Yue Zhongyao stayed in Qingchuan City for three days before returning to the village.
No one knew what he was doing in the city before.
But as soon as he returned, Yue's house became chaotic again.
"Since my parents have ordered a matchmaker, no one can interfere with your sister's marriage unless I agree to it! Why are you so anxious to send your sister out?"
Mrs. Wu pointed at Yue Zhongyao and scolded him with his feet jumping.
She originally thought that her son was going to the city to beg for mercy and ask for a job back. Little did she know that he was actually going to attend to Yue Xiaoman's marriage.
The old man was smoking a hookah, his body hunched, his elbows holding the hookah rod resting on his bent knees, and he was silent.
Yue Er and Yue Si were also caught off guard.
These brothers actually went to the city to find a matchmaker for their girl?
Sun and Yu were watching the fun leisurely.
The two sisters-in-law have always been of a nature that seeks advantages and avoids disadvantages. They will never let go of the advantages they have, for fear of getting too little. Once there is trouble, they will run away and watch the fun.
How dare they interfere in this sister-in-law's marriage?
If Mrs. Wu knew about it, she wouldn't think they were playing some conspiracy. Besides, Yue Xiaoman's marriage had been talked about for several years. Mrs. Wu had taken charge of it all and didn't allow others to interfere. She was just afraid that others would ruin her.
thing.
And Yue Laosan quietly ran to the city and threw three candidates to her when he came back. With Wu's temperament of having a hand in everything, how could she accept it so smoothly?
Even if he is her own son, she will not allow others to challenge her status and authority.
Yue Zhongyao acted vigorously and resolutely this time.
Yue Xiaoman has been delayed to this age. He will be eighteen soon. People in the village who are the same age as her have already married and given birth to children. The little daughter-in-law who is the same age as her can give birth to a baby for her father.
Had a drink.
Only her mother is still hanging on the ground.
Who in the village doesn't gossip behind his back?
It is said that the Wu family wants to use this little daughter as a cash cow and is preparing to attract a rich husband-in-law.
Yue Zhongyao was also anxious. The father let his mother handle the younger sister's marriage, but how could her mother be reliable?
The two brothers and their daughters-in-law are also trying to clean up their own troubles. Who cares whether Yue Xiaoman gets married or not.
It's not like they have to pay for the care of their elderly daughter. They can take care of her as long as they want. They wish they could keep her forever, because the two sisters-in-law are just hiding away.
These two sisters-in-law are also new. Others would like to separate their families as early as possible and live in separate lives. They can earn a penny for their own small family, and they can buy and eat whatever they want without having to hide it. But these two people are weird. The opposite is true.
However, it turned out that they had no choice but to separate the family.
Also, there is a capable Yue Laosan in the family, who earns more money than the men in their family, and the son he gave birth to is raised by his parents-in-law. Maybe they would be reluctant to buy two taels of meat and a few pieces of candy for their children.
As the saying goes, you don’t feel bad spending other people’s money.
Yue Zhongyao also knew the temperament of these two brothers and their wives, and also knew that his mother was unreliable. This time he went to the city and not only found matchmakers in the city, but also found several former subordinates who had never been married, and also
I asked my eldest sister, Yue Chunfen, to discuss it together.
In the end, the two decided on three candidates.
Unexpectedly, he had good intentions and ran around. In Wu's heart, she felt that he had other agendas.
"Third brother, tell me the truth. Are you in such a hurry to send your sister away, are you thinking of breaking up the family early so that you and Mr. Qiao can live alone?"
Before Yue Zhongyao could speak, Mrs. Wu became more and more reasonable as she thought about it, and her voice rose a little higher: "I tell you, dream! I raised you up and got you married. But you want to leave your parents after your life is good.
We are single! Let me tell you, you want to separate our family. Unless your father and I die!"
Yue Zhongyao frowned tightly and looked at Wu steadily.
"Mom, I really want to separate the family. But I have never thought about forcing you to marry Xiao Man. Mom, do you know how old Xiao Man is this year? Mom, how long do you want to keep Xiao Man? Mom, you haven't heard the news in the village.
Gossip?"
Wu frowned: "Gossip, what kind of gossip? What kind of gossip will happen if I keep my daughter for two more years? Besides, I don't want to keep Xiaoman for the rest of my life. Isn't this because I haven't found the right one?"
Just after he finished speaking, he thought of something and breathed fire at Yue Zhongyao again: "If it weren't for you, if it weren't for that guy named Qiao, would you have skipped your errand and run home to dig dirt? If it weren't for your errand being lost, you would
Girl, haven’t you found a suitable family yet?”
Wu's scolding became more and more vigorous, and she continued to scold him for a long time without breathing. His posture was as if he had been fed a few hundred-year-old ginseng.
"Mom, I told you, if you only come to beg Xiao Man because of my job, we are not rare for such a family. In the future, Xiao Man will not be able to get anything good even if he gets married. It is better to find someone who is a good match.
It’s good to be able to live a good life.”
"Fart! Is there anyone in a wealthy family who can't live a good life? As long as you work steadily, how can anyone do anything bad to Xiaoman? Xiaoman gave birth to a son in the past six months and a year after getting married, and has established a foothold in her husband's family.
How dare you show your face to Xiaoman!"
Wu still felt unhappy with herself.
Her youngest daughter still can't find a suitable family, and it's all because of Yue Laosan.
If you don't do any good errands, you have to think about that troublemaker, quit your job and go home to dig for food in the fields!
Is the food in that field so easy to dig?
How many people have been digging for a year, but they may not even be able to wrap their bellies.
If you don't have to pay good tolerance, the harvest will be guaranteed despite droughts and floods, and you won't be caught in the wind or rain, you can easily get three taels of silver. After excluding taxes on the few acres of land at home, the family can eat and drink flowers, and there will be no more than three taels left at the end of the year.
silver?
Yue Zhongyao listened quietly to Mrs. Wu scolding his mother, feeling more and more that he could no longer communicate with this mother.
At first, when he just came back from the battlefield, he felt that his mother was very kind to him. He was lucky to be alive to see his mother. Later, he went to the city to work as a police officer. When he came home every ten days, his mother also greeted him with greetings.
, making him feel that his days at home go by so fast.
Since when did you stop talking to his mother?
Yue Zhongyao turned to look at Lao Yuetou.
Feeling Yue Zhongyao's gaze, Lao Yuetou took a few puffs of water pipe. Then he tapped the water pipe rod on the leg of the chair.
Then he looked at Yue Zhongyao and said, "San'er, which three families are you talking about? Who are the other people? Your eldest sister has also seen them?"
Yue Zhongyao nodded.
Said: "I looked for my former colleagues and the matchmakers in the city. Later, I visited several companies with you, and finally settled on these three. My eldest sister and I carefully selected them, and we all looked at them.
After that, everyone can live a good life. These three families are all good, but in the end it is up to the parents to decide."
Lao Yue nodded.
Wu said from the side: "What kind of family can he find?"
The old man glanced at Wu and said: "You can! You can! You have been searching for several years and you still haven't found a suitable family for Xiao Man! You have delayed Xiao Man until now! I wonder what people think of her! They still think of us.
There is something wrong with our daughter that prevents her from getting married!"
Yue Xiaoman, who was eavesdropping on tiptoes outside the main room, lowered his head with a gloomy look on his face.
Although she doesn't go out often, she can occasionally hear a few gossips, either her mother wants to keep her to catch a rich husband, or she says she has some hidden illness or that she is high-spirited...
She is eighteen years old this year.
The sisters she was friends with were all married. When they returned home during the Chinese New Year, their husband-in-law was on the left and the baby was on the right. They all asked her if the good times were near. But she could only pretend to be shy.
She heard her father's voice in the hall again...
"Third brother, don't listen to your mother, tell me who those three families are."
In the hall, Mrs. Wu was still waiting to speak, but she had to stop talking temporarily after being shouted at by the old Yue-tou.
Humph, she would like to hear what kind of good family Yue Laosan can find. But don't let her know that Qiao's idea is behind it, otherwise, she will be good-looking!
Yue Zhongyao glanced at Mrs. Wu and Lao Yue, and then said: "There is a family named Gu, who was my old subordinate. Now he is a policeman in the yamen, longer than when I entered the yamen. My family is like ours
Almost, grandma is gone, he has parents, and brothers and sisters. He is the youngest, his brothers and sisters are all married, and the three brothers have their own families, and they have also separated and lived in separate families.
His parents lived with his eldest brother. Although the family was larger, they were all separated. If Xiao Manyu got married, he didn't have to go back to the village. He could just rent a small yard in the city like his eldest sister and do whatever he wanted. He is now
I also have a monthly salary of one tael and some other filial piety. It will not be a problem to support Xiaoman."
"The other family is the one that the eldest sister is interested in. It is a family next door to her, with the surname Liu. The family is simple, with only parents and one girl. He works as a clerk in a grain store. He is honest, hard-working and studious. He is very good.
With the appreciation of the shopkeeper, it won't be long before he will be promoted to the position of steward, and I'm afraid the salary will be even higher by then. If Xiaoman marries into this family, he won't have to go to the countryside to dig for food."
"The third family is the wife and nephew of a shopkeeper I know. They live in the suburbs of Qingchuan City, and their surname is Ding. There are several brothers in the family, some married and some unmarried. Although there are many people, the family is well-off, with twenty or thirty brothers.
With acres of high-quality paddy fields, it will not be difficult for our families to survive in the future."
The old man listened quietly and started smoking a hookah again.
All three of these families sound like very suitable candidates.
Just like their Yemeni family, they are both honest and ordinary people. Although they are not rich and powerful, it sounds like they will not let their daughter endure hardship.
Yue Lao Er and Yue Lao Si also listened carefully.
No matter which one of these three families makes a promise to the younger sister, the younger sister will not feel wronged.
The first two married in Qingchuan City, so they didn't have to dig in the fields for food. Although they didn't have a house in the city and would have to rent a yard in the future, the men were all capable and would definitely get better and better in the future.
Although the other family has to dig food in the fields like theirs, they have dozens of acres of high-quality paddy fields, which are equally divided among the families. The couple can live a good life with the paddy fields they receive.
After listening to this, Mr. Sun and Mr. Yu both felt that Yue Xiaoman was very lucky. Even after being dragged into an old girl, he still has such a good market. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation, monthly vote, your
Support is my biggest motivation.)
ps: I slept all morning and the alarm went off to no avail. I took advantage of the good weather and washed and dried the quilt. I also went to the supermarket to buy food for the next week. This is the first update, and there will be more to come. I will try my best to make up for it.
