The dowry is down, and then as long as Uncle Liang finds an auspicious day, let him write the birthday of Zhang Qingzhu and the date of marriage on red paper, and send it to the Zhang family, commonly known as the sending day. After doing this step, I am waiting to become a parent.
Liang Han was not very clear about the various customs and rules of becoming a relative, but fortunately he had the help of Uncle Liang's family. He handed everything over to the two couples, Liang Zhi became a relative in June, and it was time to be busy preparing for the affair, just as the two were preparing together.
Therefore, after being hired, Liang Han returned home psychologically and easily. The Zhang family is not easy here, Wang Shi really did not expect that she had shirked the money, and her mother-in-law actually said that she had taken a fancy to a blue cloth in the dowry. It really made her angry, but in the end she could only promise to give her the cloth.
"Thanks to her being able to open this mouth!" Wang Shi was really angry, in the past, what her mother-in-law did, as a daughter-in-law, it was not good to comment much, and her husband was filial piety, and it was not interesting to say it. But this time is different, although the dowry can be left behind, most people will make the cloth in the dowry into new clothes for the children as a dowry. Some concerned people will also look specifically to see if the new daughter-in-law's clothes have any cloth they sent over, if not, even the mother's family will be disliked.
"Alas!" Father Zhang also felt that his mother had gone a little too far, not to mention that there were such almost conventional rules, not to mention that the situation in their family had to make face for their younger son. As a result, his mother actually wanted the cloth in the dowry. But she is the elder...
Wang Shi couldn't swallow this breath, and it was okay to bully her in the past, but now it was about her children. Who knew that Liang Hanjie didn't mind, even if Liang Hanjie didn't mind, she couldn't let her younger son bear this matter in vain.
Wang Shi's face was angry: "Qingyuan you come!"
"Mother, what's the matter?" Zhang Qingyuan was not happy in his heart, his grandmother had always been partial to the children of his uncle's family, Xiao Zhu became such a big thing, she could even open her mouth to ask for cloth, he was really angry. But he was a junior, and he couldn't even complain in front of outsiders. What a suffocation!
Wang Shi said with a cold face, "Go and take out the cloth that your grandmother asked for and send it to her."
Zhang Qingyuan was a little reluctant: "Mother, really send it?"
"Send! Can I not send it? If you don't send it tomorrow, you can use another excuse to scold us for filial piety! Wang's face was full of anger, "You go and send!" Every time people tell them, your grandmother took a fancy to the cloth in the small bamboo dowry and she opened her mouth and said that she liked it, we Xiaozhu filial piety, naturally we must take it out to honor her grandmother! "Let everyone in the village listen!"
Zhang Qingyuan felt that this was still a relief, and then looked at his father. His father had always been filial piety, and his grandmother's affairs let them let them go. Doing so would obviously embarrass Grandma, and his dad didn't know if he would agree.
Father Zhang felt that it was a little bad to do this, but he looked at his wife with an angry face, and then looked at his young son who was standing outside the door and did not come in, and he was silent.
Seeing that the old father agreed, Zhang Qingyuan happily did it. Seeing that the younger brother was worried and angry, he told him what his mother asked him to do, "You are not suitable for following this." I'll just do it myself.
Zhang Qingyuan comforted him: "Don't worry about the cloth, when the time comes, we will buy the same horse, and ensure that Liang Han will not say anything."
Zhang Qingzhu didn't think Liang Han would be angry with him because of the cloth: "I don't worry about that, Liang Han will worry about a piece of cloth with me." "Dozens of dollars have been given to him casually, who cares about a piece of cloth."
Seeing that the younger brother said so confidently, Zhang Qingyuan had mixed feelings: "In the future, long dim sum eyes, cure him to death, let him listen to everything, know no."
Zhang Qingzhu felt that his fourth brother was too small to look at himself: "What a long heart, he listens to me now." "Why bother so much?"
"You just have the confidence." Zhang Qingyuan went to get the cloth and prepared to have a good chat with the people he met on the road.
The next day.
As soon as the little stone woke up, he went to see his chicks and ducklings, because they were still hairy and easy to attract weasels, so they were hung in baskets on the beams at night. But this does not necessarily prevent weasels from stealing chickens.
Therefore, when he saw that there was another missing chicken, Xiao Shi was very frustrated: "Uncle Liang, it is useless to hang on the beam, there is another chicken." Those weasels are so bad, what to do?
Liang Han also felt helpless, before he put it down and was stolen, hanging on the beam and was stolen, "It seems that you still have to keep a dog." "He had asked Uncle Liang to help him find a dog before, and at that time, he also took a fancy to the cubs under Zhang Dongcheng's family hunting dogs, but unfortunately he didn't want it a step too late." I have always asked Uncle Liang to help inquire who has wolf dog cubs, and now it seems that it is also necessary to raise a native dog first.
Little Stone: "Can a dog be defended?"
"Yes, dog-eared spirit, the weasel will bark when he comes in."
"Have a dog, or the chickens and ducklings will be lost." Xiao Shi looked at these cute treasures of his own, and he still had to raise eggs.
"Okay, I'll go find only one today."
Because Zhang Qingzhu said that he would come to him today, Liang Han did not go out after breakfast. As he was about to go to the backyard to continue perfecting his pigsty, Uncle Liang came in.
Uncle Liang glanced at the back of the courtyard: "Little Han, what is the pigsty made?" I went to pull you the pig cub the other day. "One more thing. Thanks to Xiao Zhi them. "Because the smell of raising pigs must be very heavy, but you can't build a pigsty outside, so that thieves will be troublesome." Therefore, Liang Han chose to build the pigsty in the backyard.
However, his backyard was not big enough, and Liang Han thought of adding another section to the back, as long as he opened another door on the back wall. This will also be more spaced out and won't be too affected in the summer.
He was not familiar with the work of building a pigsty, so he cheekily found Liang Zhi and the second and third sons of Uncle Liang's family and helped repair them together. As for the relationship between the original owner and Uncle Liang's children? Liang Han is still quite confident in his personality charm, it doesn't matter if he doesn't have feelings, he has it everywhere.
Uncle Liang went to the backyard to take a look, and he still didn't quite understand Liang Han's behavior of adding another yard in the back. The front yard is big, and it is not very convenient to build a pigsty there: "Look at it is almost the same." Then I'll pull the piglets for you, are you ready to feed the pigs? "It's all ready. Uncle, you wait, I'll go get you the money.
Liang Han gave the money bag to Uncle
Liang: "Here are five pieces of money, Uncle you help me pick some stronger piglets." Or as I said before, there are ten in total, eight sows, and two boars. "He's going to raise it first, and if that goes well, he can buy some piglets."
Uncle Liang still couldn't help but ask again: "Are you really sure you have so many of them?" It's a bit risky. "If there is a famine year, money can buy grain, but pigs cannot exchange it for grain."
Liang Han was very sure: "Rest assured, I have a bottom in my heart about this." "He is short of nothing now. They all said that they did not panic when they had grain in their hands, and he really did not panic at all.
Seeing that Liang Han was still so sure that he had confidence, Uncle Liang stopped saying again: "That line, I will go with Xiao Zhi, and I will soon be able to pull you back." You guys hurry up and fix the pigsty.
After Uncle Liang left, Liang Han went to the backyard to continue building a pigsty. After a while, Liang Xingrong and Liang Wenqing came.
Liang Xingrong, a man with a cheerful personality, began to work after he arrived: "There is not much left, it can be built in one morning." He looked at the pigsty in front of him, the enlarged backyard was no smaller than the
front yard, and this pigsty was built to almost occupy the entire backyard: "Brother Lobby, the pigsty is so big, how many pigs are you planning to raise?"
"Raise ten heads first." He planned not to raise so many pigs the first time, and if there was an increase in the future, he would raise up to sixteen pigs. The main reason is that the backyard is not large enough, and it is not enough to raise more. And he has no experience in raising pigs, saving experience in the first year. If he really raises it well, he doesn't mind being a big pig farmer.
Liang Xingrong was surprised: "There are so many at one time, so you have to add grain to feed, right?" Playing pig grass is also too busy.
Liang Wenqing was also very surprised, and it could be seen from this that his lobby brother was really quite rich. Ten piglets is a lot of money. If you dare to raise so much, you must have confidence.
"Well, I'm going to feed with food. Try it first, and if you can do it, add it later. While Liang Han was busy with the work in his hand, he said to the two people, "Thanks to your help, this pigsty can be built so fast." Today is free, eat at noon in the brother, I whole a few dishes, let's drink two cups.
Liang Xingrong was not polite to him: "That feeling is good, the wine of the cousin's family must be fragrant!"
Liang Wenqing was shy and didn't say anything, but with his brother naturally staying for lunch.
At noon, Liang Han warmly welcomed the brothers, made six dishes, ate a good meal, and gave them a lot of vegetables before leaving. Now most people don't have any vegetables to eat, and turnip cabbage is also rare.
Zhang Qingzhu came in the afternoon, because he felt that the afternoon time was longer, and he could stay longer with Liang Han.
When he came to Liang Han, he immediately noticed the difference: "Hey, how come there are two more puppies?" Seeing the little stone standing next to the two puppies, he walked over, "This is a normal little earth dog, right?"
Xiao Shi squatted down and touched the puppy, very happy: "It was Uncle Liang who found it." Let the puppy see the chicks and ducklings, the weasel always came to steal my chicks and ducklings, and bit two of them. It's disgusting! There are puppies in the weasel and dare not come. "Weasels are really disgusting. Steal chicks, and half-sized chicks will also be stolen. It is better to have dogs, these two are too small, and they do not play much of a role now. Zhang Qingzhu also had this experience of raising chickens and ducklings when he was a child, and one year his chicks almost died, and he was almost dead.
"Is it useless?" The little rocks were a bit worried.
Zhang Qingzhu comforted: "It's okay, the puppy grows very fast, it will grow older in more than a month." In fact, the most feared thing is that the half-sized chicken and duckling are stolen is a pity. By that time, the puppy had grown up and was not afraid of weasels.
Xiao Shi: "Well, well, I'll ask Uncle Liang to put a lid on the basket and tie it with a hemp rope to see how the weasel opens the lid."
Liang Han came out of the backyard and smiled, "Here it comes."
Zhang Qingzhu saw him coming out from behind and asked curiously, "Is your pigsty built?"
Xiao Shi said, "Uncle Xiaozhu, Uncle Liang bought a lot of piglets today." It's fun, I'll show you.
Zhang Qingzhu asked Liang Han, "Have you bought a good pig?"
"Buy it. Ten, uncle helped me pick one, each very spiritual. "Say take him to the backyard to see the pigs."
Zhang Qingzhu looked at the ten piglets who were lying together or walking around, "I really bought so much!" These piglets look good. He looked into the trough and saw that it was wheat bran and cabbage gangs.
"You feed the pigs vegetables?" At this time, everyone's winter vegetables are almost finished, and now they can only dig wild vegetables to eat. When everyone digs, there are so many wild vegetables to dig. Liang Han's pig actually had cabbage to eat.
Liang Han explained: "My family has a lot of cabbage. Shall I send some to your house?" Now that we are also engaged, it is also justified to send things. A few days ago, he secretly went to the village under the jurisdiction of the county town next door to sell it for a day, for two pounds of money, and earned more than three hundred yuan a day. But this trip to Liang Han took two days, and half of it was still spent on the road.
But he planned to run to another place and sell the dishes in the space. Good at this time, only cabbage and radish can be sold, and they can be sold. It's just too cheap.
Zhang Qingzhu: "Is there really that much?" "He really doesn't have any food to eat.
Liang Han: "Really, there are still a lot of radish pickles, and when I leave, I'll get you a jar." Shall I take you to the cellar to see? "He really put a lot of cover in the cellar.
Zhang Qingzhu went to look at it and found that there were still most of the cabbage in the cellar: "Why do you still have so many vegetables left?"
"As much as I save, as much as I can eat with the little stone." Liang Han took the sack and began to put it in, "Fill you with a bag to eat first, and when you finish eating, tell me, don't be polite." "If nothing else, he has more dishes," and after more than half a month, he will be able to eat new dishes.
Zhang Qingzhu saw that he had so many cabbage turnips and was not polite to him: "Good, I want it." "And they are all betrothed, and it is not a big deal to receive Liang Han's things."
Liang Han carried a bag of vegetables out of the cellar, "By the way, what happened to you yesterday?" Could it be that something happened? "It's not a big deal." Zhang Qingzhu told him, and he also vented the sullen breath in his heart: "My grandmother has always been the most eccentric uncle, and she despises my father the most." Originally, we didn't want to worry about it so much, after all, the parents of the separated parents were all with the eldest son, just when they were for the sake of the great uncle after the separation of the family, they could be more filial to them. Anyway, it doesn't matter how angry they are. But my big uncle is not a good thing, always like to use my grandmother's name to scrape things from us, but my mother is also the master of taking advantage, and their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law do not know how good it is.
Zhang Qingzhu was a little angry: "You don't know, if my family eats some meat, I have to send half of it to the uncle's family." Once our family stewed a chicken to supplement my father's body, but I didn't send it to them. The next day, the eldest uncle said that the old lady who ate chicken in our family did not catch a bite. Originally, everyone would listen to my great uncle's mouth, but then my grandmother actually came to the door and scolded my father. She didn't say it was because she hadn't eaten meat, but she said that she was not in good health two days ago, and no one in our family went to ask to see her. It is said that our children and grandchildren are not filial piety, that without her, there is no my father, and without my father, there is us. I was almost mad to death, but I couldn't do anything with her.
"They are elders and I can't do anything with them." But I don't suffer this loss. Zhang Qingzhu said a little proudly, "I turned around and beat up her precious grandson." She didn't care about our brothers, but the baby was expensive. Anyway, as soon as she found my stubble, I went to beat Tiangui, Tiangui is not a good thing, and I can beat him.
Liang Han looked at his proud little appearance and laughed: "Haha - you are powerful."
Zhang Qingzhu was also proud of his idea: "That is, my uncle's family is not as many as my son." Tim Gui is not my opponent at all, even if he asks his brother to help, my brother is more. Therefore, as soon as they find the stubble, I will beat Tiangui, and if they do something strong, I will beat them badly. Even if my grandmother came to me to settle the account, it was useless, as soon as I saw them coming, I ran first. Anyway, my mother said in front of them that I was not two sentences and would not punish me for Tiangui at all. I'm not afraid.
Liang Han smiled: "Then what is the reason for this time?"
"It's about you too." Zhang Qingzhu was a little resentful, "Why didn't you tell me that you want to send so much money?" My father didn't ask about the appointment money because he opened his mouth before, no matter how much you sent, but you sent so much to say in advance. In front of the woman's face, can she not take advantage?
Liang Han was a little surprised: "She even has the idea of hiring money?" Don't want a face at all? "She's not stupid. She didn't come forward on her own, she let my grandmother do it. It's not easy to ask for money, just pretend to be sick. Zhang Qingzhu was very upset, "Anyway, she doesn't care about that old face, nothing can be done." As soon as my mother heard that you gave so much money for hiring, she didn't dare to stay a little longer, and immediately asked my fifth brother and seventh brother to take it to the city to add something to me.
Liang Han sighed a little, "I really didn't expect these things in your family." You haven't told me anything about your uncle's family. "
"Their house is so annoying, I don't bother to mention it." Zhang Qingzhu was a little sorry, "My mother bought me all the money, and I originally wanted her to leave some for the family." Zhang Qingzhu said this but did not mind Liang Handuo thinking, the money was originally for the mother's family.
After saying that, Zhang Qingzhu was angry again: "You don't know how annoying they are, they can't get money, and they even want cloth with us." It's the blue cloth you dowry.
Liang Han was also a little speechless, the blue cloth was specially selected by him to make clothes for Zhang Qingzhu. He had heard Aunt Liang talk about this custom, and he really didn't expect Zhang Qingzhu's grandmother to open her mouth to ask for cloth, which was much more than taking her grandson seriously.
"My mother made the whole village aware of this, and my father did not object." My grandmother should be embarrassed to go out these days. Zhang Qingzhu was a little happy, his father did not let them let go of his grandmother this time, which was enough for him to be happy.
Liang Han knew that people here attached more importance to filial piety, and also understood that Zhang Qingzhu's grandmother was doing it again, and in Zhang Laopa's heart, this was the mother who gave birth to him and raised him. Without her and without herself, it is all right to let her respect. However, this old lady should have done too much, and Father Zhang must have some dissatisfaction in his heart, and it involved the child, so Father Zhang stood on the side of the child this time.
Looking at Zhang Qingzhu because of this, Liang Han felt that it was really not easy enough.
Zhang Qingzhu said that after the incident that he was holding in his heart, there was nothing to do: "What are you going to do in the afternoon?"
Liang Han: "I'm going to pack up the vegetable garden and plant some vegetables."
Zhang Qingzhu was a little disgusted: "Your vegetable garden is not yet cleaned up." My family's vegetables are already planted. "I'm in the whole pen these days." Such a big pigsty is also very troublesome. Liang Han smiled, "Since you have come here, you can help me clean it up together, my family's vegetable garden will be yours in a short time."
"Let me work, I knew I wouldn't come to you." Having said that, Zhang Qingzhu also picked up the hoe, "What are you going to plant?" "Grow some leeks and coriander, and small cabbage..." Liang Han said as he walked outside with Zhang Qingzhu, whose vegetable garden was just outside the courtyard wall. Just a corner out the door.
Zhang Qingzhu looked at the open space in front of him, just like this: "How long has your vegetable garden been deserted?"
"It used to be planted somewhere else." Liang Han smiled and said, "I just finished pulling out the grass yesterday, how about it, look clean, right?"
Zhang Qingzhu really believed that Liang Han had a vegetable garden elsewhere: "It's okay, this open space is not small, first loosen the soil." Where are the straws you put in the fence? If you were to sow seeds today, you would have to tie the fence first, or the chickens would give you a nagging. "I can't plant it today." Shall we tie the fence first? "The chickens in the village are all free-range, so everyone's vegetable garden is very tight, so it is not necessarily possible to prevent the chickens that can fly to the tung tree." Therefore, most chickens cut the feathers on their wings, but some families do not cut them.
Zhang Qingzhu agreed: "Okay, first fence the fence." You go get some sorghum poles, and I'll dig the pit over here. Xiao Shi arranged for his chicken and duckling to also run out, seeing that Zhang Qingzhu was alone: "Uncle Xiaozhu, what about Uncle Liang?"
"He went to look for sorghum poles." Zhang Qingzhu was digging the ditch, and after a while he was digging a fence, and saw that the two puppies also followed out, "Raise these two dogs well, and when the time comes to kiss you." "There are not many people in the village who have dogs, after all, chickens can find their own food to eat, and dogs have to be fed." And the dogs eat a lot. Liang Han actually raised two at once.
"Well, I'll take care of them." Little Stone likes puppies, and the earth dog looks round and fat when he was a child.
