"You stole someone else's blind date, right? You're so shameless." Xu Fang snorted.
"Third brother!" Xu Aiguo shouted, "If you can't speak, don't talk. Go to the kitchen and help your mother cook! What time is it! Do you want to have dinner?"
Xu Fang curled her lips, but she didn't dare to contradict her father and went to the kitchen to complain to her mother.
Xu Rong took two bags of food, one bag of fruits and one bag of cakes and snacks brought by Sheng Yujin, and carried them into the kitchen happily: "Mom! Mom, look, the fourth brother-in-law even bought things for our family! He is better than the eldest brother-in-law. !”
"..."
When Xu Aiguo heard his youngest son's yelp, he awkwardly touched his coat pockets, but they were all empty.
Seeing this, Sheng Yujin took out a pack of cigarettes from her butt pocket, handed one to her future father-in-law, and diligently took out a matchbox to light a fire for Xu's father.
Xu Aiguo took two deep puffs of cigarette and glanced at the young couple through the lingering mist: "Now that you have recognized each other, I have nothing to say. In the days to come, whether good or bad, we must go together. . Just don’t regret it halfway. As for home..."
Xu Aiguo paused, got up, went back to the house, took out a palm-sized brown wooden box, and handed it to Xu Yin:
"This is something your grandma left behind during her lifetime. Your second brother was short of money for his wedding, so I originally planned to sell it. I didn't have much, so I could barely make ends meet by selling it for twenty or thirty. Later, you borrowed a hundred yuan for the family. , I just kept this thing untouched. It was left by your grandma after all. Now... I'll give it to you. Your mother will probably not arrange your marriage for you. This will be regarded as your dowry. That's it. Just put this one away and don’t make any noise about it.”
At this moment, Sheng Yujin finally understood why her partner only had warmth in her eyes when she mentioned her father. In her eyes, other people were almost like grasshoppers in autumn.
Because in this family, it seems that only her future husband truly treats her well.
On impulse, he held Xu Yin's hand and solemnly assured Xu Aiguo:
"Dad, don't worry, Yinyin will be my responsibility from now on. As long as I have something to eat, I will never starve her."
Xu Aiguo was stunned: "..."
Dad, what dad! Not married yet! Just take advantage of my daughter.
Xu Yin turned away and couldn't bear to look at the stupid look of her partner.
That night, Sheng Yujin and Xu Rong slept in the same room, and Xu Yin still slept on her upper bunk.
She took out the small wooden box that Xu's father gave her, opened it and took a look. It was a jade gourd the size of a little finger. The quality of the jade was average, and there were some minor flaws, but the carving was good, but in this era, this Gadgets are nowhere near as valuable as real money.
She is stored in the system warehouse together with the wooden box.
Fortunately, it was collected in time. Xu Fang stood up on tiptoes and scratched the head of her bed to look at her: "What are you doing rustling? Did dad give you money?"
"No." Xu Yin closed her eyes and prepared to sleep.
"There is no best! Since your marriage is your own decision, you should not ask your family for money for the dowry."
"I know, you don't need to repeat it."
"..." Xu Fang sat back on her bed angrily and muttered a few words.
I feel really sad.
While having dinner, she saw that the fourth child's partner's family was in very good condition, with clothes on his body, shoes on his feet, and a watch on his wrist...
The family situation is much better than that of her crush.
The key person is still the driver of the main factory, but the person she likes is just an apprentice who has not yet become a full-time employee.
It would be nice if the two people's family circumstances were different.
She really, really likes Yue Mingsheng, who is slim, elegant, and has dimples at the corners of his mouth when he smiles. It would be great if his family's conditions were better, so she didn't have to wait for him to become a regular employee, and her mother would definitely agree... …
"Yue Mingsheng..."
Xu Fang unconsciously called out the name of her sweetheart.
If Xu Yin were awake, she would definitely be shocked, Yue Mingsheng? Isn’t that the male protagonist of the original text?
However she fell asleep quickly and had a good night's sleep.
The next morning, she went to the kitchen and made a meal of hand-made noodles with tomatoes and eggs as toppings. In the eyes of Xu's mother who accused her of being wasteful, she calmly finished breakfast with her father and quietly stuffed five yuan into her father's jacket pocket. With the money and a few coupons for tobacco, alcohol and candy, she and Sheng Yujin left together.
Today it's her turn to meet her parents.
It is impossible to say that I am not nervous at all.
"Your grandparents will like me, right?"
"That goes without saying! It's hard to find a granddaughter-in-law as smart, beautiful and capable as my partner. It's too late for them to like her. Maybe we will get married tomorrow."
"loquacious!"
Xu Yin was amused by her boyfriend's sweet words.
Unexpectedly, the second elder of the Sheng family really had this idea.
Especially when they saw Xu Yin quickly installing a pedal-pressed water well on her home's water well, which could easily pump clear water out of the well with just a few pedal strokes, and using simple ingredients to prepare a table of sumptuous dishes, this thought came to her mind. It's even more intense.
It's hard to find such a capable girl even with a lantern. I'm not sure when I can stay here?
Grandma Sheng held Xu Yin's hand, looked at her with a smile and asked: "Xiao Xu, Xiao Jin, this child, has been living with us since his parents were not around. Maybe we doted on him too much, and his temper became so stubborn. Very, please be more patient. If he does something that makes you unhappy in the future, and you can't quarrel with him, just come to me and his father. We will make the decision for you and we will never let you suffer any injustice!"
Xu Yin smiled and responded: "Okay."
Sheng Yujin looked into her warm eyes with a smile.
Grandma Sheng's eyebrows narrowed happily: "Okay, okay, have you discussed it? When will I go to your house to hire someone? How much is the gift? You don't have to worry about Xiaojin's parents. They have special jobs and won't be able to make it in a while. Don’t worry, his grandfather and I have already prepared the bride price.”
"..."
Xu Yin couldn't laugh or cry: "Grandma, is it too early to get married?"
She's not old enough to get a certificate yet.
"Grandma is very sorry."
After coming out of Sheng's house, Sheng Yujin smoothed her messy hair and asked gently: "You really don't think about getting married early? I think there are many newlyweds in the factory who have not obtained the certificate."
Xu Yin thought for a while and said: "It's not just about getting the certificate. We don't work together. The breeding farm is half a city away from the transportation department of the main factory. How to live after marriage is a problem. You can't just live apart after getting married, right?"
"Of course not."
Regarding this issue, Sheng Yujin had already thought about it:
"My job has great flexibility. When the time comes, I will apply for a welfare house in the breeding farm and settle my family in the breeding farm. If you agree, I will apply now. There are many people in the factory, so it is not easy to apply for a house. The breeding farm There are only so many people, and you’re still worried that you won’t be able to apply for a house? Wait! I’ll apply when I get to work tomorrow!”
"..."
"I almost forgot, the gift for you."
Sheng Yujin put the women's watch she had prepared long ago on Xu Yin's wrist solemnly.
Xu Yin met his serious gaze, and her heart felt warm: "Thank you, I like it very much."
He lowered his head, touched her forehead, and said in a ruthless tone: "Put on my watch, and you are mine!"
"..."
It only takes three seconds to talk seriously about you.
