Thirty-eighth: Go to Gu Nianyuan to talk about marriage?
"Hmm... Miao Miao is right... You still have to ask Brother Yuan first, listen to what he says and then reply to others, after all, this marriage is not a trivial matter, it is a matter of Brother Yuan'er for a lifetime. ”
Qingniang woke up a little like a dream when she heard Miaomiao's words, no matter how rich the dowry was, it still depended on Brother Yuan'er's own opinion.
I have to say that although Qingniang has many flaws in her personality, in terms of respecting children, not to mention that most parents in ancient and modern times are not as good as her.
Li is a representative of more traditional parents, thinking that children must listen to adults, and adults are good for you, so she doesn't understand Qingniang's thoughts very much.
"This marriage has always been the words of the matchmaker at the behest of the parents, where does Brother Yuan understand this, or we elders have to make decisions for him."
"If you want me to talk about such a good marriage, I will directly respond to it, in case it drags on for a long time, people are no longer willing, and there will be no such shop in this village..."
Li wanted to persuade again, but was persuaded by Butcher Mo.
"Okay, what Miaomiao and Qingniang said actually makes some sense, Brother Yuan is also our eldest since childhood, if we are good at making decisions about his temperament, he won't like it anymore, it's really a problem."
"When something happens, the marriage will turn into a feud." Butcher Mo changed his words and comforted his wife again.
"However, what your mother said is not unreasonable. This family business was originally our high climbing, and we didn't reply for a long time. It's possible that people are angry and unwilling. By the way, how long will it take for Brother Yuan to go home? ”
"Before we came, my brother had just left home, and the academy had a holiday once a month or so, and it was estimated that it would be a long time before he came back." Seeing Qingniang's stunned appearance, Miao Miao hurriedly answered Butcher Mo's question.
"It's definitely not going to work for so long, or Qingniang, you should go directly to the town to find Brother Yuan'er and ask!" Li is a little anxious, after such a long time, the family affair will definitely be yellow.
"What your mother said makes sense, in this way, don't go home for the two of you. I'll accompany you directly to the academy. Ask Brother Yuan what he thinks about this family matter, and give a quick answer to others. ”
"It just so happens that your eldest brother and sister-in-law and their family will come back from the town tomorrow, I guess they will definitely rent a car and come back, so let's take that car." Butcher Mo made a resolute decision, and tomorrow he will take the car to Gu Nianyuan to ask for answers.
"It's hard work Dad, just do what Dad said." Li Shi Mo Butcher said this, and Qing Niang had no opinion, so she nodded directly in agreement.
After breakfast the next morning, for fear of being scolded again, Mo Lao Er was busy pulling his daughter-in-law and son to the ground. In fact, Li usually goes to the ground with everyone.
But because Miaomiao and they were there, Li was thinking about the marriage in his heart and wanted to have a good chat with his daughter. If you go to the town to find Gu Nianyuan, if Gu Nianyuan doesn't agree, let her daughter persuade him more.
Because of this, the Li family did not go to the ground, but accompanied Miaomiao and Qingniang at home.
Instead, he said that he would take Qingniang and them to the Mo butcher in the town, but he was not at home, but left early. Mainly because Butcher Mo had agreed with people before that he was going to help today.
And according to the actions of Mo Lao's family before, Mo Butcher estimated. Why don't they get home until noon? And the job that Butcher Mo took is estimated to not take that long, and Butcher Mo came back when the car arrived home.
Sure enough, as Butcher Mo expected, when Butcher Mo came back from the family where he worked, Boss Mo's family still did not come back.
Butcher Mo took advantage of the fact that the car had not arrived, so he took the time to briefly freshen up and change into clean clothes. The Li family was not idle, regardless of Qingniang's obstruction, and packed a lot of food for Gu Nianyuan.
After waiting for a while, the Mo family arrived late in the donkey cart. Butcher Mo hurriedly stepped forward to stop the chauffeur who was leaving.
"The eldest sister is back with Miaomiao!"
"Huh? Father! Is there something you're holding back this donkey cart? Mo Da and Qing Niang Miaomiao smiled and said hello, and saw that Butcher Mo's actions were a little puzzled.
"I accompanied the young lady and them to the county seat to do something." There are outsiders, and Butcher Mo vaguely brought what he wanted to do.
Butcher Mo can be said to have accumulated prestige at home for a long time, and when I heard him say this, my boss didn't ask any more questions. Boss Mo's daughter-in-law didn't dare to say anything sour in front of Butcher Mo, and smiled and greeted her son and Qingniang Miaomiao.
Because the coachman was still waiting for someone, everyone didn't talk much and exchanged pleasantries for a while. Picking up the things prepared by the Li family, Butcher Mo took Miaomiao and Qingniang to the car.
"My mother really loves my eldest sister, and I have prepared so many things for my eldest sister! What kind of good stuff are they? Seeing that the donkey cart was gradually moving away, and finally disappeared, Boss Mo's daughter-in-law spoke in a weird manner.
"Okay, it's not easy for the eldest sister to be widowed with two children, so let's help if we can." Boss Mo is not bad, and when he heard his wife's dissatisfaction, he persuaded him to make peace.
Seeing the performance of the eldest son, Li's eyes softened a lot. It seems that the boss is a good one, not the same as the second one who has no conscience. However, the eldest daughter-in-law is a troublemaker and needs to be beaten more.
"What's good? It's just some mountain goods and fruits. And the eldest daughter-in-law, have you been a little dissatisfied with me lately and want to rebel? I'm telling you, it's not your turn to be in this family, take care of yourself, don't stare at me all day long! ”
After saying this, without waiting for the other party to respond, Li turned his head directly and went back to the courtyard.
"I didn't mean that... My mother misunderstood me. Boss Mo and his daughter-in-law, who were left behind, glanced at each other, saw that her husband's face was not good, and she looked at herself with some accusations, and Boss Mo's daughter-in-law made a look of grievance.
"It's not the best, you don't say more of that kind of yin and yang weird words in the future, and you won't make your mother angry!" After talking about his wife, Boss Mo also entered the hospital, leaving Boss Mo's daughter-in-law in the same place with an indignant face.
Ignorant of the series of things that happened after he left, Miaomiao began to doubt her life when she was bumped up in the car.
Unlike the flat road from Miaomiao's village to the town, the road from Mojia Village to the town is very rough, and it is even more bumpy to sit on the donkey cart.
Fortunately, the road to the town was closer than the village of Big Willow, and it took less than an hour to reach the town.
The place where Gu Nianyuan studied was not allowed to drive the donkey cart in, and when they arrived at the street, they asked the driver to wait at the intersection for a while, and Miaomiao and their group got out of the car with their things.
After Miaomiao and the others got out of the car, they had to walk a not too short way to get to the place where Gu Nianyuan was studying.
The alley where Gu Nianyuan studied is called Wuche Street, which is taken from the allusion of "learning rich and five cars". This street was not called this name at first, but also because there were more and more scholars on this street, and there were more and more small academies that taught, and later everyone called this street Wuche Street.
Wuche Street is not just a street as literally, it actually encompasses a large area. There are many alleys and open spaces here that belong to Wuche Street.
In addition to many large and small academies, there are also many families in these alleys of Wuche Street. However, most of the people living in this neighborhood are studying in nearby colleges, which is actually a modern kind of school district house.
