As soon as I was reborn, my fiancé came to propose marriage!
Chapter 24: This, is this the third son’s wife?
The sky gradually darkened. Zheng and Chen's father were walking back. They had finally finished preparing for tomorrow, and Zheng felt relieved.
Because it was close to the end of the year, the butcher still had a lot of New Year pigs left. She went to his house and ordered the pork for tomorrow's banquet with just a word. She also invited a few old sisters who she was good friends with to come over tomorrow to help prepare the dishes. Then she asked her eldest son and second son to tell the families of their close relatives the news and invite them to the banquet tomorrow.
Everything was almost ready. Seeing that Zheng was still looking worried, Father Chen stopped and asked, "Mother, what's wrong with you? Aren't everything ready? Why do you still look so depressed?"
Zheng sighed and said, "Hey, he spent ten taels of silver to marry a daughter-in-law. The third brother's family assets must have been emptied, right? I don't know if this girl is easy to get along with. Do you think a family that can pay ten taels of silver can really raise a sensible girl? The third brother is probably lying to us. He said that the girl is the best in the world. What if she is restless and turns the family upside down?"
Father Chen patted her on the back and consoled her: "After all, the third child has married, so you can rest assured."
Zheng could only think so.
When she reached the door of her house, she found that Old Mrs. Zhao from next door was lying on the ground and looking inside through the crack of their door. When Zheng walked up to her, she was startled.
Old Mrs. Zhao smiled awkwardly: "Cui Fen, you're back so soon?"
Zheng wanted to roll her eyes in her heart. If you don't come back, are you waiting for me to come and steal? She could only respond with, "Aunt Zhao, what are you doing at my door?"
Old Mrs. Zhao rolled her eyes and said maliciously, "What are you cooking today? It smells so good. My little grandson is crying for it. The child has hurt his throat from crying so much. Why don't you give him a taste?"
After she said that, she took out a dirty big bowl from her arms and handed it to him.
Even the food was ready, but Zheng pretended not to see it, walked home and slammed the door.
"Bah, what's so great about that? You're a heartless woman who doesn't even care about your child. No wonder your mother-in-law dislikes you when you look so stingy." Old Mrs. Zhao cursed at the door.
Zheng sniffed hard and found that the food at home smelled really good today. She didn't even notice the old lady Zhao who was trying to get something for free at the door just now.
Her niece went to her parents' home to notify people and must not have returned yet. Only the eldest daughter-in-law Wang and Qiqi were left at home. She knew Wang's cooking skills and her cooking was just passable.
As for Qiqi, this girl asked her to cook with Wang, and it was good enough that she didn't make a fuss. But she even cooked so deliciously. There was really something wrong.
Father Chen was not so patient. There hadn't been such a fragrant smell in the house for a long time. No, it had never been there before.
He quickly took two steps at a time and reached the kitchen door, eager to see today's meal.
The two walked to the kitchen and ran into Cui Wenzhu who was carrying out the dishes. The three of them looked at each other and were stunned. It was Cui Yunzhu who hesitated for a moment and shouted, "Dad, Mom, you are back. Let's eat quickly. Everything is ready."
Only then did they realize, this, this is the third son’s wife?
With such a beautiful face and such good complexion, I wonder how good-looking the children she will give birth to will be. Zheng suddenly understood the third child a little.
I have to say that Chen Yan was really wronged. He didn't come here for looks, and was misunderstood by his parents, haha.
The person involved also came over at this time. After Chen Yan put the things back, he thought about it and realized that his wife was a clean girl, so he cleaned his room carefully from inside to outside to make her more comfortable at night. Thinking of the night, his ears started to turn red again, but when he saw Zheng and others coming back, he immediately returned to normal.
He walked forward, took the dish from Cui Yunzhu's hand and placed it on the dining table in the main room.
Most of the common people in the Great Xia Dynasty lived in mud-brick houses, such as Cui Yunzhu's family in Xiaoqiao Village and the Chen family in Yulin Village.
Including the kitchen, the Chen family has a total of six rooms. The main house is directly opposite the gate, and the kitchen is behind it. The two rooms on the left side are occupied by the old couple and the second couple, and the two rooms on the right are occupied by Chen Qiqi and Chen Yan, who are not yet married. There is also a vegetable garden in the house, next to the kitchen.
Because it was cold in winter, everyone ate in the main room.
After putting the dishes on the table, Chen Yan suddenly pulled Cui Yunzhu over and introduced her to Zheng and Chen's father in a serious tone, "Dad, Mom, this is Yunzhu, your future daughter-in-law. She has a hard life at home. Her parents are not kind and her sisters are not nice. That's why I took the initiative to let her in. If you want to blame someone, blame me. We will formally offer tea to you two elders after the banquet tomorrow."
"Originally, I asked the matchmaker to discuss the matter and it was planned that the marriage would take place in two days. It doesn't matter if it's a day earlier or later. Please take a seat."
When Zheng saw Chen Yan's defensive look, she couldn't show it even though she felt a little uncomfortable. Moreover, this girl had cooked a table of dishes on her first day at home. How could she show her displeasure to others?
"Qiqi, leave some for your eldest brother and the others. Then we'll start eating. The weather is cold and it will get cold if we don't eat now." Father Chen couldn't help but want to pick up his chopsticks.
"I've already left it here. Don't worry, Dad. It was my third sister-in-law who reminded me of this."
"What's that smell so good?"
When Cui Yunzhu heard the voice coming from behind her, her body suddenly stiffened, but quickly returned to normal. However, Chen Yan still saw it. He restrained his expression and now was not the time to ask.
Wang walked over slowly with her son Chen Shun by her hand. Her eyes lit up when she saw the dishes on the table. "There's meat today. My, my parents really care about the third son. When they heard that the third son was going to get married, they even prepared such delicious dishes. They spent so much money before even having the wedding banquet."
"What you said, sister-in-law, sounds like we don't have meat to eat normally. That means Shunzi eats the most meat. Do parents favor Shunzi more?"
Chen Qiqi was furious when she saw Wang. Her mother had clearly asked two people to cook before she went out, but she said she had to take care of the children and hid in the house and refused to come out. Fortunately, her third sister-in-law came, otherwise, with her cooking skills, she would have definitely ruined the meat.
"Shun Zi is the only grandson of the Chen family. It's normal even if we show some favoritism." Wang was quite proud.
"We still have Yaoyao at home!"
"That little girl Chen Yao can't be compared with my Shunzi, who is the root of the Chen family." Wang said with disdain.
