Chapter 272: Transformation
Several children in the family were so happy when they saw their grandparents coming back. Jiang Guoguang and his wife gave birth to another child, and now they are one year old. They are now both children.
Jiang Yu teased the little guy sitting on Qi Shuangshuang's legs and smiled and said, "Does the third sister-in-law still have a child?"
"What are you going to have? Just two." Qi Shuangshuang held back his laughter, "I didn't want to have a child before, but now the conditions are better, and the older one has gone to kindergarten. Guoguang said that a child is lonely and a daughter will give birth to another one. Who knows that he is actually a kid?"
"It's good, boy, I can still protect my sister when I grow up."
Qi Shuangshuang leaned into her ear and whispered: "Actually, I hope I am still a daughter. You don't know. Now in our Hexi Village, the daughter is so popular. There are two sisters in the village who are so promising. Who dares to say that their daughter is a money-losing guy?"
Is it because of myself and my elder sister? Jiang Yu doesn’t agree?
But if this allows girls to have a certain status at home, it is indeed a good thing.
"How is the fourth girl from the Tian family?"
"You said that child? But it appeared. I was admitted to the No. 1 Middle School in the county this year and the first place was admitted. Now the aunt of the Tian family is not good to this daughter, but the boy of the Tian family is not promising. After elementary school, he said he would not go anywhere. Now he went to the county to work and often had no money to spend to go home. The three sisters above have all got married. Aunt Tian family asked for a lot of bride money from others, and they all saved it for their son to get married."
Jiang Yu understands this situation very well.
After all, it is not only now, but even in twenty years, this kind of situation of using the daughter's bride price to marry a son is not uncommon.
Jiang Yu couldn't express his opinion on the amount of the bride price.
But she believes that you should take at least half of the bride gifts from the southern family to your daughter, otherwise it is conceivable how sad your daughter will have to go to her husband's house.
Besides, if you do this, it is also an indirect relationship between children in the inner world.
Unless it is the real Virgin attribute, no one who is a daughter will feel unhappy.
"Uncle Hanlin's daughter was also admitted to the county No. 1 Middle School with high scores two years ago. Aunt Xiuqin is very concerned about Xiao Cui."
"Aunt Xiuqin and Uncle Hanlin are not getting well yet?"
"Although I haven't had much quarrels in the past few years, I'm not as good as before. You know, Uncle Hanlin, who loves Xiao Cui, but compared to his son, Xiao Cui still has to stand aside. In addition, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is not very good. Xiao Cui has spent a lot of money on studying these years, and sometimes it makes a lot of trouble."
"Isn't Xiao Cui very promising in studying? Why are there any contradictions?"
Qi Shuangshuang smiled and said, "You are the idea of scholars. You can see it easily. But many people in our village don't even know each other's words in their lives. The old lady thinks that Xiao Cui is a girl and will get married sooner or later. That's someone else's family. It's useless to study so much. If it weren't for Aunt Xiuqin's support here, Xiao Cui would probably have been left at home after elementary school. Because of this incident, Aunt Xiuqin made a fuss to divorce Uncle Hanlin. The old lady might have been scared, so she wouldn't do anything too much except muttering."
Jiang Yu can understand a little bit.
It is said that it is a change of view for girls, but it is just a change of view. It cannot be compared with boys.
According to Xiao Cui's current age, she should be in high school, but she will not start the college entrance examination until next year, which is also delayed and has late schooling.
This kind of transformation is not overnight, but at least the people in the village are willing to change now, which is enough.
Regarding the matter of the ancestral hall in the village, every household of the Jiang family took out a few dollars, and of course, there would be no more.
The rest is Jiang Yan and Jiang Yu, sisters, and of course there is one share of Jiang Chuan, and he must have one share. Jiang Chuan is still a student now, so the two sisters will pay this share of money for him and return it to the two sisters after he graduates.
The other money doesn't matter. Sister Jiang Yan never thought of asking her younger brother to pay it back, but she had to pay it back.
"The ancestral hall and your cemetery started together. Originally, you could only erect a monument for Uncle Jiang. Now, according to the wishes of the three of you, you also erect a tombstone for your parents."
It’s not that Jiang Han and his wife are not worthy of respect, but the rules here.
Only the elders at home can erect monuments, but the younger generations below cannot erect, but the distance from the elders' graves is not too far, and it is basically around this tombstone.
This is what Jiang Yu strongly requested, and Jiang Changhai did not refuse. The other child was willing, but they couldn't say anything more.
That night, everyone gathered here and cooked three large tables of meals. The boys and girls were separated, making them lively and noisy.
There are a lot of chicken, duck, fish and meat on the table, and Xiuxiu also gave some money. After all, the conditions of the three brothers' families are not as good as hers. Other places must be clearly distinguished. She and Lin Xie will not care about this kind of occasion.
The couple lived far away, and Lin Xie had no brothers and sisters, so after marrying Xiuxiu, he had three more brother-in-law, so he naturally had to get along well.
Usually, you can't meet once a year or two, and you have to be generous when you should be generous. This kind of relationship can't be bought for 180 yuan.
The main reason is that the three brothers really love Xiuxiu, otherwise Lin Xie would not be as gentle as the surface, and he is very protective of his shortcomings in his bones.
The couple also decided to buy a bicycle for each of their three brothers before leaving.
The four-wheeled bikes are almost impossible to see here, and the main means of transportation is still bicycles, so the couple is willing to do their best.
The main reason is that Jiang Changhai and his wife have been taking care of their family in the capital in recent years. The two of them also want to express their gratitude so that Jiang Changhai and his wife can rest assured.
Although the conditions of each family are different, their feelings will not change.
This is also something parents like to see.
The next day, the village began to get busy.
The young village party secretary sat in the office of the courtyard, took the money from the Jiang clan, and then recorded it on a large red paper one by one. This was also for openness and transparency, so that the people in the clan knew that the money was really used to build the ancestral hall, and it was not secretly swallowed by someone.
The accounts after the construction of the ancestral hall will naturally be made public. What they only have to take is a small head, and the majority of the head is the three Jiang siblings.
Young people may not care about the ancestral hall in the village, but older people attach great importance to it.
It was destroyed once many years ago. Although it was simply repaired afterwards, it was inevitable that it would be damaged multiple times during heavy rains and snowstorms. But what are the solutions? Now no one's family is rich and they are all for their children to study.
Now, the Jiang siblings are willing to pay money to help repair it, and they don’t care about these three or two dollars.
The money that all the Jiang clan members gathered was less than 200 yuan, and it would cost at least a thousand yuan to repair a ancestral hall.
