After a while, she brought in a zucchini and said with a smile, "This zucchini must be eaten quickly, otherwise it will be old." "I knew she was really doing it for my good, so I didn't say no.

Lin Cailian and I worked together, she rubbed the zucchini into thin strips and chopped them, added salt and drained water, put a little green onion and peppercorn noodles and a little bit of oil residue, she and the filling, I mixed cornmeal and a small amount of flour and rolled it into a thin skin. Lin Cailian is a person who is not good at words, and she is a very gentle person who speaks softly.

"You don't always have to fight against your mother's family, when you get married in the future, if your husband's family knows that you care about your mother's family, and knows that you have no backstage, they won't let you fight when they fight."

I laughed and said, "I'm not thinking about getting married right now." In fact, sometimes I think that even if I haven't married anyone in my life, it's not a big deal. Is it true that all the men in the world are good? I haven't seen a few good men in my village... Except for my brother. Don't worry, my brother really likes you. ”

Lin Cailian didn't expect me to say this, she was stunned for a moment, and her face added some blush: "You're right, but in our countryside, if a woman is more than twenty years old and hasn't married, she will be gossiped." ”

"Just say it, there's a lot to say now anyway."

Lin Cailian nodded: "You have read books, you are more knowledgeable than me, and you will definitely be able to marry a good man and be happy in the future." ”

I feel very depressed, does a woman have to rely on a man to be happy? I lived again, was it just to find a man to marry? I wanted to say a few words to her, but I knew that she was really good to me, so I could only smile and didn't speak again.

It was quickly cooked. She fished it out first and gave me a big bowl of hot food, and she accompanied me, and only ate a few symbolically, probably after dinner.

The two of us sat at a small table to eat. Because she wants to save electricity, she uses kerosene lamps like my family, and the lights are dim.

But I still feel bright when I eat the fragrant copying hands.

When she was cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, Lin Cailian suddenly smiled and said, "Song Dong has been inquiring about you recently, do you know about this?" ”

I was stunned: "What is he asking me for?" ”

"yes. My mother's family is a little related to him, and when my parents came that day, by the way, Song Dong wanted his mother to find someone to come to your house to propose marriage, but his mother didn't respond, didn't say yes, and didn't say no. ”

I didn't speak, I didn't have many opportunities to contact Song Dong in my previous life, but I heard that his mother was bent on finding a rich daughter-in-law to help her shine on the lintel, probably because she was dissatisfied with my family background.

Lin Cailian looked at me and said, "It seems that you don't like him, right?" Then I'll help you pass on a message when you go back, so that he won't be talking about you, and everyone will talk about you again when the time comes. If there are more men involved with you, you should not be able to marry. ”

I smiled: "Well, you can help me talk about it, I don't want to find a partner for the time being." "Although this Lin Cailian is a good person, all she thinks about is relying on men, and I really can't agree with her.

Lin Cailian cleaned up, washed up briefly with me, and then slept on a kang.

The kang was warm, the futon was very soft, and there was a faint smell of sunlight on it, and I soon fell asleep.

Early the next morning, we were woken up by the sound of firecrackers, which were set off by Liu Cui's house, and the wedding ceremony was about to begin. I combed my hair and washed my face in a panic, and Lin Cailian kept praising the shirt I was wearing.

"It's so pretty!"

"Sister Cailian, if you like it, I will give it to you after attending the wedding." I said with a smile.

Lin Cailian shook her head: "I'm a widow, and I'm laughed at for wearing such clothes." But you look good on top, and the pants down are a little old and not very good, you wait a minute, I have a skirt. She hurried to the cupboard, found a long dress, and handed it to me. Black, there are some plain flower patterns in the corners, and the material is light and soft, but it matches the red shirt.

I took it and said in surprise, "Why don't you wear such a beautiful dress?!" ”

"This dress was actually given to me by your eldest brother, but I never dared to wear it. That's right, you'll wear it today. ”

I excused myself for a while, but Cailian forced me to change them and gave me a pair of light white shoes. I dressed up and looked in the mirror, and my heart was filled with joy.

I grinned and took her hand: "These shoes were also given to you by the eldest brother?" ”

Lin Cailian nodded: "Well, his money is paid to your mother to pay off the debt, in order to buy these things for me, he doesn't eat breakfast when he works outside, and he manages the money that others want." The thought of him being so nice to me made me feel ......" Her voice choked a little.

I didn't expect that the eldest brother, who was honest in appearance and spoke little, could be so affectionate. And in my previous life, because of my big fuss, the two of them couldn't be combined, and when I thought of this, I hated to give myself two mouths.

At this time, Lin Cailian warmed up the leftover hands from last night, and urged me to hurry up and eat and go out: "You are a maidess, don't be late." ”

"Then I won't eat it."

"No! The bridesmaid wants to persuade her to drink, so she may not eat. You have to eat, or you won't be able to hold on. ”

I had to eat a little bit and then came out of her house.

Although Cailian is also from a village, she is a widow, and according to folk customs, widows and pregnant women are not allowed to attend this occasion. So she just asked me to take a piece of cloth as a gift.

"You come back early, be careful that people pour you wine." She said with a smile.

I nodded and walked out. Although she is not officially married to her eldest brother, she is already my legitimate sister-in-law in my heart.

The front of Liu Cui's house was very lively at this time, there were two big happy words pasted on the door, many children were laughing at the door, holding melon seeds and candy in their hands, and many villagers were all in and out, with joy on their faces.

The eldest girl and the little daughter-in-law all wore their best clothes and laughed together.

A young man ran and took out a long red cannonball, standing tall in the doorway, and the other man held a cigarette and lit it, and I covered my ears with everyone, and the crackling sound of firecrackers made everyone even more excited. I walked into the yard and a brand new Phineas bicycle was parked in front of the door with big red happy words on it. After a while, the groom will ride another bicycle to pick up the kiss.

"Qiao'er, are you here? Hurry up and come in! Liu Cui smiled and opened the door.

She was dressed in a very beautiful pink dress, her black hair was coiled up, and some red silk flowers were pinned to it, and her face was painted with heavy makeup, and her ears and neck were all covered with shiny fake jewelry, which was the most fashionable dress at that time.

There were already many people in the house, all of whom were relatives of her family. Affectionate chats together. Liu Cui grabbed me, looked me up and down, and smiled in surprise: "It's really beautiful!" I'm going to be in the limelight with you today. ”

"What do you say, you're the bride, you're the best-looking."

Liu Cui smiled and said, "But in the eyes of some people, you are better looking than me." You know who I said no? ”

I blushed, and I probably knew who it was. This Song Dong is really enough, I have only met you twice, and you already hate to let the whole village know that you like me?

"Seriously, you and Song Dong are quite suitable, and he cares about you very much, don't you consider marrying him? It's just right to seal the mouth of Sun E's dead mother-in-law. ”

Liu Cui was ridiculed by Sun E because she was fat since she was a child, and when she saw her eating, she said that she would not be able to get married if she was eating, Liu Cui hated her, so she always resented her.

I smiled and nudged her: "Because I'm married, I hate to sell everyone you know?" ”

Liu Cui said two more gossips to me, and her mother came over with a bowl of noodles, this is an old custom, before getting married, you have to eat a bowl of noodles from your mother's family in order to be happy and safe, she took chopsticks, and only ate a few bites before sobbing and crying.

"Mom, can I still eat your cooking in the future?"

In a hurry, her mother pinched her arm: "Why are you crying, don't cry, this is unlucky!" She cried as she spoke.

I hurriedly persuaded on the side: "Don't cry, the makeup on your face is all gone." ”

When Liu Cui heard this, she hurriedly took a look at the mirror, wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and said while crying: "This makeup is humanized by a photo studio in the city, who will make it for me if there is a problem, Mom, you are all making trouble." ”

Her mother sighed: "You dead girl, you are married and you still vomit me." ”

I pursed my lips and smiled, and said in my heart, she still loves stinky beauty so much.

At this time, there was another noise outside, it was her husband Wang Hu who came to pick up someone, he was wearing a suit, a chubby figure, with a simple smile on his face, and a face of joy with a plastic fake flower in his hand. Last time, Liu Cui didn't make a fuss because he didn't want to spend money, but it seems that she has solved it.

Behind him is Song Dong, he is also dressed in good spirits today, with a white shirt and black pants, black leather shoes, and he began to look everywhere as soon as he entered the door. Then my eyes fixed on me, and my eyes were full of surprise, and I turned my head and pretended not to see me.

Everyone began to make trouble with the newcomers, scattering colored paper flowers, and the two happily rode their bicycles out for a ride, and then came back.

Wang Hu's family is in the town, but he doesn't have any relatives, so he set up a banquet in the open space in Liu Cui's village.

For the villagers who are not wealthy, it is a rare day to satisfy their hunger, and all the people who help the old and the young are here. Someone sat on the edge of the venue and kept track of the amount of money.

I saw from afar that the second brother and his mother came together, he was wearing a new set of clothes, and my mother was also dressed very neatly, and the two of them went to sign and give gifts together, with a smile on their faces. Talking and laughing together in a low voice, it seems that they are in a good mood.

The second brother's eyes kept looking at the wine banquet over there, and he was probably crazy.

Mom's eyes swept around inadvertently, and when she saw me, her face immediately changed, and she glared at me and pulled him into the table.

I sneered in my heart, you ignore me, do you think I'm going to beg you? I also turned around and went to find Liu Cui.
