Chapter 55: Saying Relatives (Recommended and Updated)
Du Shi poured a large basin of cold water on his sister-in-law mercilessly, "Don't make up your mind, there are only two daughters in his family, the eldest one has already been married, and the younger one is less than three years old." ”
Du's sister-in-law couldn't help but look regretful, "That's really a pity." ”
"Who's to say it isn't." Du Shi is also very regretful - she knew that the Ming family had such a good day today, so she asked Ming Ju to help her son protect the media.
Isn't it that if you give birth to a son, you have to have a mother's surname, since you have a family property, then her family can also agree! Her family and the Ming family are still relatives, isn't it much better to match her son-in-law than to match the fatherless and motherless child?
She heard that the Ming family's good life now is all brought by Mingyue's girl, and that girl is simply a cash cow.
She was thinking about it when she heard her sister-in-law mutter, "Why does Yan still have a box of silver?" Your mother-in-law is too much, it's good to have the silver to put two acres of mountain land for your children and grandchildren! ”
Du Shi came back to his senses, "That's the bride price given by the Li family." ”
"What? Did your mother-in-law return the bride price back to the Li family? ”
"It's not that it's returned, it's given to Youyan as a dowry." Du Shi was also dissatisfied with this matter, but with Mrs. Zheng and her man pressing on her head, no matter how dissatisfied she was, she could only mumble to her sister-in-law.
"Those things sent by the Li family, except for food, all the other mother-in-laws brought them to Youyan. Twenty taels of dowry, a full set of silver jewelry, and fabrics sent by the Li family, my mother-in-law also asked Youyan to make new clothes and bring them back to the Li family. ”
And their Zheng family, in addition to eating, also left a few strips of rags that could barely be used to hold the corners of the soles of their shoes.
"My God." Du's sister-in-law couldn't control her voice, she was distressed and remorseful, "I knew this was the case, how good it would be for us to let your nephew marry Yanya." ”
Du Shi wanted to roll his eyes, "Do you think my old lady can take a fancy to our eldest or our second lang?" ”
Her sister-in-law suddenly fell silent.
Her two sons can't say badly, it's just that one is a little wooden, one is too flexible, the one is not capable and not very good at talking, and he can choke to death as soon as he opens his mouth, and the flexible one can talk, but he is a little lazy to eat.
Of course, this is her evaluation of her two sons from the perspective of her mother, if she were someone else, she would not have said it so tactfully... Polite.
***
Seeing Zheng Youyan away, Mingju's mother's family, including Minghe and Chen Bai, was arranged by Mrs. Zheng to a table specially prepared for them.
There are only a dozen people from the Ming family at this table, and no one else grabs vegetables to eat, and the Ming family will undoubtedly eat this meal worry-free and clean.
However, as soon as everyone sat down, Gorou had already trotted over to Mrs. Ming and bit her ear, "Milk, I heard my cousin and her second aunt say..."
Ming He, who happened to be sitting next to Mrs. Ming, couldn't help but listen with his ears, but after listening, he couldn't say a word with a face.
Mrs. Ming patted her grandson's little shoulder, "If you didn't hear it, don't tell your aunt." ”
Gorou said "oh" and ran back to his mother, "Mother, mother, I want to eat that meatball." ”
Zhou was very curious about what kind of report he made to Mrs. Ming, but now was obviously not a good time to ask her son to get to the bottom of it, she glanced at the relatives and neighbors of the Zheng family who were making a lot of noise, and then silently swallowed her curiosity back into her stomach.
***
In Shen Shizhong, the members of the Ming family returned to Wulitun in their own ox cart, and Ming Ju and Chen Bai were sent back to their own homes in the town by Ming Di in the ox cart.
By the way, Mingdi also brought a lot of dumplings, tofu, and sauerkraut to his sister and brother-in-law.
"Bright moon, bright moon." Seeing off Ming Ju and Chen Bai, Mingyue was about to follow Mrs. Ming and the others back to the warm room, but Huang Xiaoying next door suddenly appeared.
The little girl stood at the door of her house and beckoned to Mingyue, but Mingyue had no choice but to raise her feet and walk over.
"Tell you something." Huang Xiaoying took Mingyue to the empty river, "I heard from my grandmother that Zhao's sister-in-law is looking for someone to come to your house to propose marriage." ”
"Zhao's maiden sister-in-law? Isn't there a grudge between their family and ours? Mingyue remembered that the Zhou family had complained, but fortunately her father married the Tao family instead of the Zhao family. She asked her milk curiously for a while, and then she realized that the Zhao family once wanted to marry Mingcheng, but was rejected by Mrs. Ming. Because of this, the Zhao family hated them for almost fifteen years.
A person who has hated your family for fifteen years suddenly wants to propose marriage to your family again, what kind of moth is this?
Huang Xiaoying pouted, "Who knows what her family thinks, saying that she wants to tell her niece to your second brother." ”
"Anyway, my grandmother won't agree to it." Although Mingyue felt that this family was really strange, she didn't take this matter seriously.
As a result, Huang Xiaoying seemed to be startled when she saw her, and threw another bomb into her arms in an instant, "Some people also told you about kissing, I heard that there is a family that is still from the town." ”
Mingyue had a headache, "Haven't I already been married?" I'm afraid these people don't have brain diseases, right? ”
Huang Xiaoying grinned, "Who made your family rich now." Don't you know, many people now say that you are blessed and wealthy. ”
Mingyue had a black line on her face, she was not a fortune boy and a fuwa, she stroked her forehead with her hand, "So these people want to get this blessing and fortune back to their own homes?" ”
Huang Xiaoying nodded like pounding garlic, "I listened to what Mrs. Wang meant, and asked her to tell you that there are three matchmakers." ”
Mingyue was no longer able to complain, "Whatever, my grandmother will definitely not agree anyway." ”
Huang Xiaoying was bored for a moment, "Why do you always say this!" ”
Mingyue patted her on the shoulder, "I have a good!" Otherwise, I'll have a bad heart. ”
Huang Xiaoying thought about it, she pouted and complained, "My grandmother is about to start kissing me, and recently she wants to detain me at home every day, alas... I won't be able to come to you all the time. ”
Mingyue's heart moved, and she comforted Huang Xiaoying, "How can you say kiss so quickly?" Your milk will definitely help you with your palms. You can still come and play with me before you settle down. ”
Huang Xiaoying suddenly became happy, "Then I can take advantage of this time to have enough fun." ”
Mingyue couldn't help laughing.
Huang Xiaoying is a diligent and capable, hearty personality, kind and enthusiastic, a little precocious but innocent peasant girl, because of her young age, she is a little playful and a little greedy, but Mingyue thinks that this Huang Xiaoying is very real and very cute.
The two muttered some more gossip before leaving the river together.
"Milk, let me tell you something." Back at home, Mingyue couldn't wait to find Mrs. Ming, and after a whisper, she whispered to Mrs. Ming, "... Do you think it will work? ”
