Crossing the Qinghe Landlord gl

Zhang He doesn't like Zhang Bing and Zhang Hun's family, but it's one thing for her not to like it, and another thing is the etiquette in the family.It would be no problem if she didn't invite the two families normally, but this time for her big wedding, not only Zhang Tingguan will come, but Liu's will also come. Zhang Bing and Zhang Hun are her cousins, and they are in the same village. It really doesn't make sense not to invite them.

She asked Zhang Xian: "Does Lu'er want my uncles to come to drink wedding wine?"

Zhang Xian didn't think it was so complicated, he only made a decision based on his own likes and dislikes, curled his lips and said, "I don't want it."

"Okay, then we won't invite them!" Zhang He resolutely dismissed the idea of ​​entertaining them, and she also wanted to be willful according to her likes and dislikes.

Zhang He paid the tax without burden, but the Xia family was still worrying about the Xia tax.

Taxes had to be paid at the end of June, and the rice in the rice fields was ripe at this time. Taking advantage of the good weather, the Xia family mobilized the whole family to harvest the rice early.In the past six months, the women of the Xia family have taken turns to weave, and there is enough silk cloth, so during the harvesting days, all men, women and children have to go out.

Xia Da originally wanted Xia Jiniang to stay at home to prepare for the wedding in early July, but when Xia Hui came to make trouble, the Xia family was almost in chaos.

Since matchmaker Chen went back that day and told Xia Hui the news that Xia Jiniang was going to marry Zhang He, Xia Hui wanted to come to the door to make fun of it, but fortunately, matchmaker Chen told the story that Third Aunt Xia intended to marry the Xia family.Xia Hui thought to herself: Although Xia Su Niang's appearance and figure are not as good as Xia Jiniang's, and she has never read a book, the advantage is that her hands and feet are still diligent.

So she agreed to the marriage and asked Matchmaker Chen to make a post as soon as possible.But when Matchmaker Chen arrived at Xia's house, San Xia and Aunt Xia refused to admit the matter. Although Matchmaker Chen was angry at their shamelessness, he had no choice but to leave without making a draft post.

Xia Hui heard Huang Yu crying and complaining that Fang Ying refused to conceive until now, and he had to take his so-called fiancée to sell miserably, hoping that Fang Ying would understand his difficulties for the sake of his fiancée.But turning around, Matchmaker Chen told her that Xia's family had backed down again, and Xia Hui was in a hurry, so she ran to Xia's house to make trouble.

Only then did Old Man Xia know that Aunt Xia wanted to marry Xia Su Niang to Huang Yu behind his back, and he was angry, but Xia San also said that they didn't make a draft post, but just verbal words, which could not be counted.

Xia Hui persisted: "Why don't you count, your words count too!"

"Even if the verbal words count, can't we go back on our word?"

"Brother, since San'er proposed marriage, how can you go back on it?" Xia Hui said to Old Man Xia.

"Why can't you go back on your word? Your grandson did such a thing, and you still want to cheat the marriage?" Xia San said.

Xia Hui was nervous: "What's the matter, what nonsense are you talking about?"

The old man Xia told what he knew, Xia Hui did not expect that the Xia family would find out such a secret, but instead of retreating, she started crying: "Brother, you also know that the only soul in my family is Brother Yu This bloodline, how can he let him marry? After marrying, the children will have to follow Fang's family name, and my family will be extinct, how can you bear it, big brother?"

"The mistakes he made should be borne by himself," Old Man Xia said.

"Brother, are you trying to force Ling Zhi to die? He is your nephew! If brother Yu is arrested by the government, how can Ling Zhi live, and how can I live?"

"When something like this happens, you should go to Fang's family, instead of just talking about a marriage for him, it can be avoided!"

Xia Hui said: "It's just that the Fang family bullied people too much. I have nowhere to go, so I can only propose marriage to brother Yu. I hope that the young lady of the Fang family will see it for Su Niang's sake, and ask her not to spoil the relationship between brother Yu and Su Niang." If the husband and wife are separated, she may soften her heart and lose the fetus, and she will not ask the government to pursue it anymore!"

She also promised a lot of benefits. When San Xia and Aunt Xia heard it, they were a little moved, thinking that it was just a girl's film, and she could marry without a dowry, not to mention, there is such a generous dowry...

But Xia Su Niang didn't want it, and San Xia beat and scolded her, she didn't want it in a daze, and finally resisted by going on a hunger strike.Old man Xia was so angry that he almost fell ill, scolded Xia Su Niang for being unfilial, and wanted to drive her out of the house. Fortunately, Xia Luojin, who came back from the state school on vacation, persuaded him, but he still grounded Xia Su Niang.

Xia Jiniang did not expect that Xia Su Niang, who is always very cautious, would suddenly be so staunch.After chatting with Xia Su Niang for a long time, she realized that Xia Su Niang was actually not strong, but rather weak.

Xia Su Niang knew that if she married into the Huang family without a dowry, she would be in a more like a maidservant, relying on the Huang family's charity for everything.Moreover, she couldn't go to Fang's house to ask Fang Ying to fulfill her and Huang Yu's embarrassing things. She knew that once she did this, whether she would be divorced or not, but she would be ridiculed for the rest of her life was a certainty. of.

She was afraid, so she would rather fight for the marriage before it was settled than face such pain.

Xia Jiniang asked again: "If you didn't know about the Huang family, would you have married him?"

Xia Su Niang was silent, but Xia Jiniang knew that the answer was inevitable.

It was spread in the village that such a thing happened when the Xia family was preparing for a great event for Xia Jiniang, but at least Xia Su Niang did not do anything unexpected, otherwise Xia Jiniang's marriage would have to be put on hold.

With Xia Luojin at home, San Xia didn't mention the matter of letting Xia Suniang marry Huang Yu for a while, so she was called out to work in the field again.

Xia Luojin can stay at home for a month during this holiday, which is a holiday given by state schools, county schools, and major academies, so that these farmers can go home to help harvest.And Xia Luojin happened to be able to catch up with Xia Jiniang's marriage.

However, regarding Xia Jiniang's marriage, he was a little depressed, and asked Xia Da: "Why didn't Dad tell me, so that I can help Ji Niang see how Zhang Erlang is?"

Xia laughed loudly and said, "Don't worry, Jin'er, I have met your mother a long time ago, he is a very good young man."

Xia Luojin saw that Xia Cui was full of praise for Zhang He, and Xia Jiniang did not show any dissatisfaction, so he was relieved.However, he knew that some people thought that it was wrong for the Zhang family and the Xia family to belong to different households. The Xia family had overtaken the Zhang family, so he secretly decided that he must take the exam well in the coming year. !

All fifteen members of the Xia family went to the fields, and within a few days, they had harvested [-] mu of rice, and the next step was threshing.Old man Xia's waist is not good, and he was already lying on the bed after harvesting, unable to move, and the threshing work was left to Xia Da and other strong men.

One person holds a handful of straw in his hand, and vigorously shakes the straw onto the erected tripod wooden frame and stone slab on the spread out mat, and some use it on the edge of the grain bucket to prevent the grain from splashing.After this is done, the grains are spread out to dry in the hot sun, and then the rice is pounded or husked with a mill.

At the end of the month, the Xia family finally paid the summer tax and miscellaneous taxes such as three-color miscellaneous money. Xia Cui thought that if Xia Cui hadn't bought a dowry for Xia Jiniang long ago, after the summer tax was paid, she would have no capital expenses. money.

On June [-]th, the make-up buns sent by Zhang's family also arrived at Xia's family. After being busy, the Xia's family finally realized that Xia Jiniang's wedding was imminent.

Xia Jiniang was also a little dazed, she took out the Futou and robes and handed them over to the matchmaker, asking her to help bring them back to Zhang He.The Futou and the robe were sewed in her spare time since she agreed to Zhang He's marriage proposal. Although she didn't know Zhang He's size, but her figure was similar to Xia Luojin's, she followed Xia Luojin's. The size is to be sewn, and some places have been slightly modified.

"I should have asked about her size a long time ago." Xia Jiniang murmured to herself, and suddenly remembered that she and Zhang He hadn't seen each other for nearly two months.She remembered what Zhang Xian said that Zhang He would suffer from abdominal pain every few months during menstruation, and if she counted the days carefully, it was these few days, no one took care of her and she didn't know what would happen to her when she was in pain!

Just thinking about this in her heart, Xia Su Niang came in from the outside.

Since Xia Jiniang was about to get married, Xia Su Niang temporarily lived in the house of Xia Jiniang's second brother Xia Luosi, who was away all year round, so she must have come here to find her.

"Su Niang, what's the matter?"

Xia Su Niang was a little hesitant, and Xia Jiniang smiled slightly: "My sister, you may as well speak up if you have something to say."

"Kong Dalang sent me to tell my sister that he wants to see you." Xia Su Niang gritted her teeth, and she also knew that Xia Jiniang was going to marry Zhang He, but Kong Rong still came to look for her, which was tantamount to embarrassing her.But Kong Rong's pitiful appearance also made her feel unbearable, so she agreed, she just sent a message, Xia Jiniang decided whether to go or not.

"What is he looking for?" Xia Jiniang asked.

Xia Su Niang shook her head, and said: "He only said to wait for you at the bridge of the Chen family."

Xia Jiniang smiled and said: "He knows I won't go. If you have already brought it for him, don't worry about it. I won't be at Xia's house in two days. Let's talk."

Xia Su Niang sat down in front of her and looked at the gift boxes in the room, as well as the gold bracelets, gold rings, and gold pendants.When she was so old, she only saw gold ornaments in the dowry of Xia Luojin's wife, Xu Shi. Later, Xu Shi also pawned it to help Xia Luojin study. This is the gold jewelry she saw the closest.

"Sister is good, she can marry the man you want." She said enviously.

"Yeah." Xia Jiniang responded softly, "Actually, she didn't have to do this for me." She thought that Zhang He would only deal with the standards of a middle-class family, but she never thought that once this matter happened to Zhang He The family's intervention became grand.

She didn't need Zhang He to go bankrupt because of this matter, but she knew better that this just showed Zhang He's seriousness. She used everything to suppress the people of Xia's family, otherwise, how could she be in the Huang's family without even a servant? Do what she promised under the persecution of her?

"What did my sister say? The more grand the wedding, the more important he is to my sister, doesn't it? Who in Liujiaqiao Village would dare to laugh at my sister for not wanting her!" Xia Su Niang said, she was looking forward to having Zhang He in her heart. Such a person can marry her, but she also knows that she has no such luck.

With a gentle smile on Xia Jiniang's face, she took out a sweat towel to wipe off the sweat, then got up and took out an exquisite hairpin from her vanity box to Xia Suniang, saying: "I don't need this hairpin, I will give it to you as a gift." you."

Xia Su Niang's eyes lit up, but she didn't ask for it: "Is this from the Zhang family? Why did my sister give it to me?"

"I bought this last time I went to the city. You have been using wooden hairpins all the time, and the hairpins are a bit old, so I bought you a hairpin specially."

"Thank you, sister." Xia Su Niang then accepted the hairpin. She happily inserted it into the bun, looked at the bronze mirror again, and asked Xia Jiniang, "Is it pretty, sister?"

"Well, it's beautiful!"

Xia Su Niang went out from the house, Aunt Xia saw this and asked her what she had taken, she pointed carefully to the hairpin on her finger.Third Aunt Xia scolded angrily: "It's really useless, I won't ask her to take two sura!"

Luo Ke silk fabrics are worth two pennies per piece, and Zhang He gave away six pieces, not to mention the miscellaneous silk cloth, which was a full thirty.

Xia Suniang didn't speak, and Third Aunt Xia could only secretly hate her for not being able to attract Zhang He's attention, and even more hated that Xia Ji Niang was so scheming, not only robbed Zhang He, but also ruined her marriage with the Huang family!

Xia Jiniang didn't know what Aunt Xia was thinking, even if she knew, she would laugh it off.The betrothal gifts from Zhang He were basically hidden by Xia Cuishi. After all, she wanted to buy a dowry for Xia Jiniang, so she had to exchange these betrothal gifts for some clothing expenses.

Although the members of the Xia family were greedy, the old man Xia didn't ask him for these betrothal gifts after Xia Da blamed himself last time.Xia Er and Xia San approached Xia Da to make side attacks. Xia Da just pretended to be stupid, which made them very angry. When Xia Da's family went to Zhang He's house to lay the dowry utensils, they were unwilling to help. In the end, the old man Xia got angry and they followed help.

With the help of Mrs. Li and other neighbors, Zhang He’s house has been hung with festive ribbons. The beds, tables and chairs in the house have also been replaced with new ones. The cowshed and chicken coop have been cleaned up. They were temporarily taken to Aunt Li's house to look after, and most of the chickens and ducks in the chicken coop were used for slaughter and wedding banquets.

Xia Er and Xia San were a little disappointed when they arrived at Qinghe Village. They thought it was in Zhangjiazhuang Village or Fuzhou City, so they could get in touch with the Zhang family.

Zhang He was busy, so Aunt Li came to tell her that people from the Xia family had arrived.She hurried out of the door to have a look, only to see Xia Da coming.

"My father-in-law, why did you come in person?"

Xia laughed and said, "Can't I come in person?"

"How come? Please come in quickly." Zhang He said.

Xia Da walked in front, Xia Er and Xia San followed and looked around.They felt that the mansion was not as grand as they had imagined, and although the house showed signs of repair, it was still old, but even so, it was incomparable to their Xia family.

Xia Luojin was behind them, but he was a scholar, bowed to Zhang He, and reported his family name: "I am Ji Niang's elder brother, named Luo Jin, styled Liangxing."

"Zhang He has met his brother-in-law, but I haven't picked up the words yet." Zhang He said hurriedly.This was the first time she saw Xia Luojin. He was similar in figure to her, and his face was extremely clean. With his frail appearance and his Confucian clothes, one could tell that he was a scholar studying hard in the cold window.

"Then I'll call you Erlang too, you can call me Liangxing." Xia Luojin said.

"Brother Liangxing, please come in quickly!"

Xia Luojin nodded and entered the room. He had been sizing up Zhang He just now. Although she was thin and thin, she didn't seem to be able to protect Xia Jiniang, but her modest attitude and elegant demeanor prevented him from feeling disgusted.

Besides the four of them, Xia Luoguan also came, but Zhang He had already seen him, so he didn't pay much attention to him.After they laid out the dowry utensils, they were treated to a drink, and then Xia Shi urged them to rush back to Xia's house.

The author has something to say: Although it seems to be a transitional chapter, it is actually essential. After all, it is impossible to cover the two-month period in one go.

Getting married tomorrow (^o^)/~
