Volume 1 Returning Home After Completion Chapter 23, Lifetime Events
Grandmother Wang Cuishi carefully told the eldest mother and daughter about the several good in-laws she was looking for, all of which were carefully selected from ten miles and eight towns, and Changsheng was moved and sad, I really didn't expect that her age was so old that everyone was afraid of her left.
One is a pig killer and meat seller, Chinese New Year's Eve, the family has two elders, the wife died, leaving only a ten-year-old daughter, there is a house in the town, and there is a meat stall, grandma said that it will hurt people when they are older, although it is to fill the house, who dares to underestimate when they have a son? Not only can you live in the town, but you will also have meat to eat every day in the future.
One is a foot merchant who sells grain, he is 26 years old, his parents died early, and he did not marry a wife because there is no one to sell grain. This Wang Cui's is the most satisfied, the family is good, the age is appropriate, there is no need to serve the in-laws, no need to be a stepmother, marry two bowls and a scoop, directly become the family, and most importantly, he will not be hungry in case of famine.
One is a solid farmer, just twenty-two years old this year, he is an only son in the family, there are 30 acres of land and a cow, a yard of large tiled houses, because the wife can not give birth to let the in-laws to rest, marry not for food and clothing to worry, the male protagonist is a simple farmer, only need to give birth to children and serve the in-laws.
"Changsheng, these are all asked by my grandmother from ten miles and eight villages, the age is not very old, and you don't have to worry about food and clothing, you are really not young, and you dare not delay any longer. Don't worry, your grandmother is not an old-fashioned person, you can pick all three people! ”
Changsheng couldn't cry or laugh, she really didn't expect that in the eyes of others, she was a leftover girl who had been a palace slave, and she could marry into these three random families, all of which burned high incense, but she would never marry into such a family in this life.
It's not that she doesn't want to get married, she returned to her hometown just to find a lover to marry and live a good life. In his previous life, he had a first love in college, and with the disappearance of graduation, he didn't know the taste of love in this life. She knows that it is impossible to have a good relationship in this world, but she must at least marry a lovely person, although there is no exact standard for the word "heart", and she has no fixed concept in her heart, but it is by no means what her grandmother said.
I can't imagine living with an oily pig killer or a grain seller who carries a burden in the wind and rain, or a farmer who works day in the field to give birth to children, raise pigs and feed chickens. If you really want to think about it, none of these people's conditions can match Gao Shouren, she can give him up, where is she willing to marry these people?
In her previous life, she was a high-achieving student who graduated from the Chinese Department, and has been living in a big city, although she has crossed into a palace maid, these eight years have also been spent in the gorgeous and extravagant Tang **, she cannot marry a coarse person who does not know big words, all her life is like a mother's mother, she opens her eyes every day to cook, wash, raise pigs, feed chickens and take children, she does not want to waste her youth, let alone wronged herself.
But in the face of grandma's kindness, he couldn't refuse clearly, so he could only drag it first. She put on a pair of golden earrings for Wang Cui's hand, and said with a touched face: "Grandma still loves me and breaks her heart for me." However, Changsheng has been away from his grandmother and mother for eight years, and he still wants to be a good granddaughter of his grandmother and a good daughter of his mother, so he is really reluctant to marry into someone else's family! ”
Although Wang Cui's is old, he is not easy to fool. "Silly boy, what are you talking about, if you are married, you are not my good granddaughter and your mother's good daughter? Knowing that I broke my heart for you, it is only right to quickly pick a household and settle down! ”
Zhou Wang's family saw the reluctance on Changsheng's face, and hurriedly relieved the siege: "Mother, don't worry, what a good child we have in Changsheng, and you can't get married?" In the past few days, there are a lot of people who are courting relatives, and the conditions are better than the other. Wang Cui's family gave up.
After chattering for a day, Wang Cui's family was bent on staying for a few days, but Zhou Wang's family saw that his daughter didn't want to stay at all, so he coaxed his mother to say that he would hurry back to make a dowry, in case he found a suitable person who was afraid that he would not have time to prepare, but his mother was beaten down, complaining that she didn't listen to her own words and didn't prepare a dowry for Changsheng earlier.
After complaining, she still let the mother and daughter go back, in her opinion, preparing the dowry is a big deal, there is not much time to delay in longevity, and if you can't get the dowry in the future, you will be despised by your in-laws.
Along the way, Changsheng had a bitter face, and his good mood was ruined. Although the Zhou family has a mother, but they can not protect it for a while, no one is willing to support their daughter, she should find a home at this age, but she is at a loss, who is worthy of her life?
Suddenly uncomfortable in her heart, she worked hard to return home, it turned out that she also had the trouble of going home, if she was not satisfied, it was better not to marry, Changsheng made up her mind to be familiar with it for a year and a half, and wait until she was fully able to adapt to the life of her hometown, and was willing to live here for a lifetime before talking about marriage.
"Changsheng, what's the matter? Don't blame grandma, she is really good for you. Don't worry, my mother knows in my heart, the people she picked look good, but they are all rough people, my mother feels that she is not worthy of you, don't worry, let's pick slowly, we must pick a satisfactory one for you! ”
"Can my mother promise me not to drive me out of marriage first? I really want to live in my own house for a while, I really don't want to leave my mother so soon! For now, she can only seek her mother's help temporarily.
Zhou Wang's heart immediately softened: "Okay, good good, poor immortal, my mother promises you." However, if the conditions are really good, it is better to set up a family affair first, and then get married later, don't miss a good marriage, your mother can't keep you for a lifetime! ”
Changsheng nodded, as long as he dragged it first, and then made plans later.
Wang Chunfa, who was driving the car outside, said angrily: "Sister, you are confused, what kind of person are you hired, why don't you ask what Changsheng means?" She's not a child, so let's ask her what she thinks first! ”
Zhou Wangshi patted his head again and again, and said regretfully: "I am in a hurry these days, and I ask someone to find Changsheng's in-law every day, but I only ignore the meaning of Changsheng. You're right, although your own choice is not in line with etiquette, but marrying someone is a lifelong thing, and you can't be sloppy, so you won't talk about those false etiquette! ”
Turning around, he asked his daughter with a loving face: "Tell my mother, what kind of one do you want to find?" The mother will do everything possible to make your wish come true! ”
Having said that, there is nothing to be ashamed of, instead of being nagged all day long to choose a husband's family, it is better to mention her own conditions, it is her fate to find such a person, and she can't find her just to have a reason to stay single.
Changsheng wanted to make a shy appearance, but after thinking about it, forget it, it's too contrived, it's not a little girl in the end. smiled mischievously: "Mother, how did you say your daughter was born?" ”
"This child, of course my parents were born well, otherwise he would not have been elected to the palace that year. But you can't take this too seriously for men, it's really good! ”
As soon as he said a word, he was seen through his thoughts, and Changsheng burst out laughing: "How can I have a daughter?" I mean, although a man's appearance is not important, but he is born from the heart, at least he should look pleasing to the eye, be of the same age, be healthy, and have a good character. ”
"This is natural, whoever marries a girl must also find such a person. You can rest assured, my mother will find someone for you according to these standards. ”
"No, mother, this is just the basics, I haven't finished talking yet. Although my daughter is a slave in the palace, she also has the opportunity to read and write because of the kindness of her master, so I must find someone who can read and write. Also, the daughter doesn't want to work hard all her life, she wants to marry someone with a good family background and someone to serve, and she has to be wholeheartedly devoted to her daughter. Only if I meet these conditions will I be willing to marry. If the man can really meet my conditions, it doesn't hurt to be a stepmother, and the life is two. ”
Seeing Zhou Wang's eyes widen in surprise, Changsheng held Xiao Shuangxi and looked at her innocently and blankly, as if he didn't know what he said, but his heart was already happy, how could this condition she put forward be achieved?
