Chapter 287

The next day the matchmaker came again.

The old lady couldn't tell whether she was happy or not, anyway, she had a stern face and didn't seem to smile at all.

Can’t you laugh, Li Mubao was still worried the night before, and talked to the old lady after returning home, meaning that he wanted to agree to the Zhou family’s request, and he didn’t want to delay the marriage, after all, adults can wait, but He couldn't wait for the child in his womb.

As for the old lady saying that she has no money, Li Mubao has also figured out how to deal with it. He has already borrowed 100 yuan from his colleagues. Borrow some money, at least get married first.

He has a job, and there will always be a day when La's famine is over.

What kind of mother-in-law would be happy to hear her son say that she is desperate to marry a daughter-in-law, not to mention that she doesn't like this daughter-in-law.

"Old sister, let me tell you, your daughter-in-law has a heart..." Matchmaker Wang pretended not to see the old lady's ugly face, and said what the Zhou family had explained with a smile.

It means that the Zhou family has already counted the money Li Mubao has earned in these years, which is enough to pay the bride price and the money to buy a bicycle. A big fat grandson is no happier than an old lady holding hundreds of dollars.

The old lady didn't feel happy. After the past few days, she didn't like Zhou Yaping's daughter-in-law even more. In the future, the old lady really didn't know whether she cared about her children.

After all, the Zhou family wanted a lot of gifts, and they also needed a bicycle, which was not a small amount, so the matchmaker ran between the two families several times, and finally finalized the specific number of gifts after a week.

The Zhou family and the Li family took a step back. The original 200 yuan dowry and a bicycle became a 100 yuan dowry plus a bicycle. The three sets of clothes for the new wife were reduced to one set, and the 20 yuan pocket money was gone.

The old lady felt that it was too much, but there was a son with a crooked elbow next to her, so she simply closed her eyes and ignored it. Anyway, he earned the money for his wife.

The Zhou family felt that the Li family gave less, and half of the betrothal gift was cut off. If the girl was not afraid of getting pregnant and getting married, they would have to continue to grind.

Because the new daughter-in-law already had a baby in her belly, the wedding date had to be set as far as possible, and in the end it was simply set on February [-].

Although the old lady was angry, she didn't miss what she was supposed to do. Taking advantage of the big market in the first month, she led her daughter to buy a lot of things for the wedding and came back.

There are a lot of things to pack at home.After setting the time, the old lady asked two nephews to help, and planned to tidy up Li Mobao's current house. After all, he was going to get married, so the house couldn't be dark, making it look ugly.

The old lady handed over all the kitchen work to the little girl, and made quilts with her sister-in-law when she saw the sky.

It stands to reason that the woman should bring these quilts from her husband's house, but the custom here is that people who love their sons will also make a set of quilts for the young couple just like the woman's family.

Of course, the bedding put on the bed on the wedding day must have been made by the woman.

The old lady was very angry at first and didn't want to do it for her son, but after being persuaded by Chen Fengzhen, she took all her head out, why bother with these three melons and two dates, and let her son's dissatisfied daughter-in-law chew her tongue, the loss outweighs the gain.

The old lady also listened to people's persuasion. After thinking about it for a while, she had already spent nearly 20 yuan on the inside and outside. Why don't you rub some powder on your face.

However, the marriage was decided in a hurry, and she would definitely not be able to buy cotton or something now, so she could only see who had stock in the village, and she would borrow it, and then return it when she bought it later.There are also fabrics for bedding. The old lady can't afford that much at once, so she can only take out two pieces of fabrics that are filial to her from her daughter, first of all bright colors.

As a result, the Li family didn't see the Zhou family delivering bedding until the day before the wedding.You must know that before marriage, the woman will send the quilt made in advance to the man's house, and spread it on the wedding bed on the wedding day.

"What is the Zhou family going to do? What time is it? If you haven't brought the bedding, will the marriage be over?" In the evening, it was confirmed that the Zhou family was going to accompany the bride to send the bedding, and the old lady couldn't help but get mad up.

It's thanks to her rush to make a new set in the past two days. Otherwise, the new house must not be naked on the day of the wedding. Of course, those who come to the wedding want to laugh at the fact that the mother's family doesn't love the girl, but they can't do it in private. Joke her Zuo Daya to find such an excellent in-law.

Li Mubao didn't know what was going on, "How about I go to the county to ask?"

"Where to go, it's this time, the old Zhou's family is still so careless, what do we care about so much, when we get the person back tomorrow, we will just sleep on the bed, I will see who is ashamed." During the negotiation of the pre-wedding gift, the old lady lost all affection for the Zhou family.

If she hadn't had to marry this way, she would have lifted the table and yelled at the divorce.

Besides, what time is it? If you go to the county at this time, you won’t be able to get home until midnight, so you don’t need to come back, just wait there for dawn and pick up the bride directly.

Hearing what his old mother said, Li Mubao was in a dilemma for a while, his daughter-in-law and his old mother on the one hand, his sandwich biscuits are not easy to make.

The next day was February [-], the day when the dragon raised its head, and it was also the day of the wedding. Li Mobao woke up early in the morning and changed into the Chinese tunic suit that his wife gave to him, which seemed a bit tall and handsome.

"Mom, did I go to Zhou's house to pick someone up?" Li Mobao greeted his old lady cheerfully, and prepared to walk to Zhou's house in the county to pick up his wife.

It had been discussed at the beginning, Li Mubao walked to the county, and then rode Zhou Yaping back to Lijiacun by bicycle.

"Well, let's go, go early and come back early." The old lady didn't want to pull her face when she was very happy, and said to her son calmly. Seeing that people left, she thought about going to her own room and making the quilt she had made Take my son to that house and replace the old one.

"Mother, didn't you say you didn't care, why did you make the bunk again?" Yuansi also got up early today, after all, there was a happy event at home, and no matter how lazy she was, she had to get up at this time, and someone from the village would definitely come Daoxi, if you see her still lying on the bed, you don't know what to tell her.

Yuansi herself doesn't care, what kind of reputation is not famous, can it be eaten as food?But the old lady paid attention to it, so she woke up her daughter early in the morning.

"Hmph, that's what you said. If someone comes, go to your brother's new house and see that it's a bare bed. On the bright side, you'll have to laugh at the Zhou family, but in private, you'll have to laugh at our family. Forget it, it's like this for the rest of your life. Once, I will treat it as a debt to them." After the old lady spread out the quilt, she went to the main room to look at the candy on the table, which was for entertaining people later.

"Hey, you, you have a knife mouth and a tofu heart. If you are like this, you will not be eaten to death by my brother's wife in the future!" Yuansi shook her head and sighed. What Xiao Fuwen said was what Xiao Fuwen said, and now she thinks it is very correct.

"You girl, what are you talking about, your old lady, am I such a useless person, I can't deal with a girl's film, I have spent my life in vain." The old lady didn't believe this evil, "Okay, don't stay here I’m poor with you, your brother and the others will come back at noon, hurry up and tidy up the kitchen, prepare more rice, noodles, grains and oils, don’t pick and search, there won’t be enough, it’s embarrassing.”
