Girlfriend's Fortune

Chapter 118 Chapter 110 Seventh: Slapping a swollen face to pretend to be fat
Still bought two pieces of ice, went back to Ankangfang, Song Qiu bought wine cakes from the old woman, then went out of the town, and went to Xiaojiachang.

The watermelon was sold out yesterday, so I have to make a trip to buy it today.

There was no time to talk on the way here, this time out of town, there was a quiet time, Song Qiu had something to say to Zhang Lihua.

Zhang Lihua also wanted to tell Song Qiu what she had endured for a long time.

No, as soon as they left the town, they immediately started chattering.

"Aqiu, you don't know how much money my uncle wants when he comes back this time. If you tell me, I will definitely scare you to death! When I went to sleep and heard Zaohua talk about it last night, I was so shocked!"

Zhang Zaohua, who is not yet seven years old, is a clever child. He has been with Zhang Lihua since he was a child, and now he sleeps in the same room with Zhang Lihua. He is naturally close to her in his heart.

If there is something going on at home, I always get together and talk to Zhang Lihua before going to bed at night.

Although she is small, she can learn to speak very vividly.

Zhang Lihua was not there at the time, but after hearing what Zhang Zaohua said, he could imagine what happened yesterday.

The fat chicken that was slaughtered weighed several kilograms, and not all of it was cooked the first night, but a small half was saved, and it was cooked at noon, and it was served with other dishes. The preparation was also very rich.

Coupled with the good wine brought back by Zhang Pumpkin, the father and son drank very happily again.

After drinking for three rounds, when talking about Zhang Song's marriage, Zhang Laodou couldn't help being happy, and said that he wanted to have a good drink to celebrate his grandson's future.

At this time, Zhang Nangua sighed, grabbed Zhang Laodou's hand, with guilt on his face, "Father, it is my son who is incompetent. After studying for more than [-] years, he only got a child. I am really ashamed of you. Hope!"

"Fortunately, my son gave birth to a grandson for you. He is promising!" Having said this, the guilt on Zhang Pumpkin's face became one of pride.

"Song'er is smarter than me, and he is better at reading than I am. There is no master in the school who does not praise him. Mr. Ge told me in private that it will not be a problem for Song'er to pass the entrance examination next year. I will work harder then. , if he personally supervises and teaches, he will surely be able to continue to pass the examination as a scholar and glorify our Zhang family!"

Zhang Laodou's son listened carefully to what he said, first he heard his son ashamed to say that he was incompetent, Zhang Laodou shook his head, what do you mean, his son is promising!Tongsheng is not an easy test. How many Tongsheng can come out of these ten miles and eight villages?
His son is the first one, how can he not be proud of him!

Speaking of grandson again, Zhang Laodou couldn't stop nodding his head, that's right, his grandson is promising, he is very promising, look, even the husband is boasting!
After Zhang Pumpkin finished speaking, Zhang Laodou nodded again and again and said, "Okay! Okay! I'll just wait for Song'er to fancy a scholar, become a high-ranking official, and honor the lintel of my Zhang family!"

He was very pleased and said: "Song Er told you and the Feng family to teach well. It is also the blessing of our Zhang family that he can get such a marriage now. This marriage must be handled well, and we must not miss it. Song Er did it. Ge Fuzi's son-in-law can get him to teach him everything, which is a great thing!"

Seeing that the conversation had reached this point, which was exactly what he wanted, Zhang Pumpkin worked hard in his heart, and immediately took up the conversation.

"Father is right. Being able to marry Mrs. Ge is a great blessing for our family. Ru Niang and I will devote eighteen percent of our energy to it."

"It's just that you don't know, Dad. Apart from Master Ge being a scholar, this Ge family is also a well-established family in the town. Miss Ge, it is not an exaggeration to say that everyone is a young lady. On the day of marriage proposal, Ru Niang and I are also fully prepared, and we have shown all the dignity we can, so that we look good in the Ge family, this is the marriage, and we have discussed the wedding date."

Zhang Laodou nodded when he heard that, he is also a person with good face, the Ge family has a good family background, although their family is not as good as them, but they can't lose face.

"You did a good job in this matter. Song'er is a very promising person in our family and my eldest grandson. The daughter-in-law you want to ask for is also a talented daughter. Naturally, this marriage must be decent."

Zhang Nangua nodded in agreement, "Father is right, that's the reason. No, the marriage proposal has been brought up, and we are discussing the marriage. The dowry is the most important thing in the two discussions."

"The Ge family doesn't have any other requirements. They don't want a lot of money, and don't want any great dowry. Even if there is no dowry, they don't care, they just like Song'er."

"The only thing is, their family asked for it, and it's a must."

Hearing that the Ge family didn't want a betrothal gift, they fell in love with their grandson. Zhang Laodou was very happy to hear that his eldest grandson was promising.

There is something necessary for this sudden surprise, Zhang Laodou was curious, "What is it?"

Is there anything more important than a million dollars?
Do you want Song'er to marry?
This will not work!

This is the seed of his Zhang family, so he can't be a son-in-law for outsiders!

He is still waiting for his grandson to honor his ancestors and give him a face!
If you go to someone else's house, you are nothing.

Zhang Nangua was a little hesitant and embarrassed, until Zhang Laodou couldn't wait and urged him several times, then he sighed and said: "This request, for the Ge family, is indeed not embarrassing our family, but For our family, it is a bit difficult."

"The Ge family can do nothing, but they must buy a house in the county town as the residence of Song'er and his young couple after they get married."

Buying a house in the county?
Zhang Laodou thought it was a matter of getting married, but he never thought it was this.

This is more acceptable to him than being married, but after reacting, he almost bit his tongue.

"How much money does it cost to buy a house in the county town!"

Zhang Nangua also sighed, "What the main person Ge Fuzi said is also reasonable. If Song'er ends up winning the Tongsheng next year, and then wins the Xiucai, he will not go to the school in the town, and he has to go to the county. Go to the county to study. There are a lot of students there, all of them are knowledgeable people, it is beneficial to Song'er, Song'er can enter the county school, step by step, in the future, he will pass the exam, and even higher, Ge Fuzi has planned very well for this .”

"When Song'er gets married, the young couple can't separate, right? It's appropriate to have a daughter-in-law by my side to take care of Song'er's daily life. It's impossible for Mr. Xiucai to rent a house in the county town. It would be inconvenient if he entertained classmates or something. ?”

"So, the Ge family's request to buy a house in the county is fundamentally for the sake of our Song'er."

"If you can't agree to such a request, what does the Ge family think of our family? How do you think of Song'er? It's just that the son has spent a lot of money from his parents in studying for so many years. It's really not good to talk to his father this time. Yes, it's really a bit of a dilemma! Because of this, my son can't sleep well for several nights in a row, this marriage cannot be missed, but how can our family afford a house in the county town?"

Buying a house in the county town is really unthinkable. If he had just returned from Shangguan in the early years, he would naturally have enough money.

But Zhang Laodou is a face-saving person, and his heart was hit hard by the sentence that Mr. Xiucai could not return the rented house.

He had a lot of thoughts in his mind, and all the thoughts were floating around, finally, he gritted his teeth, "Buy! Song'er's marriage is important, we can't let the Ge family look down on us and Song'er!"

This is to slap a swollen face and pretend to be fat.
