I thought I had misheard, so I asked, "What, my dowry?" ”

"You heard it right, this is your dowry."

As she spoke, she pushed the mahogany box towards me, and I was stunned, and she said, "Why, manly man, if you just finish speaking, you won't count, don't you do anything?" ”

"If you don't want to save Lin Tianjian, I won't force it, anyway, he is your grandfather, and it has nothing to do with me!" Mrs. Wang added another sentence, making a gesture to put away the mahogany box.

I immediately pressed the wooden box.

"Wait a minute."

In the countryside, it is not so easy to marry a daughter-in-law, especially in a poor and remote mountain like our Laojieling Village, the girls in this village still want to marry out, and no one wants to marry the girls outside, so when Brother Han Zi got married, the sister-in-law was beautiful, which caused such a big sensation in our village, and most of those who said bad things at the beginning were envious, jealous and hateful.

Since this thing is a dowry for marriage, the meaning of the Wang Shenpo is obvious, she wants to tell me about the family. If I can solve the major events of my life and save my grandfather, wouldn't this be the best of both worlds?

But then again, can there be such a good thing in this world?

The only thing that can be explained is that Mrs. Wang is indeed my grandmother, she just doesn't admit it, she still feels sorry for her grandson.

These thoughts flowed quickly in my mind, and I asked, "Granny Wang, do you mean to help me talk about my family, and then, you can save my grandfather?" ”

"That's right!" Mrs. Wang replied without hesitation.

I thought I had misunderstood, but I didn't expect Mrs. Wang to really mean this, so I asked again: "That...... Can you tell me whose girl she is and what kind of person she is? ”

When Mrs. Wang saw me asking this, a very subtle smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she said: "That girl's surname is Ye, and her maiden name is Weiyang, whether it is her figure or appearance, it is definitely first-class." It is no exaggeration to say that none of our ten miles and eight villages can compare with her. ”

Ye Weiyang, the name is very good.

However, it is too exaggerated for Mrs. Wang to say this, and no one in the village can compare with her, and the matchmakers in the village are not as clever as her.

As if seeing that I didn't believe me, the king said, "Son, don't believe me, what I said is all true." ”

If you really look good, you need to ask someone to go on a blind date?

I estimate that eighty percent is flawed.

Of course, I still have to accept this matter first, find a way to save my grandfather first, and talk about other things later. With this in mind, I stuffed the wooden box into my trouser pocket and said, "Okay, then I will entrust my life's affairs to Granny Wang." It is...... My grandfather is in an emergency right now, can you save him first? Don't worry, the marriage you are talking about, no matter whether the other party is mute or naïve, as long as you can save my grandfather, I will admit it! ”

Mrs. Wang looked at me, smiled again, and said, "Don't worry, she is neither dumb nor foolish, you will definitely like her when you see her." ”

"Child, if you want to save your grandfather, you must first settle your marriage. Because, it is not me who can save your grandfather, but your future daughter-in-law. Wang Shenpo added.

"She's also a goddess?" I wondered.

She shook her head and said that my future daughter-in-law is not a goddess, and in modern terms, she is a goddess who no one can compare.

Originally, I thought that I would let Mrs. Wang save my grandfather and my marriage first, and then make plans. After all, I always thought that it was impossible to be happy in a marriage without love.

However, my calculation is still wrong, Mrs. Wang is more calculating than me, she wants me to make a marriage contract before I can save my grandfather. Helpless, I asked my grandfather's situation, if it drags on, will there be any problems, Wang Shenpo said to let me rest assured, as long as it is not his limit of twenty-nine, there will be no problem, when the time comes, I set a marriage contract here, and my daughter-in-law has a cause and effect, my grandfather's affairs are all big and small things.

Regarding this 29 limit, I asked Wang Shenpo, and Wang Shenpo said that there are still seven days left. Seven days later, it was actually my eighteenth birthday.

Now I want to save my grandfather, so I say that I will give the marriage tomorrow. However, Mrs. Wang said that she had already calculated for us, and that tomorrow was not a good day for engagement, and that the good day would be seven days later, and it would be the day of the twenty-ninth limit.

So, she told me to go back and wait with peace of mind.

She also made a point of explaining that the mahogany box in my hand must not be opened before that. If the secret of heaven is revealed, when the daughter-in-law can't marry, my grandfather will also stare at each other and kick his legs, and the person will be gone.

As I was leaving, I asked Lady Wang if she had any pictures of my future daughter-in-law. Generally speaking, the blind date has a photo, but Wang Shenpo said no, and it seems that she wants to carry out this mystery to the end.

Later, Mrs. Wang gave me another amulet.

It was a yellow paper bag, folded into a triangle, strung with red strings, and she tied it to my wrist. I asked what it was for, and she said that it wouldn't be foolish again when I walked at night.

With this thing, I'm a lot bolder.

I went out to fix the bicycle and went back to the village alone. I was melancholy all the way, although I was hitched a ride on my lifelong happiness, but my grandfather's affairs were also settled.

The next day, I heard that Uncle Lao Gen was gone, and he sold his skins and exchanged a lot of money from the merchant, but he didn't have a life to spend. I heard from Uncle Gen's neighbors that yesterday evening, they saw a merchant who went to Uncle Gen's house, and after a while, Uncle Lao Gen followed the merchant away.

I remembered what the merchant said when he left, he was going to borrow water from another house, and I was afraid that he would go to Uncle Laogen's house. Niu Da Huang told me privately that the yellow skin is evil, and the merchant is not spending money to buy the yellow skin, but the life of Uncle Lao Gen.

Niu Rhubarb explained to me that in the next few days, I had to take special precautions against the merchant, and on weekdays, don't open the door, especially in the evening or when it is cloudy.

These seven days have been a long time.

The corpse spots on my grandfather's body are also increasing day by day.

Niu Rhubarb later changed to a purple-black pill for my grandfather to hold, and it seemed to have a slight effect, and the growth rate of the corpse spots slowed down.

On several occasions, I tried to open the mahogany box to see what it contained, but I couldn't help it.

After all, this is a matter of life and death for my grandfather, and it is not a child's play.

At the same time, I can't help but imagine, what kind of daughter-in-law did Goddess Wang introduce to me? Is it really as the king goddess said, it looks like a country and a city?

I don't think it's possible, really that good, to be my turn as a guy in a poor mountain nest?

Mrs. Wang told me about the matchmaker, and she didn't particularly emphasize that she had to keep it secret. When Niu Rhubarb asked me, I didn't hide it, he just nodded slightly, as if he was not very surprised.

He said, "After all, it's your grandmother, or yours!" ”

But the second fat came to my house to play, and when he heard that I was going to get engaged, he laughed like a fart. He also said that I didn't have any hair, so I had a daughter-in-law, and let me have a baby with my daughter-in-law, so he would be an uncle.

I kicked him, he touched his buttocks, and muttered again, saying that Mrs. Wang was mysterious all day long, and she had a close relationship with the Taoist aunt of Baiqingguan in the county, how could she change her career to a matchmaker now?

At this point, Er Fat suddenly thought of something, and he said, "Boss, the daughter-in-law that Mrs. Wang told you won't be the sister-in-law in Bai Qingguan, right?" Think about it, if you really told her, she is so good-looking, can she be a bargaining chip to save your grandfather? I think it must be Bai Qingguan's sister-in-law who wants to return to the vulgar and start a family, and found Mrs. Wang, but Mrs. Wang can't refuse, just right, your little fresh meat is sent to the door, and she begs her, she just happens to be a favor. ”

Erfat's reasoning made me speechless, and I suddenly felt confused.

It's not that I have any prejudice against the sister-in-law in Baiqingguan, it's just that my grandfather took me to Baiqingguan to burn incense, and there are all forty or fifty-year-old sisters-in-law, which is really very inappropriate!

It is said that growing pains, I didn't expect me to encounter such tricky troubles so quickly.

I feel like my life has fallen into a trough all of a sudden.

I asked Niu Rhubarb, Niu Rhubarb held the cigarette pouch pot, smiled forward and back, he touched my head, and said let me rest assured, the daughter-in-law Wang Shenpo found for me is older than me, but it should not be so much older.

Is this reassuring?

Seven days have passed, and during this period, it is okay, grandpa's condition is quite stable, and the merchant who borrowed water has not come back.

According to the agreement, early in the morning seven days later, I went to the house of Wang Shenpo in Dongwa Village. I asked Mrs. Wang, since it is an engagement, do I want to prepare some engagement bonuses and gifts or something, just with such a small wooden box in my hand, I am afraid it is too stingy. Mrs. Wang said no, she has already prepared for me here.

I asked Mrs. Wang, where is the girl's house, and I don't have any other relatives at home, so now I can only accompany me to the engagement as an elder.

But the king said, "Don't worry, we'll talk about it in the evening."

"Engaged at night, Granny Wang, isn't that appropriate?" I thought that Mrs. Wang was wrong, so I asked.

The goddess Wang asked rhetorically, "What's inappropriate?" Son, I'll give you two a tie tonight. ”

"Huh?"

"What's so strange about that? The time is right, so that you can live a harmonious life in the future, husband and wife and beauty, this is all for your good! Wang Shenpo said.

Well, I can't refute this, after all, I don't understand this kind of yin and yang divination.

Later, when Mrs. Wang took me to count the engagement bonuses and engagement gifts, I was completely confused. At this point, I can understand that Mrs. Wang hates my grandfather so much, but why can this marriage become a bargaining chip to save my grandfather!
