The husband's son-in-law

When Su Shiyi went to the Central Plains to deliver goods this time, he encountered pirates on the waterway, but there were explosives on board, which were more powerful than the other party's, so he frightened the other party not to invade, so he didn't delay much when he went.

The few things sold quickly, and they were all sold to regular customers. They had been ordered early, and the goods were sold out within a few days. Su Shiyi followed the caravan back to Sujia Village.

Brother Yu got married, so he went back to announce the good news.Cousin also knows.

There is also the name money of the second uncle's family, which is also to be given.It used to be ten taels of silver a year, but this year my cousin added it to 20 taels of silver.

Su Shiyi rented a car and took a load of goods and went around the village in a big circle. He went to Sujia Village first and waited for the things left behind. He carried a bamboo basket and climbed over the mountain to Xiping Village, which was close and convenient.

After entering the village, I received a warm greeting from the whole village.

Su Shiyi replied one by one.

"How can I wear silk clothes like the master when I'm just running errands?"

"Isn't it? I save some hard-earned money to send home throughout the year."

Su Shiyi was dressed in linen bunt clothes, with cloth shoes on his feet and stepped on a few feet of mud. He was wrapped in a turban and looked disheartened.

Not like.

It's like a coolie porter.

Su Shilei, who came back from Beijing first to pick up people, was incomparable, the ones he wore were decent, and those who made troubles couldn't help but say: "Shuanzi, I think your uncle's son of a bitch is more promising than you "The last time I came back to pick up Cao'er's parents and family, I was dressed in style, it's better in Beijing."

Su Shiyi then stopped to chat with the villagers. He knew that Jiaying would hold a wedding at the end of this year, but he didn't know that Shi Lei would come back to pick them up. in the village.

To the villagers who praised Shi Lei for being a gentleman——

"It's just that the daughter-in-law in his family is not good enough."

"Isn't that right? I originally said that the family has some money and a lot of land, and they are well-off with green brick and tile houses, but now everyone in Su is not bad. I said at the time that Goudan is in charge of the capital, and he is appointed to look down on the girls in the village. Baby, but your uncle said: Marriage is decided by parents. He works hard outside alone, and I work hard on my son. What happened to betrothed to him? How can he not listen to me as a mother? This is not filial .”

Shi Lei's family has appointed a wife?Su Shiyi was stunned for a moment, then he was polite and hurried back to his home.

The house at home was built a few years ago, and it is also open and spacious with blue bricks and big tiles.

Maybe he received the news. Before he got home, the father who went to the field and several brothers and younger brothers all came back from the field. They were all covered in mud. They smiled when they saw him. Come out to welcome.

Su Shiyi let the goods be unloaded first, and invited the coachman to sit down and drink water for a meal.The women of the Su family began to collect food and hot water, but before they could eat or drink, Su Da and Su Er's family also rushed to the scene when they heard the sound.

So it was another greeting, and there was everything to say.

"Let the doll eat first, eat first and talk later."

"Hey, the goods in this truck are all yours?"

Su Shiyi took a sip of water and hurriedly said: "My cousin entrusted me to bring half of them to the East and West villages, and some I paid my wages to buy back for my family. Naturally, there are uncles and uncles."

"Filial piety doll."

"Shuanzi is good, I'm thinking about my family."

All praised.When the hot water and food came, the coachman took the money and drove away after using it.Now Su San's courtyard is full of the Su family.Su Shiyi first talked about the situation in Zhaozhou. His name in the village at home was to work for his cousin. His cousin opened a few small shops and did some business. If it was hard for people to come out, he would run errands and sell goods for a salary. .

Every time Su Shiyi came back, he was covered in dust and filth. Not to mention the villagers, the Su family believed that if he really made a lot of money, he should come back in a dignified manner.

Speaking of this, I can't help but take out Su Shilei for comparison.The aunt said happily: "Shuanzi, you earn less money for your hard work on the way to Zhaozhou. It's better to stay in Beijing. I knew you should stay in Beijing like us sons of a bitch."

"At that time, there were not so many people in Beijing, so we decided by lottery. God sees that I am older, so I will endure hardships. It's okay. Shi Lei is my younger brother, so it's better if he is more decent." Su Shiyi said.

The uncle curled her lips when she heard this, and wanted to say that this was also decided by lottery, and it wasn't the chance you gave her son of a bitch, why, let her accept it?

Before the words were spoken, Shuanzi said: "Jiayu's October [-]th marriage is very lively, and my cousin Xinshan prepared a dowry for Jiayu, even if he is related, he can't prepare it for all of his cousins. Jiayu's serious parents are still there, and I just came back this time to congratulate my uncle and auntie, I don't know what dowry the two elders gave Jiayu, so I just took it along the way."

The uncle is not in the mood to run on Shuanzi now, she is Xiaohe's grandmother——

At this moment, Jiayu's mother said nana, "It's right, it's right." As soon as she finished speaking, she was stared at by her mother-in-law, and immediately rubbed her hands, not knowing what to say.

The man in her family is also useless, he only knows how to contribute, the child is married and their family really does not add a dowry, which makes people laugh, and now the family is in a good situation, and it is not as poor as it used to be.

But no one listened to her.

The uncle didn't open his mouth all the time, but at this moment he heard the words and said solemnly: "Our brother got married, and Xiaohe didn't send home the money he earned in the past two years. He has it in his hand, and we don't mean to the child, add some."

"...I haven't earned much in these years. My cousin came back earlier and paid me and Jiayu's wages to my family. My family and my uncle's house were built with this money." Su Shiyi said lightly.

He was no longer the same as before, seeing this uncle, the elder shrank his head in fear and did not dare to argue.

Li, everyone is watching.

Jiayu paid half of the money for the front and rear houses of the uncle's house.

The atmosphere was a bit cold for a while, Su San first scolded his son for talking to his uncle, and Su Shiyi followed suit, "It's not that I deliberately said bad things to my uncle and auntie, it's just that Jiayu and I are in Zhaozhou, and the road is far away. I have been back for a few years. Jiayu is a brother, and it must be inconvenient to travel and travel. He looks at the braised cooking shop and earns hard money. The weather in Zhaozhou is hot. Isn’t it tiring to go to the stove all the year round? It’s amazing, I also want to go home..."

If you want to speak hard, then Su Shiyi is a junior, but if you try to be miserable and say something soft, then it's really hard to say Su Shiyi, the first room of Su Da heard it, and now it's hard for the auntie to say anything else.

"Xiaohe is a bit bitter."

"It's hard work, baby. If you get married, you should go and see it no matter how far away you are."

"That's right, it's not easy for Xiaohe."

Everyone sighed.Jia Yuniang was also red-eyed, her brother was worthless but she was born too, any girl who got married at home had to pay a dowry, when she came to Xiaohe, her mother-in-law didn't say a word, it means Xiaohe was outside After earning money, I don't believe that Xiaohe works with his cousin, and his cousin is an official's wife, so he doesn't even give Xiaohe a dowry?Doesn't this make people laugh out loud? It's all about losing the reputation of the official wife...

Their Su family is far away, and they can't make jokes on them.

Since you can't hear me, why do you want to give me dowry money?It's not a waste of money, give money to a little brother who is married to a foreigner.

Saving a penny is a penny.

Now when Su Shiyi said that the big house is not good and he pretended to be dead, the uncle said to add some, so let's do it.According to the dowry of the married daughter of the family.The aunt was still not convinced, she muttered: "...I haven't seen a little brother who can compare with the girl."

But murmurs belong to murmurs, no one listens to her.

This is the case in the village. Ordinary men don't take things seriously, but if they really say it, then it's settled.

Su Shiyi sold poorly for Jiayu, and got the two taels of silver from his uncle, so he said: "I will give it to Jiayu later, he must be happy to know that his family still remembers him."

"How is Xiaohe's husband's family?" Jia Yuniang asked.

Su Shiyi then said nicely: "He's a nice guy. He's shorter than me, but he's handsome. He's the third of three brothers in the family—"

When Jia Yuniang heard that the three brothers were brothers, she was afraid that Xiaohe would suffer from his sister-in-law. Xiaohe is an out-of-towner, his mother's family is not around, and he used to be a quiet and honest person at home, so what should he do?

"Earlier we separated our families. My parents live with elder brother Hou Tong. Hou Tong is the name of Jiayu's husband. The three brothers all have two yards. Their families are in Zhaozhou City. They don't farm land. They are craftsmen. Bottles and jars."

The aunt was curious when she heard this, "Can you make money?"

"I don't know about this family's handicraft business, but it's true that Hou Tong is good to Jiayu and is willing to spend money. When we got engaged, the bride price he gave was only 300 taels of silver—"

"what!!!"

"What?!!!"

"How many?!"

All those present listening were stunned and panicked, it was Su Shiyi's father who was drinking tea and sprayed his son all over the face at this moment.Su Shiyi: ...

I'm afraid of handcuffs, so I let Su Shiyi wipe it and talk about it, don't be fooled.

"What's the big guy Meng doing? Hou Tong is the third child, and the two elder brothers love the younger brother. Each family gave 50 taels. After the separation, Hou Tong gave Jiayu all the money and the silver he had saved."

Su Shiyi didn't wait to ask, imitating the way adults cheat people, but he only smiled honestly and said: "With this money, my cousin is not merciless in buying Jiayu's dowry, and always wants to show the Hou family face. Otherwise, it would be ridiculous to do so shabby with so much money, so I prepared six dowries, including gold, silver, jade, mattresses and clothes, don’t worry, uncles and aunts.”

At this time, the uncle felt sorry for her family's two taels of silver.

This is 300 taels for dowry?This is not something that loses money too much.

"No, how could my cousin come here like this? Hou Tong emptied his family's property, so he always wanted to leave something for him to live in. As for how much——I looked at the dowry business, there was not much left, and my cousin would definitely return it. It’s been a little bit more subsidized, so we can’t let Jiayu have no money to buy New Year’s gifts and make a fuss for the new daughter-in-law’s first year of Chinese New Year.”

Jia Yuniang nodded when she heard it, and said in a low voice, "Cousin Li thinks about everything."

The aunt wanted to scold someone, but she didn't know how to scold. Thinking about the 300 taels of silver made her chest tight with anger, but so what, could she go to Zhaozhou to ask for money?The marriage is done, and now Xiaohe belongs to the family, so he can't ask for money.

Ugh.

If I knew it earlier, I would have gone if I had known it earlier.

There is no medicine for regret in this world, Su Da’s family suddenly had their own thoughts, anyway, it would be dull and silent, not as energetic as before, when it came to Su Er’s family, the second uncle and the second aunt went to Beijing, and stayed The next ones are all children, following Su Shiyi's generation.

Su Shiyi settled the money given by his cousin in front of everyone.

"Originally, it was ten taels of silver a year, but now there are businesses in three places. The big head of Zhaozhou is 15 taels, and you also take the silver from Jingli and Ningping prefectures. If you calculate it this way, it will be 25 taels of silver a year. This is Count the five years of Zhaozhou silver."

Willows in Beijing pays seven taels a year, and Xing Geer in Ningping Prefecture pays three taels a year.Li Zhouzhou made it clear in the letter that he paid 15 taels, and the sum of the three places was 25 taels of silver.

Now the life of the Su family is better, the first room has Su Shilei, before Jiayu gave back the money, the third room has Su Shiyi, the second room got money in the early days, and Su Jiaying took the money, slightly out of the three brothers.

But relying on business registration, the children below cannot study, which is a big loss.I used to be poor, maybe no one thought of this, but now that life is getting better, I am afraid that I will be dissatisfied. Besides, Jiaying is going to get married, and the second wife is not short of money. Li Zhouzhou is afraid that the second wife will not comfort her. Two, so give more.

Ye Xing’s second house was short of money and asked Jiaying to ask for it——Jiaying’s husband’s family’s conditions were not good, and she still relied on Jiaying to earn money for her education.

75 Putting the taels of silver on the table, the second room and the family were overjoyed, smiling, and said a lot of good things, what kind of hard work Shuan Zi has, thank you so much.

Their family is still good, although Cao'er doesn't get money back after getting married, but their family can earn 25 taels of silver for a year without doing anything. The third uncle's family counted on Shuanzi.

Can these two people give 25 taels of silver to the family a year?

The hard money earned from hard work is still good for their family, and this is called enjoying the happiness.

Afterwards, some gifts were distributed. Su Shiyi brought dried palm sugar seaweed, dried squid, kelp, seaweed, and some streamer silk. The two families each got one, and they broke up. Everyone was happy, but the uncle and aunt looked at it. Some are not happy.Su Shiyi knew why, originally wanted to ask about Shi Lei's marriage, but now it's hard to ask.

Go back and ask your family members the same.

"What else can I do? It's a big family in the next village. There are many brothers in the family. There are many fields in the family. Your aunt has a god who said that the dog has a noble person to help. When I heard the nobleman, it turned out to be the daughter of the old Li's family. Doggy..."

After that, the uncle and auntie directly made a marriage arrangement to Su Shilei in Beijing.

Only when Su Shilei came to pick him up this time did he know.

"Not angry?"

"How can I be so angry, I quarreled with the door closed, the dog said that I want to withdraw from the marriage, but your uncle has already given the gift money, five taels of silver, do you think the Li family can agree? They have already bought the money as a dowry , that girl took the hemp rope directly to find Goudan, and said that if you dare to divorce, I will hang myself at the door of your house. Anyway, the two of us have made an appointment, and I am from your family. It's your ghost."

Su Shiyi: "...awesome."

"Still amazing?!"

"Auntie should be tortured so hard." Su Shiyi didn't think there was anything wrong with the hot girl from the Li family, so she naturally came to him.

Su Shi Yiniang said: "I told you, you are not allowed to marry such a hot and fierce guy, the little brother who came back with you last time—"

"Mother, don't talk about it. Wang Jian is stronger and more capable than me. I'm in charge. Don't offend anyone."

"He's not here now, let me tell you what's wrong? I don't want to talk about a brother who is in business. I don't seem to be able to live a stable life and serve men. You run hard every day. Go home and eat hot soup and hot food." If you don’t talk about it, why marry him?”

"Shuanzi, listen to your mother, it's better to marry a girl. The girl from the Li family is hotter, but she can work quickly, sew clothes and cook well, and she can have children with a big buttocks. How wonderful it will be to have a bunch of children. Now our family is not incapable of uncovering the pot before, and if we raise a few more, we can always produce good seedlings."

"The couple live with enthusiasm. You see, the little brother looks very good, but can you see if he can live? He is not the master of life."

Su Shiyi got a headache when he heard it, and finally said: "...Mom, I'm not good enough for Wang Jian, don't talk about it, we can't do it."

"Okay, it's good that you know, my son is eating, I will show you your marriage, or do you find someone in Zhaozhou? If I let you know, the marriage has to be done in a hurry, just like a dog's egg, take it with you." People go back to Zhaozhou..."

"No, I'll do it myself." Su Shiyi was absent-minded, "There is a cousin in Zhaozhou to help."

When Su Shi Yiniang heard that Cousin Li was here, she stopped talking, and only hoped that Cousin Li could find Shuan Zi a good family, just like Xiaohe's husband's family.

she looking for?What good she can find is a girl from a village a few miles away.

As soon as his mother collected the bowls and left, the room became quiet. Su Shiyi got on the kang and lay down, but couldn't fall asleep. He thought about the first time he had a deal with Wang Jian before. At that time, Wang Jian was not called Wang Jian, but the fourth brother. Well, he actually...

Later, Wang Jian became more and more powerful and suppressed him. Su Shiyi was actually a little inferior, and the slightest thought was put away. As for now, only the friendship of partners is left.

He admires Wang Jian, Wang Jian is like his brother, but not like him.

Anyway, no love.

After resting at home for two days, he knew that Shi Lei and the girl from the Li family got married in a hurry - the girl from the Li family forced her to die, there was no other way, after the marriage, Shi Lei took the girl from the Li family back to Beijing.

Shi Lei took people away, showing that he was still somewhat responsible.

If it's embarrassing to go to the village, the girl from the Li family will definitely be wronged if the man is not around at home.The aunt is not easy to get along with.

Went to Dongxiping Village, brought a letter, and gifts from several families. Su Shiyi rested for one night before returning to Tangzhou. After returning by water, he encountered water bandits at night. He was in a cold sweat. After getting off the boat, Su Shiyi finally got down.

Looking back at that time, at that time, he actually thought that it would be better for him to deal with it calmly if Wang Jian was here, including after the aftermath, helping him settle the bills and dealing with several bosses, it was Wang Jian who came.

Su Shiyi was ashamed of himself, and Liu Tao took care of him and greeted him with care.

"At that time, between life and death, I thought that if I survived, I would marry a wife and have children." Su Shiyi said to his cousin.

Li Zhouzhou finished listening and said: "You know Liu Tao, she is Liu Fulang's sister, I regard her as my own sister, think clearly, if you marry Liu Tao, you will be the first to protect Liu Tao in the future. I won't tell others, you are not allowed to let Liu Tao down by messing around outside, otherwise you are my cousin, and I will not be soft."

"I know my cousin." Su Shiyi thought clearly, "I actually have a crush on Tao Zi..."

"Even I didn't mean to make a hasty decision. I just wanted to talk to her about it. I was afraid that she would still feel uncomfortable about her previous experience, so I thought about taking it easy..."

Li Zhouzhou knew that Su Shiyi didn't just make up his mind randomly, so he asked Xiaotao later, Xiaotao nodded shyly, "I was worried when he didn't come back, and I was also worried every time I went to buy goods. I had him in my heart, and he had I'll be fine."

In the beginning, Liu Tao was notorious and came to Tangzhou, and it was Su Shiyi who escorted her all the way to Zhaozhou.

Then get engaged.

Li Zhouzhou asked again and again, and found a matchmaker to calculate the date. Whatever happens, I have to answer to Xiaoshu in Jingli first. It is almost the end of the year, so Fengyun will deliver the letter. There is no rush, and we will get married in spring or May or June next year. , which is considered fast.

Su Shiyi is beaming now, saying that he wants to buy a house.

When Li Zhouzhou heard this, he originally wanted to say that there is such a big place in the mansion that he can't live there?After thinking about it, if the young couple got married, it would be a small family, and if Su Shiyi bought a property, it would be established, and in the future, he would be on his own, so he would let it go.

It's just that there is some reluctance.

First, Brother Yu, then Xiaotao and Su Shiyi, alas.

"It's normal for the children to live separately when they grow up. It's good for enhancing the relationship between husband and wife, and it also trains them to be the masters of the house. Just keep the yard in our house for them." Gu Zhao comforted Zhou Zhou.

Yes, it's been so many years in a blink of an eye.

Li Zhouzhou wrote a letter to Xiaoshu, thinking that it was time for Jiaying to get married, "This year is a series of happy events..."

That's right, a few days after the news of Su Shiyi and Liu Tao's engagement spread, someone from the Chen family invited Li Zhouzhou and Gu Zhao to come over, saying that they were Linniang's grandfather——Gu Zhaojiong was very energetic.

Lin Niang also made a marriage arrangement.

When I held a blind date banquet for Brother Yu before, during the kite competition by the lake, Lin Niang was not forgiving. Said that this man's family knew that his background was low and it was not easy to climb high, so he didn't dare to come to ask.

Afterwards, this man went to the poorhouse every day, Linniang sometimes went and sometimes not, but this man didn't care if Linniang was there, anyway, the work of the poorhouse was covered, what about chopping firewood and repairing the roof? Class hard work.

After working for more than a month, Chen Erniang and Li Chun didn't know what this person was doing. They really thought he was a kind person who loved to work. There were girls in the yard, but they were all little dolls, each one year old. Big, one is six or seven years old.

When Chen Erniang went back, Nahan said it out. Linniang became curious and stopped him one day.

Now that they talked about it, both of them blushed.

Lin Niang asked, "How old are you?"

"Seventeen."

Linniang will be twenty after the Chinese New Year.

This is too small.Lin Niang murmured in her heart, but looking at the 17-year-old Xiao Langjun, with white skin and big eyes, he is not very good-looking, but just looking at it makes him bully...

Then naturally it was done.

If it doesn't work, he won't ask Li Zhouzhou and Gu Zhao to talk to him.When Gu Zhao heard that the Chen family 'suspiciously' Linniang's fiancé was young, he immediately said: "What's wrong with being young, the young man is holding a gold brick, don't I look like a golden brick?!"

Master Gu is also three years younger than his wife.

The Chen family: ...

That's true.

It's just that Xiao Gu murmured in his heart: It shouldn't be said that the boy is a mistress, he is a mistress, but there is no such thing as a mistress...
