Yang Liulang never thought that he would get married and take a wife one day, but he never expected that he would actually get married thirty years ago.
The three old people gathered together and in less than ten minutes, they picked out a few days. The final choice still rested with the children.
"Hong Ling wants to go out with her friends after the Chinese New Year. Let her choose the day by herself."
"If you go out, just go out. We can still hold on now. It is also very good for the children to have the opportunity to go out and broaden their horizons.
At that time, even if you wanted to go out, you wouldn’t dare to go out. Today’s society is better.”
Zeng Yixin, who brought the tea, already knew that the two elders had chosen a date, so he returned to the kitchen and said, "Sister, you have chosen a wedding day."
"So fast?"
Zeng Yixin nodded.
Zeng Hongling was still busy with the work at hand. She was almost ready and just had to wait for a while to cook.
"Sister, are you okay?"
"What can happen? Since you agree, let's just get married?"
"Then do you still want to go to the north with Su Yuanyuan?"
"Go, Yuanyuan will definitely go to the beach on July 15th. I still have three years, so I will definitely follow her there.
And you also have time, otherwise you should go back to the capital, I think you are very happy there."
"talk later."
The two siblings started working on the dishes. At half past eleven, the food was served.
"I have also eaten northern dishes and seafood. When I asked about it and smelled it, I knew that Hongling was very good."
"As long as Uncle Yang likes it. I'll call my friend."
"No need to call, I'm coming here smelling the fragrance."
Su Yuanyuan and Yang Jiahui got to know each other, and they all sat down to eat.
Yang Jiahui already knew the identity of this woman, but he really couldn't tell that such a young and beautiful girl could be so powerful.
The meal was spent in praise. After the meal, we sat down to drink tea.
Su Yuanyuan knew that they had something to talk about, so she said so and left.
Zeng Hongling had already tidied up the kitchen and was called over by Zeng Yixin. She sat down politely.
"Hong Ling, how is your sixth brother? You two have been destined to each other since childhood."
As a girl, Zeng Hongling just had to lower her head and pretend to be shy. The elders on both sides talked to themselves, and after asking questions, they laughed with the two Zeng family members.
Zeng Yixin looked at his sister, then at Yang Liulang who looked calm next to him, and shook his head. Suddenly, he felt that these two people were really a good match.
"Hongling, look, this is the day we have chosen, you pick one.
Originally, I thought about risking my life and giving you two a big deal, but the current situation is indeed that there are a lot of people staring at our two families. So I can only feel wronged to you, but don’t worry, girl. Uncle Yang will definitely do something else.
I’ll compensate you for that.”
"Uncle Yang, it doesn't matter. No matter what age we are now, we can't make a fuss about it. Marriage is a matter between the two of us. I also want to keep it simple."
"What a good boy. Uncle Yang knows what to do."
Zeng Hongling took the paper, and Yang Liulang came over at this time. The two of them watched the days chosen by the three old people together.
There are two days in the year above, none in the first month, two days in February, and the rest is one day in May and one day in August. The rest are gone.
"Uncle Yang, I actually don't trust my grandfather and father when I come back this time. I still have to go when I come back to see them.
My grandfather and father felt sorry for Yixin and us. They wanted us to go out and have a look, so they gave us five years.
There are still three years left, and I want to go out and travel around in these three years."
"That's a good thing. It's a good time for you at this age. You can go see the outside world. Your father and we didn't have the courage at that time.
I just thought that I would give your sixth brother a holiday and let him go out with you to have a look. It would be good for you two as a couple."
Zeng Hongling twitched her lips and thought to herself, why is this father so open-minded? Yang Liulang is responsible for the sale of all the Yang family's books, calligraphy and paintings. If he says he has a holiday, he will take a holiday, and if he goes with him, it will be at least three days.
years of time.
"Then I don't know which day is better. It's up to me and you to discuss it. I can do whatever I want."
"Good boy, such a good boy. It is a great virtue that we, the sixth child, can find a wife like you.
Uncle Zeng, Zhixuan, what do you think of the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month? There is still more than a month to prepare."
Zeng Yaozu laughed loudly, "Okay, that's it for this day. We don't have anything prepared. We won't treat guests to dinner. We will just give out more candies to the neighbors."
"Okay, but I will only give Hongling more things. I will go back and prepare them. The day after tomorrow on the sixth day of the lunar month, even if we don't do it, our two families will have a meal together that day."
What Yang Jiahui means is that the day after tomorrow is equivalent to an engagement.
"Okay, the young couple is just getting along, so we can help each other more."
Zeng Yaozu meant that Zeng Hongling’s dowry would not be small.
At this time, there was no chance for the two young people to talk, so they just listened.
Next, the principals of the two families began to discuss. After all, this marriage is really not a trivial matter.
The houses are the same three that Yang Liulang lives in now, and they will be given two shops. Of course, Yang Jiahui will also give Zeng Hongling a separate room as compensation for her.
The rest is gold and silver. Although this is not in circulation now, the old aristocratic families still value it.
The Yang family gave them one hundred taels of gold, two hundred taels of silver, and two thousand yuan. The rest was jade and gold jewelry. The ornaments and furniture were all ordered.
"The nine brothers are all the same. I will give them two to five thousand yuan from my private room."
"Jiahui, it's really a lot. You have a lot of family, but don't make it too difficult for you."
"It's okay, it's okay. Who made me like Hongling?"
Nowadays, bicycles, radios, etc. that are popular now are all converted into money. After all, they won't be able to use them after they get married. Give them the money to buy them by themselves later.
The dowry given by the Zeng family was similar to the betrothal gift, but the cash was not that much. Zeng Yaozu compensated her with one hundred taels of gold. This makes sense.
The discussion lasted until about five o'clock in the afternoon. Zeng Hongling had already gone to bake meat cakes, and the Yang family and his son stayed to eat.
This time Su Yuanyuan came to help in the kitchen, and Zeng Yixin was responsible for lighting the fire.
Boiled sea rice soup, meatloaf, and some small cold dishes.
"Hong Ling, you are already a blockbuster without making a sound. Good guy, you will be someone else's in more than a month."
"I am still Zeng Hongling. And both families agree that we can go out for three years." Zeng Hongling said proudly.
