Back to Eighty Zero: The Magical Chef

Chapter 61

Xu Xiaomei's complexion changed slightly, they had only seen the woman's photo, but they had never seen a real person, and according to the rural rules, shouldn't they get engaged before getting married: "Old sister, is the Qian family planning to get engaged? Besides, since the two children are still fresh, don't you have to get acquainted with them first?"

If the two meet, the woman is a fool and she can't let it go, and her high-stakes matchmaker red envelope will also be ruined. The matchmaker rolled her eyes and lied: "Oh, there is no way, Boss Qian only has these two. I stayed in the county for a month, and then I had to go back to Haishi to do business. After this time, who knows when I will come back, maybe it will be possible in three to five years. Not an old girl anymore!"

Xu Xiaomei nodded repeatedly. She was anxious to hold her grandson, and she really couldn't wait that long. She glanced at her husband next to her, as if asking for his opinion.

I saw Lin Youcai pretending to be smoking a dry cigarette, thinking for a long time, but didn't say a word.

The matchmaker is a good person, she immediately took out a thick red paper seal and a small red satin cloth bag from her bag, and said in an envious tone: "Oh, your son is really lucky, these are all money. My family asked me to bring it, saying it was for buying new clothes for the bridegroom officer, take a look!"

In front of her husband, Xu Xiaomei opened the red paper seal, which contained a thick stack of banknotes. The corners of her mouth were raised high, and her eyes were shining. There were at least three or four hundred yuan inside, and then she opened the satin cloth bag. From the zipper, a men's gold square ring slipped out of it. It was not only rich in material, but it was quite heavy in your hand when you weighed it.

At this moment, Xu Xiaomei couldn't hold back her excitement. She looked at her man again with anticipation, only to see Lin Youcai, who was smoking a dry cigarette, unmoved.

The matchmaker rolled her eyes and quickly added: "Oh, look at my brain, it's easy to forget things when I'm old. Before I came, the Qian family took special care of me. They said that before the wedding banquet, I got the marriage certificate. Hey, immediately arrange for your son to work in the county cultural center, and his household registration will also be moved to the county town along with it."

Now Xu Xiaomei couldn't sit still anymore, she walked to her husband's side, pushed him twice with her hands, and urged: "Old man, you are talking!"

Lin Youcai put down the dry tobacco in his hand, and nodded a few times with a smile in the corner of his eyes: "Okay, let's do it like this!"

With her husband's approval, Xu Xiaomei's face was full of joy, and she excitedly held the matchmaker's hand: "Old sister, in our generation, we didn't all meet each other on the day we got married, so we are living a good life now." .”

"That's the reason! Since your family doesn't have any objections, I chose a few days before I came here. You can see which one is applicable." The matchmaker took out a piece of neatly folded red paper, and after opening it, it said Three dates, the fastest day is next week, and the longest will have to wait two months.

After discussing with her husband, Xu Xiaomei decided to choose a middle number, and the wedding banquet will be held a month later.

"Oh, this day was chosen well. Don't worry when the time comes, the Qian family will send a car to pick up the groom!" The matchmaker smiled and said compliments.

After the wedding date was set, Xu Xiaomei became anxious: "I have to quickly list the guests, old lady..."

Before the words were finished, the matchmaker took the lead and said: "The Qian family specifically asked me to remind you about the wedding banquet. They plan to hold a banquet in the county town. The guests they invite are either cadres or intellectuals. They can't be with you." Let’s eat and drink together with those who plan food in the ground, so when the time comes, just your two elders and the bridegroom’s sister’s family will be fine.”

Afraid of embarrassing the Lin family's face, she added: "I think, speaking to the outside world, the young couple put wine at both ends, and the woman puts theirs. You Lin family can also put wine in the village! Do you think so? ?”

Although the faces of the Lin family couple were somewhat ugly, they could only nod helplessly when they thought of all the generous rewards from the woman.

The marriage between the two families was settled, and the matchmaker went back. As soon as they left, Xu Xiaomei immediately took out the red paper and counted the money: "Old man, there is a full 400 yuan here!"

Lin Youcai cast a glance at his wife, and said with disgust, "Look at how promising you are!" After speaking, he went out with his hands behind his back.

Lin Qingguo, who knew the marriage was settled, walked around the room happily, picked up the woman's photo, and shouted affectionately: "Rou Rou!"

How could Xu Xiaomei hide such a big good thing, she put the big gold ring sent by the matchmaker on her finger, and walked out to show off.

"Hey, Xiaomei, you look good today!"

"Isn't it, your face is flushed, is there any happy event?"

"That's a good relationship, tell me quickly, let us also be happy!"

Xu Xiaomei proudly raised her head, put the hand with the gold ring on her forehead, and pretended to wipe the sweat: "It's really hot today, look at the sweat on my forehead." After wiping off his sweat, he put his slightly damp hands in front of the eyelids of several people and turned them around.

The shining big gold ring almost blinded the village women, who still cared about the weather, and all of them focused on Xu Xiaomei's hand.

"Xiaomei, your ring is really big! It's almost as big as my big brother!"

"It's the first time I've seen such a big gold ring! Shouldn't it be a little smaller?"

"Is it pure gold? Can your teeth move?"

They grabbed Xu Xiaomei's hand and looked left and right, but they couldn't get enough of it, so they reached out and touched it.

"Be careful, don't break it! This is the wedding ring of our Qing Dynasty, so it's heavy enough!" Xu Xiaomei looked proud, her chin was raised high, and her eyeballs were almost growing to her forehead.

Lin Qingguo was going to get married, and when he said this, all the women in the village were taken aback.

"Married? When did your family, Qingguo, get married?"

"You got married just after you got hurt? Which girl did you marry?"

"Is it from our village?"

Xu Xiaomei, who was smiling happily, was waiting for them to ask this question, and she pretended to say: "Our Qingguo is so outstanding, how can the girls in the surrounding villages be worthy of it? Of course, we are looking for a girl from the county town, someone's father." , still doing business in Haishi!"

Hearing this, several village women turned their faces instantly, each of them smiled and flattered, Xu Xiaomei felt that she hadn't heard enough good things, and added specially: "The little whites in those three-story buildings in the county town Lou has seen it before, this is my daughter-in-law's house! When the young couple get married, our family, Qing Guo, will go to the cultural center to work like his brother-in-law!"

Now the village women tried their best to please her. Everyone's face was full of envy, but there was a trace of jealousy in their eyes. When Xu Xiaomei left, they swept away the smiling faces just now, looked at each other, and turned away. I curled my lips, knowing it in my heart.
