Chapter 362: Relatives
Chapter 362
Zhang Cuilian looked at the thoughtful Wang Ma, thought about it and added a handful of firewood: "I heard you say before, you two don't expect Xiaohua to really recruit a son-in-law to support the elderly." But you don't expect that the two girls will really be able to ignore you."
Wang Xiaohua nodded, and Wang Dahua also echoed: "That's it, I can still ignore you when I'm old."
"Xiaohua has the ability to do good craftsmanship and save a little more money while she is young. , but also to save a pension for the two of you. Besides, how much money can the small store in Dahua earn in a year, and in the future, children don't need money to go to school, they don't need money to get married, and Dahua doesn't need money to support the elderly, even if she gets married, she can count on her stepfather to manage everything."
Zhang Cuilian's words poked Wang Wu's heart, which was what he had been most worried about.
"If you don't go to school, then you won't marry" Wang Ma said that she had no confidence at all, but she just forced her face to be hard-mouthed.
Everyone knows this truth, but no one has ever said it. Wang Dahua's appearance is mediocre and spicy, and she can't compare with her sister Wang Xiaohua's gentle and beautiful appearance. She is not only a widow but also with a child, and she doesn't know how much it will cost her life.
Who would marry a widow with an oil bottle in good conditions, but the conditions are not good, and Wang Dahua is afraid of mistreating her children when she marries.
"Xiaohua's craftsmanship is good, but she has too little life experience. Dahua can't make tofu, but this business can be regarded as a success. I look at that small store, and the old couple of the Yang family can see it. It's better to take out the little land at home and do it with Xiaohua. Sisters work together, and their profits are broken. Zhang Cuilian's words made quite sense, and Wang Xiaohua looked at her sister happily. couldn't help but say: "Then the tofu factory is called the sister tofu factory, I make tofu and you run the business." Our mother is an accountant, and our father is the general manager. ”
As soon as she said this, Wang Dahua sneered. Even Wang's mother, who had been sullen, also showed a happy appearance. Wang Wu's face was pleasant, but his eyes kept looking at Zhang Cuilian.
Recently, the family has been very stiff because of the tofu factory, and the old wife thinks that the two daughters join hands and don't know the height of the sky, and the two children think that the old wife is stubborn and ineffective. He is caught in the middle and does not persuade, nor does he not persuade.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Zhang Cuilian said a few words, she moved her old wife.
In fact, Zhang Cuilian is just living on her own, and she has also had a daughter. understands the mother's expectations for her daughter's lifelong events, not to be rich and rich, but to have someone who knows cold and hot in this life and can take care of her. But I was worried that she would not be treated by her in-laws, and that her mother's family would not be able to protect her married daughter. In short, the mood is complicated and very contradictory.
If you open a tofu factory at home and buy advanced equipment, come back. If the tofu is made more and sold well, then the family will have more and more money. Wang Dahua and her grandson don't have to worry about their livelihood, and Wang Xiaohua doesn't have to be afraid of being swept away.
It's just that this business is so easy, Wang Ma's worry is also Wang Wu's worry, and the husband and wife have no confidence.
Fortunately, the Wang family did not have any requirements for the Song family in terms of bride price, but only put forward a point that they wanted to get engaged first. The matter of the two children was booked, and the future matters were discussed slowly.
Zhang Cuilian is also a matchmaker for the first time, and she was a little apprehensive, and she didn't know much about the rules or anything. I was already very panicked about talking about marriage before the two started to fall in love, and now I have become a complete messenger.
The Song family has no objection, since the Wang family agrees, everything is easy to say. After two days of finding a good day, Song Lei's family invited the Gu family and his wife to go to the Wang family together.
This is the first time that the two families have met in such an identity for so many years, and the people next to them only thought it was an ordinary dinner, and no one thought about it.
Wang's mother has been wishing for many years, but half of it has been fulfilled, and she is busy in the kitchen with Song's mother. Although I have come to the woman's house many times, this time I am really a little trembling. I brought a lot of things, and I didn't know what to say when I was cooking.
Inside the house, Wang Xiaohua changed her usual down-to-earth and generous appearance, hiding in the room and being embarrassed to come out. Song Lei is thin-skinned again, and he is embarrassed to look for her.
If it weren't for Wang Dahua's fast brain, let his children find two people to play. If it weren't for that, these two people would still be holding it there.
Wang Dahua was also convinced: "It's really good, since the day I went back." The two of them hadn't even seen each other, and neither of them was embarrassed to see anyone. You're saying it's interesting, oh my God, these are all ancients. ”
Zhang Cuilian pursed her lips and smiled, and Wang Wu also smiled and said that her eldest daughter was: "Nonsense". drove her to help in the kitchen, and he discussed the marriage of the two children with the prospective in-laws.
The two families have been friends for many years, and they are very clear about each other's character and problems. The Song family is now a difficult time to start a business, and Wang Wu will not ask for any bride price.
"What are the customs on our side" Gu Zhicheng was still at a loss when he saw Zhang Cuilian, and he didn't know what the matchmaker's responsibility was. I didn't see that the parents of both families were holding back there, waiting for her, the matchmaker, to start talking about specific things.
When he asked, Wang Wu and Lao Song started talking. According to the rules of Yangzhuang, the in-laws are responsible for the bride price, three golds, and the bride's clothes. The bride price varies from person to person, but it is generally at least 4,000 yuan. And this money is for the woman's mother's family, not to her mother-in-law's house. As for the appliances in the new house, they are also particular, and they have to change every few years.
"Like Dahua was married at that time, television, sewing machine, radio." As soon as Wang Wu's words fell, Zhang Cuilian couldn't help but exclaim: "Ah, this requirement is too low." ”
Gu Zhicheng glared at Zhang Cuilian and signaled her not to make a fuss. Zhang Cuilian also regretted that she was too impulsive and shouldn't have yelled. But Wang Dahua is not much different from herself, and when she got married, it should be when she was in high school.
People in the city want TVs, refrigerators, and washing machines when they get married. When he was not married, the Gu family already had these household appliances. And when arranging the room, Gu Zhicheng didn't care about these either.
"We don't pay so much attention to it in the countryside, and washing machines and refrigerators are not important things. It's good to have a radio, but it's good to have hundreds, if not thousands. Wang Wu looked serious, with a little distress in his tone: "When our family got married, I bought a TV. When the girl goes out, she can't give nothing to the sewing machine that her Uncle Song bought it, oops, it will take ten years for a while. ”
Wang Wu glanced at the smiling old man, and said with a smile: "Your family is short of money, and we don't pay attention to that false name." We don't want the bride price, and we don't have anything else to ask for, that is, my daughter has to marry decently. ”
This is not a requirement for the Song family at all, and there is no need for Wang Wu to emphasize that Song Lei's wedding must be done in a big way. Even if it is against the Yang family, they have to go to bad luck.
Today, even if the two children are engaged, the two families have a reunion dinner together. As matchmakers, the Gu family and his wife must have to say two nice words during the banquet.
"You don't have anything to ask for, we can't help but say it." Song Lei's mother held Wang Xiaohua's hand with a look of pity. While rubbing the back of Wang Xiaohua's delicate hand with her rough hand, she said to everyone with a smile: "It's true that our family is short of money now, but we can't treat Xiaohua'er badly." ”
"We're going to push the house down and build a big tiled house again. When it was time to decorate, I gave the money to Xiaohua so that the flowers could be decorated according to her heart. "The Song family is still an old house decades ago, and I thought that Song Lei would stay in the city after going to college. The Song family originally thought that they could just flip the cover, but no one thought that Song Lei would stay at home.
Originally, it was no problem for the Wang family to ask for a new house, but the Wang family didn't mention that the Song family itself couldn't help but say it.
"When the wheat harvest is over in the fall, let's build the house. As soon as it froze, the marriage was done. "Why did you choose such a day, the mothers of the two families have just discussed it in the kitchen. In front of everyone, I was embarrassed to explain. Zhang Cuilian and Wang Dahua looked at each other and smiled, and both of them laughed. Only Wang Xiaohua and a few men didn't understand, and they were confused.
"I'm not bad with gold rings, gold earrings, or gold necklaces. Since you don't want a bride price, I'll add another gold bracelet at the right time. The Song family said in front of the matchmaker, and the matter was settled. And with Song Lei's mother's personality, as long as she says it, she will not regret it.
Gu Zhicheng was glad that he had chosen the right person at this time, and the Song family's life was really worthy of deep friendship. If someone else gives in one step, they will take three steps back. Someone else gives one good point, and they will return five points.
When they negotiated with the Song family before, the two of them did not mention the matter of the gold bracelet. This is obviously a temporary decision made by the Song family moved by the Wang family's understanding after the Wang family took the initiative not to pay a bride price and did not propose to build a new house.
Nowadays, the Song family's fish pond is not without grains, and there are fish fry in the fish pond when it is contracted. After a long winter of growth, Kaijiang in April had a batch of fatty fish. After Fu Xin's help, the Song family sold it for a good price.
And it doesn't take much money to build a house in the fall, and the Song family can afford it. The Wang family didn't have any requirements, but it became a kind of motivation for them.
"Xiaohua has always wanted to make the tofu shop bigger, and ordering tofu in the restaurant is also a good market. In fact, when I went to a restaurant to sell fish, it was not as difficult as I imagined. Every restaurant has to ask for tofu, and the tofu has to be fresh. Small restaurants have to go to the vegetable market to sell them, and big restaurants have to be delivered by someone on a daily basis. Song Lei's words are much more reliable than others, and in the ears of Wang Ma, it is called the head of the way.
"And I need a lot of bean cakes in the fish pond, and you can sell me the leftovers." Other than that, as Zhang Cuilian said. You can also make some soy products such as tofu skin, tofu puffs, and dried tofu.
Since the new aunt also agreed, Wang Ma had no reason to disagree at this time. It's just that the price of the tofu machine is very expensive, and how long does it take to recover the cost.
