Chapter 119: Dowry

After some discussion, Zhang Hao was assigned to the side room where he lived before, Lin Xiaodan still lived in the master bedroom, and Chen Jianshe lived in the half of the hall that was assigned to them at the beginning, but Zhang Hao and Lin Xiaodan asked each of them to give him 10 catties of wheat as compensation.

The rest of the stuff is divided into three equal portions, and the kitchen and toilet are shared.

In this way, Zhang Hao and Li Zhi lived together directly, even if they were married.

What Li Zhi didn't know was that with Zhang Hao, who didn't have any family background and income, her hard life was still to come.

And Zhang Hao, no matter what happened to them, it couldn't affect the good mood of Xie Xiaonian and the others, and they were looking at the prey in the trap excitedly at this time.

"Xiao Nian, great, we finally caught the big guy." Li Pearl looked at the prey in the trap and jumped and jumped excitedly.

Because the depth of the place they went to was not as deep as when Xie Xiaonian was in the east before, they usually encountered small things, and it was the first time they encountered prey of more than 10 catties, so it was no wonder that Li Pearl was so happy.

"Xiao Nian, what is this, I don't even know it, is it a deer?" Liu Yifan looked at the white spots on the animal's body and asked uncertainly.

"It's not a deer, it's a roe deer." Xie Xiaonian himself saw the roe deer for the first time, but fortunately, the original owner had seen it.

"Roe deer? What is it, can you eat it? "Li Pearl doesn't care what kind of animal this is, for her, whether she can eat it or not is the most important thing.

"Of course you can eat it, it's not common, if you sell it, you can sell it for a lot of money just for fur and meat, if it's a male, it's worth even more." Xie Xiaonian said while getting the roe deer from the trap with Liu Yifan.

"Why is the male more valuable?" Li Pearl carried forward his studious spirit and asked if he didn't understand.

"Musk has heard of it, it is obtained from the male roe deer."

"Really, let's see if this head is male." Li Pearl urged.

"We were lucky today, it was a male." Xie Xiaonian was not shy, and after observing, he said directly.

"Then let's not eat it, let's sell it for money, it's enough for us to have pheasants and hares." Li Pearl and the others built a kitchen and latrine last time, plus added all kinds of things, and they had already spent almost all the money that the two of them brought from home, so after hearing that they could sell it for money, they directly thought about selling it.

"But we secretly beat it, and we don't have a certificate from the brigade, and the supply and marketing cooperatives won't accept it." Liu Yifan thinks more than Li Pearl.

"If you agree to sell, I can find someone to help sell it privately, and then the old rules, let's divide it equally, how about it?" Xie Xiaonian said.

"Okay, but you won't get caught, right?" Li Pearl said worriedly.

"Don't worry, it's okay, I know it in my heart, if you agree, put the roe de in my back basket, I'll carry it now, it's hot, don't let it break."

"Okay, let's sell it, but can you carry it, do you want me to come with you?" Liu Yifan said.

"No, this kind of thing, the less people involved, the better, you can do what you have to do on this mountain, I can go myself." Xie Xiaonian said.

It's not that Xie Xiaonian doesn't trust them, but Xie Xiaonian is going to take this thing to his uncle's house and ask his eldest cousin to help him sell it to his classmates.

The eldest cousin's classmates specialize in this kind of business, and usually the prey that the eldest cousin catches will be secretly sold to him, so Xie Xiaonian is still very relieved, at least he will not suffer a loss, and it is relatively safe.

Since he was going to his uncle's house, he couldn't go empty-handed, so Xie Xiaonian was ready to take the 2 catties of preserved fruits he made and a catty of dried raisins with him, and when the time came, he would just say that he bought them at the supply and marketing cooperative.

Then Xie Xiaonian caught a pheasant and a hare, loaded 50 eggs, and went home to secretly take the bicycle out, and then went to his uncle's house.

When he arrived at his uncle's house, Xie Xiaonian saw from a distance that the eldest concubine, the second concubine and the four cousins-in-law were all at the door of the eldest concubine's house, making quilts.

And several people also saw Xie Xiaonian, put down the needle and thread in their hands one after another, and stood up, while several children rushed to this side.

When the eldest concubine saw that Xie Xiaonian was behind the bicycle with two back baskets, she knew that Xie Xiaonian must have brought something over, and she was afraid that she would be seen by others, so she quickly let Xie Xiaonian into the yard and took the back basket into the house.

"Big concubine, a roe deer fell from the trap we dug today, I thought this thing was valuable, so I brought it and wanted my eldest cousin to help me sell it." Xie Xiaonian said directly after entering the house.

"Okay, boss, you go and call the boss back." After listening to Xie Xiaonian's words, the eldest concubine immediately said.

Then when he saw the things in Xie Xiaonian's other basket, he couldn't help but nag Xie Xiaonian, asking her not to bring any more things, and there was nothing missing at home.

However, although Xie Xiaonian accepted it with an open mind, he decided not to change it in the future, and there was no way for the eldest concubine to do so at that time.

Xie Xiaonian looked at a group of children at the door, all looked at him with blank eyes, and took out preserved fruits and raisins from the back basket with a smile for them to eat.

A group of children were almost crazy with joy when they saw that it was preserved fruit and raisins, and several leather boys jumped up with joy.

When the eldest concubine saw that it was preserved fruit and raisins, she immediately said: "You kid, how can you buy such a precious thing, why do you still bring it over, why don't you keep it for yourself." ”

After speaking, he snatched the preserved fruits and raisins in Xie Xiaonian's hand and prepared to put them away.

Xie Xiaonian hurriedly stopped: "Don't, this was originally used for the children to eat, what are you doing when you put it away." ”

Saying that, Xie Xiaonian took the things back again and divided them among the children.

After the separation, Xie Xiaonian quickly opened the topic and asked, "What about my uncle and cousins, why aren't they at home, it's such a hot day, can't they go to work?" ”

When several people heard this, they all laughed at Xie Xiaonian, and then heard the second concubine say with a smile: "They are all in my house, and they will give you a dowry." ”

"Ah, the dowry?" Xie Xiaonian said in surprise.

"It's not the dowry, you kid, you don't even remember your own affairs, it's late July now, just take advantage of the slack now, hurry up and give you the dowry, or you won't have time to do it if you are busy in the field for a while." The second concubine smiled and continued.

Xie Xiaonian's face turned red after hearing this, and then he was moved.

At this time, the furniture is to be made, almost no finished products are sold, so the family who wants to marry their daughter will make the furniture in advance, and if someone in the family knows how to carpenter, they will go up the mountain in advance to cut the wood, put it at home to dry, and then make it at home when the farm is not working.

If there is no carpenter in the family, the wood will be prepared in advance, and the carpenter will be invited to the house to help make the furniture, and then give some money for the handiwork.

And Xie Xiaonian knew that his third cousin had learned carpentry before, so it was normal to do it himself.

However, the eldest uncle and second uncle are so old, and they still help a few cousins on a hot day to help him make furniture, can Xie Xiaonian not be moved.

And the most popular here is "36 legs", the so-called "36 legs" refers to a decent set of furniture, with a square table, four chairs, a double bed, a large wardrobe, a writing desk, and a dining cupboard, and Xie Xiaonian knows that according to her uncle's family's kindness to her, and the Xu family has been divided, they will definitely prepare no less than "36 legs".

These things should have been prepared by Father Xie's help, but now that the farm is slack, Father Xie goes out to play cards every day, and never thought of making furniture for himself and preparing a dowry.

If her uncle's family hadn't prepared, then Xie Xiaonian wouldn't have any dowry at all except for the dowry given by the Xu family, and she would definitely be ridiculed at that time.

Even the poorest family in the village would make two boxes when they married their daughter, but Xie's father didn't have any preparations.

Father Xie's attitude really hurt Xie Xiaonian, originally Xie Xiaonian felt that Father Xie had treated her a lot better recently, and thought that after so many things, Father Xie had changed, but I didn't expect it to be just good on the surface, in fact, Father Xie never really thought about himself.

Xie Xiaonian was born recently, and the trace of family affection for Father Xie has been completely consumed at this moment, I am afraid that no matter what Father Xie does in the future, Xie Xiaonian will not waver in any way.

Then Xie Xiaonian remembered the red quilt that was being made outside the door, and said, "Won't the quilt made outside also be prepared for me?" ”

"That's right, a total of 6 pairs of quilts have been prepared for you, you can see if you like it later, this is the most popular quilt in the city." The second cousin-in-law said.

"Of course I like it, thank you, if you didn't help me prepare, I don't know what I would have done then." Xie Xiaonian said movingly.

"Family, thank you, this is all for you, don't you always send anything delicious here?" The eldest concubine continued.

"That's it," the others chimed in.

Xie Xiaonian didn't know what to say at this time, except for being moved, and he didn't know how much it would cost his uncle's family to prepare these things.

However, if he gave money, it would definitely hurt their hearts, so Xie Xiaonian decided that he would get more things in the future to repay his uncle's family.

Then I heard the eldest concubine continue: "Some time ago, Xu Zhongjun and his eldest sister came to the house and gave 50 yuan, saying that they were afraid that your family would not give you small things, so I asked me to help you buy some bits and pieces for marriage, and said that Xu Zhongjun specially sent a letter to arrange for her." This little baby of the Xu family, I really didn't misunderstand him, you will marry in the future, and you will not be afraid of suffering. And their family has also prepared 6 pairs of quilts, so that even if they have children in the future, they will be enough to cover. ”

"That's it, I also think that the kid of the Xu family is good, and his family is also separated, and his mother is also a good person, this family can't be wrong." The second concubine also said with satisfaction.

"That's it, that's it." Several cousins-in-law also echoed and joked with Xie Xiaonian.
