Cheng Qiu Kui was wearing a red suit skirt and a red silk flower in her hair. The large silk flower had long, transparent branches with strings of small red silk flowers on them.
These silk flowers are so large that they cover almost half of one's head.
In those days, Western-style suits were the most fashionable, and ordinary people, regardless of gender, would wear green military uniforms to their weddings.
If you're going to be more sophisticated, wearing a red overcoat, like Cheng Qiu Kui's stylish red suit skirt, will definitely make you the most fashionable person on the street!
People passing by would turn around to look, and even mischievous children would surround her and call her "bride."
Cheng Xiao Kui was very satisfied with her sister's outfit; at least for the New Year, it was definitely an enviable look.
However, she was very dissatisfied with the woman who followed behind Cheng Qiu Kui on a bicycle into the yard.
Song Wenhui glared fiercely at Cheng Qiuqiu and Du Ziqiang.
She demanded, "You brat, where did you go back to today for your homecoming? Luckily, I'm smart enough to come and check on you, otherwise I'd still be waiting at home like an idiot for my daughter to come back and acknowledge her family!"
Cheng Qiuqiu said coldly, "Anyway, it's just going back to my parents' home, so I'll go back to my sister's home!"
Song Wenhui raised her hand to slap Cheng Qiu Kui.
Standing next to Cheng Qiuqiu, Du Ziqiang swiftly grabbed Song Wenhui's wrist.
He asked coldly, "What are you doing? How dare you hit my wife?!"
Song Wenhui shouted, her neck stiff, "She's my daughter, I gave birth to her, I can hit her if I want, I can strangle her if I want!"
Du Ziqiang shoved Song Wenhui backward with great force. Song Wenhui stumbled back a few steps and almost fell to the ground.
Du Ziqiang said coldly, "Okra is married to me, so she's a daughter-in-law of the Du family! You dare to lay a finger on a daughter-in-law of the Du family!"
Song Wenhui jumped up and down and cursed, "What? Did you give me the 'three turns and one sound' dowry for your daughter-in-law? You only gave me 2,000 yuan as a dowry. Are you trying to renege on the 'three turns and one sound'?"
"You're not taking my daughter away today unless you hand over the 'three turns and one sound' (referring to a radio, sewing machine, and bicycle)!"
Du Ziqiang was completely bewildered by the question; he had already bought the three turns and one sound long ago!
The "three turns and one sound" refer to a watch, a sewing machine, a bicycle, and a dual cassette recorder.
The watch was on Cheng Qiu Kui's wrist. The bicycle, sewing machine, and double cassette recorder were all placed in their new house for the young couple to use.
He took Cheng Qiu Kui's hand and said, "The watch is on my wife's wrist! I bought her an Omega!"
Song Wenhui didn't know anything about watch brands; the only brands she was familiar with were Seagull and the like.
She exclaimed, "What? You put it on her? This watch is for my son's wedding! You brat, take it off!"
Cheng Xiaokui said, "Stop arguing! This one was bought by Du Ziqiang for my sister, it's for my sister. Yours is in my room, I'll get it for you!"
She turned and went back to her room to get her things.
Cheng Chun Kui followed Cheng Xiao Kui inside and helped Cheng Xiao Kui push the sewing machine.
A sewing machine has wheels, so you can push it around.
Soon, the sound of a sewing machine whirring filled the courtyard.
Cheng Xiaokui said, "This is a watch, this is a double cassette recorder, this is a sewing machine, the sewing machine is a Peony brand, and there's a bicycle in the kitchen, I'll push it out for you, it's a Phoenix brand!"
These brands were all purchased according to Song Wenhui's requirements.
Song Wenhui looked at the three turns and one sound that had been pushed out; the signs and items were all there.
She grumbled, "I bought the things, aren't you going to deliver them to my house? Didn't we agree to deliver them to my house?!"
Send it to me now! There's so much stuff, how can I carry it all by myself?
Du Ziqiang didn't understand what was going on. He walked over to Cheng Xiaokui and asked in a low voice, "What happened? Did you buy a set of three watches and one radio by yourself?"
Cheng Xiaokui said in the same voice, "This has nothing to do with you, it's a matter between me and my mother."
But I'd like to trouble you to take these things to my mother. I don't have a car here to carry all this stuff.
Du Ziqiang said, "There's no problem with that. Just load the stuff into my jeep and I'll take it over to her!"
Cheng Xiao Kui and Du Zi Qiang loaded the things into the jeep together.
Cheng Qiuqiu was worried about Du Ziqiang going alone, fearing that her mother would make things difficult for him again, so she sat in the passenger seat and went with him.
Cheng Chun Kui was worried about Cheng Xiao Kui, so she sat in the back seat with Cheng Xiao Kui.
Du Ziqiang drove his car, carrying his belongings and people, straight to Song Wenhui's house.
Song Wenhui pedaled her bicycle very fast, walking through the alley. Her speed was no slower than that of a car. When she reached her doorstep, she could see cars winding into the alley from afar.
She proudly raised her head and shouted at the top of her lungs, "Look, my third daughter is going back to her parents' home! My third daughter is going back in a jeep!"
Hearing Song Wenhui's voice, the neighbors all came out to see what was going on.
From afar, Cheng Xiaokui could see the single "double happiness" character pasted on Song Wenhui's front door.
In their area, when a daughter gets married, they put up a single "happiness" character; when a daughter gets married, they put up a double "happiness" character.
However, the person who came out of the large wooden door surprised her.
Cheng Qiuqiu was also taken aback. Pointing in astonishment at the people walking out of the courtyard gate, she exclaimed, "Sister, look! Why are Grandma and Second Aunt coming out of the courtyard? Did my mom call Grandma, Second Aunt, and Second Uncle?"
Cheng Xiao Kui said, "Don't doubt your eyes, I saw it too. It looks like she called her second uncle's family and grandma."
Cheng Qiuqiu said indignantly, "How have Grandma and my second uncle's family treated us? Has she lost her mind? Why did she invite them over?"
Cheng Xiao Kui said, "I guess she wants to show off now that our family has turned things around! Ha! She's brainless but still tries to be clever like others? Isn't she afraid of being turned on by Grandma and her second uncle's family!"
Cheng Qiuqiu said, "Thank goodness I got married, I'll never have to come back again! I've had enough of this family. When I was little, my grandma would slap me whenever she was unhappy, and my second aunt would trip me up and hit me with a broom for no reason!"
She felt that ever since Cheng Xiao Kui went to the countryside, she had become the family's punching bag. She had to do all the work and endure all the anger. If she was unhappy, anyone could beat her up!
Du Ziqiang said, "They're not good to you? That's easy, just treat them the same way they treated you!"
Cheng Qiuqiu said, "You have no idea how capable they are. Let's put the things down and leave!"
Du Ziqiang grabbed Cheng Qiuqiu's hand and said, "What are you afraid of? You used to be alone, but now you have a man. With a man backing you up, you should stand tall!"
Cheng Xiao Kui and Cheng Chun Kui sat in the back seat, and their faces twitched almost imperceptibly. They felt as if they had been fed a huge bowl of dog food!
The two sisters looked at each other, realizing that the charade had become real. They didn't believe that the two were a nominal couple in a fake marriage!
Du Ziqiang led Cheng Qiuqiu out of the car.
The second aunt immediately called her son and daughter to ask for red envelopes!
This time she absolutely needs two big red envelopes to bite Cheng Qiu Kui and Du Zi Qiang to death!
