Seeing their old mother being scolded, Uncle Luo and Uncle Luo Third stood up, slammed the table and glared at the scoundrel.

The team leader had just received the five yuan matchmaking gift, and before he could even warm it up, he immediately stood up to take charge of the event.

"Everyone, stop talking. They're hosting a wedding banquet and giving you guys a lot of food to eat. They're not here to watch you quarrel."

"I'm telling you, I borrowed these dishes from every household. If anyone dares to break or damage them, you will have to pay for it yourself."

Zhang Guifen was serving sweet potato rice to someone else, and at this moment she raised her spoon and yelled:

"Whoever makes trouble at my son's wedding banquet, I will make him spit out what he ate."

With this two-pronged approach, people became obedient.

Maintaining superficial harmony until the end.

Everyone in Wangshan Brigade ate till they were full and praised the banquet as being very well organized. Not only was there meat on each table, but there was also a fish.

However, some people were jealous and discussed secretly:

"Where do you think Lu Jiuchuan bought so much fish and meat? Was it from the black market?"

"You can't just say that. Black market trading will result in prison."

"They have their own ways to get it, we just need to eat it to satisfy our hunger, why should we care so much?"

Luo Qianyu listened and silently took note of it.

Now that individual businesses have not been officially opened up, she still has to remind Lu Jiuchuan.

After the team leader organized the women to help clean up and wash dishes, they returned all the borrowed dishes and chopsticks.

When handing over the gift money to Zhang Guifen, Zhang Guifen also gave him half a pound of meat and two bottles of wine.

"This time, thanks to the captain's busy work, everything was done well."

The captain pretended to refuse, then took it with a red face.

Luo Qianyu and Lu Jiuchuan returned to their bridal chamber, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment.

"Um, Luo Qianyu, I'll go see if there's anything else I can help with in the kitchen. You can take a nap."

Luo Qianyu was indeed tired, so he decided to put the black market matter aside until the evening and nodded in agreement.

She slept until night, and Lu Siman came to call her to have dinner.

The adults of the family were sitting formally at the dining table, while the children had finished eating and were left to play.

Apart from the leftovers from lunch, there were sweet potatoes and sweet potato porridge on the table.

Luo Qianyu really had no appetite.

Zhang Guifen showed her wrinkled and disgusted expression again, and used the spoon she used to share food with the children to push a piece of white fat meat into her bowl:

"At my house, eating is not so particular. Just take whatever's on the table. I feel uncomfortable seeing you like a bean sprout."

"Mom." Lu Jiuchuan called her, took the fat meat from Luo Qianyu's bowl and replaced it with a piece of lean meat. "She doesn't eat fat meat."

Now Zhang Guifen felt even more disgusted.

"What's so good about lean meat? It's dry and has no fat or water. You're so picky about food even though you're so grown up. No wonder you're so skinny and small."

Luo Qianyu thought about his own figure and didn't think it was that bad.

Now she is less than two centimeters away from 1.6 meters in height. Thinness means the skinny look that people in later generations pursue, and her little bun has developed, not a flat chest.

She felt that she still had potential.

Lu Jiuchuan said what she wanted to say at this time:

"She's only eighteen, she just needs to grow taller. Mom, if you can't stand her being skinny, just do something nice for her."

Luo Qianyu followed suit:

"Yes, I will be fine if I grow taller."

Zhang Guifen gave her a piece of meat that was half fat and half lean, and also gave her a sweet potato:

"It's okay to eat half fat and half lean, and eat more sweet potatoes. Look at Achuan and the others, they eat a lot of sweet potatoes and they are all tall."

"It should be able to grow a little bit, but you have to eat hard too."

After saying that, he looked at Luo Qianyu with burning eyes, as if waiting for her to eat the piece of meat.

Just when she was in a dilemma, Lu Siman took the piece of meat away again.

"Mom, big brother, I told you that you favor your sister-in-law, do you have any objections?"

"I'm still in junior high school, and I'm growing up. Why don't you give me some?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Zhang Guifen put on a look of disgust again.

"Why are you eating so much? You're only fourteen and you're taller than your sister-in-law. Girls can't get married if they're too tall."

"Back then, your mom and I were tall, so we had to search for a long time before we found your dad, who was barely suitable. Otherwise, with your grandma's condition, who would want to marry me?"

Lu Siman made another joke, saying that she married her father because he was handsome, otherwise why would she and her brother look so good.

The Lu Jiuchuan brothers didn't talk much, but the atmosphere was very harmonious.

Luo Qianyu looked at the whole family and found them quite interesting. They ate more than usual.

There was no electricity in the brigade, and there was no entertainment after dinner. We basically just chatted and then went to bed early.

But Luo Qianyu felt a little nervous when he thought about sleeping.

Tonight is their wedding night. Are she and Lu Jiuchuan going to have the wedding ceremony?

In this era, many people get married and live together through introductions without ever having met each other, but she, a soul from the future, really couldn't accept it.

Zhang Guifen urged them to go back to their room:

"Come on, I'll go with you. I have something to tell you."

Luo Qianyu and Lu Jiuchuan followed her and returned to the new house carrying a kerosene lamp.

She pulled up a square chair and sat down, and asked the two of them to sit in the **.

Then he took out the small cloth bag containing money from his waist and started to light the money under the kerosene lamp.

"You are officially married today. You will have to manage your own little family in the future. I don't want to be an annoying mother-in-law."

"The total amount of gift money we received today is 21.30 yuan. Take it, Ayu. You can repay the favors you have received when the time comes."

"In addition, Ah Chuan has 9.7 yuan in deposit with me. I know all the money that your brothers and sisters have spent. When they can earn money, let them pay it back themselves."

Lu Jiuchuan glanced at Luo Qianyu and said anxiously:

"Mom, you don't have to be so calculating."

But she ignored him, counted the money and counted it again.

Continue to say:

"The work points I earn from working are not enough to support their education. I will inevitably need your help in the future. I have to make this clear."

"I'll keep a careful note of how much they spent. I'll tell them how much the prices have gone up, and when the time comes I'll make them pay back."

"As the old saying goes, brothers should settle accounts clearly so as not to become enemies."

"You can move out if you want, but according to the rules, the elderly follow the eldest, and I have to help look after the two children. My suggestion is to wait two years before moving. See what you think."

Finally, she thought for a moment and added:

"It depends on Ayu's opinion. I've suffered from a mean mother-in-law before, and I can't stand the quarrels between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law every day. Just say what you want to say. We value democracy in our family."

Her words moved Luo Qianyu.

It is not easy to meet such an open-minded mother-in-law at any time.

But what Luo Qianyu was more concerned about was, after she took out this money, how much would she have left?

There was apparently very little left in the small cloth bag.

"Mom, my third brother and Siman have to pay tuition soon, and my second brother needs to prepare money for the college entrance examination. Can we afford it?"

"Lu Jiuchuan married me and went to the city to buy things and hold a wedding banquet. It cost at least several hundred yuan. This..."

Zhang Guifen waved her hand indifferently:

"How can you marry a wife without spending money? You have to spend what you need. When your father married me, he not only emptied his family's savings, but also borrowed money."

"Our family still has more than ten dollars left for your wedding. Besides, there is also a little over twenty dollars in gift money."

"It's enough to pay for school tuition for now. If you don't have enough money, go earn more."

After hearing this, Luo Qianyu was completely stunned.

So, Lu Jiuchuan and his mother-in-law almost lost all their wealth in order to marry her?
