Farmer's Struggle

Chapter 125
After Ju Changfu's small store turned yellow, he began to raise cattle and enclose land.He didn't raise more cattle, so he raised three, and he didn't dare to acquire more land, for fear that he wouldn't be able to grow them.

At the end of the year, the couple settled accounts, and the income was really too little, and they had to save for several years to build a bigger house.

So after winter, they ran to several houses in a row and went to other villages to rent a lot of land. They will be busy after spring next year.

It is very important to hire a labor force for farming, and one more labor force in the family can do a lot of things.When Ju Changfu and Bai Guirong combined, it would be better to marry the daughter-in-law into the family before the spring planting. Li Fengjiao is not only dexterous, but she can also do it. If she is married, it will be an extra labor for the family.

On behalf of the Ju family, Ju Wenlin and Cai Meiyu went to Xishantun to talk to the Li family about this matter, and the Li family was easy to talk to, so they agreed.

The wedding date was set on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, and Cai Meiyu specially asked Goddess Ruan to count a good day, saying that the married couple would be able to have a son with He Meimei early.

At dinner at night, when talking about Ju Tangcheng's marriage, Yin Kaixuan was as excited as if he was the one who was going to get married. He counted the days until the eighth day, and asked Qiao Jue to remind him to set an alarm clock the first day. Get up early and sneak into the groom's team to go to the woman's house to pick up the bride.

Originally, Ju Ling and Ju Jing were not interested in the marriage next door at all, but after being nagged by him, they also looked forward to it.

It is more and more convenient to have a banquet in a restaurant in the countryside, but the wedding process is getting simpler and simpler, and it is less and less lively and interesting than before.

When Ju Ling was young, when someone got married in the village, it was a big event that would alarm the whole village.Early in the morning, the bridegroom and best man drive a tractor to the woman's house with a group of people. The relatives' children on the woman's side will block the door and ask for red envelopes, and they don't need to give too much. Sprinkle a few handfuls of sugar and give them a few cents to clear the door. The child was dismissed, and then came in to see the woman's parents and changed their name to parents.

After seeing someone, you have to look for the bride's shoes. This is called "hiding shoes". It is very likely that you can't find them. At this time, you have to give red envelopes to the bridesmaids, and the bridesmaids will tell where the bride's shoes are hidden.

When the bride leaves her natal family, her natal mother will pour a basin of water on the driving wheels, which means that the water thrown by the married girl will become a member of the man's family in the future.There will be relatives in the woman's family to send the bride off, and the bride's natal brother has a special task-pressing the car, with red envelopes.

When the newcomer comes to the man's house, the bride will bring flowers to the old woman, and the old woman will also give red envelopes.After the bride enters the door, everyone follows the excitement for a while, taking photos and so on. It's almost time to have a banquet, and the bride and groom stand next to the table to toast and talk auspicious words.

In the evening, people who have a good relationship with the groom will come over, commonly known as the bridal chamber, and everyone will get together to play some small games.If the groom speaks weight among his friends, he can send these people away earlier and rest with his new wife earlier. If his words don’t matter, then let these people toss about them. When they have enough trouble, they can leave.

If Ju Changfu wants to hold a wedding for Ju Tangcheng according to the old custom, it might be really lively!
The wedding is after the new year, and the most important thing in front of you is the Chinese New Year.

The Ju family had all the New Year’s goods ready. After eating in the morning of the New Year’s Eve, Zhang Yongmei boiled a big spoonful of paste, Ju Jing and Ju Ling wiped the paste, and Yin Kaixuan and Qiao Jue posted couplets going in and out.

There is no TV or cable at home, so I can only go to restaurants to watch the Spring Festival Gala.

Even if you stay at home, you have to make dumplings and you won’t sleep until eleven or twelve o’clock, so it’s better for everyone to watch the Spring Festival Gala while making dumplings in a restaurant.

Let's all go, so naturally the crazy grandma can't be left behind.

When making dumplings and watching the Spring Festival Gala, the crazy grandma just took a small piece of dough from one side and kneaded it without making trouble.

Those who are ignorant do not make trouble, but those who are sensible make trouble.

If Yin Kaixuan didn't help well, he kept rubbing his white-stained hands on Ju Jing and Ju Ling's face until the last few people all had their faces covered, which was ridiculous.

This year's Spring Festival Gala was also quite lively. Zhao Benshan, Fan Wei, Gao Xiumin's simple sketches were quite interesting, and Bo Lin and Zhuo Lin's cross talk was also very fresh and interesting. Everyone couldn't help but follow the silly music when they watched it, and they didn't know it was funny. The show is still alive and well.

When the clock strikes zero o'clock, the Lunar Year of the Jiashen Monkey arrives as scheduled.

Ju Wenqi took out a thousand-shot firecracker from a basket near the wall, Yin Kaixuan and Qiao Jue happily followed out to set off the firecrackers, Ju Jing and Ju Ling watched grandma and helped Zhang Yongmei cook dumplings.

The sound of firecrackers in the village came one after another, and the crackling sound outside could still be heard after the Ju family's firecrackers were set off.

Accompanied by the lively background sound, the hot sauerkraut and pork dumplings are served on the table.

Ju Ling held a stack of small plates and put one in front of each person, and mixed the ingredients for dipping the dumplings by herself.

Zhang Yongmei eats dumplings without dipping anything, saying that only in this way can she enjoy the original taste of dumplings.Ju Ling eats dumplings only dipped in vinegar, even those filled with sauerkraut, she likes the sour taste.Although Ju Jing and Ju Wenqi are not easy to deal with when they talk, their eating habits are quite similar. They have to dip the dumplings in soy sauce and vinegar with chili noodles.

Not long after eating, Ju Jing's cell phone rang, and it was Ju Min calling.

She celebrated the New Year in Lin Dezhi's hometown, and it was quite lively there.

Lin Dezhi and his family got together with dozens of people. Although they didn't make dumplings to watch the Spring Festival Gala, they didn't sleep at this time, and the background sound of the phone was very noisy.

Ju Jing opened the release, and the Ju family chatted with Ju Min while eating.

What Ju Wenqi and his wife are most concerned about is whether Ju Min is used to being there.I heard that there is no kang in the winter and you don’t eat dumplings during the New Year, but it makes the couple feel distressed enough, and they automatically make up the appearance of the big girl who is freezing outside.

The phone call didn't last long, and Ju Min hung up on the grounds that the Lin family was too noisy. Ju Wenqi and his wife didn't think it was a problem, but Ju Jing and Ju Ling were keenly aware that their eldest sister was not in the right mood.

Whether it's because of missing relatives during the festive season or something else, they have to figure it out.

After dinner, go home and go to bed on Kang Kang.

In the hut, after Zhang Yongmei and grandma fell asleep, Ju Ling sneaked into Ju Jing's bed, and the two of them hid in the bed and sent a message to Ju Min, asking her if something happened there.

Ju Min said no, nothing happened, it was just that the family was eating dumplings in a lively manner, and she felt a little uncomfortable because she couldn't eat them.

This also made sense, neither Ju Jing nor Ju Ling thought much about it.

Ju Min lied.

She is not greedy for the dumplings at home, she is feeling uncomfortable.

On February 26, she returned to her hometown with Lin Dezhi and met Lin Dezhi brothers, sisters and other family members. On the surface, everyone was happy and happy, but Ju Min was still very uncomfortable with some differences in habits.

The humidity here is different from that in the north, so it will be very uncomfortable if you don't take a bath for a day.You have to change your clothes when you take a shower, and someone has to wash them when you change them, so who will wash these clothes?

　Thank you for your support, thank you for subscribing and voting, thank you.Today is Lantern Festival?I am confused at home, so I wish all my friends a happy Lantern Festival and good health. I hope that the epidemic will pass soon and everyone can return to normal life.
