The peasant's daughter-in-law of crossing

Chapter 3

Ying Niang was upset when she heard the noise in the yard.Regardless of whether the marriage is good or not, at least the day of marriage will be smooth.

As soon as the groom came, the two families started to fight. How will the in-laws get along with each other in the future?Isn't it just a wedding gift, one party refuses to give it, the other party has to ask for it, so as to make both parties unhappy on the big day.This really made Yingniang unable to understand.

Immediately afterwards, the quarrel became more and more fierce, and neither side would give in.What the Lin family meant was that they would not marry their daughter if they did not receive the wedding gift.

What the Xue family meant was that the bride price was all given, and the wedding dress was also sent by Yingniang, and the family vacated a room for them, and bought a few pieces of furniture.It is already very good to be able to do this by marrying a relative. I hope the Lin family will not go too far.No matter what, they will take Yingniang over today.

Father Lin sat on the side and sneered, "Could it be that you still want to grab it?"

"If you don't give it to others, we have to take it back!" The elder who welcomed the relatives answered simply.

Father Lin and Li Xinghua turned pale with anger, and said in unison: "You dare!"

Zhuzi and Genzi also stood in front to demonstrate, glaring fiercely at the elder who welcomed the bride.

Zhuzi was still plausible, "In broad daylight, you dare to rob the women?" He greeted the villagers who had already finished the banquet, "Everyone come here! The Xue family has come to our Linjia Village to see where they can go wild!"

When Yingniang heard this, this younger brother was rather domineering, he seemed to be a good fighter in gang fights!They don't really fight, do they?If getting married turns into a group fight, it would be too tragic!
The elder of the Xue family still showed no sign of weakness, "Snatching a civilian girl by force? Younger brother of the Lin family, you have to figure it out, we have given a bride price, and there is also a matchmaker's words, even if you find Li Zheng to judge, it is your Lin family's fault .If you dare to start a fight first, Lizheng will report it, and maybe you may be arrested and sent to the county jail!"

At this time, Li Xinghua yelled loudly: "Zhuzi, take a few people to guard the door, don't let the Xue family go in and snatch your sister. Our Lin family will never attack first, let's see what the Xue family will do?"

Zhuzi immediately called several teenagers who usually played with him to block the gate, and Genzi followed.

Seeing the situation, the Xue family had no better idea, so they kept silent.Let the two sides just do it!
Yingniang was still wondering who was the groom, she didn't seem to hear the voice of the strange young man.As the groom who came to welcome the bride, he wouldn't be a shrinking turtle, would he?When something like this happened, he should think of a solution quickly.As soon as she thought about it, she heard someone say, "Second Uncle, why don't we find a way to get together the money for the wedding gift? It's not a problem if it takes so long. Parents are still waiting at home."

This is the voice of an extremely young man, young enough to make Yingniang feel that he is probably not full, and he is her husband-in-law?
"Boming, you can't be so cowardly. It's not a matter of money now. The Lin family is so unreasonable. After you become their son-in-law, won't you be bullied by them often?" This elder Xue is the groom The second uncle, the reason why he was asked to come to greet the relatives was because he was usually considered a relatively powerful figure, and many people in the village were still afraid of him.

The groom, Xue Boming, tugged at his sleeves, and begged in a low voice: "Second uncle, the Buddha said that peace is the most important thing in everything, and those who can endure will be satisfied in everything; those who are kind and angry will always go to hell. What's more, when we come to welcome our relatives, You should have brought a welcome gift. At that time, your parents asked if you wanted to bring it, but you said you didn’t need it. Now it’s all right, something happened.”

Second Uncle Xue got angry, "You kid, do you blame me for being troublesome? Well, you can figure it out for yourself, and don't come to me if you have something to do in the future! When you encounter troubles, just recite your Buddha!" ​​He snorted angrily after speaking. He flicked his sleeves and left.

"Second Uncle! Second Uncle, I didn't mean that..." Xue Boming nervously followed behind him, but Second Uncle Xue just ignored him and disappeared after a while.

The rest of the people who came to greet the bride were young people, they didn't dare to say anything, they all looked at Xue Boming.

Xue Boming scratched his head, feeling a bit at a loss.He knew that he only had [-] Wen on his body, and a wedding ceremony usually required at least [-] Wen, which was still far behind.He had no choice but to lick his face and ask them to borrow money, "You... If you have money with you, please lend it to me first, and I will pay you back as soon as I get home."

Seeing that Uncle Xue had left, the people who came together to greet the relatives saw Xue Boming begging them for help, but they were too embarrassed to refuse, so they had to donate their pockets one after another.

Xue Boming put the eighty Wen money into a purse, came to Father Lin and Li Xinghua with an embarrassed face, clasped his hands together, and said incoherently: "...Father...mother, it's... I... I'm the son-in-law. Zhou, I hope you will forgive me. I can only scrape together [-] Wen for now, and I will add another [-] to bring back when I go back and forth in the future..."

Before he could say anything, Li Xinghua teased: "You group of talents made up [-] Wen? That's really good!"

Seeing that his son-in-law had admitted his mistake, Father Lin also said that he would have to make up twenty more at that time, and felt that there was no need to embarrass him any more. Could it be that he really didn't want to marry his daughter? "His mother, forget it. Eighty Wen is only eighty Wen. It seems that they can't come up with another one."

Li Xinghua took the purse with a sullen face, "Okay, it's cheap for you kid."

When Yingniang heard that the matter seemed to have been resolved, she also breathed a sigh of relief, as long as there was no fight.

Xi Po had been watching the fun just now, now that the matter had calmed down, she came to Father Lin and said, "It's almost time, it's time for Yingniang to leave the boudoir."

Father Lin nodded. At this time, a woman and a big girl walked out from the welcoming team. They were bridesmaids brought by Xue's family.According to the custom here, the bridesmaids are all invited by the man.

The two bridesmaids followed Xi Po into Ying Niang's room.Xi Po smiled and said: "The auspicious time has come, the bride is out of the pavilion!"

In this way, Yingniang was helped out of the room by the two bridesmaids.According to common sense, the mother and daughter Li Xinghua and Yingniang would cry at this time.Because mothers are reluctant to part with their daughters, and daughters are reluctant to leave their parents.

But neither of them, a mother and daughter, could cry.Holding the purse in her hand, Li Xinghua wondered in her heart, besides saving some of the money for Zhuzi to get married in the future, should she spend some money to buy a few chicks?When the chickens grow up, they can not only lay eggs, but also sell them for money.An egg can be sold for one penny, and a catty of chicken can be sold for seven pennies. Well, I will go buy chicks tomorrow.

It is even more impossible for Yingniang to cry.Why is she crying for parents who don't love her like this.She even felt that she was something that her parents used her to exchange for the one hundred Wen.

If you don't pay, this item cannot be sold to you.If Xue's family doesn't give you the hundred Wen, my daughter won't give it to you.Listen, these two things look like one thing together!Saying that she was sold out is really not wronging her parents.

It's just that the daughter is leaving, and parents always have to say a few words to make sense of it.

Li Xinghua finally stuffed her purse into her pocket, and came to Yingniang, "Yingniang, I'm someone who has experienced it, and knows how to be a good new wife. There is no other trick, just eat less and work more."

Ying Niang nodded in response.Eat less and work more?This idea is really... absolute.

Father Lin also instructed: "You still have to listen to your in-laws. Whether they are right or wrong, just listen to them, but don't talk back. Even if they beat and scold you, you have to endure it."

God, this is not getting married. They make it sound like I'm going to be a doormat.Thinking that there are many little daughter-in-laws who have been pissed off since ancient times, she is really a little uneasy.Although she felt that the groom was quite reliable just now, she couldn't stop him from turning towards his parents.

Xue Boming has been standing by the side, but he dare not look at Yingniang at all.He just glanced at Yingniang's red wedding dress, and immediately turned his eyes to other places, his face flushed, and he looked very nervous, much more nervous than the bride.

Yingniang was covered with a red hijab, so she couldn't see anyone, only everyone's shoes, and naturally she couldn't see the groom's nervous and shy expression.

A monotonous sound of firecrackers sounded, and it was time to set off.The dowry was pitifully small. Apart from the bridesmaids, there were a total of twelve people who came to welcome the bride. Even if each of them carried one thing for the dowry, four of them would be empty-handed.

Yingniang thought that she should be helped into the big red sedan chair at this time, but she seemed to have no intention of stopping as she walked.Shouldn't the sedan chair be parked at the door?
She looked at the road under her feet. She had already reached the main road, and she was still being supported to move forward.

She couldn't help it anymore, and asked, "Where is the wedding sedan, hasn't it arrived yet?"

The two bridesmaids were taken aback.One of them explained with a smile: "You mean the kind of big sedan chair that is carried? Rich people only carry the wedding sedan chair when they get married. Girls in our poor villages can't enjoy this kind of blessing when they get married. Xuejia Village It’s only twelve miles away from here, and we can definitely walk there before dark.”

Twelve miles to walk?Sakura's heart skipped a beat.Thinking that I had accidentally exposed my ignorance about this place just now, I didn't dare to say anything more.

In ancient times, it was so common for a bride to get married and sit in a big sedan chair to watch on TV, but she couldn't enjoy it.

Xue Boming had been walking in front just now, quite far away from her.He heard Yingniang seem to say something, but he couldn't catch what he said.When he turned around and saw the bridesmaid explaining this, he understood the meaning of Yingniang's words just now.

Could it be that this Yingniang thinks he failed to carry the wedding sedan chair to pick her up?He didn't know what it was like, it was quite bitter.
