Chapter 110: Intentions

Zhao Wu, who chased to the door, was dragged into the yard by Aunt Chen, and when Zhang Jie turned around, he saw the girl covering her face and looking afraid to see anyone, so she knew that she was thin-skinned, and the villagers around had a little unspeakable taste in their eyes, even Zhang Jie felt that his face was a little feverish.

took the girl's hand into the courtyard, and then Zhang Jie took the initiative to close the courtyard door, and when the heavy courtyard gate blocked the blazing eyes outside, Zhao Ping quietly put down the hand covering her face, but the tears on her face have not dried, and there is a feeling of pity for me!

The courtyard is not easy to treat, the hardcover man who is still shirtless stares at a pair of bull's eyes, looking like a cannibal, since he wants to kidnap other people's daughters, then he can't be-for-tat at this time, after a little silence, Zhang Jie said to the woman on the side:

"Aunt Chen, you look so good, I don't know what rules are in the village, like this, I will find a matchmaker to come to the door to propose marriage, what people have, they will never lose the slightest loss to Ping'er, what kind of dowry, your second elder just speaks, absolutely can't be wronged Ping'er!"

Aunt Chen on the side saw her daughter's appearance, where did she not understand her girl's thoughts, besides, Aunt Chen was also very satisfied with the little husband in front of her, otherwise she would not have come to the door three times and twice, originally planned to pay this penny of the bride price, but also posted most of the family property, and now she can marry her daughter so openly and brightly, it is naturally a thousand satisfactions!

But before Aunt Chen agreed, she saw Zhao Wu in the house with a cold face and said: "I'll tell you the truth today, the nephew outside the county town Chen Yuan, when people propose marriage, don't talk about the messy bride price, people are planning to carry a box of silver naked people to the door to ask for marriage, I don't embarrass you, you don't want to carry a box, just spread a layer on the box." ”

After Zhao Wu, who had a black face, finished speaking, he saw Aunt Chen on the side and immediately became anxious, wanting to spread a layer of silver naked on the box, without fifty taels, he would definitely not be able to take it down, what kind of family background did Zhang Jie's family, Aunt Chen naturally knew that the lion opened his mouth to ask for such a large number of dowries, which was obviously no different from a direct refusal.

Before Aunt Chen could speak, she saw the man with bare muscles suddenly glaring at her with Tongling-like eyes, and she chuckled in her heart, and Aunt Chen knew that her man had paid attention, and it was not good to say anything at this time!

"Since Uncle Zhao said so, when the matchmaker comes to the door tomorrow, it will naturally satisfy your second elder!" Smiling at the pale-faced girl, Zhang Jie turned his face and left!

When the young man walked away, he saw Aunt Chen, who was full of annoyance, pinched the man in front of him fiercely, and then said eagerly:

"Are you crazy? How did I not know that Chen Yuanwai's nephew asked for a dowry for a box of silver nudes? Don't you know what Zhang Xianggong's house looks like? The uncle and nephew have just come back from the exam, and the family is estimated to have been emptied, you ask his family for a dowry of fifty taels of silver, where can they get it for you? ”

"Humph! Women don't want to think about it, what's the use of me asking for money? Don't say fifty taels of silver, what is the use of him giving me five hundred taels of silver? When I'm old, won't all the money be in Ping'er? To give his kid a dismount like this, just to tell him that my daughter is not that no one wants, but it is posted upside down to his family, and my daughter is married to his righteous Ming media. ”

Seeing that the woman on the side was still hesitant, Zhao Wu, who had a gloomy face, immediately said coldly:

"Tell you, man, it's such a cheap bone, if you send it up, or even upside down, he will definitely not know how to cherish, Ping'er doesn't know how much suffering he will have to suffer in the future, only in this way will he marry Ping'er home with all kinds of difficulties, and he will know to cherish it in the future, I'm like this, isn't it for Ping'er to be comfortable in the future?"

"Yes...... But like this! Aunt Chen, who was still not very relieved, saw that her daughter had turned her face and returned to the room, so she said softly: "Our family is such a lion, I am afraid that even if Ping'er marries in the future, her mother-in-law has borrowed a debt, and if she sprinkles all her anger on Ping'er at that time, won't it be counterproductive?" ”

"I said why are you so brainless, didn't you say it, our family is just Ping'er's child, and the family has a lot of money in the end, isn't it all Ping'er's? His family gave a dowry of fifty silver ingots, and I, Zhao Wu, accompanied my daughter's dowry of five hundred silver ingots, to see who dared to bully my daughter! ”

……

Naturally, Zhang Jie didn't know the calculations of the old couple in the yard, out of Zhaojia Village, the kick on the waist was relieved at this time, and when he returned home step by step, it was almost noon, he got up early in the morning, and he didn't eat at all.

The sun was poisonous outside, and there was naturally no one in the yard at home, and when he entered the kitchen, Zhang Jie rummaged for a while, but he didn't find any food that could be eaten, and when he sighed, he saw the little aunt follow.

"Putting you in a bowl of noodles? Or will we have lunch together? Seeing Zhang Jie in the kitchen, Zhang Xia naturally knew that he was hungry, because it was time to make lunch later, so he asked like this.

"Don't wait, let's take two bowls of noodles, one bowl for each person, and when we're done, come with me to Xiaoli Village."

While speaking, Zhang Jie came to the stove and began to prepare firewood for a fire.

When Zhang Xia saw him like this, she knew that he was really hungry, so she put water in the pot, and then quickly got up, the weather was hot, but after a few movements, there was sweat on her forehead, and Zhang Xia, who wiped the sweat on the tip of her nose, said softly:

"I only went to Xiaoli Village last month to change the toothbrush in my hand for money, and now I don't have two toothbrushes in my hand, what are I going to do now?"

"Don't do it! You can be responsible for carrying the money for me later, I'm afraid I won't be able to do it alone! ”

Zhang Jie, who lit the firewood, put a chopping wood at the bottom of the pot, and the flames in the stove reflected his face red, and Zhang Xia, who was originally on the side, suddenly stopped, then tilted his head and thought for a while, and then said:

"Is it because Zhao Shuang's greenhouse was planted last winter, so you went to collect the money? Let's exchange money with a toothbrush, it's already considered to be a return to the capital, isn't it a little ...... to get up like this It's a little too much! ”

"You know what, your toothbrush only gets a few dollars a year? Do you want to get your money back? Tell you, even the interest is not enough, originally people came to the door a few months ago to ask me to get dividends, but at that time our family didn't have much money, plus I was studying wholeheartedly, and I was too lazy to take care of those trivial things, but now it's different, in a few days our family will have to spend a lot of money, no money can't work! ”

The body retreated, away from the flame next to the stove, and saw that the water in the pot had boiled, Zhang Jie urged: "The pot is boiling, hurry down!" ”

Waiting for Zhang Xia's panicked noodles to go down to the pot, waiting for the pot to boil, Zhang Xia whispered: "Are you going to ask how much people want, and one person can't carry it?" ”

"I don't know, a few months ago, Zhao Shuang came to me and said that he wanted to give me thirty percent gross profit, so I would have to pay three or five hundred taels, otherwise his family would be embarrassed to take it out!"

After Zhang Jie finished speaking, he saw that the little aunt was full of resentment and said: "You just treat me as a cow envoy, and I can't carry a few hundred taels of silver!" ”
