Chapter 17

In the memory of the original owner, there are not many relatives in his family.There is no need to think about it on the Mo family's side, even if there are relatives, it is impossible to propose such words as kissing and kissing.

In ancient times, people could accept cousins ​​getting married, but they couldn't accept two people of the same race even if their blood relationship was far away.Therefore, the matchmaker can only be sent by A Niang's natal family, or from A Niang's natal family.

After careful consideration, Mo Qianrui ruled out Grandma's natal family first.Grandma is a relatively strong person, if she really wanted to do this, she would not have specially invited the matchmaker over, let alone allow Grandma to refuse.Let's put it this way, whenever grandma wants to interfere in her own marriage, all she has to do is force daddy to submit, and other people's opinions don't matter at all.

If it wasn't for Grandma...

"Mother, is that Matchmaker Lin called by the chicken thief that Dad and I met yesterday?"

Mo Qianrui rushed to the yard in a hurry, and saw that Auntie was busy in an empty granary, so she hurriedly opened the door and asked loudly.

The movements of A Niang's hands stopped, an embarrassed expression appeared on her face, and she forced herself to be calm and said: "What nonsense, who's young girl who hasn't left the cabinet always talks about the matchmaker? Hurry up and take the second Go out and play."

He didn't ask any more questions. Seeing A Niang's appearance, Mo Qianrui couldn't figure it out, and immediately became anxious: "A Niang, I don't want to marry that chicken thief!"

"All right, all right, the more I talk about it, the more I go too far. Didn't I refuse this marriage? You are a little girl, why don't you be ashamed when I say it? You just talked about a matchmaker, and you said whether you will marry or not. ah!"

A Niang was also a little annoyed, she walked over and poked Mo Qianrui's forehead fiercely, in her opinion, even a newly married daughter-in-law would not do this.

It's just that shyness...does it have anything to do with Mo Qianrui?

Although she thinks she is not the kind of person who can let go, but in her previous life, she and Tang Yanxiu went to the streets together, didn't they always hold hands?And because neither of them had parents, she was in charge of their marriage.Even if the two of them haven't reached the final step, they can just talk, without any psychological barriers at all.

I didn't bother to tell my mother these things, mainly because I was afraid that these arguments would surprise my mother. Thinking that this matter should have been settled, Mo Qianrui would not be entangled anymore.

However, when Dad came back in the evening, Mo Qianrui still told Dad about the matter.After all, the chicken thief is the son of A Niang's older brother. If the other side refuses to give up, A Niang will not be able to offend her family again and again.But Dad is different, after what happened yesterday, Dad's impression of the chicken thief family is extremely bad, and he will definitely stand on his side.

Sure enough, when Dad heard about this, his face immediately grew longer.

"This Liu Hongxuan is too much! I just quarreled with them yesterday, and today the matchmaker came to the door. What does this mean? Can my daughter marry a thief?"

Seeing that father was very angry, mother first gave Mo Qianrui a look, and then she persuaded: "Speak less, I have already sent the matchmaker away. You are also, why did you go to my brother's house yesterday What kind of person is he, the big girl doesn’t know, don’t you? At the beginning, because of the usual dowry, what a mess it was! In the past, my mother was still there, so it’s fine to go and go, but now... ..."

Hearing what A Niang said, Dad was a little embarrassed, rubbing his hands and explaining: "Isn't there still some left over from selling kebabs yesterday? After all, it is your natal family, even if the old man is gone, he is still your brother. I thought, his family's situation is probably worse than ours, maybe it's been a long time since I ate meat. Sigh, how could I expect..."

"Forget it, you are also kind, but unfortunately my brother won't appreciate it. It's a pity that I didn't give him meat yesterday. If I did, maybe today he will drag his family to the door to eat." A Niang shook He shook his head and sighed again and again, "My brother was such a good person when he was young. Since my father passed away, he has changed. His wife is not a good person, and the dowry gift that was always money back then was also made by my sister-in-law. from."

"Every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite. It's okay to break the relationship in the future."

Listening to the conversation between his father and mother, Mo Qianrui's heart was full of gossip.then?What happened back then?This consistent money is a big iron coin of one thousand Wen, which can be exchanged for a full tael of silver, which is not a small amount of money.

Enduring and enduring, Mo Qianrui finally couldn't hold back, and asked out the doubts in his heart.

A Niang glared at her several times, but she didn't hide it from her. After all, it's not a secret whether it's in Yangliu Village or Liujiazhuang.

It turned out that in order to find a good marriage for Dad, Grandma had hired several matchmakers. It is said that even the matchmakers in the town had been invited.It's just that the Mo family has fallen, and those who have the background can know the truth after a little inquiring, and they are not willing to marry their daughters to suffer hardships.It also happened that A Niang's natal family used to be a big family, but like the Mo family, they all fell into decline.

The difference is that the Mo family's emaciated camel is bigger than a horse, while the Liu family's house is really barren.

In order for A Niang to marry a good family, grandma can be regarded as heartbroken.But the atmosphere here is all about dowry, without a decent dowry, it is impossible to get into a good marriage.In the Liu family at that time, not to mention saving dowry, even food and drink expenses became a problem.

After thinking about it, grandma really came up with a good idea, and that was cheating!
This Liu family, when grandpa was still alive, was still very respectable in Liujiazhuang.Besides, Liujiazhuang was more united than ordinary villages. Grandma came up with a way to cheat, and then begged other farmers not to expose her. Due to their affection, those farmers agreed.

So, grandma borrowed a house from the manager of the village, and also borrowed some decent clothes and some fine jewelry.After everything was ready, they let out the wind and waited for the arrival of the matchmaker.

Things went much smoother later on, the two families quickly changed the Geng Tie, Grandma collected the dowry gift of the usual money and chose a good day to send it over, and then counted the days to get married.

"Your grandma also did it. Usually when people get married, they give four-color cakes and a few pieces of cotton cloth. What about her? I'm afraid that her fake tricks will be exposed, and besides the basic dowry gifts, she also eagerly gave away all the money. Money in the past. Thinking of having this money as a base, even if people hear some gossip, they will think it is fake. The result? Tsk tsk."

Unexpectedly, Dad actually talked about this with a face of gloating, but Mo Qianrui was taken aback for a while.

A Niang patted him angrily: "It's all nonsense, isn't this expensive dowry to support me? Besides, the amount of the dowry doesn't matter at all. Whose daughter doesn't get married with the dowry plus the dowry? It's just my brother. That incomprehensible person, after hearing my sister-in-law's words, gave the dowry in a disregard of face. My mother was going crazy at the time, she thought I was a high-ranking Mo family, and it would have been ugly without a dowry She can't even keep the dowry, she's afraid that I will be abandoned by your family."

"Hugh? It's true to say otherwise, but my mother didn't think so at the time. She thinks that the dowry is expensive, and your dowry will definitely be heavy. Otherwise, how can you save face?" Smack your mouth, with a smile in your eyes, "She is looking forward to your dowry carrying several large boxes, preferably three or four times the dowry, and she will not dislike it if it is more. She has never thought about it, Your elder brother will not accept the dowry. I still remember her expression when she saw your dowry, hahaha!"

Mo Qianrui suddenly wanted to cover her face, she could completely imagine what it was like back then.

I wanted to deceive people, but in the end, I was deceived by others. I couldn't even return the betrothal gift I sent, let alone get another one. It was simply... The picture was so beautiful that she didn't dare to look at it.
