26. Chapter 26
"That's why you're ...... for us" The second sister has always been concerned about Su Tanqing's risk for them at a young age, and it is also the reason why the three of them are very worried about Su Tanqing's crookedness.
Su Tanqing is too assertive, she has been like this since she was a child, and it is difficult to convince her to make up her mind. They were afraid that once she made a mistake, they were afraid that even they would not be able to make Su Tanqing change her mind.
Su Tanqing cut off her words, "How did you say this?" Why did the whole family say this again? And how can I be what you say? โ
"Okay, okay, if you say no, it's not." The second sister only felt that Su Tanqing was thin-skinned, so she didn't say anything about it according to her wishes.
"Now that you know, why don't you think about your doll?" The eldest sister glared at Su Tanqing and said.
"Huh?" Su Tanqing was dumbfounded, [What the hell is a doll? Where did you go? How can there be children? Well, but it's possible to hold one later...... Ay? No, how did you get here? ใ
Seeing Su Tanqing's bewildered face, the eldest sister had an expression of hatred for iron and steel, "You can't teach the child to farm but teach him to go into the mountains to hunt, right?" Do you bear it? โ
Su Tanqing: "......"
"Yes, how dangerous, think about it, the doll has to face such a dangerous beast at such a young age." The second sister added softly on the side.
Su Tanqing: "......"
[Seems to make sense...... Wait a minute! Where's the kid?! All the sisters have been taken crookedly! ใ
"Besides, when you're old and have no strength, you can't still run all over the mountain, right? By then, it will be too late to think about farming. What do you do then? Well? "The eldest sister always talks a lot. But......
Su Tanqing: "......"
[It makes sense...... But if I wasn't afraid that I would suddenly get into a lot of trouble with a lot of money, I could have bought more land and hired someone to plant it......]
"And our brother-in-law, you can't leave her at home and let her work, and then run into the mountains by herself, right? You finally have a daughter-in-law, don't run away! โ
"That won't be." Su Tanqing swore an oath, [Sure enough, you should buy land and hire someone to hire the landlord, if you have floating wealth and permanent property, there is nothing to worry about, and you can go and play casually. ใ
Although I don't know what Su Tanqing said will not tire the daughter-in-law or the daughter-in-law will not run, the second sister still said along the way. "Yes, you can't tire your brother-in-law, so you can't tire the doll in her belly, right?"
Su Tanqing: "......"
[The dolls in the belly are all out...... Where did you know for sure she was going to have a doll? ใ
"You can't be tired of the doll, so when he is born, you have to teach not hunting but tending to the fields, right?" The second sister is kind and seductive.
"Yes, yes, no one can be tired, no one will be tired." Su Tanqing also knew that her sisters would do what she said, so she just planned and replied casually.
"I hope you do." The second sister gently patted Su Tanqing's arm.
"That's, you must know, daughter-in-law can't be tired."
Eldest Sister: "......"
Second sister: "......"
[So we have said so much about feelings, and you only hear this sentence? Is this marrying a daughter-in-law and forgetting her mother? You haven't married yet!! ใ
"That's right. You see Sister is right, right? That girl is just interesting to you, you see, it's really not leaving, right? The eldest sister looked at Su Tanqing with an expression of "you are still too tender".
Su Tanqing: "......"
[Sister, you...... Are you sure that was the case then? ใ
"If Sister hadn't told her so much, do you think you would ...... Uh-huh, huh? "The eldest sister looks very honored.
โโฆโฆ Oh. Su Tanqing didn't know what to say.
"Oh what? Ready for the bride price? When do you plan to get married? If you make your belly bigger first, it won't look good when you get married. The eldest sister can't wait to wake up the "stupid brother".
"Bride price...... I have silver, but I don't know if I want to buy anything else...... Belly...... How can it be...... Wait a minute! I don't know if it's going to work! "Wait! I haven't asked what Eleven Niang means! ใ
โโฆโฆ Stupid you forget it, we have to propose, of course we asked her if it was okay. Even if it doesn't work, I'll tell it yes. "The eldest sister is full of confidence.
"Yes...... Is it? Su Tanqing didn't know whether to confess to Yang Shiniang first in front of her sister.
"Where's the silver? Let the second sister buy you a bride price. Look at your stupidity. The eldest sister was disgusted with Su Tanqing in her mouth, but she was still quite satisfied with her "younger brother" who "won" Yang Shiniang alone, and the corners of her mouth were raised and she never put it down.
"That'...... Then don't worry, wait for me to ...... first" Su Tanqing hesitated.
"How can you rely on you if you're stupid? Your third sister has already gone to talk about it. โ
"What?!" Su Tanqing was surprised, and then frowned and wondered, [Already said? How will Eleven Niang reply...... Will she be upset? Will she ......]
"You look at the stupid brother, he used to be in no hurry, but now he finally knows that he is in a hurry." The eldest sister said to the second sister with a smile.
"Stupid brother" Su Tanqing: "......"
Su Tanqing didn't have time to look at her eldest sister who was laughing at herself, she was immersed in her own apprehension......
Fortunately, the third sister soon brought good news and Yang Shiniang's eight characters, so the eldest sister immediately asked the second sister to prepare the bride price, let the third sister prepare things for relatives, and asked the two brothers-in-law to take time to help.
The eldest sister herself happily packed up her things at home, planning to pack up some first, return to her husband's house and find a fortune teller to calculate a good day, and then notify relatives and friends to come over.
Although their relationship with the village is not very good, this kind of happy event will still be celebrated by everyone.
Only Su Tanqing, who was still in a dream, was still in a trance, and he still felt that it was a dream after a long time.
I thought about it for a long time and didn't know what I was thinking, and then I saw my busy sister and remembered that the customs here might be different from those in Yang Shiyiniang's hometown, and they should be much more shabby......
Su Tanqing hurriedly went to find the ancient etiquette that should be in the process from marriage proposal to marriage.
In ancient times, the marriage rites of the Han nationality were six ceremonies. That is: Nacai, ask for names, Najib, Nazheng, invitation, welcome.
Nacai means that the man's family invites the matchmaker to go to the woman's house to propose, and after the woman's family agrees to propose marriage, the man's family prepares six ceremonies before the marriage proposal.
Asking for a name, that is, the man's family asks the matchmaker to ask the woman's name and date of birth.
Najib, that is, after the man retrieves the woman's name and eight characters, he performs divination in the ancestral temple.
Na Zheng, also known as Na Yuan, that is, the man's family gives the woman's family a dowry gift.
The invitation date, the man's family chooses the marriage date, prepares the gift and informs the woman's family, and asks for her consent.
Welcome, that is, the groom goes to the woman's house to marry.
Su Tanqing: "......"
They only perform four salutes here, omitting the name and asking for the date, and they are attributed to Nacai and Nazheng respectively. And the bride price is actually a dowry gift, and it doesn't give anything when proposing.
And since Yang Shiniang decided by herself, it seems that Na Cai and the third sister have come together......
The woman's name and eight characters will not be divined in the ancestral temple, but just find a fortune teller to combine the eight characters and count the days by the way......
Will the dowry return to Su Tanqing's house in the end? Even Qin Ying doesn't know where Yang Shiyi Niang should go to wait now......
The more Su Tanqing thought about it, the more she felt that it was too simple, and she didn't know if Yang Shiniang would feel regretful in her heart......
That night, the sisters all left to go back to their husband's house to prepare, Su Tanqing thought about it, and called Yang Shiyi Niang to the yard.
"Eleven Niang, is there any difference between your customs over there and here? Is there anything else I need to do? "It happened to be the middle of the month, and although the weather was getting cooler, they didn't need to care if they had internal strength to protect their bodies.
Yang Shiniang was not very confident in herself, and she could see that it was Su Tanqing's sister who crossed Su Tanqing today, but she still agreed.
When she was called out by Su Tanqing just now, she was still wondering if Su Tanqing had no intention of her. Hearing this, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then felt that Su Tanqing's intentions were even sweeter. "Just follow the customs here."
Su Tanqing raised his eyebrows when he heard this, [That is, it is indeed different? She looked at Yang Shiniang seriously, "Don't feel troublesome or anything, I don't want you to leave regrets." โ
The silver moonlight sprinkled on Su Tanqing's serious face like flowing water, Yang Shiyi Niang looked at Su Tanqing's eyes that were set off by the moonlight and became clearer, and said seriously: "No, I don't have a mother's family, and if I completely follow the six rites, it will only make me feel embarrassed and ...... Not worthy of you. โ
When she said the back, Yang Shiniang turned her face away a little shyly.
The same moonlight sprinkled on Yang Shiniang, but it made Su Tanqing feel like she was a fairy in the moon.
"How so?" Su Tanqing looked at her and replied, then looked at the moon and recalled. "When I first saw you, I just thought you were stupid, showing so many flaws." Su Tanqing smiled and looked back at Yang Shiniang, who was looking at her curiously because Su Tanqing said about herself.
"It's because I've only met you as an official speaker, and I've been at that butcher's house before, so I don't know that it's almost impossible to be polite here." When talking about the butcher, Yang Shiniang cautiously and secretly glanced at Su Tanqing's expression, although she knew that Su Tanqing knew about it early in the morning, she was still afraid that she would have a bad idea about it.
Fortunately, Su Tanqing didn't care about this, and his expression and eyes did not change because of this. She continued: "Later, I probably guessed that your identity was not simple, and I didn't think you were the kind of pedantic person I imagined. I also have a lot of admiration for your tenacity. โ
"The fourth brother laughed." Yang Shiniang was not only happy because Su Tanqing didn't care that she was bought, but also ashamed of Su Tanqing's straightforward praise.
"Not a joke." looked at Yang Shiniang, her eyes were full of sincerity. "You know I'm impatient with the twists and turns, so I'm more blunt. But what I say is what I want to say, and nothing else...... That's something. โ
In ancient times, it was too straightforward or explicit words or poems for โกโก, or some concubines. is a very respectful attitude towards his wife, and he has to cover up and metaphorize his feelings. With the exception of some "madmen" or open dynasties, of course.
"Yes, I understand what you mean, you mean to say that you don't mean to look down on me." Yang Shiniang's eyes were a little sour, she knew Su Tanqing's unruliness better than others. It was hard to think that she had to understand these hidden meanings because she was thinking about her own feelings.
