When Zheng Dashan came back, he was followed by a dozen people.

Zhao Laosan and his colleagues were pushing carts with the finished adobe bricks placed on them.

The area of ​​Zheng Xiaoman's front yard is not too big, and more than a dozen people built the wall of the yard in one day.

After dinner in the evening, only Zhao Laosan and a few others stayed at Zheng's house to talk.

Yang Changqing looked at the few people who stayed behind and told them what he and Zheng Xiaoman had discussed.

Zhao Laosan was the first to speak up: "This thief is so bold that he dared to come to our Wangjia Village to steal things. Don't worry, second brother, leave this matter to us. We guarantee that we can catch these two little thieves for you."

Wang Dahai also said, "That's right. If they dare to come to my second brother's house to steal things, I will break their legs when I catch them."

Everyone was talking at once, and finally the person to ambush at home was chosen.

Time passed quickly. The day before Zheng Xiaogu's wedding, Zheng Dashan drove a pig from his home to the old house to kill it.

The two big pigs in his family have grown to weigh nearly 200 kilograms, and are just waiting to be slaughtered when Zheng Xiaogu gets married.

The Zheng family's old house was also very lively today, and many families in the village came to help.

Zheng Xiaoman sat in his aunt's room, listening to the miserable cries coming from the big fat pig in the yard outside.

Even though she felt a little reluctant, it definitely wouldn't affect her from eating a few more bites of the pig-killing dish later.

Zheng Xiaoman turned around and looked at her aunt, "Aunt, you are getting married tomorrow. Do you feel nervous now?"

In her previous life, she heard that girls would be nervous the day before their wedding, and some would even show symptoms of fear of marriage.

Zheng Chunhua tilted his head and thought for a while, "I think it's okay. Rather than being nervous, I'm more a little apprehensive.

From tomorrow onwards I will leave the home where I have lived for more than ten years and go to live in an unfamiliar environment.

I don’t know if I can adapt well, and I don’t know what kind of life I will face in the future.”

Zheng Xiaoman held her aunt's hand and said, "Don't be afraid, aunt. With grandparents and my parents here, you will never be wronged. If your uncle dares to bully you, I will let my father beat him up."

Zheng Chunhua looked at the little girl's serious face and suddenly laughed.

I was feeling a little nervous at first, but now I felt a lot more relaxed.

That's right, she still has her family who loves her. They are her greatest support and retreat. What else is there to be afraid of?

Zheng Chunhua looked at her niece and asked with a smile: "Xiaoman, have you ever thought about what kind of person you want to marry in the future?"

Zheng Xiaoman really thought about it seriously before saying: "The person I want to marry doesn't have to be rich, but he must be down-to-earth and hardworking. He doesn't have to be very smart, but he must be honest and reasonable.

The most important thing is that the other person must love and care for me, and always stand by my side. When I am bullied, he or she will stand up to protect me. "

What she is looking for is a husband, not a judge, and she doesn't need him to judge whether she is right or wrong.

Zheng Chunhua felt that what her niece said made sense. If her man didn't stand on her side, wouldn't she be isolated and helpless in that strange home?

She rubbed her niece’s head and said, “I didn’t expect you to think so much, but what you said makes sense.

When you find a husband in the future, I will definitely help you choose one and find you a husband that suits your taste."

Zheng Xiaoman chuckled and said, "I'm still young, I'm not in a hurry."

While the aunt and nephew were talking in the house, the big fat pig outside was bled and moved to the chopping board.

Their family definitely couldn't use such a big pig, so they only kept 50 kilograms of pork and sold the rest.

Old Mrs. Zheng and Zhou Chunfeng took the remaining meat to the kitchen and marinated it with salt first.

The weather is too hot now, and the meat won’t keep if it’s not marinated.

Old Mrs. Zheng also saved the pig's offal, pig's head, and pig's trotters. They can be used for the wedding banquet at home tomorrow.

She also left some ribs, and her granddaughter's braised ribs were her favorite.

After removing these, there were still about 100 kilograms of pork left, and many people from the village came to buy some to take home.

The pigs in Zheng Xiaoman's family are fat, and the meat is full of fat, and tastes better than the ones they buy outside.

It didn't take long before the only remaining pork was some lean meat and ribs, and the rest was sold.

Old Mrs. Zheng would take the food that couldn’t be sold to the kitchen, pickle it with salt, and keep it for herself to eat slowly.

If all else fails, you can ask your granddaughter to make smoked meat, which can be kept longer.

Two tables were set up at home in the evening to entertain the people who were coming to help the next day.

Early the next morning, the whole family went to the old house.

Zhao Laosan and his companions came to Zheng Dashan's house before dawn and quietly hid in the house.

Today, Zheng Qingming and Lixia also took leave and came to the old house to help.

When Zheng Xiaoman went to the old house, he took Xiao Huang with him.

She was afraid that if she left the dog behind, the two thieves would poison it to death.

She has raised this dog since it was a puppy. It is no different from her family member. She cannot let it be poisoned to death like this.

The big yellow dog stuck out its tongue and walked around Zheng Xiaoman, rubbing her legs with its big head from time to time.

Zheng Xiaoman touched its head and put a rope around its neck.

There are many guests at the old house today, so we definitely can’t let the dog run around.

Zheng Xiaoman took him to the backyard with a rope and tied him up: "Xiao Huang, you have to be a good boy today. I'll bring you some bones later."

"Woof woof" Xiao Huang sat there obediently and barked at Zheng Xiaoman twice.

Zheng Xiaoman patted its head with satisfaction, "So good."

Here, the bride's family will make a lot of dumplings in the morning, and then serve the dumplings to the bride's family when they arrive.

When Zheng Xiaoman returned to the front yard, everyone was making dumplings in the yard.

Zhou Chunfeng handed a bowl of dumplings to Zheng Xiaoman, "Go, go into the house and let your aunt eat something first."

"Oh, I understand, mom."

Zheng Xiaoman took the dumplings and carried the bowl into his aunt's room.

Zheng Chunhua in the room was wearing a red wedding dress and her hair was tied into a bun with a silver hairpin.

This silver hairpin was a dowry given to her by Zhou Chunfeng. In addition to the hairpin, there was also a pair of silver bracelets, and she was also given five taels of silver as a dowry.

The sister-in-law has helped their family a lot over the years. Now that the family is rich, Zhou Chunfeng will definitely not be stingy.

When Zheng Chunhua received the dowry from her second sister-in-law, she was so moved that she burst into tears.

Her parents also prepared a dowry for her and gave her two taels of silver.

She also took all the betrothal gifts given by the man's family.

Adding what her second brother and his wife gave her, her dowry now amounts to more than ten taels of silver.

As for my eldest brother’s family, it’s better not to mention them.

My eldest brother and his wife came over yesterday. My eldest brother just came to see her, said a few words to her and left.

The sister-in-law didn't even come over, as if she was a stranger.

Was Zheng Chunhua angry? She wasn't really angry.

Since she never had any expectations of her elder brother and sister-in-law, how could she be angry and disappointed?
