Happy Life in Siheyuan

Chapter 282 You are the one who joked first

"Don't come here!"

When Luo Hongquan saw Xu Lingjun approaching, his body trembled suddenly, and he said with some horror.

"Don't be afraid, I won't do anything, I want to discuss it with you, and we'll come over to pick up the bride tomorrow morning."

Xu Lingjun smiled slightly and said softly.

"No need! Just take the person away!"

Luo Hongquan subconsciously refused.

He didn't want to face Xu Lingjun for a minute now.

"What if I say I must!"

Xu Lingjun's face turned cold, and he said in a deep voice.

"All right, all right, do whatever you say."

Luo Hongquan's heart trembled, he nodded hurriedly and said.

"Well! Go buy some new clothes today, and bring them to my sister-in-law as a dowry. Also, you can get some firecrackers to make it more festive."

Xu Lingjun nodded slowly and said.

"This"

Luo Hongquan showed a look of pain.

"What? Is there any problem? We gave you 100 yuan as a bride price, isn't that too much to ask for!"

Xu Lingjun frowned and said with some displeasure.

"No, no problem."

Luo Hongquan gritted his teeth, shook his head and said.

"Okay, then we'll go back first, and come back tomorrow to pick up the bride. If there is any problem then, don't blame me for being rude!"

Xu Lingjun took a deep look at Luo Hongquan and said in a deep voice.

After speaking, he pulled Li Jianguo out with a look of reluctance.

"Brother-in-law, it's really thanks to you this time."

On the way, Li Jianguo said gratefully.

"Ham, our family doesn't speak the same language, but you'd better be mentally prepared. If my sister-in-law still refuses to go with you tomorrow, then there's nothing I can do."

Xu Lingjun waved his hand and said.

"I see."

Li Jianguo's expression darkened, and he said in a low voice.

Xu Lingjun looked at Li Jianguo and couldn't help sighing inwardly.

As my uncle, it's not good to like any girl, but I just like such a girl.

No idea, weak temper, and bad family, I really don't know what is good about marrying such a girl home?
Even if things really happen, there will be no less troubles in the future.

Ah, forget it!

Anyway, he has already helped what he should have helped, and if there is any trouble in the end, it is Li Jianguo's own fault.

After more than an hour, they returned home.

When Hu Meilan saw them coming back, she couldn't wait to ask about the situation.

Xu Lingjun didn't say much, and let Li Jianguo talk to Hu Meilan.

When Hu Meilan heard that the matter had been settled, she immediately began to tidy up the house with great joy.

Li Jinmin also showed a bright smile on his face, and immediately pulled Li Jianguo and Xu Lingjun to discuss the matter of holding a banquet for the wedding tomorrow.

It didn't take long before the discussion was about the same. Under Li Jinmin's arrangement, all the family members mobilized.

Li Jinmin took Li Jianjun out to call for help, and notified relatives to come over for a wedding.

Li Xiuzhi took care of the baby at home and helped Hu Meilan clean up the house.

Li Jianguo and Xu Lingjun were arranged to go to the county to buy supplies, and also ordered some chicken, duck, fish and other ingredients from the supply and marketing cooperative.

After eating at noon, they borrowed an ox cart from the production team in the village and set off.

Seeing the bullock cart, Xu Lingjun breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he wouldn't be too tired even if he walked for a day, it was a little bit aggrieved.

Sitting in the bullock cart, shaking and shaking all the way, it took more than two hours before they arrived at the county seat.

This speed is not much faster than walking, but it is not so tiring.

After entering the county seat, Li Jianguo went straight to the department store to buy new quilts, new clothes, new towels, new toothbrushes and so on.

Because he had already thought about what to buy before he came, so he quickly arranged everything.

With a beaming expression on his face, he tied his things to the bullock cart and said with a smile: "Brother-in-law, let's go, we can go back."

"Wait, I want to buy something."

Xu Lingjun frowned and said with a smile.

After finishing speaking, he started to walk towards a car repair booth not far away.

Li Jianguo was taken aback for a moment, then hurriedly led the cow and followed Xu Lingjun.

"Brother, how do you sell your bicycles here?"

Xu Lingjun glanced at the several bicycles in the garage and asked with a smile.

The stall owner was a middle-aged man. He glanced up at Xu Lingjun, and immediately showed a warm smile.

"My bicycle is almost new. If you want it sincerely, you can take it for 120 yuan."

Xu Lingjun frowned slightly, and said with some displeasure: "Brother, you are taking me for a fool! The new car is only 180 yuan, even if your car is [-]% new, it is second-hand after all. How dishonest it is!"

"Hey! Then you make an offer, and if it's right, I'll sell you."

The stall owner was not at all embarrassed, laughed a few times, and said.

"Sell it for 50 yuan?"

Xu Lingjun groaned for a moment, and cut off more than two-thirds of it.

"Are you kidding me? You can buy two wheels for 50 yuan."

The stall owner was slightly taken aback, his face darkened.

"You were the one who made fun of me first."

Xu Lingjun retorted unceremoniously.

"Forehead"

The stall owner was speechless for a moment. He looked at Xu Lingjun carefully, then pondered for a while, and said, "Okay, I won't come with you. It's only 80 yuan, and I can take it away."

"If you lose a little more, I will take it. Anyway, you will definitely not lose money."

Xu Lingjun said with a slight smile.

The stall owner frowned and pondered for a while, and finally said in a deep voice, "At least 78, you can't pull it down."

Xu Lingjun raised his eyebrows, turned his head to look at those bicycles, thought for a while, nodded and said, "Okay, give me the innermost one."

"This"

The stall owner looked at Xu Lingjun hesitantly.

"What? You don't want to go back on your word, do you?"

Xu Lingjun said with an unhappy face.

"Okay, okay, I'm unlucky."

The stall owner said with a grumpy face.

In fact, among his few bicycles, only the innermost one is really [-]% new, and the others are more or less defective in parts.

When he saw Xu Lingjun's extraordinary temperament, he thought that he could slaughter a fat sheep, but he didn't expect to get himself into it in the end.

Although he won't lose money, he doesn't earn much.

Xu Lingjun didn't talk nonsense, and directly took out 80 yuan from his pocket and handed it to the stall owner, and then waited for the stall owner to get back 2 yuan.

Then, he unceremoniously stepped forward and pushed out the innermost bicycle, walked up to Li Jianguo, laughed and said, "Brother, let's go!"

"Ah! Oh!"

Li Jianguo responded as if he had just woken up from a dream, and then he looked at the bicycle in Xu Lingjun's hand with envy on his face.

In this day and age, there is no one who does not want a bicycle.

"Don't look, wait until tomorrow to welcome the bride, and this car will pick up the bride for you."

Xu Lingjun said with a smile.

After finishing speaking, he directly stepped on his bicycle and rode leisurely towards the outside of the city.

Li Jianguo's eyes lit up immediately, and he hurriedly got into the bullock cart and followed Xu Lingjun.
