The girl blushed and tried to grab the basket, but how could that be as strong as a boy of eighteen or nineteen? After several attempts without success, she blushed and ran back home first, leaving a silly Da Liang following behind her. , Xiao Wu and others laughed like a boo.
"When did you agree?" Yang Dongxu asked with a smile.
"Just last month. It's said that the two families are relatives or something, and the third uncle is the matchmaker." Xiao Tao said as if he was taking credit. His brother Xiao Wu just came back from work some time ago, so naturally he didn't know as much as he at home.
"There have been a lot of kisses in the village this year, right?"
"There are several couples. Yinshan from the third uncle's family, Hongguang, the general's sister, and Gazi from the West House have all said they are kissing each other." Xiao Liang said immediately.
"Hongguang said they were kissed?" Yang Dongxu couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
Hongguang and Yinshan are the same people who play with their uncle, but the age difference between them and their uncle Shengli is about seven or eight years. Uncle Shengli is 35 this year, but they are not yet thirty.
However, even though he is not thirty, he is still an adult in his mid-twenties. At such an old age, he has not yet gotten married in the countryside, so he is basically classified as an old bachelor.
However, Yinshan is not surprised to say that he is kissing Yang Dongxu. After all, the family background of the third grandfather's family is not worried about food and clothing. In the past two years, Yinshan has been just like his brother-in-law Shengli. Although it has been a little bumpy, it is still stable, so He was not surprised by the marriage.
But Hongguang is different. His family background can only be considered average, and he also has a strange father, Li Baoliang. To say that his father is weird is just because of his personality.
For example, his father was good at pretending to be a coward when playing cards. When he lost money, he usually owed money, but if he owed money, he would not pay it back. When he won money, he asked for it shamelessly. Everyone in the same village was too embarrassed to talk about it, so he gradually stopped playing with him. In addition, he was a rare person with the surname Li in Yangjia Village, so he was not very friendly during the holidays. There is a feeling of isolation when I go around.
Another weird thing is a weird father-in-law. After his daughter became a monk, he didn't let his daughter take away the money, but kept it himself. If you stayed to find a wife for your son, that would be fine, but if he stayed, it would be a waste for himself.
Buy those jade beads that will become more and more red when worn, buy birds, and buy good tea. The Yang family, recognized as the richest in the village, from grandpa Yang Lanzhen to Yang's father and Shengli, are not so showy, but he shows off every day and feels extra good. So who would be the matchmaker for such a family, and who would be willing to marry?
"It's not about kissing, it's just that I brought one back from outside. You came back late. Yesterday, his new wife was quarreling with him. She said she wanted to go home to stop being with him and to divorce him." Xiao Wu was a little excited. said.
"You brought it from outside, where did it come from?" Yang Dongxu nodded. It is indeed impossible to propose marriage after a bad reputation. However, it has become popular to go out to work in the past two years, so it is possible to bring one back from outside.
"Who knows, anyway, he is not from our area, but from our area, who will marry him?" Although they are all from the same village, even in rural areas, there will be three, six, nine and so on. . Naturally, those who are doing well will look down on those who are not doing well, especially those who do not have the same surname as themselves but are not doing so well. Of course, they will not look down on those who are doing well.
"Let me tell you a secret." Hongguang Xiaowu seemed to have remembered something, and raised his eyebrows mysteriously at Yang Dongxu with an ambiguous look on his face.
"What secret?" Yang Dongxu was stunned for a moment. Generally, when a boy of eighteen or nineteen years old in rural areas shows such a slightly vulgar expression, he is probably seeing someone's unruly woman and a man digging into the fields or making firewood. There is a pile of grain. The three holy places for having an affair in the countryside are the crop field, the ditch, and the firewood stack.
"Some time ago, Pengzi and Xiaomei kissed secretly, and a few of us saw it. At that time, Da Liang howled so loudly that the two of them almost fainted." Xiao Wu said with a smile,
Xiaoliang and Xiaotao next to them also looked excited. This kind of teasing thing is undoubtedly the favorite of young people like them, especially if it involves the exposure of love and love, it is even more exciting. Everyone smiles obscenely with a sense of elation.
"What happened next?"
"Of course I couldn't hide it anymore. The two families have been discussing the marriage these days, but your eldest father's family seems a little unhappy." Xiao Wu shrugged.
The eldest father Yang Dongxu's family he was talking about was not the eldest father's family with his own surname, but the family surnamed Sun. Although the majority of people in Yangjia Village have the surname Yang, there are also other surnames, such as the Li Baoliang family, but this is the only family surnamed Li. Then there are those surnamed Xu, those surnamed Sun, and those surnamed Zheng. There are slightly more people surnamed Xu, and there are not many people with the other two surnames.
Since they don't have the same surname, they don't have many relatives. Although people with the surname Yang also have different house numbers, they basically belong to the same ancestor. For example, his grandpa Laozi and grandpa Xiaowu are the same old man.
By the time Father Yang's generation came to count, he was still a bit close to other surnames, but unless it was for weddings or funerals, he would not move around during the holidays.
Xiaowu said that Pengzi's father was Yang Dongxu's father. That was because Yang Dongxu's family was related to his family. His younger sister, Dandan, recognized Pengzi's father, Sun Zhiping, as his godfather. Pengzi's father was a few years older than Yang's father. So Yang Dongxu followed and called "big daddy".
Although there are only a few families with the surname Sun in Yangjia Village, these families are doing well, although they are definitely not as good as the Yang family. But in the past few years, I have made some money working part-time, especially my younger sister's godfather Sun Zhiping, who is more courageous. He goes to the coastal areas alone to cut rice for others when the farming is busy, and does hard labor for others during the slack farming.
The younger sister’s godmother also went to work with her. The few acres of land at home depended on the youngest son, the two married daughters, and the help of a relatively healthy old woman. They have made a lot of money in the past few years. Some money can be regarded as some face in the village.
Therefore, if his son wants to marry, he won't have to pick and choose from all over the place, but at least he can choose the one he likes very much. It's strange that a family like the Li family, headed by a weird father, would naturally look down upon him and be willing to do so.
"I guess it can be done, right?" Yang Dongxu said.
Because in later generations Pengzi did marry Xiaomei, and the development result was completely opposite to the parents' expectations. From now on, Pengzi, who seems to be pretty good now, turns out to be a bit dishonest and a prodigal, which makes the eldest father's family uneasy. On the contrary, Xiaomei, who was married to her, was very independent and worked hard to stabilize the family. She also gave birth to a grandson and a granddaughter to her eldest father.
"Who knows." Xiao Wu curled his lips, obviously not optimistic.
Yang Dongxu tightened the clothes on his chest and didn't say anything. At this time, it was getting dark and the wind started to blow, and the sky was gloomy. So a few people stopped wandering on the river dam and turned around and started walking home.
"I wonder if the snow can get heavy? If it does, we can take our dogs to chase rabbits and pheasants along the river dam tomorrow." Xiao Wu muttered as he looked up at the sky.
When I got home, my brother-in-law Liu Leehom was sitting in the main room a little embarrassed, but I don't know how his sister persuaded him. Yang's parents looked better, and they were not as arrogant as before. Although he kept his face, it was impossible to make them happy. The daughter I finally raised was cheated away by someone else, and it's strange that the boy could be happy just sitting in the room.
"My parents are still angry for a while. Don't forget to go through it for two days." Yang Dongxu said when he saw the embarrassment on his brother-in-law's face.
"I know, but I didn't take it seriously. Well... how can I give this money to... my uncle and aunt?" Liu Leehom stood up with an embarrassed smile, then looked outside the door and took out his inner pocket. I took out a stack of money. The thickness was at least four or five thousand, and the money was all one hundred.
Yang Dongxu can directly call him brother-in-law, but he obviously can't call him parents without the consent of Yang's father and Yang's mother.
"Why did you come back with so much money?" Yang Dongxu's expression changed. He really didn't know that his brother-in-law had so much money in his pocket.
"The things you buy at home are things you buy, and you still need to have a betrothal gift. I know it's not much money, but this is the most money I have ever spent."
"Put it away quickly. You have so much money?" Yang Dongxu pushed him to put it away quickly.
When Liu Leehom came back, he spent money to buy some things, and Yang Dongxu didn't stop him, even though there was no shortage of these things at home. But if the son-in-law doesn't bring some gifts when he comes to visit for the first time, not only Yang's parents and Yang's mother will definitely be gossiped about, Liu Leehom's face will also not look good. But he didn't expect that Liu Leehom was still carrying a betrothal gift.
"It's not your sister's." Liu Leehom said urgently, his face turning red because he was too anxious.
"I know, I know, my sister didn't give it to you, I was afraid you would do bad things." He knew his brother-in-law's character well, and naturally knew that Liu Leehom would not use his sister's money as a betrothal gift.
He only asked that because he knew that Liu Leehom's salary was not much. A skilled worker in a factory with more than 5,000 yuan could not earn so much money these days. After all, pork now only costs about two yuan per pound, and a household worth ten thousand yuan is still as rich as a wealthy person in the countryside.
"More than half of it was saved by working part-time over the years, and some of it was made by me coming to propose marriage, just in time for my family to sell pigs and grains at the end of the year." Thinking of the fact that I have all the money from selling pigs and grains at home. Here, Liu Leehom looked a little unnatural.
The children of the poor have long been in charge of the family. Liu Leehom, who is already in his twenties, only works alone and is not afraid of hardship and fatigue, just because he does not want to burden his parents. However, he did not expect that in the end he would need his parents to collect the gift money.
"What are you two doing? It's time to eat." Yang's mother came to the main room from the kitchen at this time and was stunned when she saw a large stack of money in Liu Leehom's hand.
"Mom is like this." Yang Dongxu quickly explained the matter.
"Put it away, put it away quickly. If you don't put it away, don't enter my door in the future." When Yang Dongxu said this, Yang's father also came back from outside and said directly after hearing what his son said.
"But uncle, I am here to propose marriage. If there is no gift, others will gossip about me."
"In Yangjiacun, whoever dares to gossip about my family should put it away immediately." Yang's mother said very domineeringly: "As long as you have this intention, let Xuzi drive you to the city tomorrow and give the money back to your parents. , I, the Yang family, are marrying my daughter, not selling my daughter, so how can I ask for this money from you."
"Mom, so you agree to this marriage?" Yang Dongxu's face was filled with joy. He didn't expect that his mother would agree to it like this.
"I want you to talk more." Yang's mother glared at her son angrily.
Liu Leehom, who had come back to his senses, stood beside him and was silly and happy.
