Reborn 1980, Mountains Have Spirits, I Have Fields

Chapter 66 Returning to Her Parents' Home (Part [-])
Mother Luo first had two sons, and finally gave birth to a little girl, who was also lovely Yuxue, who had been a flower in the village since she was a child.Saying you don't like it would be a lie.What's more, such a handsome girl can only be exchanged for a large gift money when she is well raised.

When Guixiang grows up, the suitors step through the threshold.For some reason, Guixiang fell in love with Xiao Yueshan and had a free love affair.Yueshan has a face with Chinese characters, sword eyebrows and star eyes, and a tall figure.In a group of young men, he is simply outstanding.Even Luo's mother thinks that the daughter has a good vision.But Luo's father felt that Yueshan's family was in Nanping, and it would take a whole day to go back and forth by bus, which was a little far away.He is not a clerk or cadre, and he is afraid that he will not be able to help his family, so he is not very happy.In the end, it was Luo's mother who hammered the final word: such a handsome and upright man is definitely not someone in the pool.As long as he can afford the dowry money requested by his family, his daughter will marry him!

In order to collect the bride price, Yueshan went to Xianyun Mountain to hunt and collect mushrooms, plus the 300 yuan saved by his parents, he made up 800 yuan.Married Guixiang back.

Back then, the bride price of 800 yuan was sky-high.

Now that the son-in-law I fancy is really prosperous, Mother Luo is naturally proud.

She called the eldest daughter-in-law and stuffed 50 yuan and a meat ticket, and asked her to buy some fish and meat to entertain her daughter.

Lu Ying was stunned and couldn't believe it: "Why are there so many?"

Luo Mu whispered: "The money and tickets are all from Guixiang."

Lu Ying was stunned, and smacked her lips for a long time before asking, "Is my brother-in-law's family rich?"

Luo Mu happily said: "Let's talk about it in the evening, you go buy meat first."

So Lu Ying bought five catties of short ribs and six catties of pork belly, which cost less than thirty.Before dark, Zhiyuan and his son returned home from fishing, bringing back a variety of seafood.Hearing that my sister came back, I was so happy that I immediately bought seafood to entertain her.

In the main room, the whole family was divided into two tables, one for the elders and one for the younger.

Guixiang wanted to show off and volunteered to invite Ying.She is in charge of Lingmei's side dishes.Boiled squid, tomato seafood soup, steamed scallops with vermicelli.With the addition of short ribs in black bean sauce and braised pork, two tables were packed.

The adults are happy, and the children are also excited for the New Year.

Brother Zhiqiang and Zhiyuan sipped rice wine and ate seafood, and they kept praising their sister for getting better and better, and they could catch up with the restaurants in the town.A big pot of tomato and seafood soup, grabbing every drop.

Luo's mother looked at her daughter unexpectedly: "You have grown a lot this year. Get married tomorrow, and you will be in charge."

Gui Xiang said happily, "Is Ziqiu engaged?"

Ziqiu blushed.

Lu Ying smiled and said, "It hasn't been decided yet. The other party wants a high bride price."

Guixiang asked, "Which family is the girl from?"

"A girl from a nearby town. Her surname is Ye, and her name is Jingzhen." Lu Ying frowned, "She is talented, beautiful and capable. She is also a salesperson in a state-run department store. So this bride price—" She stretched out her palm and turned it over twice.

Guixiang said: "1000 yuan? That's okay."

"It's [-]!" Luo Mu sighed, "They also need a TV and a refrigerator."

Gui Xiang was stunned: Ten thousand?Is this selling a girl? !Want a TV and refrigerator?How much does that cost?
"That's not true. We've already asked someone. A TV costs 500 yuan, and a two-door refrigerator costs 700 yuan more. And it's not something you can buy with money, so you have to find someone to walk you." Lu Ying sigh. "Why is getting married more and more difficult now?"

Gui Xiang blurted out, "Money is not a problem."

Everyone in the Luo family fixed their surprised gazes on Guixiang's face.Guixiang puffed out her chest proudly: "Mother, big brother and sister-in-law. As long as you can get tickets for the TV and refrigerator, I will pay for it."

Lu Ying was overjoyed: My sister-in-law's family is really prosperous!

Guixiang's ears were instantly filled with laughter and praise, she turned her head proudly and met Lingmei's indifferent eyes who were eating at the small table.

Even Ling Hui looked at him displeased.

With a jerk, she came back to her senses.

Have you grown up yourself?

Think again, what is a 2000 yuan?It is only natural for her to subsidize her natal brothers.So he pretended not to see his son's displeasure, and continued drinking and eating with his brother.

After dinner, Zhiqiang, who was a little drunk because he was happy, got up and said: "Zixuan, you clear the table, Zichun and Lingmei go wash the dishes and cook the pot."

He has long disliked Ling Mei.She was pretty cute before, but this year she's really outrageous.Sitting with his nephews and eating the meat and vegetables in the bowl, it is not polite at all.Didn't see his Zichun move his chopsticks after eating two bites of meat?
Zichun Zixuan responded immediately.Lingmei looked at her mother without saying a word.

The visitor is the guest.

As a guest, she cooked the dishes for a long time and asked her to wash the dishes. This uncle can really say it.

Seeing that Ling Mei did not move, everyone was a little embarrassed for a moment.Zhiqiang said displeased: "What's going on? Don't you listen to uncle? Guixiang, how did you teach your daughter?"

Guixiang got up, and quickly gave her daughter winks, not wanting to make Mei smile, and said to her mother: "You don't have enough food, clothing, and money, and you still want to send your daughter to be a servant?"

These words are too harsh.Except for Brother Ling Hui, everyone in the room turned pale instantly.

Gui Xiang faltered: "You, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Lingmei looked at Luo's mother's frightened and angry face, and said calmly: "Grandma, didn't my mother tell you? The rapeseeds are grown by me, the restaurant is from someone I found, and the clothes are also brought by me. At home I earned most of the money."

Before Luo's mother could answer, Zhiqiang slammed on the table: "Fart! I want to ask Xiao Yueshan, how did you raise you as a girl! Dare to disrespect your elders, believe it or not, I will beat you to death?!"

Lu Ying also sneered beside her: "Sister, you girl should be taught a lesson and talk nonsense."

Zhiyuan and his wife smoothed things over: "Brother, you, an elder, have the nerve to argue with Lingmei? Besides, she is a guest—"

"Uncle is old enough to know?" Zhiqiang slapped the table, "Xiao Lingmei, you won't wash the dishes today, believe it or not, I'll beat you until your parents don't recognize you?"

Ling Yun cried loudly: "Uncle is bullying, uncle is bullying——"

Gui Xiang hurriedly hugged Ling Yun to coax her: "Don't cry, don't cry, uncle won't bully you!"

Although Ling Hui didn't like Ling Mei's domination, he also couldn't understand the arrogant attitude of his uncle's family.He clapped the chopsticks and said coldly: "My sister is telling the truth. The family's money is indeed earned by her efforts. Mother, please explain clearly to uncle."

Guixiang laughed together: "Brother, Lingmei's temper is a bit stubborn, you—ah, mother, what are you doing?"

Luo Mu jumped out with a livid face, and she took a feather duster and lashed at Zhiqiang's body: "You bastard, you will go crazy after drinking a little wine. Lingmei is a guest, a guest! How can there be any reason to ask a guest to work?"

Zhiqiang was kicked so hard by his old lady that he sobered up a little: "Mother, don't hit, don't hit. It hurts——"

Luo's mother continued to slap him: "You have the face to say how Yueshan teaches children, and you are not afraid of Yueshan asking who taught you the way of hospitality! Don't think that you can mess around when you are drunk, I don't like this!"

Zhiqiang was beaten and screamed by his mother.
