Chapter 41: Marriage
Although Liu Yue and Liu Fang did not get the support of their father, at least they did not object to it now, and the two sisters decided to pull a cart of goods to other villages in five days.
The vegetables and eggs at home are still sold by the two sisters, and the Zhang family also found an opportunity to test Aunt Li, but she didn't expect Aunt Li to be happy with the marriage of the two families, and the two immediately made a family appointment. Aunt Li pulled Zhang's face full of joy: "Aunt Zhang, don't you know which bastard is in our family, and I don't know how much I like your family?"
But I don't think Wei'er is worthy of Fang'er, so I haven't dared to mention it to you, and it's nothing else. I'm afraid that you will hinder the relationship between the two families, although I am not happy in my heart, I still should deal with this matter, and the relationship between the two families will be far away in the future.
Besides, Li Wei doesn't have any big skills, and he still follows his father as a little follower? On the contrary, the eldest son is out of business, learning to do business with others in the city, and now he has become a small steward, maybe he can become a shopkeeper in the future? The eldest marriage has long been engaged, but the second eldest is not high or low. Today, Aunt Zhang, you are willing to marry Fang'er to our family, I am happy from the bottom of my heart, but I am afraid that I will be wronged Fang'er, but I will definitely do this dowry, but I can't wronged Fang'er.
Fang'er also grew up under my watch, even if she is half a daughter, Aunt Zhang, don't worry, when Fang'er enters our house in the future, I will definitely not let Fang'er be wronged, and I don't treat Fang'er as a daughter-in-law, but only as an extra daughter. Seeing that I go back and tell the second child about this, he must be happy to find the edge, and his father will be happy to drink a few more glasses? ”
Zhang's listened to Aunt Li's promotion of Fang'er, and kept assuring that it would definitely be good for Fang'er, Zhang's heart was finally a lot more relieved, parents don't ask their daughters to marry well, they just want their daughters to marry smoothly, and they don't have to suffer from their mother-in-law's idleness, which is a big deal.
Aunt Li's temperament is known by herself, that is, her mouth is faster, but she is capable of being dry and sharp, and Fang'er will definitely not suffer a loss when she goes to the Li family. Aunt Li and Uncle Li can't treat Fang'er badly because of the relationship between the two families for many years.
Zhang nodded happily: "When Fang'er comes back, I will make it clear to Fang'er, I have to let Fang'er start preparing the dowry earlier, and I can't follow her sister to the wild anymore." Fang'er and his father must be happy when he comes back, his father is afraid that you will not agree, now it's good that both of us are worried about it and think too much. The two talked and laughed for a while, and then went home to get busy.
Aunt Li had to find a good dowry and then find a matchmaker in the village to go to Liu's house to say goodbye, and she also had to talk to Li Wei and his father about how to arrange this matter, but she couldn't be sloppy, otherwise she would slap the Liu family in the face, and this wronged daughter-in-law would be wronged by her own son. Aunt Li went back with a spring breeze on her face, and the Zhang family also happily began to count things, pack up the things she had saved over the years, and bring them over as a companion to Fang'er when the time came.
Liu Fang came back in the evening and knew that Aunt Li and her mother had been engaged, so she just waited for the matchmaker to come to the door, so she ran to her own house in shame. Liu Yue felt relieved, in this life, my sister can live an ordinary life, and her white head will be full of old children and grandchildren. I have to pull a few more truckloads of goods to sell immediately, so that I can give more sisters to marry. No matter how good the relationship between the family and Aunt Li's family is, it is always good to marry more, otherwise in the future, when the days are long, Aunt Li will talk about the dowry one day, and my sister will not be wronged to death.
Liu Yue sat on the edge of the kang, took the steamed buns on the table and nibbled on them, "Mother, Yue'er wants to pull a few more truckloads of goods to earn some silver, so that she can add makeup to her sister." Although Aunt Li's family is close to our family, the mother-in-law of that family doesn't want her daughter-in-law to bring more dowries? So how can there be light on the face? Aunt Li is a good person, but our family can't be too wronged sister. ”
Zhang looked at the sensible Liu Yue and nodded with satisfaction: "It's true, my mother suffered from not marrying back then, so my mother won't let Fang'er be the same as my mother, don't worry!"
Over the years, our family in the village is not too bad, this marriage a few years ago the mother began to save, but some things still have to spend a lot of silver, such as the cabinet bed of the new house, these have to spend silver to buy wood, and then let your father take the time to do it. There are also the bride's clothes and quilts, and the mother has to buy them for Fang'er again. You can rest assured, even if you don't go to sell the goods, your mother will prepare things for your sister. ”
Liu Yue's calculations are not a small expense, it is better to earn some money back by herself, so that her mother can do it more beautifully, and finally let her sister get married, so she has to do it well. Think about the fact that my sister sat in a small pink sedan chair in my previous life, and in this life, I have to let my sister sit in a red sedan chair.
It just so happened that there was no food to sell in the past three days, so Liu Yue decided to take her mother and sister to the city tomorrow, pull a large cart of goods, and go to a few villages farther away to sell them, maybe she can make a good profit?
On the same day, Liu Zhu was very happy to know that the two families got married, and then looked at the big girl with a blushing face on the side, Liu Zhu didn't feel good in his heart, a good girl was about to become someone else's family, but the woman was not left!
Fortunately, it is in this village, you can see it every day, except that you don't live in one house, there will not be much change in the future, Aunt Li also knows the roots, and she will not let Fang'er be wronged. Li Wei also grew up watching himself, although he doesn't have any natural potential now, but he is diligent and willing to work, and he will definitely not starve to death. The two children are also in love, and they are indeed good relatives.
Liu Zhu was happy in his heart, and he was originally very worried that Liu Fang was not a good person because of Mrs. Zhang's matter, but now that he can marry the Li family, is it strange that Liu Zhu is unhappy?
The next day, Zhang made breakfast for the family, steamed a large basket of steamed buns, and took the two daughters to drive the ox cart to the city. The villages that Zhang said are all familiar to Zhang, and there are many girls in the village who have married them, so Zhang is very relieved, and there are acquaintances who at least don't worry about the villagers deliberately causing trouble.
Liu Fang is still a little shy, yesterday's incident made Liu Fang not sleep well all night, thinking that she was about to marry Li Wei, but her heart was empty, although she was happy, she was still a little worried. Over the years, Liu Fang has also heard too much about her parents' shortcomings in takeaway dishes, and she knows that every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, so she is afraid that she will not marry well. Now that she can marry into Aunt Li's family, Liu Fang is still uneasy in her heart, this may be the feeling that every betrothed girl will have!
Looking at the family members who are busy with themselves, even Liu Cheng knows that he is engaged to Li Wei, and congratulates him with a smile.
Thinking about the fact that the village is as big as himself, he said that he was a good family, so he waited for the end of the year to do things, I don't know if Aunt Li's family would be in a hurry to get things done at the end of the year, so that she would no longer be the daughter of the Liu family before the Chinese New Year, but the daughter-in-law of the Li family. Liu Fang hopes to stay at home for a few more years, her sister's business is doing a bit eyebrow-raising, and when she gets married in the future, will Aunt Li let herself do business with her sister again?
But Liu Cheng is going to go to school in the town soon, and he will go to the city in the future, so I heard that he will go to the capital to take the exam? In this way, you can be the top student in high school, how much money does it cost! As soon as I got married, there was one less helper in the family, and I had to rely on my mother and sister for everything, so did my mother's body stand it? My sister is less than ten years old, and she supports the affairs of the family, is it too early?
Zhang followed Liu Yue to buy the goods, and the two were very busy, but they didn't pay attention to Liu Fang, who didn't squeak behind him. Zhang didn't expect Liu Yue to be so capable, not only did the goods he took cheap, and he was very familiar with the bosses of each family, but also everyone trusted Liu Yue and was more willing to give Liu Yue good goods.
And the old man who sells wine doesn't need to deposit money and directly let Liu Yue take the wine, and then settle the bill when it is sold. Zhang's only now re-acquainted with Liu Yue, no wonder Liu Yue said that selling vegetables in recent years is not for nothing, it is true, Yue'er will sell what in the city, which one's goods are of better quality, which one's purchase price is cheap, and she knows it all clearly, and she is really inferior to her daughter.
After buying the goods in the city, the three of them stacked the goods on the ox cart together, and drove to the villages that Zhang said. Sure enough, the business is very good, and the girl who married in the same village specially asked the Zhang family to bring things to her mother's family?
Zhang's smiled and talked with others, not stage fright at all, everyone envied Zhang's talented girl, who dared to pull such a large cart of goods out to sell. Zhang knew that no one in the village would accept his daughter's family to do business, but Zhang felt that his daughter could do business, so what was wrong with being able to do something? At least you don't have to worry about making a living to support your family in the future.
The people in the village know that it is the daughter-in-law of the village who comes to sell the goods, so they are naturally more relieved, which is much more reassuring than the merchant who sells fake goods to deceive people.
Therefore, what is lacking at home will be selected in the stall, which is better than running to the city for a little thing, but the family can't afford to lose it, and the whole family wants to eat and drink, and the field has to be managed. Usually, there are also merchants who come, but they bring too few things, and the price is more expensive.
Therefore, the aunts and aunts in the village, as soon as they inquired about it clearly, they were acquaintances and the price was fair, so they naturally bought things with confidence. Liu Yue and Liu Fang also received them warmly, and they were good-natured and not too troublesome, and they said the same to the people who came to buy things. Zhang's business is good, and he is very happy, no matter what others think, he thinks good is good.
After running to two villages in one day, the goods in the car were sold, and of course there was still a little bit of goods that were not sold, and it was not worth a few dollars. Liu Fang was carefully cleaning up in the car, Liu Yue felt that her sister seemed to be preoccupied today, maybe she was engaged, and she felt a little uncomfortable!
As soon as the sun went west, he returned to the village, and the Zhang family saw the Chen family from afar, and the Chen family hurriedly chose another way to go.
When they got home, Liu Yue and Liu Fang packed up the goods in the car, and Zhang thought that Liu Cheng was about to eat, so he hurriedly went to cook and handed over the rest to the two daughters. As soon as he saw that his mother was going to cook, Liu Cheng, who was reading in the house, dared to come out, licked his smile and said, "Sister, you are going to do business again, is it fun to do business?" ”
