Chapter 560: Poor Mountains and Bad Waters Come Out of the People
Qin Yan's house took more than an hour to arrive, and there were still twenty or thirty kilometers of road down after the local county seat, everyone thought that if she could give birth to a girl as smart as Qin Yan, it would definitely be a good place for outstanding people, but before they arrived at the entrance of the village, everyone was dumbfounded, surrounded by large trucks pulling ore, and the dust in the sky was simply covering the sky.
"Pay the bill! Ten dollars for the big cart and five dollars for the small car......"
As soon as they entered the village, everyone was dumbfounded again, more than a dozen old ladies actually blocked the road, and collected the fees of passing vehicles one by one, and the efficiency was not much worse than that of regular toll stations, and the driver just wanted to argue with them angrily, but a small truck next to him reminded: "Brother! It's just a few dollars, don't worry about them, otherwise they will have to come out and lie down directly under your wheels, and then it won't be as simple as a few dollars! β
"This ...... This is not a robbery......"
The driver was so angry that he even stammered when he spoke, and Ge Jie on the co-pilot had an ugly face, and he had no choice but to take out five yuan and wanted to hand it over, but a half-sized man suddenly came out next to him, and excitedly shouted to those old ladies: "Milk!" Get out of the way, it's our brother-in-law who is sending a dowry! β
"Oops~ Why didn't you say it earlier, go back and let people light a cannon to welcome our new aunt......"
The old lady in the lead also laughed excitedly, and hurriedly waved her hand to let a group of old ladies get out of the way, and those old women who seemed to be seventy or eighty were actually very skilled, and they all rushed up quickly and grabbed the car window to please the cigarettes and candy, so frightened that Ge Tao hurriedly shouted at the back: "Brother Zhao!" Courier strip cigarettes to me! β
"Take it!"
Zhao Ziqiang hurriedly opened one from the back and handed it over, who knew that he only heard a whoosh, and the entire cigarette in his hand was actually gone, just to see an old woman with a rickety waist disappear at lightning speed, and even Zhao Ziqiang didn't react at an astonishing speed.
"I ...... I rely on ......."
Zhao Ziqiang was stunned and shouted, there are really few people who can take things away from him, if it weren't for the fact that the old woman really has no momentum, he really suspected that the other party was a hidden martial arts master, and Liu Min The candy they just took out was also quickly ransacked, and they almost snatched the bracelets on their hands together.
"Why are the people here like this......"
Erin stomped her little feet with shame on her face, and her hands were actually picked out by the robber, and Ge Tao's face was a little unbearable, wiped the cold sweat on her forehead and said, "I...... It's the first time I've come here, maybe it's the customs and habits here, I want to be happy when I see a happy event, but Qin Yan and her family are very good, and you know Qin Yan's personality! Hehe~"
Before Ge Tao's words fell, the front began to crackle and set off firecrackers, and the people here are very united, as soon as the cannons were fired, almost the whole village rushed out, beating gongs and drums to greet them, seeing this lively and extraordinary scene, just a little unpleasantness was immediately swept away, Ge Tao hurriedly greeted the driver with joy.
"The bridegroom! The first time we meet, we have to give everyone a meaning......"
A group of villagers beating gongs and drums quickly surrounded them, directly blocked the car and began to ask for cigarettes and candy again, Ge Tao had to let Zhao Ziqiang and they dismantle the cigarettes and distribute them over, although they learned smart this time, carefully put the cigarettes in their arms and handed them to Ge Tao one by one, but the three cigarettes blinked and glowed, but there were more and more people blocking the road.
"Ge Tao! I can't send it, no amount of cigarettes will be enough for them......"
Liu Min hurriedly stepped forward to remind Ge Tao that these villagers had come to welcome them into the village, and they were obviously taking the opportunity to block the road and rob them. robbed, but didn't rob the small goods behind, and this is just a bride price, if you really wait until you get married, you will have to do it.
"No smoke! It's really all over, so you can let us go......"
Ge Tao was also anxious and sweaty, so he begged the villagers to let them go, but the villagers didn't pay attention to it at all, and actually asked him to send a red envelope directly, and found that gold was okay without a red envelope, but Zhao Ziqiang suddenly handed a paper bag to the window, and sure enough, it was snatched away by someone at a whoosh, and he immediately shouted loudly: "Hurry!" The red envelopes are all in his hands, who grabbed whom, there are tens of thousands of yuan in them! β
"Coax~"
The people blocking in front of the car immediately dispersed, chasing after the kid holding the paper bag, a few small-footed old ladies actually ran faster than the young people, and the driver also took the opportunity to slam the gas pedal and quickly left this land of right and wrong, but Erin beat Zhao Ziqiang and smiled: "Brother Qiang, you are really bad, give a bag of melon seed shells to others and say that it is a red envelope, and you will have to blow them up later!" β
"Cut~ This group of Diao people has to deal with it like this, how can there be such a person who asks for red envelopes, no amount of money can satisfy them......"
Liu Min pouted his lips with disdain, even Ge Tao nodded thoughtfully, and Qin Yan's home soon arrived, just seeing that the half-grown children were happily waving to them on the side of the road, and then a series of firecrackers exploded, and a large group of relatives of Qin Yan's family immediately poured out of the house.
"Huh~ There are so many people, how many relatives does Qin Yan's family have......"
Zhao Ziqiang looked at the big group of people in the dark, and shouted in shock, and Liu Min immediately leaned over and whispered: "There are seven brothers and sisters in the Qin Yan family, she is the second, she is the only girl in the family, and there are five younger brothers who are not married. β
"I'll go! Seven, ah......"
Zhao Ziqiang was also shocked again and again, such a powerful lineup of singles makes people's scalps explode just thinking about it, it would be fine if Qin Yan's younger brothers were reasonable, but if he was used as a cash cow, it would be really miserable to entangle him from now on, and Zhao Ziqiang suddenly understood, why Qin Yan would rather abandon his dignity than earn that unjust money.
"Get out of the car!"
Ge Tao seemed to have begun to realize that his situation was not good, and his face was very stiff and he took everyone out of the car, and Qin Yan's family was built very magnificently, in addition to expanding a very spacious yard, there was also a very foreign three-story building, and there was a garage next to it, and the only car parked in it was Qin Yan's little modern.
"Auntie! What about swallows? β
Ge Tao barely squeezed out a smile, and politely greeted a middle-aged woman dressed in festivity, and the middle-aged woman's eyes were looking at the small goods that pulled the bride price, and she was stunned for a moment before she said with a smile: "The swallow is in the house, but according to our rules, I can't meet you until the wedding day after the bride price, but you are all colleagues, so she has to avoid it for the time being, and then go back with you after eating!" β
"Oh! Good! I brought the bride price according to your request, where do you see it......"
Ge Tao handed the two valuable gifts in his hand to the woman first, and the middle-aged woman smiled, and waved her hand directly to the back, and a group of young men with big shoulders and round waists quickly rushed up, and the truck was unloaded with a little effort, and Liu Min secretly said to Zhao Ziqiang at this time: "No wonder there are so many instant noodles, there is really not enough for them to eat!" β
"I'm sorry for the trouble, let's come in and have a cup of tea......"
The middle-aged woman led everyone into the door with a smile on her face, but as soon as she entered the door, a few people found that something was wrong, Qin Yan's house was actually just a faΓ§ade, and it looked very bright and beautiful from the outside, but there was no decoration in the house at all, the walls were all the most basic cement surface, and even the most basic latex paint was not painted, and the tables, chairs and benches didn't know which year they were.
However, Qin Yan probably inherited her mother's character, her mother is also very eloquent, and after a while, Ge Tao was coaxed around, and happily sat on a nondescript Taishi chair, and a group of relatives surrounded him and kept praising him, almost holding his new aunt to the sky.
"Brother-in-law! I've almost learned the craft, my sister found me a store near your hospital, and wanted me to do business alone, do you think you can help me find someone to do the decoration? I don't know much about that......"
After a while, a little yellow hair stood up, with an absolute killer hairstyle, and there was a smell of inferior shampoo all over his body, and he looked like a "hairstylist", and Liu Min covered his small mouth and immediately smiled secretly, gently pounded Zhao Ziqiang and said: "Here!" blatantly asked for money, Ge Tao's brother-in-law is really a cash cow! β
"Uh~ Haven't you only been studying for a few months? I'm already out of school......"
Ge Tao put down the teacup and looked at Xiao Huangmao very curiously, but Qin Yan's mother immediately smiled and said: "It's not that the fourth child of my family is smart, he can learn that little thing as soon as he learns, and now many people come to him to design his hairstyle, and our family has no relatives and friends in Sujing, so I must be counting on your brother-in-law to help!" β
"Good! Since you want to open a store, I will definitely give my full support......"
Ge Tao nodded generously, but Zhao Ziqiang still saw a trace of reluctance in his eyes, but before his words fell, another kid jumped up and smiled: "Brother-in-law!" I also want to open a ramen restaurant, when you finish helping the fourth child, come and help me, my small shop doesn't cost much, one or two hundred thousand should be about the same, I can count on you! Haha~"
"Multi-...... How much? β
Ge Tao was directly taken aback by his big tone, and almost threw away the teacup he had just picked up, and Qin Yan's mother immediately interjected: "We didn't want to trouble you about this matter, but the third child saw that he was about to ask for a daughter-in-law, and he had to build a house and prepare a bride price, we have borrowed all our relatives, and we really can't squeeze out the money, so you as a brother-in-law, just take a little more responsibility, and they will definitely report you well in the future!" β
"This ...... I'll have to discuss this with Yanzi, so let's get back to it......"
Ge Tao didn't dare to pretend to be generous anymore, seeing that even the boss of the Qin family was about to stand up eagerly, he hurriedly put down the teacup and was about to borrow urine to go to the toilet, but Qin Yan's mother grabbed him again, and pointed to a chef who had just come out with a smile and said: "Hehe~ That's the case, according to the rules on our side, the master who helps the kitchen is going to give a red envelope of 4,000 yuan, and we don't care about this little money, but the rules are rules after all, and you can't take your face!" β
"Four...... Four thousand, isn't it......"
Ge Tao nodded stiffly, and took out a few thousand yuan from his pocket tremblingly, but no matter how he counted it, it was hundreds of dollars, Zhao Ziqiang hurriedly took out a thousand yuan and handed it over, Ge Tao then collected the money and handed it to the cook, Qin Yan immediately laughed exaggeratedly: "Oh~ Our family really found a good uncle, take a look at it, young and promising doctors, you can slowly envy it!" Hahaha......"
"Don't worry too much about a little money, at least Qin Yanren is still good, marrying a good daughter-in-law and going home is better than anything else, isn't it ......"
Zhao Ziqiang could see at a glance that Ge Tao had begun to retreat, but in line with the principle of persuasion and non-persuasion, he quickly patted Ge Tao's shoulder and whispered a few words of comfort, but Ge Tao still let out a long sigh and nodded with a depressed face.
