a little unfinished.
But he was interrupted by Uncle Zhou and said, "Hey, hey, Dad, Dad, listen to me, I say." Let me tell you the second son, if you want to please your father-in-law, the first time you meet you, you have to dress well, clean yourself up decently, don't be like a flower child, no one will look down on you. Second, you have to have a mouth for dessert, and you have to be able to say to others, well, I guess you should be about the same, you can talk better than your big brother. The third is to work, don't spare any effort to work for others, and you rush to do any dirty work. If you do what my grandfather and I have taught you, your daughter-in-law will not be far from you. ”
Brother Tuesday was stunned by what his father and his grandfather said, and only now did she understand why his brother and his sister-in-law looked up the dictionary and wrote letters every day when they first got engaged. There are also those three days when the two of them ran to the old man's house to work for others. He had been wondering for a long time, thinking that his brother had suddenly opened his mind.
Now I understand, it must be his grandfather and his father, who taught his eldest brother the same way.
Don't say it, these tricks may be really useful, you don't see how good his eldest brother and sister-in-law are now.
Brother Tuesday sat there carefully and considered which one he should implement first.
Grandpa Zhou and Uncle Zhou, as soon as they saw him sitting there thinking, they knew that he should have listened.
Grandpa Zhou greeted him again: "Okay, don't sit here and think about it, we'll tell you what you should tell." You go, go up to your sister and ask your sister for her opinion, and then go up there and learn the scriptures. ”
"Hmm!" Brother Tuesday got up and walked out of the door with a hum, and walked out of the door to Zhou Shujie's house.
Brother Zhou walked away, and Grandpa Zhou in the house stared at his back until he walked out of the gate.
Only then did he look back at Uncle Zhou and asked, "Let's talk about it, does her family have other requirements?" ”
Uncle Zhou smiled and said, "Dad, how do you know?"
Grandpa Zhou glared at him, and said angrily: "A girl in the city, she has to look good, and she has to work." Even if she is willing, her father and mother are definitely unwilling, since she is unwilling and does not want to fall out with the girl, then she must make some excessive demands with us. Do you think I'm as stupid as Xiao Er, don't be sloppy with me, tell me what's going on?"
Uncle Zhou sighed and said: "Alas, the bride price is 3,000, and I also need a set of furniture, which is said to be the most fashionable in the big city, what kind of high and low cabinets of Shanghai brand." It's okay if it's only 3,000 dollars. Even if we don't have enough to borrow some, it's enough, this furniture has to be a high and low cabinet of Shanghai brand, so where can we buy it for her. ”
After listening to Uncle Zhou's words, Grandpa Zhou didn't squeak, put on the cigarette pouch, chirp, chirped two puffs, and then said: "Since the people's request is mentioned, let's try our best to meet it, who let our two sons fall in love with the girl." If we really can't do it, then it's a pity that this thing is yellow. ”
Uncle Zhou listened to the old man's words, nodded and said: "Then it can only be like this, we have almost enough money, the main thing is this furniture, I will ask Lao Liu if he has any ideas?"
Grandpa Zhou hummed and nodded.
Uncle Zhou went out of the courtyard and went to Secretary Liu's house.
Besides, Brother Tuesday walked to Zhou Shujie's house with a smirk on his face, and everyone he met on this road greeted them with a smile, and the monk who made it a little bit confusing to others didn't understand what he was happy about.
Zhou Shujie was sitting in the house and heard someone knocking on the door outside.
When she opened the door, she saw that it was her second brother, so she let his brother in.
wanted to lead her second brother into the house, but her second brother didn't do it.
If you have to stand in the courtyard and talk to her, Zhou Shujie will be confused.
He opened his mouth and asked, "What's the matter, second brother, what's wrong?" Looking at his second brother's smirk, it doesn't look like a bad thing! Why is her second brother so mysterious?
Actually, Brother Tuesday was embarrassed to ask these words in front of his sister's mother-in-law, so he didn't go into the house with his sister to say it outside.
"Well, girl, you say, something that an unusual girl should like. In his heart, the girl he liked was not an ordinary person.
After listening to the second brother's words, Zhou Shujie was stunned.
What an unusual girl!
Is there any difference between this girl?
After thinking about it, she understood that the unusual girl his second brother said must be a salesperson of the supply and marketing cooperative.
Thinking about who it was, Zhou Shujie also felt a little funny in his heart. She has watched a lot of idol dramas, but she can't tell her second brother to take a bouquet of flowers and kneel down to propose!
This doesn't work now, and after thinking about it, I can only think of a more reliable idea.
Zhou Shujie smiled and said: "If this girl is really unusual, she must also be educated, right?" Speaking of this, her second brother nodded, and then continued: "Then she must want to find someone who has a common language, that is, she can speak together." ”
Seeing that his second brother was still a little confused, he continued to explain: "If you don't know what to tell her, then you can create this common topic." For example, if you read a book, you can find a good book first, and then show it to her after you finish reading, and then, the two of you are discussing the content of this book, can't you talk about it together!"
After Brother Tuesday listened to Zhou Shujie explain to him, he suddenly felt that his head was suddenly open.
I said thank you to his sister-in-law, turned around and walked out.
He remembered that Wang Xiaoer's family had a few good books, and he had to borrow them back first.
