Chapter Seventy-Seven: Farewell to the Younger Brother in Family Affairs
Xiangzi smiled at Tie Dan with relief, and said, "I'll be in charge of your business."
Bring the chrysanthemum, I have something to say to you two. ”
Tie Dan was so happy that he went out the door.
After a while, he entered the door with Chrysanthemum one after the other.
Xiangzi Zhengse said: "I discussed with Brother Shao, and the day after tomorrow will be set." ”
Tie Dan and Chrysanthemum looked at each other suspiciously, and then shyly glanced at each other, sweeping around on the faces of Xiangzi and Shao Youcai.
Xiangzi smiled faintly at the two of them and said, "The days are tight, and some of them can't live with the Shao family brothers and sisters."
But I can't delay here for too long, thanks to Brother Shao's tolerance and righteousness, everything is up to me. Then I'll be the Lord for you. ”
As he spoke, he got up and took out a bag of silver dollars from his backpack and said, "Here are eighty pieces of ocean, and the rest is used to buy mules except for your marriage."
I've brought the cart and left it to you.
If you are busy in the field, you will go to work on your feet and feed the family to eat and drink, and there is no problem. ”
Iron eggs, for a while mixed feelings.
With a red face, he stared at Xiangzi deadly, and couldn't hold back a word.
Shao Youcai slowly stood up from the chair.
His lips squirmed a few times before he said in surprise, "Oops! That's too much, isn't it? ”
Xiangzi smiled at him and said, "What's rude, the family doesn't talk about it."
Tie Dan is my brother, and it is within his duty to give him Zhang Luo. ”
Shao Youcai, with admiration, looked at Xiangzi for a long time.
He hung his head heavily, and didn't say a word.
Xiangzi paused for a moment and said with a serious expression: "In the future, the home will be made by chrysanthemums."
Tie Dan and Brother Shao just have to find a job to earn money and come back, and the chrysanthemum will take care of everyone's life.
With this arrangement, Tie Dan doesn't have any opinions, right? ”
Tie Dan hurriedly said: "Listen to my brother, listen to my brother." ”
Xiangzi turned around and looked at Shao Youcai again, and Shao Youcai nodded heavily at him.
Xiangzi saw that everyone didn't have anything to say, so he smiled at Chrysanthemum and said, "Chrysanthemum, come here." ”
Chrysanthemum approached shyly, and Shoko handed her the money bag and said, "For now, do this."
You take Brother Shao with Tiedan, and go to buy a new set of clothes for everyone first.
In addition, the uncle is also replaced with a new one inside and out.
By the way, I will buy some things for the wedding.
Brother Shao is a cultural person, and he wants to put him in a decent gown.
Chrysanthemums are your own wear, just look at the bought.
Be a bride once, don't be reluctant to spend money. ”
After sending them away, Xiangzi called Tiewa, took out a piece of money from his pocket, and handed it to him, "You go and buy some lime, find two people, and pick up the house at the west end for Brother Shao."
I see that the kang is also collapsing, find a piece of kang face to make it, and it is good to burn the fire when it is cold.
In the past two days, I'm afraid I'm going to work hard for you. ”
As he spoke, he patted him lightly on the shoulder of the iron baby.
Tiewa replied briskly: "Don't worry! Mo Ma rides. ”
As he spoke, he turned around and went out the door.
After settling down, Xiangzi wandered to the vegetable patch in the backyard, where the uncle was holding the persimmon stand.
Xiangzi picked a tender cucumber, rubbed it with her hands, and ate it with a chirp.
Seeing that the uncle looked up and saw him, he hurriedly beckoned the old man to rest on the ground.
Waiting for the old man to roll up the Mohe cigarette tremblingly, Xiangzi helped him light it, and then slowly told the old man about the iron egg and chrysanthemum, the doctrine of 1510.
The old man has dizziness and cannot be stimulated.
Therefore, Xiangzi tried to explain to him as slowly as possible, so as not to make the old man anxious.
When the old man fully understood everything, he was so grateful that he couldn't say a word.
Chrysanthemum is really a good hand at managing the family.
In less than half a day, he took care of all the things of marriage clearly.
Not only did he put on a new one for his family from head to toe, but he also gave his own house a new cover, and even the old man's kang was renovated.
Everything was taken care of, and it took less than twenty oceans.
The old man originally planned to slaughter the half-grown pig he was feeding for guests, but was stopped by Chrysanthemum.
said: "It's the time to grow fat, it's a pity to slaughter it."
At the end of the year, not only can you keep some for yourself, but you can also sell the rest at a good price.
Right now, it only costs a lot to buy half a fan pig. ”
When the old man heard this, he was so convinced that he nodded and praised again and again.
From then on, the big and small things in the family will no longer be asserted, and it will all depend on the chrysanthemum to make ideas.
Countrymen are honest and enthusiastic.
One family is doing a happy event, and ten families are busy.
A group of women, busy cutting paper and sewing quilts, hanging red and green, steaming buns and picking up vegetables;
The man was busy chopping wood from a pot and sharpening knives to cut meat.
Everything seems busy and orderly.
Chrysanthemum has been living in Tiewa's house, and on this day, she married from Tiewa's house.
Xiangzi rushed to the carriage and decorated the carriage with a few young men, and it became a beautiful and atmospheric wedding car.
Rushed by Tiewa, she welcomed back the bride with a blow.
That scene was not chilling at all.
As soon as the new car arrived at the hospital, I saw a group of people, carrying a singing guy in their hands, and walked in with a smile.
Tie Dan was stunned, and he didn't know how to greet people.
Because, that group of people is a troupe specially designed for wealthy families to help entertain red and white ceremonies, and ordinary people can't afford to hire them.
I saw the leader step forward and arch his hand at the groom: "Congratulations!" Congratulations! We're here uninvited, and we're not taking a penny.
This time, I heard that your family is a nobleman.
These two are to admire the talents of the Shao family brothers and sisters.
I pushed other promises and came to your house to be lively. ”
When Shoko heard this, he hurriedly came over and said, "Thank you." ”
After a polite exchange, the courtyard suddenly became lively.
After the wedding, people began to sing while eating, and the degree of festivity was not lost to large families.
After a while, the leader of the troupe leaned into Tie Dan's ear and muttered a few words.
Tie Dan hesitated, glanced blankly at the table, and walked towards Shao Youcai.
also muttered in his ear for a while, then saw Shao Youcai, smiled heartily, and said: "We poor families don't pay attention to it, just want to have fun."
Quickly went and lifted the hijab, led the daughter-in-law to meet with everyone. ”
So, Tie Dan happily ran into the house.
Chrysanthemum, dressed in bright red cloth clothes and pants, walked out of the house shyly.
Although it is not like the bride of a rich family, it is wrapped in silk and satin, and the head is covered with a phoenix crown.
But the fresh and elegant dress, and the small and beautiful appearance, give people a feeling of being otherworldly and fragrant with plums in the field.
Attracted the crowd and let out a burst of praise tsk.
Shao Youcai reconciled with the pianist of the opera troupe, and asked Chrysanthemum to sing music for everyone.
As soon as Chrysanthemum opened her mouth, the person eating the table froze and stopped the chopsticks.
Inside and outside the courtyard, it was crowded with people, and it was lively until the sun was in the west, and then it gradually dispersed.
In the first two days, Xiangzi gave the horse a saddle and a blanket.
Early in the morning, I packed my luggage and prepared to leave.
When Tie Dan and Chrysanthemum saluted their father, Xiangzi came over to bid them farewell.
When Tie Dan heard that Xiangzi was leaving, he said that he would not do anything.
It's still Chrysanthemum who is sensible, and when he saw that the iron egg was entangled and embarrassed Xiangzi, he stepped forward and said, "Just listen to the eldest brother!"
It doesn't matter, and the eldest brother won't be in such a hurry. ”
Seeing that Tie Dan hesitantly let go of his hand, he smiled at Xiangzi again and said, "Big brother will talk first, it's too late to make dumplings, I'll cook a bowl of noodles and eat before leaving." ”
As he spoke, he turned into the room.
After a while, a bowl of hot noodles was served, and two poached eggs were laid.
Tie Dan sent Xiangzi to the entrance of the town until he stopped under Xiangzi's repeated urging.
Shoko Chong waved his hand easily like an iron egg about to cry, then jumped on the horse's back and ran forward happily.
Looking at the figure of the iron egg gradually disappearing, Xiangzi suddenly felt a sense of relaxed pleasure in his heart.
This is not because he helped a poor person who should be helped, but because he has a brother of his own family with the same surname.
From then on, he was no longer an orphan without relatives, he had a brother.
