Rebirth of farming for a living

Chapter 152 Preparation

The pepper and sweet potato seedlings have been grown, and Wang Congcong's engagement day is approaching.

Zhou Xiao spends these days in school without thinking about food and drinks. He spends almost every free time thinking about Wang Congcong.

The teachers in his school couldn't stand it and gave him a lot of extra homework.

Therefore, if there is joy in suffering, life will pass quickly.

Mr. Zhou Xiaohe took leave and returned home one day early.

Shopkeeper Hu and Zhou Zhen have prepared the engagement ceremony. The eight-color gift includes two catties of meat, two catties of brown sugar, two jars of wine, two catties of snacks, two catties of tea, two pieces of cloth, a pair of bracelets, and two The hairpins are all tied with red cloth.

This engagement gift cannot be said to be unimportant.

Zhou Xiao couldn't help but be touched to see her parents being so considerate, all for themselves.

Zhou Xiao was tossing and turning as she was going to get engaged tomorrow.

In Wangjia'ao, when the noodle shop closed, Wang Erniu and Huang, together with Wang Congcong and Shitou, took Jiang Zhe's car back to Lijiazhuang. After meeting up with Wang Daniu and Cheng, they returned to Wangjia'ao.

Li Qiuyan's family is considered a guest, and we will drive the oxcart there together tomorrow morning.

In Wangjiaao, Lao Wang and his wife took the time to clean the house, just waiting for the Zhou family to come to their door the next day.

Early the next morning, everyone in the Li family was all dressed up. Jiang Zhe drove and soon arrived at Wangjia'ao.

Although the Wang family was not decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, everyone in the family was happy. In addition, helpers from the village also came over. Most of them were Wang Congcong's cousins, aunts, brothers, sisters-in-law, and other relatives of the Wang family with the same surname.

Some people also came to join in the fun, and Mrs. Cheng also smiled and let people eat sweets.

There were no entertainment activities in this era, and children loved to hang out in lively places.

There was also a stove set up in the yard. Although it was just an engagement today, there were still a few tables to be set up. Wang Daniu and Lao Wangtou discussed it and hired a cook. Several women from the family were there to help with washing vegetables. Chopping vegetables or something.

Ignoring Wang Jiangzhe who was greeting people, Li Qiuyan went to look for Wang Congcong in the house first.

Wang Congcong was also dressed up today. He was wearing new clothes, a gift from Mei Ruoqing, and the embroidery work was very exquisite.

It was just an engagement, so Mei Ruoqing only sent gifts but did not come over.

Wang Congcong also lightly applied a layer of rouge on his face and looked good.

She was sitting by the kang, and there were several cousins ​​from her family chatting together.

"Congcong, your clothes are so beautiful, aren't they cheap?" a cousin asked enviously.

Wang Congcong smiled: "The fabric is not expensive, but the embroidery is more careful and looks more expensive."

Although Mei Ruoqing is not short of money, she also knows Wang Congcong's temperament. The fabric is not cheap, but it does not look ostentatious.

The cousins ​​are still chattering. Wang Congcong is getting engaged. I heard that it is the young master's family of the cloth shop in the town. New clothes will be indispensable in the future.

Look, people in this era have such simple thoughts.

The young master who married into Cloth Village could only think that new clothes would be indispensable.

Who doesn’t know the joke in his previous life? He married a carpenter and could only use a lame chair.Married to an electrician, no one will fix the lights if they break.If you marry a butcher, you won’t be able to eat good meat.I married a wallpaper seller, and I didn’t even have a complete piece of wallpaper at home. It was just pieced together with leftovers.

Of course, this is a bit of a generalization.But it is true that most business people will sell all the better and easier-to-sell items, and try to use the unsellable and relatively low-cost items for their own homes.

But that doesn’t mean that the more you do something, the less likely you are to do anything.

Of course, Zhou Xiao would not let Wang Congcong lack clothes.

At this time, Zhou Xiao was sitting in the carriage. Isn't it just cloth piled next to him?

Seeing Li Qiuyan come in, the room fell silent.

Li Qiuyan pretended to be nonchalant and walked up to Wang Congcong.

"My sister Congcong looks really good today." Li Qiuyan praised her sincerely.

"No, I also said that Congcong looks good today." The cousin just now said again. This cousin talks a lot. Li Qiuyan thinks that although she likes to talk, she is not annoying.Just smile at the cousin.

Wang Congcong also lowered his head and smiled. She had nothing to do today.But there were a lot of people here, and as soon as she went out, the elders would tease her, so she stayed inside and chatted with her sisters.

When Li Qiuyan came over, time seemed to pass faster.
