It turned out that Zhang Xiaoxue's little uncle fell in love with a girl named Zhuxiang in this village, but this girl was going to be married to Master Liu's house in the town by her parents to be a third-room daughter-in-law because of the dowry of five taels.

This old man Liu is in his 40s and has married two wives, but they are both daughters, so he plans to marry a third wife this year, hoping that his new daughter-in-law can give birth to a son for himself.

Mr. Liu's family runs a grain shop, and the family is relatively rich, and he will give him a dowry of five taels when he marries his wife, and let the matchmaker tell him a yellow flower girl.

In the village, the dowry is generally only two taels of silver, and the more is three taels of silver, and Master Liu gave a dowry of five taels this time, and many people want to marry their daughters to him.

The elder brother of this girl's family has reached the age of going to talk about his daughter-in-law, and because the family has no money, they want to marry her to Master Liu in exchange for the dowry of five taels of silver, so that his son can marry his daughter-in-law.

The girl that the little uncle likes is more outstanding among these girls, and Master Liu must like it, so her family is ready to find a matchmaker to match.

This girl doesn't want to marry an old man in his 40s, she actually likes Zhang Xiaoxue's uncle, and yesterday she mustered up the courage to find her uncle and tell her about it, hoping that the man she likes can think of a way.

Zhang Xiaoxue's uncle thought about it for a night, and only told his parents about it, and asked them to ask the matchmaker to say goodbye to him.

"Although Zhuxiang is a good girl, but his parents are very snobbish, if you marry Zhuxiang, their parents are from the same village, there will definitely be a lot of things to trouble you in the future, you have to think about it, don't be in a hurry to make a decision. Grandpa looked at his youngest son and said.

"No, when the time comes, their parents often go to your house to fight the autumn breeze, but you will have to bear it. Da Chen also said.

The people in the grandmother's family did not approve of the little uncle marrying this Zhuxiang girl in the future, and they persuaded the little uncle one after another, but Zhang Xiaoxue's little uncle was firm in his idea, how could he marry this Zhuxiang girl.

Zhang Xiaoxue is quite sympathetic to her uncle, in this place that is a bit like ancient times, free love is really rare.

Most of the marriages here are blind marriages and dumb crops, generally parents are in charge, through the introduction of matchmakers, the two parties to the marriage have never met and have been together, and the relationship is still after getting married and getting along slowly.

Zhang Xiaoxue looked at the little uncle who was opposed by the family, but begged hard, it was really not easy for him to stick to his ideas all the time.

Zhang Xiaoxue felt that it was because of the problem of money that they were deadlocked here, and in Zhang Xiaoxue's eyes, the five taels of silver were really nothing, so she wanted to help her little uncle.

"Grandpa, just agree to your uncle's request, if you don't agree to him, I think my uncle will cry. ”

Zhang Xiaoxue sat next to her grandmother, she shook her grandmother's hand, and said to her grandmother in a slightly coquettish tone.

"Xue'er, you don't understand, these five taels of silver are not a small amount, and this matter can't be decided so rashly. Grandma answered Zhang Xiaoxue's question and said the essence of the matter.

"Isn't it just five taels of silver? Our family should be able to take it out, and let my little uncle return it to you in the future." ”

"Uncle Xiao likes Miss Zhuxiang in his heart, even if you give him a good girl at that time, but Uncle Xiao doesn't like the girl you told me in his heart, and the two of them will not be able to live together in the future. ”

After listening to what Zhang Xiaoxue said, grandpa and grandpa are indeed thinking about this matter, without feelings, it will not be good for two people to get along at all.

"I came up with a way, my uncle can go to my house to grind grain paste and work, and his family will live in our house, at least 30 yuan a day, this five taels of silver can be earned by my uncle in less than half a year, and then let my uncle return this money to you, count the bamboo girl he earned his own money to marry, isn't this good, when the time comes, my uncle will be filial to you when he makes money, grandpa, you agree." ”

After listening to Zhang Xiaoxue's words, the little uncle's face was full of gratitude, and he hadn't paid much attention to his niece before, but he really didn't expect that his niece would support himself so much when he was so helpless.

This time, I took a closer look at my niece, and was surprised to find that my niece is really beautiful now, and she is no longer the yellow-haired girl in my impression.

Such a beautiful girl is really rare in the countryside, anyway, he has never seen it, and his temperament is also very good, just like the ladies in the city, he was also very moved when he told her to go to her house to work.

"Daddy, what Xiaoxue said is right, I will earn money in the future, I will definitely return this money to you, you can agree, I will go to the fifth sister's house to work. ”

Zhang Xiaoxue's little uncle said again, and when he said this, his eyes were very firm.

"Okay, let's take out five taels of silver to marry you to the Zhuxiang girl, hey, we parents are also looking forward to your good life in the future, these five taels of silver are almost all the savings in the family, originally I and your mother also decided to find a matchmaker to tell you kiss this year, this money does not have to be returned to us, just give us some coffins when the time comes. ”

Grandpa finally decided that he also very much wanted his youngest son to work in his daughter's house, and the salary of 30 yuan a day was indeed not a small amount, and his daughter's family hired others as well, so it was better to earn this money from his family.

It's just that he thought that there was so much land at home, and his health was not too good, so he couldn't do it himself, so he said with some hesitation: "It's just that if you go to your fifth sister's house to work, but I can't do it alone in the field." ”

When the little uncle heard that his father and mother had agreed to him marrying Zhuxiang, he was very happy, and he was a little anxious about the fact that if he went to work, no one would take care of the land at home.

After looking at the two brothers next to him, it suddenly occurred to me that it was better to take out some money and let the two brothers help, anyway, it was not for them to work in vain, and the two eldest brothers should agree.

"Otherwise, eldest brother, second brother, I will go to the fifth sister's house to work, our father can't take care of the land at home, and ask the two brothers to help take care of some, it's not a farm now, it's just weeding and watering, I'll come back to work when the farm is busy, I'll give you 100 yuan a month, is this okay?" After the little uncle finished speaking, he looked at the two brothers with a look of hope, hoping that they could agree to his request.

Zhang Xiaoxue's eldest uncle and second uncle, when they heard the younger brother's request, and there was still 100 yuan to take, they also simply agreed to his request, and they all said that they were willing to help.

The matter of the little uncle was finally resolved satisfactorily.
