Chapter 3, Marriage

During the    period, Ruan Xiuqin, who has a junior high school culture, stopped by for a while. Later, she felt embarrassed when she saw some clips, so she walked out blushing.

evening.

   Zhang Xuan's eldest sister, Zhang Ping, is here to deliver food.

   Looking at this eldest sister who has a face like flowers and jade, but has not graduated from elementary school, Zhang Xuan feels very sorry for her.

   In his last life, two years after he graduated from college and started working, he received a call from his eldest sister. After a long time, he said that her wooden house had been set on fire, and she was going to build a new red brick house, and asked him to borrow 8,000 yuan.

   He was from the Moonlight Clan at that time, how could he borrow 8,000 yuan?

  Recalling the long silence before the eldest sister hung up the phone, Zhang Xuan felt that it was very uncomfortable. After reading the book by himself, he couldn't help his family, which was too useless.

  Rice is sweet potato rice, and the dish is stir-fried lettuce leaves with poached eggs.

   Knowing that her son does not like sweet potatoes, Ruan Xiuqin smashed all the sweet potato grains floating on the upper layer into her own bowl before sharing the meal, and gave him the rest of the white rice.

  Zhang Xuan watched all this silently, without resisting, he picked up the bowl and started to eat, but when the rice came into his mouth, he felt very sad, tears could not stop rolling in his eyes, and he wanted to cry.

Halfway through the meal, Ruan Xiuqin remembered something, took a bowl and walked to the window to look down. Finally, she stared at the plasterer squatting on the edge of the flower bed and asked, "Did Yang Ende send you here?"

   "Hmm." Zhang Ping was a little embarrassed, but she still responded with a loud voice.

   Hearing what Yang Ende sent, and seeing the shyness of the eldest sister, Zhang Xuan immediately felt that the meal was not delicious.

  Yang Ende, although he looks average, he is tall, diligent, not lazy, good at muddy work, very tolerant, never loses his temper, has no bad habits, and does not spend money indiscriminately. This is his advantage.

   But this man is a dutiful son, and a foolish dutiful son, who is obedient and obedient to his quarrelsome and mean mother.

   In the past life, the eldest sister got married, and the first three years were not bad, but after the first and second children were daughters, the situation was different.

   That Bo Liang's in-law mother picked on the eldest sister every three days, and the eldest sister was a **** off steamed bun. I cried a lot, and sometimes I would curse this old witch in my heart to die early, and then the life would be better, but the old witch lived 95 years, and she forced the eldest sister to become full of gray hair and died in front of her.

   For this matter, Ruan Xiuqin quarreled with the in-laws mother a lot.

   And where did Yang Ende go at this time?

   He became an invisible man, no one helped or intervened. He only did one thing silently, listened to his mother's words to control the family's financial power, and then, like giving out beggars, gave the eldest sister five yuan and ten yuan a month to buy meat and go to the market.

   Three or two steps to the window, he found the figure smoking Ye Yan, Zhang Xuan almost jumped up, grandma is a bear!

  I was your dog in my last life, but in this life you dare to come out!

  Look at me not giving up your sweet dreams!

  …

   finished dinner quietly, and watched the cow dung ride away on the 28th pole with flowers.

   Zhang Xuan asked, "Mom, are you really planning to betroth your eldest sister to Yang Ende?"

   Ruan Xiuqin sat beside the bed, unexpectedly glanced at her son who had never been involved in this matter before, raised her head and asked, "You don't seem to like him?"

  Zhang Xuanzhi nodded: "There are so many matchmakers in the village, why did you fall in love with the unremarkable Yang Ende?"

   Ruan Xiuqin thought for a while and said, "Actually, I prefer Ouyang Yong, who produced the third team. This girl is smart, looks good, and has good family conditions. Their family is very satisfied with your sister.

   It's just that your eldest sister has not been very smart since she was a child, and her head has been hit by a truck again, so it's not as easy as before. "

Speaking of this, Ruan Xiuqin paused and continued: "I'm afraid your sister is stupid, and after following Ouyang Yong, you won't be able to keep him in the future, and it will end up in vain. Yang Ende is different, although their family is famous in the village. He is stingy and stingy, but he is down-to-earth and hardworking, and he is a person who lives a real life."

   Speaking of eldest sister being stupid, Zhang Xuan didn't know how to refute it.

  Because this sister is really stupid in reading, let's not say that she has passed the fifth grade. In the entrance examination for elementary school to junior high school, other teachers would not let her take the test, and let her stay in the classroom to guard the door, worried that her single-digit score would lower the average score and affect the school's ranking.

   At this point, Ruan Xiuqin has been stumped for more than ten years and has not yet figured it out: Why is the second and third child so clever? The boss is so different?

   Sometimes Ruan Xiuqin can't help but think, is the second and third child following her? Is the eldest's gene inherited from her husband?

   But speaking of Ouyang Yong, Zhang Xuan's memory came out at once. This man followed the lead of his village director father, who likes mousse, likes white shirts, trousers and leather shoes, and pays more attention to self-dressing. In these days, it is not false to look like a romantic embryo.

   But looking at people really can’t look at appearances. People slapped the villagers in the face with a lifetime of actions, proving what is a wife-loving madman and what is a good man. His wife is not as good as Zhang Ping in every way.

   did not argue with Ruan Xiuqin, Zhang Xuanjing asked after a while: "You always look at Zhongyang Ende, but in fact, you want him to help the family do farm work in the future, right?"

Seeing that her son had guessed her own Xiao Jiujiu, Ruan Xiuqin did not refute, and said in a low voice, "I am not very healthy, so I can't do heavy work. You will go out to study in the future. Your second sister resents me for not sending her to repeat the study. I will come back, the fields at home can’t be wasted, and I need a farmer.”

   Come on, I expect Yang Ende to help you do farm work, it's better to expect the sow to go up to the tree, Zhang Xuan secretly complained, but didn't say it.

   Because he couldn't tell her what was going to happen in the next few decades.

   In addition, my mother struggled for decades in the countryside at the bottom of the society. Some insights and ideas are limited to this era, so I can’t blame her, and I can’t change her spiritually.

  Around 6:30 p.m., the doctor came to the ward and checked Zhang Xuan's condition. He said to Ruan Xiuqin, "I'm recovering very well. I can be discharged after two more days of observation."

   This is really great news, Ruan Xiuqin breathed a sigh of relief and quickly expressed her gratitude.

   Instead, Zhang Xuan asked: "Doctor, can I be discharged from the hospital tomorrow? I haven't showered for several days."

  The doctor was stunned for a while, his eyes swept back and forth between the two, and seemed to understand Zhang Xuan's thoughts and save money. Hospitalization costs too much.

No embarrassment, the kind doctor can understand their suffering, so he pondered for a while and said, "It's not impossible. But you still have to come to the hospital tomorrow and the day after, let me check the situation. You can take the rest of the medicine back to the village. If you feel unwell, you should come to the hospital in time, don't ask."

   "Hey, good." Zhang Xuan wanted to be discharged from the hospital for a long time, but because of his mother's concern and stubbornness, he didn't force it. Now the doctor is relieved, and his mood is suddenly much better.

   Hearing that his son made his own decision and reached an agreement with the doctor, Ruan Xiuqin, who was beside him, opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything. The family owes a lot of debt, save one if you can save one.

   This evening, Zhang Xuan continued to write for other urban newspapers.

   Ruan Xiuqin carefully packed her things and prepared for her discharge from the hospital tomorrow.

   The night passed, the face of God changed, the sunny day was gone, the north wind was blowing, and it was raining and snowing.

  Snowflakes smashed down from the sky, and the ground was covered with layers.

  I ate a few cold noodles and steamed buns with pickled vegetables for breakfast, and they were done in a hurry. After the operation, the mother and son left the hospital.

  Things are worthless, but they are many, complicated and annoying. Zhang Xuan felt like a beekeeper at the moment, with buckets, quilts and kettles hanging all over his body like bees.

   Walking is melancholy.

   It seems that she can't see her son's hard work. Ruan Xiuqin, who is also empty, stretched her head to look at the way she came from. She didn't see Zhang Ping, nor did she see the tall man Yang Ende, and suddenly sighed.

   Ruan Xiuqin blamed herself and said, "I shouldn't have saved the money for this phone call last night. It would be great to call your sister to pick you up. Your sister is thick and durable."

   Mom, this preference is a bit too much. Zhang Xuan squeezed a smile silently and said, "It's okay, I can handle it."

  The original plan was to go to the post office to get the money order first, but the two of them couldn’t go there and had to give up.

   As the New Year is approaching, there are more and more people going to the market on the street, and more and more people buying and selling New Year's goods. One after another, the sound of hawking was very lively.
