Chapter 160: Greeting Relatives
"Daughter, we really fell into the honey pot, I don't know how many people envy our mother! You'll be an official's wife in the future, so you can't go to that radio station anymore and show your face. Zhao said to Su Ziyu with a smile.
According to Wang Yue's opinion, there was only one person left in the Zhao family, so he simply arranged for her to live in the Wang family's garden. In the future, the brothers had a villa for each person, and the room was too empty. Of course, Wang Zhuo has no opinion, but he can envy those old sisters of the Zhao family.
Su Ziyu smiled and said, "Mother, what are you talking about?" Doesn't the second uncle often say that the women of our starting point city also have to hold up half the sky, and the social status of women is earned by themselves. Which do you think is more respected, whether I eat at home or work at the radio station? ”
Both men and women in the starting point city have jobs suitable for them, and even if they are feudal, they can't resist the temptation that the women in the family can earn two or three taels of silver a month.
The regulations on the punishment of public security in the starting point city have issued detailed rules, one of which stipulates that all citizens holding the identity card of the starting point city have the right to dispose of their personal property and income, and no one may illegally interfere with it.
Wang Yue's original intention was to prevent the patriarch from interfering in other family affairs and curb the formation of large families.
As a result, this provision also protects the independence of women in the family, and parents cannot legally compel their children to pay their income.
With independent income control, coupled with independent citizenship, the road to freedom of marriage has been opened.
The Zhao clan has been in the starting point city for so long, and they have also felt this huge change. Her old sisters are now talking louder and louder at home, which was unimaginable before.
"Oh, the world in this city makes Wei Niang more and more incomprehensible!" Zhao said with emotion.
The two of them were chatting in the room, and the maid of the Wang family came over and invited them downstairs to eat.
Wang Yue was playing with his sister Wang Ni, and when he saw them coming downstairs, he stood up and greeted: "Sister-in-law, Aunt Zhao!" You may be seated. ”
Although it has been three days since she married into the Wang family, Su Ziyu is still blessed: "Second uncle." ”
If you want to ask Wang Yue if he had a mind about Su Ziyu at the beginning, he really didn't. At that time, he was fighting with Zhang Ziyun, and with his modern thinking, he really didn't think about that aspect when he was in love. What's more, Wang Zhuo fell in love with Su Ziyu later, and Wang Yue immediately brought himself into the role of his younger brother.
Zhao didn't adapt to the change of identity so quickly, she said politely: "The old body should thank Lord Wang for taking care of me." ”
Wang Yue smiled and said: "In the future, we will all be a family, don't be polite, you can just call me Sihua in the future." ”
Li Xiufang happened to come in and said enthusiastically: "Mother-in-law, what the second son said is right, you are now his elder, you can't be an adult anymore, an adult is short, see more outside!" ”
"Hey, hey!" When the Zhao family first heard that they were going to live in the Wang family in the future, they were worried that the Wang family would look down on them, but they didn't expect this family to get along so easily.
Li Xiufang continued: "We all came here from Shanxi and suffered the same hardships. What's more, now that we have become in-laws again, we should help each other even more. You said no? Mother-in-law! ”
Zhao nodded again and again: "That's right, what a good person!" My daughter didn't know how much merit she had cultivated in her previous life, but she could have this blessing in this life. ”
Li Xiufang said with a smile: "When the second son marries Ziyun back, this family will be complete." ”
Then she said to Wang Yue: "Second son, I'm busy with my mother during this time. Seeing that the two of you are married, you forgot to say hello to your second grandfather's house, and your uncle didn't notify you. This time there is a famine, I don't know what happened to your uncle's family. ”
As she spoke, she wiped away tears.
These relatives of the Wang family, since the decline of the Wang Yue family, have been moving less and less.
Wang Yue comforted: "Mother, after a while, I will send someone to send some silver to the second grandfather and uncle. If they are willing to come to Jingshi, they will be taken over. How is it? ”
For these relatives, Wang Yue was more impressed by his uncle, because there were more contacts.
The second grandfather separated earlier, and only remembered that he visited them when he went to Taiyuan Mansion to take the exam. The two uncles are not bad and are very enthusiastic about him, only the second grandfather's attitude is not very good.
Li Xiufang sighed and said, "That's right!" Your second grandfather has a stubborn temper, although he fell out with your grandfather and split up the family, but the elders are the elders. Those of you who are juniors must not hold grudges, you can't write two king characters in one stroke. ”
This era is a family society, and people have a strong sense of family.
Wang Yue nodded and said, "The child knows." ”
The highway from Guangning Gate to the starting point city was the first to be completed, and since then there has been a real highway from the capital to the starting point city and Lugou Bridge. The 30-meter-wide and 15-kilometer-long cement pavement attracts countless people to visit.
Whether it was the low-level people or the officials and gentry, the merchants and traders all expressed sincere joy at the completion of this road. It's great that I'm not afraid of rainy days anymore and the ox carts and carriages aren't so bumpy. Some of the peasants who returned to the village wondered if they should bring their rice and wheat over to dry, and the road was too flat, smoother than the threshing floor in the village.
In addition to the real rush of the new road, the new road that has just been built is the one that comes out of the city to see the freshness.
Today's novelty doesn't stop there, a convoy came from the direction of the starting city, starting with a maroon red Maserati off-road with a sunroof, and a camera on the roof. After that, eight Onyx Red Jaguar XJs, five Bilian minibuses, one medium-sized van and one armored command vehicle were scattered, all of which had the word "Xi" on them.
This is still the number of Wang Yue compressed and compressed, and there are many people to be picked up, Xie Baoqing, the three bigwigs of the Ministry of Industry, several Lang Zhong, Dingguo Gong, Lu Chengde, Sun Jinyong, and Li Jizhen, the squire of the Ministry of War, and some officials of the Ministry of War.
Zhang Fengyi died of an overdose of jute because the Qing army disturbed the Beijing division, fearing that he would be condemned, and the current military department is temporarily managed by Li Jizhen. Wang Yue is a member of the military department, and these colleagues are also invited.
In addition, there are too many people in the British government. Seven aunts and eight aunts, maids and mothers-in-law, dozens of mouths.
Bilian is eighteen seats, plus Jaguar, just to solve the passenger volume. Medium-sized vans were used to pull Zhang Ziyun's dowry, and the amount of dowry in the British government was also huge. The bride price was sent yesterday, and the more special gift was a set of generators and electric light wires, which means that the British government is going to realize electric lighting.
Wang Yue chose red between the white and red of the car, and finally chose red to adapt to the trend of the times.
