Chapter 169
No matter what time it is, the fine scale fish is more expensive than vermicelli. Zhang Shuzhen was naturally happy when she heard it.

So, the mother and son decided to remove the vermicelli and replace it with fish.

In addition to these, if the conditions are good, they will buy a set of clothes and shoes, or a watch for the woman.

Of course, the Sheng family had given away all these things, so Zhang Shuzhen asked her son if he needed to prepare a bride price.

"I thought about it, Qinglan is a girl from the city, and she has been wronged by marrying into our small valley.

You have made a lot of money this autumn, so why don't you give the Zhou family a bride price of 160 yuan, which is our wish. "

"Mom, it's up to you to make the decision, if our family can get it, then we can.

After all, Zhou's family raised Qinglan all these years, and no amount of money can exchange it.

If the family has no money and can't get it out, we don't have to force it. The Zhou family is reasonable and can't force us to ask for it. "

Sheng Xiping hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"What about the second and third children? My engagement is too grand. What about the rest of them? Isn't it embarrassing for parents?"

If he spoke from his heart, no amount of bride price would be too much for the Zhou family.

The daughter who has been carefully raised by others over the years, spends money at her mother's house and earns at her in-law's house, so she should show something.

But from the Sheng family's side, the burden of the four sons in the family is quite heavy.

The eldest is getting married, and the family has a new house and a complete set of furniture, and the dowry money is indeed enough for the Sheng family to afford.

The point is, there are three sons in the back, and the conditions for marrying a wife can't be worse than that of the boss, right?

That would cost a lot of money.

That's why Sheng Xiping said, let Zhang Shuzhen look at the arrangement, and don't give up all his family wealth for him to marry a wife.

"Yes, yes, you don't need to count your salary, just the money you get back from hunting pine nuts and hunting in autumn is enough."

When Zhang Shuzhen heard this, she said quickly.

"Your brother and the others are still young, don't worry about it for now, let's marry you first.

You have not studied since you graduated from junior high school, and you have been working at home to earn money in the past few years.

You can't be too shabby when you get married. "

Parents have a steelyard in their hearts. Good parents try to be fair and treat every child the same.

Of course, there are also those few parents who don't care for obedient and sensible children, but prefer children who can cry, make trouble, and fight everywhere.

Isn't that the old saying?Partial love does not help, often the more parents favor the one, the less promising in the future.

Sheng Liancheng and his wife treat their children equally as much as possible.

Sheng Xiping is the eldest son in the family, and he will be the head of the family in the future. He is sensible and capable, so his parents value him very much.

Sheng Liancheng and his wife had discussed it a long time ago. As long as the family can afford it, the elder son's marriage should be more grand.

Now that his mother said so, Sheng Xiping couldn't say anything more.

A bride price of 160 yuan is a lot in this year.

While talking, a dog barked outside. It turned out that Wang Jianshe and Chen Weiguo came to look for Sheng Xiping when they were free.

"Xi Ping, I heard from Hai Ning that you plan to go down tomorrow and get engaged at Zhou's house the day after tomorrow?
There is no train tomorrow, how can we go down? "Wang Jianshe asked as soon as he entered the door.

"Oh, we're thinking, leave early tomorrow, go to the other side of Ma'anshan, and take the small train down."

Sheng Xiping didn't hide anything, and replied directly.

"Oh my god, it's going to take about two hours, right?

Why can't you and your uncle work hard all day long? Auntie and Fengying's mother must be too tired? "

Upon hearing this, Wang Jianshe quickly shook his head.

"I think so, you hurry to the big alkali field.

Find your master or Brother Liu, and ask their production team to borrow horses and sledges.

Tomorrow, Weiguo and I will drive the sledge to see you off, so that you won't be burdened, and it will be faster.

After we sent it to Ma'anshan, we drove the horse back to the sledge and sent it back to the alkali field, wouldn't it be enough? "

Wang Jianshe thought for a while and gave Sheng Xiping an idea.

"Hey, that's a good thing, it just makes you two suffer."

Upon hearing this, Sheng Xiping realized that this arrangement was indeed more reasonable.

In fact, Sheng Xiping also thought that it would be much more convenient if he had a horse sledge or something.

But who drives the sledge?The two younger brothers in my family are both young and have never experienced anything, so I really dare not let them drive the sledge to give away.

Since Wang Jianshe and the others took the initiative, Sheng Xiping couldn't refuse.

"That's it. Tomorrow, you two will bring your guns, so as not to encounter wild beasts on the way back when there are few people."

The road from Qianchuan to Ma'anshan passes through the middle of the big forest. There are not many people walking on normal days, so there are some wild animals.

The semi-automatic that Sheng Xiping borrowed from the security department hadn't been returned before, and with the No. 16 gun, Wang Jianshe and Chen Weiguo could just use it for self-defense.

It's not certain that you will be able to meet some beasts, just in case.

"Success, I will do as you say." Wang Jianshe and Chen Weiguo both nodded and agreed.

In this way, Sheng Xiping quickly put on his clothes, and together with Wang Jianshe and the others, went to the other side of the alkali field to find Liu Changde.

When the Liu family heard that Sheng Xiping was going to Songjianghe to get engaged, they were all very happy.

Liu Yujiang immediately agreed to ask Sheng Xiping and the others to come and drive the horses and sledges tomorrow morning.

Coincidentally, the Liu family sold the copper gallbladder a few days ago, and Liu Yujiang had to give Sheng Xiping a third of the money.

Sheng Xiping refused to take it, but the Liu family couldn't hold him back. In the end, Sheng Xiping didn't want it all, and only accepted 100 yuan.

February 24th is the [-]th of the twelfth lunar month.

After breakfast in the morning, Wang Jianshe, Chen Weiguo, and Gao Haining drove the horses and sledges, escorted the three members of the Sheng family and Tang Fengying's mother Li Yuqin, and went straight to the Ma'anshan Forest Farm along the simple forest road.

In the forest area of ​​Changbai Mountain, the temperature is very low in winter, and everyone wears a lot of hats and scarves.

Sheng Xiping also specially brought out two roe deer skin mattresses from home, and covered Zhang Shuzhen and Li Yuqin with them.

When they left home, Zhang Shuzhen and Li Yuqin each brought a warm water bag.

Just like that, when they arrived at Ma'anshan, they also felt panicked from the cold.

Wang Jianshe and the others drove the horse sledge to the small railway station of Ma'anshan Forest Farm, just at this time the small train just entered the station.

Many people got off the small train, and a lot of goods transferred from the store had to be unloaded.

Then the locomotive went to the east triangle line and turned around, added water and coal on the water building, and came back to complete the assembly of the carriages, luggage carts, and caboose.

After such a toss, four or ten minutes passed, waiting for everything to be ready, the carriage opened again, and the passengers boarded the train.

"Uncle, Auntie, then we will send it here, please be careful on the way."

Seeing that the door of the carriage was open, Wang Jianshe and the others hurriedly escorted Sheng Liancheng and the others into the car, then greeted Sheng Liancheng and the others, and got out of the car.

"Building and defending the country, you should be careful when you go back.

Be careful on the road, hurry home and don't cause trouble.

When I come back, we will go hunting when we are free. "

When they came, they saw the footprints of many wild animals on the road, and a group of roe deer ran away in front of them.

Sheng Xiping was worried that these people would go hunting on the way back, and they wanted to go hunting or something, what if they were in danger?So tell them.

"Understood, don't worry." Wang Jianshe and others waved their hands and left.
