After two days of crying and tossing, Zhao Caifeng suddenly disappeared without saying a word.

The Chen family searched everywhere they could in the commune, but they couldn't find her.

"She hasn't even returned to her mother's house, where can she go?" Wu Xiu'e looked worried, "Don't do anything else!" ”

Chen Dingguo snorted twice and complained to Wu Xiu'e, "Shanhe and Shiyue are about to get married, you say something auspicious." ”

Wu Xiu'e frowned and sighed, looking worried, but did not speak again.

Li Chun gave Jiang Shiyue a thumbs up again, "Zhao Caifeng, whom you provoked with a few words, turned against her mother's family, which can be regarded as cutting off her back road." ”

"Don't wronged a good person." Jiang Shiyue didn't admit it, with the innocent look of a little white rabbit, "I'm just claiming according to the price." However, with Zhao Caifeng's personality, he is not a person who can't think of finding a short-sighted. ”

Chen Shanlin nodded, "She won't." Rest assured. But it's not a good thing that she suddenly disappeared, maybe it's something bad! Let's try to find it again, so that she doesn't suddenly jump out and make trouble when you have a wedding. ”

Jiang Shiyue agreed.

Zhao Caifeng has been a powerful person in the Chen family for more than 20 years, and now that she has been swept away, it is strange that she is willing to give up! Not to mention that she is a small-bellied chicken intestine that must be repaid.

Chen Dingguo sighed lightly, "There are a thousand days to be a thief, but there is no thousand days to prevent thieves." Shanhe and Shiyue are about to have a wedding, what should you be busy with. Shanlin and Jiadong, you look around, no matter what, you have been a daughter-in-law for our Chen family for so many years, and you have to watch that people are safe. ”

Chen Shanhe and Chen Shanlin went down together.

Wu Xiu'e sighed with a bitter expression, "What kind of sin do you say our family has created?" Why isn't there a smooth sailing time? Finally, now Shanhe is getting married, I think that the two of us can close our eyes when we see our children getting married, but now it's good, the younger son is married and the eldest son is divorced! ”

In the late seventies, divorce was a particularly humiliating affair.

Jiang Shiyue suddenly felt a little ironic, most of the people in the seventies did not have a marriage certificate, and they could live a lifetime with only a simple wedding, unless it came to the point of Zhao Caifeng, there was really only widowhood and no divorce.

I can't hear anyone divorce for ten years and eight years, but if there is a couple, it is enough for the members of the twelve production brigades and more than 100 production teams of the entire commune to talk about it for two or three years.

The parties to the divorce are even more like out. The rail was arrested, and he was so humiliated that he couldn't hold his head up in the commune.

This is also why Zhao Caifeng always talks about divorce, but never thinks about real divorce.

Decades later, young people are stuck in time to step on a little bit, picking days like "520" and "10·10" to get a certificate.

How grand the divorce is when the certificate is obtained, how hasty the divorce is, not only is the divorce no longer a shameful thing, but some families also hold a divorce banquet with great fanfare.

The rising divorce rate has forced the country to create a cooling-off period for divorce.

As a result, more and more young people are afraid of the trouble of divorce and simply do not get married.

As the saying goes, there is no harm without contrast.

Chen Shanhe stretched out his hand and shook it in front of Jiang Shiyue's eyes, "What did my mother ask you about?" What god to go? ”

"Huh?" Jiang Shiyue looked at Wu Xiu'e blankly.

Wu Xiu'e hung her head like a child who made a mistake, "I said, we need to give a bride price to marry a daughter-in-law here, and we also need to prepare six beddings." As he spoke, he took out a bulging small cloth bag from his pants pocket, put it on the table, and pushed it in front of Jiang Shiyue, "Our family has always been in charge of your sister-in-law's family, and the family's money is in her hands." Your father and I can't work to make money, so we saved a total of these. Very little, don't be disgusted! ”

Jiang Shiyue was a little surprised, how could such a bulging cloth bag be hundreds of yuan bigger, where did the two of them get the money?

Out of curiosity, Jiang Shiyue picked up the cloth bag and opened it, and a one-cent coin fell out first.

A thick pile of banknotes, the largest face value is a two-yuan banknote, and there are very few, most of them are gross bills and ingredient money.

A golden penny, Jiang Shiyue had only seen it at a friend's house in his previous life. It was a penny stacked sailboat.

Ten pieces of one cent is one dime, and ten of them is one piece.

And in this cloth bag, there are one cents, two cents, five cents, one cent, and two cents.

Sixty-six pieces.

It was two old men who had no ability to work, who had saved money from between their teeth for many years.

Jiang Shiyue guessed that she had saved at least ten years over the years, just to give Chen Shanhe a bride price for his daughter-in-law.

Chen Shanhe's eyes were red, "Dad! Mother! ”

Jiang Shiyue pushed the money back as if her hands were hot, "I can't ask for this money." ”

Chen Dingguo looked up at Jiang Shiyue, "Too little?" I know that the bride price of your city is high. You are a good girl, and you have a bright future after being admitted to university. These sixty-six pieces are the hearts of our old couple. ”

"I'm not too little." Jiang Shiyue shook her head, her heart sour.

Sixty-six yuan is definitely not enough to marry a daughter-in-law even in the countryside in 78 years.

However, these sixty-six dollars are worth more than the six thousand six hundred and sixty-six thousand yuan of the rich people.

Even Jiang Shiyue himself can almost take out 6,000 yuan.

Because the 6,000 or 60,000 yuan of the rich family may only be a small half of the thousands of family properties, and these 66 yuan is all that the two old men have been for more than ten years.

"It's just that I've already received the bride price, and there's no reason to collect it again." Jiang Shiyue put the five hundred yuan she had snatched from Zhao Caifeng yesterday from her pocket on the table.

The expressions of the people in the room were suddenly very complicated.

Especially Chen Shanhe looked at Jiang Shiyue twice.

Li Chun "tsk" twice, touched his chin and asked Jiang Shiyue suspiciously, "I found that you, a comrade, are really calculating at a young age." You have been in the yard since yesterday and looked arrogant and arrogant and talked without a word, in fact, every step is useful, you beat people out of anger, sow discord and don't say anything, and take the opportunity to get the bride price money! What a little fox. ”

Lu Zheng patted Chen Shanhe on the shoulder, "Brother, marrying such a powerful daughter-in-law, your life is over!" As a token of sympathy, I have decided to give you a big gift. ”

Li Chun hugged Jiang Shiyue's arm and snorted towards Lu Zheng, "Sister, don't worry, we are not selling people, our dowry will not be less, although we have few people, we will not let them look down on us." ”

Jiang Shiyue: "......"

Chen Shanhe brushed away Lu Zheng's hand, and the disgust on his face was clear, "Zifei knows the joy of fishing?" My happiness is not understood by a single person who is not married. Keep your gift for your daughter-in-law! ”

He also touched it from his pocket, took out all the money on his body and counted it, and borrowed more than 20 yuan from Lu Zheng to make up a hundred yuan, and put it in Jiang Shiyue's hand, "The bride price is 600 yuan, auspicious amount!" ”

Chen Caifeng's five hundred yuan, most of which he earned.
