butcher's little man

On the tenth day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar, it is advisable to hire, dismiss, and worship the stove.

In July, the weather was already very hot. In order to get to Tian Xiaoman's house early, Li Wenxuan went out early with his brothers who helped.Because of the long distance, the hired goods had already been transported to the home of a distant relative of Li Wenxuan, who lived in the neighboring village of Tian Xiaoman.It is always faster to go to battle in person, and they rushed to Li Wenxuan's relative's house at just the right time.

This relative belonged to his grandma, and Li Wenxuan wanted to call him an old uncle in terms of seniority, but in reality, he was only in his early fifties.This old uncle's surname is Niu, and people here call him Lao Niutou.Originally, due to the death of Li Wenxuan's grandma, the two parties have not moved around much.This time when Li Wenxuan got married, the two families had contacts again.Seeing them coming, the old Niutou rushed out to greet them, "Boy Wenxuan, I asked them to move all the things to the yard. Do you think you are going now?"

"Boy, thank you old uncle first." Li Wenxuan cupped his hands at him, "I thought I'd go now, and there would be a delay on the way. It would be bad if I missed the auspicious time!"

"Okay, then I'll ask them to help you move out together." The old bull head was very enthusiastic.In fact, he was also a little cautious. The current situation of the Li family is getting better and better. At the beginning, because the previous generation was gone, he didn't move around anymore. When he wanted to ask someone for help, he was too embarrassed to go up. Now Li Wenxuan is married. , if there is a place to use him, of course he has to do his best.

Li Wenxuan prepared more than a dozen large boxes for the dowry, so he found enough manpower. In addition to the four hair boys from their own village, there were also four good buddies whom he specially called from Fucheng to save face for him. , because they had horses.

Others usually hired someone to pick them up, but Li Wenxuan was different. He put the cart on his horse and sent it in a carriage. There were four people sitting in the carriage, and four people riding horses. This scene was enough to see in this small mountain village. up.

As soon as they arrived at the entrance of the village, some people went to Tian's house to announce the good news, and the children in the village and some married husbands followed their team to Tian's house.It's rare to see something rare in the village. This scene of Tian Xiaoman being hired is the first time in their village, and it's worth talking about for more than half a year!

When Tian's family got the news, they immediately took out a large set of firecrackers, which were lit by Tian Fulai, Tian Xiaoman's elder brother. As soon as the crackling sound of firecrackers sounded, the atmosphere became lively, and two boys clapped their hands and jumped up and shouted. Said: "Chinese New Year, Chinese New Year!"

"You silly child," the child's mother laughed, "it's your brother Xiaoman who is getting married!" "Oh oh oh, married, married!" It's fun to watch them.

. . . . . .

Tian Xiaoman sat shyly in the room, and Yang Xiaoguo accompanied him in the room.

"Xiaoman, you are well, you are going to get married." Yang Xiaoguo stared at Tian Xiaoman, his mother always said that he was so greedy, no one would want him.Xiaoman is as greedy as he is, and he can find someone to marry him, which is amazing!

"What's so good about being married!" Tian Xiaoman blushed, he didn't want to marry!

Yang Xiaoguo curled her lips, she didn't want to marry, so why are you blushing?

As if seeing Yang Xiaoguo's questioning, Tian Xiaoman continued to complain, "Really! I don't want to marry! I don't like him, I like people who can read. He is not good at all..."

"That's not it!" Yang Xiaoguo retorted, "My mother said, your husband's family is a hunter, he is a butcher, butcher, and he can eat meat every day!" How wonderful, it's like a fairy's life!

"That's true." Tian Xiaoman usually only noticed that Li Wenxuan was not a scholar, but a pig killer, but after Yang Xiaoguo said it, he suddenly found that this is still very good, he has meat to eat every day, hee hee.The two brothers were instantly immersed in the fantasy of eating meat every day, and when they listened carefully, they could hear a little saliva sucking.

"Wow!" A neat exclamation came from outside, interrupting the fantasies of the buddies.It turned out that Li Wenxuan's betrothal gift had been moved to the yard, and I opened the box for everyone to see!

There is such a custom in several nearby villages, which is called sun-xi.In fact, most people open those unimportant boxes, such as boxes for four-color candies, dragon and phoenix candles, and so on, just to make everyone happy.But Li Wenxuan didn't know. As soon as he heard about opening the box, he immediately opened all the boxes with his hands and feet. Now, the surrounding villagers were stunned!

Isn't Liushupo very poor?Earlier, I heard that their brother-in-law was only exchanged for a bucket of millet. How could the brother-in-law of the Tian family be so generous!Look at these four golden pieces, bracelets, rings, necklaces, and earrings!Could it be that the whole house was emptied out?For their small households, they usually only need to prepare one piece to make their faces look very radiant, and it is still silver.

Apart from these, the rest of the fabrics, paint buckets and so on seemed to be the most expensive ones sold in their county.

Lao Tian's family has climbed a door and is close!Everyone present thought so.Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, who knew that such a good relationship would be taken over by a bad brother like Tian Xiaoman!The elders with brothers present were all very embarrassing. Could it be that the rich people like this kind of tone recently?

After everyone reacted, they all smiled and congratulated Tian Amu and the others.

There are also sour ones, "You are enjoying yourself now, your brother has earned so much for you."

There are those who are neither yin nor yang, "If I knew it, I would let my brother and your Xiaoman learn from each other. Maybe I will find such a close friend tomorrow."

There was also someone who secretly inquired about the situation, "Your husband, Xiaoman, still has a few young men by his side, have they married yet?"

Regarding this situation, Tian Amu finally felt elated, and of course he sincerely thanked those who sincerely expressed congratulations, and said to those who were sour, "Yeah, I didn't expect my brother-in-law to be so sincere, how much?" My family’s Xiaoman took out all the money.” To those who were angry with Yin and Yang, “It’s too late, let my family’s Xiaoman come to enjoy the blessings before he gets married, and teach him a few tricks for free.” To those who inquired about the situation, “I’ll ask tomorrow Inquire, yes, I will definitely help your brother pay attention!"

Don't blame Aunt Tian for being so embarrassing, the main reason is that these gossips have been talking a lot about their Xiaoman during this period of time, so it's time to let them get to know her better.

However, there is a saying that is true. He did not expect that the Li family would be so generous. You must know that more than half of the brother's dowry will be kept by the Mu family, and some people will take it all away. I can't take a cent with me.

There is only one brother in their family, Xiaoman, who grew up in the palm of his hand. Of course, he would not let him marry in the past because of the dowry and be treated coldly by his husband's family, but he didn't communicate with their family about this matter. He was so sincere , which shows that Li Wenxuan is satisfied with Xiaoman's family.

Li Wenxuan's betrothal gifts gave the Tian family enough face, and also gained enough favorability with the Tian family.But Li Wenxuan was not very happy, because the person he wanted to favor the most never showed up.

Tian Amu noticed his frequent look into Tian Xiaoman's room.He smiled and said to the crowd, "Let's all go away, these young men are tired after traveling so far, let them have a good rest, everyone come to drink after a while!"

When the villagers heard this, they all dispersed, leaving only the members of the Tian family and the men who followed Li Wenxuan to deliver the betrothal gifts in the small courtyard.Tian Dali took his two sons and invited them into the main room to drink tea, have some snacks, and sit down to rest.Tian Amu went to Tian Xiaoman's room to help him arrange things.

The betrothal gifts were carried into Tian Xiaoman's room by the relatives of the Tian family's father and son long after the wedding ceremony was finished, and now it is full.

As soon as Tian Amu walked into the room, she heard Yang Xiaoguo sigh, "Xiaoman, your husband is so kind to you and gave you so many things! If only I had them too." He put his face in his hands and thought in distress. Now, why didn't anyone come to his house to propose marriage?He also wants to eat meat every day.This silly boy linked the proposal of marriage with eating meat.

"Xiaoguo, don't be envious, you will definitely have these too!" Tian Amu looked at Yang Xiaoguo's chubby face lovingly, and liked it very much in her heart. After finishing Xiaoman's affairs, she had to take care of his boss. thing.

"Mum, why are you here?" Tian Xiaoman looked at him, Eminem, there are so many people outside, are you not entertaining him?

Seems to have seen his doubts, "Your father and brother are here, don't be afraid. Ah Mu will come in and help you clean up, otherwise you won't go to bed at night after you clean up by yourself." Tian Xiaoman put almost all of his skill points If you order it to eat, it is completely useless.

"Hey," Tian Xiaoman stuck out his tongue and smiled embarrassedly.

"Hey! Although I want to help you, you have to learn from the side, and you will be on your own in the future. You can't follow your mother to your husband's house to help you pack things." Listen to what Eminem said Tian Xiaoman had no choice but to answer with a frowning face, and also raised his hands.

Yang Xiaoguo saw it, and shrank back with guilt, thinking that he should remarry later, and let his mother clean up for him for two years.

Tian Amu tidied things up in a hurry. If Tian Xiaoman was removed, it might be a little faster.

After packing up his things, it was getting late, so he hurried to the kitchen and started to cook. This is the only thing wrong with their Laotian family. There are too few relatives, so every time there is something wrong at home, they have to ask the neighbors for help.

By the time he got to the kitchen, it was already in full swing. The brothers who had been friends with him were washing rice, washing vegetables, and everyone was talking and laughing. "Everyone has worked hard, let us brothers have a good meal when we are done!"

"Hey, look at him, he's still being polite to us! Even if you don't say anything, we'll stay here and enjoy your Xiaoman's glory!" Lin Miao laughed loudly. She got angry with him and said that the boss of their family wanted to marry Xiao Guo of his family as her husband.This made him really heave a sigh of relief, thinking, someone finally took their unlucky child, Tian's family lived nearby, and his father-in-law knew him well, so he was not afraid of his family's Xiaoguo being wronged.
