farmer's little girl

After Chapter 88, who will serve the footwashing water?

It was the same in her previous life. Her mother gave her this booklet the night before she got married.

She was ignorant, opened it to look, and almost felt ashamed.After a quick look, she closed her eyes in panic, and when her mother came to ask her in embarrassment the next day, but after reading it, she just nodded.It was later discovered that it was passed down from her grandmother to her mother, and her mother passed it down to her.

Seeing this slightly yellowed booklet at this time, Lu Jiaoyue didn't feel shy, thinking of her mother just now, she couldn't help but laugh a little more.

The moon was shining faintly outside, Lu Jiaoyue leaned on the window rail and looked at the moon outside.

Different from the anxiety and anxiety in her previous life before she got married, in this life her heart is full of peace.I don't know what he is doing now?Whether she is also looking forward to tomorrow like she is at this time.

At the same time, the east wing of Zhou Jin's house was brightly lit, and two large round tables were set up in the main room, all present were some of Zhou Jin's brothers and subordinates who were in the gambling house back then.Being able to come here has a lot to do with each other. Everyone talked and laughed while drinking. It has been almost two hours since the sun has not set yet.

Many people at the table had drunk too much, but they still held on.Zhou Jin looked at them with a wine glass and couldn't help shaking his head and smiling.

Mei Zhuangyi grabbed his shoulder and said: "Now you are going to get married, let's talk about it first, if you don't treat Yue'er well in the future, I can't forgive you."

In fact, Mei Zhuangyi was almost drunk at this moment, his cheeks were flushed, and his eyes were hazy. After all, he had been drinking for a long time, but his consciousness was quite clear, just a little excited.

He had said this to Zhou Jin no less than dozens of times. At first Zhou Jin knew how to respond, but now he didn't even bother to nod his head.

"Huh, didn't you hear me?" Zhou Jin ignored him, obviously Mei Zhuangyi was not drunk at the moment.

Gou Da, who was drinking with others, shook the paper fan in his hand, and said, "Okay, Brother Mei, you have told Brother Jin about this a dozen times, and I can hear calluses in my ears. You Don’t worry, who is Brother Jin, he is usually not a womanizer, and since he plans to get married, he must be serious about his life.” In the past, most of them were called Brother Han, but Zhou Jin changed his surname to Brother Zhou always A little awkward, so I followed the previous small part of the address, Brother Jin.

The dog knocked the paper fan on the palm of his hand, suddenly remembered something, and said: "By the way, brother Jin, you said that you are still a baby, will you not be able to find a place for the wedding night in the bridal chamber tomorrow?"

Hearing this, several people who were not drunk all looked over.

The reason why Gou Da said this is also a story.Back then, when I got married, everyone sat together and drank wine like today, and helped us to welcome the bride the next day. After welcoming the bride back, everyone gave me another shot, then patted my ass and left. up.

When the dysentery appeared the next day, his face was so long that no one asked him what was going on, but he didn't say anything.After a few days like this, everyone was not curious anymore. Instead, their heads were scratched as if they were scratched by a kitten's paw, and the whole person seemed extremely anxious.At the moment, no one asked him what was wrong, but he always approached people from root to root. The key point was that he just said why, and everyone continued to let him go.

After hanging it out for a few days, I couldn't bear the diarrhea anymore, and finally told the story.

It turned out that he didn't succeed on the wedding night in the bridal chamber. I don't know if it was because he was dazzled or because he was really inexperienced, but he didn't succeed anyway.And not only that day, these days he failed, and he hid in the house with his wife to try at night, both of them were in severe pain, so they had to end it hastily and fight again the next day.

In the past two days, his wife has always looked at him with strange eyes, no matter how dull her head is, she can understand the meaning.His daughter-in-law is suspicious of him!
Combined with the nasty jokes he heard every time he sat and talked with those people in the gambling house, he felt that he was not incapable, but that he hadn't found the right way, which is why he was always jumping up and down in a hurry in recent days, but I'm really sorry that what I told you all happened.

After the news came out, everyone almost stopped laughing.However, after being instructed by some people, he has already started his journey as a novice. He has tasted the sweetness, so naturally he will not take these ridicules into his heart, and only thinks that these people are jealous of him for marrying a daughter-in-law.

"That's right, Brother Jin, don't make such jokes as you do when the time comes."

Zhou Jin's face was as stiff as a rock. According to the usual practice, he would laugh and curse a few times, but today he didn't know what happened, so he didn't speak.

Gou Da saw it in his eyes, smiled in his heart, took out a few booklets from his arms, and patted them in front of Zhou Jin.

"This is something I have treasured for many years, Brother Jin, please remember to return it to me when the time comes." He smiled obscenely, not at all as polite as he usually appears in front of big girls.

Mei Zhuangyi didn't know about the joke about the head of the head, seeing that it was still a bit foggy, and seeing Gou Da take out a few books, he stretched out his hand and copied one.

"What's the matter?"

Flipping it casually, he poohed a few times, and quickly threw it on Zhou Jin's lap.Although he immediately picked up the wine glass to hide his embarrassment, it was still obvious to others.

Gou Da came over like a rascal, "I didn't see it, Brother Mei is also a young child, thanks to you usually sitting with us and talking dirty jokes so slippery."

Mei Zhuangyi pushed him away and stood up, "I drank too much, go to bed!"

After speaking, the person left, and there was a roar of laughter behind him.

Zhou Jin also stood up, and said: "I'm almost done too. I have to get up early tomorrow, so I'll go to bed first. Go ahead, but remember to leave someone to clean up here."

After Zhou Jin left, everyone realized that the books on the table were gone, and naturally there was another burst of laughter.

The morning light was twilight, and Erfang's family began to get busy early in the morning.

Today, not only Zhou's family will set up wine, but also Erfang's. Although the running water banquet will start at noon, preparations must be made in advance.

Lu Jiaoyue woke up very early, but Mrs. Mei didn't wake her up, she brought her breakfast and let her continue to sleep, saying that she was tired a little today.Therefore, Lu Jiaoyue had no choice but to continue to sleep, and when she woke up, she found that many people had already come to the house.

Most of them are women from the village. Uncle Lu and Uncle Lu’s family also came. The men helped Lu Minghai and the others busy borrowing the table to set the table, while the women were busy washing and cutting vegetables. Used to make noodles.There are also quite a few children, all beaming, whistling in and out of the yard from time to time.From time to time, some adults in the family would laugh and reprimand, but they could only take care of it for a while, and it didn't take long for them to revert to their old ways.

Guiya came in, saw that Lu Jiaoyue was awake, and told Mei Shi not to get off the kang.According to the rules of the country, on the day of marriage, the bride cannot touch the ground before entering the new house.

Guiya turned around and went out to spread the message, not long after, a large group of people poured into Lu Jiaoyue's room.

All are women.

Her grandmother, aunt and two cousins, as well as several aunts and sisters-in-law of the third grandpa's house came.Everyone was full of laughter and their faces were full of joy.

Everyone chatted around Lu Jiaoyue for a while, and then they all went out to help, leaving only Grandma Liu Shi alone.

"Grandma heard from your little uncle that Zhou Jin was a good person, and everyone knew him well, so he wouldn't be afraid of you being wronged in the future... I didn't expect that Yue'er in our family is so old now, and we are going to get married..." He said As she said that, Liu's tears fell, tears of joy and tears of reluctance.

When the girl leaves the school, she belongs to someone else's family.

"Grandma..." Lu Jiaoyue snuggled into Liu Shi's arms, her eyes were red and said: "In the future, Yue'er will often visit grandma, just like before."

Liu wiped away her tears with a handkerchief, "Okay, let's not talk about it, today is a happy day for my Yueer, and it's my grandmother's fault for telling you about this." She took out a bag from her purse. The square handkerchief was handed to Lu Jiaoyue: "This is the bottom of the box that grandma gave you, you keep it."

Lu Jiaoyue was worried about the private conflicts of the Mei family and didn't want to, but Liu's scolded her: "You little man, don't worry too much. Grandma's own private money can be spent as she wants. Back then you When my mother got married, my grandmother gave her a sum of money from a private house, and you are the only granddaughter in our family, and we can’t do without you, it’s always good for a daughter’s family to have her own money from a private house.”

Lu Jiaoyue could only accept it.

Mrs. Liu told her some truths about being a wife and a mother, and it was noon when she was told to go out to eat rice noodles, but Lu Jiaoyue couldn't go out and stayed in the house.

In the afternoon, Mrs. Mei personally helped her daughter put on her wedding dress.

The bright red wedding dress was embroidered with lotuses at the lapel, sleeves and skirt. This was Lu Jiaoyue's own embroidered wedding dress.Since getting engaged to Zhou Jin, she has been working on and off for several months.

The big sleeves of the red dress are like clouds in the morning glow, and the wide waistband embroidered with lovebirds around the waist seems to be getting thinner, outlining a touch of tenderness and tenderness.Lu Jiaoyue, with her cloud-like hair loose, sat on the kang, looking at the bronze mirror on the kang table.

"It's so pretty." Mei stroked her daughter's hair affectionately.

Sitting beside her was also smiling, "Your mother didn't know how to embroider back then, and the wedding dress she wore when she got married was embroidered for her by her grandmother. Now my daughter is better than a mother. Our Jiaoyue's craftsmanship is It's getting better and better. If it's..." Liu Shi paused, but didn't continue.

Mei hurriedly answered, "Mother, it's been so many years, and you still laugh at me."

Hearing this, Liu Shi didn't care about being sad, but laughed.

Lu Jiaoyue's aunt Qi came in.

She is the daughter-in-law of Grandpa Lu Jiaoyue's family. She has both parents, a harmonious husband and wife, and both children.People in the country are more superstitious about this. They firmly believe that if a Quanfu person combs her hair, her married daughter will be as happy as a Quanfu person. Therefore, when a family has a daughter who is married, they will invite a Quanfu person to help their daughter look better and comb her hair.

Mrs. Qi cleaned her hands in the basin first, then took off her shoes and got on the kang, kneeling beside Lu Jiaoyue.

She first applied hot water to Lu Jiaoyue's face, wiped it off, and then took out a red cotton thread from her bosom. The two ends of the thread were tied together, crossed in a 'scissors' shape, and then stuck to Lu Jiaoyue. Moon's face.

First play it on the upper, middle and lower parts of her face, and say something in her mouth, "I respect the parents of heaven and earth, I wish the husband and wife a harmonious life, and I wish the children and grandchildren are full." Then I played three times on the left, middle and right sides of her face, " The left side gives birth to a precious son early, the middle side works hard and thriftly manages the family, and the right side lives forever."

Then he twisted her face with a red thread.

Qi's workmanship was very good, before Lu Jiaoyue felt the pain, it was over.Afterwards, Mrs. Qi picked up a small razor from the kang table and trimmed her temples twice.

The next step was to comb her hair. Mrs. Qi took a brand new jujube comb and combed it down along the top of Lu Jiaoyue's head.While brushing his mouth, he sang: "

Comb to the hair, don't worry about wealth;

Two combs to the head, no disease and no worries;
Three combs to the head, more children and longer life;
Comb to the end again, raising the eyebrows again;
Comb two combs to the end, fly together together;
Comb three combs to the end, forever tied together;
There are heads and tails, riches and honors. "

Mei Shi watched from the side and wiped away tears, so did Liu Shi.After Mrs. Qi finished brushing her hair, she smiled and persuaded them a few words, and the two laughed again.

After combing the hair, the next step is to apply makeup.

Because Lu Jiaoyue was born well, Mrs. Qi didn't put too much makeup on her, but just put a thin layer of powder on her face, and lightly traced her eyebrows, and then helped her put on rouge.

"Okay, your Tang aunt only has this skill, but our Yue'er was born well, so we can be beautiful without these."

Mei Shi took out a big red seal and stuffed it, Qi pushed it twice, but still accepted it.This is the rule in the countryside. If someone from Quanfu is invited to comb their hair, they will always be given a red seal.

At this time, it was almost dusk.

There was the sound of firecrackers and gongs and drums outside, and Lu Jiaoyue's cousin Qian Shi ran in with a smile on her face.

"The groom is coming to marry the bride, is Yue'er ready?"

"Okay, okay." Mrs. Mei hurriedly helped Lu Jiaoyue sit up, and took a red veil to cover her head.

Outside the courtyard of Erfang's house, there was a bustling scene.

Firecrackers and firecrackers have been blown up for several rounds, Zhou Jin and the people who came to welcome his relatives today stuffed many small red envelopes inside, but still did not call the door open.

Inside the door, Mei Zhuangyi was the leader, beside Lu Guangzhi, Wu Lang, Liu Lang, and some relatives and friends.

"No, no, you can't open the door with a light plug and a red seal. Next, I'll ask you a few questions. I'll open the door for you when you answer to our satisfaction." Mei Zhuangyi said through the door.

Zhou Jin was very helpless by the uproar, and just waited for the answer to say yes.

"Who will take care of the family's money in the future?"

"Who cares? Who cares?" The people on the side booed.

Outside the door, Hu San laughed and cursed, "This brother Mei can change his face really quickly, he became a traitor in a blink of an eye."

The big dogs on the side were all smiling, looking at Zhou Jin to see how he would answer.

Zhou Jin cleared his throat, "Yue'er is in charge."

"Who are you, Yue'er?"

"Yue'er is my wife."

"Daughter-in-law is just daughter-in-law, what's her nickname!" A kind-hearted villager watching the excitement at the door pointed out.

"My daughter-in-law takes care of it."

"The sound is too low to hear!"

"My daughter-in-law will take care of the money from now on!"

There was a lot of laughter inside, and Mei Zhuangyi asked again: "Who will do the work at home in the future?"

"I'll do it!" Zhou Jin quickly got into the mood.

"Who will cook the next meal?"

"I do!"

"Who will serve the water for washing feet in the future?"

"I'll take it!"

In the room, Lu Jiaoyue blushed when she heard that, Mei went out and said, "It's alright, alright, stop making trouble. You're already old, and you still look like a child."

Someone on the side joked: "The mother-in-law already knows that she loves her son-in-law before the daughter goes out."

But Mei was so ashamed that she pouted a few times, and hurried back into the house.

Mei Zhuangyi cleared his throat and said loudly, "Since the mother-in-law begged for mercy, we will let you go."

"Then open the door quickly."

As soon as the voice fell, the door opened from the inside, and people outside immediately poured into the yard.

Amidst the crackling sound of firecrackers, Lu Jiaoyue was supported onto Lu Guangyi's broad back.Daxi Village is not happy to cry for marriage. The bride must be beautiful and happy to marry, so that she can be happy in the future.

Lu Jiaoyue knew this, but she still couldn't help her eyes turning red.

There was a fiery red in front of her eyes, and she heard her mother choked up and said: "Be good..."

"Why cry, the child will marry nearby..." her grandmother said.

In a daze, Lu Jiaoyue felt that she had left the courtyard, and her ears were filled with noise and firecrackers.A pair of big hands supported her arms, and soon she was put into the sedan chair.

"The bride sits down, get up the sedan chair—"

There was another deafening sound of firecrackers, and the sedan chair slowly rose, and then swayed forward.

Knowing that Lu Jiaoyue was getting married today, Du Lian deliberately brought Lu Guili to Daxi Village based on some hidden psychology.

Although Widow Du came to Lu's house before, there was a bit of trouble, but after all, it was the young lady who returned to her mother's house, and it was hard for the Hu family to do anything.Cui's daughter was naturally distressed while holding her daughter, but old man Lu was sitting on the kang, smoking dry cigarettes, without making a sound.

It was only after Du Lian came to Lu's house that he realized that there was a dispute between this side and the second room. The second room's daughter got married, but he didn't invite the old man Lu and the big room's family.Du Lian couldn't help but feel a sense of disgust in his heart, who are these people, who have caused others to hate him so much.

Du Lian walked out of the hospital on the pretext of going out to get some air.

The hustle and bustle not far away made people feel irritable. He walked over in a strange way, and naturally witnessed Zhou Jin's group of people coming to welcome the relatives and calling the door.

The man in red was dark and strong, and his appearance was not good.No matter what, Du Lian couldn't associate him with the delicate and beautiful Lu Jiaoyue.

A flower stuck in cow dung!
That flower should match me!

Obviously these thoughts have faded a lot in the unsatisfactory life, but at this time they popped up in Du Lian's heart again.He looked at this scene with jealousy in his eyes. This person can be compared to his, that is, he has more things than him!

Even if Du Lian married Lu Guili back then, he intended to make a face for himself, but he only borrowed a carriage to marry him, but he didn't invite a sedan chair.It's not that I can't afford it, if he asks, his mother is willing to pay him the money.It's just that in the countryside, most of them are ox carts and mule carts to welcome relatives. Horse carts are already a very good treatment, and only people in the county or town will make these fancy things.

Du Lian watched helplessly as Lu Jiaoyue, who was dressed in red and covered her head, was being sent into the sedan chair, and didn't want to watch it any longer.He was about to turn his head to leave, but bumped into someone head-on.

"Du, little uncle..." Lu Jiaoxing lowered her flushed face and called out in a low voice.

Du Lian nodded indifferently, and walked past her to the big room.

Lu Jiaoxing turned her head and watched his tall and straight figure disappear around the corner.

The sedan chair went around the village three times before being carried into the gate of Zhou's house.

Lu Jiaoyue was sent to her new house, and after Zhou Jin lifted her hijab, she was dragged out to drink by a group of men.

"I didn't scare you, they just like to mess around." Zhou Lamei said with a smile.Today my younger brother was overjoyed, she had already come to sit in the town in person, and Li Shuicheng also came today, drinking with others outside.

Lu Jiaoyue blushed and shook her head.

At this time, a woman walked in from the door. She was wearing a red jacket and skirt, and she could be seen as a great beauty when she was young.

"Mother." Zhou Lamei called out, "This is Yue'er." She pulled the woman to Lu Jiaoyue.

This woman is the Zhuang family.

Zhuang's face was full of joy, with tears in his eyes, as if he couldn't get enough of Lu Jiaoyue.

"Good boy, live a good life with Jin'er in the future. Jin'er is suffering, so you should love him more in the future..." Zhuang said, holding Lu Jiaoyue's hand.

Zhou Lamei said angrily: "Mother, what are you talking about. Also, you shouldn't come here at this moment. You should wait for the tea service tomorrow, so that mother-in-law and daughter-in-law can meet each other."

Mrs. Zhuang paused for a moment, and said: "I'm a little impatient, wait for the tea offer tomorrow, wait for the tea offer tomorrow..."

Soon, Zhuang Shi left.

Zhou Lamei wanted to say something to Lu Jiaoyue, but she hesitated to speak, she just let Lu Jiaoyue sit comfortably, and she went to bring her something to eat.

At this time, it was already dark outside, and the yard was very lively. Sitting in the new house, Lu Jiaoyue could hear the noise outside.

After eating something, Lu Jiaoyue washed off the powder on her face in the small room behind the screen.Afterwards, she changed into a water-red pajamas before returning to the kang and sitting down.

This pajamas was also made by herself, using the fabric that Mei Zhuangyi brought her back from the south, it was smooth and smooth, and it was very comfortable to wear.In fact, the so-called pajamas are a pair of underwear with a blouse outside.

As the time passed, Lu Jiaoyue felt sleepy again and again.In a trance, she fell asleep with her elbows propped on the Kang table, and she didn't wake up until she heard the sound of the door being opened.

It was Zhou Jin.

He is dressed in red, his cheeks are slightly flushed, his eyes are sleepy, but his steps are still steady.The smell of alcohol all over his body showed that he drank a lot outside.

Lu Jiaoyue hurriedly greeted him, helped him to the edge of the kang and sat down.

"Are you feeling uncomfortable, do you need me to make you a bowl of tea to soothe the hangover?"

"No need." Zhou Jin shook his head and grabbed her, "I'm fine, you sit down, I'll come after I wash up."

When the house was first built, Zhou Jin specially asked the mason to build an extra small house in the inner part of the east room, which had a stove and a water tank, and placed the bathtub and toilet brought by Lu Jiaoyue as a dowry, and used it as a bathroom. to make.So Zhou Jin didn't go out, but turned around and hid behind the screen.

There was the sound of water coming from inside, and Lu Jiaoyue, who was sitting on the edge of the kang, suddenly became nervous.

I wasn't nervous when I got married, and I wasn't nervous when I prayed to him. I wasn't even nervous when I lifted the hijab and was teased about the beauty of the bride. But at this time, the nervousness came unexpectedly.

Lu Jiaoyue's fingers couldn't help picking at the quilt on the kang, she suddenly remembered the time before, and that huge corn cob.

what to do?If it hurts later, should she kick him away, or grit her teeth and bear it?

Remembering that after her mother left last night, she secretly glanced at the booklet again, Lu Jiaoyue couldn't help but blush again.For a while, his face turned red and then white, white and then red, which showed that he was entangled in his heart.

"What are you thinking about?"

Suddenly a voice sounded above the head, it turned out that Zhou Jin had come out from inside at some time.He was dressed in snow-white undershirt and trousers, the top of the skirt was not closed, revealing a dark and muscular chest, and there were still drops of water on it, which seemed to be that the man carelessly forgot to dry it.

Lu Jiaoyue couldn't help feeling a little inexplicably dry mouthed and closed her eyes subconsciously, but the scene she just saw was still playing back in her mind.

"Why are you ashamed? You're already married to me!"

After a whirlwind, Lu Jiaoyue's back rested on the kang, she subconsciously stretched out her hand to push it, but Zhou Jin grabbed her hand and placed it on top of her head.

"Uncle Jin..."

"What for?" Zhou Jin lowered his head, frowning, studying the knots on her clothes.

"Let's talk first, shall we?" Lu Jiaoyue lay there with her head tilted, her toes tensed up nervously.

"What do you want to say?" Zhou Jin said casually, moving his hands.

"Just say anything..."

"By the way, you shouldn't call me Uncle Jin now."

Lu Jiaoyue was taken aback, "Then what should I call you?"

"Call it whatever you want. Well, we shouldn't be talking about that now, but..."

It was only then that Lu Jiaoyue realized that at some point in time, he had untied her clothes, revealing the bellyband with big red embroidered mandarin ducks playing in the water.
