Chapter 232: Bow
This year, the Yang family did not have a good year. As soon as the third day of junior high school passed, even the relatives who usually went didn't go, and the whole family began to be busy with Yang Qitai's marriage.
This marriage has gone from the initial "Nacai asking for names" to the present, and it has come to the last step. The day before the wedding, the man's family picked half a pig, chicken, duck, fish and other big dishes to the woman's house for a "gift", as well as the man's bride price, which was to be taken out at this time. At this time, it is also a new clothes, leather shoes, watches and other practical things, and the "three golds" and "four major pieces" are also said.
The Yang family is very well prepared, not only the most fashionable tweed coat cotton leather shoes, but also a pair of "Puhai" brand watches brought back by Yang Xiaobet, which is a famous brand! Yi Huifen gained countless envious eyes, and she thought arrogantly, "What is this?" If it weren't for the fear of being too outstanding, there would be a set of gold jewelry that I didn't take out! ”
This is also Yang Xiaobei's decision to buy, thinking that in the future, my mother will always envy other people's three or four golds, saying that she had nothing at that time, and now that she has this opportunity, of course she has to make up for this regret for her mother! However, after the catastrophe of the past few years, the rich families in the countryside have disappeared, and the gold and silver jewelry are also tightly hidden, and no one dares to show them off.
Of course, the Yi family didn't take this thing seriously before. The woman's words said, what good face has not been seen? But later, in order to spend money to eliminate the disaster, after wars and movements, there was no left at home. In the face of these mundane things, human life is the most important!
Now that her granddaughter has such a set of gold jewelry to marry, it also makes up for the shortcomings in her grandmother's heart. But she is used to being cautious, the cruelty of the previous struggle seems to be just yesterday, and now everyone is plain, and some people say that they have a silver jewelry, let alone a set of gold shining? Because it was too eye-catching, at her insistence, even if Yi Huifen liked it, she still didn't put it out, and she was tightly pressed to the bottom of the box.
After the big gift comrades, after eating lunch at the man's house, they will not be empty when they go back, and they will bring the dowry carefully prepared by the woman. Generally, it is a large item such as boxes and cabinets, each with its own exquisiteness. The eldest daughter of the Yi family is married, naturally there are many and good preparations, the person who carries the things is tired and happy, the dowry of the woman's family is good-looking, the man is happy, and the red envelope will be thicker at that time.
Yi Huifen's dowry is the latest furniture, chest of drawers, cabinets, wardrobes, wooden boxes, etc. Don't look too kind to Yang Xiaobei - until later generations, these furniture are still in her parents' room. At this time, it was all solid wood furniture, and the master carpenter was invited to make it at home, and it was brushed with a layer of varnish, which was dignified and firm. There is no problem with using it for decades, and it is much more durable than the furniture made of plywood later.
Although all the chests of drawers and standing cabinets are in the form of form, the carpenter still combines the advantages of old-fashioned furniture, and all of them are made of "beautiful feet" and carved in the corners. This kind of solid wood furniture with a strong shadow of Ming and Qing dynasty furniture has rarely been seen in later generations. Some "vintage" furniture, with its form but without its spirit, even if it is valuable, is never as tasteful as the mother's accessories.
Of course, although the furniture is good, it is only the proper meaning of the question. Everyone's eyes are focused on a TV, even if it is not connected to the line, just looking at this big box is already surrounded by water. Oh, I forgot to say, for this TV, the Yi family also specially made a TV cabinet!
Speaking of which, I have to say that the second uncle had another quarrel with the second aunt. Fortunately, the family is separated now, the second uncle's house is a little far away from the old house, and there is a mother-in-law who lives, and the family will not go over, and no one knows about it.
Originally, Second Uncle Yi's plan was to give his eldest sister a tape recorder to marry. This is a fashionable thing, and the eldest sister likes to sing and listen to operas, so make sure she likes it and has face. At that time, the second aunt was a hundred unhappy in her heart, and the reason was not repeated, anyway, the second uncle felt that the money was earned by himself, and the marriage for the eldest sister was necessary, so he didn't care about it at all.
Later, Zhou Pinzheng and Huang Zhiyi went online and got a lot of good things, including TVs. At this time, even the TV sets in Baiyun County were still a minority, let alone the countryside, until the seventh. It took eight years for it to become more widespread. But the second uncle knows that this is a good thing! In addition, it was also Zhou Pinzheng's heart, so he got a TV set over.
Now the family is in turmoil. In the eyes of the second aunt, now this family relies on their second room, and the house and expenses, which one is not from their own family? So how can there be a good thing that you don't have at home, so you give it to the girl you marry? It's not a TV problem, it's a dignity problem!
The second aunt made a fuss regardless of it, and for the first time, the second uncle had an opinion on this woman he liked at a glance. Sure enough, the hair is long and the knowledge is short, and the original shape has been leaked in just a few days? When he was not married, he thought that his daughter-in-law was beautiful, smart and capable, and it was good to do anything. Now it seems that being too "capable" is not a thing, too calculating, and it is all counted in his own family.
She didn't want to think about it, if it wasn't for Xiaobei, he would be able to follow Zhou Pinzheng to do business? If it weren't for Zhou Pinzheng, where would he get the TV? It was because of Yi Huifen that they specially got one and sent it over in the name of dowry. Will these daughters-in-law not understand? She just wanted to take the TV!
It's not just a TV. As long as the cooperative has been cooperating with the Huang family, there will be more good things coming over in the future, and this is just the first batch. The second uncle never felt that he would not not be able to earn even a TV. At that time, not only will there be at home, but he will also send it to the old house and the eldest brother's house, so that grandma can also watch "TV dramas". But his wife's stingy approach to everything made him very annoyed.
In the end, he got angry and suppressed his unrelenting daughter-in-law. The mother-in-law also came forward to mediate, and she reluctantly suppressed this matter. In order not to let his parents worry about it, he pressed it and didn't make a fuss, but there was already a shadow in his heart, and he was not as obedient to his wife as before.
In fact, this kind of thing, if there is a stir in the countryside, someone will know about it, and it has already reached the ears of the Yi family. But the second uncle didn't say it, and they didn't make it clear. Yang Xiaobei also listened to Yi Huifen, and she was quite happy - the second aunt dropped her vest in front of the second uncle so quickly, and she was so happy!
The second aunt is really very smart. It's a pity that cleverness is not used in the right place. In her previous life, she was used to acting, and she could speak and speak, and her second uncle had been running business outside, and she thought that her daughter-in-law was as filial and sensible as him, and she was kept secret. As everyone knows, when he didn't know, how much his grandparents were wronged. It wasn't until my grandmother was seriously ill and everyone took turns to serve the sick that her true colors were revealed.
The second uncle was sad and disappointed, but what was the use? The child is also older, and the old lady is gone, except that the two are not as close as before, nothing can change. Mom, they have always been the most unaccustomed to the second sister-in-law, and they rarely even take it to the second brother's house, and then the second uncle died early, and his children were cut off from the Yi family, and every time I talked about it, my mother hated it very much.
Now that the second aunt has dropped her vest in advance, they have been married for less than two years, and the second uncle does not believe in his daughter-in-law in everything, so he should "train" one or two in the future, so that the aunt is not so excessive! Yang Xiaobei thought happily. In fact, the second uncle's daughter is two years older than her, and the two of them had the best time at her grandmother's house when they were children, and they cried tears every time they broke up. Later, I was alienated by my second aunt, and when I grew up, I lost contact with my cousin, and I got angry when I thought about it, what a good childhood friend!
