Chapter 19: Not Marrying
Today's weekend, there is a plus, friends recommend more collections!
*
In the hall, the Guo family's father, son, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are all there.
Guo Shouye and his wife are teaching their son and daughter-in-law.
This started from the fact that he said to the Jiang family before that he would take 20 acres of land to Qingmu as a dowry.
After Aunt Jiang left, Cai couldn't help but ask: "Father, mother, do you really want to marry your little sister twenty acres of land?" ”
She still refused to believe her father-in-law's words.
When I was married to the Zhang family before, my in-laws never made such a promise.
No matter how much I hurt my sister-in-law, she is a daughter in the end.
Daughters are not allowed to divide the land.
What's more, the Guo family seems to have a lot of fields, but the three sons, at present, there are already two grandsons in the big house alone, as well as two rooms and three rooms, and a bunch of grandchildren will divide the fields in the future, it is difficult to say whether it is enough or not, where is there anyone who marries his daughter!
The Cai family didn't believe it when they died, and the Guo brothers could agree to this.
So, she didn't hesitate to come forward first.
Guo Shouye's face sank, but he didn't speak.
Ruan glanced at Cai sympathetically and lowered his head.
Wu asked Cai, "You don't agree?" ”
Cai sneered: "What is my sister-in-law a daughter......
Guo Daquan felt bad, so he was about to speak, but the old lady spoke again.
Wu didn't wait for Cai to finish speaking and asked Ruan: "Second daughter-in-law, what do you say?" ”
Ruan's was named, and he couldn't hide, so he had to say: "The family business is earned by my father and mother, and my father and mother are elders. If the mother wants to find someone to discuss, she will discuss with the eldest brother and sister-in-law and Qiao'er and his father; Ask the daughter-in-law, the daughter-in-law is a person who has no idea, and she can't say anything good. ”
Guo Dayou smiled silently.
Guo Daquan glanced at Cai's sideways and thought to himself, "It's all daughters-in-law, look at what people say!" ”
Wu said, "What's wrong with my daughter?" Didn't I conceive my daughter in October? Eldest daughter-in-law, you have been married to my Guo family for more than ten years. You see: Qingmu has been learning to weave brocade since he was seven or eight years old, and it sounds good that I feel sorry for my daughter with your father, but in fact, she doesn't do anything! ”
She waved her arms angrily, and turned to Guo Daquan as she spoke, "You three brothers, there is only one sister in the total, how many acres of land can you accompany her?" What did my father and I teach you in the past? Even a cow has been taught! I said, "People can't just look at the front of the eye, but look at the long term." Qingmu will eventually get married, and marrying a good family will also support his mother's brother and sister-in-law and nephew in the future. You have also seen this Jiang family, it is a good family, and the baby is also promising. In the future, your sister-in-law and sister-in-law will be developed, and you will still be able to forget you? Divide the girls so clearly! Don't say it's dumb, even Qiao'er will marry in the future. ”
Chua's qualifications are limited and he cannot understand the deep meaning from Nguyen's words.
She saw that her mother-in-law had changed her rhetoric again, but she asked her brother to take care of her sister, and she was very angry.
She looked at her husband and the two uncles to see what they had to say.
Guo Daquan smiled and said, "Mother, don't be angry. What kind of personality does the daughter-in-law have, you still don't know? She's a mouth! Dad said to accompany the little sister with twenty acres of land, which is due. Even if Dad doesn't say it, I'm going to mention it. As he spoke, he turned to Guo Dayou, "Dayou, are you right?" ”
Guo Da nodded and said, "Yes." The Jiang family also has three sons, marries three daughters-in-law, and a large family, our mother's family is tougher, and there are more marriages, and people will not dare to bully our little sister in the future......"
Guo Daquan didn't wait for him to finish, he patted his leg and said, "That's what I mean!" ”
When Wu saw his two sons say this, he calmed down a lot.
Yin explained: "I don't look at the old woman Jiang like a good stubble today, I can't get used to her." If it weren't for her son, I wouldn't want to get married. As the old saying goes, it's hard to think things go your way. Your father's meaning is also to help Qing dumb waist. ”
All three brothers nodded in unison.
Guo Dagui even said: "Accompany my little sister more, and give her mine." I am a man, I will earn my own money, and I will slowly save up my family business in the future. ”
Everyone knew that he was young and warm-hearted, but they didn't know that the world was difficult, so they didn't take what he said seriously.
Only Cai was dumbfounded.
In short, she offended her in-laws again today.
"It's not a matter of dowry."
Just when everyone thought it was okay, Guo Shouye spoke.
"Boss, when you were ten years old, how many fields did our family have?" He asked his eldest son.
"One hundred acres." Guo Daquan replied quickly, which shows that he has a deep memory.
"I want you to remember: brothers and sisters in a family, the most important thing is to be united." Guo Shouye said "you" in his mouth, but stared at his eldest son sternly, "With one heart, one hundred acres of land can become one hundred and fifty acres, and there is hope for two hundred acres and three hundred acres in the future; The heart is not aligned, thinking about the little thing in the pot all day long, the brothers and concubines are calculating like thieves, and the nest is reversed, no matter how much family business can be lost, a hundred acres will become eighty acres or fifty acres. What's the use of calculating! ”
The three brothers stood up together.
Guo Daquan was ashamed and said: "It's still what my father said." ”
He is just filial piety and his own siblings, but his father has said a big truth.
Dad also revealed a layer of meaning: blame him for not disciplining his daughter-in-law!
Guo Shouye nodded, and said to Cai's again: "Eldest daughter-in-law, don't be reluctant, in the future, the diligent baby, the thrifty baby, and my unborn grandchildren will live better than now." As long as you are united, our Guo family has a lot of these twenty acres of land! ”
Cai Shi said uneasily: "Dad, my daughter-in-law knows. ”
At this moment, Qing Dumb walked downstairs.
"Dad, mother." She stood still for a moment before asking, "The man in the morning...... Come to propose? ”
Wu Shi was stunned for a moment, nodded and said, "Yes, dumb." Come, my mother will tell you, the Jiang family ......"
Without waiting for her to finish, she said dumbly: "I won't marry!" ”
She looked at the family fixedly, looking a little lonely.
No matter how much I hurt her, it is still different from my previous life.
The major event of his life, he didn't even tell her, and it was decided.
This is a model of "parental order"!
The reason why she said "not to marry" instead of "unwilling" is different. She thought she was still young and was studying brocade, so she didn't want to think about marriage for the time being. And she doesn't think she's going to fall in love with anyone, and she doesn't want to marry blindly and dumbly.
But when these words were heard in the ears of the Guo family, they were strict.
There are few dumb words, and her family understands her for speaking hard, and rarely interrogates her to the bottom of it, and over time she has developed a habit: she said her, and everyone listened to their own imagination and play freely.
This situation is even more obvious after Qingya becomes dumb.
Because she was used to being quiet in her previous life, she really cherished words like gold.
For example, in front of them, Guo Shouye and others were stunned.
Guo Daquan's face was ugly.
He felt that his sister must have been sad because she heard her daughter-in-law's words, so she didn't want to marry.
At that moment, he said to Guo Shouye and his wife: "Dad, mother, my daughter-in-law and I will peel cottonseeds." ”
After speaking, he glanced at Cai Shi and went out first.
Although Cai was inexplicable, he consciously followed behind the man.
Guo Dayou and Ruan glanced at each other and went out.
Guo Dagui naturally went out with him.
After his son and daughter-in-law left, Wu got up from the hall and walked to a bamboo chair under the hall to sit down, so that he was more comfortable. He beckoned Qingmu and moved a small bench to sit beside him, and then took her hand and asked, "Okay, how can you say that you won't get married?" ”
Dumb and silent.
What did she tell them?
Can you explain the difference in concept?
Guo Shouye also walked to the threshold silently, sat down on a small bench, and watched the big yellow dogs and chickens strolling around in front of the door, seemingly leisurely, but his ears were propped up, listening to the old woman and the girl talking.
Wu Shi was dumbfounded for a while, and then said: "Mother knows that you have the ability now, and your heart is also high. But our Zhuang family doesn't recognize those rich and noble families. Even if you know it, do you know who is good? Mother and your father thought: I can't marry you too poor, and life is not easy when you are poor; can't climb rich people, rich people don't count other people's daughters like us; To be like our family, we have some family backgrounds and live comfortably. ”
It turned out that she thought that after meeting the "immortals", her vision was high, and she couldn't look down on the countryside.
Shaking her head dumbly, she didn't want to marry a rich family.
Wu continued to persuade: "This Jiang family said that they were croppers, and Jiang Minghui had studied for a few years, and now he opened a shop in the town. The one you saw him that day was the one who sold you a fan. My mother sees that he is not bad, looks good, and knows how to read and etiquette. The farmer's family is a baby, and the heart is real and reliable. In the future, when you get married, your family will give you 20 acres of land to marry, and you will rent it to others to plant, and you will only collect rent. You live in the town with him, you sell brocade, he opens a shop, and his life is not better than marrying Zhang Futian? It's more comfortable than those rich and noble. ”
She painted a beautiful picture of her future life to Qingdu.
Although she was moved to think thoughtfully, she was a little unimpressed.
There are many rich and noble people who are ruthless and righteous, and there are many poor people who forget their righteousness when they see profit, and there is no absolute.
She shook her head and explained, "I'm still young, so I won't marry yet." ”
Wu said: "Still young? It's not small. The girl can't afford to delay, and she won't be able to marry a good family when she grows up. I won't be in a hurry with your third brother, as long as I have money, it's okay to marry a daughter-in-law a few years later. ”
Qing was silent for a while, and then said, "Then don't marry." ”
Wu was even more surprised when he heard this, and hurriedly looked outside.
Seeing that there was no one, he lowered his voice and said to Qinghu: "How can you not marry!" My mother loves you, your father loves you, and your brother loves you, but my mother's family is my mother's family, and my daughter always wants to get married. If you don't get married, your mother and your father will be fine, and one day they will stretch their legs and leave, and your brother and sister-in-law will always dislike you, and they will be unreliable......"
Qing was stunned to hear it.
She could see that Wu was telling her heartfelt words, and he was by no means disgusting her.
Here, unlike in the previous life, you can't get married.
She couldn't help but think about reality.
"I'm going to the Jiang family to have a look." She quickly made a decision.
Since she can't marry without marrying, and she can't marry late, she has to choose her husband herself.
Only when I went to Jiang's house to see the character and family style could I determine whether to accept or reject this family.
Wu asked in surprise, "You didn't watch it that day?" ”
Qing looked at her inexplicably, "Which day?" ”
Wu suddenly remembered that she went to the town on a blind date that day to hide from her daughter, and she didn't pay attention to Jiang Minghui at all. This made her very happy, and she felt that her daughter was her duty, unlike Li Hongjube.
"Go! I'm going to go to Jiang's house too. Guo Shouye spoke.
"Just go!" Wu saw that the girl was reasonable, and the old man agreed, so he agreed, "Then the old woman Jiang asked three questions and four questions today, and saw our house inside and out, why can't I go to Jiang's house to see?" If it's not good, don't say yes. Save it again, like the Zhang family, and have an accident. Ming'er will ask your sister-in-law to go back to her parents' house and tell the Jiang family, we have to go to the door to see each other. ”
looked at her gratefully, such a father and mother are rare.
After this matter was decided, Qingdue went back to the room and took a picture and went to find the second brother.
There was a large pile of white-flowered seed cotton in the west wing hall, and Guo Dayou and Ruan Shi were sitting there peeling cotton seeds. Seeing that Qingmu took the picture, he asked, "What are you doing here?" ”
Dumb said: "Put the piano." ”
In her room, the dressing table is too high, and other tables and low tables are not suitable for the guqin. Later, it was Guo Dayou who moved a long table case for Ruan's marriage to the upstairs to solve the problem of playing the piano in a dud. Qingdu, so he thought about asking him to help make a piano case, so that the table could be returned to the second sister-in-law.
Guo Dayou smiled after seeing it: "Okay, the second brother will find some materials." ”
After speaking, he got up and glanced at Ruan.
Ruan Shi hurriedly brought a small chair, pulled out the dumb and sat down, "Little sister, sit down." ”
Qing Du sat down, watching Ruan Shi struggling to pull cotton wool and peel cotton seeds, and couldn't help but be distracted.
There is no Huang Daopo here, or it has not yet appeared.
It's time for her to draw the cotton gin and spinning wheel.
After the fusion of the knowledge of the two worlds, this thing was very vivid in her mind.
It's just that it is good to find a suitable opportunity to seek some benefits for the Guo family.
She had heard the family arguing about her dowry before.
