The happy little days of the Ye family

After the matter between Fang Jiawang and Hu Shengnan was settled, the Fang family was filled with joy.

Fang Datian and Liang's heart finally fell to the ground. Someone finally wanted the brat Lao San.

Although it's not nice to have a son-in-law come to your door, it's better than having a son who has always been a bachelor.

Moreover, the Hu family is also a good family. From now on, living a down-to-earth life is better than anything else. Their reputation is all false.

As for Fang Jiawang's eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law, they were so happy that they couldn't suppress the raised corners of their mouths.

Although the third child often comes home with meat, he gets along well with the children at home.

But he can't work, and he has to be taken care of by the family. If he is married off, the family's burden will be lighter in the future, and there will be an extra room for the children.

As for the children, they were as happy as if they were celebrating the New Year while eating sweets. They all hope that their brother-in-law will marry in the town as soon as possible so that they can go to the town to play.

They have grown so old that they have not been to the town many times to attend the fair.

After Fang Jiawang sent Hu Shengnan out, he smiled and extended his hands to his parents when he came back.

"Father, mother, when I go to the Hu family to be the son-in-law, I am like a married daughter. What dowry have you prepared for me?"

Mrs. Liang was in a good mood and even joked with her son.

"Okay, okay, you are the only daughter in our family. This dowry will definitely be decent for you."

"This is what you said, mother. You can't go back on your word. If the dowry is less, I won't do it." Fang Jiawang looked at her with a smile.

Mrs. Liang slapped her in the face, "You brat..."

Before she could finish her words, Mrs. Li on the side stepped forward cheerfully and said:

"Third brother, I still have some fabric on hand. I'll buy some cotton and come back to make two thin quilts for you."

"Thank you, sister-in-law."

Fang Jiawang smiled sincerely. He really didn't expect his sister-in-law, who had always been so picky, to be so generous.

Immediately afterwards, Huang also stepped forward enthusiastically and said:

"Third brother, the clothes you wear on weekdays are all patched. Second sister-in-law will make you two decent clothes and two pairs of shoes. Don't let the people in the town underestimate you."

"Thank you, second sister-in-law."

Not to mention the prosperity of the Fang family, even Fang Datian and Liang were a little surprised. They didn't expect the two daughters-in-law to be so generous.

In fact, the two daughters-in-law are not stingy people. It's just that the third child doesn't like to work on weekdays. They feel a little uncomfortable having to support such a grown-up person at home.

Therefore, the old couple felt somewhat guilty when facing their two daughters-in-law. He was always good-tempered and cheerful, and he had never been mean to them.

Li and Huang are not people who like to take advantage. Fang Jiawang became the son-in-law, and he knew in his heart that the eldest and second child actually took advantage.

After all, the Fang family's fields and house will have nothing to do with Lao San from now on.

As for providing for the two elders, the two of them had never thought about what help Fang Jiawang could do. It was good enough that they didn't need the elder couple to support him.

The two of them took advantage and were generous with their actions, intending to subsidize the third child.

Moreover, the third child is capable, and now that he has joined the Hu family, he may be able to help his own children in the future.

The two of them didn't dare to take any ideas from the Hu family. They thought it would be great if they could help their children to become apprentices in the town.

The two sisters-in-law are also interested in establishing a good relationship with Fang Jiawang, so there is no harm in having multiple connections.

"When you get married, your second brother and I will prepare the meat for the wedding banquet."

"Yes, yes, don't worry, third brother, my eldest brother and I promise to make your wedding banquet decent."

Fang Jiakang and Fang Jiafu had no money and planned to go back to the mountains to hunt more pheasants and rabbits.

"Thanks."

Fang Jiawang squeezed between the two brothers and was very happy to put his arms on their shoulders.

Mrs. Liang was very pleased to see that the three brothers had a good relationship.

Even if the third child becomes a son-in-law, life will not be too bad if there are two brothers to help him in the future.

"Uncle Third, here are we. Let's go dig wild vegetables and come back." A few little pods chirped and raised their hands.

Fang Jiawang rubbed the little heads of several little guys one by one.

"Just have a meal with your family for the wedding banquet. Don't invite people from the village. They talk nonsense all day long and want to see our family laugh. Let them eat and it will be a waste of food."

Anyway, you will have to speak ill of them whether you invite them or not. Fang Jiawang doesn’t want to invite them to this meal. Why don’t you keep the good food and meat for yourself?

"Don't talk nonsense. Getting married is a big deal. How can we not invite people from the village?"

Fang Datian was a man of great dignity. People had already told him that his son was the son-in-law, so naturally the wedding banquet had to be held in a more dignified manner to stop their mouths.

"It's still early for the wedding banquet. Let's talk about the dowry first."

Mrs. Liang quickly grabbed the old man to tell him not to be disappointed, and turned to look at Fang Jiawang again.

"I'll make two sturdy dowry boxes for you, and make some wooden basins and barrels. The Hu family has the big furniture, so I won't buy it. I'll prepare some extra dowry money for you."

After hearing that his mother said that she would prepare more dowry money for him, the Fang family asked with a smile on their faces:

"Mom, how much dowry do you want to give me?"

"When your eldest and second brothers got married, each of them spent about five taels of silver. I will also give you five taels of silver as a dowry when you get married."

Mrs. Liang's bowl of water was flat and she prepared the same amount of money for her three sons. No one could find fault with it.

But after finishing speaking, he still glanced at the two daughters-in-law.

Li reacted quickly and said immediately: "That's right. From now on, when the third child lives in the Hu family, he still needs to bring some private money with him."

"Yes, sister-in-law is right, it's up to you, father and mother, to make up your mind on this matter." Huang's reaction was not slow and she quickly agreed.

The two also knew that the Hu family planned to give a dowry gift of 20 taels of silver. As the third child had said before, he would take half of the dowry gift and leave the remaining half to honor the couple.

Even if they were given 5 taels of silver, the old couple would still have 5 taels on hand.

Fang Jiawang didn't expect his family to be so generous. With these 5 taels of silver, he would have 15 taels of personal money.

He wished that it would be five days later. If he didn't get the money in his hands, he would feel uneasy after all.

As for the matchmaking gift to Father Ye, Fang Jiawang planned to give 500 Wen.

There is no way, he only has so much money on hand, and he can't compare with the wealthy Hu family.

Although he caught a lot of pheasants and rabbits these days, most of them were taken home.

The one or two that he occasionally sold were bought by him and brought to the Hu family to show his courtesy.

Thinking that Father Ye had introduced him to such a good marriage, the five hundred coins were indeed a little short. Fang Jiawang planned to go up the mountain to lay down a few more traps in the next two days and send two pheasants there.

The marriage was finally settled, and Fang Jiawang fell asleep smiling at night.

And I also dreamed about Hu Shengnan, and dreamed that the two were getting married in the church.

When he woke up the next morning, Fang Jiawang found himself hugging the pillow tightly.

Fang Jiawang threw the pillow aside in disappointment and quickly got up to go up the mountain.

He planned to hunt more prey and come back. In addition to sending it to Father Ye, he also wanted to save more money.

Father Ye set up a connection with Fang Jiawang and introduced him to the Hu family as their son-in-law. This matter could not be hidden since the Hu family came to the door.

Knowing that Fang Jiawang was about to go to town to eat and drink popular food, the second-rate men and old bachelors from several nearby villages couldn't sit still.

I am no worse than this pretty boy.

They all thought about asking Father Ye to help introduce a daughter from a wealthy family, and she could become a son-in-law.

Many women who wanted to marry their daughters-in-law even came to see Father Ye.

For a time, there was an endless stream of people coming to Ye's house.

Father Ye is either busy setting up a stall on North Street or going to the villages below to sell goods every day, so he has no time to deal with these people.

Old Mrs. Ye simply took over the matter and became a matchmaker with the Autumn Harvest Lady. Every day was very busy and very busy.
