Chapter Twenty-Eight: One in a Thousand Miles and One Wife in a Thousand Miles

Seeing that his parents didn't say anything, Zhang Feng knew that he had passed the test in a fool's way, so he unconsciously wiped the sweat on his forehead with his hand and said, this is tired.

Zhang's mother said: "Why are you still sweating?" I just scared you, and I didn't really want to hit you, go wash your face, it's okay. ”

Zhang Feng said in his heart, why is there anything else? I'm done with it, but I don't dare to blow up the thorns, so I washed my face and sat down in the chair again.

"Tell me, what's the matter with you and that girl from the Lu family? I heard Lao Lu's younger brother and the girl's uncle say that you bluffed the girl from his brother's family. Zhang's mother said suddenly.

"What can I do with her? I'm not a minor. ”

"The fart is a minor, Zhang Guang in the west of our village is only 15 this year, and it is estimated that he will be a father next year." Zhang Mu said.

Zhang Feng knew that in the early and mid-90s of his previous life, junior and senior high school students in the vast rural areas of China were engaged to marry at least 60 percent of all junior high school students.

In the third year of high school, there is no one in ten who is not engaged. In his previous life, Zhang Feng has been meeting girls under the introduction of matchmakers since the third year of junior high school, and the meetings are divided into "small see" and "big see".

'Xiao Jian' is that the matchmaker sets a location, and the boy and the girl look at each other from a distance of more than ten meters.

If both the boy and the girl have a good first impression of each other, the matchmaker will find a place for the boy and girl to sit together and talk alone, which is the "big view". "Omi" is also called "changing handkerchiefs".

Boys and girls swap their handkerchiefs, and this handkerchief is a token of love between the two parties.

Of course, the boys had to wrap some money in their handkerchiefs and give them to the girls. At this time, the money for the package does not need to be too much, just a few hundred yuan. At this time, as long as the handkerchief is changed, it means that the boy and the girl have initially agreed, that is, the 'fixed medium'.

The next step is for the man's family and the woman's family to inquire about each other's family situation. Including all aspects that I always think about and can't remember.

After waiting for a period of time when both parties have no opinions, it is time to get engaged under the arrangement of the matchmaker. Of course, if there are opinions, girls generally have opinions, and most boys only have the right to be chosen.

Betrothal is when the parents of the boy and the girl are witnessed by the matchmaker. The man gives the woman a bride price. The woman accepted the bride price, and the marriage was basically decided.

In some cases, this set of procedures can go down and be more effective than a marriage certificate. These conventions sometimes work much more than the law.

After the parties have been engaged for a certain period of time, the engagement period is in the presence of the matchmaker.

Of course, there are many or few bride prices, and in the previous life, the price of that piece of Zhangcun was the most 10,000 yuan or 10,000 yuan and 7 yuan. In general, the man gives the woman one of these two numbers.

This is also easy to understand: 10,000 and 1 yuan means that the woman's excellence is one in a million.

And 10,000 and 7 yuan means that the man picked out his wife out of 10,000 good girls.

The implication is good, but there is too much money. Although the word '10,000 households' was not hot at that time, it was not small.

Therefore, it is understandable that there are many singles in the vast rural areas, and the man's family cannot afford the bride price.

And Zhang Feng's goods were even more tragic in his previous life, and there were a lot of 'small views' of this goods, but there was no news after Xiao Jian.

Later, different matchmakers said that other girls thought he was black. I think he's low.

During that time, Zhang Muzhi was worried that her eldest son would beat a bachelor.

It wasn't until Zhang Feng brought his wife home from his previous life that she was relieved.

It is said that a boy can take a girl home from the outside is a face-saving thing for the boy's parents, not only with face, but also with the inside.

Because even the bride price is saved for self-talk. Talking about yourself.

The girl also understands that the bride price is also spent by two people after marriage, and if you don't want it, you can leave a good impression on the future in-laws. Zhang Feng's wife in his previous life also didn't ask for a penny of bride price, so Zhang Feng married her home.

When was the word "puppy love" intended for boys and girls in big cities, anyway, in the previous life, Zhang Feng's parents never said it in front of Zhang Feng.

Zhang Feng remembered that in his previous life, he said to Zhang's father and Zhang's mother on the first night of his high school in Dongxing: "Dad, Mom, don't worry, your black child, I will be admitted to college in three years of high school, I dare not guarantee you, but when your son graduates from high school, he will definitely bring back a girl who is taller than me and has white skin to be your daughter-in-law." ”

In his previous life, Zhang Feng did it, and in his previous life, when Zhang Feng brought his wife back from his previous life, half of the people in the village came to Zhang Feng's house to watch the excitement.

They all shouted, "Go and see, that black boy in our village has brought back a Bai Ni!" More than 20 years have passed in the previous life, and Zhang Feng and his wife are still embarrassed when they think of this incident.

So when Zhang Feng heard his mother ask about it, he was not afraid, and knew that he was not to blame for his early love.

Zhang Feng said naturally: "I really have nothing to do with her, she may be a little hazy and have a good impression of me." ”

"I guess it's also because she has little contact with people in Wuqi, and when she broadens her horizons in the future, when she thinks of me again, she may just smile."

"No, I heard her uncle say that she will open a clinic in Dongxing with you in the future." Zhang's father said.

Zhang Feng said: "Their town health center can't pay her salary, and besides, she may also want to go out to see the outside world, and people are going to partner with me to open a clinic, not to be my wife." ”

"You stinky boy, do you know what it means for an unmarried girl to agree to go out with your half-grown child to open a clinic?" Zhang Mu said.

"What can it mean, she should think that I am more honest and will not do anything to her, don't you worry, don't you believe in your son's character? I live at school at night and don't do anything to her. ”

"I said Da'er, is that girl pretty, I heard her say that she is one and a half years older than you, how tall is she, and her skin is white?"

"Oops! Mom, she's not your daughter-in-law, why do you this? ”

"That girl's uncle also told me, he said that his brother is going to give his girl 2,000 yuan to let her go to Dongxing to open a clinic with you, and he also said that he will take his niece for his mother and me to see." It was Zhang's father who said on the side.

Father Zhang said in his heart, I suspect that the two brothers are here to talk to me about this this time. What kind of animals are they selling at this time? The timing is clearly wrong.

Father Zhang said again: "Feng'er, what do you think?" You have also seen other people's girls, you should also know what she is like, her uncle said before leaving, when I meet the girl with your mother, if I have no opinion with my mother, his brother said let you get married. ”

Zhang's father took a sip of water and said, "His uncle also said that you have opened a clinic in Dongxing, and young men and women have been together for a long time, and it is difficult to guarantee that nothing will happen." ”

"Although in the new society now, it's nothing if something really happens, at most let your mother and I make a big bed in a room for you, and then set a few tables of wine."

"But it's not good-looking, but it's a certainty. And it would be much better to get engaged first, and his uncle also said that when I got engaged, just let me set the table and drink, and I don't want our family to pay a bride price. I didn't know what you thought, so I didn't dare to say yes to him. ”

"But that girl really wants to open a clinic with you in Dongxing in the future, and her family's request is very reasonable." Zhang's father continued.

Zhang Feng said in his heart, this time the play is real, I said that when I was in Luzhuang, the people in her village said that I was a 'guest' of their family, and Lu's mother did not refute it.

Mother Zhang saw that Zhang Feng didn't speak and said, "Isn't that girl's long mile bad, won't she be darker than you, right?" The main thing is to see how the character is. ”

Zhang Feng was made to cry and laugh by his mother's words, and hurriedly said: "Mom, what are you talking about, I haven't found a girl more beautiful than her son." ”

"Then what are you hesitating about?" Zhang's father asked.

"The main thing is that I don't think your son is worthy of her, she is too beautiful, and she is still a 'commercial grain' and an 'iron rice bowl'. Anyway, you'll know when you see each other later. Don't wait for her to regret it after we get engaged, then our family is even more ashamed, isn't it? ”

"'Commercial grain'" Zhang's father and Zhang's mother said in unison, looked at each other, and were speechless.

"Dad, Mom, this is the case, it doesn't matter if it's fate, it's your daughter-in-law who can't run away, if they have to decide, then decide." Zhang Feng said.

"That's all it can be." Zhang Feng saw that his parents had nothing to do to judge him again, so he immediately left and went back to the house to sleep.
