Lu family's daughter-in-law

Chapter 119 Lu Cheng's Dowry

The new daughter-in-law came in, and the next morning, Ning Xiang led her younger brother and cousin to the east courtyard early.

In the kitchen, Guan Ping was helping Mrs. Li cook. Seeing the three smiling siblings who came over to watch the fun, what to do and what to do, it seemed the same as usual, the only difference was that she called Mrs. Li changed her address. Became a "mother".

The sister-in-law was too calm, and she didn't have the energy to make a fuss. Xu Qiu'er looked around and asked strangely, "Where's my elder brother?"

Mrs. Li almost laughed out loud, looked at his daughter-in-law and guessed: "Your eldest brother is too shy to come out."

Really, other people's young daughters-in-law are shy, but my own family is fine, but such a big son dare not go out like a newlywed.

Xu Qiu'er didn't know if her elder brother got up, so she urged Amu to go inside to have a look.Amu looked up at his sister, and saw that she didn't stop her, so he ran into the west room with a smile, "Brother, my aunt said you were shy... Ah, brother, don't tickle me, sister... sister-in-law..."

Calling her sister didn't work, so Amu cleverly called her sister-in-law.

After yelling, Xu Huai put down his cousin who was flushed with laughter, and Amu escaped panting, Xu Huai followed slowly, his handsome face was also red, until the whole family surrounded him. It was only when we had breakfast together that we barely returned to normal.Mrs. Li looked at the young couple quietly, and seeing that her son still only dared to peek at Guan Ping, she coughed and scolded in distaste: "How do you know how to eat by yourself? Why don't you peel an egg for Ping Niang?"

Facing the family's gaze, Xu Huai blushed, and without thinking about it, he put the freshly peeled eggs into the Guanping bowl.

Guan Ping glanced at him, and finally a blush appeared on his fair face.

Xu Huai stared at her intently, thinking of the intimacy of the two of them last night, and the petite figure leaning against her arms, she suddenly became less nervous.No matter how good she is at dealing with men, she is his wife now, and even allowing him to do that kind of thing, why would he be timid?

So after I stayed all morning, my daughter-in-law went to the west courtyard to chat with her younger sister in the afternoon. Unable to bear the loneliness, Xu Huai walked around the courtyard twice, slowly stood under the eaves of the west courtyard, and said to the window: "Ping Niang, Come here, I have something to ask you."

Guan Ping was sitting on the kang, he was a little surprised when he heard this, and said to Sister Ningxiang, "I'll go and have a look."

Put on your shoes and go.

Ning Xiang and Xu Qiu'er also acted as elder brothers and really had something to do, so they continued to bow their heads and do needlework.

On the other side, Guan Ping went to the yard and found that her husband had already entered the house, and her father-in-law and mother-in-law were not at home, so the yard seemed very quiet.She was curious about what Xu Huai was going to say to her, so she entered the room, and was suddenly hugged by someone, her strong body pressed her against the edge of the kang, and quickly inserted the door with one hand.

There was nothing Guan Ping didn't understand, so he didn't rush to act, he turned his head and glared at Xu Huai, "You want to die, don't you?"

What does he want to do in broad daylight?

"Just once, Ping Niang, I can't help it anymore." Xu Huai succeeded last night, knowing that his daughter-in-law is soft and not hard, so he hugged his daughter-in-law vigorously, not looking at her too calm eyes, just He kept begging in her ear.

The young man who had just married had endless strength and his voice was low and hoarse, and his heart was agitated when he asked for a new bride.

Although Guan Ping refused, he had no power.

Xu Huai had experienced the feeling of being pushed away by her heartily, and understood her hesitation now, so he boldly kissed her directly.

Guan Ping looked over his shoulder and landed on the door bolt. After a long time, he closed his eyes resignedly.

A quarter of an hour later, Guan Ping dressed in a hurry, went to the cabinet and put on makeup in front of the mirror.

Xu Huai lay comfortably on the bed with a satisfied face. The next day, a drizzle can water the crops, and a heavy rain will also do the same.

Guan Ping's legs were still trembling a little, and when he saw her husband's lazy and proud look through the mirror, he gave him a hard look when he packed up and walked out.Xu Huai didn't feel ashamed, and followed her all the time, and kindly reminded: "Stay a little longer, your face is still red."

Guan Ping ignored him, opened the door and walked out, took a sip of cold water, calmed down for a while, and then returned to the west courtyard.

Ningxiang's heartbeat quickened inexplicably.

It was still daytime, and I didn't expect that my seemingly honest cousin was so bad.

Seemingly focused on sewing a few stitches, Ning Xiang suddenly understood Lu Cheng's envy and jealousy of her cousin.

Lu Cheng is looking forward to marrying, she seems a bit, looking forward to marrying.

At the end of winter, the two of them celebrated Dading, and the Lu family sent a betrothal gift.The first one carried were two big geese dyed red, quacking loudly, inexplicably festive. The rest of the betrothal gifts consisted mostly of clothes and satin, and the last one was fine cloth, as well as gold, silver, agate and white jade jewelry, although they were only placed Two boxes, the bright light also made the surrounding villagers envious.

The most direct thing is the dowry money. Twenty small ingots of one tael specially exchanged from the bank were neatly placed in a box covered with red silk and carried all the way from Donglin Village to Xu's house.The dowry in the village, two taels to ten taels is relatively common, 20 taels is not uncommon, but it is also considered rare, no one does not envy Ning Xiang's good life.

It was only today that Ningxiang knew that Lu Cheng had prepared so much, and she couldn't help but make a small calculation in her heart, guessing that Lu Cheng almost gave her all of her family fortune.While rejoicing, she felt that Lu Cheng was too ostentatious, and she was not a face-saving person.

Mrs. Li thought more, and came over at night to scold Lu Cheng with her niece, "What do you think he is going to do with 20 taels? If it is given to you, it is still your husband and wife's. Why don't you spend it together? Why don't you give the bride price ten taels, and you marry me?" After that, I will hand over the money to you. Now it’s all right, he will pay you 20 taels for marrying you, and when the second and third child get married, will you two siblings be happy if you pay 20 taels? Who pays for the [-] taels?”

Now Lu Cheng is the only one making money in the Lu family.

The niece hasn't married yet, and Mrs. Li has already considered the relationship with her sister-in-law.If Lu Yan and Lu Ding could save 20 taels, she wouldn't say a word, but why is 20 taels so easy to save?Lu Cheng only got his wages when he worked as a manager in the orchard. How long did Lu Yan and his brothers have to save for farming alone, and in the end Lu Cheng had to be the eldest brother to chip in the money.Yes, Lu Cheng is the eldest brother, this is what he should do, but it adds up to 40 taels, which is too much. Thinking about Li's pain for his niece.

Don't blame her for taking too much care, which elder doesn't think about the younger generation?Aunt Lu Cheng still despises Amu.

It's all human.

"He is capable. He earned it back after working in the orchard for four years. Besides, those cherry trees are also quite profitable." Ningxiang smiled and settled the accounts for her aunt, "And the second brother... Lu Yan has to stay at home to light the fire He can't get away from cooking, and when I get married, he shouldn't be able to stay idle. Lu Ding is still young, so it's too early to say kiss."

Men in the village get married relatively early. According to Lu Cheng, even though Lu Yan will be eighteen next year, it seems that he doesn't have any thoughts on that. worry.

Why doesn't Mrs. Li understand this truth, she just reminded her niece to have an idea in mind.

After finishing her personal words, Mrs. Li went back to the east courtyard to sleep.

Ning Xiang sent her out, blew on the lamp and got into bed, thinking about him uncontrollably.

28 Destined relatives, it's the twelfth lunar month in a blink of an eye.It was freezing cold, there was no work in the fields, and the peasants were all idle, sleeping under the covers in the morning until dawn. After dinner, they either went to acquaintances' houses or stayed at home.This year Xu Jianingxiang came back, and there was a new daughter-in-law, Guan Ping, which seemed particularly lively.

The new year is approaching, and it is cleaning the house and preparing new year's goods. When you get busy, time passes faster.

The 23rd lunar month is a very festive day, but the sky is not beautiful, and it has been overcast all the time. After lunch, the snowflakes drifted down. It was very small at first, and it turned into heavy snow after a short time. After half an hour, the treetops on the ground, the walls, and the roofs of the people in the front row were all white.

Amu likes snow, so he took his cousin to let him build a snowman with him.

Xu Huai helped his cousin put on his hat, rubbed his hands, and led the little guy out.

Mrs. Li led the three girls to watch at the door of the kitchen.

The movement here attracted Da Zhuang next door, and the boy dressed like a ball ran over to help save snowballs, and turned his head to Amu and said, "Beihe must be frozen, let's go to Beihe tomorrow to play." ?”

"Fuck that, I'll slap anyone who dares to go, don't even think about eating meat during Chinese New Year!" Shi Li scolded immediately with eyes wide open.

Amu was afraid of his aunt, so he turned down his good partner in a low voice, "I won't go, so don't you either."

Da Zhuang turned his back to Li Shi and the others and winked at him, implying that the two of them went secretly.

Amu was a little moved and couldn't help but look at her sister.

Ning Xiang wore an apricot red jacket, met her younger brother's probing gaze, she put away her smile and said, "Don't go."

Amu listened to her sister's words the most, and without any hesitation, she expressed her attitude and ran to save the snow.

Da Zhuang snorted, as if he disliked Amu's worthlessness, dropped the snow in his hand and ran away.

Ningxiang looked at the boy's sturdy back, recalling that her younger brother in her previous life was about to come out tomorrow, her heart sank.

She didn't want her brother to have an accident, and she didn't want Da Zhuang to fall into the river, but the children had a temper, so if they watched him once, they might not be able to watch him every time.

Waking up early the next day, Ning Xiang helped her younger brother put on a padded jacket, and asked him with a smile, "Does Amu want to go ice skating in Beihe?"

Amu nodded instinctively, shook his head in a panic after nodding, and said loudly: "I won't go!"

Even though he is stupid, he still pretends to be smart.

Ningxiang smiled, "But my sister wants to play, so, you can tell Da Zhuang later, and my sister will take you there after dinner."

Call the cousin, and scare the two children, and they will be honest.

It's a pity that Amu is too young to notice the evil in her sister Xing's eyes.
