Xu Qiang never expected that the first gift waiting for him after graduating from college would be this.
He just felt confused and didn't react for a long time.
"I have to think about it," he told his dad.
Then I went to Qingping School alone and stood under the dormitory building.
It was someone from the dormitory who came out to fetch water who came to tell Qing Ning: "Your boyfriend is downstairs."
Qingping was stunned for a moment and glanced at her phone. It was not turned off. Why didn't she say anything when she came? She hurriedly ran down and saw her standing there, motionless.
She was extremely nervous: "What's going on?"
When someone comes to see me abnormally, the first thing I feel is that he wants to break up.
She felt uncomfortable in her heart and her nose became sore. Without any warning, she found it difficult to accept it for a while.
Xu Qiang looked at Qingping: "Come for a walk with me." he said.
Something must have happened.
Qingping hummed and took him walking around the campus. It was too hot to go to the playground, so he walked slowly on the green path. When he encountered an empty chair, Xu Qiang sat over it and pulled Qingping to sit too.
, but never let go of her hand, holding it tighter and tighter.
After sitting in silence for half an hour, Xu Qiang said, "Come somewhere with me."
Qingping looked at him, nodded, and did whatever he wanted. Just don't say anything.
But she never expected that Xu Qiang brought him to the hospital. She was shocked: "It's Uncle Xu..."
Xu Qiang shook his head and continued walking until he reached the door of the ward. He glanced in through the glass on the ward, then turned back to Qingping and said: "...my mother."
Mom, this word has not been uttered for a long time.
Qingping said "Oh" and understood everything. He must have felt very uncomfortable and complicated.
She asked: "Aren't you going in?"
Xu Qiang held Qingping's hand hard, as if drawing strength, and said softly: "I... let's go then."
Just deciding to go in and take a look seemed to have exhausted all his energy.
Qingping held him back and pushed the door open first.
The ward was a single room, with a pale-faced, skinny woman lying on the bed.
His withered and yellow hair was scattered on the pillow, and his exposed hands were dry and covered with calluses and black nails. There was an oxygen tube inserted into his nose, and he was not awake.
"Qiangzi, don't run, be careful of falling!"
"Son, what do you want to eat? Mom will cook it for you!"
"My son is so handsome. He will not worry about finding a wife in the future."
…
Every sound and sentence rings in my ears as if it was yesterday.
Those distant, almost dusty past events came to his mind, telling him: she once loved him so much, loved him so much, and was such a pure mother.
He sat next to her and held her hand. Tears welled up in his eyes. He covered them up and wiped them away. He took out the keychain with nail clippers hanging on it.
He grabbed her hand and cut it carefully.
Just like she once held him in her arms and carefully cut his nails with scissors.
Qingping quietly went to the bathroom, brought out a basin of water, and placed the soap next to it.
Xu Qiang carefully helped cut the fingernails, then cut the toenails, and then helped wash hands, wipe faces, and wash feet.
When Qingping saw the woman lying down, tears welled up from the corners of her eyes from time to time, then flowed to her temples, and finally fell into the pillow. She wanted to tell Xu Qiang that she was awake. When the words came to her lips, she still didn't say anything.
The son may not know that the mother has woken up, and the mother has woken up and cried without suppressing a sound. Maybe he wants to keep this moment longer.
She turned around silently and planned to go out.
Xu Qiang raised his head, "Don't leave." He lowered his head and focused on cutting the toenails of the person on the hospital bed, "Tell her to look at you... When I was very young, you asked me what kind of wife I wanted to find... Idle
Tell her to take a look, I just want to find a wife like this..."
Qingping's face turned red immediately. She felt that the person on the hospital bed opened his eyes through a slit and looked at her seriously.
This made her a little cautious, "How about I go for fruit? What do you want to eat?"
She was asking Xu Qiang and also her in the hospital bed.
The woman raised her hand and stretched it towards Qingping.
Qingping hesitated for a moment, stretched out his hand, and was immediately grabbed by the other party.
"...Good girl...Qiangzi...take good care of him..." She choked up as she said this, "My son is very good...he deserves your love for him..."
Pain, this word is actually a bit embarrassing when used between male and female friends.
But Qingping still nodded and looked at Xu Qiang.
Xu Qiang did not raise his head, but she saw him crying.
This time, she walked out silently without him stopping her.
After Qingping went out, he went directly to the doctor. You have to ask the doctor to know what the situation is.
"... It's in the advanced stage... Bone metastasis and lung metastasis have occurred, so surgery is of little significance... All we can do is make the patient suffer less pain..."
Qingping came out of the doctor's office and saw Xu Qiang sitting on the bench at the door of the ward.
She sat down silently and took his tightly clasped hands.
Xu Qiang pursed his lips and finally asked: "How is it?"
Just ask the doctor what he said.
Qingping shook his head and said what the doctor said. This cannot be concealed. Only by knowing the truth can we make the best arrangements, "...it's hard to say how much time there is left. It's ten days and a half, one or two months, half a year. It's hard to say.
."
So, what are you going to do?
Xu Qiang asked Qingping: "Apart from the nutrient solution, the only thing left is pain relief, right?"
Qingping said 'hmm', "The hospital can't do more."
"Stay here for a week first, and then go back to your hometown." Xu Qiang took a deep breath, "My hometown is very particular, don't just leave it outside..."
To die outside is called a violent death.
Such people will not be buried together with the village cemetery after death. They are usually buried in a place called Nook.
Qingping hesitated for a moment, "Do you want to discuss it with Uncle Xu?"
"This matter has nothing to do with him." If you get divorced, stop worrying about it. "I can just make up my mind."
"Then you're in the hospital." Qingping said, "I'll pack a change of clothes and toiletries for you."
I definitely have to live here and take care of him.
Xu Qiang nodded, hesitated and asked, "Can you go back to your hometown with me?"
Their hometowns are not in the same county.
It's summer vacation, and it doesn't involve anything else. "I have to tell my parents."
Xu Qiang slapped his head: "You don't have to say this, I have to."
Qingping didn't know what he was going to say, but he had to leave first to help pack things. As soon as he walked around the corner, he saw a teenage child squatting in the corner. This child was particularly conspicuous, and his clothes were a little out of place. The clothes were small, and
The style looks like a style from more than ten years ago, and the sneakers on my feet are also white sneakers that haven't been seen for several years, with patches.
He squatted alone in the corner, his head buried between his legs.
Perhaps feeling that someone was looking at him, he raised his head and looked at Qingping, then quickly lowered his head.
Qingping felt that this face seemed familiar. He was about to leave before he remembered. How similar was this child's face to Xu Qiang?
She stopped, turned around and walked back. Xu Qiang was holding the phone as if he was talking about something.
Qingping's footsteps slowed down and he heard him say: "...Second uncle...I should have told you and my second aunt in person, but now that the situation is...I can only tell you on the phone...I want Qingning
Agree with me to date Qingping... After she graduates, if you and the second aunt still like me, we will get married..."
She turned her back and leaned against the wall, feeling her heart beating very fast.
There have been many touching proposals for marriage in the past, but none have been more touching than this one.
She had imagined the proposal scene, with flowers, roses, diamond rings, and blessings, but she never thought that he would tell her parents, "I want to date her, please approve it. If you agree, I want to marry her in the future."
Qingping didn't know what his father said on the phone, but he saw Xu Qiang nodding his head. It took him a long time to put down the phone.
He turned around and saw her a little surprised: "Why are you back again?"
She blushed a little and pointed to the end of the corridor: "There is a child squatting there..."
Xu Qiang's expression froze for a moment, yes! If dad is not guarding the hospital, then the hospital must be guarded by someone.
No need to ask, everyone knows it is Sun Jun.
I haven’t seen this younger brother for more than ten years. The last time I saw him, he was still at the age when I was holding him in my arms.
He held Qingping's hand and walked over, and saw a somewhat helpless child standing in the corner.
He must be thirteen.
He looks younger than his actual age, and the clothes he wears are the clothes he wore when he was a child. His clothes are very tight and small, and the hem of his clothes only reaches his belly button.
Sun Jun leaned against the wall with his hands behind his back, rubbing his palms against the wall for a long time before he said in a mosquito humming voice: "Brother... I am Sun Jun..."
Xu Qiang's eyes were complicated, but he still nodded: "What are you doing here? Follow me back to the ward."
Qingping watched the two brothers leave one after another before pressing the elevator. He thought that after he went back to pack his things, he had to go to the wholesale market to buy two changes of clothes for the man named Sun Jun.
I don’t know how that mother got into it. If she can’t buy the good ones, then she can’t buy the bad ones? She doesn’t dress like that.
This is also what Xu Qiang wants to ask.
Especially when he saw her on the hospital bed struggling to take out something from her arms. Here she took out a hard and solid thing wrapped in a handkerchief, and there she took out a small bag wrapped in newspaper and tied with a rubber band.
Seeing a row of six people beside the bed, Xu Qiang's eyes were a little complicated.
He knew what it was without opening it. Over the years, her way of saving money has never changed.
She looked at it eagerly, then raised her hand with great effort to push the thing in Xu Qiang's direction.
Seeing that she was struggling to push, Sun Jun stretched out his hand to help, but as soon as his hand passed by, she glared angrily, then raised her hand and hit Sun Jun on the back of his hand.
Sun Jun quickly put his hands behind his back and stood farthest away from the six wads of money.
The woman's expression softened, and she looked at Xu Qiang eagerly, wanting to ask him to take it.
Xu Qiang finally walked over and opened them one by one. The money inside was neatly packed in various denominations. Each pile contained one thousand yuan. These six piles amounted to six thousand yuan.
These savings are actually not that small.
Many families in rural areas are living a good life if they do not owe foreign debt.
Seeing that there are old coins on the face, you can tell how many years she has been saving this money.
But, if you have all this money, can't you buy some clothes for Sun Jun?
If you don’t buy good T-shirts, can’t you afford to buy them for three to five yuan a piece? Sneakers only cost three to five yuan a pair. The people in their dormitory also bought leather shoes for ten yuan a pair at the wholesale market. There is no problem at all after wearing them for half a year.
.
He knew that she had been expressing her guilt in this way over the years.
She tried her best to make up for the fact that the child was no longer around her. But the child who was around her became the original sin.
He felt that he was abandoned by his mother, but as for Sun Jun, he was abandoned in another sense.
Seeing her eldest son take the money, she fell asleep peacefully.
Xu Qiang pushed the money to Sun Jun: "It's yours, keep it."
Sun Jun waved his hand and backed away to the corner: "No, no, no!" He was very scared and nervous, "I don't want it, mom said it was for you. She said we are all sorry for you and we owe you. If I move
She won't let me go even if it's yours."
What's the meaning?
What can you touch me?
After a week of waiting, after calling an ambulance, doctors and nurses, and taking the person back to his hometown, Xu Qiang finally understood.
Next to the dilapidated old house, a new yard was built. At the back of the yard is a two-story small foreign-style building, and in front is a three-room concierge. The gate is broad, and both agricultural vehicles and cars can enter and exit.
The woman on the hospital bed suddenly had a bright look in her eyes. She held her eldest son's hand and said in a low voice, "This is the house that mom prepared for you to use as your wife."
It would cost 30,000 to 40,000 to get down to this yard.
Xu Qiang's eyes were red and his lips moved but he couldn't say a word.
A trace of pride flashed in the woman's eyes: "This is the homestead of the Xu family. It was left to you by your grandfather and grandmother. Over the years, I have saved it bit by bit..." She lowered her voice and said, "Sun
Jun's dad still doesn't know who owns this house." He said, holding his eldest son's hand tightly, "Don't hate mom! After mom gave you to your dad, she couldn't sleep every night. She was afraid of him.
It would not be good for you to marry again, I am afraid that you will not have enough to eat and clothing to keep warm..."
Hate?
I no longer hate it!
Love?
He thought he didn't love her anymore.
But why does my heart ache so much?
Xu Qiang took a deep breath and said, "Then let's go back."
The woman held her son's hand and said, "If you don't go in..." she pointed to the old house next to her, "Just live there... I will die in this old house..." You can't dirty the child's place.
Xu Qiang pursed his lips and asked, "Are you my mother?"
The woman nodded slightly, seeming a little hurt. She was his mother, always had been. Even though she had missed him, she had never let go of her son in her heart.
Xu Qiang also nodded: "I am also your son. Since this house is given to me, it belongs to me. What's the problem if a mother lives with her son?"
The woman burst into tears. It turned out that her son still recognized her.
She nodded with a smile, lay down on the push-pull hospital bed, and entered the house.
The furniture and appliances in the house are all new. Qing Ping walked around and found that everything in the house, even the rice cooker, was of the same brand.
She never compromised on this.
Sun Jun stood stiffly in the yard, neither going in nor coming out. He was holding the hem of his new T-shirt and stirring it constantly.
Qingping said: "Please help me sweep the yard. No one has lived there for a long time, and the ground is full of dust."
Sun Jun responded loudly, swept the floor, squatted on the ground and wiped the cement floor with a rag.
Qing Ping felt particularly uncomfortable watching it.
Xu Tian came over the next day, took a look inside and out, and sighed without saying anything.
Seeing Qingping following him busy in and out, cooking and washing clothes, he felt guilty. It was only when Qingping followed him that he realized that his brat was having sex with someone else's child.
I couldn't be more satisfied with this choice.
The second brother and his wife are good people, and their children are well tutored. It is not an exaggeration to say that they have watched this child grow up.
The relationship with the Jin family is as close as it gets.
It is truly a virtue of his ancestors that his son can really marry such a girl. The key is to know the roots and not worry about others looking down on the Xu family. After all, he has been in prison and is always afraid of being picked by his future in-laws.
Sitting in the yard helping Qing Ping choose vegetables, he said: "Ping, if Xu Qiang is not good, tell me. I can't beat him."
Qingping responded with a smile.
At the dinner table, Xu Qiang discussed with Qingping, "I want to spend 100,000 yuan to build a teaching building for Murakami's primary school..."
Now the village is raising funds, and each family seems to need two to three hundred.
Qingping was stunned for a moment, his face turned red, and he was discussing what he was doing. Your father was sitting next to him.
She winked at him, but he looked at her stubbornly, waiting for her to speak.
Qingping glanced at Xu Tian and saw that the other person was sitting there eating with his eyes and nose in mind. Every time he raised his eyes, he knew that he really didn't care.
She thought about Xu Qiang's words, why did she bring up this matter at this time?
Then it suddenly dawned on him that he had not been back to his hometown here for more than ten years, and he was not very familiar with his relatives and neighbors. That is to say, Xu Tian came back every year during Qingming Festival and New Year's Eve to visit the graves of his ancestors. Other than that, his social interactions were light.
very.
This is nothing, but if there is a funeral at home and no one from the village comes to help, the coffin may not be carried to the cemetery.
Spending 100,000 yuan buys people's hearts and accomplishes practical things.
Qingping nodded: "Okay. You can go and do it after dinner. Go back to the county and find someone to prescribe some painkillers, whether it is morphine or narcotic acid... to be prepared..."
As soon as the one hundred thousand yuan came out, the family suddenly became lively. One family brought eggs to see the patient, and the other family brought malted milk powder. The woman lying on the bed suddenly seemed to have good popularity.
This one says that you have to take good care of yourself and you will be happy in the future. The other one says that you should eat whatever you want and you will be blessed in the future.
Amid the compliments of everyone, this hateful, pitiful and deplorable woman persisted for ten days and then breathed her last.
There are no relatives left in the Sun family. Sun Jun’s grandparents only have one child, and that is Sun Jun’s incompetent father. He died a few years ago, and now that Sun Jun’s father died, he is the only one left. The same goes for Xu Qiang.
Same, it doesn't matter anymore.
There is nowhere to report the funeral.
I don’t have any blood relatives, but I still have many friends.
Xu Tian has interacted with a lot of people in the county over the years. Colleagues in the same unit, as well as people like Lao San who are well-known outside, have to say something.
Xu Tian called and told them one by one.
Then Lin Yutong sent Qingning and Qingyuan back. They should go to the funeral. It was not to give face to the dead, but to give face to the living.
Qinghui also asked for leave, and Qingning called Yan Yan again, "...Do you want to go? What's the rules for this matter?"
Strictly say: "Book my flight. I'll take leave immediately."
Qiao Nan Jiangshui and others personally called Xu Qiang to express their condolences, and then asked Qing Ning to bring a gift. The last gift.
There was no one left, and Sun Jun was crying beside him, out of breath.
But Xu Qiang didn't even have time to cry, he had to arrange a funeral. This was his first time doing this, and he didn't understand many of the regulations. The customs are different in different places, and there are still some differences between his hometown here and Taiping Town.
The village chief said to Xu Qiang: "There are two things you need to make a decision quickly. Your mother, is this the ancestral tomb buried in the Sun family, or the ancestral tomb buried in the Xu family? Also, who should be called the person who sweeps the tomb to welcome the spirits?
Who is going?"
Xu Qiang didn't want to be buried in the Sun family. Just because the bastard left the patient behind in the end, he couldn't be buried there. As for the Xu family, forget it. If there really was another world, it wouldn't be bad enough for his father to pass away in the future.
What's heartfelt.
He asked: "Can I choose another place?"
Okay! Why not? It's just a little bit off. It has nothing to do with the overall situation.
The village chief nodded: "You and the grave diggers in our village will go and have a look later and choose a location."
Xu Qiang agreed, but he didn't understand what it meant to visit graves and welcome spirits.
His father said beside him: "Usually this is the errand of the daughter-in-law at home. If not..." It is said that when they arrived at the other end, they couldn't even get a meal.
In many families, it's time to find a goddaughter. There is such a thing as asking the goddaughter to go out.
Of course, this has to be a very good family, and only with generous gifts would they be willing to ask their daughter to go.
Xu Qiang was stunned for a moment, then looked back at Qingping.
Qingping looked at Xu Qiang's thin face with high cheekbones, and her heart really ached for no reason. She nodded almost instinctively.
Xu Qiang looked at Qingping with red eyes, and said, "If I treat you badly in the future, I will really die without a burial place."
Because of Qingping's temporary decision, the status of the Jin family has changed.
This is the same as getting engaged.
Then the Jin family are not friends, but relatives by marriage.
The third child was the first to arrive, and he was stunned when he saw his eldest niece wearing a sackcloth and mourning with only a piece of red cloth hanging on her chest.
This news was too sudden for him.
Xu Tian held the phone in his hand and was about to call the second child, but the third child came.
He quickly said: "It's my fault. I should have told my second brother and sister in advance. You saw what happened..."
It happened suddenly and it was a funeral. I didn't know there were still such rules in the county.
The third child was so angry that he couldn't let it out right now. He quickly asked someone to find out how the in-laws usually leave the ceremony. Then he was responsible for telling his second brother and sister back.
There are many people in the Jin family, and there are several houses. Ordinarily, we should tell the Lin family, but after all, the two children have never been famous, so Yingzi won't say anything. Let's leave it like that for now.
Then the Jin family's things were prepared, and there were plenty of them. When Qingning and Qingyuan came back, Yingzi had already helped prepare a copy.
Strictly asked Qing Ning: "So are Xu Qiang and I considered in-laws or something?"
Don’t push yourself too far!
Qingning glared at him.
Strictly according to the in-laws, sufficient sacrifices were prepared, and then the gift was based on the exchange between friends, with a direct gift of 10,000 yuan.
People here in Xujia Village have also gained experience. After Xu Tian went out, not only did he become successful, but his son also became successful.
My friends all give me gifts of 10,000 to 10,000 yuan, and this in-law is really encouraging.
No wonder people can donate 100,000 yuan in one go. This 100,000 yuan may be nothing to them.
Many children in the village who had bullied Sun Jun came to play with Sun Jun, "How lucky you are. Look at how rich your elder brother is."
Sun Jun burst into tears. What did he say? He would rather have a beggar mother than an official father. He no longer has a beggar mother, let alone an official father. What should he do in the future? There is only one left.
Terrified.
In general, this woman lived a miserable life, but after her death, she really became famous. This funeral was discussed in the surrounding villages, and even ten or twenty years later, it was talked about. After all,
Over the years, it has never been surpassed.
After the first seven days, the gate here is locked and we return to the county town over there.
From now on, if you go to places like 3757, you can just drive back and burn paper.
Sun Jun pulled open the window glass and quietly looked at the village left behind, trying to reduce his presence as much as possible and huddled in his seat.
The remaining problem is Sun Jun.
Abandoned to fend for themselves?
Xu Qiang asked himself, he couldn't do such a cruel thing.
When he got home, he didn't rush to ask Qingping to go home, "We have something to discuss."
So Qingping was dragged to Xu's house.
Xu Qiang looked at Sun Jun, who had his head lowered and was covered in sweat as if he was scared to sweat so much: "Go take a shower first..."
Sun Jun ran into the bedroom and then into the kitchen, and only found the bathroom the third time.
Qing Ping pushed Xu Qiang: "He doesn't know how to use a water heater. Please help him check it out."
As a result, Xu Qiang followed him in and was stunned.
Sun Jun's body was full of wounds.
He almost couldn't believe his eyes: "Who hit you...?"
Xu Tian and Qingping ran over and were frightened by the scene in front of them.
Yes! Who shot this?
The shapes of the wounds are all kinds of strange, with new scars and old scars pressing one on top of the other.
Sun Jun shrank back, all the way to the corner, and then slowly squatted down, not daring to get up.
Xu Qiang directly called the village chief and the police station over there. The child had just been handed over to him. He had to explain this clearly, otherwise if something happened in the future, he would think he was the one who beat him.
He was also angry. If he was bullied like this at school, he would definitely call the police.
Clean him and take him out. Ask him and he won't say anything.
When the police station and the village chief arrived, Xu Tian asked the two of them to take a look, "There must be an explanation for this."
The village chief said: "An explanation? What explanation do you want? His father beat him, and his mother was beaten with him. His mother can still protect him, but if his mother goes out to make money, there will be no one to protect him."
.Murakami took care of it a few times, but he couldn’t take care of it anymore..."
No one feels comfortable. This child grew up amidst his father’s domestic violence and his mother’s limited care.
Xu Qiang looked at the young man in front of him, remembering how happy he was when he first had his younger brother. He was fat and white, and would spit bubbles when he fell asleep. When Chun Shang played the willow flute and made some noise, he would giggle.
Laugh.
Now, the fat and white baby overlapped with the bruised boy, and his chest felt sore and painful.
"Go to the hospital." I felt sad and sympathetic, but I couldn't delay the business.
They have to ask them to testify that the child was injured when they were handed over to them.
In the hospital, under the doctor's questioning, Sun Juncai said intermittently: "...some were burned by cigarette butts, and some were hit by my dad with red-hot chopsticks...when the shovel hit his back, it bled...and he was hit with a hoe...
Yes, the flesh is turned out...it becomes swollen in the summer..."
Qingping felt that it was a miracle that the child survived.
Xu Tian cursed a beast, "You are really not a human being!"
After bringing the child back, Xu Qiang told him to contact the school. If that didn't work, he would ask him to live in the school. After asking, he found out that he was thirteen years old and had only entered the second grade of elementary school.
Then Xu Qiang fell silent.
With injuries like that, sometimes you won't be able to go to school for a month or two, let alone getting injured again.
Xu Qiang didn't have time to teach, so he hired a tutor. This means that at the age of thirteen, his understanding ability has improved. If he really wants to make up for it, he can easily make up for the content of a few years of elementary school. As for addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, how much can it be?
Disaster.
As a result, the teacher took two classes and told Xu Qiang that it was really not the material for reading.
Xu Qiang also understands this. There are always a few poor students in the school. They are either stupid or not very knowledgeable about their studies.
What can be done?
Sun Jun was particularly uneasy, as if he couldn't do anything he asked him to do.
If you want to say that you can't learn well, it's okay to learn a craft. But others will definitely be picky and say that you don't care about other people's children.
what to do?
Xu Qiang asked him: "What do you want to do when you grow up?"
"I want to be a policeman." When he mentioned this, his eyes were bright.
Xu Qiang was stunned for a moment: "Why do you want to be a policeman?"
Sun Jun lowered his head: "I... When my father beat me when I was a child... I ran to the police... The police came but they didn't care... They are not good policemen... I want to be a policeman and beat him
Catch all the bad guys in the children..."
Xu Qiang: "..." He didn't know what to say for a moment.
Xu Tian muttered "doing evil" and said, "Then become a policeman." Then he added, "I will hire a teacher for you, and you can quickly make up for my elementary school classes. After you graduate from junior high school, I will pay to send you to the police academy."
go……"
Even if you work as a police officer in a small town when you come back, at least you won't go astray.
Xu Qiang looked at his father and didn't agree very much.
Xu Tian slapped him away: "I have the final say on this matter."
But I said to that bastard in my heart: You robbed my wife, and I robbed your son. I not only need to raise your son to maturity, but also develop talents. Then I will enjoy his filial piety. When I get there, I will be ashamed.
I'll be ashamed to death, you little bitch.
After the matter was settled, Xu Tian specially hired Zhou Wen as a matchmaker, took the betrothal gift, and went to the Jin family to propose marriage.
My daughter had paid tribute to our family, and when it was over, we couldn't leave it at all. After March 7th, she went to the Jin family's door in a serious manner.
The mood of the Jin family is extremely complicated.
Of course it was a matter of time before my daughter got married, but I didn’t expect it to be so early. I originally thought that no matter how early it was, it would be two or three years after graduation, and we would talk about it after the job was stable. Who knew that it would happen so suddenly?
It's settled.
When it comes to the Xu family, the couple has no dissatisfaction.
Xu Tian is a good person. He has a good relationship with the third child and can wear a pair of trousers, and the fourth child is very kind to him. Then the two families have been in contact with each other over the years, and they know everything about him.
In Yingzi's opinion, there is no mother-in-law in the family yet. Without a mother-in-law, there will be fewer unnecessary conflicts. If Xu Tian really finds someone to live with in the future, it will be her mother-in-law after all, and they will not live together at all. One year
It's easy to talk even if you can't see both sides.
The key is that the couple really likes Xu Qiang.
She is good-looking, really good! They all feel that their daughter is actually a little unworthy of others.
Then there is the temperament, steady, down-to-earth, able to come up with things, and able to do things. I can eat well outside, but I don't have the kind of flamboyant temperament.
What's there to choose from?
Because of this, the Jin family accepted the sudden situation very quickly.
Now the matchmaker came to the door, and the bride price alone was ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine.
Full of sincerity.
The second brother Jin collected all the money and things, but called the fourth child back: "Help me look at a house in the capital, and give it to Qingping as a dowry." He didn't want the bride price of nearly 100,000 yuan, so he wanted to add some more money to give to his children.
Buy a house and pay a down payment. In the past few years, the couple has been slowly paying it off, and when Qingping gets a job, he can pay it back.
Fourth Master asked Cheng Hai to help arrange the arrangement. For a down payment of 180,000 yuan, Qingping got a large house with a duplex structure of 200 square meters.
She was so frightened that she asked Xu Qiang to come over and take a look, "I can't buy this house even if I add two hundred and eighty thousand yuan."
Xu Qiang laughed: "Fourth uncle subsidized us, so you can continue. Just don't yell and get out."
But how could I accept such a heavy gift?
Qingping was so frightened that he called home and told his parents about the incident.

Do you have a house in Beijing? What a blessing!"
Who married his son? He said it as if he was doing it for money.
