is too polite, it will only alienate people, the friendship between Zhao Qingshan and Zhao Youtian is on the table, and there is no need to be polite about a meal.

Besides, Zhao Qingshan didn't plan to go to Zhao Youtian's house to eat rice, and he still understood the etiquette. Zhao Qingshan still thought that after going to Zhao Youtian's house for lunch in a while, he would still have to call General Zhou! In the entire Zhaojiagou, only the brigade headquarters managed by Zhao Youtian had installed a telephone.

Seeing that Zhao Qingshan agreed to go to his house for lunch, Zhao Youtian hurriedly said goodbye happily.

Being the first person to invite Zhao Qingshan to dinner, Zhao Youtian felt that he had a lot of face.

Zhao Youtian plans to go home and let his son go to the town to cut another piece of meat and come back, but it is rare that the old secretary has become a person in the city, and he did not treat Zhao Youtian as an outsider!

After Zhao Qingshan sent Zhao Youtian away, he turned around and was about to enter the door, when a familiar voice sounded behind him.

"Uncle Qingshan, at home!"

Zhao Qingshan frowned and stopped.

Zhao Qingshan heard it, and the person who spoke was Zhao Hongsheng.

According to the customs of Sanhe Town, both men and women get married, and generally speaking, the man must take the initiative to ask for marriage. No matter how willing the woman is in her heart, she has to take Qiao before she agrees to the family affair. Before the marriage is settled, the woman's elders will not come to the man's house.

Zhao Hongsheng came so rashly, did he have any harsh conditions to mention?

It's no wonder that Zhao Qingshan thinks like this, it is really the "big gift" he received when he went to the village first, which makes Zhao Qingshan remember it vividly. With a bride price of 5,000 yuan, Zhao Qingshan really had never heard of such a generous amount of money from that family to marry a daughter-in-law.

However, Zhao Qingshan is not a person who can be manipulated, if Zhao Hongsheng is here to talk nonsense, Zhao Qingshan plans to propose marriage, he advises General Zhou to let it go first. Anyway, Zhou Jiasheng and Zhao Xiaocao are still young! It's not too late to live three or five years.

Zhao Qingshan thought about it in a blink of an eye, and he had already thought of a way to deal with it. Only then did he turn around and say nonchalantly: "Ah! It's Hongsheng, a rare guest." ”

"Uncle Qingshan, I haven't seen you for many years, is your body okay?" Zhao Hongsheng greeted with a smile on his face.

"It's okay, old arms and legs, it works for the time being. Zhao Qingshan waved his hand and replied lightly.

"Uncle Qingshan, my mother asked me to ask, is this house still cleaned up? If you are not satisfied, I will let Xiaocao come over and clean up again?" Zhao Hongsheng turned his mind and found such a reason.

"It's good, your mother does things, I don't worry. Hearing Zhao Hongsheng mention Aunt Gu, Zhao Qingshan couldn't help but think of what Zhao Youtian said to him just now, and he was a little disgusted with Zhao Hongsheng. Unfilial descendants, Zhao Qingshan really can't look down on them.

Zhao Hongsheng saw that Zhao Qingshan's face was a little gloomy, thinking that it was the rumors in the village that made Zhao Qingshan angry, so he hurried closer and said: "Uncle Qingshan, I'm really embarrassed, my mother-in-law was so happy yesterday that she talked to a few close people about our two families getting married, the bride price or something, it was a joke that Qiu Lian said, but I didn't expect to be taken seriously." ”

"Hongsheng, sit inside!" Zhao Qingshan stretched out his hand and let go. The visitor was a guest, and Zhao Qingshan didn't plan to stand at the intersection and talk to Zhao Hongsheng about the two children's family affairs. For Zhao Xiaocao's sake, Zhao Qingshan is willing to save two points of face for Zhao Hongsheng.

"No, no, when Uncle Qingshan comes to my house, let's have a good chat. When Zhao Hongsheng said this, he was afraid that Zhao Qingshan would not understand his words, so he reminded vaguely: "My mother and the child are both people who feel sorry for the child, and we will not treat Xiaocao as a cash cow." ”

After finishing speaking, Zhao Hongsheng didn't dare to look at Zhao Qingshan's face, and hurriedly left. The words have already been spoken, and it doesn't make much sense for Zhao Hongsheng to stay.

At the moment of discussing relatives, Zhao Hongsheng, as the woman's parent, did not dare to enter the door of Zhao's house. Otherwise, the people in the village would have thought that Zhao Hongsheng was in a hurry to marry his daughter to the Zhou family. This kind of behavior is taboo, the kind that will be despised by the people in the village for a lifetime.

After Zhao Qingshan returned to the house, his mind was still a little dazed.

He had just figured out how to deal with the high-priced bride price, why did Zhao Hongsheng retreat? Could it be his new trick of advancing and retreating?

It's no wonder that Zhao Qingshan thinks so, it's really Zheng Qiulian's reputation for "dying for money" is too loud. For the sake of money, Zheng Qiulian can scold the old man, for the sake of money, and if she has the reputation of "selling her daughter", Zheng Qiulian should not take it to heart.

However, since Zhao Hongsheng "figured it out", Zhao Qingshan did not hold on to this matter anymore. Marriage is not enmity, everyone takes a step back, which is good.

Under Zhao Hongsheng's deliberate concession, Zhou Jiasheng and Zhao Xiaocao's family affair went unexpectedly smoothly.

In the afternoon of the same day, the status of Zhou Jiasheng and Zhao Xiaocao's fiancée was decided.

Of course, Zhao Qingshan will not really give nothing, for the sake of the face of the two families, Zhao Qingshan gave Xiaocao a bride price of 888 yuan in accordance with the standards of marriage in Kyoto City, and privately gave Xiaocao a red envelope of 1,000 yuan.

Zhao Hongsheng also secretly congratulated himself on his wit. Fortunately, he bowed his head to Zhao Qingshan first, otherwise, such a good family affair might have flown away.

Zhou Jiashengle almost didn't hold a face, but he still pretended to be cold for a few hours under the sight of Zhou Yuanyuan who wanted to "kill".

Zhao Xiaocao has been hiding in Aunt Gu's room and has not come out. First, it is the custom that when the man comes to the door to propose, the girl has to hide, indicating the girl's reserve. Second, Zhao Xiaocao is busy!

After Zhao Qingshan and the others entered the door, Zhou Yuanyuan found Zhao Xiaocao and gave her a pill, saying that it was good for Aunt Gu's body.

Aunt Gu's body was very weak, and even on this happy day, Aunt Gu couldn't get up to meet the guests.

After Zhao Xiaocao was busy giving Gu Da Niang medicine, she sat on the edge of Gu Da Niang's bed and listened to her babbling some gossip.

This night, Zhao Qingshan and Zhou Jiasheng were in a good mood and slept soundly.

Zhou Yuanyuan quietly ran to the Great Green Mountain to cultivate.

Every time he returned to Zhaojiagou, Zhou Yuanyuan couldn't help but run to Daqing Mountain to swing around a few times. Even if you don't hunt, just looking at the grass and trees in Daqing Mountain is a pleasant feeling for Zhou Yuanyuan.

Tonight, the moon is exceptionally round, casting a clear glow in the forest.

After Zhou Yuanyuan vomited two big Zhou days, a long-lost voice sounded: "Master." ”

"Xiaoyu, are you awake?" Zhou Yuanyuan called out in surprise.

"Master, I'm on the cut. Xiaoyu's voice was full of joy.

Absorbing the jade aura of a jade mine, Xiao Yu's body was much stronger. If it is said that Xiao Yu before absorbing the jade aura had the energy of a basin of water that dried up into a drop of water, now Xiao Yu has the energy of two drops of water.
