Chapter 189: Gifts
After eating, the sun went down and the weather was cooler, so Gu Siwei took Sicui to the village.
The brother and sister got off the cliff and got on the boat all the way to the entrance of the village, that is, the small courtyard where Gu Siwei lived, and now belongs to Sun Qiumei and her husband Zhao Fangming.
The two of them have already pulled out the certificate, but they haven't held a banquet yet, of course, the two of them can't hold any banquet now, they are so poor that it has become a problem for them to eat, and what kind of banquet can they do.
It's just to buy some candy and give it to the children in the village, and the adults come over to have a cup of tea and say a few auspicious words.
Now this condition is superfluous.
Today is the day when the two of them set up a table, and it can't be said that they are setting up a table, and they don't even have a table. It's just going through the motions and letting everyone be lively together.
So now Gu Siwei will take his sister Sicui to congratulate Zhao Fangming and Sun Qiumei, and at the same time send some handy things to use in the future as a congratulatory gift.
Gu Siwei didn't send anything too good here, first, the villagers are not rich, if he sends a bicycle here, how can others deal with themselves?
So Gu Siwei prepared a four-piece set for a couple of newcomers, not a four-piece set at this time, it should be said to be a six-piece set, the pillow not only has a pillowcase but also a pillowcloth, this thing is two big towels, spread on the pillow when sleeping.
So far, Gu Siwei hasn't figured it out, obviously he has a pillowcase, what do you want a pillow towel?
I don't understand, I don't understand, but it doesn't prevent Gu Siwei from following the customs, he doesn't use it himself, but when he gives it away, he has to look good.
These things are naturally not bought by Gu Siwei with money, and the wool from other people's houses in the store last time has not been scattered, so this must be regarded as borrowing flowers to offer Buddha.
Originally, Gu Siwei was worried about whether there was anything wrong with the statement, so he specially asked Wu Meiling's sister-in-law of the Wu family, but Meiling's sister-in-law smiled and said that it was okay, the size was a piece of mind, so Gu Siwei decided to send these.
"Brother, when are you going to get married?"
Si Cui sat on the deck at the bow of the boat, his two feet were soaked in the water, next to them were grass flowers and squares, and the two big guys were now like children, opening their mouths from time to time to swallow Si Cui's feet into their mouths, and then spit them out.
Swallowing and spitting, Sicui giggled with laughter.
"Why do you suddenly ask that?"
Gu Siwei looked at Sicui and asked with a smile.
Si Cui said: "It's nothing, I just want to ask, just wait for my sister-in-law to marry into the door."
"What's up?" Gu Siwei was a little incomprehensible.
Sicui said with a smile: "After a year, I will have a little nephew to bring me, so it is naturally good."
Belch!
Gu Siwei never thought that Sicui would say such a reason, he was stunned for a while and couldn't help laughing, and then teased her and said, "Why not the little niece?" If it's a little niece, you don't like her? ”
Si Cui shook his head: "No, I like it too, but it's good that my sister-in-law wants to have another nephew, otherwise who will we give so much land to in the future?" My niece's child won't be surnamed Gu."
Gu Siwei listened: "You are patriarchal at a young age, this is unacceptable, even if you only have a little niece, these things are hers."
Si Cui shook his head: "That's not possible, maybe our family will be bullied to death in the future." Well, when my sister-in-law enters the door, I will give birth to a few more, and by then there will be seven or eight nephews, and no one will dare to bully our family with this style."
Si Cui said as he stirred his feet, the smile on his face was like the sun that had just set, fiery red.
Gu Siwei doesn't know what to say about this girl, there is no need to say that the life of a girl in the past is self-suffering, it is normal to be bullied by others, there are no brothers and sisters, and there are no parents to rely on, the villain naturally thinks that the family will have more people in the future, so that he will not be bullied.
Thinking of this, Gu Siwei responded with a smile: "Okay, after your sister-in-law enters the door, you tell your sister-in-law."
"Well, I said" Sicui nodded, his little face was upright, as if he had made up his mind, and made Gu Siwei want to be happy.
Suddenly, Sicui asked again, "Brother, is my sister-in-law Sister Yanqiu?" ”
"Huh?"
Gu Siwei asked, "Why do you say that?" ”
Although Gu Siwei thinks that Hu Yanqiu is a good girl, he is also happy to have a relationship with her, but get married? This...... Well, the word marriage doesn't often appear together in Gu Siwei's mind.
In the past, he didn't want to get married in his thirties, but now he himself is seventeen years old, just like a flower, and he wants to get married?
Even if it is common to get married early in the countryside now, Gu Siwei is not in the mood to join in the fun.
Isn't it good to live alone?
This was a very common view among young people in Gu Siwei's time.
"How do I know this," Gu Siwei said truthfully.
Si Cui was a little confused, and turned his head to look at his brother, looking like I was looking at a fool.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Gu Siwei is a little strange.
"Brother, you're not always smart."
Sicui came out of nowhere.
Gu Siwei smiled: "Where do you start with this?" Who says I'm smart in everything? ”
Sicui raised his eyebrows proudly: "I said, I think my brother is smart in everything."
"Thank you for joining us"
Gu Siwei laughed twice.
"But you're not doing it right, I think Sister Yanqiu also thinks you're good, and you also think Sister Yanqiu is good, so you'll get married, why are you hanging here? You've got a lot of work! ”
“……”
At this time, Gu Siwei was speechless, and opened his mouth to say: "Marriage is not so easy, it is the two of them who decide to spend the rest of their lives together for decades in the future, so they have to be cautious, I am now thinking carefully with your sister Yanqiu."
Gu Siwei didn't know how to explain this to a child as old as Sicui, so he just talked nonsense.
Sicui naturally didn't understand, the little girl saw that the marriage was a three-sided marriage, that is, when they met on a blind date, the two looked at each other, and they met each other on a fixed day, and finally the third time when the two saw each other again was the night of candles in the cave room.
At this time, the Zhuang family got married like this, sixteen or seventeen years old and a half children were brought by their parents to see each other, generally the two families are still knowing, and there is nothing to pick, to be able to see it means that the two families are satisfied with each other's conditions, as for the opinions of the two children, there are, but not much.
Blind marriage and dumb marriage, this is the case.
But you can't say it? It's not good that many people have been supporting each other all their lives all their lives, and after a few decades, they have fallen in love, in addition to shaking the bed a few more times, to get the divorce rate up.
"I think it's a simple thing~!" Si Cui said.
After speaking, Sicui's brain circuit began to jump, and asked, "Brother, let's give such a big gift to Sister Qiu Mei this time, when you get married, can Sister Qiu Mei come back?" ”
Hahahaha.
Gu Siwei laughed and said, "Why are you so stingy, you haven't given the gifts yet, you want to take them back?" ”
"That's for sure," Si Cui looked back at the basket again.
In the basket is a gift from Gu Siwei, Sicui is a little greedy, it's not that Sicui doesn't have it, Sicui is now covered with a thin blanket on the bed, I don't know how many times more expensive than this thing.
The blanket is the kind of soft hair, woven of animal hair, not only wool, that thing is hard and tied, and ordinary people can't cover it without a cover, and Gu Siwei doesn't know what kind of wool Gu Siwei has, so how can he have the face to run back and ask people what kind of wool this blanket is.
Anyway, it's expensive.
But Sicui, who is used to being poor, is reluctant to give things to others.
I just wanted to say something to the girl, but I found that I had arrived at the dock of Liu Guo's two families, and the two families were now on the dock preparing to board the ship.
"Four dimensions!"
Liu Fulin waved his hand at Gu Siwei.
Gu Siwei was about to stop the boat, but the speed of the boat was a little fast, and it was only after drifting over the dock that it was about twenty meters before the speed of the ship was reduced.
At this time, it is natural to let the cubes and grass flowers help, but the two of them help to get on the boat and stop quickly may have a bad impact on the hull, Gu Siwei is afraid that one day he will float into the water while sitting on the boat, if it is okay in summer, it will be cool in winter.
What is even more afraid is that he was not on the boat at that time, and it was someone else on the boat, so maybe he would kill someone, so Gu Siwei only used the boat to slow down.
When they were waiting for the boat to speed down, Liu Fulin and his family had already boarded the boat and drifted over.
"The family didn't come with you?"
Gu Siwei saw that there were only three people from the two families, including Liu Dezhu, who was not on the boat, so he asked at the same time.
Liu Fulin said: "It's just to send something to say, what are so many people doing."
Guo Shengshou said with a smile: "I didn't bring a few of our family, and the second boy also complained that my aunt's sugar is not as delicious as your family's sugar, isn't it unpleasant to talk nonsense in the past."
Gu Siwei smiled when he heard it: "Tong Yan is unscrupulous!" ”
That's what he said, but it was really embarrassing to say it on the spot, so Guo Shengshou and his family simply threw a few of their small ones at home, and Liu Dezhu helped take care of them.
"Siwei, what are you preparing?" Guo Shengshou asked.
Wu Meiling smiled: "Look at your memory, didn't I tell you?"
Guo Shengshou patted his head: "Look at my memory, you told me that the bedding is very good." But it's not as practical as our home."
Gu Siwei was surprised at this time and asked, "What did you send from your family?" ”
Wu Meiling said: "What our family can send, what else can be sent, our two families discussed it, and each sent a bag of new rice this year."
As she spoke, Wu Meiling pointed to the cabin.
Gu Siwei took a look at it and said with a smile: "It's really more practical than what I sent."
Zhao Fangming and Sun Qiumei have no land in the village, although Sun Qiumei's parents and brothers are in the village, but it is impossible to give her land, the reason is very simple, she is a girl, and the land does not have her share.
This is the idea of people now, so Gu Siwei will not judge others with any morality decades later.
If there is no land, there will be no food, so for this little couple, food must be more important than anything else, Gu Siwei estimates that most families in the village send it like this.
The three of them just got together, and the two boats drifted downstream almost side by side.
