Chapter 37: The Boss's Family Affairs

In the rural areas of the south of the Yangtze River, young men and big girls have reached the age of talking about marriage, as long as the family conditions are still passable, there are always enthusiastic people to match:

Bringing about a marriage is tantamount to doing a great good deed!

Both men and women are grateful, and the matchmaker deepens the relationship with the two families and adds a network...

When Ning Yuanfu was 22 years old, he had not yet determined the "object", which is very abnormal in the countryside?

What's more, Ning Ming's family has long been a well-known 10,000-yuan household?

Lao Ning is not in a hurry, and it is not his turn to be in a hurry:

The son is not in a hurry to marry his wife, he is in a hurry to pick up his daughter-in-law - it's not good to say!

Mother Liu is in a hurry-

The next three sons and two girls, look at the age, although it will take a few years to start a family, but the eldest does not get married - the problem is not solved, and if she does not get off to a good start, outsiders still think that she, the old daughter-in-law of the Ning family, is not virtuous?

And Murakami's old sisters of the same age as her almost all hugged their grandchildren and became "grandmothers"! The son didn't pick up his wife - there were few, or he looked really shabby - he couldn't take it; Either it's a good job or a bad job, and the family is so poor that it clangs!

Her little rich man was tall and big, and he stood like a flagpole; Besides, her old Ning family is not poor...

So, Mother Liu released her words:

"If a girl marries my little rich son, she will buy all three gold, and the bride price will be 20,000 yuan!" 、

"Is the condition of the mother's family good - it doesn't matter, as long as the girl is good!"

"Who's going to help with the errands and meddling? If it doesn't work, 3 bottles of wine! - Successful matchmaking, two sets of clothes and two pairs of leather shoes! ”

In the past two years, neighbors, relatives and friends in distant villages have been interested in finding a good daughter-in-law for the Ning family. Everyone weighed and weighed, and couldn't help but talk about it, for fear that "if the media is not done, you will touch a nose of ash"?

After hearing the rumor of Granny Liu's "conditions for relatives", a group of enthusiastic people immediately took action and rushed to the Ning family to propose marriage, it is no exaggeration to say that the threshold of the Ning family is about to be stepped on...

Mother Liu is kind and kind for the sake of future generations, and she has done the right thing:

She was entrusted to "talk about matchmaking" and married Ning Mingjiang. After most of my life of thrifty housekeeping, now life is very nourishing!

But times have changed.

Ning Yuanfu's generation has already started "free love", and they have long been uninterested in arranged marriages - the orders of their parents and the words of matchmakers!

Is it because no matter what others mention or how the old lady urges, Ning Yuanfu is one hundred and twenty-four stuffy heads-don't express his position?

As soon as he saw the "matchmaker" coming to the door, he got up and drove away on a tricycle:

There is moso bamboo transport - moso bamboo; There is no bamboo transport, so I put up a canopy to support people...

Ning Lao Niang was so anxious that she couldn't think about it, so she said to Ning Yuangui during the holiday—

"Little nobleman, you read a lot, you persuade your eldest brother to see what kind of object he wants to find, so that he is willing? - I'm older than you, I'm not too young, and I'm still waiting to 'hold my grandson'?

Look at Wu Xiaoming, who is the same age as your brother, and is as tall as your brother's shoulders, and they are all married - they have a son..."

Ning Yuangui saw the old lady - so anxious that he almost cried? I feel very uncomfortable:

The boss really "shouldn't be", fancy - can't fancy it? Give me a good word! Don't squeak - what kind of trick did you do? It makes my parents anxious!

He didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one - first promised the old lady:

You must find a way to "persuade" the eldest brother and make up your mind early!

After agreeing, Ning Yuangui was in trouble—

He knows too well the eccentric temper of the boss, and sometimes - he talks like a "big brother"; Sometimes—lame an idea, squat a fart, like a baby!

What to do?

Reading is still useful. Ning Yuangui thought of the "leverage principle":

If you can't do it yourself, you can find a lobbyist...

He made up his mind, so he went to find Wu Xiaoming-Ning Yuanfu's iron buddy?

Xiaoming's words made Ning Lao Er suddenly brightened-

The eldest brother has "someone" in his heart. It is a little girl in Quanshui Village, who looks strangely good, called "Liu Guanglan". They talked about it themselves—not yet!

Ning Yuangui hurriedly ran home, went into the kitchen, and told the old lady the good news, saying that "the eldest brother has found a 'partner' by himself and is talking".

"I just know - my little rich son is capable, can't I rely on marrying a 'cheap daughter-in-law'?" Mother Liu raised her eyebrows and asked with a smile:

"What's the name of the little girl? How old is it? What does it look like? Where do you live? Who else is in the house? - Your brother is still hiding it quite tightly! ”

"Mom, I, I don't know..."Ning Lao Er had to confess:

"I listened to Brother Xiaoming. The eldest brother's girlfriend is called 'Liu Guanglan', she looks good, and she is from Quanshui Village. ”

He promised Wu Xiaoming to "keep it secret", in order to complete the task of the old lady - let her no longer worry about it, he can't care so much...

"Lan Lan? Lan Lan - from the big village? Mother Liu's face instantly became gloomy:

"I'm afraid—I can't do it!"

"......" Ning Yuangui was inexplicable, and he didn't dare to ask immediately, and said in his heart:

"Why can't it be done? Does the old lady know the future sister-in-law? — Is it my own relative? The old lady's surname is 'Liu', and she is also from the spring - so coincidental? If it is an in-law who has not come out of the 'five suits', it really can't be married by close relatives! ”

"Lan Lan is a little better, it seems that she is still in school? Your brother is fooling around-" Mother Liu's face turned dark - and she said with chagrin:

She does know Liu Guanglan, and according to her generation, she should call Lan Lan "niece". Even if in a few years, Lan Lan grows up - she can marry someone, marry a little rich son, and the "niece" becomes a "daughter-in-law", which is reasonable and unreasonable.

Such a big thing, I have to tell him Lao Tzu as soon as possible...

Ning Lao Er found that his mother was very angry and worried, but he didn't know how to comfort him?

He clearly felt:

This time "leaking" the boss's secret is a big disaster!

Not long after Mother Liu left the kitchen, there was a hoarse scolding from Ning Mingjiang from the drying field in front of the house:

"This can't be a thing! So many good big girls - don't, go find a little girl? I think he's 'doing death'! ”

After a while, Liu's mother dragged Lao Ning into the kitchen and persuaded her in front of her second son:

"You don't shout outside. Xiao Fuzi and Lan Lan are engaged in objects, and it is Xiao Guizi who listens to Wu Xiaoming. Haven't asked Qingshuang in person? Spread it out - don't you lose your son? ”

"Shame? He also knows 'shame'—hmph, when this little bastard comes back, I want him to look good—" Ning Mingjiang was furious, his forehead was bruised, and his left hand, which was holding the strip, trembled slightly.

"He's a 'bastard', what kind of brute are you? Well-he's so old, and he doesn't care about it-" Mother Liu retorted:

"My son is so old, I have relied on him to earn money in the past few years! You still want to, you still want to 'hit him' like when you were a child! ”

Ning Yuangui watched his parents quarrel, and hurriedly slipped out of the kitchen:

Interjecting and persuading now is tantamount to adding fuel to the fire. As is customary, this battle of words will end in the victory of the old lady!

At this time, the sound of a tricycle sounded outside the house!
