8. Marriage

After the uncle entered the house, he looked back again, and after confirming that the person was far away, he closed the door and walked to the other side of the kang table and sat down.

"What are you doing here?" Madame glanced at her uncle and asked angrily.

"Look at what you said, my sister's wedding is coming, as a brother, come and see what my sister tells me, is there anything wrong?"

Then he leaned forward again, looked outside the house, and said in a low voice, "What are you doing with two girls in the house?" It can't be spying on you, right? ”

The lady flashed back, and said with some disgust: "Be a maid for me, can't you accompany me to relieve my boredom?" ”

The uncle seemed to be accustomed to this expression, and continued without any reaction: "Could it be that this reckless suspicion is right?" No, we have to hurry, I'll go to him today to set the date, you remember what I told you, don't forget..."

Madame put down her cheek-holding hand, sat up straight, stared straight at her uncle and said, "You can think clearly, this time is different from the previous times, they are bandits, they dare to kill us if they are in a hurry!" ”

"What's wrong with the bandits, aren't they just going to do a little bit of kung fu, look at those who are dumbfounded, and in the end they are not being played by us?!" Uncle looked indifferent.

"I've heard that the bandits here are different from other bandits..."

"Okay, okay," the uncle interrupted his wife impatiently, "no matter what, they are also bandits, and they have robbed a lot of money, wow, we just took a little bit from them, and we don't want his life, what's the big deal!" ”

Immediately, the uncle stared at the lady as if he remembered something and asked, "You shouldn't have taken a fancy to this recklessness, right?" Are you not going home? ”

Madame's cheeks were red with anger, and she shouted at her uncle: "You are talking nonsense! If you hadn't instigated me to go with you, would I have ended up where I am today? Follow you to do some deception..."Madame was a little angry, her body began to tremble, and her voice was a little choked.

"You can be quiet!" Uncle was also anxious: "If people hear that we are both finished, okay, this is the last time, and when the money is in hand, I will take you back to Yan Country immediately." ”

Who knew that the lady cried even more sadly when she heard this, and sobbed and said, "What face do I have to go back, how can I go back..."

"Who's going back?" At this time, a hearty voice sounded outside the door, and the two brothers and sisters in the house were startled!

Before the words fell, the big boss had already pushed the door in, and when he saw the lady's pear blossom with rain, especially the eyes with stars and tears, he was slightly stunned.

The uncle reacted very quickly, and hurriedly smiled and said: "Oh, it's the big boss, isn't this talking about your marriage, my sister is starting to feel homesick again, although the parents are gone, but there are still some uncles and aunts in the hometown, and I don't know how they are doing now, so it's a little uncomfortable." ”

"Hey, what's so uncomfortable about that, let's go back to my hometown with you after the ceremony," the big boss still stared at his wife without blinking when he said this.

The lady turned her back slightly.

The uncle walked up to the big boss with a smile and said, "My sister is thin-faced and shy. It's not a matter of urgency to go back to your hometown this time, the most important thing at the moment is to set your day, and you can say anything when you get married. ”

"Okay, I'll find a ** to calculate which day is the auspicious day of the zodiac" The big boss glanced at his wife again, turned around and prepared to go out.

"Wait a minute, the big boss...", the uncle hurriedly blocked the way of the big boss.

"What's the matter with my uncle?" The big boss was almost a head taller than his uncle, and he had to look down at him.

"There is a saying in our hometown, called five but seven, that is, it is better to pick five days before than after seven. We've been up the mountain for a few days and half a month, and it's almost February 15, or let's set it for February 15, and the two fifteens together are just a good number. Uncle pinched his fingers and said as he calculated.

"Well, let's set it for February 15th." The big boss nodded in reply.

"That's... Counting that there are still three days to prepare today, then we have to hurry up, and hurry up to buy what should be done. ”

"Okay, you see what needs to be done, you tell **, let him arrange someone to do it."

"No, no," the uncle was a little anxious, "In our hometown, the things that the girls use to go out of the pavilion are all purchased by the mother's family, and it is not appropriate for someone else to do it." The uncle paused and said, "I don't pay so much attention to it now, let's keep everything simple, but here my sister is only one relative, so I'll do it myself." ”

"That's okay," the big boss thought for a while and said, "I'll say hello to ** when I go back, find him how much money you need, and ask him to arrange it for you if you need manpower." ”

"Okay, okay" Uncle nodded in agreement.

The big boss looked around, then looked at his wife and asked, "Are you still satisfied with the two maids arranged for you?" If you are satisfied, you will be left in the house, and if you are not satisfied, you will be sent away. ”

Madame tilted her head slightly, nodded slightly, and said, "It's okay, just let them keep." ”

"Well, that's good. Okay, don't delay your brothers and sisters talking, I'll go first. The big boss glanced at Madame again, and turned to go out.

"Big boss, I'll go with you, this happy event can't be sloppy, I'll go down the mountain to buy it now..."

The lady who was left in the room stared at the door in a daze, then sighed heavily and sat down on the kang...
