The joy of table tennis comes and goes quickly.
Even if Liu Gaoshu's racket was reworked, they would not be able to play table tennis for the time being.
Because one ball is equivalent to a workbook, which is very expensive.
Liu Gaoshu's family was well-off, but not yet able to afford table tennis freely. Later, Ren Tianan and Liu Gaoshu discussed it and the two pooled their money to buy a table tennis ball.
Zhang Nan's family was poor and they had no money to contribute, so he usually didn't join in the fun of playing ball. He just followed along when they were playing, and was happy just picking up the ball when they weren't playing.
Anyway, there was a little stir in the school during that week or two.
Not only their class, but people from other classes would also come to watch them play ball.
Wang Baojia even went home crying and asking for a pair of tennis rackets, but was defeated by Wang Sanbing and his "braised carp" friends.
On this day, when Wang Zhaozhao returned home from school, he discovered that not only Xie Ailian did not go to work, but Wang Dahai was also at home?
"Grandma, what good thing happened?" Wang Zhaozhao asked as he put down his schoolbag.
Nothing could be seen from Wang Dahai's side, but Xie Ailian was obviously in a good mood, and her whole body radiated a bright light.
Sure enough, when she asked, Xie Ailian hummed twice in satisfaction before saying, "Your second aunt and the matchmaker have come. Tomorrow we will go to Old Qiao's house to discuss your fourth uncle's marriage."
"Really?" Wang Zhaozhao was surprised when he heard it.
This is really great.
Fortunately, her worries were completely unnecessary.
"Hehe." Xie Ailian hummed twice again, expressing her satisfaction with Wang Zhaozhao's attitude. She took out a candy and stuffed it into her hand.
Wang Zhaozhao chuckled twice, ran to collect the urine he had held back, washed his hands, peeled the candy, but did not put it in his mouth. He took out a bowl, put the candy in the bowl, and poured a bowl of water.
There is only one candy. She can't be the only one slurping the candy while everyone is doing their homework together, right?
Not suitable.
Dissolve sugar in water and it becomes sugar water. Everyone takes a sip, hehe.
Xie Ailian and Wang Dahai watched without saying anything, but they felt extremely relieved.
In fact, there was more than one candy, but since Wang Zhaozhao did this, Xie Ailian went back to the house and put away the rest of the candies.
Giving one a day is actually not bad?
Wang Zhaozhao, who just didn't want to eat pig food, didn't know this, otherwise he might have regretted it.
When Wang Sibing came back, Wang Zhaozhao and the others had already finished their homework and it was dark.
He accompanied Wang Erju and the others to the town and went to see Luo Fugui by the way.
I'm coming to discuss the wedding tomorrow, and I have to bring some meat. But I can't be too stingy. I have to ask Luo Fugui to save a good piece for him.
"Alas, it's a pity that I have to go to school tomorrow..." Wang Zhaozhao said slowly while eating.
Xie Ailian glanced at her sideways, "What's wrong with not going to school? You still want to get involved in such a big thing?"
“…”
Wang Zhaozhao was speechless.
She didn't actually want to get involved, she was just curious and wanted to join in the fun.
"Grandma, have you decided on a rough date?" After a while, Wang Zhaozhao couldn't help but ask curiously.
"What's wrong with you, little girl?"
"Grandma, I was just wondering, how did you do that?"
Wang Zhaozhao pouted. Why did her grandmother always scold her for whatever she said?
Wang Sibing was watching with amusement from the side. After being slapped by Xie Ailian, he touched his nose and acted as if he was being obedient.
"I've looked at several dates. The closest one is the eighth day of next month, and the others will be three months later." Xie Ailian took the initiative to speak again.
Wang Zhaozhao was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. She showed the system that her grandmother was truly moody.
"The eighth day of next month would be great. The sooner the better for this kind of thing, since we can't have big weddings these days..."
"You're dreaming, but that requires the consent of the bride's family. If others want to prepare the dowry, we have to prepare it too."
“…”
OK! I got scolded again.
Wang Zhaozhao was used to being scolded and didn't take it seriously. "Grandma, don't think I'm a child who doesn't understand. After the engagement, the girl's family must have started preparing the dowry. Even if they're a little rushed, it won't be too much."
There are still thirty-two days until the eighth day of next month.
After she finished speaking, she received a thumbs-up from Wang Sibing.
Wang Sibing chuckled, "Anyway, I've been preparing. I have a sewing machine, a watch, and a radio ready for any occasion. I just haven't gotten a bicycle yet. Tickets for that thing are too hard to get. My father-in-law suggested that he buy it for me."
"What?"
Xie Ailian stood up suddenly, and Wang Dahai almost dropped his chopsticks in shock.
"You, you really bought all those things?" Xie Ailian's voice was full of doubt.
How much money would that be? Where would this guy get so much money? No... She, she didn't know what to think.
Wang Sibing said that nowadays when people get married, they have three rings and one turn, so of course he should have it too when he gets married.
As for where the money comes from? That goes without saying.
"Grandma, can you find a chance to help Fourth Uncle borrow some money from my uncle and the others?" Wang Zhaozhao looked at Xie Ailian, who was still a little dazed, and said in a low voice.
“Aren’t they all…” bought?
Wang Dahai interrupted Xie Ailian and said, "I'll call the three of them over to talk when I get back tomorrow."
Wang Zhaozhao didn't need to mention this matter. He had planned to call his sons over after returning from Yier Village tomorrow and ask them to express their opinions.
When they got married, they raised so many children for so many years with the combined efforts of their families. Now that they have separated, it is not unreasonable to ask them for a few dollars.
Although it is not necessary, it should still be mentioned.
