Chapter 305: Marriage
The date of marriage is set at the end of April. Before dawn this day, even Man'er's family was busy, and Gorou and Xiaoqi took a day off to take care of both sides of the morning shop and the old house.
Lian Zhi'er had a good day, and the family wore new clothes. Lianzhi'er is a silver-red cotton silk gown, and a pomegranate-red skirt reflects a shy and happy pretty face, which adds to the joy. Lian Man'er is a lotus-colored cotton silk shirt, a bean paste-green cotton silk skirt, and the colorful butterflies embroidered on the corners of the skirt almost spread their wings and fly as she walks.
Zhang's got up early in the morning and helped Lian Zhi'er dress up, and Lian Man'er also neatly combed her bag.
After breakfast, after about a cup of tea, I could hear the sound of carriages outside.
"It's coming, the people of the Wu family are here." Shiro, who was sent to guard outside the gate, shouted as he ran into the courtyard.
The people of the Wu family made up their minds to come, and Lian Shouxin, Zhang, and Lian Man'er hurriedly greeted them.
Wu Yugui, Wang and his wife, Wu Jiaxing and Wu Jiayu are all here, and there are also Wang Matchmaker and a little girl. The people of the two families were already familiar with each other, so they went into the house and sat down to talk after a little greeting.
The Wang family asked people to bring the Dingli up.
Zhuanghu people make a small decision, and there is no precedent, the general ceremony is quite simple, a copper hairpin, a ruler is not a few. Even for more impoverished families, such a gift cannot be obtained, but the two parties ask the matchmaker to make a decision, which means that the marriage is confirmed.
The Wu family has prepared five kinds of bride price.
A large crimson tray was covered with plain satin, on which were placed two small phoenix hairpins of red gold, two red gold rings, each of which weighed a pair of gilded silver bracelets, a purple crepe veil with a pair of gold-reduced silver triangular tied to it, and a bright blue Fangsheng silk handkerchief with a pair of minus-reduced silver triangles tied to it. On the other tray are colored satin at both ends.
A rough estimate of how to make such a gift. At least thirty or forty taels of silver.
As soon as the Wu family's Dingli came up, the people in the room only felt that their eyes were bright, and they all admired it. Chapter 305 The Wu family is wealthy, and Lian Zhi'er will definitely enjoy happiness when he marries in the future.
Even Shouxin and Zhang were very happy. The Wu family prepared a rich gift. It shows that they value Lian Zhier and value this family business. This makes them feel that their faces are bright, and they are more assured about their daughter's future.
Wang called Lian Zhi'er to his side, personally put a small phoenix hairpin on her head, and took a ring and put it on Lian Zhi'er's hand.
The whole room looked at it, and Lian Zhi'er hung his head in shame. Wang Jiaxing sat beside Wang, his face was also red, but his eyes fell faithfully on Lian Zhi'er's body.
"This day flies so fast, Zhi'er is seeing such a handsome girl, we have ten miles and eight villages, I don't think anyone can compare to our branches." Jiang Shi laughed beside him.
Today, Lian Zhi'er was married, and the Zhang family also invited the Jiang family to come over to help.
Lian Man'er was busy serving tea and pouring water to the big guys and peeling fruits. I was also very happy for Lian Zhi'er.
"Brother Jiaxing, you drink saliva, you always watch. Strange tired. Lian Man'er deliberately brought tea to Wu Jiaxing and said with a smile.
Wu Jiaxing's face, which was already red, suddenly became more and more red.
The room burst into laughter.
"Man'er, you come to help me ......" Zhang hurriedly called Lian Man'er, afraid that she would continue to be naughty and make Wu Jiaxing embarrassed.
Wang pulled Lian Zhi'er to sit down beside him and looked around. Even the old man, Lian Shouren, Lian Jizu, Gu's, Jiang's, He's, and Zhao's are all there, although Zhao Xiu'e is pregnant, she also came to join in the fun, so the Lian family is not only for those who work on the mountain. Only Zhou and Lian Xiuer did not come.
"Why didn't you see the second aunt and Xiu'er?" Wang asked Zhang.
"Her milk body is not very comfortable, so she didn't come, Xiu'er accompanied her milk in the upper room." Zhang replied, with a hint of helplessness in his smile, but quickly concealed the past.
Lian Zhi'er set up a marriage, and Lian Shouxin and Zhang's went to the room to invite Zhou. Zhou said he had a headache. Refused to come. Both husband and wife knew that Zhou was making trouble. If it was something else, it would be okay, this was a big deal for Zhi'er, and the Zhou family still didn't open up like this, which made the husband and wife feel very uncomfortable.
As a family, it's inevitable that there will be stumbles, but when something happens, you should look like a family. Zhou's doing this made the couple feel cold.
Even the old man persuaded Zhou, but Zhou's attitude was very resolute.
"You and I are faking illness that? I'm going to throw it out of the way. Zhi'er's marriage, without me, you are not the same. At this time, you need me? If I don't go, Zhi'er's family affairs will be undecided? I can't go anywhere, I can't see anyone, co-authoring a marriage for Zhi'er, I have to fight hard to serve? If you force me, force me to death, and you will be happy. Zhou said that she was seriously ill, but when she scolded people, she was full of anger, and everyone could see that she was not sick at all.
Hearing Zhou say this, Zhang turned around and came out.
"She's gone too far. Over the years, I have been treating her, Xiu'er, and my heart as a donkey. Our eldest daughter is married, and this is the same thing for the rest of our lives. We're not begging her for anything, just looking good, begging for a big guy to have a reunion, and she doesn't give her any face. What does she do with us! Zhang returned to the house, and immediately said angrily to Lian Shouxin.
Even Shouxin was cold, but he didn't want to follow Zhang's to say that Zhou's was not.
"Isn't she like that, then I'll put the words in front of me. When Xiu'er has that day, don't think about me going. Zhang gritted her teeth and swore that she was really angry this time.
Zhang was angry, but in front of Wang, it was difficult to say it, and he also said that Zhou was sick.
"The second aunt is sick again, this matter is troublesome." Wang seemed to be taken aback, "Then his father and I will take Jiaxing to meet the second aunt, this won't hinder it, right?" ”
At this point, Wang Shi turned his head and asked the old man.
Even the old man was a little embarrassed.
"You don't have to look at it, your second aunt's problem this time...... I'm scared. In order to cover up his shame, even the old man had to be told.
Wu Yugui and Wang quickly exchanged glances.
"What's not as good as people, we are real relatives, not afraid of this. Again, let's go over and ask Jiaxing to give my second aunt a salute. Wu Yugui said.
Wu Yugui and the Wang family are both people who pay attention to etiquette, so even the old man is not easy to stop.
Wu Yugui and Wang took Wu Jiaxing and Lian Zhi'er out to the upper room, and even Shouxin, Zhang and Lian Man'er followed.
The door to the landlord's house was closed tightly, and Wu Yugui stopped at the door.
"Second aunt, we see that you are getting old." After Wu Yugui shouted this, he could hear all the sounds in the house. Wu Yugui paused slightly before pushing the door open.
Inside the house, Zhou's half-lay on the kang around the quilt, and Lian Xiu'er sat on the side, took a glass of water, and was about to feed it to Zhou.
Lian Man'er swept quickly with her eyes, and Zhou's forehead was imprinted with three small blue circles, which were traces left by cupping, if it weren't for her ruddy face, she really looked like she was sick.
Zhou drank water from Lian Xiu'er's hand, but there was no water in the water cup at all.
Zhou's appearance is very natural, but Lian Xiu'er is obviously a little cramped.
Wu Yugui and Wang took Wu Jiaxing to salute and greet Zhou, and asked about Zhou's condition.
"I did a sin in my last life, I didn't have good children, and it was useless to die ......of anger," Zhou said, and obviously sandwiched Lian Shouxin and Zhang from the corner of his eye.
"You are always a blessed person, relax and everything will be fine. In the future, we will get closer to each other, and you will be happy when you look at it. Wang didn't pay attention to Zhou's words, but said with a smile.
"There's no water" Lian Xiu'er said with a water cup and said to Lian Zhi'er, "Zhi'er, you haven't boiled water over there, I'll give you a glass of milk." ”
"Auntie, just now my mother specially boiled a pot of hot water for my grandmother, and it was warmed on the stove in the outhouse." Lian Man'er stepped forward and took the cup from Lian Xiu'er's hand, "Auntie, you are not used to working, but when you go to the room, my eldest aunt, second uncle, sister-in-law, and sister-in-law Xiu'e are all here, and the milk needs to drink water, and it is not when you want it when you want it." Auntie, you must not have gone to the ground yet, so I don't know. "I'll pour you some water."
There are a lot of sons, daughters-in-law, grandsons and daughters-in-law who are not separated from each other in the upper room, but Lian Xiu'er asks Lian Zhi'er to give her a glass of water, where is the face of Xia Lian Zhi'er, it is clearly the face of the Xia Gu family, the Jiang family and the He family. And she herself is so good at hands and feet, can't she boil a pot of water?
As Lian Man'er spoke, she went out and poured a cup of hot water and handed it to Lian Xiu'er again.
Lian Xiu'er wanted to drain Lian Zhi'er, but she was beaten by Lian Man'er, she was angry but had nowhere to vent, and her face became more and more ugly.
Wu Yugui and Wang both got up to say goodbye.
"It's rare that you still come to see me,...... I had no taste in my mouth for the past two days, and I couldn't eat anything, so I thought about eating the pimple soup made by the bowl of branches, and the pimple soup made by the branches had a good effect on my spleen and stomach. Today, the branches are married, so forget it. Zhou said suddenly.
"Second aunt, I am also good at making pimple soup, and the storage is no worse than that of Zhi'er. The second aunt wants to eat, so I'll do it. Wang said with a smile.
Originally, it was to embarrass Lian Zhi'er and make her lose face in front of her future husband's family. A girl who has no face in her mother's house, when she arrives at her husband's house in the future, people will naturally look down on her. Unexpectedly, Lian Zhi'er's future mother-in-law took the call, didn't the mother-in-law always want to trample her daughter-in-law under her feet, how could this Wang family stand up for Lian Zhi'er.
Zhou was surprised.
"Zhi'er, come, let's do it together." Wang smiled and pulled Lian Zhi'er, and walked out.
The big guy naturally took this opportunity and also retreated from the house.
When the Wang family came out, he really wanted to hold firewood, brush the pot, and make pimple soup for the Zhou family. Even the old man came over, was taken aback, and after asking the reason, he immediately smoked!!.
