You are on the way to rebirth

Chapter 97 New Years
After Wang Lirong ate the big sister's meal, she felt completely at ease, and she smiled every day until the 29th of the twelfth lunar month.

On the 29th of the twelfth lunar month, someone came to Hongjing's door to propose marriage. It was the village's Aunt Hua. In fact, she was not very old.

Wang Lirong was astonished, Hongjing was only seventeen, and only eighteen after the new year.

Aunt Hua smiled and said: "Nowadays, no one in the ten miles and eight towns knows what your old Jiang's daughter is capable of. I know Hongjing is young, so let's make a decision first, and get married two years later. That's what I'm telling you. That’s right, it’s the crossroads in the town, and all the gates belong to their family.”

Wang Lirong heard that it was this family, and immediately said: "Anyone can consider it, but this one is not."

Aunt Hua said directly: "The conditions are so good, why don't you even think about it?"

"What are you thinking about? If you even deduct a dime from other people, what's so good about this place." Once she was selling vegetables at a fair, Hongying went to her, and she gave her a dollar and went to this place to eat a biscuit Drink a bowl of hot and spicy soup.

Shaobing costs [-] cents each, and a bowl of Hu spicy soup costs [-] cents. Hongying ate two sesame cakes and drank a bowl of Hu spicy soup, and gave the proprietress a dollar. she is gone.

Hongying was crying to find her mother, making Wang Lirong burst into tears, and finally she went to quarrel with the proprietress, and she only gave the dime.

How difficult it was to earn money back then, ten jelly beans could be bought for ten cents, and such picky people had to match Hongjing.

Wang Lirong asked: "Her aunt, let me ask you, how does she know about our Hongjing?"

Aunt Hua saw Wang Lirong's firm attitude and no longer said good things for the man. Lao Jiang's family is not what it used to be, and they will still be able to ask for them if they are not in order. She said: "I saw your car in the town that day. , Ask around who has such a good car, and they say it is your car, and this is the only car in the town."

Wang Lirong couldn't help scolding her mother, being so snobbish, coming to the door to talk about matchmaking when she saw someone's car, really shameless, all the good mood of the past few days was gone.

Jiang Hongjing was even angrier.

She, Hongying and Hongzhi went to the field to fly a kite and dig wild vegetables. A man and a woman came. The man was obviously an older brother, and the woman was a younger sister.The man looked at her for a while and said contemptuously: "It's her, she looks like this, what's the use of having money?" The woman said: "This dress is beautiful. When you get engaged, I will give this dress to me."

Jiang Hongjing is not a child, she immediately understood what they said, this must be a blind date, but this girl really has a good eye.The clothes on her body were bought by Xiao Yu when she was in Guangzhou, they are authentic Hong Kong products, and they still have customs duties.Without further ado, she squatted on the side of the road, grabbed two pieces of dirt and threw them over, a man and a woman ran away, and Jiang Hongjing grabbed two more pieces of dirt and threw them over.

Jiang Hongying and Jiang Hongzhi were flying a kite. Seeing the eldest sister throwing rubbish, she stopped flying the kite and threw a few more.

"Stop playing, go home."

The younger brothers and sisters saw that their sister was unhappy, so they stopped playing and packed up their things and went home, but they didn't know what happened.

Unexpectedly, Aunt Hua came again the next day, and Jiang Hongjing was washing dishes in the yard.

"Hongjing, where's your mother?"

"I'm making dumplings at home, Mrs. Hua, you can go inside."

Aunt Hua entered the room and said embarrassingly: "That family entrusted me to come again, and I was also very embarrassed, so I thought about making another trip."

After all, it is a village, Wang Lirong said: "My Hongjing's vision is high."

Mrs. Hua said: "I've seen her son before. He's not short. He's 1 meters tall. He looks fair and clean. He graduated from high school and opened a video store. The business is going well. Why don't you take a look at him first?" ?”

Wang Lirong was not at ease, what could he do by opening a video store, his income this year might not be as much as that of Hongjing's family in a month, and when he thought about the dime thing in the past, he became angry Rubbing upwards.

Jiang Hongjing came in directly from the outside, and interjected, "Ms. Hua, don't worry, I met that child yesterday, please go back and tell the family, are the two children in his family stupid and stupid? Did I beat you yesterday? Not enough, do you want to beat me up again?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Lirong hurriedly asked, "What's going on?"

Jiang Hongjing talked about the cause and effect, not to mention Wang Lirong, even Aunt Hua felt ashamed, "Niece, don't worry, I will scold him when I go back, is there such a thing?"

When Aunt Hua left, Wang Lirong held onto Jiang Hongjing: "You child, why didn't you tell me about this when you came back."

Jiang Hongjing said: "Is there anything to say, I'm only seventeen, besides, don't you agree that Mrs. Hua is here?"

Wang Lirong said sadly: "My good daughter, telling such a person, my heart is so cold."

Jiang Hongjing quickly comforted him: "Mom, it's nothing serious. Don't take it seriously. Anyway, next year, our grandparents will pick up Jiangbei, and we won't have any contact with people from our hometown. Don't be angry."

Wang Lirong felt uncomfortable seeing her daughter comforting her in return.

The next day was New Year's Eve, Auntie Hua didn't come again, Jiang Hongjing was not very happy with this incident, Xiao Yu called, Jiang Hongjing complained cracklingly, Xiao Yu was so happy that he couldn't help laughing.

The more he laughed, the more angry she became, "You're still laughing."

"Hongjing, wait for me to pick you up."

Jiang Hongjing was shocked, "No, don't come." What's the matter with him coming to pick her up?
"It's okay, anyway, I went back to Jiangbei on the fifth day of the junior high, and I have nothing to do in Jiangbei."

"Why did you come back so early?"

Xiao Yu paused slightly: "After all, it's not my home, so I feel a little uncomfortable."

Jiang Hongjing felt a little distressed at once. In other people's houses, the whole family is reunited for the New Year. Fortunately, he has to spend the New Year at his uncle's house. He couldn't help but feel sad for him, and his tone was unconsciously gentle: "Since you go back, rest first Two days, you will be busy in the future, don't come to pick me up, it will make people laugh."

After talking again, Jiang Hongjing was almost in a better mood.

On the first day of the new year, the family dressed up and came to grandma's house to pay New Year's greetings.

Jiang Hongjing pulled the mat at the door, spread it under his feet, and kowtowed three times to his grandparents. Kowtowing during the New Year is their custom in Jiangbei. Jiang Hongying and Jiang Hongzhi kowtowed after seeing their sister.

Grandma hurriedly said: "Stop knocking, stop knocking."

In fact, kowtowing is a common practice, but this year it is a bit sad.

Jiang Hongying was already smiling and said, "Grandma, please give me the New Year's money."

Grandma hurriedly took out the red envelopes: "It's been prepared a long time ago. Come, one for each person."
