On the night of the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the grandparents, aunts and aunts were all invited by Lu Dingwu to their house to have a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner together.

During the meal, the grandparents prepared New Year's money for Jiacheng, and each gave Jiacheng five yuan. Jiacheng couldn't close his mouth with a smile. But for her granddaughter, there is no indication. Jiaxin knows that she is sixteen years old, so naturally she is no longer suitable for New Year's money, but it is one thing to give it or not, and it is another thing to give it or not!

Jiaxin doesn't care, five yuan, to put it mildly, she can't look down on it at all! But I can't be so non-existent.

She got up and went back to the room, and then returned to the dinner table with a large handful of money in her hand.

"Jiacheng, this is the New Year's money that my sister gave you, not much, fifty yuan!" Jiaxin handed the money to Jiacheng from the top of the table in front of everyone!

Mu Chunhua was a little angry, frowning and reminding Jiaxin: "Jiacheng is still young, what do you want so much money for?" ”

Jiaxin thought about it, so before Jiacheng took the fifty yuan, he put the money in Mu Chunhua's hand: "Mom, then you can keep it for him first, and when school starts, buy some stationery or something." ”

Although Jiaxin kept talking all the time, she had been observing the attitudes of her grandmother and father.

Grandma sat on the top three, her eyes glanced at Jiaxin's hand from time to time, and said in a weird way: "Our Jiaxin is really a businessman!" It's only been a little more than a month, and you can make so much money, that's right, after getting married, shaving someone's head or something, can be regarded as a livelihood! ”

Jiaxin ignored her and gave the rest of the money in her hand to Mu Chunhua: "Mom, this money is for you, you have helped me a lot in Yilayue, take it, it's spring, buy a few clothes!" ”

Mu Chunhua resolutely refused. Jiaxin does not force it, and it will be a long time to come.

"Come, come, eat, eat!" Jiaxin stood up, filled her grandfather with wine, and when she poured wine for her grandmother, after saying a few auspicious words for the New Year, she asked as if she had just remembered, "What did grandma say just now?" Let me open a shop, won't you? Not bad, not bad, good idea! But that's going to be a few years away. ”

The aunt asked puzzledly: "Why is it that in a few years, you are now very famous in this area, I see that if you open a shop in the town, the business will definitely be booming!" ”

"Auntie, you don't know anything! I'm going to school after the New Year, and I've earned enough bride price, but my dad promised me that if the bride price is enough, he won't let me get married! "Jiaxin eats with relish, and the head of the story is the way!

Grandma's face suddenly darkened. Jiaxin saw through it at a glance, and her grandmother still wanted her to marry.

Grandma asked quietly: "Five thousand yuan is not a small amount, I don't think there are many people every day, you really make so much?" ”

"Is this still fake?" Jia Xin was triumphant, looked at the people at the table, and calculated an account for them: "It's this heavy snow that helped me, grandma, don't you know, there are five or six hundred people in our Lujiaao alone, and only my dad and my grandfather didn't use me to cut their hair in the whole village, so in our village alone, I earned more than a thousand yuan!" ”

The more Lu Dingwu listened, the more he felt embarrassed, earning his own people's money and bringing it to the table and saying: "What do you have to be proud of, those people, either your uncles and aunts, or your aunts and uncles, are not your classmates, or people who are younger than you, earn their money, you are so happy?" ”

"Shouldn't I be happy?" Lu Jiaxin put down the chopsticks in her hand and looked at Lu Dingwu and her grandmother: "Of course I have to be happy, because money is a good thing, otherwise, you and grandma will sell me for 5,000 yuan?" ”

With a "snap", Lu Dingwu slapped his chopsticks on the table: "You are endless, the New Year's Eve, you are sincerely uncomfortable, right?" ”

Jiaxin was not annoyed, nor was she afraid, just Mu Chunhua brought the dumplings, she sandwiched a few dumplings for Lu Dingwu and comforted her in the bowl: "Dad, don't be angry!" Eat dumplings, pure meat filling, this is the meat you bought last time you stole my 500 yuan! ”

"Lu Jiaxin..."Lu Dingwu stared at her viciously.

"I said it wrong!" Jia Xin didn't smile: "You bought it with your own money!" ”

Seeing that a few people didn't move their chopsticks, Jiaxin said again: "Hurry up and eat, this is what my mother and I have been wrapping for two hours, grandma, you said you wouldn't come to help!" ”

Grandma's face was already ugly as if it was hanging a layer of ash, but she still squeezed out a smile, "Eat, eat!" ”

A good Chinese New Year's Eve meal was stirred by Jiaxin, the taste was the same as chewing wax, and after the hastily ended, the grandparents and aunts all returned home!

In fact, Jiaxin didn't make so much money at all, she only had a pair of hands, even if she didn't sleep, how much could she cut in a month, and how much could she perm? The reason why she is so swaggering today is to try the attitude of her father and grandmother!

Things were as Jiaxin expected, she clearly said that she had earned enough bride price money, but their attitude did not back down in the slightest, but became more and more resolute. I'm afraid that they and the Bai family have some kind of plans, but thinking about it, it's nothing more than money that can make them so ruthless!

The one who should come will come after all, early in the morning on the eighth day of the new year, Lu Dingwu got up very early, changed into clean clothes, cleaned the yard, and instructed Mu Chunhua to clean up the house.

Sure enough, as soon as breakfast was over, two tractors were parked at the door, and there were a lot of people pulling tobacco, alcohol, tea, sugar, meat, etc. on the tractors!

Among those people, Jia Xin recognized the person she was going to marry at a glance. Dress very decently. In his early twenties, he was a little restrained when he entered the house, and his eyes kept looking for Jiaxin's figure!

Then the villagers in the village appeared one by one, as well as the relatives of my father and grandmother, who also came one after another! Looking at her eyes, it was an indescribable feeling. Let's say sympathy, it's not all, let's say congratulations, it's a little embarrassing!

If Jia Xin didn't understand what was going on at this time, then she really lived in vain.

Mu Chunhua was holding a swill scoop in her hand, and the black apron was still on her waist, she greeted those people, and then came to Jiaxin's side and asked in a low voice, "Why are so many people here all of a sudden?" ”

Jia Xin sneered: "Naturally, it's for me to get engaged!" ”

Mu Chunhua took a long breath, "How do you know?" ”

Jia Xin pointed to the gate, "Don't believe it, you go and ask my dad, didn't he go to invite my grandma and grandpa?" ”

"This one who has received a thousand knives is hiding this from me!" Mu Chunhua angrily threw the swill scoop into the swill bucket.

In fact, Mu Chunhua already had an appointment in her heart, she just couldn't believe it. At this moment, her heart has already reached her throat.

Jia Xin went back to her room, took out the bag of money, distributed a few copies, and then stayed in the room and didn't go out!

About ten o'clock, grandma came in, holding a new set of clothes in her hand, put them on Jiaxin's bed, and said with a smile: "Jiaxin, we discussed with the man, today is the eighth day of the new year, it is a good day, first pass the ceremony, the wedding day is set on the sixth day of the next month!" You see, this is the new clothes that the man bought for you, how beautiful it is, you change it first, the guests are waiting, you go out, hand over the gift to the descendant, and this thing is done! ”

Jia Xin glanced at the dress, the water was red and the water was red, very festive. But he was unmoved, and kept tinkering with the walkman he borrowed from his aunt.

Seeing that Jiaxin didn't speak, grandma continued: "Jiaxin, we have talked about this before, you can't change the hexagram temporarily, this person is here, you, the protagonist, are always hiding in the room, you can't talk about it!" ”

"Grandma, I said I wouldn't marry, do you and my dad really want to force me like this?" Jia Xin got up and looked at the grandmother in front of her, and couldn't help but think of her mother-in-law in her previous life, they belonged to the same kind of people, looking kind and kind, but in fact her heart was like a snake and scorpion!

Grandma pretended to be stupid: "You earn money to earn money, we don't want this money, you take it yourself!" As long as I can find you a good family, it's easy to say whether it's money or not! Besides, it's not a matter of time before a girl gets married, the man's family said that with your craft, after you get married, it won't be a problem for you to open a shop in the city. You say, who can be so rich now? Be content. ”

Almost everything grandma said put Jiaxin's interests first, but what the truth is, Jiaxin is clear.

"Grandma, do you like that offspring?" Jia Xin is kind and seductive.

"I like it, you see his thick eyebrows, big eyes and high nose bridge, how energetic." Grandma was full of praise.

"Are you optimistic about your family background?"

"It doesn't get much better than that."

"Character is okay?"

"A rare good family within a radius of dozens of miles!"

"Good!" Jiaxin applauded: "In this case, it is better to let the second aunt marry." I told my dad a long time ago, I'm still young, and now the main task is to study, the second aunt is twenty years old, I, as a niece, can't get married in front of my aunt first, and watch her become an old girl, you just said, you are very satisfied with the man's family, so you see, a ready-made marriage, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! Don't miss it! ”

With a bang, Lu Dingwu pushed the door in and said to his grandmother: "Mom, you go out to entertain the guests first, don't let people wait." I'll tell her! ”

Grandma snorted and left.

Jiaxin looked at Lu Dingwu, this man is his father, but in order to get her married, he really did everything. It is said that parents and children are fate, but now it seems that she has no chance to be a father and daughter with him for a lifetime!

"Dad, how can you talk without words?" There were already tears in Jiaxin's eyes, "I've earned enough money, five thousand yuan, I'll give you a lot of money." Even so, do you want me to get married? ”

"Jiaxin!" This is the first time Lu Dingwu has called her name so kindly: "Obedient, don't compete, I'm not talking and not talking, I promised you at the time, but it was to stabilize your emotions!" You are a girl, after all, you have to get married, this matter, sooner rather than later, you look at the women here, which one is not going to nest in this ravine and face the loess for a lifetime? ”

"Count me in!" Jia Xin choked.

"You just accept your fate!" Lu Dingwu said.

Why! She had already confessed her life once, and there would never be a second time.
