Xu's mother let Xu Damao go after asking some key questions.
The next day, after Xu Damao told his uncle about asking for leave, he set off towards the place where Qin Jingru lived. When he came to the place where Qin Jingru lived, he saw that Qin Jingru had prepared everything. Xu Damao also found that he had nothing.
Buy it, after all, I am going to my father-in-law’s house. Although it is not true, I still have to be polite.
"Jingru, what did you say I would bring with me? Let's go to the supply and marketing cooperative later to buy some."
"Although my uncle is fake, we are not on errands either." Xu Damao looked at Qin Jingru and said.
Hearing Xu Damao's words, Qin Jingru hurriedly said: "No, no, no, this is enough for me. I don't need to buy anything else, or what should my parents say?"
"You also know that my parents are from rural areas. If they see me bringing too many things back, they will tell me that I will no longer be able to live."
"How can this be done? You don't need to bring anything else, but you must buy some wine and cigarettes." After saying that, Xu Damaojiu took Qin Jingru to the supply and marketing cooperative, bought a few bottles of wine and two cigarettes, and then went to Qin Jingru's house.
Go.
Two hours later, Xu Damao and Qin Jingru finally arrived at Qinjia Village, where Qin Jingru had lived since childhood. When they entered the village, the people in the village started talking a little when they saw Qin Jingru coming back with a strange man. p>
"Jingru, have you brought your partner back?" Aunt Wang said.
"My parents are urging me, so I will bring it back to show them. This will save them from always finding me a blind date," Qin Jingru explained.
"Young man is so handsome." Aunt Wang looked at Xu Damao and praised him.
Speaking of appearance, Xu Damao has undergone earth-shaking changes in the past year. Because he often drinks spring water from Lingquan, and Xu Damao takes Dingyan Pill, although Xu Damao is almost thirty now, he looks like
Like a young man in his early twenties, this also surprised the people in the courtyard for a long time.
After chatting with Aunt Wang for a while, Xu Damao and Qin Jingru finally arrived at Qin Jingru's house. The two small earthen houses looked a little dilapidated. Obviously, the life of Qin Jingru's family was not very good.
Qin's mother was a little happy when she saw her daughter back, but when she saw Xu Damao next to Qin Jingru, she couldn't help but be a little stunned. Originally, she thought Qin Jingru was just lying to them again that she had a partner and was unwilling to come back to the countryside. For this reason, they returned
Qin Jingru found a family and collected all their betrothal gifts, but now, looking at Xu Damao, Qin's mother knew that there was going to be trouble.
You know, the status of the family from whom they received the bride price is not low in the village. If they knew that their daughter had returned with a partner, they wouldn't have destroyed her whole house.
At this time, Qin's mother showed a forced smile and said to Qin Jingru: "Jingru is back, right?"
"Mom, this is my partner, Xu Damao. I've brought it back to see you." Qin Jingru was still leaning on Xu Damao's arm as she spoke, with a happy smile on her face.
Maybe Qin Jingru was a little happy and didn't notice Qin's mother's forced smile, but Xu Damao noticed it and thought that it might not be that simple. Looking at Qin's mother, Xu Damao also said: "Hello, aunt, I am Xu Damao, and this is Qin Jingru.
My partner, I’ve been too busy during this period and haven’t bothered to come see you, so please don’t mind.”
"Come in, come in." Qin's mother also quickly asked Xu Damao to come in and sit down.
"Mom, where is my dad?" After Qin Jingru entered the house, she saw that her father was not there and asked Qin's mother.
"Your dad is out and will be back soon. Jingru, you sit with Xiao Xu first, and I'll prepare some food." After saying that, Qin's mother went to prepare the food.
After a while, Qin's father opened the door and walked in. He was stunned when he saw another stranger at home. Qin Jingru looked at her father's confused eyes and introduced to the side: "Dad, this is my partner Xu Damao, who is here today."
It’s up to you.”
Xu Damao also said quickly from the side: "Hello, uncle!"
"What?" Father Qin obviously found it difficult to accept. He ignored Xu Damao and looked at Qin Jingru on the side to confirm again: "Are you sure?"
Qin Jingru was also a little confused and didn't understand what was wrong with her father, but she still replied: "Yes, Dad, what's wrong?"
"Hey!" Qin's father sighed deeply, not daring to look at his daughter, and whispered: "Didn't your cousin say you didn't have a partner a month ago? Why did you find one so soon?
Tell me what kind of thing I did."
After a moment of silence, Qin's father explained: "I went to your cousin's house a month ago, and your cousin just came back. I asked if you had a partner, and she said you didn't. I didn't think you were too old.
, we can’t keep doing this, just telling you a partner, accepting the bride price, and just planning on you coming back to get married this time.”
"Dad, how could you do this?" After hearing Qin's father's words, Qin Jingru obviously couldn't accept it, and asked Qin's father loudly.
Qin's mother was standing aside at some point, with a worried look on her face, and she didn't know what to do?
Qin's father himself also blamed himself a little. Faced with his daughter's questions, Qin's father didn't know how to answer.
As an honest farmer, Qin's father also knew that he might feel sorry for his daughter, but he had already accepted the bride price, and now there was really nothing he could do about it. Qin's father sat there silently, facing his daughter's helplessness.
He looked a little overwhelmed when he cried.
Seeing this, Xu Damao knew it was time for him to appear.
"Ahem~"
Hearing Xu Damao's cough, Qin Jingru's family noticed Xu Damao. Obviously, they were attracted by Qin's father's words just now and ignored Xu Damao's existence.
Qin Jingru also thought of Xu Damao at this time, and immediately ran over and hugged Xu Damao in tears, as if Xu Damao's arms could give him a sense of security.
"Brother Damao, you have to help me, I don't want this." Qin Jingru looked at Xu Damao helplessly and said.
"Okay, calm down first and listen to what your dad has to say." Xu Damao patted Qin Jingru's back and said comfortingly.
After hearing Xu Damao's words, Qin's father also raised his head and glanced at Xu Damao, and said with a wry smile: "A few days ago, the son of the village detachment leader came to propose marriage. I thought it wouldn't be a problem for Jingru to keep going like this, so I agreed and paid the bride price.
All collected."
"Dad, it's not like you don't know that the detachment leader's son idles around all day long and often plays hooligan in the village. If you agree to such a person, aren't you pushing your daughter into a pit of fire?" When the family heard this,
The person she arranged was the son of the detachment leader, Qin Jingru said with some disappointment.
