Double Life: My whole world is you

At this time, the dumplings were ready, and the aunt brought them to her and sat down beside her. Cheng's mother handed them to her with tears in her eyes, "Child, it's winter, eat something hot."

"Thank you, auntie." Cheng Kun's future wife, Xiao Cao, picked up the chopsticks and started eating quickly.

No one spoke. After she finished eating, she continued, "His mother scolded me for being shameless, and his father called him timidly. After I cried and threatened him again and again, he agreed to meet me. He wanted me to abort the baby, but I disagreed. We persisted like this for a month. Although he broke up with his girlfriend, he still didn't want to marry me. However, my period was getting worse and worse. What should I do if I don't get married? My parents also beat and scolded me when I went back."

Cheng Qiao shook her head. There must be something hateful about pitiful people! But young girls are always easily bewitched by men's words. What is youth? ! There are not so many rational people! But there is no way, sometimes one wrong step will lead to all wrong steps! Girls, you must learn to love yourself and protect yourself from childhood!

When Cheng Qiao came to her senses, her mother wiped away the tears from her eyes and said distressedly, "Child, I understand your difficulties now, but although we are their direct relatives, our relationship is not good. We can't help!"

Cheng Qiao looked at the haggard face of the girl opposite her, and she still felt a little distressed. Cheng Kun's wife was not bad. In the previous life, she married Cheng Kun for more than ten years and gave birth to a son and a daughter for him. Cheng Kun was playful and didn't work hard, but for more than ten years, she still stayed with Cheng Kun and took care of the housework. The tribe had a high opinion of her and said that Cheng Kun was blessed.

Cheng Qiao thought with some evil interest, Cheng Kun has not married in this life, should she sow discord between them so that they can't get married? It can also be regarded as revenge on those so-called relatives. But the child in her belly is innocent! And the little sister Cao opposite seems to love Cheng Kun terribly. Cheng Qiao sighed, that's all, she is getting better and better in this life, as long as those so-called relatives don't bother her anymore, she doesn't want to have anything to do with them. So she raised her head and said, "Well, I can take you to my aunt, maybe she can persuade them."

"Really? That's great!" A hint of joy appeared on her haggard face.

"I'll go with you!" Cheng Qiao walked over to support her, and then motioned to Xiaoyanzi to hold her other side. Cheng's mother wanted to catch up, and when she reached the door, Cheng Qiao said, "Mom, my aunt is too busy in the store to take care of it alone, I can take her there, it's not far."

Cheng's mother nodded, but she didn't forget to remind him, "Slow down."

"Yeah." Cheng Qiao nodded, turned around and helped her to Cheng Gu's fruit stand. She briefly explained the purpose of their visit. Cheng Gu was happy and conflicted. After all, Cheng Kun was her nephew, and she was definitely happy that he could get married and have children. But she was also really afraid of Cheng Kun's mother, her eldest sister-in-law!

After hesitating for a moment, Cheng Gu decided to call Cheng Kun first and asked him to go to his house for dinner in the evening. Then she called Cheng Qiao's uncle and uncle respectively, but didn't say anything, just asked them to go to her house for dinner in the evening. After arranging these, she asked Cheng Qiao to help this little sister-in-law Cao go to her house.

After Cheng Qiao sent the people away and was about to leave, this young lady Cao quickly turned around and grabbed her, "Qiao, can you stay with me? And there are so many adults around, I'm scared."

"Well." Cheng Qiao pulled her hand away. "Sorry, I still have to go to evening self-study."

"You're going to the evening self-study class!" She had a hint of envy in her eyes, "I heard that you have very good grades."

Cheng Qiao nodded and replied, "Not bad."

"Can I leave your cell phone number? Can I call you if I need anything?" she asked again as she chased him to the door.

"Sorry, I don't have a cell phone." Cheng Qiao refused. But seeing the anxiety in her eyes, Cheng Qiao softened and said, "I'll talk to my aunt and ask my cousin to come back to accompany you."

"Okay, thank you, Qiao." She reached out again, trying to grab Cheng Qiao's hand. But Cheng Qiao quickly stepped back. She smiled at her, "Take care."

After Cheng Qiao went down the stairs, she looked back and saw her standing at the window of the restaurant, watching. Cheng Qiao retracted her gaze and left resolutely. For this little sister-in-law Cao, she had done her best.

After returning home, Cheng Qiao buried herself in her books and studied hard. She had to face the final exam next. She couldn't worry about Xiao Cao and Cheng Kun. To her, it was just a side issue and she didn't want to get involved.

It was only two weeks later that she heard about the changes from Cheng Gu. After Cheng Gu and Xiao Cao's parents talked with Cheng Kun and his parents, and her cousin seemed to have intervened, they finally set the wedding date.

Because of the local custom, a family is only allowed to have one wedding per year, no matter it is a red wedding or a white wedding. Because Cheng Kun's sister got married during the summer vacation, so they can't get married this year and can only wait until after the Chinese New Year. But Xiao Cao's belly couldn't wait, so the date was finally set on the sixth day of the Chinese New Year.

There are two steps before marriage. One is to recognize relatives, where the man goes to the woman's home to meet her direct relatives. The other is to announce the date, where the man and woman agree on the date of the wedding, and the man takes the betrothal gifts and gift list to the woman's home to announce the date. The last step is to invite relatives and friends to a banquet to welcome the bride.

However, in order to save money, Chengkun's family made an excuse that his sister was getting married that year, so the family could not hold a wedding that year, and thus skipped these two steps.

Cheng Qiao smiled after hearing this, but did not express her opinion. She just listened to it as gossip. As the final exam was approaching, she was under a lot of pressure.

But the day before the exam, Cheng Qiao heard the gossip again. It was January 1, also a weekend, and Cheng Qiao brought lunch to Cheng Gu at noon. When Cheng Gu saw her, she chatted with her about Cheng Gu and Xiao Cao's gossip, "Your mother is really amazing! We had agreed on a betrothal gift of 23 yuan. She cut it down to 8888 yuan."

Cheng Qiao was afraid that she had heard it wrong, so she checked with Cheng Gu, "Six thousand?"

"Yes! Your madam thinks it's too high and is going to bargain it down to 4,800." Cheng Gu shook her head and said, "Nowadays, which girl doesn't get married for more than 20,000? She is totally degrading other girls."

Cheng Qiao was speechless. What could the woman do with a few thousand yuan? Cheng Qiao remembered that when she got married in her last life, the four-piece suit cost nearly 2023 yuan. Not to mention the meat and gifts for each relative. There were also banquets and other things. Just a rough calculation showed that the woman would have spent tens of thousands! Oh, she was married in 12! That was years later, so it was incomparable.

But then I heard Cheng Gu continue to say, "Your family only gave this much as a dowry, and you asked others to compensate you with a motorcycle!"

Cheng Qiao smiled and nodded. This made sense! How could her lady do a business that would lose money? !

"When your sister got married, she asked your brother-in-law's family for a dowry of 48,000 yuan!" Aunt Cheng complained, "That little Cao is so weak, she will be the boss in the future!"

Cheng Qiao sighed, and said, "Bad guys are blessed!" Although Cheng Kun got married early, he still found a good wife. His wife has been showing off at home for many years. Cheng Gu works hard at home every day. Cousin Yong got married late, and he has no ability, and his cousin's wife can't support the family. Cheng Gu retired and not only had to help take care of the children, but also had to pay for her pension.

Just as Cheng Qiao was sighing with regret, Cheng Gu also sighed, "Cheng Kun is 92 years old, and he just turned 18. Your cousin is three years older than him! He doesn't even know when he's going to get married?!"

"Aunt, your children and grandchildren have their own blessings." Cheng Qiao consoled, "Sometimes fate is also predetermined." This cousin of her aunt's is also a powerful man. He has been dating since he graduated from junior high school. He has dated as many people as a pair of hands, and the ones introduced by others are no less than those he has dated. But the cousin's wife in the end is good-looking, but she has a history of mental illness and needs medication all year round. It can only be said that cousin Yong and Cheng Kun are of the same type, but Cheng Kun is more blessed!

"We don't even know when your cousin is getting married!" Cheng Gu returned to reality and asked Cheng Qiao, "Your cousin has a boyfriend, did you know that?"
