Chapter 18: The Li family urges marriage
Since I scared Zhao Dong away that night, Lijiagou has fallen into a brief peace.
Zhao Dong did give the Li family 1 million compensation, and the 30 million project contracted by Li Shui was not affected in any way.
Everything seems to be going in the best direction.
The good ones feel like they're dreaming.
During this time, the Li family was immersed in joy, and Li Xiangxiang's grandfather and father even began to plan to hold a wedding for me and Li Xiangxiang.
"Jiusheng, you and Xiangxianglang are talented and beautiful, otherwise choose a good day to get married."
The old man, Li Guofu, was smoking a dry cigarette and sitting at the door of my house.
In the past few days, he has been talking about marriage almost every day.
When it comes to getting married, I don't understand at all, I'm twenty years old this year, although I'm not young, but how can I be so hasty when marriage is a big deal?
Moreover, my grandfather has not come back from going to the imperial capital, even if I really want to marry Li Xiangxiang, I have to wait for my grandfather to come back to preside over the marriage.
"Second grandfather, I'm not in a hurry to get married, and I haven't prepared the bride price yet." I said euphemistically.
When it comes to bride price, in a small place like Lijiagou, it is as little as 1780,000 yuan, and as much as 300,000 or 400,000 yuan, which is still an ordinary family marrying a daughter-in-law.
And like Li Xiangxiang's family, how can the bride price start from a million.
When the old man Li Guofu heard me mention the bride price, he thought I meant that he had no money, so he waved his hand.
"Jiusheng, don't you see it, the Li family is not the kind of person who sells his daughter, what bride price, three gold, and messy rules are not wanted."
"As long as you're good to Xiangxiang, that's enough."
When I heard the old man Li Guofu say this, I was really moved and wanted to cry, if all the people in the world were as enlightened as the Li family, what kind of scene would it be?
But reason tells me that this is a fool's dream!
The Li family and the master are both shrewd thieves, even if I helped their family a lot this time, I am sure that the reason why the Li family is so kind to me must be tired.
If something goes wrong, there must be a demon.
As a grave keeper, I know this truth better than anyone else.
"Second grandfather, you and Uncle Li are really good to me, I thank you very much, but my grandfather hasn't come back yet......" I squeezed out an ugly smile, and I could only use my grandfather to prevaricate.
This time, Li Guofu put away the smile on his face and smoked a dry cigarette.
"How long will it take for your grandfather to come back?" Li Guofu asked with a cold face.
I counted on my fingers, "Four days, Grandpa will be back in four days." ”
Hearing this, Li Guofu sighed heavily, "It's only four days." ”
I looked at Li Guofu with a sad look, but I basically guessed his thoughts in my heart.
The reason why the Li family was in a hurry to let me marry Li Xiangxiang was nothing more than to dig up the hill behind my house!
Li Guofu and Li Xiangxiang mentioned this matter three times, and I remember it clearly.
"Jiusheng, it's not that I have to force you and Xiangxiang to get married so soon, it's just that you and Xiangxiang are like that, there are many people who know now, if you delay like this, how can our family Xiangxiang see people in the village? She doesn't go out during the day now. ”
Li Guofu looked at me meaningfully, and what he said was very plain.
But the more Li Guofu said such an important thing indifferently, the more I couldn't bear it in my heart.
"Second grandfather, don't worry, I will be responsible for Xiangxiang and will not let her suffer the slightest grievance." I whispered with my head down.
"In this case, get engaged tomorrow, and hold a wedding the day after tomorrow, you don't have to prepare anything, the Li family will do everything, you just need to be a good son-in-law of the Li family."
After Li Guofu finished speaking, he left quickly, not giving me a chance to speak at all.
"Door-to-door son-in-law? When did I agree to be a son-in-law! I looked at Li Guofu's back and complained, but the old man pretended to be deaf and couldn't hear.
I had a sad and bitter face, it was a great joy to get married, and the wife I married was still a beautiful lady like Li Xiangxiang, but I couldn't be happy.
Not to mention being a son-in-law for the time being, the Li family has to hold a wedding before grandpa comes back, because they must be afraid that grandpa will oppose this marriage.
I grew up with my grandfather, and my grandfather has more weight in my heart than any relative, if my grandfather didn't nod his head to agree to this marriage, if my grandfather didn't attend my wedding, even if I married a fairy, I wouldn't be happy.
"Grandpa, come back quickly, I'm not afraid of demons and monsters, but I'm afraid of human feelings, I have a skin-to-skin relationship with Li Xiangxiang, and I can't live up to her if I am reasonable, but the Li family threatens me with this matter, how should I deal with it?"
I watched anxiously as Dongfang stomped his feet.
Soon it was evening again, and I was so worried that I couldn't eat, so I sat alone in the back of the house looking at the graves on the winding hills.
"Brother Jiusheng, did my grandfather force you to marry me again? And let you be a son-in-law? Li Xiangxiang's pleasant voice came, and I glanced back.
Li Xiangxiang tonight is more beautiful than last night, she is wearing a sundress, revealing a good-looking shrinking bone, and her breasts are looming in the sundress, I don't know if she did it on purpose, or because she walked like this.
I watched her swallow and squeeze out a smile, "I volunteered to marry you, and no one forced me." ”
"Hehe, I know that Brother Jiusheng is the best, I will follow you in this life, even if you go to the ends of the earth, even if you go to the abyss."
Li Xiangxiang snuggled up to me as she spoke, and put my arm between her breasts.
I don't understand what she said, the first half of the sentence is fine, but the last one.
What am I going to do in the Abyss?
"Xiangxiang, tell me the truth, your grandfather is in a hurry for me to marry you, is it to dig up the grave on the hill I guard?"
I asked, hugging Li Xiangxiang's soft waist.
Li Xiangxiang cooperated with me very much, pressed closer to my body, and then put her mouth to her ear.
"If you want to know, I can tell you, but our business at the grave that night is not over yet."
"I want to continue ......"
