Chapter 168: Parents' Hearts
"It's better if you're a male baby, and you don't have to worry about not being able to marry a daughter-in-law when you're older, but the second girl and fennel are as big as my swallows, and you really have a heart, and in two years, they will all become old girls."
Aunt Zhu instructed.
At this moment, several little sisters staying in the swallow room are sharing with each other what they have seen and heard during this time and the beautiful silk flowers, and the second girl and fennel have no idea that they are about to be classified as 'old girls' by Aunt Zhuzi.
Knowing that Yanzi had already been on a blind date, they laughed with her about it for a while, completely unaware that they were at an age where they should do so.
……
Swallow got engaged after the moon chasing festival in the autumn of this year. The other party is from the village next door, two years older than her, and the young man runs in the Ruyi restaurant in the town, and he looks quite clever.
On the day of the engagement, they came to the town to buy them, and Erniu and Fennel happened to meet when they were choosing clothes at the Lotus Dress, where they planned to buy two sets of clothes for Swallow.
They came with them, in addition to the matchmaker, there was also a young woman who looked mean-looking, and according to Yanzi, it was the man's sister-in-law.
When Yanzi was choosing the color of her clothes there, she saw that she looked over there from time to time, and the expression on her face was quite unkind.
"Her sister-in-law, at first glance, is not a good match, you don't see those eyeballs, keep staring at the swallow, as if every copper plate spent is from her flesh. If you want me to say, the swallow may not have a good time in the future. ”
After the second girl came back, she said to Sun Chen.
"Two brothers?"
"No, it seems that there are three brothers, and the other party is the second. There are two older sisters above, both of whom have been married for several years, but they are both in a nearby village, and there is a younger brother below who is studying in the school. ”
Sun Chen's heart moved, how familiar this situation was.
"Why did Aunt Zhuzi find her such an in-law?" His whole brow furrowed, such a condition, if he was allowed to choose, he would never agree.
"When we went to drink the noodles, I heard from the swallow. Aunt Zhu inquired in advance and said that her mother-in-law's family is quite capable, and her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law seem to get along well. Every year, two or three big fat pigs are raised, and the home and outside are also cleaned up quite neatly. Her mother-in-law, when she is fine, will carry a dung basket on her back to pick up dung on the road, but she will live. ”
"That's right, Yanzi usually doesn't care much at home, and Aunt Zhuzi is afraid that she won't know anything in the future, so she said that there is a sister-in-law in front of her to help with it, and she just needs to follow her sister-in-law to do it. It is also said that there are two married daughters, and in the future, the old man will have a sick and a sick person, and some people will take turns to wait, and there will be a lot of labor in the family, and she will not need to follow her to the ground during the autumn harvest and summer harvest. Also, the swallow is too boring, then the second child of the Liu family is very funny, and Aunt Zhu said that the two of them will not be too boring together. ……”
Fennel and Erniu were still there talking to Sun Chen about Aunt Zhuzi's thoughts, and Sun Chen had already opened his mouth wide when he listened. He never thought that he would have to consider so many problems just to find an in-law for his daughter.
This is really a pity for the hearts of parents in the world!
Presumably when she chose a daughter-in-law for Da Zhuang, she was also heartbroken like this, right?
Although he doesn't like others to meddle in his own affairs, but at this moment, Sun Chen is inexplicably envious of the big strong brothers and sisters, they really have a good mother.
However, in Sun Chen's heart, he still sweated for Yanzi. Aunt Zhu thinks that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Liu family are getting along well now, can the same be true after the swallow enters the door in the future? Not everyone's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are the same as the Da Zhuang family.
An eldest daughter-in-law who is quite good at having a good relationship with her mother-in-law, and a little uncle who is still studying, I just don't know if her mother-in-law, who can't be idle all day long and doesn't even let go of the manure of roadside livestock, is really so diligent, and whether the two eldest sisters have gentle personalities.
However, these are not things that Sun Chen should worry about, everyone's blessings and creations are fixed in the dark, and they cannot be controlled by his own strength.
……
As soon as the Moon Chasing Festival passed, it was like a signal that the young men and women of the Apocalypse Dynasty were busy setting their lives, and they could meet crowds of people rushing to buy things everywhere on the street.
Li Yicong of the uncle's family also joined in this fun.
After returning from Nanjun, he began to meet the girl at the request of the eldest concubine, but he never chose any of them.
Sun Chen knew that he had someone in his heart, and Li Yiming also knew it. So after he found an excuse to fall out with his blind date again, the girl in his heart also surfaced.
The family knew that he had a heart, even if it wasn't chosen for him, they planned to help him try to get along, but after finding a matchmaker to go to the woman to propose, he ran into a soft nail.
People are scholarly and look down on merchants like the Li family. No matter how many times the matchmaker goes, he always ignores them.
Originally, the Li family wanted to give up, but since they didn't want to deal with it, they couldn't use their hot face to stick to other people's cold butts. But in another village, the woman's mother came to find her.
It turned out that the girl's father was seriously ill, but the family did not have enough savings to pay for expensive medical expenses, so she had no choice but to agree to marry the Li family.
Originally, according to the meaning of my grandmother and uncle, since I didn't want to dislike myself as a merchant at the beginning, and finally reluctantly agreed for the sake of money, my good man couldn't afford to be cheap and then agreed, but Li Yicong really liked it, so he could only grit his teeth and ignore it.
The bride price proposed by the other party is 1,000 taels. also made a somewhat rude request to prevent the Li family from making a noise.
Because they don't want others to know that they have asked for so much bride price, as if they are selling their daughter, and they don't look good.
The uncle was so angry that he slapped the table, saying that this was to let someone else slap the left cheek and then send the right cheek, but in the end, he still watched his son take the silver ticket and happily went to the woman's house.
After hearing this, Sun Chen also felt that Li Yicong was cheap, there was no grass at the end of the world, could he put himself into the dust for such a little girl?
But looking at his cousin's eyes that seemed to glow, he could only sigh, his own path was his own choice, as long as he didn't regret it in the future.
On the day of Li Yicong's engagement, Sun Chen simply moved everything back and came to his grandmother's house to join in the fun.
Erniu and Fennel naturally followed, and like Sun Chen, they all wanted to see who the little girl who confused Li Yicong's whole mind was. Does she look the same as Li Yicong said, so beautiful and fragrant, no one can beat her.
