Chapter 80
This year has been extremely busy.Ever since Mrs. Shen met Xing'er from Zhangdian that day, her heart seemed to be tied to her, and she identified Xing'er as her daughter-in-law.

After the Chinese New Year, Xing'er should be ready to go. What Shen meant was that after the Chinese New Year, things would be done right away.

That Mrs. Xin is really not a lazy and slippery person, she came to the door in person within a few days after Mrs. Shen left.When she came to Shen's side and took a look, she saw that the family's life was considered affluent.Looking at Liu Jinglin again, he was completely satisfied.Instead of complimenting him, he continued to comfort him, telling him not to worry, and after a while, his eyes would surely recover after taking a few medicines.

Speaking of Shen's three children, Liu Jinglin was the best.The eldest is short, and the second is not short, but has a dark complexion.Only Liu Jinglin has a tall and well-proportioned figure, which makes people feel comfortable just by looking at him.In the words that Shen often said, it is "the nose is the nose, and the eyes are the eyes".

The Shen family on this side threw herself on Liu Jingren wholeheartedly, trying to find a wife for him, but on the other side, Liu Jinglin was not happy.

When he first heard Mrs. Xin's words, he was surprised for a moment, but he figured it out immediately, it must be Shen's eagerness, deliberately saying that his eye disease will be cured soon.

He didn't say anything at the time, but after Mrs. Xin left, Liu Jinglin told Mrs. Shen directly that if she sincerely wanted to marry someone, she had to tell the truth, and don't delay the girl for nothing.

Hearing this, Shen's anger rose. She worked desperately, begged her grandpa to sue her grandma, worked hard for most of her life, and spent so much effort, wasn't it just to marry him a wife?It's good for him, it's over if he doesn't marry.

Shen was so angry that she picked up the broom broom on the spot and wanted to throw it at Liu Jinglin, but after holding it for a long time, she still couldn't bear it, so she had to throw it heavily on the ground.

Mrs. Li curled her lips aside, thinking that if this was her own man, she might not even use a broom and just use a hoe.Partial eyes are partial eyes.

The news from Cuicui is to let Maizi go to town after the Chinese New Year.Although Mrs. Li was busy helping Maizi pack her luggage, she still did not forget to play her gossiping nature despite being busy.

Mrs. Li was originally on good terms with Mrs. Zheng, but after Liu Changsheng and Mrs. Zheng moved the persimmon trees on the mountain back to their home, who would have thought that not only the ripe persimmons were all rotten, but even the originally lush and lush trees were not many. The sky is dead.Not only did her family not earn a penny, but it took a lot of effort.

As a result, Mrs. Zheng naturally hated Mrs. Li, and the two never spoke to each other since they met.

However, ever since Mrs. Zheng heard that Maizi from Li's family was going to a big family in the town, she wondered how many good things Maizi would bring home in the future.Therefore, he closed the door with a shy face, flattering Maizi and Li Shi one by one, one by one.

Mrs. Li wanted to show off again, so she taunted her and showed off again, and the two got together again.

Mrs. Shen was anxious to tell Liu Jinglin about her daughter-in-law, so Mrs. Li naturally passed the news to Mrs. Zheng.As long as the Zheng family knows something, it means that the whole village knows it.

Now that all the women in the village know about this, Zhangdian and Liujiazhuang are not far away, and men and women who marry each other are always inextricably linked.In this way, this matter will inevitably spread to Zhangdian, and then to Xing'er's family. It will be a matter of time.

Not waiting for Xing'er's family to know, when Mrs. Xin got the news, she rushed to Liu's Village.As soon as she entered the door, she looked unhappy, and had a serious talk with Mrs. Li, finally, Mrs. Li had no choice but to promise a bride price of 20 taels of silver, and made a decision that shocked the neighbors, marrying Chunzi to Xing'er's brother.

Xing'er's mother has been anxious about the marriage of Xing'er's brother Wang Jixiang, but the family is poor, and her son has bad legs. The eldest is not young, and he is several years older than Liu Jinglin.

If you change relatives, you can not only get a dowry gift of 20 taels of silver, and a daughter-in-law, but also have money for the wedding banquet for the son and the dowry money for the wedding of the daughter, which can be said to have solved all the difficulties.

She also inquired about the daughter of that family, she is a good girl with yellow flowers, Xing'erniang has no reason to be dissatisfied.Such a thing that both the two families are satisfied with is so happy, and it is naturally recognized with joy.

Xing'er has always been well-behaved and sensible, almost supporting the burden of the whole family, and heard her mother say that the life of the family is good, the son-in-law is skilled, and her mother-in-law likes her, and will definitely love her in the future, so she no longer hesitates and agrees this marriage.

After Chunzi heard the news, how many times did she cry in secret, and how many times she went to Lianzi's house to talk to Yang Shi, but she couldn't decide her own fate.

Even though Mrs. Yang wanted to protect her, she was only a sister-in-law after all, not the elder sister-in-law. Her parents were there, so she had no part to speak at all. She could only say something to comfort her, and promised to help her more after she got married.

Lianzi was an eye-opener this time. It turned out that the legendary marriage exchange really existed. She had only read it in books before. You can marry a wife.This time, she actually saw it with her own eyes, and it was Chunzi, whom she had always liked very much.

Looking at Chunzi's red eyes and her thinned cheeks, Lianzi couldn't bear it.She wants her to be stronger and to control her own destiny, but when she thinks about it carefully, what can they do?In the end, I had to agree with Yang's statement, and help me more in the future.

Chunzi knew he couldn't do it, and felt sorry for Liu Jinglin, so he slowly accepted this arrangement.

Shen was eager, and wanted to marry Liu Jinglin a wife as soon as possible, and wished that the matter could be settled as soon as possible.In this way, it is scheduled to marry a daughter on the 28th of the first month and a bride on the [-]th of February.

Although there are still more than two months before marrying a wife, the family is already busy.After the new daughter-in-law came in, she was definitely not allowed to live in the south room with Liu Jinglin.

Shen called Liu Jingmin and Liu Jingren, and asked them to repaint the east room where Liu Jingren lived before, and also hung the roof up.Seeing that, Li frowned, and kept poking Liu Jingmin's chest at night and kept nagging, saying that Shen shi is so partial to the third room now, and he might not know how to bully her in the future.

Yang Shi saw that Shen Shi was busy preparing for Liu Jinglin's marriage, but Chunzi's wedding was a month earlier, she didn't seem to remember it, so she had to remind her.

Busy work, soon to the end of the year.

On New Year's Eve, the whole family still eats the New Year's Eve dinner together as in previous years.

Today's New Year's Eve dinner was more sumptuous than before, and Shen Shi even specially ordered Liu Jingren to fetch two catties of old wine.

When the New Year's Eve dinner was served, Mrs. Shen asked Mrs. Li and Mrs. Yang to pour a small cup for each of them. Before eating, she said, "This year is the last year that our family will get together. It won't be long before we will be together." The daughter-in-law is gone, and the daughter-in-law is here."

The dinner table was very quiet, everyone bowed their heads in silence, as if they were sentimental about parting, and there was no celebration of the New Year at all.

Shen said again: "Chunzi, don't be too hard on yourself. Mother is just a girl like you, so I definitely won't harm you."

When Chunzi heard this, tears flowed down line by line like broken beads.

"That Wang Jixiang, I have already inquired. It is true that he used to be a horse thief, but he has long since quit. He is very filial to his old lady at home." When Shen said this, she patted the table with one hand, shaking her wine. the wine shakes slightly

"A filial person, no matter how bad he is, how bad can he be? After you marry, the old woman will love you. As long as you are filial to her, there will be no troubles in the future. The legs of the son-in-law Inconvenience, you can't do too much work in the field, let him learn some crafts from Jing Lin, or do some work with your second brother, it will definitely not be short of your food and drink." She continued.

It turned out that she had already made up her mind, but Lianzi wondered, when did her family agree to give Wang Jixiang some work?
Listening to Chunzi's low sobs, Shen said again: "You can rest assured, as for your dowry, Mother will definitely handle it well."

Lianzi calculated that Liu Jinglin should have earned 200 taels of silver in the past two years.Generally speaking, marrying a daughter-in-law here is at most a matter of 20 taels of silver. The money I have saved is completely enough for Chunzi to get married in a good manner, and then for Liu Jinglin to have a lively wedding.

"There are two marriages to be arranged at once. The two of you should work together and contribute. Your father and I are too old to do it anymore. When we started a family for you, we have already spent a lot of money. Now There is no more time." Shen said again, obviously speaking to the eldest and second bedroom.

Mrs. Yang knew she would say this a long time ago, so she didn't say anything on the spot. Anyway, Liu Jinglin and Chunzi are very good to their family, and she likes them from the bottom of her heart. will be less.

When Mrs. Li heard this, she became anxious, and said, "Mother, our family is not divided, so how can we have any money? Even if there is, it is all under your control. You are asking us for money now." , where can we find it? Maizi will go to town after the new year, and I don’t even have the money to tear a piece of red cloth for her to make a new dress.”

Maizi is thirteen years old, and he is about to leave home and go to town.Mrs. Li knew that she was not going to be a maid, so she wanted to make some new clothes for her and dress her up beautifully.Asked Shen how many times he wanted to pay, but he didn't give a single penny.Mrs. Li had no choice but to borrow some money from her natal family.

"You know whether you have money or not!" Shen said with a glare at her, "Your old lady's coffin book should be enough!"

Mrs. Shen annoyed Mrs. Li's mother the most, she opened her mouth and kept talking, and she loved asking for money the most.However, Mrs. Li had a fling with her mother, and would give her any money she had.

Mrs. Li stopped talking. She had indeed taken a lot of things from her mother's house over the years, but she did it secretly and did not let her mother-in-law see.If she saw her, maybe Shen would chase her to her natal family to get her back, and make a fuss again.
