Twenty-three: It is difficult to chase the horse after a word

On the day when the matchmaker went to Yanziji Town to give a bride price to Wang Mingming's family, two cars came, and the people who came got out of the car set off firecrackers. The whole town came to see the excitement.

The neighbors were amazed when they saw the bride price taken from the car, and the women were envious, not only in large quantities, but also in high class.

That person saw that Wang Mingming's family had received the bride price and came the next day, and the followers he brought did not come directly to the house like in the past. They did not dare to come in, but they were all at the gate.

When he entered the door and saw Wang Mingming's father, he politely invited Wang Mingming's father to sit on the upper seat. He bowed to Wang Mingming's father in a proper manner.

He handed the IOU for the payment, that is, the mortgage contract, to Wang Mingming's father.

Wang Mingming's father said: "You have given me the mortgage contract now, aren't you afraid that I will regret it." What will you do if I tear up the mortgage contract and return the bride price! ”

He said: "I trusted you and I to do this, we didn't know each other for a day, I know you as a person." You are a man who stands up to the sky and the earth, and you are a character on the side of Yanziji.

"The matchmaker asked someone to inquire about your daughter, and she is the one who speaks the same thing. She does things with credibility, and she won't do it if you tell her to do it. ”

Wang Mingming's father originally wanted to try him, but he didn't expect him to be so good at life. The words are pleasant to hear.

Before leaving, he said: "After the wedding, I will send you a batch of goods to help you make your business bigger." Wang Mingming's father was very surprised when he heard this. I didn't know what to say for a while.

Before leaving, he gave Wang Mingming's father a large envelope, which was a thick stack of money. Wang Mingming's father refused to accept it. He said, "No, there is no such etiquette. ”

He said: "Money is needed for happy events, so take it quickly." This is a little bit of filial piety on my part, as it should be. I'll pick you up in a few days and go to Xinjiekou to buy clothes.

"I'll tell you in advance before I come." After he finished speaking, he forced the money into Wang Mingming's father's hands. He bowed again and again, and walked away very humbly.

The mother said to Wang Mingming: "Your father happily told me that this person is quick to do things and speaks, and there is hope for our family's future life." His daughter was relieved to marry him.

"Mom didn't expect that family to be very reputable. Be straightforward and kind. I heard that the way his family earns money is to mobilize the active surnames of his subordinates to earn money for his family.

"What a good family. You can't afford to lose if you get married. If you raise a fat boy again in the coming year, your worth will not be ordinary. The family business will be inherited by your son. ”

Wang Mingming said, "Mom, what are you talking about?" How can you keep your eyes on other people's family business, it's shameful. Don't talk like that in the future. will be looked down upon. ”

My mother smiled and said, "You should speak and do things according to your own ideas, say what you should say, and care what others say." Those who are afraid of wolves and tigers can't do great things.

"Your man is just older, and other conditions are enviable. The girl's family is married, and there is nothing to be picky about marrying a chicken and a dog and marrying a dog.

"Mom hopes that when you arrive at your husband's house, you will look at the good of others, don't look for other people's stubble, Mom doesn't want you to raise your eyebrows, but you must serve your husband well and respect your mother-in-law.

"You have to listen to your mother, don't play with the lady's temper. Don't be jealous of the second room of the big house......"

Mother said so many nice things, Wang Mingming still pretended to be hostile to that man in his heart. No matter how good his family is, no matter how good his personality is, he was forced to marry him after all.

But it is not good to regret having promised to marry, it is difficult to chase after a horse, and a manly man should be the same when he speaks.

In the future, as long as the man is good to himself, the old woman is reasonable, and the eldest wife and the second wife don't play bad eyes, it's good to have a good life.

She nodded in agreement to her mother, and said, "Mom, I remember what you said, and you put a hundred hearts." I will not embarrass you. ”

The car sedan chair came, the firecrackers at the door rang out, and the drummers blew and played lively. My father was wearing a suit that Wang Ming had never seen.

Wang Mingming said: "Dad, your suit is so good." It's so stylish to wear on your body. ”

The father looked at the suit left and right, he smiled very satisfied, and whispered to her: "It was bought by my son-in-law, a famous Western brand." ”

He bought a set of clothes for each of the family. Show his filial piety to the Venerable Master and his concern for your younger siblings. I didn't expect him to be so polite. The shot is very generous.

"I know he knows every penny in business. In his words, it is a brother who settles accounts.

"When he gives profits to customers, let them know in the open. People will feel that you are sincere and willing to do a second business with you.

"Such a good son-in-law is nowhere to be found with a lantern. I'm relieved when you get married. When you get married today, the whole family is happy for you.

"The patriarch and elders of the family also came. Be sure to go and eat your wedding wine. Your aunt and eldest cousin are here too. I will arrange for your eldest cousin to carry you on the sedan chair. ”

The eldest cousin came in, and he was taller than Wang Mingming's father. Dressed in a new robe with a top hat. Looks like the son of a rich and noble family.

Wang Mingming's aunt's house is on the shogunate mountain on the side of Shangyuan Gate. My uncle-in-law died a few years ago, and my aunt made a living by growing vegetables.

The eldest cousin said to Wang Mingming: "My husband bought all my clothes on my behalf from the inside out. That day, my uncle-in-law instructed me to carry you on the sedan chair, and I was very happy.

My husband then told me not to dress too shabby. I was shocked when I heard this. My family doesn't have the money to make me new clothes, so I'm really worried.

"My uncle-in-law saw that I was worried and said that he asked Miss Lan Ying to be your bridesmaid. Take me and Miss Lan Ying to Xinjiekou to buy clothes another day. Inside and out, it's all new.

"I thought I had misheard. My brother-in-law even bought my mother's clothes that day. Thank you so much, uncle. ”

Wang Mingming said: "Thank you, you should be." You're going to have a few more drinks today. After I get married, you are to come to my house often to visit my father and mother. ”

The eldest cousin said, "Don't worry, I will." Miss Lan Ying was listening to the matchmaker explain things outside. The new clothes that her uncle bought for her are beautiful. She waited a while and then came in.

Wang Mingming said: "I'm worried that I don't have a familiar person to accompany me." Miss Lan Ying is here, it's great. No matter how late you are today, you have to go home with Miss Lan Ying. ”

The eldest cousin said, "Definitely, definitely." Cousin rest assured. The uncle-in-law said that the car was ready. He prepared two cars, and there were six people from my house, and he sent us back after the banquet.

The uncle-in-law gave the driver the money for the car, and gave him a pack of cigarettes, a candy, and a wedding cake. They died happily and promised their uncle-in-law to send us all the way up the mountain.

"I just heard that this matchmaker is not simple, she is a person who has seen big scenes. She understands both Chinese and Western weddings.

"She said you were having a Western-style wedding this time. It is held in the cathedral of the city. It's magnificent. This kind of wedding is attended by people here for the first time. I want to go, but the road is too far. ”

The eldest cousin just said that the matchmaker came in, and she said, "The hour has come, and the bride should get on the sedan chair." Bridesmaids, come to the bride. ”

Miss Lan Ying agreed to come in. She was dressed in a brand new red dress. Wang Mingming was surprised and said, "Oops! Miss Lan Ying, you are so beautiful. ”

Miss Lan Ying's face flushed. She said: "Sister Mingming, I dare to compare with you, you are beautiful." It's simply a fairy.

"Today is your big day, I'm so glad I can be your bridesmaid. The matchmaker told me what I should do. I'll do it, if you're happy. ”

Wang Mingming hurriedly said: "Miss Lanying, don't you see me, I can't help you as my bridesmaid, I'm so happy,"

The eldest cousin said, "Cousin, when the time comes, I will carry you." Don't be afraid, I have strength. I'll carry you all the way to the car sedan chair. ”

"My cousin-in-law has scattered a lot of red envelopes and cigarettes and sweets when he came to greet him. He said that everyone who came was a guest, and he should treat him with courtesy.

"I'll carry you out, and the matchmaker will help him distribute red envelopes in front. It's going to go well. ”
