Chapter 2, the treacherous slippage of the Song family
The day after receiving the marriage certificate, Yang Cuiping was ready to go back to her parents' house to stay, and when the day came, the man's family came to marry, and when she left in the morning, Song Ziyang's mother gave Yang Cuiping a hundred yuan, saying that it was the money to buy wedding clothes. A hundred dollars simply can't buy a decent set of clothes. Song Ziyang also said to Yang Cuiping before, "Their family is in difficulty, they are all honest farmers, they have no money, and they can only give you 150 yuan at most to buy clothes, and if they have more, there will be no more......, etc." Looking at the 100 yuan in his hand, Yang Cuiping couldn't say anything, Song Ziyang saw that he only gave Yang Cuiping 100 yuan, so he said, "At least 150 yuan must be given to buy clothes, where is 100 yuan enough mud." Who knew that before he finished speaking, his mother exploded all of a sudden, "Where is the money, look what you have forced your father to be." As soon as Song Ziyang's father heard this, he picked up the saw in his hand and hit Song Ziyang's head, then stood up and prepared to do something to Song Ziyang. Yang Cuiping turned around and left with her bag, she couldn't stand it anymore, she was panicked, Song Ziyang saw Yang Cuiping leave, and followed her to see her off.
While waiting for the train at the station, Song Ziyang's mother chased after him again and scolded Song Zi: "I won't buy you clothes, you don't want to fight for something, my mother won't give you a penny......
Song Ziyang sent Yang Cuiping to the county seat. Because the wedding day was approaching, there was not much time left, so she accompanied Yang Cuiping to buy clothes, and looking at the hundred yuan in her hand, Yang Cuiping had to buy a set of cheaper clothes. The front of Song Ziyang's shoes also opened a big opening, Yang Cuiping bought him another pair of cloth shoes, and gave Song Ziyang ten yuan for the fare.
Back at home, Yang Cuiping felt very aggrieved when she thought about it, but she didn't tell her parents what happened in the Song family in the past few days, she thought, her father wanted her to marry out immediately, even if he told them about the Song family, he wouldn't care, and his father was worried that he couldn't get married, and he would lose face.
Thinking of the Song family's arrogance and unreasonableness, she will definitely have a hard time in the future, Yang Cuiping was afraid, she hesitated and didn't want to marry.
But I thought of my father's quarrel all day long, if this marriage couldn't be successful, my father would definitely have to scold people all day long, Yang Cuiping was not afraid of my father's scolding, my father scolded my mother, Yang Cuiping felt sorry for my mother, my mother was honest all her life, and she always took her father as the sky, and what her father said was what she said. What Yang Cuiping is most afraid of is that her father scolds her mother, as long as her father is angry with her mother, Yang Cuiping is compromised, and Yang Cuiping doesn't want her mother to be embarrassed in many things, so she swallows her anger and endures it.
Thinking of her mother crying in front of Yang Cuiping all day long, Yang Cuiping didn't want to say anything. She had to comfort herself, forget it, no matter what the road looks like in the future, she will admit it. Didn't you say that Song Ziyang was a high school student, his parents were arrogant and unreasonable, Song Ziyang shouldn't be like his parents, at least his mental quality should be better, besides, he graduated from high school, and he will go to the examination to recruit cadres in the future, and after getting married, as long as the two of them work together, life will not be very bad.
In a blink of an eye, it was the wedding day, and Song Jiaque had not given the Yang family the bride price money, and asked Song Ziyang before, and he said that he would bring it together when he got married. The parents were very unhappy, so they complained all day long, saying: "It's not cost-effective to raise a daughter, and it's a waste of time to raise a daughter." did not prepare a dowry for Yang Cuiping, he said: "After raising it for so many years, I still have to pay for it." Later, the two elder brothers felt that they had no face, so they persuaded their father to prepare two sets of quilt covers and a sewing machine. The eldest brother bought Yang Cuiping a bicycle, and her father was very reluctant.
Originally, my father wanted to have a big feast, because he didn't take care of the first two daughters, and this little daughter, he wanted to earn face, after all, he was a retired cadre, and he was afraid that he would lose face when asked by others in the future. But this son-in-law is not angry, and he can't get the money, he feels that this daughter is a loss for marrying, and he nagged all day long. Yang Cuiping was also aggrieved in her heart, she knew that the Song family was unreasonable, she didn't even see each other at all, and Song Ziyang couldn't be the master.
Yang Cuiping consulted with her father, telling her father not to invite guests or set up banquets, because the distance was too far, the Song family couldn't afford to hire a car to pick it up, and then there would be no face, besides, the Yang family did not prepare a dowry, and when the time came, the people on the Song family's side also laughed, and the people on the Song family's side took their daughters very seriously, and there were a lot of dowries for their daughters, and they were very good.
The Song family came to a car and counted the people, and the Yang family didn't have to go so many people to send their relatives. My father also thought that there was no dowry here, and if he was too demanding, he was afraid that others would laugh at him, so he agreed after thinking about it.
Yang Cuiping told Song Ziyang again, isn't their Song family without money, so there is no need to put the wedding wine, everything is simple, and Song Ziyang also agreed.
Soon it was the twentieth day of the lunar month, and my father didn't do anything big, only Yang Cuiping's two brothers and sisters-in-law, as well as the second sister's family, my uncle and the uncle of the neighbor next door, and my uncle were the introducers.
Because the distance is a bit far, on the nineteenth day of the lunar month, Song Ziyang invited a small minibus, and only two people came to Yang Cuiping's house with the driver. After dinner, my uncle asked Song Ziyang if he had brought the bride price money, and Song Ziyang said, "Brought, here, I."
Tomorrow morning in giving". After saying that, he went out, uncle and father, you look at me, I look at you, I know in my heart that Song Ziyang may not have brought the bride price money, so my uncle said to Yang Cuiping: "Go, ask him if you want it, you must ask him if you want it, why are these people so untrustworthy." Yang Cuiping knew in her heart that Song Ziyang definitely didn't bring the bride price, she thought of Song Ziyang's parents' attitude, thought that Song Ziyang might be angry at home again, she didn't want to embarrass Song Ziyang, the matter had come to this, she didn't want to force Song Ziyang. Yang Cuiping was a little puzzled, Song Ziyang, you didn't bring the bride price money, so you didn't bring it, why don't you tell the truth, how will you deal with it tomorrow morning.
Yang Cuiping thought that her parents had worked hard to raise her for more than 20 years, and the 450 yuan bride price was not much at all, and the Song family was unwilling to give it, the more she thought about it, the more sad she became, and she couldn't help but shed tears, and her father and uncle saw Yang Cuiping crying, and they couldn't say anything.
The father is usually very noisy, but now he may think that his daughter is going to get married, and he will really leave him tomorrow, but this time he is not noisy.
After breakfast the next day, I packed up and prepared to go out, there is also a rule here, when my daughter gets married, she must give her parents money for leaving, this money is not much, just the heart, but Song Ziyang is not prepared. Uncle asked Song Ziyang for the bride price this time, "Bride price, didn't you say that you would give it this morning?" Song Ziyang said, "The brothers are going to send off their relatives, and when they come back, I will give it to my eldest brother and let him bring it back to his parents." The uncle said, "Okay then" Everyone was angry in their hearts. There were two brothers and two sisters-in-law, two sisters, uncles, neighbors, uncles, and several nephews, as well as uncles' daughters, a total of eleven people. Before going out, my father said to my second brother, "Don't say anything when you go, just eat." It means that he is afraid that the second brother will go to the Song family to find something to say. The second brother was even more angry when he heard this, his face was not good-looking all the way, and he didn't say a word, everyone was very angry in their hearts, and they didn't talk much. Due to the long distance, it was already more than twelve o'clock at noon when he arrived at Song's house, and Song Ziyang agreed to persuade his parents not to set up a banquet, but when he went, he realized that their house was setting up a banquet. Yang Cuiping asked Song Ziyang: "Didn't you say that you wouldn't set up a banquet, why are you setting up a banquet again," Song Ziyang said: "Mom said that they have spread a lot of love outside, and now they must take it back." ”
Now that the cars have arrived, they are all ready to visit the church.
The people who sent off their relatives didn't talk much, they all buried their heads in eating, ate a little in three or two, got up and left without even saying hello, Yang Cuiping and Song Ziyang hurriedly chased them to stay for one night and went back, the two brothers had already walked away in front, and the sister-in-law said, "Let's go back, we have to go to work tomorrow," and followed along.
Yang Cuiping stayed in Sanwan, and finally decided to stay for one night if she didn't go to work.
Seeing the two brothers leaving, the uncle asked Song Ziyang, "Didn't you say to give the bride price money to the eldest brother and bring it back, you can bring it to your eldest brother quickly." Song Ziyang said, "Wait tomorrow, wait for tomorrow to bring back to my uncle," and my uncle was a little angry and said, "Okay." Uncle and uncle, second sister, neighbor and uncle, who did not go to work, stayed. Yang Cuiping knew that her brothers were angry and left, but the matter has come to this point, and noisy can't solve the problem, just people like Song Ziyang's parents, you can't tell them clearly. After breakfast the next day, my uncle and second sister were going back, Yang Cuiping and Song Ziyang went to see them off, they all walked for a while, Song Ziyang still didn't mention the bride price, and the uncle asked Song Ziyang again cheekily, saying: "You don't give a penny of the bride price, Yang Cuiping's parents raised the grace, you should also express it, right?" Song Ziyang said: "It's ready, I'll go back and get it." As he spoke, he turned around and went back to get two red envelopes and gave them to his uncle. Yang Cuiping was a little uneasy, because she vaguely felt that Song Ziyang's parents were not so happy, so Yang Cuiping said to her uncle, "You open the red envelope and see how much it is." The uncle opened the red envelope, and there were two red envelopes, each of which contained 20 yuan, and the second sister cried on the spot when she saw it, saying: "My parents have worked so hard for more than 20 years, and they haven't even earned money for a set of clothes, so they don't just want it, return it to them, don't go back to their names in the future, I don't know how much red envelope money I thought I had sealed." The uncle was also speechless with anger, so he directly returned the red envelope to Song Ziyang, turned around and left.
After sending away her uncle and second sister, Yang Cuiping really wanted to cry. Through Song Ziyang's performance in the past few days, for this man and for the days to come, Yang Cuiping is confused......
After leaving her parents, brother and sister-in-law, she will be alone in the future, how should she get along with them in this strange family......
